Before Si Moyan could finish his sentence, his deep eyes shrank slightly at the sight in the walk-in closet.
His tall, cold figure suddenly froze in place.
His mind went almost completely blank, his breathing grew heavier, and his Adam's apple bobbed unconsciously.
Wen Yan was equally stunned. Her beautiful eyes stared blankly into the man's for several seconds.
All the blood in her body rushed to her head.
Before she could even react, the man's low, hoarse voice sounded out, "Sorry."
After saying that, he turned around in a flustered panic to leave, his left foot almost tripping over his right.
Seeing his reaction, Wen Yan's nervousness and confusion completely vanished, and she was actually amused.
She slipped on her bathrobe and quickly chased after the man.
The man had already reached the bedroom door when Wen Yan called out to him, "Hubby!"
That single "Hubby" made the man's body tremble again, and his footsteps seemed to quicken.
Wen Yan puffed out her cheeks.
What was he doing? It wasn't like she was some terrifying monster!
She was the one who had been seen completely naked, okay!
"Si Moyan, stop right there!" she called him by his full name.
Si Moyan took a few more steps forward before finally stopping.
Wen Yan ran up to him, tilting her small face up to look at him. "Why are you running?"
The man's dark, deep eyes fell upon her, his breathing slightly ragged.
His Adam's apple bobbed. "Sorry, I didn't mean to see. Blackie ran off with your clothes."
Wen Yan glanced at the nightgown and bra in his hands, and the blush that had finally faded crept back up to her cheeks.
It seemed that during the few days she had been asleep, Blackie had already accepted him as its master, and was even playing the role of the perfect wingman.
Wen Yan looked at the man whose handsome face was even redder than hers. She snatched her clothes from his hands and asked a shocking question, "Is my figure alright?"
[Good thing I've been consistently eating papaya, otherwise it would have been quite embarrassing.]
Si Moyan's mind hardly dared to replay the previous scene a second time.
The woman standing so close in front of him had wet hair draped over her shoulders. Her small face was devoid of makeup, her skin white with a hint of pink, and the faint, fresh scent of her recent shower drifted into his nose.
Incredibly alluring.
He almost didn't dare to look her directly in the eye, a trace of cold sweat seeping from his forehead.
Wen Yan could see the man's shyness.
She was laughing wildly in her heart.
[Ahahaha, the eagle-like man is actually acting all shy.]
[I really wonder how good he would look if I made him cry.]
Si Moyan's deep, narrow eyes looked toward her. The moment his gaze met hers, his mind went blank again.
The usually cold and abstinent man gave off a strong sense of contrast when he was shy and at a loss.
Wen Yan's heart itched at the sight of him like this.
She boldly stood on her tiptoes and breathed softly like an orchid by his ear, "Hubby, do you want to consider moving to the master bedroom to sleep tonight?"
Her breath as she spoke brushed into his ear, bringing a crisp, tingling sensation like an electric current running through him.
Si Moyan's breath hitched; he felt as if he had been burned.
Seeing his eyes darken and his Adam's apple bob from being teased, Wen Yan blinked her beautiful eyes mischievously. "Hubby, you saw me completely naked, you have to compensate me~"
As soon as she finished speaking, her slender, white wrist was grasped by the man's large hand.
Before she could react, he pressed her hand against his abs.
Through the layer of shirt fabric, she could clearly feel his well-defined abdominal muscles.
Firm and elastic.
The feel was super nice.
Perhaps after being teased to the limit by her, he bounced back. He was no longer a shy macho man, but took the initiative to launch an attack on her. "The belt, you can unbuckle it."
Wen Yan immediately let out a sharp screech in her heart.
[Ahhh! Is there something wrong with my ears? He actually told me to unbuckle...]
Si Moyan suddenly remembered that the other members of the Si family could also hear her inner voice. He grabbed her wrist and quickly pulled her into the bedroom.
Even if they were going to consummate their marriage, they had to go out and be alone.
Otherwise, letting everyone else in the house hear would be both awkward and shameful!
Downstairs, Si Yanli, Si Luochen, and Si Youyou thought: It's too sweet, they need to go watch a few episodes of a dismemberment murder case to sober up.
After Si Moyan pulled Wen Yan into the room, he lowered his head and kissed her lips. "Once your body recovers, I'll take you to the hot spring resort to soak in the hot springs."
Wen Yan's beautiful eyes lit up.
[If we're soaking in hot springs, doesn't that mean he'll have to wear swim trunks?]
[Help! I've already pictured it in my mind, I'm totally looking forward to it.]
Wen Yan poked the man's jaw, which had sprouted a faint stubble. "Thank you, Hubby, for taking care of me without sleep or rest these past few days. Your beard is so prickly, how about I shave it for you?"
Si Moyan gave a low "Mhm."
Wen Yan brought a razor and shaving foam from the guest room where he had been sleeping.
Si Moyan lifted her onto the bathroom vanity. His tall body stood in front of her, shoulders slightly hunched as he brought his handsome face close to hers.
Wen Yan applied the foam for him, picked up the razor, and began to shave him.
After shaving, she applied aftershave to his clean jaw.
"This is actually my first time shaving a man."
The man looked at her with deep, dark eyes. "Shave it for me for the rest of my life, okay?"
Wen Yan gave him a reproachful yet playful glance. "Depends on my mood."
The man raised his large hand and gently tucked the long hair by her cheek behind her ear.
His fingers were fair and slender, with distinct knuckles, strong and powerful, like exquisite works of art. Even the veins on the back of his hand were deadly attractive.
[Awoo! Not only am I a sucker for good looks, voices, and Adam's apples, but now I'm also obsessed with hands.]
[These hands are truly suited for tearing my clothes off late at night.]
Si Moyan, terrified that the other members of the Si family would hear, lowered his head again and leaned in to kiss her.
However, before he could even kiss her lips, a pig-slaughtering howl came from outside.
"Ah—"
It was the miserable scream of Si Jingyi.
Wen Yan quickly jumped down from the vanity. She grabbed Si Moyan's large hand and walked out of the room. "Hubby, let's go watch a good show."
After Old Master Si looked at his collected Qi Baishi painting "Four Seasons" in the study and discovered it was indeed a forgery, he was furious.
"You damn brat, your grandfather spent a hundred million to win this authentic piece at auction, and you actually sold it off cheap for ten million! Are you trying to anger this old man to death?!"
After being struck hard twice by the old man's cane, Si Jingyi scurried wildly around the study.
As a result, he accidentally smashed an antique vase from the old man's collection.
Old Master Si almost fainted from anger, forcefully pinching his philtrum.
Si Jingyi knew he had caused a disaster. He knelt on the floor, begging for mercy incessantly. "Grandpa, I really had my heart blinded by lard back then. I promise to buy back the 'Four Seasons' painting! Please don't ruin your health over this and kick the bucket early, ascending to the Western Paradise!"
Old Master Si was so angry that his white beard trembled up and down. "This old man is going to kill you and hold a continuous banquet for seven days and seven nights!"
The authentic "Four Seasons" was gone, and the damn brat had shattered his collected celadon vase.
This was going to cost him his old life!
Just as Old Master Si was about to swing his cane at Si Jingyi again, Wen Yan walked over and grabbed the old man's cane. "Grandpa, how about you let me try to restore the vase?"
