e in love.After he left, I was even more clueless about the taste of life.Even though he knew he was insignificant to the other, like a grain of sand in the vast ocean or a speck of dust in the univer...The boss eagerly promoted the adult products from his century-old store, and I was so embarrassed that my face flushed red as I repeatedly refused. Jiang Qiyun stood beside me calmly, with an expressionless face, as if it had nothing to do with him.

He always does this, too lazy to explain himself. He's so stingy with words towards me, and even more indifferent towards others.

My brother laughed hysterically, clutching his stomach and squatting on the ground as he laughed and wiped away tears.

I was so frustrated that I had nowhere to vent. I could only yell at my brother: "Mu Yunfan! If you laugh again, I won't give you any food!"

This is the only thing I could threaten my brother with, he laughed, wiping away his tears, stood up and walked over to me.

"Boss, if you were selling sheets, my sister would definitely patronize your business." My brother said to the bearded boss, putting his arm around my shoulder.

"Huh Bed sheets" the bearded boss didn't understand.

"My sister and her husband have to wash the sheets after they do it every time, you know So you don't need all this stuff! Next time bring some sheets instead." My brother said with a smirk.

I raised my hand to strike him, but he immediately changed the subject and asked the boss, "But do you have any of those yang-extending medicines that are good for living people Give me some."

"What" I exclaimed, startled. "Brother, you're using it!"

The little bearded boss also widened his eyes: "Little brother, I don't see any ghost energy in you. You should not have a spirit wife, so what are you here for"

My brother smiled calmly and waved his hand, saying: "Just ignore it, this is a guest's privacy. Do you have any If you do, bring me some."

I watched him go with the boss to pick up things, and I sighed helplessly and stepped aside.

I'll probably never be able to be a businessman. My face is too thin, and I'm tongue-tied.

However, speaking of being tongue-tied, my friend Jiang Qiyun is the epitome of a man of few words. When he scolds me, he can be quite fierce, but when facing others, he's too lazy even to glance at them.

"You're not angry" I asked quietly.

Anyone who is questioned about being sick or needing special medication would feel embarrassed, wouldn't they After all, this is a private matter.

Jiang Qiyun coldly countered, "Why are you angry"

"As expected of the Emperor, your cultivation is so impressive"

He glanced at me, a cryptic smile playing on his lips: "...You know you do."

I...

When it was time to pay, my brother reached out and stroked the tip of my ear. "Come on, Xiao Qiao, you're still shy What's there to be shy about..."

I glanced at Jiang Qiyun. This guy is the culprit who made my ears burn, alright!

As I was about to leave Xishi Market, a man in a black wool coat and a black hat with sunglasses suddenly walked towards me.

I instinctively ducked towards Jiang Qiyun, but the man leaned in closer.

On the street, speaking out loud can damage one's yang energy. None of us dared to ask the other person anything. My brother, quick-witted as ever, reached out and pushed him aside, signaling for him to keep his distance.

The man gave a sheepish smile, raised his hand to take off his sunglasses and winked at me. It turned out to be Master Situ Lin, the young master of the Situ family.

No wonder I thought that SUV looked familiar before, it's his.

He gestured for us to go into a shop on the side of the road. After closing the door, he smiled and said, "Two gentlemen, it's been a long time."

"Not that long, just a few days," my brother complained.

"How did you get here" Situ Lin's area of activity was mostly in the imperial capital. How did he end up in our city

"Well, there are some things to take care of here recently." He smiled at me: "Miss Qiao, you look very well. I was worried that you might be feeling stressed and down."

I smiled and shook my head. "I'm fine, thanks for asking."

Sistopher smiled and turned to my brother, "You still owe me a meal from last time, right"

My brother laughed: “Alright, but you have to ask Xiao Qiao first. She’s the one who cooks. Otherwise, I can only take you out to eat.”

Si Tu Lin looked at me, as if seeking my opinion. I was a bit embarrassed, but I couldn't go against my brother's face. After all, it was my brother who said he was coming to eat at home.

"Welcome, Young Master Situ, to my humble abode," I said with a smile.

"Alright, I'll come back in two days."

Seeing him leave in a hurry with several people, my brother scoffed and said, "Look at how many cool guys he has. They're all dressed in black suits and look so well-trained. Now look at our guys. Big Treasure is that skinny stick figure, and Old Chen looks like a creepy old man!"

》》》

On my way home, I realized that my older brother had promised Mr. Chen eight thousand yuan every month. His daily job was to clean the sanitation, tidy up the yard, wash the car, and so on. My brother didn't want me to do these chores.

But even a cleaning lady would be better than this old man! My brother shook his head and said that our family was special after all. Although Old Chen was a quack, he at least knew how to do things and could be ordered around.

By the time they got home, it was already madrugada. Jiang Qiyun murmured drowsily, "Go to sleep, I'll deal with you tomorrow."

This made me tremble with fear. What else could he possibly do to me

I had just drifted off to sleep when I felt him on top of me again. Wasn't he supposed to be letting me get some rest

Before I could even drift off, he changed his mind and didn't want me to sleep I couldn't help but reach up and push his shoulder a couple of times in protest.

"Don't move." His voice was low, a breath of icy air against my ear, sending a tingle down my spine.

“Didn’t you say I should go to sleep” I couldn't help but complain. If he kept this up, I figured I'd be asleep until dinner before I could relax.

He remained silent for a moment, his forehead pressed against my shoulder. Was this his "compromise" I hugged his head vaguely, whatever. As long as you don't torment me, bite however you want.

Drowsiness and numbness intertwined, preventing me from sleeping yet keeping my eyes shut. I could feel the icy touch of his lips lingering on my skin, releasing for a second only to be replaced by another bite.

And his icy fingers traced symbols on my chest. I closed my eyes and shrunk back, mumbling in a daze, "What are you doing..."

"It's nothing." He leaned in, silencing my question with his lips.

Before I could even get a good amount of sleep, my phone started buzzing incessantly. I couldn't open my eyes and just reached out blindly. When I did, I heard Jiang Qiyun’s cold voice say, "Hello."

I yawned and strained to open my eyes, seeing Jiang Qiyun sitting up straight, holding my phone and listening intently.

This person just eavesdrops on my phone call... Ah, whatever, let me sleep for a while longer.

I gave up struggling and turned over, hugging the blanket and continuing to sleep.

Jiang Qiyun listened to the other end of the phone talking in a flurry, finally replied with a deep: Good.

When I woke up, he was gone. That's when it hit me that he had answered my call today and just said, "Okay."

Whom did he promise

I quickly picked up the phone and checked the records. Early this morning, there was only a call from Song Wei. What did he promise Song Wei I immediately called back -."It's not cold, of course it's not cold when you're clinging to me, I'm even a little hot.I don't know what it was, but when I held him in the water, I felt like my body was heating up as if I was in...
