I never touched her

"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you?" She smiled.

However, that smile, no matter how you looked at it, felt that something was wrong. He paused for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Then, are you willing to return with me tomorrow?"

"There's no clause in the agreement." She glanced at him. "That's why I refused."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the arm around his waist tighten. When he looked up, he saw his face was dark and his eyes were staring straight at him.

"What are you doing?" She frowned, wanting to break free from his embrace. However, she found that he was hugging her tightly, unable to move at all.

"You must come back with me." he said in a low voice.

She smiled. "Why?" She hesitated for a moment, knowing that she might regret missing out on herself for life, but she felt that she would not regret it if she refused, because she felt that she valued something else more than love.

He pursed his lips tightly, and a stern and unyielding line appeared on his chin. "Because you are my woman."

"Are you kidding? I'm not anyone's person, I'm my own person. " She snappily looked at him. "Seriously, is it really okay for you to talk to yourself like that?"

"Why didn't you come back with me? Tell me the reason." He stared at her, refusing to let go.

She almost rolled her eyes. "Didn't I say the reason just now? Because you are a mystery to me. I don't want to hand over the future to you. This is too risky."

"You don't trust me." he said in a low voice.

She shrugged. "If you think so, yes."

He was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke out: "Ye Xuan and I were purely engaged in business, her family just so happened to have what I needed at that time, and she herself also needed my help, so we agreed on the spot, thus we only had friendship, no love, and even more so, no marriage."

Was that an explanation? She looked at him strangely. "Is that all?"

He nodded. "There's some nonsense about it, but that's about it." After saying that, he looked at her fixedly. "Are you satisfied?"

"Then what about Ye Yun? "You and her …" When she saw his expression change, she did not continue, "It's fine if you don't want to say it, I'm not your person anyway."

He shook his head. "That's not what I meant. If I told you that I can't even remember what she looked like, you might not believe me."

"How is this possible?" "Do you take me for a three-year-old?"

"You see, I knew you would think that, so I never told you the truth." He suddenly let out a rare sigh: "Just like you saw it, she really likes me, but honestly speaking, I don't have any feelings for her, so she is merely Ye Xuan's little sister to me, but she obviously doesn't think this way. I know that she did what happened that night, so I wanted to find her and ask about your whereabouts.

She tensed up and stared at him with her eyes wide open. Even her voice had changed. "What happened next?"

He looked at her with a faint smile. "It seems like you're very nervous."

She blushed. How could she not be nervous? This was related to her man's innocence.

"Nothing happened between her and me." He fixed his gaze on her and said, "I'm not that useless. Don't worry."

"Hmph, what does it have to do with me whether you touch her or not?" Under his penetrating gaze, she turned her head away uncomfortably.

"That's not right!" She suddenly thought of a question and asked him, "Didn't you say that she drugged you? Why don't you touch her? "

If it was anyone else, she would have suspected that some of his functions were not perfect. However, she had personally experienced this before, so she naturally knew that it wasn't very reliable. After all, he had caused her to die many times.

Thus, there was still something suspicious about his words.

He paused, as if he hadn't expected her to ask such a question. "Of course I have a way to resist. Do you think your man is that weak?"

"Is that so?" She looked at him suspiciously, staring intently, trying to see from his expression that he was lying a little.

When he saw her looking at him like that, he revealed an evil smile, "If you continue to look at me like that, I'll take it as an invitation."

Invitation? Invite what?

She instinctively froze for a moment before reacting. She covered her head from head to foot with the blanket and said, "I'm going to sleep."

He smiled at her blushing face, then pulled back the covers and slipped inside.

Her body stiffened, as if she wanted to push him away. But in the end, she chose to pretend that she didn't feel anything, and silently closed her eyes.

She only heard his arms around her as his warm breath gently blew at the back of her head, causing her heart to feel numb.

What did he want to do?

Although she had her eyes closed, her heart was in her chest and she didn't know what was going on.

After a while, he whispered in her ear, "How are you doing? Is that why you agreed to come back with me?"

She was silent, as if she were sleeping.

After he asked this question, he let out a soft sigh and stopped moving.

It was unknown when the two of them fell asleep that night.

In any case, she only found out the second day that sunlight had already flooded the entire room and Si Lianye was completely gone. Looking at the time again, it was already almost noon.

She sat on the bed and looked around the room. Unexpectedly, a thought appeared in her mind, that was, Si Lianye was finally willing to let go?

Did he really leave?

She frowned, suddenly feeling that there was something very wrong in her heart. Shouldn't he be very happy that he had left her? After all, this was a life that she had longed for for for a long time, but why was she so sad now?

