Seeing the smile in Sister Shi Yun’s eyes, Xiao Yufan suddenly realized he had been deceived. As the saying goes, “Worry leads to confusion.” Because he cared too much for this woman, every glance and smile from her could stir his heart.
“Sister Shi Yun, you’re not being good at all! Learning how to trick people now, huh?”
Xiao Yufan thoroughly enjoyed this feeling—it was quiet, intoxicating. In front of this woman, his heart felt so serene and clear.
“You’re allowed to tease me, you little pervert, but am I not even allowed to trick you once? Besides, a certain heartless guy disappeared for such a long time without even saying hello. Can’t a sister seek a little revenge?”
Nie Shi Yun laughed, her beautiful eyes brimming with a charming springtime warmth. Clearly, she hadn’t fully recovered from Xiao Yufan’s teasing. Especially under his bold, lingering gaze, she blushed and lowered her head.
“So, Sister Shi Yun, how exactly do you plan to get back at this heartless guy? Are you going to ban him from your bed?”
Xiao Yufan lowered his gaze, his forehead gently touching hers. The faint fragrance of her long, silky hair filled his senses, and a playful smile curled his lips.
Though their relationship hadn’t progressed physically, they were already lovers. Xiao Yufan’s teasing carried no real malice, yet Nie Shi Yun’s face had already flushed a deep red.
“Don’t talk nonsense! If you keep this up, I’ll really ask Yi Han and the others to keep you out of bed for good!”
She giggled, like a girl who had secretly tasted forbidden fruit. Though she was no longer innocent in the ways of the world, when it came to love, she remained inexperienced and pure.
“That doesn’t matter. As long as Sister Shi Yun allows me into her bed, I don’t care what the others do.”
He gently placed his hand on Nie Shi Yun’s back. Though Xiao Yufan had his own little intentions, he didn’t press further. He wouldn’t force anything until Shi Yun had fully accepted him.
“I won’t discuss this with you! It’s too embarrassing!”
Soon, Nie Shi Yun couldn’t take it anymore. She quickly turned her head away, avoiding his gaze, her heart pounding wildly in her chest.
For Xiao Yufan, this was also a kind of torment. A beautiful woman lay right before him, yet he couldn’t have her. He quickly gave up the idea of teasing her further—otherwise, he’d only end up stoking his own desires with nowhere to release them, leaving him to suffer alone.
“Did you have a good month, Sister Shi Yun?”
Xiao Yufan glanced around the flower shop, sighing in admiration. She truly was the perfect wife material. Though the shop wasn’t lavishly decorated, it was warm and cozy. Not everyone had such a delicate, artistic touch.
“Other than watching flowers, I’ve just been thinking about that little pervert. Tell me, do you think I’ve had it easy?”
Her long lashes fluttered as she spoke, as if pouring out her longing. In her beautiful eyes, Xiao Yufan saw a hint of grievance. It was clear—Shi Yun was still upset that he had vanished for so long.
As for the way she addressed him, Xiao Yufan was more than happy to accept. After all, Shi Yun was a bit older than him. He felt fortunate that, all these years, no other man had managed to win her heart.
“From now on, I’ll never let you worry about me again. This time, can you finally give me the answer you held back before? I can’t wait any longer!”
Xiao Yufan remembered how, last time, he had asked Shi Yun to be his woman. But back then, she had only said she needed more time to think. Clearly, she had struggled to accept the reality of his many lovers.
But now, sensing the depth of Shi Yun’s affection, Xiao Yufan was eager to hear her answer—even though he could already guess it.
“If I say yes, will you love me just as much as you love them? I’m just an ordinary woman. I don’t need a grand, passionate love—I only wish to stay by your side forever, never parting.”
Her body trembled slightly as she spoke. Her voice softened, instantly stirring Xiao Yufan’s heart. “Forever and never part”—those words revealed that her feelings for him had already begun to take root.
“I will! I’ll love you just as deeply as I love them. I may not be able to give you my whole heart alone, but I’ll pour my entire soul into making it up to you!”
A sudden surge of emotion welled up inside him. After hearing those words, all he wanted was to pull her into his arms and merge their beings.
“Who let this little pervert steal my heart? If you hadn’t come along, I might have lived a peaceful, solitary life.”
Her finger traced his cheek gently. Nie Shi Yun gazed at him with deep affection, a soft smile curling her lips. Had it not been for Xiao Yufan slowly entering her heart, with her quiet nature, she might never have fallen in love with any man.
“If a beauty like Sister Shi Yun were to live and die alone, countless men would weep in despair! Besides, could you really bear to see Xiao Dao grow up without a brother-in-law?”
At the mention of Xiao Dao, Xiao Yufan winced slightly. He could only imagine the expression on that guy’s face when he found out he had won over his beloved older sister. Little did he know, Xiao Dao had known about their relationship from the very beginning.
“You’re always using sweet words to charm people. So that’s how you’ve won over all your little sisters, huh?”
After finally expressing her feelings, Nie Shi Yun felt much more relaxed. She was a rather traditional woman, and that was why she had hesitated for so long over Xiao Yufan’s many lovers. If it hadn’t been for Xiao Yufan’s sudden disappearance making her realize her true feelings, she wouldn’t have fallen so quickly.
“Why does Sister Shi Yun know I’m a smooth talker? Could it be… you’ve tasted it yourself?”
With a mischievous grin, Xiao Yufan seized the moment of her distraction and swiftly captured her slightly cool lips with his own.
Nie Shi Yun hadn’t expected the sudden attack. Taken completely off guard, she didn’t even have time to dodge. Not that she would have, even if she could.
Since she had decided to become this little pervert’s woman, she had already resolved to give herself completely to him. After all, hadn’t she preserved her body for over twenty years, waiting for this man?
Once she accepted this truth, she began to respond more actively. Her arms wrapped around Xiao Yufan’s strong back, her entire body clinging to him like a vine. Now that she had fallen in love, she didn’t mind giving in to passion just this once…
