Sitting before Tang Si, Shi Ran asked with some worry, "What about you? Are you hurt?"
"Are you worried about me?" Tang Si raised his hand, putting his arm around her neck, openly flirting with her.
Shi Ran's face flushed with shyness, and she pushed him away, "Stop fooling around, you're never serious."
Tang Si uttered those indecent words without any reservation, making Shi Ran so embarrassed she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
"Are you trying to die? Sister Wei is right here, how can you be so shameless?" She pouted and shot him a glare.
Tang Si rested his elbows on the table, raised his eyebrows, and gave a mischievous smile, "Little Chili, you're already a mother. What's wrong with her being here?"
Shi Ran: "..."
"Go upstairs and rest. Let's wait for Ah Ye's news," Meng Jingwei said, unable to help but chuckle at the two lovers being so affectionate.
She got up and went upstairs first.
Tang Si, however, remained seated. Only after Meng Jingwei entered the elevator did he throw his arm around Shi Ran's neck and pull her into his embrace, "You have quite the nerve. I'm only gone for one night, and you're already so close with Kang Xiaolu. Do you think I'm dead?"
Shi Ran twisted her little face and lightly patted his chest with her slender jade finger, "What nonsense are you talking about? I was just too worried about you, I couldn't sleep. So I came downstairs to wipe the tables and sweep the floor to distract myself, otherwise I..."
As she spoke, her head drooped, "You were gone for two days and a night, I was really worried."
Shi Ran's voice was soft and her pampered, cute face was filled with sadness, making one's heart ache with tenderness.
Tang Si couldn't stand seeing her like this. He reached out, hooked her chin, and kissed her lips.
It was a fleeting kiss, like a dragonfly skimming the water. He lifted his head, "I missed you too."
With that, he picked her up in his arms, quickly walked to the elevator, pressed another button, and stepped inside.
Ding—
The elevator doors closed.
He pinned Shi Ran against the elevator wall and leaned down to kiss her.
It was a tempestuous kiss, passionate and fiery. Shi Ran was so dizzy from his kiss that she didn't even realize when they had exited the elevator.
"Ah Si..."
She called his name.
"Yes, what is it?"
Tang Si pretended to be serious.
"I... I... you..." Some words were difficult to utter. Shi Ran's small face was as red as a ripe peach, incredibly cute.
