Si Lianye held onto his mobile phone, and her brows unconsciously knitted together. "Mom … "Okay, I got it …"

Imperial Mother talked for a long time, but it was simply because she heard the woman's voice: "You're older, it's normal to have a woman by your side, but you must remember, our Si Family is not an ordinary family, it's fine to look for a woman to play, if you want a wife, you must ask us to choose, even if you want to look for one, you must at least get our permission, you hear me, right?"

Si Lianye's eyes were filled with impatience: "Alright, alright, I've already heard these words many times, do you want me to recite them for you?"

Only then did Imperial Mother smile in satisfaction. "It's good that you remember this, I will not say anything else."

"Mm. Alright." Si Lianye promised over and over again, hoping that her mother would let him go and stop nagging.

"Ah, that's right …" Just as Imperial Mother was about to put down her phone, she remembered something she had originally wanted to say: "I almost forgot, let's go home for lunch this weekend. It's been a long time since I last saw you."

"Eating?" Normally, he would agree, but now he couldn't help but glance at the girl beside him. He saw that she was thinking about something and a sweet smile appeared on her face, causing him to be moved.

"Did you hear what I said?" Without hearing her son's reply, Imperial Mother raised her voice in displeasure: "What, now that your wings are so hard, you aren't even willing to go home and eat?"

He snapped back to reality and promised, "No, no, I didn't hear it clearly. Let's go home. Alright, I promise …"

He apologized to his mother for a long time before snorting in satisfaction. "It's good that you agreed. Remember to come back earlier this weekend." Just as she was about to hang up, she thought about it and added, "You can come back alone."

Was he afraid that he would bring this woman back as well?

How is this possible? She was too careful. Although he liked this girl, he had yet to marry her. His mother was too careful.

He shook his head and put down his cell phone. He saw at once that she was watching him with a gaze that softened his heart.

He smiled and pinched her nose. "What are you looking at?"

When she saw that he had caught her peeping, her face reddened. "I won't tell you." She wrinkled her nose at him and dragged the sheet out of bed.

He was caught off guard by her actions. The blanket on his body was taken down by her, and his well-dressed body was exposed to the air.

Before she could think of what could have happened, she turned her head and caught sight of something. She screamed in fear, "Ah …" "Rascal …"

He covered his eyes as he grabbed the sheet on his body and rushed into the washroom.

He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. If a thief wanted to catch a thief, then where could he go to justify himself?

He got out of bed, shook his head, and went to the other bathroom.

She forcefully suppressed her beating heart and stopped thinking about it. She carefully cleaned her body.

She looked in the mirror and saw that she was covered with scars. She could not help but whimper, "What should we do now?"

With so many traces, how was she going to get out?

Oh right, he still needed to work?

When she thought of this, she was shocked. She still had to work. What time was it now?

Thinking about it, her heart tensed up again. She quickly cleaned herself up, wrapped herself in a bath towel and rushed out, just in time to bump into Si Lianye who just came out from the other bathroom.

"Be careful!" He reached out and held her in time to save her from falling down.

"Ah, thank you." Startled, she stood still and began to thank him.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened.

Due to the urgency of the situation, she unconsciously loosened her grip on the towel she was holding. The towel suddenly loosened and fell to the ground.

"Ah …"

He could see everything.

She screamed and crouched down, not knowing where she was supposed to hide.

Si Lianye's aura stagnated, and she once again felt that familiar urge.

By the time she managed to cover herself with the towel again, it was already several minutes later.

In these few minutes, countless thoughts had passed through his mind. The most important thing was to force her back into bed, then ruthlessly do as he had done last night, doing unspeakable things to her.

But in the end, his reason overcame his impulse.

Her embarrassment was indescribable, and her whole body was red.

It took her a while to regain her ability to speak. She stood up, grabbed her clothes, and rushed into the bathroom.

What a shame! As expected, a bath towel was not a reliable thing. One had to wear clothes in order to do so.

Her face was filled with black lines as she wore her clothes.

Si Lianye had eaten her fill that night, and then eaten another round of tofu. She couldn't help but feel a little guilty towards her, and seeing her awkward situation, she simply went to the kitchen to make breakfast … No, lunch.

