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

Si Nian's body trembled as he slapped her. Just as she was about to retaliate, the doorbell rang.

Si Nian frowned. Who could come to her at this time? She subconsciously thought of Lin Tinghan and immediately became nervous.

Immediately afterward, Xie Jingyao got up and walked towards the door, but Si Nian grabbed him and said, "Wait, I'll go open it. You go back to the bedroom and wait for a while."

"What? Am I ashamed to be seen by others?"

As Si Nian pushed Xie Jingyao, trying to find the right words to make him behave, she saw the surveillance footage and saw a man who looked somewhat familiar.

It's not Lin Tinghan.

Si Nian pushed Xie Jingyao's hand away and withdrew it.

Immediately afterwards, Xie Jingyao opened the door and received nearly ten packages of various sizes from the man.

Without saying another word, he slammed the door shut again.

After watching Xie Jingyao take a silk nightgown out of the packaging bag, Si Nian belatedly realized that the man who had just come to their door was Xie Jingyao's assistant.

Previously, when someone knocked on her door and pretended to be a ghost to scare her, Xie Jingyao had that person come over.

After taking off his clothes, Xie Jingyao changed into his pajamas.

Then he took out the other clothes and walked into Si Nian's bedroom, unceremoniously hanging them in Si Nian's closet.

Seeing this, Si Nian couldn't help but ask, "Why did you buy so many clothes and leave them here?"

"It's all because you wouldn't let me be naked."

"Isn't it normal not to be naked?"

Does that mean Xie Jingyao is just going to keep running around naked in her house if she doesn't mention it?

After hanging up his clothes, Xie Jingyao went back to watching his zombie movie.

Si Nian was too lazy to have any more childish conversations with him, like what would happen if she turned into a zombie.

After washing up by herself, Si Nian returned to bed.

About twenty minutes later, Si Nian felt the mattress beside her sink slightly.

In the darkness, Xie Jingyao embraced her.

"Are you asleep, Niannian?"

The man's voice whispered against her neck.

Si Nian's skin went numb from the shock.

But she kept her eyes closed, neither dodging nor replying.

"You went to bed so early?" Xie Jingyao said, reaching his hand inside her clothes.

Si Nian regretted pretending to be asleep. The soft flesh in front of her was being kneaded wantonly, and Si Nian couldn't help but slap his arm.

"Behave yourself, don't touch me."

"I thought you were sleeping soundly."

Xie Jingyao chuckled, clearly knowing from the beginning that Si Nian was pretending to be asleep.

Si Nian reached for Xie Jingyao's hand, but Xie Jingyao didn't let her. Instead, he tightened his grip on her hand. "Stop messing around, Nian Nian. Go to sleep. I have to get up early tomorrow."

Si Nian felt that Xie Jingyao had the potential to be the one to accuse the villain first.

With their bodies pressed tightly together, Si Nian felt uncomfortable and couldn't fall asleep for a moment.

In the darkness, Si Nian suddenly asked, "Xie Jingyao, you mentioned before that my mother's cellmate's son is receiving treatment at the Lin family hospital. Who kindly arranged for him to get in touch?"

Xie Jingyao's hand on him tightened slightly. "What's wrong? Thinking about this in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"

"I just haven't been able to figure it out. It seems that I haven't offended anyone in the Lin family except Lin Wenshuang. But Lin Wenshuang has been under strict control by the Lin family for the past few years. She doesn't have the ability to reach into the prison."

"Their family members and economic interests are deeply intertwined and very complicated. It's not like you have to offend them for them to cause you trouble."

Si Nian turned around. Although she couldn't see Xie Jingyao's face clearly in the darkness, she could vaguely tell that Xie Jingyao was also looking at her.

"So tell me... who exactly orchestrated this scheme to frame my mom?"

Xie Jingyao drew circles on Si Nian's chest with his hand. "Niannian, is it possible that the person who set this up wasn't after your mother?"

Si Nian's heart tightened. "Who is that aimed at? Me?"

"I don't know, I'll tell you when I find out."

Xie Jingyao's voice sounded tired, as if he was sleepy and didn't want to say anything more.

Si Nian's expression darkened.

When asked about someone plotting against Feng He, Xie Jingyao's answer was not flawed.

However, Si Nian's suspicions about him were not low either.

Early the next morning.

Si Nian was woken up by her phone ringing.

She reached for her phone in a daze and saw that the caller ID showed Lin Tinghan.

"Niannian, I'm downstairs."

Today is the day of Lairui Technology's press conference.

People should start entering the venue around 8 a.m., and the event will officially begin at 9 a.m.

But it's only six o'clock now.

Si Nian couldn't help but ask, "Why did you come so early?"

Before Lin Tinghan could reply to her, Xie Jingyao, who was beside her, hummed in response and reached out to grab her again, half-asleep.
