He never touched anything that had been touched by others, let alone drank from a cup someone else had used. Although he knew his brother had a special relationship with his sister-in-law, he never expected it to be this special. Just a few days ago, he was worried about his brother's cleanliness, thinking about what would happen if his brother and sister-in-law kissed? What if his brother's cleanliness acted up? That would really ruin the mood. Swallowing hard, Mo Cheng was curious about how his sister-in-law managed to get his brother to overcome his cleanliness. Suddenly, he had an idea, "Brother, Sister-in-law, we rarely get together, and everyone is meeting Sister-in-law for the first time, right? How can we not make a gesture? Brother, show some affection!"

When Zhan Yan heard his words, she almost sprayed out the water she had just drunk, feeling embarrassed.

Upon hearing Mo Cheng's words, everyone else immediately started getting excited and echoing him, especially Monkey and Mosquito, whose voices were particularly loud. They expressed what everyone was thinking. They were extremely curious about how the cleanliness-obsessed Gu Dashao would kiss. However, they were also afraid of his imposing presence. Even if they farted, they would do it quietly. Now that Cheng Zi had said it out loud, they naturally joined in, even if Gu Dashao wanted to punish them, he couldn't do it. The cries of agreement and excitement grew louder.

Gu Mo Xi, after hearing Mo Cheng's words, looked at his brother with deep and unfathomable eyes. Seeing his brother's calm expression, he thought it was hopeless.

As Zhan Yan was about to put down her cup, her face turned red with embarrassment. She was about to leave when Gu Mo Xi suddenly grabbed her wrist, pulled her onto his lap, held the back of her head, and kissed her passionately. This kiss was different from before. It was intense and fierce, almost painful as he sucked on her lips, his tongue intertwining with hers. The force of his hand on her shoulder increased, almost crushing her, as they kissed for five minutes until they were out of breath. Gu Mo Xi finally released her, his sharp gaze sweeping over her, "Satisfied?" He pressed her head against his chest with one hand, not wanting anyone to see even a hint of her charm. This was only for him. What he was doing now was asserting his dominance.

Everyone in the room stared in astonishment at the scene unfolding before them. Mo Cheng was stunned and ran to the window to see if it was raining red outside. Su Cheng Rui couldn't hide his shock, tightly pursing his lips. He hadn't expected Gu Mo Xi to really take action with this woman. What was so good about her? She had a dry figure, and her only redeeming quality was her appearance. He just couldn't stand this woman. Moreover, she was playing both sides. No, he had to expose her true colors.

"Brother, you..." Mo Cheng couldn't even speak properly, stimulated by what he saw. Seeing his brother's skillful kissing technique, he knew that his brother had been using his sister-in-law as a practice partner for some time now.

Gu Mo Xi didn't give them a chance to speak. He hugged Zhan Yan and left directly.

Zhan Yan's eye twitched. She never expected that one day she would be princess-carried by a man. Even with Lu Chen Xi, she never thought about being carried like a princess. It wasn't about habit; it was about dignity. Zhan Yan was about to struggle, but Gu Mo Xi's strong grip held her firmly in place, preventing her from escaping. His hands were like iron, steady and strong, holding her securely. She didn't struggle anymore, just buried her head in his chest, feeling embarrassed in front of the people passing by on both sides.

Once they were in the car, Zhan Yan still felt a bit awkward. She looked out the window, and Gu Mo Xi noticed that his usually obedient darling was unusually shy. He pressed his lips together, his face softened, and he whispered, "Yan Yan, my darling... my darling..."

At first, Zhan Yan didn't want to respond to him, but she couldn't hide the slight blush creeping up her ears. Gu Mo Xi saw her blush and the unmistakable hint of a teasing smile in his deep eyes. If she didn't respond, he would keep calling her.

"My darling... my darling..."

"Um." Zhan Yan turned her head and met his gaze, realizing that she had been teased. However, instead of being angry, she felt something strange and sweet in her heart.

He kissed her forehead and they fell into a comfortable silence. They didn't need words. Gu Mo Xi had never expected to meet a woman who would make him care at the age of twenty-seven, a woman who would constantly affect him, grasp his heart, and never let go.

They could hear each other's breathing.

Qin Lu felt a bit hurt by Zhan Yan's cold demeanor. She had something to say, but the director called her over, and Qin Lu watched as Zhan Yan hurriedly ran over.

Xue, the director, instructed the assistant director to supervise, then walked over to Zhan Yan and patted her shoulder, asking, "Kid, ever thought about getting into this circle?"

"No," Zhan Yan replied flatly.

Seeing her direct refusal, Xue's mouth twitched slightly, continuing to tempt her, "You look good, and you have talent in acting. If you're willing, you can be the male lead in the next movie we shoot. How about that?" He threw out such a tempting offer, believing she would be tempted. He should know what it meant if she agreed, right?

"The male lead?" Xue nodded eagerly, about to say more, when Zhan Yan interrupted, "Who said I'm a man?"

Xue stared blankly, unable to believe it. He opened his mouth, trembling for a long time but unable to utter a word.

