Xia Wanyuan turned to look at Jun Shiling. In the past, Jun Shiling would always kick up a fuss because he called her Sister Wanyuan. Today, he was surprisingly quiet as he looked out of the window, which made Xia Wanyuan a little uncomfortable.
“He’s looking for me because the Wei family’s old madam wants to see me,” Xia Wanyuan suddenly said as if she had thought of something.
“Mm.”
“He told me that there might be another reason for my mother’s death.”
“Mm.” Jun Shiling still looked out of the window and did not turn around.
“Wei Zimu gave me a fan. It’s pretty cool. I feel like he really treats me as his sister, the kind of person who is close to his family, although I don’t know why he treats me so well.”
“Mm.” Jun Shiling’s aura gradually softened under Xia Wanyuan’s words.
Xia Wanyuan looked at Jun Shiling’s cold side profile, not knowing how to continue the conversation. At that moment, Jun Shiling turned around and looked at Xia Wanyuan with a deep gaze.
“Stupid, I’ve never really been angry. I was just teasing you. I believe you.” Jun Shiling paused, as if he had used all his courage to speak.
“Even if you don’t choose me in the end, I will believe you. I will always respect your choice.”
Xia Wanyuan’s heart skipped a beat. With a smile on her face, she took the initiative to reach out to Jun Shiling for the first time. “Hug.”
Jun Shiling had been mentally preparing himself outside the dining room for an entire hour before he finally built a tall mental defense. It collapsed under Xia Wanyuan’s gentle “hug”.
Only then did Jun Shiling let go of his hand that had already formed a fingerprint and hugged Xia Wanyuan tightly.
In a place where Xia Wanyuan could not see, the love and possessiveness in Jun Shiling’s eyes surged out in all directions, making one feel shocked.
Even though he had magnanimously convinced himself to be mentally prepared not to have her, the moment he hugged Xia Wanyuan, Jun Shiling could not imagine what would happen to him without Xia Wanyuan.
The desire that could not be expressed in words, the strong possessiveness that was hidden extremely deeply, the passion that had been suppressed day after day, but had grown like wild grass, all softened under Xia Wanyuan’s comforting “hug”. The love that came out of her heart swept through every corner of her body.
“I love you,” Jun Shiling whispered into Xia Wanyuan’s ear. Xia Wanyuan froze.
This was the first time someone had said this to her in her two lifetimes. Although Jun Shiling’s voice was extremely soft, the heavy emotions that seemed to be real made her feel it herself.
Xia Wanyuan’s heart softened. In the past, whenever Jun Shiling hugged her, she would always stay in his arms passively.
She raised her arm and put it down again. After three times, she finally mustered her courage and hugged Jun Shiling back.
Sensing the gentle movement at his waist, Jun Shiling’s body suddenly stiffened, and he hugged Xia Wanyuan even tighter.
“Can you give me a little more time?” Xia Wanyuan’s voice sounded.
“Okay, I’ll wait for you.” Jun Shiling lowered his head and planted a kiss on Xia Wanyuan’s hair. It was rare that Xia Wanyuan did not dodge this time, causing the flames in Jun Shiling’s eyes to burn even more.
This was the first time Xia Wanyuan had taken the initiative to hug him. Jun Shiling was overjoyed. On the way back, he did not want Xia Wanyuan to let go.
“I’m hot. Let go.” Xia Wanyuan wanted to retract her hand, but Jun Shiling held it tightly at her waist.
“No, how can you run after touching me?” Jun Shiling’s eyes were smiling as he held Xia Wanyuan’s hand.
“Jun Shiling!” Xia Wanyuan was angry and embarrassed. She could not help but call out to Jun Shiling loudly.
“Yes,” Jun Shiling replied leisurely. “Madam, what can I do for you?”
For the first time in her life, Xia Wanyuan felt regretful. She shouldn’t have softened her heart and hugged Jun Shiling back just now.
After struggling for a while, she could not escape. Xia Wanyuan directly used combat skills with Jun Shiling. What surprised her was that Jun Shiling had easily neutralized her move.
“You know how to fight?” Xia Wanyuan asked curiously. Normally, Jun Shiling rarely fought, but from Jun Shiling’s actions just now, he was definitely an expert.
“As the person in charge of the Jun Corporation, you have to have some self-defense skills. There’s no need to be afraid of anything.” Jun Shiling patiently explained to Xia Wanyuan, but his hand was still gentle and could not break free from Xia Wanyuan.
“You’re really amazing.” Xia Wanyuan really admired Jun Shiling now. How could he do anything so outstanding?
Due to Xia Wanyuan’s actions and Jun Shiling’s move to suppress her, the two of them were now intertwined in a strange position.
Initially, Xia Wanyuan wanted to use her leg to press down on Jun Shiling’s knee, but Jun Shiling dodged her. At that moment, Xia Wanyuan’s right leg was kneeling between Jun Shiling’s legs. The two hands were suppressing each other, and the distance between the two of them was practically close.
Jun Shiling’s Adam’s apple bobbed. Xia Wanyuan sensed the flames rising in Jun Shiling’s eyes. Not only did she not dodge, but her right leg rubbed against Jun Shiling’s leg. “Are you letting go?”
Jun Shiling’s body suddenly froze. The place where Xia Wanyuan had touched seemed to be ignited, and the temperature on his body seemed to have instantly risen. Flames surged in Jun Shiling’s eyes, but his hand seemed to be holding a hot piece of fire. He let go of Xia Wanyuan’s hand almost instantly.
Between the two of them, he was the one who did not dare to gamble. He was afraid that he could not control himself, but he did not want to hurt Xia Wanyuan.
“You’re just taking advantage of the fact that I don’t have any resistance to you. Go back to the room first.” Jun Shiling helplessly pulled a pillow over and placed it in front of him. Both of them knew what Jun Shiling was hiding.
Although Xia Wanyuan was the culprit, her face flushed red. She hurriedly stepped out of Jun Shiling’s arms. “Hmph, CEO Jun doesn’t have much self-control, but you’re blaming me.”
“I still have very strong self-control, but when facing you, my self-control is zero.” Jun Shiling was very helpless. He looked at Xia Wanyuan as if he could do nothing to her.
The doting look in his eyes made Xia Wanyuan’s heart burn. “I’m leaving.” With that, she left the car.

“You’re saying that we can’t find Xia Wanyuan’s residence?” In the courtyard, Old Madam Wei drank tea and listened to the servants’ report.
“Yes, Old Madam. Our people are always disrupted halfway. Furthermore, the radar in her car is useless. Someone should be protecting her from behind.” The person in charge of tracking felt that it was strange. The Wei family was not a small family. If they could intercept the Wei family’s signal every time, how terrifying must their opponent be?
“Since you can’t find out, there’s no need to investigate. Let’s retreat.” Old Madam Wei’s expression was as usual, making it impossible to tell her emotions.
“Yes, Old Madam.” The servant left after reporting. Old Madam Wei looked at Xia Wanyuan’s life information on the table. Her usually stern face revealed a few doubts.
