Tang Wu froze slightly.
The moment he kissed her, a jolt of electricity surged through her body.
Terrified of being seen, Tang Wu tried to break free, but the man held her soft, slender waist tightly, refusing to let go.
Perhaps seeing through her thoughts, he lowered his voice and said, "No one will come over here."
Their faces were so close that their hot breaths intertwined in an incredibly intimate and ambiguous way.
Even though the temperature on the top floor was perfect, Tang Wu felt unbearably hot. Even her heart was trembling.
In the past, he had always been aloof and indifferent in her eyes.
She thought she would never see him lose control in her lifetime.
Tang Wu really liked the feeling of kissing him; her heart felt like a little deer bumping around wildly.
His kissing skills were becoming more and more proficient, wantonly conquering the territory within her mouth.
Si Yanli also realized he was losing control. Previously, he always felt that everything was within his grasp.
But after developing feelings for her and falling in love with her, he discovered that emotions were uncontrollable.
After a long kiss, Si Yanli finally let her go.
He took her hand and slipped the ring onto her slender, white finger.
Tang Wu rested her small face on the man's shoulder. In the quiet air, they could still hear the throbbing of each other's heartbeats.
"Wuwu, can we take a picture together?"
Tang Wu nodded. "Sure."
The man took out his phone and snapped a picture of their faces.
Seeing his typical clueless-guy photography skills, Tang Wu almost spat out blood.
Thankfully, they were both good-looking; otherwise, the photo would have been as ugly as it could be.
"That's not how you take a selfie." Tang Wu took his phone, raised her hand high, and took another picture.
"Oh no, this one won't do. You absolutely cannot post this. My lipstick has been completely kissed off by you."
As soon as Tang Wu finished speaking, the man posted the photo to his personal social media account.
He also added a caption: The rest of my life is all you.
Seeing his public confession, a blush spread across Tang Wu's bright little face at a visible rate.
"Should I share it?" she asked shyly.
The man gave a low hum. "Of course."
...
When Xu Dai saw Si Yanli's public confession and Tang Wu's share, she felt an inexplicable panic in her heart.
She never expected that she had kicked an iron plate this time!
Just as Xu Dai was feeling panicked and at a loss, she received a call from the legal department of Xiying Media.
The legal department asked her to come to the company to terminate her contract because she had violated company regulations.
Before Xu Dai could even react to what exactly she had violated, a large amount of her past dark history surfaced on the internet.
During her school days, she was a delinquent who had bullied a female student, which later led to the girl committing suicide by jumping off a building.
However, because her family was well-off at the time, her parents spent money to cover it up for her.
Later, she got into a film academy and found a sugar daddy who completely bought out the dark history of her bullying her female classmate.
She thought that incident would never be exposed again—
Xu Dai immediately called her sugar daddy, but unexpectedly, it was his wife who answered the phone.
The wife furiously scolded her and admitted that she had forced her husband to expose the dark history, and that he would never have anything to do with her again.
Xu Dai's face turned ashen.
Upon seeing her dark history, her fans abandoned her in droves, and netizens attacked and cursed her with vicious words.
Xu Dai was facing a severe storm of backlash.
The comments that were originally criticizing Tang Wu were all piled onto her.
Xu Dai truly experienced what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot!
...
That evening.
Tang Wu, Gu Lingwei, and Xia Zhiwan went to the hot spring resort together to soak in the hot springs, and then headed to the hotel for a buffet.
Just as the three of them entered the buffet restaurant, Si Yanli and Xu Zhou walked over.
Gu Lingwei looked at the noble and aloof man and whispered to Tang Wu, "Sister Wuwu, I really never thought you and Vice Director Si were husband and wife. You two hid it too well! Besides, I used to say a lot of bad things about Vice Director Si in front of you. Boohoo, I'm going to die of embarrassment."
Tang Wu was amused by Gu Lingwei's words. "I complained about him with you too. It's fine, I won't whisper any pillow talk against you."
Not knowing what she thought of, Gu Lingwei's face suddenly turned flushed. "Sister Wuwu, is Vice Director Si also that calm and ascetic in bed?"
Xia Zhiwan was also very interested in this question and leaned her small face closer.
Tang Wu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "It's alright."
"So Vice Director Si is just aloof on the outside, but secretly passionate on the inside."
Xu Zhou and Si Yanli happened to walk past the three women. Although Gu Lingwei spoke softly, if one listened carefully, they could still hear what she said.
Xu Zhou immediately looked at Si Yanli, who made a fist with his large hand and placed it against his lips, letting out a low cough.
Seeing him, the three women immediately picked up their plates and walked to the other side.
"Vice Director, I once thought your persona had collapsed," Xu Zhou couldn't help but say.
Si Yanli glanced at Xu Zhou. "What persona collapsed?"
"I thought you wanted to exploit the casting couch with Miss Tang."
Si Yanli was speechless.
Did he look like that kind of scumbag?
Cheating and betraying his wife were things he would never do in his lifetime.
Even before he and Tang Wu developed feelings for each other, with the constraint of that piece of paper, he had never had any ambiguous relationships with other women outside.
This was his principle and bottom line as a person!
After Tang Wu got her food and sat down on her chair, Xu Dai rushed over.
"Tang Wu, it was my fault before. Can you please forgive me this once?"
Tang Wu looked at Xu Dai coldly. She took out her phone and played an audio recording.
The recording was a conversation between Xu Dai and Jiang Fan. When the USB flash drive went missing that time, the two of them had conspired to pin the blame for the theft on her.
The color drained from Xu Dai's face instantly.
She wanted to say something else, but Si Yanli walked over and looked down at her from above. "Stop bothering my Wuwu!"
His voice was clear and stern, and his phoenix eyes behind his glasses were full of hostility. "Otherwise, you won't just face ruined reputation and hefty breach of contract fees. I'll make sure your Xu family can no longer stay in the country!"
Xu Dai's body trembled violently.
She never expected that Third Young Master Si, who was always noble, aloof, and dismissive of women, would protect a woman to this extent!
Tears streaming down her face, Xu Dai left in a miserable state.
She truly regretted it; she shouldn't have targeted Tang Wu.
But there was no medicine for regret in this world.
Gu Lingwei and Xia Zhiwan both winked at Tang Wu.
Her man was simply too handsome!
...
The next day, Tang Wu rode directly in Si Yanli's car back to the city.
She looked at the man driving, a smile uncontrollably curling her lips. "Si Yanli, are you willing to go back with me today to meet my mother?"
The large hands gripping the steering wheel tightened, and a hint of nervousness was clearly visible on his handsome profile. Tang Wu was amused by his expression and demeanor. "It's not like I'm asking you to go to a battlefield. Why are you so scared?"
The man pressed his thin, crimson lips together tightly. "I'm just a little worried that my mother-in-law won't like me."
