Twenty minutes later.

The two appeared in the mall.

Jiang Nuo yawned repeatedly, not understanding why she had suddenly softened and agreed.

Fortunately, the beautiful women around him were pleasing to the eye, which prevented Jiang Nuo from becoming too sleepy.

Both of them wore masks when they came out, so they wouldn't attract too much attention. In addition, this mall has many big brand stores, and many celebrities usually come to shop here, so not many people paid attention to them.

Si Yan really likes this state of mind.

I went shopping with Jiang Nuo, and after buying everything on my list, I mentally checked it off, and everything was in pairs.

He called it a reward for Jiang Nuo accompanying him shopping.

The mall was brightly lit and clean. Si Yan smiled behind his mask as he strolled around with Jiang Nuo by the arm. They didn't need to carry anything themselves; the mall would count everything and deliver it to their door.

As the rotating elevator ascended to the next floor, Jiang Nuo suddenly became alert and glanced behind her.

There was a man wearing a mask.

Are they fans?

But the look he gave me just now was clearly malicious.

Jiang Nuo glanced at him again, and only when the man looked up did she realize that he was not only wearing a mask, but also sunglasses.

They're even more afraid of having their faces seen than they are.

While they were thinking, they had already reached the upstairs. The big brand store that Si Yan wanted to buy was just around the corner. As soon as the two turned around, half a bottle of liquid was splashed on them from behind.

Jiang Nuo reacted quickly, wrapping her arm around Si Yan's waist to avoid him, her eyes instantly sharpening.

I knew I wasn't mistaken.

Si Yan turned around abruptly, and when she looked up, she saw that the water on the ground was still steaming.

Scalding hot...

Almost instantly, he understood.

" Nuonuo... is an illegitimate child."

No sooner had she finished speaking than the man opposite her began to hurl insults in a shrill voice.

" Jiang Nuo! You're still clinging to Si Yan! There aren't even any cameras filming anymore! How disgusting!"

Seeing that the scalding water hadn't hit Jiang Nuo, the man was clearly very dissatisfied, but when he saw Si Yan, he acted completely differently, even becoming somewhat obsequious.

" Si Yan! Si Yan, I knew you'd come in! I just saw your car!"

As he spoke, he strode towards Si Yan, his voice deliberately sweet, "How come you're with Jiang Nuo again! Don't you ever think about your fans?!"

It was as if Si Yan had committed some heinous crime.

"Get out of here."

Si Yan's voice was cold and icy. She felt dizzy from the overpowering, sweet scent of the man's perfume and snuggled into Jiang Nuo's arms to scold him.

Jiang Nuo carefully protected him, slowly taking off her mask to look at the man who had already raised his phone to take pictures.

"If you're going to take pictures, take lots of them."

Then, with gentle movements, she removed the mask from Si Yan's face and even touched his face.

The man was taken aback, seemingly not expecting that these two were completely unafraid of being photographed, let alone having a scandal.

But such an intimate gesture stung his eyes.

" Si Yan! How could you do this! I've liked you for four years! And this is how you treat me?"

Si Yan raised her phoenix eyes slightly, her tone already very impatient.

Who are you?

He has stated on Weibo more than once that he wants his fans to stay away from real life, but his sasaeng fans never listen.

The man was provoked by the tone and rushed forward to try and pull the two of them apart.

It was at this moment that the two realized that the man was actually hiding a fruit knife on his person!

The store sales assistant, who also witnessed the incident, was startled and quickly prepared to call the police, as a crowd of onlookers gathered around.

Si Yan's eyes flickered slightly, her phoenix eyes darkening as if she were thinking about something.

The man rushed over at that moment.

When Si Yan was pulled into Jiang Nuo's arms to avoid being hurt, her arm was still pricked because she couldn't dodge in time.

He caught his breath slightly and reached out to cover his wound, his hand covered in blood.

The surrounding people immediately erupted in noise.

"You can't kill anyone!!"

"Oh my god! Call the police!"

"Is that Si Yan?! That person is Si Yan! He's been stabbed! This person is definitely a terrorist!"

