  Mu Sihan looked down and leveled his well-defined and handsome face with Nan Zhi’s petite one.

  Although they could not see each other’s expressions clearly, they could feel the warmth of each others breath combine and dissipate in the cool darkness. There was an unspeakable ambiguous feeling in the quiet night.

  Nan Zhi leaned her head back. However, Mu Sihan seemed to have seen her movement and his large palm stretched out to press at the back of her head.

  His thin lips moved forward by an inch. They were so close they almost touched her, yet they did not. The intimate position they were in made her heart speed up.

  “Mu Sihan, if you want to talk, let’s just talk. Can you not be so close to me?”


  “No.”


  Mu Sihan looked down and bit her lip. His voice was hoarse and magnetic. “I did almost fall down the abyss, though I escaped the danger with my agility. At the time, I was thinking if you would run after me after you knew that the lucky button was mine. What would your reaction be if you chased me and saw that something had happened to me? I really wanted to know.”


  He seemed to be in a good mood. A deep, low laughter rumbled from the depths of his throat and it stirred at her heart and she found she couldn’t turn away from him. “When I saw that you cried for me, I felt that it’s really not too bad. Maybe I didn’t save the wrong person after all.”


  He had wrapped his arms around Nan Zhi and she felt some difficulty in breathing. Lifting both her hands, she placed them flat onto his chest to prevent herself from being pressed too intimately against him.

  Although they were separated by several layers of clothing, she could still feel his chest, wide and muscular under her touch. His heart beat was strong and stable.

  Her long and dense eyelashes fluttered as she looked down. Taking a deep breath, she decided to stop questioning him about lying to her, and changed the subject. It made her uncomfortable to remember how she had cried. She asked the question she had in her heart, “Then…… why did I see Brother Gu Sheng instead when I woke up?”


  Mu Sihan pursed his lips. “I left you in a cave to draw away the kidnappers because I got injured when I saved you. Let’s not forget that you had a high fever and was also rather heavy. After I managed to draw them away, I went back to look for you, but you were gone.”


  After she heard his words, Nan Zhi finally understood the situation all those years ago.

  After he drew away the kidnappers, Brother Gu Sheng happened to pass by the cave and must have spotted her. That was when he brought her home.

  She remembered that the family that adopted Brother Gu Sheng were hunters and he would often go hunting in the mountains with his grandfather.

  “I didn’t think that the ugly girl back then would become like this.” Mu Sihan’s long fingers lifted Nan Zhi’s petite chin. He had an unreadable smile, yet it did not really look like one, seeming especially cynical. “How about you sleep with me to repay me for saving your life?”


  Nan Zhi stared at the man with a complicated expression. She felt all sorts of emotions dwelling in her heart. Shock that he was actually her life-savior, yet she was also sad that he had abandoned her once more.

  Nothing had changed.

  The most important thing that she could not forgive, was that he had another woman in his heart. All she was to him was a replacement for someone he couldn’t have.

  “And if I’m not willing?”


  Why was he so persistent? Didn’t he only want her for her body?

  Mu Sihan tightened his hold on her chin. “You won’t be able to run away from me. Do you think I won’t force myself on you? Let me ask you again, are you willing?”


  Mu Sihan thought that he would not be able to get an answer from her. He did not expect for her to reply after a long silence, “I’ve always remembered my life savior after that kidnapping nine years ago. If you think that I can return that favor by using my body, then take it.”


  It wasn’t as though she was a clean slate, she was no longer a virgin. She was not against sleeping with him, despite the wariness and resentment she held towards him.

  Did he not also want to sleep with her when he forced her to sign that contract initially?

  Mu Sihan’s breathing tightened as his handsome face leaned towards hers. “You really want to give yourself to me?”


  Nan Zhi could feel his breathing get heavier. A sour and bitter feeling spread in her chest. As expected, he only wanted her body.

  “With your personality, you will never give up until you’ve slept with me!” Nan Zhi bit her lips as her long eyelashes covered the dejection flashing in her almond-shaped eyes. “Since that’s the case, I’ll give myself to you. After you do, you can let go of me, and also yourself.”
