“Since we are now strangers, how do you know my name?” He Jingyao gazed deeply at her, a charming and enigmatic smile tugging at his lips, “Beautiful lady, I fell in love with you at first sight. May I have the honor of knowing your name?”

His voice was as low and alluring as ever, especially when he deliberately used such a tender tone.

Su Zixi felt her body, from her heart to her fingers, from the strands of her hair to her toes, tingle with a thrilling sensation.

She stared dumbfounded at the handsome face so close to her, only hearing the pounding of her heart.

He Jingyao reached out a hand, gently caressing her cheek.

Su Zixi was finally jolted awake!

“I… I… He Jingyao, you…” She finally realized she had fallen into his trap once again.

“That’s right, I’m He Jingyao. Now tell me, what’s your name?” The man asked with a low chuckle.

Su Zixi answered with a grimace, “Su Zixi…”

“Su Zixi.” He repeated her name playfully, “So, from now on, we know each other, right?”

Su Zixi nodded weakly.

She felt foolish, truly.

Why did she suggest yesterday, “Let’s pretend we don’t know each other”? Master He’s solution was so simple. Since they didn’t know each other, he just introduced himself.

Then, he could tease and harass her as he pleased.

Su Zixi felt like she had become a lamenting character since encountering this man, regretting every moment.

The opponent was too cunning; she couldn’t withstand it… she thought, on the verge of tears.

“I’m not familiar with this area. I’d like to treat you to lunch. Do you have a place to recommend, Zixi?” he asked with a smile.

Hearing him say this, Su Zixi suddenly realized she was already famished.

When she went to the cafeteria, she was tricked by Su Lianxi into a tea house, and ended up leaving without eating. Then she ran into Master He.

Knowing this man’s shamelessness and cunning all too well, she knew she couldn’t refuse, so she opted to comply.

“There’s a Xinwei Pavilion nearby. Their twice-cooked pork is particularly delicious,” Su Zixi replied, drooling.

He Jingyao immediately looked out the car window, “Uncle Li, Xinwei Pavilion.”

“Yes, Master.” Uncle Li responded respectfully.

Su Zixi felt uneasy and tugged at his sleeve, “Um, are you going to book the whole place? Isn’t that too troublesome? It’s just an ordinary small restaurant… How about you choose a place? I’m not picky.”

“No worries. Since you want to eat there, I’ll make sure you get what you want.” He Jingyao smiled slightly and clasped her hand.

Su Zixi felt a warmth spread through her heart.

At the same time, she grew more confused. Why was he treating her so well just because of that one night of mistake? And yesterday, he said he wanted to marry her, and it didn’t seem like he was joking.

With He Jingyao’s status and qualities, no socialite could possibly refuse him, right?

“Why is your hand swollen?” He Jingyao’s expression suddenly darkened.

Su Zixi snapped out of her thoughts and saw He Jingyao holding her slightly swollen hand. She couldn’t help but feel proud, “I got it from hitting someone.”

He Jingyao raised an eyebrow slightly, “Your half-sister?”

“How did you know?” Su Zixi was astonished.

He Jingyao narrowed his lips. Most of the time, this woman was both foolish and cowardly. Except when it came to her half-sister, she wouldn’t show such a proud expression after hitting anyone else.
