After being reborn, my sister insisted on marrying me.

The next day.

early morning.

Palm Springs International Apartments.

Lin Siyan's biological clock was as punctual as ever, pulling her out of her sleep at 6:30.

But she didn't open her eyes and get up immediately as usual.

Because she found herself unable to move.

An arm was wrapped tightly around her waist, as if she were hugging a life-sized rag doll.

A warm body was pressed against her back; her breathing was even, and her heartbeat was slow, indicating that she was still asleep.

It took Lin Siyan several seconds to piece together the fragments of last night's memories.

The video was filmed in the audio-visual room, and Chen Xinyi's three voice messages included the line, "I want to see it live."

Then came the staggering moment when he was pushed into Wei Yi's arms, and Chen Xinyi's burning gaze as she watched the scene unfold.

In the end, she didn't know when she fell asleep.

All she remembers is lying face down on the pillow, feeling like her whole body was falling apart.

Chen Xinyi hugged her from behind and said, "Good sisters forever."

Then she cried.

Wronged?

A little.

Regret?

There is a little bit.

But more than anything, it's about satisfaction.

Mentally and physically.

Both are present.

She touched the corner of her eye with her fingertip; there were still some dry tear stains.

She looked down at her wrinkled nightgown, then at Chen Xinyi's arm wrapped around her waist.

There was also the candid scene of the two of them being naked and facing each other.

Lin Siyan was stunned for several seconds.

Then the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up.

This was the scene she had always dreamed of.

Ever since she first met Chen Xinyi in the hallway during her freshman year of college, she had fantasized countless times about waking up in her arms.

Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, falling on Chen Xinyi's hair.

Chen Xinyi's eyelashes trembled slightly in her sleep, and her breathing was light and soft.

She watched all of this from the sidelines.

Now this dream has finally come true.

Neither of them were dressed, and she was being held by Chen Xinyi like a doll.

only……

Her sense of smell told her that she still smelled of the man from last night.

Lin Siyan's lips slowly drooped down.

Yes.

cost.

She paid a heavy price to achieve this scene.

She gave her virginity to that bastard.

Under Chen Xinyi's gaze.

Thinking about this made her teeth itch.

And that bastard whispered in her ear last night, "Is Sister Siyan feeling good?"

She almost kicked him off the bed.

Fortunately, Chen Xinyi squeezed her hand in time, and she managed to hold back.

But now that I think about it, it doesn't seem so bad.

She turned her head to look at Chen Xinyi's sweet sleeping face.

Those usually bright and sparkling peach blossom eyes were now quietly closed, with thick and long eyelashes, slightly pursed lips, and a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth.

I wonder what kind of wonderful dream I'm having.

Or perhaps it was always like this.

Looking at that face, Lin Siyan's resentment slowly melted away.

Forget it.

As long as I can wake up in her arms every morning, this price is worth it.

Thinking of this, she gently removed Chen Xinyi's arm from her waist and quietly sat up from the bed.

The moment my toes touched the floor, I heard a muffled murmur behind me.

"Siyan...sleep a little longer..."

Chen Xinyi turned over, grabbed her waist, and pulled her back into the bed.

Lin Siyan stiffened for a moment, then relaxed, letting Chen Xinyi bury her face in her shoulder, put her legs on her legs, and cling to her like a koala.

She looked down at Chen Xinyi's profile, hesitated for a moment, and then reached out to gently brush away the stray hairs from her forehead.

The movements were so light, as if afraid of startling a butterfly perched on a petal.

Chen Xinyi mumbled something and hugged her even tighter.

Lin Siyan closed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth turned up again.

I'll sleep for another ten minutes.

She will definitely get up in ten minutes.

7:30.

Lin Siyan finally broke free from Chen Xinyi's entanglement.

After washing up, she changed into a light gray turtleneck sweater and dark blue jeans, and carefully checked herself in the mirror several times.

The neckline is high enough to cover the red mark on her neck.

That guy's a bastard.

It was absolutely intentional!

Yes, I can go out and meet people now.

She stepped out of her room, preparing to go downstairs for breakfast.

Just as I turned the corner of the corridor, I bumped into a wall.

A wall that feels warm, dressed in a dark gray sweatshirt, and smells of fresh shower gel and a hint of mint.

Wei Yi.

He had probably just finished his morning exercise; there was still a bit of sweat on his forehead.

He exuded a warm, fresh aura, as if he had just finished exercising.

"Good morning, Sister Siyan."

"……morning."

Lin Siyan subconsciously took half a step back, her body reacting before her brain.

This person is now a walking alarm clock to her; nothing good ever comes of him getting close.

The first time we got close, I was forcibly kissed in a private room at a coffee shop.

The second time they got close, they were kissed at the door of the master bedroom in Zhichun East Lane.

The third time they approached, they offered themselves up at the Palm Springs restaurant to be eaten by pigs.

The fourth time she got close, she took off his clothes and filmed him in the media room.

The fifth time he got close, he lost all his principles last night under his sister's watchful eye.

Every time this person gets close, he lowers her standards.

Now he's getting closer again.

She instinctively wanted to go around him when she went downstairs.

But Wei Yi had already taken a step forward, one hand braced against the wall beside her ear, looking down at her.

"Sister Siyan, have you forgotten something?"

"Forgot what?"

"You agreed to my terms yesterday in the video room."

