Xu Jiaojiao nodded. “Of course. You’re not going back on your word, are you?”

Before she could finish speaking, the familiar smell of pine washed over her.

Her voice was cut short.

The next second, a scalding kiss landed on the corner of her lips. With a restrained passion, he gently pecked the corner of her lips with a scorching heat.

The first time they kissed was at their last-minute wedding. There had been a veil between them, so she had not felt anything.

The second time was in the car. She was drunk and her head was dizzy. In hindsight, she had forgotten what it felt like.

This was the third time. Her mind was clear, so all her attention was on his thin lips. Her mind went blank.

Xu Jiaojiao’s heart was beating like a drum. She even forgot to breathe and subconsciously wanted to push him away.

Qi Shenbai seemed to have expected this. He locked her wrist on the bed, preventing her hand from moving. He sucked on her lips just once before stopping.

Xu Jiaojiao’s face flushed red as if she had a high fever again, and her eyes were wide open. “You…”

Qi Shenbai retreated slightly and smiled. “Yes, what about me?”

“H-How could you do such a thing?!” Xu Jiaojiao lowered her eyes, not even daring to meet his gaze.

“What about it?” Qi Shenbai grabbed her chin forcefully and domineeringly, gently lifting her up so that her eyes met his. “Don’t you like my reward?”

When Xu Jiaojiao looked at him, she felt like she was falling into his bottomless gaze. It was serious and straightforward, making it difficult for her to say the word ‘no’. She bit her lips lightly. “We… haven’t properly gotten together yet. How can we kiss?”

Wasn’t it only right to kiss after dating?

Qi Shenbai chuckled, his voice filled with joy. “I’m giving you a sneak peek of what it feels like to be my girlfriend.”

“…” Xu Jiaojiao blinked her big eyes in wonder. “You can do that?”

“Why not?” Qi Shenbai let go of her hand and picked up an orange slice from a plate behind him. He then carefully peeled it before bringing it to her lips.

Xu Jiaojiao subconsciously opened her mouth to take a bite. After she finished eating, she could not help but mutter softly, “You’re being… a little too proactive.”

“Can’t I take the initiative?” Qi Shenbai looked at her in amusement and fed her another slice of orange.

Xu Jiaojiao shook her head repeatedly. “I guess there’s nothing wrong with it.” Of course, she knew what his every move meant, so she was naturally very happy.

Qi Shenbai looked at her and waited quietly for her to continue.

Xu Jiaojiao swallowed the sweet yet sour orange before murmuring, “I haven’t even started wooing you yet, and you’re already going easy on me. Aren’t you a little too easy to win over?”

If someone else liked him, would he fall for them just as easily? Was he such an easy catch?

Qi Shenbai stuffed the last piece of orange into her mouth, annoyed by her unique way of thinking. “That’s why you have to hurry up. You have to keep a close eye on me even after you’ve won me over, or I might just let someone else snatch me away.”

“That won’t do!” Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes widened in anger as she said sternly, “You promised to date me first. You have to keep your word!”

Qi Shenbai shook his head with a smile, his tone filled with exasperation. “Xu Jiaojiao, your brain works in mysterious ways.”

“Hehe.” Xu Jiaojiao giggled. She did not hear the sarcasm in his words and thought that he was praising her.

Qi Shenbai did not explain too much. It was not bad for his little girl to have a simple mind. There was nothing bad about her being happy and carefree every day.

It took Xu Jiaojiao a week to recover from her cold. Although her fever never came back, she continued feeling listless and her coughing never stopped. She was sickly every day and could not muster any strength.

Qi Shenbai cleared his entire schedule and stayed by her side every day to take care of her meticulously.

Pei Yan sent over a large pile of documents every day and dropped by four or five times a day.

Even Xu Zhengyang called in exasperation. “Are you the boss or am 1 the boss? You’re working me to the bone here! I don’t even have a chance to catch my breath, you slavedriver!”

In the kitchen, Qi Shenbai was watching a video on his phone and learning how to steam oranges. He wore a pair of wireless earphones as he said, “I have more important things to do. I won’t be going to the company for the time being. Thank you for your hard work.”

“What’s more important than the company?!” Xu Zhengyang could not help but say sarcastically, “Is my sister going to run away with another man, or have you discovered another side to your sexuality…?”

“My wife, Jiaojiao has caught a cold recently. I have to stay at home and take care of her,” Qi Shenbai interrupted him before his words got even more suggestive.

“Jiaojiao’s sick?!” Xu Zhengyang cursed inwardly and became even angrier.. “My sister is sick, and you never bothered to tell me?! I’ll fly over right now and kill you!”
