Even though Nie Xi was not being gentle as he kneaded her, Yun Zhi Yue still felt relaxed. The comfort of the warm bath and the sense of psychological safety quickly lulled her to sleep.
Listening to Yun Zhi Yue's even breathing, Nie Xi raised an eyebrow. Was she really so trusting of him that she could fall asleep like this? He himself didn’t even fully trust his own capabilities.
As he observed Yun Zhi Yue’s flushed face, warmed by the steam, he murmured to himself, "What am I to you?"
In such a short time of knowing each other, she had let her guard down so completely. Who would believe that they had no ties? But he had no memories, and the three siblings didn’t seem inclined to elaborate on their relationship.
When his grandfather found him, it was clear that he had already understood Nie Xi's condition. Knowing that medical science could offer no salvation, he sought out some practitioners of mysticism as a last resort. Given Guo Zongsi's status, it was unlikely that he would consult a fraud, yet all the practitioners said the same thing: his fate was too precious; whoever calculated it would die.
His grandfather didn’t believe them and sought many others; some remained silent while others suggested seeking someone more capable. Eventually, someone proposed finding a hermit who didn’t offer any guarantees but provided the address of Yun Family’s Sister Three, suggesting there might be a slim chance of hope.
Nie Xi hadn’t taken it seriously at the time; he had little desire to live then, but he couldn’t resist his grandfather’s sorrowful eyes. He knew who truly cared for him and ended up coming to Yuan Cheng alone.
He hadn’t held much hope, yet unexpectedly, without even seeing her face—only catching a glimpse of her sweeping figure—he suddenly longed to hold her close and indulge in his desires.
Having tasted Yun Yue Shi’s blood, his complexion had already taken on a rosy hue as he turned over and leaned in closer.
Yun Zhi Yue woke up feeling threatened and instinctively tried to retreat. However, Nie Xi held her waist firmly in place. "Be good; otherwise, I really might go through with it."
Water splashed over the edge of the bathtub and flowed onto the floor.
As they stepped out, Yun Zhi Yue felt as if the skin around her thighs had grown thinner.
She didn’t know whether to be angry or amused. It frustrated her that despite his lack of previous memories, he could act so excessively towards her in such a short time. Yet she found it amusing because without those memories, Nie Xi only pushed boundaries lightly; if it were the old him, this kind of bathroom encounter would never end without her begging for mercy.
Each version of him had a different temperament, but they were all refreshingly unique. If this continued, she would inevitably become a heartbreaker because she was being spoiled by his attention.
Faced with his unchanging physique, she probably wouldn’t find much interest anymore.
Nie Xi naturally continued to sleep on the third floor and likely had no plans to come down anytime soon.
Early the next morning, Yun Zhi Yue went to work as usual, while Nie Xi accompanied Yue Shi to the research institute, claiming they were studying medication to treat Nie Xi's condition and conducting experiments on-site. Nie Xi, being treated like a lab mouse, showed no reluctance and obediently followed Yue Shi. Before parting, she even leaned in and kissed Yue Shi on the lips.
Yun Zhi Yue spent the entire morning sweeping the floor, seemingly indifferent to Yun Shijiu, who was trapped in a predicament. During the lunch break, her phone rang right on time. Seeing Nie Zhui's number, a mysterious smile curved her red lips.
A corner of a pair of underwear couldn't serve as evidence, so they wouldn't release him. It was merely pressure from the Feng Family, but with Nie Zhui's intervention, it was naturally not an issue. With Nie Zhui accompanying her to handle the paperwork, Yun Shijiu would soon be brought out.
To pick him up, Yun Zhi Yue specifically returned home during lunch to drive Yun Shijiu's car. Now, she stood by the car with Nie Zhui, chatting amiably.