"Zhan Yan, Mr. Su wants to see you." It was Su Cheng Rui's efficient secretary who came over.

Zhan Yan glanced at Xue, then turned and left.

Xue wanted to say something more, but Zhan Yan was already far away. Even after her figure had disappeared into the distance, Xue still stared blankly in that direction. She... Just now, she said she was... a woman? If Zhan Yan hadn't made it clear just now, he would have thought he misheard. This person who lacked any feminine qualities was a woman? This was so shocking it made his head spin.

In his office, Su Cheng Rui was still furious. That damned Zhan Yan had actually stolen his woman? Early this morning, Su Cheng Rui received a call from Qin Lu, saying she had found someone she truly loved and wanted to part on good terms. It was the first time he had been dumped by a woman, and the reason for the breakup was another woman? What did that Zhan Yan have that he didn't? A woman actually compared him to that Zhan Yan? His anger made him smash his phone to pieces.

When Zhan Yan entered the office, Su Cheng Rui's face was dark as he looked at her, his expression as if he wanted to devour her. He knew he wasn't angry about being dumped, but rather that he had been compared to another woman. How could he let go of this grudge when he was usually so high and mighty?

"Zhan Yan, although I know you're good at seducing both men and women, I didn't expect you to be this skilled," Su Cheng Rui sneered, directly attacking. This damned woman was getting more and more infuriating.

Zhan Yan caught the cold gleam in his eyes and understood that he was looking for trouble. "Oh? Mr. Su, what do you mean?"

At this moment, Su Cheng Rui's anger surged. "Zhan Yan, you turn pale at the mention of Lu Chen Xi. It seems that Lu Chen Xi has a great influence on you! But that Lu Chen Xi already has someone he likes. No matter how you cling to him, it's useless."

As she fell silent, Su Cheng Rui thought she had been struck by his words and felt even more triumphant. Zhan Yan raised her gaze, meeting his eyes calmly. "What does it matter to me whether he has someone he likes or not? And what does it matter to you whether I like him or not? Su Cheng Rui, I warned you not to interfere. You won't be able to bear the consequences."

"You're threatening me?" Su Cheng Rui scoffed.

"It's not a threat, it's a warning."

"You think I was scared by someone?" Su Cheng Rui sneered. "Zhan Yan, just because you know a little bit of martial arts, you think you can look down on everyone. Here, if you provoke me, I dare to kill you." Su Cheng Rui threatened fiercely.

"Finished?" Zhan Yan walked over, and the distance between them was only a desk. She leaned against the desk, her gaze fierce, the scar at the corner of her eye making her look terrifying. Her eyes were filled with hostility, and she said lightly, "Then let's see who ends up killing whom." The last few words burst with killing intent, piercing straight into his chest, making it hard for him to breathe. Then she turned and left.

Su Cheng Rui stared at her departing figure in astonishment. Flipping over the desk wasn't enough. He kicked it several times before feeling relieved. He had been intimidated by this woman once again. Damn her! Ever since he crossed paths with this woman, he had never won. Zhan Yan, do you think I'll be afraid of you, a woman?

"Mr. Su." The secretary, who was about to enter the room, was stunned by the scene before her and stood at the door, unsure of what to do.

"Come in."

"What's the matter?"

"About the project."

"Go on."

"Famous director Qin Yu will return to China tomorrow. The movie he chooses to direct will be the headline news nationwide. If he can direct a film for our company, it will definitely be beneficial for us. However, Qin Yu is not only Lu Chen Xi's classmate but also a very close friend of his. If we don't act first, he might be poached by Lu Chen Xi. The funds invested in our next project are incomparable to the previous ones, and the risk is extremely high, especially since we're up against Feng Yu Entertainment."

Feng Yu Entertainment was a well-known company founded by Lu Chen Xi himself, several years before their own company. In terms of strength, connections, and background, it was beyond their reach. Not to mention Lu Chen Xi's extraordinary capabilities. Although he and Lu Chen Xi were not very familiar, they had met several times at social events. He seemed gentle on the surface but had a deep and scheming mind. This was a formidable opponent, one he never denied.

Even he had to admit that this man was very charming. No wonder that woman fell in love with him. Squinting, with a thoughtful expression, he suddenly said, "Assign this project to Zhan Yan. Let her be in charge of it from start to finish." With a cold smile on his lips, he thought, Zhan Yan, you love that man, right? Then I'll give you a chance to get close to him personally. Women are emotional creatures. When the time comes, everything will be beyond her control.

After listening to Mr. Su's words, Wu Qin was dumbfounded. How come she hadn't thought that Mr. Su would entrust such an important project to a newcomer who had just arrived? She was about to say something, but Su Cheng Rui immediately interrupted her, "That's it. Make sure to arrange for her to meet Lu Chen Xi as much as possible, understand?"

Although Wu Qin didn't understand Mr. Su's intentions, she remained silent and nodded in agreement.

After work in the evening, Zhan Yan called Mo Xi, telling him not to pick her up. She had some things to take care of and would go back after finishing them.