The moment the word "terrorist" was uttered, half the number of onlookers instantly disappeared.

Half of the filming is still ongoing.

The color drained from Si Yan's handsome face in an instant. He bit his lip, looking at Jiang Nuo with a pitiful and aggrieved expression.

" Nuonuo... it hurts."

Jiang Nuo hadn't expected Si Yan to be stabbed, and now wasn't the time to think about that.

He released the person he was holding and slowly raised his eyes to look at the illegitimate man, whose expression was still agitated.

The man was startled by the look in her eyes, quickly gripped the fruit knife tighter, and involuntarily swallowed.

"Don't come any closer! I'm going to hurt you! If it weren't for you, Si Yan wouldn't have gotten hurt!"

Jiang Nuo laughed instead of getting angry, completely ignoring the blade, and walked towards him, tilting her head slightly.

"If you dare hurt him, you're dead."

That's our fragile yet precious Little Lucky Star!

The man only felt a blur before his eyes, and when he came to his senses, the fruit knife in his hand had been snatched away, and the cold blade was pressed against his face, as if it would stab him at any moment.

Jiang Nuo stepped on the man's fallen body with her left foot. It seemed like she wasn't using much force, but in reality, the man was in so much pain that he couldn't breathe, and his face turned blue.

Let me go...

But all he received in response was a cruel smile.

Jiang Nuo did not use the fruit knife.

Judging from the noisy reaction of the people around him, he knew that this stab would cause a lot of trouble.

But letting him go is impossible.

The pain that only you know is the most deadly.

A flash of silver light appeared at her fingertips, leaving a mark on the man's neck out of thin air.

Jiang Nuo tossed aside the fruit knife, glanced at the onlookers, and the cruel and cold look in her eyes remained.

They were startled and took several steps back.

He still held the phone in his hand.

Jiang Nuo ignored them and quickly walked back to Si Yan's side, "I'll take you to treat your wound."

"Um."

Si Yan still seemed to be in pain, her voice trembling slightly, and she obediently let Jiang Nuo hold her in his arms as they left.

"Hey, you can't leave! I just called the police."

A bystander shouted.

Jiang Nuo ignored him and pulled Si Yan to a fire escape where there were few people.

He rolled up his sleeve; the wound wasn't deep. The fruit knife wasn't sharp enough, and there was a thin fleece shirt underneath, but the fresh blood on his pale skin was still glaringly obvious.

The situation was urgent, and I didn't have time to think it through, but Jiang Nuo is so perceptive about these things, how could she not see it?

Si Yan deliberately allowed herself to be stabbed.

"Is it fun to deliberately get hurt?"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Nuo was not angry.

He didn't rush to stop Si Yan's bleeding; instead, he almost forcefully pressed him against the wall, a smile playing on his lips.

Si Yan knew Jiang Nuo could tell, so she didn't try to hide it from her.

But just now, when I saw Jiang Nuo hurt that illegitimate child for my sake...

I felt an unprecedented excitement and joy.

I was so excited that I almost forgot the pain, and the pain even made this thrilling and exciting feeling extend infinitely.

Si Yan groaned softly, as if begging for mercy, and turned his head to lightly kiss Jiang Nuo's fingers that were pressing on his chin, his phoenix eyes fixed on Jiang Nuo's eyes, their light shimmering.

" Nuonuo, don't be angry."

His lips were cool, yet incredibly soft.

"I'm just... scared."

"What are you afraid of?"

Jiang Nuo continued to ask, seemingly eager to hear his answer, and even after being lightly kissed on the fingers, she showed no intention of pulling away.

There was even a hint of enjoyment in it.

He was testing whether Si Yan was the same kind of person as himself.

I'm afraid you don't care about me.

As if he had received tacit approval, Si Yan became even more audacious, wrapping his uninjured hand around Jiang Nuo's waist, their chests almost touching.

Si Yan gently rubbed his cheek against Jiang Nuo's palm, like a docile and obedient cat.

But the soft pads were only extended to Jiang Nuo; to others, they were sharp claws.
