Cheating on her husband's mistress? I seduced her third son.

Su Yutang turned to look at Shen Jibai.

Her male best friend, who had been with her throughout her four years of university, now had nervousness, panic, and an emotion she had never seen before in his eyes.

She knew she was putting him in a difficult position.

"I'm sorry, please bear with it!" she said in a voice only the two of them could hear.

Then she leaned in, closed her eyes, and kissed him.

Shen Jibai's breathing stopped abruptly.

Is this a dream?

The girl he had secretly loved for four years was kissing him at that moment.

The soft touch on his lips was terrifyingly real, and her breath lingered around his nose, instantly robbing him of all ability to think.

But the body's instincts awakened before reason.

Almost the next second, Shen Jibai took the initiative and grabbed the back of her neck.

The kiss suddenly became deep and passionate.

He was no longer a passive recipient, but rather a greedy taker, as if he wanted to pour all the love he had hidden over the years into this kiss.

Su Yutang was startled by his sudden intensity, but quickly realized that he was seriously cooperating with her.

The coffee shop was eerily quiet, with only the faint sound of water and suppressed breathing.

He Xun stared intently at this scene.

The girl who used to only smile at him was now being kissed by another man, her face flushed.

His heart felt like it was being repeatedly cut by a dull knife, the pain so intense that he had to exert all his strength to remain calm.

Under the table, his palms were a bloody mess, his fingernails digging deep into his palms, and blood seeped out from between his fingers, dripping onto the ground.

But his face remained expressionless.

Because Gu Ruyan was looking at him.

The woman who controlled his career and even his life was watching his facial expressions with great interest.

He Xun knew in his heart that he must not show the slightest sign of pain or discomfort.

If Gu Ruyan finds out, not only will he be in trouble, but Su Yutang will also be in trouble.

Seeing his expressionless face, as if he really didn't care at all, Gu Ruyan's heart, twisted by jealousy, finally found a little comfort.

The kiss lasted a long time.

Su Yutang felt the oxygen in her chest getting thinner and thinner, her cheeks flushed, and her breathing became rapid.

She could feel Shen Jibai's still burning lips and his increasingly tight embrace, and couldn't help but complain in her heart.

This guy is getting way too into character. It's just acting, does he have to go to such lengths?

Su Yutang felt it was about time and was about to separate when Shen Jibai seemed to lose control and kissed her the moment her lips left.

She was slightly startled.

Is this guy getting too into his role?

His lips and tongue began to entwine and suck urgently again, with such force that she was somewhat dazed.

The two kissed deeply for a long time until Su Yutang was almost out of breath, her breathing became increasingly difficult, and she even began to feel slightly dizzy.

"Well……"

She pushed his chest again, turned her head and gasped, "That's enough... I can't breathe."

Shen Jibai seemed to be awakened and suddenly released her.

He was breathing heavily, and his eyes, which usually held a gentle smile, now seemed to be burning with two flames, incredibly intense.

He stared intently at Su Yutang, his gaze churning with infatuation, satisfaction, and a lingering sense of loss of control.

Su Yutang took deep breaths of fresh air, her face flushed.

Gu Ruyan took in all of this.

Shen Jibai's uncontrolled kiss and his burning gaze were unmistakable.

That was a man's ultimate longing for the woman he loved; a deep affection that could neither be hidden nor acted out.

It seems that Su Yutang and her boyfriend are truly in love.

Su Yutang immediately looked at Gu Ruyan and asked coldly, "Have you seen enough? Are you satisfied?"

Gu Ruyan smiled and clapped.

"Satisfied, very satisfied! Congratulations on finding such a loving man. Wishing you a long and happy life together!"

As she spoke, she gracefully stood up.

"Alright, I won't disturb your sweet time any longer."

He Xun remained seated, seemingly lost in a fragment of the past.

Gu Ruyan nudged his calf with the tip of her shoe.

"What? Haven't you seen enough yet?"

He Xun snapped out of his daze, immediately stood up, and feigned concern as he reached out to put his arm around Gu Ruyan's waist.

"We broke up a long time ago. Please don't get angry with me about things like this anymore, okay?"

Dressed in a mink coat and adorned with jewels, yet unable to conceal the signs of age around her eyes, Gu Ruyan playfully pushed his chest, saying, "I'll trust you one more time!"

The bodyguards standing nearby silently stepped back a few paces.

He Xun put his arm around Gu Ruyan, and the two walked slowly toward the door in an intimate manner.

He really wanted to turn around and take another look at Su Yutang.

But he dared not.

The bodyguards following behind her were all Gu Ruyan's eyes and ears.

Any unnecessary movement he makes, any lingering glance he gives, will be transformed into cold words in a report and handed to that woman.

Su Yutang stared intently at Gu Ruyan's departing figure.

P.S.: [Let you be smug for a few more days. Soon, I'll be standing before you again in a position you'd never expect!]

Shen Jibai's gaze was still fixed on her face, carrying the lingering warmth and affection.

But he quickly composed himself and adopted his usual tone.

"Tangtang, did I do a good job acting just now?"

Su Yutang turned to look at him.

She raised her hand, her fingertips gently brushing against his lower lip, wiping away the ambiguous moisture.

"That was fantastic! I never knew you were such a good kisser!"

Shen Jibai's breath hitched slightly.

Only he knew that his so-called kissing skills were nothing more than kissing her a thousand times in his dreams, over and over again, in countless late nights!

Shen Jibai took Su Yutang home and then prepared a sumptuous dinner for her.

Suddenly, a torrential downpour began outside the window, accompanied by thunder and lightning that occasionally tore through the night sky.

After the meal.

Su Yutang looked around the large, empty house, which was rather desolate, walked to the window, and gently tugged at Shen Jibai's hand.

"Ji Bai, stay and sleep with me tonight!"

Her voice was soft, with a hint of dependence.

"The house is too big, and it's thundering outside. I'm a little scared to be alone."

Shen Jibai's body stiffened slightly.

Sleep with her!

She said those words more than once, but each time it was agonizing for him.

He was an ordinary man, and with his beloved girl lying beside him, he didn't know how far he could restrain himself.

"Boom—"

Another clap of thunder rang out, and Su Yutang subconsciously shrank her shoulders.

Shen Jibai knew Su Yutang was afraid of thunder, and his hesitation was instantly overcome by his heartache. He took a deep breath and replied in a low voice, "Okay!"

"It's so great to have a best friend!"

Su Yutang spoke in a light tone, then turned and walked towards the bathroom.

"I'm going to take a shower first. You wait for me in bed."

She didn't mean anything by it; deep down, she only considered Shen Jibai her best friend.

But when these words reached Shen Jibai's ears, they struck him like a thunderbolt.
