Boyfriend's passive-aggressive behavior, she turns the tables and makes him her backup option.

Si Nian almost laughed in anger when she heard his somewhat roguish words.

Before she could even protest, her lips were precisely captured. Xie Jingyao took her lips in his mouth, pried open her teeth, and kissed her forcefully and aggressively.

"Ugh..." Si Nian was forced to tilt her head back, her chin was grabbed by a large hand, making it impossible for her to escape.

As their lips met, Xie Jingyao's warm breath briefly cleared Si Nian's mind.

By the time she came to her senses, Xie Jingyao's hand had already wandered inside her collar.

Si Nian used her hands and feet to push against him, creating distance between them.

"I already told you, my period isn't over yet."

"Just a kiss." Xie Jingyao curled his lips, which were still damp with moisture.

Then, in front of Si Nian, he licked the corner of his lips.

Seeing his naturally arousing nature, Si Nian quickly pushed him away with her hands and feet.

She leaned against the back of the sofa, which made it easy for her to get support.

Xie Jingyao's lower abdomen was "stepped" on by her foot. After feeling her strength, he did not retreat, but instead deliberately pushed forward.

Xie Jingyao grabbed her ankle and rubbed it against his body. "Is that all the strength you have?"

Si Nian kicked Xie Jingyao hard with her foot and then forcefully broke free of his grip on her ankle.

Her ears turned red as she cursed, "You're a pervert!"

"hiss."

Xie Jingyao gasped, his brows furrowing. He leaned on the sofa, seemingly hurt by Si Nian's kick.

"I think you're trying to cripple me."

"Are you... are you alright? I didn't mean to."

Si Nian didn't know if it was because of that kick that had just hit his vital spot by accident.

Seeing his solemn expression, Si Nian couldn't help but feel nervous.

She leaned closer to Xie Jingyao and asked, "Should we go to the hospital to get it checked out?"

Hearing Xie Jingyao's muffled laughter, Si Nian looked up and met his amused smile. She couldn't help but punch him hard in the leg.

"You're teasing me again."

"Ouch, you're using all your strength on me, why don't you just beat me to death?"

"I'd love to beat you to death, but murderers pay with their lives." Si Nian picked up a cushion from the side and threw it at him.

Xie Jingyao sat back on the sofa and caught her cushion.

"Could you please put some clothes on?" Si Nian looked at him naked and really didn't know where to look.

Xie Jingyao retorted confidently, "My clothes smelled bad in the kitchen. How am I supposed to wear them after I shower?"

"I'll go get you something."

Si Nian got up and went to Zhou Huaisheng's bedroom, where she took a shirt and shorts from his closet.

When she came out and handed it to Xie Jingyao, he didn't even look at it and said, "Do you think I would wear another man's secondhand clothes?"

"That's still better than you being naked."

Xie Jingyao glanced at it with disgust, "What kind of taste is this? It's hideous."

"These aren't Lin Tinghan's clothes; they belong to my brother."

"Oh." Xie Jingyao put the clothes aside. "Then I don't want to wear them either."

"..."

Si Nian took the clothes and put them on him.

Xie Jingyao let her do as she pleased.

After putting on her shirt, Si Nian threw her pants at him, "Put your own pants on, hurry up."

Xie Jingyao grabbed the clothes and put them on casually. "I'll have to take them off later anyway, why do you want me to put them on now?"

"I'm not used to seeing you naked in front of me."

"You've watched it quite a lot before."

Xie Jingyao stood up and straightened his pants. "Are you satisfied now?"

"Um."

Xie Jingyao pulled Si Nian into a half-hug embrace. "Want to see a movie?"

"If you want to see it, then release it."

Si Nian turned on the TV, and Xie Jingyao cast a zombie movie to the screen.

Looking at the corpses scattered all over the ground and the screen covered in blood, Si Nian didn't want to watch anymore.

She was scrolling through her phone with her head down, while Xie Jingyao lay beside her, watching intently.

He had one arm around Si Nian and the other holding a cushion, when he suddenly asked, "If a zombie outbreak really happens one day, would you rather be a zombie or a human?"

"Zombies."

Why?

"Zombies can chase after people and devour them, so you don't have to worry about being tricked by others."

Xie Jingyao shook his head repeatedly, his gaze remaining fixed on the television screen.

Seeing his serious expression, Si Nian suddenly yelled in his ear, "I'll bite you first!"

Xie Jingyao slapped her on the butt. "You naughty thing."
