The wind in the early spring was so cold that even the bones could feel it.

  Mu Sijue took the unconscious Xu Youning to the shore. He couldn’t care about him being embarrassed, but first untied the rope on her hands and kept pressing her chest.

  “Xu Youning, wake up!”


  Although it was still the usual tone of giving orders to Xu Youning, he could not conceal the panic in his heart.

  However, Xu Youning did not move at all.

  Mu Sijue emphasized,

  “Xu Youning!”


  “Don’t sleep, open your eyes!”


  That time, Xu Youning did not listen to him.

  Mu Sijue pinched Xu Youning’s cheeks. He took a deep breath, covered her lips, and gave her artificial respiration.

  It was repeated several times, and then pressed her chest. She finally spat out the water she drank, but still she didn’t wake up.

  The cold wind was like a knife. Mu Sijue didn’t think about it too much and held up Xu Youning. Before he reached the door, he started to scream, “Aunt Zhou, open the door!”


  When Aunt Zhou opened the door, she saw that Mu Sijue was drenched and held a girl who was also wet. He then rushed to the room in the second floor as soon as he entered the door.

  “Xiaoqi, what is going on?” Aunt Zhou followed him upstairs.

  Mu Sijue didn’t have the time to explain, but laid Xu Youning on the sofa, and took off her soaked coat. When he was about to take off another piece, he suddenly thought that it was inappropriate, so he looked back at Aunt Zhou and said, “Help me change her clothes.”


  Aunt Zhou found two sets of home clothes from Mu Sijue’s wardrobe, and handed one to Mu Sijue. “Change your clothes too, don’t catch a cold.”


  Mu Sijue changed his clothes and returned to the room. Xu Youning was already wearing his clothes. The clothes were large, and she seemed to be thinner. She lay her head on the sofa with her head tilted, exposing her long eyelashes; the whole look appeared unkempt. It was hard to believe that she was the undercover person from Kang Ruicheng.

  Aunt Zhou touched Xu Youning’s hand and shook her head. She said, “No, it’s too cold. Take her to the bed and dry her hair. I will go down and cook a ginger soup for you to get rid of the cold.”


  Mu Sijue took her to the bed; he then went to the bathroom and took the hair dryer, and blew her hair indiscriminately.

  The most desirable thing about Xu Youning was the hair, which was black and soft; it shone with the sun rays were cast on it. Occasionally, a few hairs hung down from her forehead, and looking from the side, there was a feminine beauty to her, aside from her vivaciousness.

  The hair was dried, and Aunt Zhou had cooked the ginger soup. She brought a bowl up and gave it to Mu Sijue. “You should drink first; I’ll pour some for when this girl wakes up.”


  After Mu Sijue finished drinking the ginger soup, Aunt Zhou took the empty bowl, then smiled and asked, “Sijue, what is your relationship with this girl?”


  Mu Sijue had already expected Aunt Zhou to ask, so he answered fluently, “The relationship between boss and employee.”


  “I don’t think it’s that simple.” Aunt Zhou was not so easily fooled; she had already seen through everything. She said, “From the time I came in, your eyes haven’t been removed from her. Tell me the truth, are you thinking about something with her?”


  At that time, a Samoyed—which was a tall five-or-six-year old boy—ran in from outside the door, and kept rubbing Mu Sijue with its head.

  Mu Sijue half-squatted down and touched its head, “She’s not as good as Mu Xiaowu.”


  Aunt Zhou reluctantly smiled and looked at Xu Youning on the bed. “I won’t ask you about what happened. Just because of the nervousness you just had, I know that this girl is more special for you than others. I just want to tell you that some people will only appear once in your life.”


  After that, Aunt Zhou patted Mu Xiaowu’s head. “Xiaowu, let’s go.”


  The Samoyed then rubbed Mu Sijue’s leg, and then followed Aunt Zhou downstairs.

  Mu Sijue went to the bed and looked at Xu Youning.

  She had just been choked by the water; there was no reason for her to not have woken up after so long. He leaned over and looked carefully and heard Xu Youning’s even and long breathing.

  She was not unconscious, just fast asleep.

  Mu Sijue squinted, and he kicked a wooden stool in front of the bed.

  Xu Youning was very alert. She suddenly bounced up from the bed after she heard such a loud noise, only to find that everything in front of her was strange. Looking at it, she was so scared that she was almost suffocated—Mu Sijue!

  The things before the coma gradually floated on Xu Youning’s mind—perhaps, the figure she saw before being drowned by the darkness had really been Mu Sijue.

  But she still felt it was a little unbelievable. “Mu Sijue, you saved me?”


  “Otherwise?” Mu Sijue leaned closer to Xu Youning and said, “Who else would save you besides me?”


  Xu Youning subconsciously leaned back to keep a distance between them. “Thank you.” After looking around, she asked, “Where is this?”


  “My room.”


  Xu Youning goggled and almost jumped out of bed. “How can I be in your room!”


  Mu Sijue stared deeply at Xu Youning. He added, “You’re also wearing my clothes.”


  Xu Youning looked down and saw that her clothes had disappeared. Instead, she was wearing a loose gray home menswear, which made her look like an eight-year-old girl who had stolen the clothes of an adult. It was so large that her shoulders and collarbone were fully exposed.

  She then suddenly tightened her neckline and trembled while asking, “Who changed my clothes?”


  “Is there a third person besides me and you in this room?” Mu Sijue’s slender sly eyes revealed a fascinating evilness.

  Xu Youning was indeed tempted by him. She looked at him with shock and forgot to look away.

