When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase

Zhou Chengchen’s cheeks were as red as ripe apples at this moment, yet there wasn’t a trace of embarrassment in her eyes, she just looked at Xi Siyan and smiled.

Xi Siyan felt his heart pounding in his chest, as if it was about to burst.

Just when Xi Siyan couldn’t resist the impulse inside, wanting to hold Zhou Chengchen in his arms, he heard Zhou Chengchen speak: "Xi, fair is fair, do you want to kiss me too?"

In an instant, Xi Siyan’s impulse spread like fireworks exploding across the sky. Despite still wanting to, he restrained himself after all.

He reached out to mess Zhou Chengchen’s hair, then spoke: "Zhou, modesty."

"What is modesty? Can you eat it?"

Xi Siyan: "..."

Zhou Chengchen just said that casually. Her feelings were very simple, she liked being close to Xi Siyan, but it was merely an instinctive reaction from liking someone.

If you really had to say there was anything more, Zhou Chengchen didn’t have it yet.

The feelings at that age, regardless of right or wrong, were certainly the purest. Liking that person, seeing that person, talking to that person, was already the greatest happiness.

Next, of course, was to continue with the fireworks.

Zhou Chengchen had bought a lot, but fireworks were set off quickly, and in no time, the fireworks they had bought were finished. The two of them walked slowly along the embankment, admiring other people’s fireworks.

When they reached the roadside ready to catch a cab back, Xi Siyan finally spoke: "Do you want me to take you back?"

On such a day, such a night, Zhou Chengchen was hardly willing to go back, she immediately shook her head: "Let’s stay up until midnight, wait for the New Year?"

Xi Siyan knew it wasn’t right, but they had done many things they shouldn’t already, and today he couldn’t say a single word of refusal.

Thus, the two of them returned to Xi Siyan’s place and turned on the computer to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

Xi Siyan’s computer was a birthday gift from Mrs. An last year. He had declined for a long time but couldn’t insist. Although it was too valuable for him, Xi Siyan wouldn’t feel pretentious thinking they were pitying or sympathizing with him.

He simply remembered their kindness in his heart, knowing that he would have the capability to repay it one day.

Perhaps they were hungry again after going out, Zhou Chengchen started eating upon returning, casually heating up two dishes and treating them as snacks, eating and drinking all the while.

When Xi Siyan finished tidying up the living room and kitchen, he returned to find Zhou Chengchen had already consumed more than half a bottle of red wine.

His eyebrows furrowed instantly, yet looking at her, she was still focused on the computer, occasionally laughing heartily along with the skits.

Xi Siyan was astonished. The alcohol content of red wine is considerably higher than that of beer, and she drank so much, yet she was not drunk?

Nonetheless, Xi Siyan decisively took away her glass, replacing it with a glass of plain water.

Evidently, Xi Siyan was not very knowledgeable about wine. When drinking red wine, you usually don’t feel much, but its aftereffects are not to be underestimated.

He had just sat beside Zhou Chengchen for a short while when suddenly a weight fell upon his shoulder, as the computer screen happened to show the host starting the countdown.

Xi Siyan turned his head to look at the person next to him, Zhou Chengchen’s face was flushed, her eyes shut tight, she had evidently fallen asleep.

"Hey..."

Xi Siyan nudged her.

No response.

"Cheng Chen?"

Still no response.
