Wei Hongmian took the antique gun out of her bag and gave it to Shao Yibai. The woman’s voice was clear and there was a faint smile on her face. “Yibai, this is for you.”
Shao Yibai was stunned, but he did not hide his delight. He accepted the gift without holding himself back. “Thank you.”
“Yibai, my grandfather previously seized this gun when he won over the state with his faction. I’ve heard that it was owned by the enemy troops’ high-ranking leader. It’s an authentic product that was made in America. My grandfather liked it very much at that time. Of course, no one produces the bullets that are used with it anymore. This gun’s only function is as a keepsake now. It can never rival the impressive weapons that you are currently using.”
As she spoke, Wei Hongmian’s gaze fell on the pistol that had been polished until it glittered. Initially, she planned to donate it to a museum if it was not sold during the auction. She never expected that Shao Yibai would like it so much.
“Let me know if you see anything you like in the future. I’ll give it to you to return the favor!” said Shao Yibai as he stroked the gun. He could not hide his joy. “It’s really a wonderful item. The person who used this gun in the past must have felt really powerful.”
The man was beaming. He held the gun and gestured as though he was carefully aiming it at a star. “Men like guns the same way women like jewelry or bags. We can never get tired of them no matter how many we have. This gun might not work, but it’s still meaningful. I like it very much. Thank you, Hongmian… I mean, Big Sister Hongmian!”
Wei Hongmian had a rather complicated expression on her face. She took a deep breath before an affectionate look flashed through her gaze. This bighearted man was brave enough to express his true feelings. Although she disliked it when he called her “big sister”, she continued to grow fond of the man…
“You don’t have to be so polite. We’re family after all…” Wei Hongmian felt a lump in her throat when she said this.
She had met numerous outstanding men while she was studying abroad for many years, but there were none like Shao Yibai.
He was a resolute and iron-willed man who was rumored to be a violent and powerful force on the battlefield. However, he was also highly in touch with his emotions. In other words, he was well-rounded. Yang Fan was impressed that Jiao Shuzhen had such a caring son who always referred to his mother as “Lady Jiao”. In comparison to Wei Hongsheng, Shao Yibai was a considerate and protective son.
He was bursting with potential as a partner. Although he never praised that girl when he spoke of her, there were traces of affection and love in his tone.
He resembled the god of war when he held his gun, but he was a poet when he removed his military uniform. The apparent aristocratic aura that shrouded his body was faintly tinged with a sinister air.
Wei Hongmian’s eyes were filled with admiration. She desperately yearned for a relationship with this younger man. She was an experienced woman who wanted to savor young flesh…
Meanwhile, Shao Yibai only had eyes for the person he liked. He was longing to see the young woman, Su Qingcheng. He was an older man who wanted to ravish her youthful body…
“I’m leaving, Big Sister Hongmian. Thank you for your hospitality and thank you for the gift.”
There was a gleeful expression on Shao Yibai’s face, and he spoke in a relaxed tone. He waved his hand as he said goodbye to Wei Hongmian.
As Wei Hongmian sent him off, the feelings of disappointment and rejection in her heart gradually grew more intense as she watched Shao Yibai’s figure from behind.
She pondered before she made a phone call and contacted her friend. “Can you help me look into this person…”

Shao Yibai had not visited Su Qingcheng in a long time.
Spring had arrived and the flowers were in bloom at the beginning of May. The grounds of the schoolyard were completely covered in hibiscus flowers that fell from the hibiscus trees that filled the compound. The young woman was incredibly happy when she noticed that Shao Yibai was here. The couple bought some food before they sat on the lawn and basked in the sun.
The sun was not scorchingly hot, it was simply bright and dazzling. A soccer match was enthusiastically going on in the nearby soccer field.
The place where they sat had several trees that provided them with shade. The sunlight shined on Su Qingcheng’s charming little face in motley patches as it passed through the gaps between the leaves. She was extremely adorable when she narrowed her eyes and looked at Shao Yibai…
“I’ve wanted to come here for a long time to fulfill a wish…” Su Qingcheng scanned her surroundings. There was a faintly pleased expression on her face.
“What made you want to do that?” Shao Yibai could not understand. What was so fun about sitting on the lawn?
“I’ve seen many couples dating here…”
Su Qingcheng murmured.
Shao Yibai realized that almost a year had passed since Su Qingcheng started studying. However, this was the first time that he sat with her in the schoolyard. The young woman was only 20 years old. She was truly at the age where she longed for romance.
At that age, she was supposed to do lovey-dovey things and be inseparable from the person she was dating. Unfortunately, Shao Yibai did not spend enough time with her.
Su Qingcheng’s little face faintly blushed once she had finished speaking. When she noticed that Shao Yibai was staring at her, she frantically explained, “I wasn’t complaining that you hardly come to see me. I know that the army is strict. Moreover, you can’t just come and see me as you please because of your rank in the military…”
Her flustered appearance touched the softest part of Shao Yibai’s heart. She was such a good girl. She was so pure that he loved her dearly!
He truly wondered how her parents could sell off such an obedient child in the beginning.
When he saw her actions at that time, he gave himself a mission to protect her for the rest of his life.
As Shao Yibai pondered, he suddenly reached his arms out and pulled her into his embrace.
The woman’s body was not as fragile and frail as the first time he met her. After she had undergone all the training, her bones were strong while her muscles were taut and flexible. They did not feel limp when he pinched them now.
He was not used to her distinct curves.
His head was lowered. As his lips were about to touch the tip of her nose, the man’s deep voice sincerely said, “This place is definitely a spot that is frequented by couples on dates. Isn’t there something that all couples are supposed to do?”
They were extremely close to each other. As there were only several millimeters between them, the atmosphere here seemed more alluring now than it would be if they actually kissed.
Warm air swirled around the tip of her nose. The man’s mouth smelled sweet and minty. It seemed as though his burning gaze was asking for her opinion. However, Su Qingcheng knew that this was merely a trick. He would kiss her whether she agreed to it or not.
She realized that it would be better for her to take the initiative instead of being ridiculed by him after she took the bait.
“What do you think?” She wrapped her arms around his neck and gently closed her eyes…
Shao Yibai’s heart thumped wildly when he saw her signal. He stopped wavering and feverishly pressed his lips against hers instead.
He forcefully sucked on them and grinded against them. The tip of his tongue entered and left her cavern as they intertwined.
He held her head with one hand and wound the other around her waist. This caused her to tremble over and over again…
The woman’s soft pants made him more excited. He began kissing her more fervently. It seemed as though a gentle and nimble little fish had entered his domain. It was lively and naughty…
Her body finally felt weary after a long time. She felt as limp as a puddle of mud.
Su Qingcheng had no idea whether her brain was still working. She merely felt as though the entire world was spinning. Sunlight continued shining through the gaps between the leaves, but it seemed particularly blinding now. She could not help but bury her head near his collarbone. She was reluctant to leave for a long time.
Shao Yibai quietly chuckled when he noticed that her little face was unusually red. “Xiaodai, are you satisfied with what we did just now?”
“It wasn’t too bad.” Su Qingcheng closed her eyes and said while she intentionally buried her head in his chest.
Shao Yibai knew that she was being coy on purpose.
“Are you saying that my kissing skills still need more practice? I want to make Xiaodai proud!”
“If you put it that way, I’m not against it…” Su Qingcheng quietly murmured.
