The carriage was cramped, Shen Wanci being held by Bo Jingzhou, her hand touching his wet clothes, her breath filled with the scent of the storm.

Although Mingming hadn't done anything, a strange sticky and heart-pounding kind of tension filled the air. The temperature inside the car was getting hotter and hotter.

He slightly loosened his grip on Shen Wanci's waist, lowered his head, and kissed her lips.

Shen Wanci raised her hand, standing between the two. Bo Jingzhou's lips landed on her palm.

She tilted her head and gestured out the window: "The rain has stopped."

Bao Jingzhou: "..."

There's another injured person at home who lets out more steam than he takes in. You even fought with him before you came out, aren't you afraid of going back stiff tomorrow?

That sounds like an excuse.

It's still a very superficial excuse.

Having bodyguards at home and a personal doctor on standby, even if things go wrong, we can get to the hospital in time. No matter what happens, it's impossible for things to get too bad.

Bo Jingzhou stared at her, looking like he had something to say, but held it back with a grim expression. He looked heavier than usual. After a long silence, he opened his mouth: "Okay."

The car was eerily quiet throughout the journey. It stopped in the driveway of the villa, and Shen Wanci got out. Bo Jingzhou remained seated, lowering his head to light a cigarette. The smoke drifted from his lips, blurring his sharp features and creating an air of aloofness. His narrowed eyes held a deep darkness.

Shen Wanci stood outside the car, propping the door open with her hand, and asked in confusion, "Aren't you getting out of the car?"

"Wanwan..." His thin lips parted, releasing a plume of smoke. Bo Jingzhou paused for a moment and said, "Go in first, I'll have a cigarette and come in later."

Shen Wanci nodded and went in.

Bo Jingzhou dialed Gu Chenye's phone. As soon as it rang, the other side answered. He was probably playing on his phone: "What's up?"

"You said, why is a woman so resistant to sleeping with you?"

"I don't love you." Gu Chenye's words were sharp and accurate, showing no regard for his feelings.

"...Bo Jingzhou held his breath, unable to recover for a long time: 'But she agreed to be your girlfriend.'"

"Poorly executed."

"......Bo Jingzhou took a deep breath, this time he couldn't hold back: "Shut the hell up."

He must be crazy to ask Gu Chenye for help, that guy can't even win over his own woman, how could he possibly help him chase after another?

There was silence on the other end, and only the sound of 'whooshing' wind came from the receiver. Bo Jingzhou frowned, “What are you doing?”

"Come out and have a drink," Gu Chenye raised his head, glanced at the dark windows on the second floor of the villa, and ground his teeth: "Empty? Come out for a drink. You're alone anyway, you're just like a ghost in Yting Villa."

Bo Jingzhou 'hummed' and hung up the phone directly.

Gu Chenye listened to the 'dialing tone' coming from the receiver, cursed under his breath, and glanced at the tightly closed gate of the villa. He was so annoyed that he wanted to crawl back to the room along the wall and bite Yan Ji fiercely.

He raised his arm and sniffed himself...

A faint, unfamiliar scent of perfume wafted into his nostrils.

At the club, that woman deliberately bumped into his arms. He just reached out to steady her, and then what? She got him dirty?

A video call came in. Gu Chenye glanced at it and picked up the phone with a grumpy voice: "Are you out of your mind? Two grown men, what can't be said over the phone, why do you have to make a video call? Are you short on phone bills?"

The screen displayed a long, bony hand. Though attractive, it was unmistakably male, and undoubtedly Bo Jingzhou's.

"...Gu Chenye paused for a moment: “Do you need me to contact that psychologist from last time again? Maybe you’ve been holding things in for too long and it’s gotten stuck in your head.”

Bo Jingzhou remained silent, waving his hand in the light.

Gu Chenye narrowed his eyes, shifting his gaze from the screen. He almost got blinded by the dazzling glare reflected from the metal ring on Bo Jingzhou's nameless finger just now. Although he couldn't see the style clearly, it must be a wedding ring to be worn on that finger: "Are you and Shen Wanci back together?"

"That's what you guessed, I didn't say anything." That smug and tsundere look was so infuriating it made me want to slap him.

"She moved back to Yuting Garden?"

"Mhm."

Gu Chenye let out a cold snort, "So what? She still won't sleep with you."

"Alright, then divorce won't be far behind."

This time, Gu Chenye didn't provoke him: "Since Shen Wanci agreed to make up with you, she probably still cares about you. The reason she doesn't sleep with you is probably because she thinks your technique is too bad."

He wasn't Shen Wanci, so how could he know if the woman had him in her heart.

Though he is a fellow brother, I understand his thoughts. Seeing him achieve his wish now still makes me happy for him.

Love isn't measured by that kind of thing. A woman not liking you, even if you do it seventeen or eighteen times in one night, she still won't like you if she doesn't.

Just like a thorny thicket.

She didn't like him, and she didn't like how he waited on her.

"......"

Just when Gu Chenye thought he had been moved by his own words, Bo Jingzhou suddenly said: "Seventeen or eighteen times? Did you reincarnate as a tiger? That's such a short time."

Gu Chenye: "You fucking get the hell out of here, and don't ever call me again. Don't say it's Shen Wanci who finds you repulsive, I would be her, I'd fucking kill you, finding you is probably worse than finding a piling machine."

The video is broken.

Bo Jingzhou exited the chat window with Gu Chenye and stared at his WeChat interface. Shen Wanci's name was right in his line of sight.

He clicked in and typed: "Don't you like me anymore?"

After finishing, he glanced at it and deleted it.

If she doesn't like it, should I break up with her? If not, wouldn't my heart be burdened?

No, it's not conducive to future development.

"Don't you like doing that kind of thing?"

It seems she really likes him now. She used to think he wasn't good enough before.

Input, delete... back and forth several times.

Finally, Bo Jingzhou sent a message: "Am I really that bad at this?"

Gu Cenye definitely lied, that kind of thing just is what it is. What does it have to do with technology? Could he possibly make flowers appear out of thin air?

When she received the message, Shen Wanci was drinking water. She choked and couldn't control herself, 'poof' a sound, she sprayed all over the phone screen.

She hurried to the window, lifting the curtain to look down at the cars in the parking lot.

In the car.

Bao Jingzhou looked up, his gaze passing through the windshield and meeting hers.

A few seconds later, Shen Wanci's phone rang with a video call from Bo Jingzhou.

Her face was so hot it could fry an egg right now. She hung up the video call directly and switched to a phone call: "Bo Jingzhou, where did you have another seizure?"

A man's low voice reached her ear, "Wanwan, you haven't answered my question yet."