After she cleaned herself up and left the room, she smelled a rich fragrance and her eyes immediately lit up.

Ignoring the soreness on her body, she rushed to the dining table in time to see him bring out a round roll from the kitchen.

There was also a large cup of milk and fried eggs on the table. They seemed very simple, but in her eyes, they were his thoughts.

Seeing how good her eyes were, not only did she find a male god who was good-looking, but she also knew how to cook. Even that … It's not bad either.

She thought shyly in her heart. When she saw him take the bread, she went up to him and said, "Let me do it."

If Si Lianye saw her taking the initiative to help out normally, he might really let her do it. But today was different, he suddenly backed off a bit when he saw her walk over: "No need, sit down and eat."

She blinked. "Oh."

Si Lianye picked up two fragrant buns and placed it in front of her. "Eat, you don't have enough time today, you can only buy ready-made ones."

She quickly shook her head. "This is already very good. I really like it."

He nodded and put another fried egg on her plate. "If you like it, eat more. You were too tired last night."

Too tired …

Her face immediately flushed red. What did she mean by being too tired?

She immediately used her eyes to peek at him, only to discover that he drank a mouthful of milk as if nothing had happened. His expression was very calm, as if he didn't know she had said something ambiguous.

Maybe he just said that when he said it?

She was a little uncertain as she casually took a bite of the bread.

Hmm, this bread is really good, fragrant and soft.

She was enjoying her meal happily, but she didn't realize that there was a trace of a doting smile on Si Lianye's face.

After finishing her meal, she sadly discovered that it was already past 11 in the morning. She was already late for work.

She went to her phone with a sad face, trying to redeem her image in the boss's eyes.

She didn't even know the outcome of the trouble she stirred up at Shangguan Zhe's place. If she didn't go to work now, perhaps he would take her for a coward and run away.

"Strange, where did the phone go?"

It seemed like the reason why her mental state wasn't too clear last night was that she lost her phone somewhere and couldn't find it for a long time.

Without a choice, she turned and faced Si Lianye who was seated on the sofa, and extended her hand out confidently: "Lend me your phone."

He raised his eyebrows. "What do you want to do?"

"Use your phone to find me. Mine is gone." She showed him her empty bag.

With a calm expression, he said, "Oh, you're looking for your phone."

"Right." As she spoke, she looked around again. "Strange, I remember that I left it here yesterday."

Suddenly, a familiar cell phone was handed over.

She took it in surprise. "Why are you holding my phone?"

Si Lianye turned her head not looking at her: "I noticed that your phone was ringing earlier, so I picked up a call for you, and asked for a leave of absence for you."

"Leave of absence?" she repeated in surprise, then reassured.

Taking a leave of absence was not bad, at least Shangguan Zhe wouldn't have to worry about running away, but he still had to make a call and explain himself.

As she thought about it, she immediately took her phone and dialed. However, she discovered that her boss didn't seem to be in a good mood.

"Hey, boss, it's like this, I wasn't feeling well last night …" After thinking about it, she still felt that it was better to use such a trite excuse to request for a leave of absence.

In the end, Shangguan Zhe did not think about anything else, and directly asked: "Who is that man that answered your phone?"

"Huh?" She was distracted by his angry question and repeated his words stupidly.

"I say, who's the man who answered your phone?" Shangguan Zhe suppressed his anger and slowly repeated himself.

"Oh, him? He's my boyfriend." Saying that, she glanced at Si Lianye, her face filled with a sweet smile.

He was in bed, and although he didn't open his mouth to pursue her, in her mind, he was no different from her.

When Si Lianye heard her confident voice, her eyebrows slightly raised and the expression on his face still did not change.

When she said these words, her heart was filled with sweetness, but for some reason, after Shangguan Zhe heard this, he paused, and then gritted his teeth as if he had gritted his teeth and said, "Good, very good."

After saying that, he hung up.

Shen Xiran had a baffled expression as he mumbled, "Who dares to make him angry again …"

His mood had always been variable, so she didn't take it to heart. Soon, she tossed it to the back of her mind.

She had never thought that the person who would cause such a big change in his mood was none other than herself!

In another place in the city, Shangguan Zhe was looking at his phone with a gloomy face.
