A secret tryst? Her brotherly love triangle backfired.

Chapter 8 The Second Kiss
The touch between the eyebrows is light and gentle, very tender and affectionate.

A subtle, intimate affection, almost tangible, emanated from him.

Tang Wanwan let him hold her, recalling what she had just heard.

He said she was a girl he had watched grow up, and he had no impure thoughts about her.

Upon hearing this, Tang Wanwan's first reaction was one of relief.

From the moment she learned that Jiang Yanzhi was the 'antidote' to her recovery, she began to waver in her feelings for him.

She really wanted every day from now on to be like today, refreshed and healthy.

However, she really didn't want to hurt Shen Xianyu.

But he said he had no impure thoughts about her.

...So, does that mean he doesn't have romantic feelings for her?

That's why he uncontrollably changed his mind when he later met the 'female lead' in the story.

If that's the case, she should be with Jiang Yanzhi without any scruples, dump him five times, and get her own health back.

After all, she couldn't give up her health for a relationship she was destined to lose.

But now, as he holds her and kisses her tenderly, he doesn't seem to have any romantic feelings for her at all.

“Wanwan,” the hand around her waist tightened slightly, interrupting her thoughts.

Shen Xianyu pressed on, "What were you doing outside just now? Why didn't you go inside?"

"..." Tang Wanwan was silent for a moment, then said, "What can we do? We just came out for some fresh air and happened to run into him."

She pointed to the floor-to-ceiling window next to her, "We stood on opposite sides, ignoring each other, and just as we were about to go back, you opened the door and came out."

Shen Xianyu looked in the direction she was pointing.

The bright and spacious hallway is flanked by floor-to-ceiling windows.

Just now, they were alone here for more than ten minutes.

Even when they reached the door, they were reluctant to go in.

"It hurts..." Tang Wanwan tried to pull the hand around her waist. "Shen Xianyu, let go."

Shen Xianyu did not listen to her and let go, but only loosened her grip a little.

“Wanwan,” he looked into her eyes and said seriously, “you know I’m very stingy.”

He is not a petty or sensitive person.

But when it comes to her affairs, not a single flaw can be tolerated.

From childhood to adulthood, he would explode if she even glanced at any boy.

Tang Wanwan's heart skipped a beat, and her tone suddenly turned fierce, "Don't be jealous of everything."

“…” Shen Xianyu paused for a moment, then nodded, “Okay, I won’t be jealous.”

Perhaps he was being too sensitive, but he felt that the girl in front of him was acting strangely towards him today.

After not seeing each other for so many days, she wasn't enthusiastic towards him at all.

Shen Xianyu reached out and hugged the girl in front of him tightly, "Wanwan, I missed you so much."

“You…” Tang Wanwan pursed her lips, “Didn’t you just say that you didn’t have any… feelings for me?”

She found it difficult to utter the word 'evil thoughts,' so she changed her wording.

But Shen Xianyu still understood.

So, she heard this and that's why she stood at the door and didn't come in?

It wasn't what he thought, it wasn't with Jiang Yanzhi...

Yes.

She'd only known Jiang Yanzhi for a short time, how could they have reached the point of reluctant parting?

I think too much.

Shen Xianyu let out a long sigh, slowly calming the sour feeling in his heart.

In just a short while, he felt his heart was in turmoil because of the girl in front of him.

It's unpleasant to feel that your emotions, whether joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness, change with one person.

Shen Xianyu felt a little wronged, buried his face in her neck, sniffed, and said, "Don't you know whether I have feelings for you or not? I dream about you, but I don't dare to."

She can't afford to have any major emotional fluctuations; what would he dare to do to her?
I dare not do anything.

He even restrained himself to the extreme when asking her for a kiss.

He explained softly, "I said that just because I didn't want them to keep teasing you."

After all, his little girl is very sensitive.

I can't stand being teased.

His lips brushed against the side of her neck.

Very itchy.

Tang Wanwan reached out and placed her hand on his shoulder, whispering, "Don't do this." "...Oh," Shen Xianyu swallowed, looked up from the crook of her neck, his eyes filled with obvious desire.

Upon seeing this, Tang Wanwan instinctively turned her face away.

But he reacted even faster, grabbing her chin and leaning down to kiss her.

This was their second kiss.

The last time was on her coming-of-age ceremony.

Under a sky full of stars, the young man who had come all the way from the capital covered her lips with his.

He carefully took her first kiss.

This time, however, a strange sense of panic made him kiss her a little more urgently.

The moment her lips were pried open, Tang Wanwan's pupils widened suddenly.

Just then, the door to the private room in front of her was opened again, and her eyes met those of the person who entered.

It was Gu Yunyi who discovered they hadn't returned for a long time.

Seeing the two kissing, Gu Yunyi was stunned for a moment, then, after realizing what was happening, he deliberately closed the door.

The door slammed shut. Tang Wanwan was truly ashamed and indignant. She didn't know where she got the strength, but she pushed away the man who was kissing her more and more passionately. "Shen Xianyu!"

She abruptly turned her face away, breathing rapidly.

She looked like she was about to faint from being completely deprived of oxygen.

Shen Xianyu was startled and quickly hugged her, patting her back to help her catch her breath. "Are you alright?"

"..." Tang Wanwan took a deep breath, feeling both ashamed and angry, "Gu Yunyi saw it!"

She saw him pressing her down and kissing her.

The people inside must know they're kissing outside.

Shen Xianyu naturally heard the door close and was not surprised.

He gave a soft "hmm" and said, "It's my fault, I couldn't help myself."

It's especially satisfying to mistake someone for someone else.

But there was clearly no hint of regret.

Tang Wanwan glared at him.

Those beautiful almond-shaped eyes were tinged with a thin blush from his kiss.

Shen Xianyu couldn't stand her gaze, so he lowered his head and tried to kiss her again.

This time, Tang Wanwan avoided it.

She snapped, "Tune in!"

Shen Xianyu chuckled, his lips landing on the top of her head, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "Shall we go home first?"

……go home.

Tang Wanwan raised her hand and glanced at her watch; it was 9:30 PM.

Adult nightlife hasn't even begun yet.

But given her schedule, it really is time for her to go home.

This is Beijing.

She went back to his house.

The two of them will be living together in one room.

Today... no, before this afternoon, Tang Wanwan wouldn't have thought there was anything wrong with this.

But now, she hesitated.

"Wanwan?" Shen Xianyu took in her hesitation and frowned slightly.

“Okay,” Tang Wanwan took a deep breath, “then let’s go back.”

In Beijing, he was the only person she knew.

If we don't go to his house, where else can we go?

Besides, even if she chooses to separate, she needs to make it clear to him.

Ultimately, given her physical condition, he couldn't do anything more outrageous.

Tang Wanwan remembered that her suitcase was still in Jiang Yanzhi's car.

“Wait here,”

Shen Xianyu gave her a word of advice, released her, and turned back to the private room.

He thought he was just going to get the keys, but Jiang Yanzhi came out with him.

He still had that cold, stern face, a tall and slender figure, and a bunch of keys in his hand. Seeing her puzzled look, he said, "It's quite late, I'll go back with you."
