Xu Zhengyang leaned back in his seat. His cheek was already red and swollen, and the taste of blood lingered in his mouth.

Instead of getting angry at Qi Shenbai’s curses, he smiled. “Thank you.”

This was the first time he had seen Qi Shenbai expressing his negative emotions. Now, the man finally felt like a mortal with flesh and blood.

And it was still for his younger sister, Xu Jiaojiao.

Qi Shenbai straightened his tie and sat back in his seat indifferently. “No need to thank me.”

Xu Zhengyang drank another mouthful of baijiu, and the taste of blood in his mouth faded a little. Before he got up and left, he hesitated for a moment before patting Qi Shenbai’s shoulder.

“Happy birthday.”

Xu Jiaojiao had just come out, but she did not see anyone. When she went upstairs, she saw Qi Shenbai sitting on a chair, looking at the night sky with a lonely expression. No one knew what he was thinking.

It was rare for her to see Qi Shenbai in such a situation. Puzzled, Xu Jiaojiao quickly walked over and asked softly, “Why are you here alone? Where’s my brother?”

Qi Shenbai raised his head and looked at her quietly. He was not in a hurry to speak. It was as if he was taking her in carefully. His bright eyes carried a different meaning.

Xu Jiaojiao was a little confused. Before she could ask anything, Qi Shenbai stretched out his hand and suddenly pulled her to him.

“Eep!”

Xu Jiaojiao fell onto Qi Shenbai’s lap and felt the warmth of his body. Just as she raised her head, Xu Jiaojiao felt a warm touch on her lips.

Qi Shenbai kissed her.

Xu Jiaojiao froze on the spot as he held her chin.

Then, her feelings welled up inside her.

Xu Jiaojiao’s face was extremely red, but she did not feel uncomfortable. Instead, she was very happy.

In the silent night, Xu Jiaojiao leaned against Qi Shenbai’s chest and grabbed his collar.

He seemed to have endless magic that attracted her like a magnet. Her entire body became weak as she gently leaned against his chest.

Qi Shenbai panted softly. His voice was already a little hoarse as he said, “I’m so glad”

‘I’m so glad you survived. I’m so glad we could meet.’

Qi Shenbai gently hugged Xu Jiaojiao, as if he wanted to press her into his body.

Xu Jiaojiao blushed and asked softly, “What happened to you?”

Judging from his various behaviors, Qi Shenbai seemed to be hiding something. He was different from before.

“Nothing happened,” Qi Shenbai replied.

“I just changed my mind. I don’t want to wait any longer.”

Xu Jiaojiao was puzzled. She raised her head and looked at him in confusion.

Qi Shenbai’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he said in a low voice, “Jiaojiao, you don’t have to chase me anymore.”

Xu Jiaojiao’s expression froze. Just as she was feeling stunned, the man spoke again.

“We already got together that night, after you got drunk.”

Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes widened. Perhaps it was due to her excitement, but she stuttered as she spoke, “R-Really? But 1 don’t…”

Qi Shenbai reached out and gently rubbed the back of Xu Jiaojiao’s head.

“Don’t you remember? Why don’t 1 help you recall it now?”

“You asked me, ‘Qi Shenbai, do you have a woman you like?’

“I said, ‘I’m a hard man to win over. What if you fail?’

“You said, ‘You don’t have anyone you like. Besides, you took my first kiss. Can you try to let me pursue you? What if… you fall in love with me too?’

“I asked, ‘Xu Jiaojiao, do you want my first kiss?’

“You said, ‘Does this mean… I have permission to pursue you?’

“I said, ‘You don’t have to pursue me.’

“I like you too.”

Qi Shenbai recited the lines one by one. With every sentence, Xu Jiaojiao’s face turned redder and redder until her blush almost reached her neck.

Her blurry memories gradually became clearer, and a sense of shame and frustration surged in her heart.

She was ashamed of her embarrassing display, and she was vexed that she had forgotten such an important conversation.

Xu Jiaojiao slowly raised her head and observed Qi Shenbai’s reaction when he was not paying attention. His expression was calm and composed, and there was a gentle smile in his eyes.

Xu Jiaojiao pursed her lips tightly and asked, “You little… You said yes, then you still said you’d wait for me to pursue you! You’re totally teasing me… Why didn’t you tell me?”

“I’m the one who should be angry here. How could you forget something so important? And now you’re pointing fingers at me instead?” Qi Shenbai chuckled.

“Uhh…” Xu Jiaojiao paused. She had nothing to say to that, so she quickly changed the topic. “Then tell me, why are you suddenly telling me all that today?”

“Like 1 said, 1 changed my mind. 1 don’t want to wait any longer.”

After hearing what Xu Zhengyang had said, he did not want to waste another second. He just wanted to gently pull her into his arms.

He did not want to hide it from her anymore..