She would never see him again!

This recognition surged in her heart, causing her heart to ache. She couldn't help but cover her chest with her hands as her delicate and refined brows tightly knitted together.

Only then did she realize that deep down in her heart, she still couldn't bear for him to leave.

However, it was too late to say anything now.

She took a deep breath, and secretly warned herself in her heart: Shen Xiran, you must work hard and strive hard. Since you've already made up your mind, don't regret it …

She took a few deep breaths before slowly getting out of bed. After washing up, she thought that she should move back. He had left already.

Unexpectedly, after a while, Si Lianye called.

She looked at the name on the screen and raised her eyebrows in surprise. Was he going to say goodbye to her?

She put the phone to her ear. "Hello?"

"My dear, do you miss me?" The heavy thoughts in his mind had disappeared, replaced by the usual helplessness.

"Nope." She said, "Where are you now? Airport? "

He said he would be back in the afternoon.

However, she didn't expect him to actually say: "Of course not, I'm in the company. You stay obediently in my room. I'll take you to eat when I'm done."

She was so surprised that her mouth was agape. "You … Didn't you say... They said that they are leaving? "

He said as if nothing had happened, "Last night, I suddenly remembered that my work here was pretty good. Since you don't like going back, then I'll leave the headquarters here so I don't have to separate from you. What do you think about this idea?"

She couldn't speak for a long time.

What could she say? Was it really good to say that he was rich? To say that he was rich? Rich and willful?

To think that she was sad for a while, it seemed like she didn't care about that at all.

Her mood was indescribably complicated. "Are you for real?" she asked him, not giving up.

"Of course it's true, when have I lied to you? However, because this matter involves a lot of things, I will be more busy in the next few days, so darling, do not worry, once I'm done, I will come and accompany you, be good and find your friends to play, as long as you do not look for Xi Zeer, understand?"

He chattered on for a long time, which gave her a headache. "Alright, I understand. Go back and busy yourself. Don't come back for lunch. I'll go eat by myself."

"Oh right, I've already gotten someone to buy a house. Tomorrow, we'll go and have a look. If you like, you can settle in." he said again.

She felt powerless. "It's your house, so why should I like it? If only you would."

"Of course not. What if you don't like it? That's our home." He spoke in a serious manner, and his righteous words rendered her speechless for a long time.

It was only after she put down the phone and stared blankly at her phone for a long time that she finally understood. He seemed to have come for real and decided to stay!

Even if she did not understand these things, she did know that moving to the headquarters of such a large multinational company was not an easy task. She did not know how much trouble he would cause in the outside world by patting his head like this.

The reason he moved to headquarters was simply because he refused to return with him.

She wondered if they would put a fox's hat on her head if they knew that the boss had so many reasons for it.

She shook her head with a wry smile.

After a while, she calmed herself down and looked through her phone again. She found that the message Zhu Lingling sent her was almost filled up.

Zhu Lingling reacted quickly and called her back, "You, you stupid woman, have you been made dizzy by him again? Even I don't care!"

She was a bit embarrassed. "Lingling, I didn't do it on purpose. Aren't you busy arguing with him?"

"And then they went to bed?" She retorted without any trace of politeness.

She was slightly angry from embarrassment as she raised her voice. "Spirit!"

"Alright, alright, I won't say anymore." Seeing her thin skin, Zhu Lingling changed the topic: "Fine, let's not talk about your bed. Be serious, are you clear with him?

"I've explained it clearly, and I've also asked clearly." "No," she replied.

Zhu Lingling was startled: "That means you have already broken up with him? "Great, tell me how did you manage to get him."

Hearing her excited tone, Shen Xiran faintly said, "Why do I feel that you're not worrying about me, but are just here to watch the show?"

Zhu Lingling's voice stiffened, and then, she laughed dryly: "Haha, haha, you're overthinking things. You're my best friend, how could I be so heartless?

She snorted. "Not necessarily."

After being exposed by her, Zhu Lingling did not dare to continue interrogating her, she gasped for breath, in truth, her mind was still in a mess. If she was told that Si Lianye was planning to move over, she would probably scream.

Having such an energetic friend all the time can be tiring at times.

After thinking about it, she asked: "I feel like you have been rather idle these few days. What, where's A Wen?"

"Don't mention him." As expected, Zhu Lingling's attention was diverted away by her, "He was called back by his family again, this is already the third time this month."

"Is that so? "Then you didn't ask what exactly happened?" She also felt that something wasn't quite right.