  In all fairness, Mu Sijue was really good-looking, with a well-defined silhouette and a perfect face, which always made people feel difficult to tell the right and wrong.

  If he went to be an actor, he would be able to attract a large number of girls.

  However, it seemed to be inconvenient to be a fan at a time like that; he took advantage of her, so getting back at him was the most important!

  “Mu Sijue!” Xu Youning threw a pillow over and said, “You’re a villain who takes advantage of others! Shameless! Dirty!”


  “.……” Mu Sijue did not speak, but hooked his mouth calmly.

  Xu Youning suddenly had a very bad feeling, and cautiously asked, “Is there anything that you didn’t tell me?”


  Mu Sijue placed his hands in the pockets of his casual pants and said slowly, “I gave you artificial respiration when I picked you up from the bottom of the lake.”


  “Boom—”


  When lightning struck, Xu Youning couldn’t move.

  Artificial respiration, which meant that Mu Sijue touched her lips……

  She had cherished her first kiss for so many years. While unconscious…… it was gone!

  “Mu Sijue!” Xu Youning was like a little tiger who had her teeth pulled out and rushed over from the bed. “I’m going to kill you!”


  Xu Youning knew that she could not beat Mu Sijue when fighting, so she couldn’t do that to him. She should just bite and scratch him, only that way would he not hit back.

  Mu Sijue did not expect Xu Youning to use that trick, and scolded coldly, “Xu Youning, enough!”


  Xu Youning at the moment was full of hatred; her mind was in a chaos and she didn’t even think before she spoke. She roared, “What!? Give me my first kiss back!”


  After that, she pushed Mu Sijue hard, who had just taken advantage of the situation and suddenly, she fell into his arms back-first.

  In the end, both of them fell on the bed, but Mu Sijue still pressed her.

  “What the h*ll!?”


  Xu Youning used her full strength to push Mu Sijue, but was easily suppressed by him.

  Looking at her boss’s dark and bottomless eyes, Xu Youning’s heart suddenly swayed and she felt that something was spreading in her heart, and her pulse accelerated.

  “That kind of reaction…… wasn’t that the so-called heartbeat?”


  Xu Youning suddenly panicked, and for the first time in her life, she had the idea of running, but Mu Sijue pressed against her, and she could not move at all.

  “Really, was it the first kiss?” Mu Sijue stared at Xu Youning, and the evil spirits made her feel that he was planning something bad.

  Xu Youning didn’t know if it was her own illusion, but Mu Sijue seemed to be laughing inside.

  She became more flustered and struggled. “What does it have to do with you?”


  “Of course.”


  Just when Mu Sijue finished talking, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Aunt Zhou’s voice came in. “Xiaoqi, that……” Looking at the situation in the room, her voice stopped and seemed unable to accept it. “The children now are……”


  The door was slammed shut. Xu Youning’s face had turned into a crisp tomato color, then she grabbed a pillow and slammed it on Mu Sijue’s face. “Get out!”


  Mu Sijue dodged it and Xu Youning seized the opportunity to escape and rush out. She almost bumped into Aunt Zhou on the stairway.

  She didn’t know that Aunt Zhou had deliberately blocked her.

  Xu Youning was very sorry and she bowed. “Auntie, I am sorry, I didn’t notice you.”


  “It doesn’t matter, you didn’t hit me.” Aunt Zhou grabbed Xu Youning’s hand and said, “Come here, first drink a bowl of ginger soup.”


  “Ah?” Xu Youning was stunned by Aunt Zhou. “No, aunt……”


  “Call me Aunt Zhou.” She pressed Xu Youning to sit down and gave her the warm ginger soup. “I don’t know why you were soaked, but the weather is cold. Drink a bowl of ginger soup so you won’t catch a cold.”


  It was hard to decline; Xu Youning took the ginger soup and drank it. She then said, “Thank you, Auntie, I need to go.”


  “Don’t, don’t rush.” Aunt Zhou quickly pulled Xu Youning, and looked at the clothes on her body. “The clothes that you changed into are a little larger, but it was the only way, since there are only clothes of mine and Xiaoqi’s. You would have surely been disgusted by the clothes of an old woman, so I changed yours with his.”


  Xu Youning was confused. “Aunt Zhou, my clothes…… were changed by you?”


  “Yeah,” Aunt Zhou smiled and said, “Who else do you think did it?”


  Xu Youning tore Mu Sijue in her heart for a thousand times, and squeezed a smile. “Aunt Zhou, thank you.”


  “You are welcome.” Aunt Zhou patted Xu Youning’s hand and said, “You are the first girl that Xiaoqi has brought home. I should take care of you!”


  “Aunt Zhou,” Xu Youning asked aimlessly, “The Xiaoqi you mention…… is Mu Sijue?”


  “Yeah. He is the seventh of his generation in his family. That is his nickname. Now it’s only me who calls him that.” Aunt Zhou smiled very kindly and asked, “What else do you want to know about him? “I can tell you all, I watched him grow up!”


  Xu Youning smiled and said, “This is enough.”


  The well-known Mu Sijue, everyone in city A would call him “Seventh Brother”.……his nickname was actually Xiaoqi?

  If Mu Sijue dared to scold her someday, she would tell his nickname to the world!

  At that time, Mu Sijue’s face would turn black.

  Thinking of that, Xu Youning smiled happily. She stood up and thanked Aunt Zhou once again. She said politely, “Auntie, I need to go now.”


  Aunt Zhou still wanted to keep Xu Youning, but she didn’t know what excuses to look for.

  At that time, Mu Sijue appeared on the stairs, staring coolly at Xu Youning’s back. “Come back.”
