﻿Jiong Jiong You Yao

At age 3, she knew who she wanted to marry. At age 10, she gave away her first kiss. At age 20, she became his personal bodyguard. For her childhood best friend to still run away after all this, what was the point of her learning marital art all these years? The saddest thing to come out of all this was the fact that she was the one feeling burdened all this time…
Five years later. 
“Mommy! How come I am so cute but I do not have a daddy?”
“How should I know? Go ask your daddy!”
Xia Yuxun watched the newly married couple through the TV screen and answered without looking back. 
Half an hour later, at the live wedding that was being broadcasted, a crying child was grabbing onto the groom’s leg and screaming “daddy”. The man stared at the miniature version of himself and asked, “Where’s your mommy?”
Xia Yuxun, who was watching this live show gulped, “You brat, you are digging your mom a hole!”


My Boy Finally Say Yes to Me

"Did I say something wrong? You're a woman, and I'm a man, so of course our relationship is completely legitimate!" Ou Mingxuan said matter-of-factly, then let out a sound and added, "Seems like I said something wrong!"


"You're definitely wrong!" Xia Yuxun glared at him.


Ou Mingxuan looked the little fire-breathing dragon up and down, shook his head, and said, "We're not in a male-female relationship, we should be in a male-male relationship!"


After saying that, Ou Mingxuan put his arms behind his head and leisurely walked out, leaving Xia Yuxun behind, seething with enough rage to cook rice.


The night fell, and the city was lit with thousands of household lights.


By this time, employees had all gone home, leaving the Leng Group's entire building in darkness, including the lavish CEO's office.


Leng Sichen sat in the dark with his eyes half-closed, the cigarette in his right hand burned down to half, the coffee to his left had long gone cold.


It had been roughly three days since he had a proper sleep or meal. After declaring no one should disturb him, no one dared to try to persuade him otherwise, not even to bring him coffee.


The sudden ring of a cellphone pierced the silence in the darkness.


"Sichen, how did the negotiations with Yongxin go?"


"We signed the contract this afternoon."


"Hmm, your mother wants to talk to you."


"How is Xiaoche doing at work with you? Is he adjusting well?"


"Xiaoche has always had health issues, remember to take good care of him, don't let him get involved in bothersome tasks. Also, when you have time, persuade Xiaoche to come home. I'm always worried about him living alone!"


"Your engagement banquet with Qianníng is coming up soon. Is everything ready with the guests and the pomp? Don't be careless! And don't get too busy and neglect the girl. Spend more time with her, go with her tomorrow to look at the engagement dress and ring!"


Just as he ended the call, the cellphone in Leng Sichen's hand slipped and fell to the floor. His other hand gently pressed on his stomach, his face twisted in pain, with cold sweat streaming down his forehead.


His voice was hoarsely sick, but no one noticed, nor did anyone ask.


In their minds, there was only the company, only Siche, only the marriage alliance...


In their eyes, he was always supposed to be the one who didn't need care, and that was true for everyone, perhaps, except for that idiot who would want to protect him. Really, what an idiot...


Xia Yuxun felt having Ou Mingxuan stay for dinner was an utterly terrible idea—the guy was too sly, managing to sweet-talk her dad in just a few words.


After Ou Mingxuan left, her dad made a shockingly accurate comment, "Yuxun, he's a good kid. This time, you've actually got some taste!"


However, Dad Xia always wondered in his heart how such a good kid happened to fall for their Yuxun.


Hearing her father's misunderstanding, Xia Yuxun completely crumbled.


After taking a bath, she sat cross-legged on the floor, lost in thought.


She reached absentmindedly for the photo on the bedside, her fingers gently tracing the eyebrows and smile of the boy in the image.


It was the only photo of Leng Sichen smiling, at sixteen, his face still boyish, looking at a pouting Xia Yuxun at his side, himself beaming.


"Gloating over my misfortune, you jerk!" Xia Yuxun flicked his handsome face in the photo hard, then dialed a number.