Lin Siyan's mind raced, and then she gritted her teeth and said, "It's a deal."

"I haven't forgotten."

"That's one of those times when it's 'anytime, anywhere'."

She took a deep breath, tilted her head back, and closed her eyes.

"Hmph! I'll just pretend I'm being eaten by a pig! Come on then."

Wei Yi chuckled but didn't kiss her immediately.

He gently pinched her chin with his fingers and rubbed his thumb against her lips.

This action made Lin Siyan shudder, and she almost glared at him again.

Then he lowered his head and kissed me. It was light and brief, like a fallen leaf brushing against the surface of water.

It wasn't like the aggressive kiss from last night, nor like the retaliatory forceful kiss at the coffee shop.

It was just a simple "good morning" kiss.

He stepped back and leaned close to her ear, whispering, "Nip? I just go straight for the kill now."

Lin Siyan suddenly opened her eyes and glared at him fiercely.

This bastard is getting more and more shameless.

Chen Xinyi is still sleeping.

Sister Shilin is still sleeping.

Aunt Li and Aunt Zheng are in the kitchen downstairs.

No one could save her, no one could help her fight back.

She had to do it herself.

"roll."

She pushed him away with all her might and turned to walk towards the stairwell.

Enduring the pain, he limped along, his slippers making rapid, pattering sounds on the stairs.

She suddenly stopped halfway through her walk and looked back at him.

Wei Yi was still leaning against the wall, his hands in his hoodie pockets, a smile on his lips that made her want to punch him every time she saw it.

"Sister Siyan, let's kiss like this every day from now on."

Lin Siyan picked up a decorative vase from the stair railing, looked at its weight, and put it down.

Forget it, it's not worth paying for a vase for this bastard.

She turned and continued downstairs, her earlobes turning from off-white to light pink.

in the afternoon.

Xin Yi Cafe.

This coffee shop, located near the east gate of Renmin University, is one of three shops owned by Chen Xinyi.

Since shifting the focus to Heytea and Sweet Ice Cream, this coffee shop has basically been managed by Lin Siyan.

Lin Siyan lived up to expectations.

She single-handedly turned her coffee shop from break-even to a monthly net profit of over 50,000 yuan, not by relying on the kind of "everyone comes to drink coffee and it's so much fun" kind of boss lady charm that Chen Xinyi possessed.

It relies on solid cost control and meticulous operation.

She was sitting by the window in a private room on the second floor, with last month's financial statements and supplier settlement slips spread out in front of her.

Sunlight streamed in through the window, falling on her profile and outlining her long neck and jawline, which was partially hidden by her turtleneck sweater.

She held her coffee cup, her eyes scanning the report line by line, occasionally making a mark next to a number with a pencil.

There was a light knock on the door twice.

"Come in."

Shop assistant Xiao Li pushed open the door and came in, holding a new shopping list in her hand.

"Sister Lin, the coffee bean supplier has issued a new price quote for next month, which is 12 yuan higher per kilogram. They said it's because international coffee futures prices have gone up."

"Please put the price list here. Also, please summarize the purchase price and consumption of coffee beans for the past three months and send it to my email before you leave work."

"Okay, Sister Lin."

"Also, recently during the night shift, the coffee grinder next to the bar has been making strange noises. I've already asked the repairman to come and check it tomorrow morning. When we start the morning shift tomorrow, we'll use the spare grinder. The spare grinder is on the second shelf in the storage room; it's already been calibrated."

"Okay, okay, Sister Lin."

Xiao Li quickly jotted down notes in the memo, his eyes filled with admiration.

Although Sister Lin doesn't talk much, she's really efficient at doing things.

When Boss Chen was around, the coffee shop was always bustling with activity, but the accounts always seemed to fall short.

Only after Sister Lin took over did this store truly start making money.

"Is there anything else?"

"That's all. I'll go get back to work now."

Just as Xiao Li was about to leave the private room, the door was suddenly pushed open again.

The person who came in this time wasn't a shop assistant.

Jin Shilin, with her hair tied in a high ponytail, wearing tight jeans and a short white down jacket, carrying two cups of Heytea's new products, entered the room and greeted everyone with a cheerful voice.

"Siyan! My brother and I have come to visit the set!"

Wei Yi followed behind her, also carrying a cup in his hand, and waved to Lin Siyan.

"Good afternoon, Sister Siyan."

Lin Siyan's expression remained normal when she heard the name "Siyan," but she immediately became wary after hearing the words "and her younger brother."

Looking up, I saw that the bastard had indeed arrived.

Jin Shilin sat down in the chair opposite her, pushed a cup of Heytea in front of her, looked her up and down, and then gave her a meaningful smile.

"Tsk, your voice must have been hoarse last night, right? You were even limping this morning, but you still managed to come to work today. Siyan, you haven't been exercising much, but your physical condition is amazing!"

The pencil in Lin Siyan's hand almost flew away.

Her face changed from off-white to light pink to deep red in less than two seconds.

"Jin Shilin—you're talking nonsense!"

"Where did I talk nonsense?" Jin Shilin said leisurely.

"You...you..."

Lin Siyan hesitated for a long time before suddenly taking a deep breath. The redness on her face hadn't faded yet, but her voice had returned to its usual cool tone.

"Sister Se-rin, weren't you even more embarrassed back then?"

Kim Se-rin's smile froze.
