Jiang Nuo had previously experienced firsthand the truly bizarre thought processes of his beloved Xiangxiang Princess.
Looking at Si Yan, who was fidgeting and looking aggrieved on the sofa, Jiang Nuo's thoughts inexplicably drifted back to a day not long ago.
Early in the morning, just as dawn was breaking, Brother Cui dragged him to shoot an advertisement. It was for a trendy clothing line targeting young people, and he was so hungry during the shoot that he felt dizzy.
Just as he was contemplating whether to devour someone directly or sprinkle some salt on them before biting, Si Yan miraculously appeared in the filming room, elegant and aloof, wrapped in a gray coat that looked particularly pretentious, and wearing sunglasses.
His appearance surprised and flattered everyone around him. After all, it wasn't a big brand, yet they were honored to have the presence of a movie star who was trending on social media!
Jiang Nuo was also amazed, her mouth watering at the lunchbox Si Yan was carrying. Si Yan had come to deliver the food to him personally!
Jiang Nuo, sporting a trendy and glowing cyberpunk makeup look, devoured two large pork knuckles, feeling happy and satisfied. After wiping her mouth, she kissed Si Yan on the face.
The atmosphere was initially warm and passionate, almost punctuated by kisses and cuddles in the break room, when the young model they were working with walked in, sporting similar makeup and clothes, and immediately said, " Brother Nuo, I'd like to go over the couple's scenes we're shooting later with you."
That's all, just one sentence!
Jiang Nuo watched helplessly as her beloved Xiangxiang's expression changed from shy and timid after being kissed without her consent to a wide-eyed stare resembling that of a pitiful wife who had been abandoned and then caught her mistress at the door.
Exactly the same as now!
Even worse, really, if Jiang Nuo didn't know that she hadn't done anything, just looking at Si Yan's expression, she would have despised herself.
"I don't not want you, why would I not want you?"
Jiang Nuo was startled awake and rushed over to hug the person tightly, saying, "Let me finish what I have to say first."
"Those love letters were just a collection of sarcastic remarks; they don't count. I forgot about them after I gave them to me."
"That won't work either..."
Si Yan was held tightly, nestled against Jiang Nuo's shoulder. A gentle caress came from the side of his neck, and a muffled voice whispered, "You only like me, okay?"
"Take the love letter back; don't give it to him."
Jiang Nuo: "..."
What?! How do I get this back?!
This is a bit tricky.
Seeing Jiang Nuo frowning and remaining silent, Si Yan felt even more aggrieved. A surge of sadness and resentment welled up inside her, and she rubbed her cheek against Jiang Nuo's neck. " Nuonuo... I'm so sad, so sad I feel like I'm dying."
"You and he share high school memories, and love letters offer redemption, yet he actually... actually came back to you."
"Is he trying to take you away from me?"
"No!" Jiang Nuo immediately assured Si Yan, cupping her face and kissing the corner of his lips. "It was just a coincidence. I only met him because I was investigating Zhang Quan's affairs, and we won't have any further contact."
However, fate always likes to play tricks on people.
Jiang Nuo went to great lengths to appease his easily jealous and heartbroken princess, Xiangxiang.
My phone, which was casually placed on the sofa, suddenly lit up, and WeChat pop-up message appeared asking for a friend request.
The two had matching phones, Si Yan didn't think much of it at all, just picked it up and unlocked it, only realizing later that it was Jiang Nuo's account.
The friend request... is from Zhou Yize.
Si Yan gasped, her fragile heart shattering on the spot.
She actually dared to add him as a friend! How dare she add him as a friend! What's her next move? Is she going to keep sending Jiang Nuo all sorts of shameless harassing messages while he's away, and even video chat with him to steal his girlfriend?!
The mere thought of such a situation making Si Yan feel like she was about to shatter.
" Nuonuo..."
Si Yan's lips twitched down, and with a sob, she threw herself back into Jiang Nuo's arms. There was no sign of it being intentional; in short, she was kissing and rubbing against him all over.
He's added you as a friend! What should you do?
Let's just kill him, really.
Si Yan's dark side suddenly emerged. He secretly thought that Zhang Quan had been exposed to the Ghost King's Corpse Qi in the president's office, so how could it have been caused by this jade ruyi alone?
What if... what if Zhou Yize tacitly approved of it, or even did it intentionally? Then Zhou Yize would definitely be an accomplice, a henchman of the Ghost King!
So let's just kill them! That way, once and for all.
No matter how dark his inner thoughts were, Si Yan's eyes were still red at the corners, his eyes were misty with tears, and his long eyelashes fluttered like raven feathers. Jiang Nuo felt not only heartache but also stomach pain.
That damn Zhou Yize.
I just managed to appease him!
Jiang Nuo, her lips still swollen from the previous kiss, kissed Si Yan again, until Si Yan was completely dizzy and disoriented, before finally getting up, satisfied. "The phone is here; do with it as you please."
Then he ran quickly back to the bedroom.
What is Nuonuo going to do?
"Applying medicine... my mouth is numb!"
Satisfied, Si Yan tapped her phone, first accepting the friend request, and then directly recording a video to send.
"Hello, I'm Si Yan, Jiang Nuo's current boyfriend. Please don't dwell too much on the past. Thank you."
Very good, very polite, and very generous.
Si Yan nodded in satisfaction and sent the video over.
Then, check the chat box every five seconds, waiting for the other person's reply.
A dozen seconds later, Zhou Yize replied.
The pictures have a very vintage feel.
Si Yan clicked on the large image and stared wide-eyed.
It's Jiang Nuo, Jiang Nuo in high school. She's wearing a not-so-good-looking school uniform, and her thin frame can't hide her beautiful face. She even gives Qianqian smile to the person taking the picture.
It's so heartbreaking to see!
Si Yan felt a tingling, aching sensation in her heart. She couldn't even be bothered with jealousy, and her eyes met Jiang Nuo's in the photo again.
Her eyes lacked luster, so... lifeless and dull, like a beautiful porcelain doll that could easily break.
"When the soul leaves the body, mild cases result in a dull and unconscious state, while severe cases lead to a permanent coma..."
This sentence suddenly came to mind.
It seems like the connection between Si Yan and others can be made.
He had seen many of Jiang Nuo's roles and thought it was because her acting was bad before, but the truth is that she was already like this in high school.
No wonder Jiang Nuo felt uncomfortable even after using too much Spiritual Power. Unlike his own excessive Spiritual Power causing it to run wild, Jiang Nuo lacked a living soul, so...
While pondering, Zhou Yize sent another text message.
"I didn't mean anything by it, I just found these photos in my album and wanted to send them to Jiang Nuo."
Si Yan immediately turned into a pufferfish in anger.
What are you looking at! Looking at your wonderful memories!
Typing away.
"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it. Goodbye!"
Block and delete in one go!
As for the photos... Si Yan secretly saved them to her own phone.
He held onto this guess, hesitating whether to ask. People have three souls and seven spirits, and he didn't know which one Nuonuo was missing. Maybe he could help find it.
" Si Yan, I'm going to sleep now--"
Jiang Nuo's shouts came from the bedroom.
Si Yan immediately got up, grabbed her phone, and went over.
He first went to the bedside and told her about deleting Zhou Yize. Seeing that Jiang Nuo didn't react, he went into the bathroom to wash up.
