Deer Hearing the Flute

At the age of ten, he shyly called out "Sister Jiang," a slender, small boy obedient like a little milk dog. She imitated the adults, kissing his forehead to comfort him.
When they met again, he was dressed in a sharp suit with gold-rimmed glasses, his every move as noble and pure as glimmering frost and snow, unapproachably lofty.
Tearing off that scholar's disguise, he finally revealed his fangs in the darkness.
"Isn't this what you taught me?" he whispered, encircling her slim waist from behind and seeking a kiss, his voice seductive, nearly playful as he called out those two words, "Sister Jiang."
Jiang Jiu only then realized that the other party had long since become an obsessive and scheming mad dog, in a place she knew not of.

Obsessed with My Puppy Boy

Jiang Jiu glanced at the message and replied, "Okay, send me the address."


After that, she closed the chat window and continued working. Her best friend Bai Yiran poked her in a private message, "Gan Xiuxiu is being her typical sarcastic self in the group chat again. Don't let her affect your mood."


Jiang Jiu knew Bai Yiran was worried about her, "No worries, I don't care at all what she says, I didn't even bother reading the group messages closely."


Back then, Jiang Jiu was the belle of Shuangcheng High School and had many admirers, and, of course, many were green with envy.


Gan Xiuxiu was one of them. Originally, she spread rumors that Jiang Jiu got into the key high school in Shuangcheng through back-door dealings, which ended up backfiring on her.


Later, it was also because Gan Xiuxiu's crush also liked Jiang Jiu, she kept playing dirty tricks behind her back.


Thankfully, Bai Yiran was there at the time, so Jiang Jiu wasn't alone.


Bai Yiran quickly sent a message, "Don't even mention it. This time, my prince charming will be at the reunion. I'll definitely dress up to astonish the whole scene, the kind that will utterly mesmerize my prince charming!"


Exiting the chat window, the chief editor sent the interview information to Jiang Jiu, "This is the person you'll be interviewing this time. Take a good look at the information and try to get the interview draft ready this week."


Opening the folder, the man's photo suddenly caught her eye.


His features were cold and distinct, clean and sharp, behind the thin gold wire-rimmed glasses, his narrow eyes exuded a thread of indifference and detachment.


Jiang Jiu hadn't expected her interviewee this time to be him.


Yang Sijie exclaimed in a low voice, "Oh my God, this man is so handsome! Why didn't the supervisor give me this task!"


A man next to her jokingly teased, "Isn't it because they're afraid you'll scare him away? That's why they sent our Jiujiu instead."


The man's name was Zhang Xiaoxiong. Everyone called him Panda.


Yang Sijie, showing her teeth and making threatening gestures, wanted to fight it out with Panda, lightening the atmosphere a bit.


Only Jiang Jiu sank into silence while looking at the photo.


After work, Jiang Jiu's phone rang with a message from Liang Xu, "Jiujiu, Feng Hao is treating us to dinner. We're at our usual spot. Ah Yan is coming to pick you up."


The usual spot Liang Xu mentioned was a private kitchen restaurant. Half an hour's drive from where she was.


Just as Jiang Jiu was considering whether to contact Jiang Siyan or not, a car pulled up in front of her.


Jiang Siyan's handsome face slowly appeared behind the car window. The man glanced at her briefly, "Get in."


Jiang Jiu didn't hesitate, taking her seat in the car. Since Feng Hao had invited Liang Xu, it was inevitable that Jiang Siyan would be involved.


The car headed toward the city private kitchen. Jiang Jiu sat in silence, the atmosphere growing somewhat awkward.


At a red light, Jiang Siyan rhythmically tapped his knuckles on the steering wheel, seemingly in a good mood, "Haven't broken up with Liang Xu yet?"


Jiang Jiu replied indifferently, "Isn't it fine this way?"


After all, he was cheating on her behind her back; she might as well let him taste what it's like to be cuckolded.


Jiang Siyan licked his back tooth thoughtfully and nodded earnestly, "Okay."


Before Jiang Jiu could realize what he meant, the car had already veered in another direction.


The stretch of road here had just been under repair, with only a few streetlights working. Driving under the trees on both sides felt oppressive, which was why there were few people driving here at night.


Jiang Jiu frowned, "Why take this way?"


Soon, the man's car came to an abrupt stop, like a beast hidden in the night, silent yet ferocious.


Jiang Siyan glanced at her, "Will you give it to me?"
