Chapter 54
Since Jiang Yan was not familiar with the host of the party, Gu Ziyi, she planned to just make a brief appearance.
However, as soon as she arrived at the venue, Lu Enen was whisked away by her group of friends. Jiang Yan was left sitting alone, watching her leave.
But how could Lu Enen bear to leave her sister alone? She called over all her little friends and introduced them one by one to Jiang Yan.
Seeing the children being so earnest, Jiang Yan played along and exchanged names with them. But when it came to a mixed-race little boy, there was a mistake.
The little boy was slightly taller than Lu Enen, and his face looked strangely familiar, with fair skin and deep, soulful eyes. He introduced himself as Jiang Jinqian and politely greeted Jiang Yan as "sister-in-law."
Jiang Yan was utterly perplexed, thinking he had mistakenly addressed her, and explained, "Call me 'sister', not 'sister-in-law'."
Jiang Jinqian, as if threatened by someone, simply stood at the back and did not bother to correct himself.
Lu Enen angrily went to scold him, "Don't call my sister that!"
The other children followed her, and Jiang Yan heaved a sigh of relief, seeing that they were just playing around.
She was about to head inside to see if there were any familiar faces when she was stopped by a tall man.
Jiang Yan looked at him, puzzled, and the man studied her intently, as if confirming something, then greeted her, "Little sister."
Jiang Yan: "...I'm not married yet."
The man brushed it off, saying, "It's only a matter of time, and this way it's more intimate..."
Jiang Yan felt the day was becoming increasingly bizarre and was about to explain further when a cold voice interrupted them.
"Brother, go inside and take a seat."
The clear, resonant voice, laced with aloofness, was unmistakably Yan Xiao's.
Jiang Yan's supposed brother-in-law thought he had interrupted a couple's intimate moment and chuckled as he left.
Suddenly, Jiang Yan found herself facing the impassive Yan Xiao with no obstructions.
"Miss Lu, what are you doing here? Did you fly in?" Yan Xiao spoke in a mocking, sarcastic tone, completely different from his previous sunny and docile manner.
Jiang Yan did not yet know that her charade had been exposed, and stubbornly continued to play the role of the heartless woman: "I'll come and go as I please. We're over, and there's no way we'll get back together. Just give up..."
However, before she could finish, the enraged young master suddenly covered her mouth and pulled her into the backyard.
Speaking in the open was indeed inappropriate. As soon as they stopped, Jiang Yan was about to struggle, but Yan Xiao's gritted teeth voice suddenly appeared in her ear: "You kissed me, and you dare not admit it? If you dare, you're done for!"
"What kiss?!" Jiang Yan was completely shocked. "When did I kiss you?!"
Yan Xiao wished he could cover her mouth again. His phoenix-like eyes glared at her, each word dripping with anger: "Shameless! Yesterday at the clubhouse, you took advantage of me, and you still won't admit it?"
With the time and place specified, Jiang Yan looked at the young master's expression and realized it must be true. After a few seconds of silence, she weakly said, "I blacked out."
The young master was furious, but after a while, he calmed down, as if he had experienced this many times before. He calmly straightened his clothes and said, "You can check the surveillance footage if you don't remember, but you have to take responsibility. You stole my first kiss, and from now on, you're not allowed to mess around with other men."
He had thought about it all night and realized that since they had already kissed, he had to make her his.
"What's wrong with a kiss? It's normal..." Jiang Yan said.
"You lied to me and said your home was in a remote area." Yan Xiao reasoned.
"That has nothing to do with it..." Jiang Yan protested.
"When you kissed me, you didn't even know who I was. Do you have many 'fish' in your net?" Yan Xiao asked as calmly as possible.
Jiang Yan felt aggrieved: "No, you're the only one!"
Yan Xiao sighed silently, then continued, "You asked for my contact information long ago. You were just playing with me."
Jiang Yan: ... She had no words to refute this.
But due to the system, Jiang Yan ultimately did not agree. Yan Xiao was enraged, and in the end, he simply cursed her, "Heartless woman!"
The young man stood tall and proud, dressed in a well-tailored white suit, regal like a prince from a fairy tale. In a certain sense, this was their first real meeting. Her ex-boyfriend was still so handsome in real life.
After being cursed, Jiang Yan admired him with appreciative eyes and said, "You're so handsome."
The other party's lips moved slightly, seeming even angrier.
