Take her as my wife

The outdoor hot spring pool was quite crowded, with men, women, young and old all there.

Liu Jiaren soaked in the hot spring for less than five minutes, probably because she thought the floral underwear Jiang Fengyu had found for her was too silly, and decided to go back to her room to soak in the private hot spring instead.

Jiang Ni was still thinking about something, so she didn't move.

Just then, a call came in on Tan Wen's phone. It was Xie Tao calling, and judging from his tone, he wanted to talk about serious matters, so Tan Wen went to the side to answer the call, but his eyes were constantly on Jiang Ni's side.

"Senior brother, what is it?"

Xie Tao's tone was somewhat serious: "Where are you?"

Tan asked, "What's wrong, senior brother?"

"There's been new progress in the previous 'surrogacy' case. Through our investigation over this period, just as you said, this group is a transnational criminal organization, and their base of operations is not in China. They usually operate in Southeast Asia, so this time extending their reach into China is more likely a test."

However, an unexpected problem arose halfway through, and the resulting losses will inevitably be severe.

Xie Tao rubbed his temples: "Most importantly, we received a message from our informant in Myanmar that 'Boss Su' seems to have his eye on you."

Tan Wen's performance in the last arrest operation was outstanding; he even made an appearance...

"Damn, it's all my fault, I didn't consider these things," Xie Tao asked, "When are you planning to come back?"

Tan Wen wasn't worried at all; instead, she reassured him, "Nobody knows they're a transnational criminal organization. It's not your problem, senior. I'm here with my girlfriend; the exact time depends on her."

"Alright, you can stay in S City for a few days first, and live on campus when you come back. I don't believe these people have the ability to commit crimes at the Public Security University."

As he was hanging up the phone, Xie Tao suddenly exclaimed, "Oh no, I almost forgot. These people are cunning and ruthless—if they can't find you, they might target your girlfriend to force you to submit."

Upon hearing this, Tan Wen's relaxed expression suddenly changed.

Xie Tao quickly said, "I'll find some people to protect her..."

Tan Wen already had an idea and interrupted him, saying, "No need to trouble you. My fellow students are already working hard enough. I'll figure something out myself."

"Okay, contact me if anything comes up."

After the call ended, Tan Wen immediately went to find Yang Jiu.

Yang Jiuguo was on a blind date and watching a movie outside. As he walked out, holding his phone, he whispered, "Why are you calling me at this hour?"

"Find me a few skilled men to stay by my sister's side 24/7. Name your price."

Yang Jiu asked in bewilderment, "Did your sister get involved with the underworld?"

If it were really the underworld, there would be no need to be so nervous. Tan Wen is not afraid of these people causing trouble for him, but he is afraid of implicating Jiang Ni.

"It's a long story, and it would be best to let them bring some weapons," Tan Wen reminded them. "Those people are not to be trifled with."

Yang Jiu smiled and said, "My men aren't pushovers either. Don't worry, I guarantee they won't let anyone touch a hair on your sister's head—three hundred, no problem, right? If it takes too long, you'll have to pay more. My brothers are risking their lives to earn money."

"No problem, I'll have someone transfer the money to your card tomorrow."

The matter was entrusted to Hu Jiaguang. When they heard that three million yuan was to be transferred out, the Hu brothers were a little puzzled, but they readily agreed without asking any further questions.

Even with Yang Jiu's assurance, Tan Wen remained on edge, as Jiang Ni's safety was at stake, and he dared not relax for a moment.

"Sister, are you still going for a bath? I want to talk to you about something."

Jiang Ni shook her head: "I'm not going to soak anymore, let's go."

Tan Wen stood by the pool and carried her directly out of the hot spring.

Her body was wet, and because she had been soaking in the hot spring water, her fair skin had turned a light pink, and she exuded an alluring scent of "fullness and juiciness".

Tan quickly wrapped the towel around her again: "I'll blow-dry your hair when we get back."

They left the hot spring pool hand in hand, their backs radiating an indescribable intimacy.

"Xuanxuan, do you like that tall, handsome guy? I've noticed you've been staring at him the whole time."

Xia Ningxuan looked away and shook her head slightly: "No..."

She was looking at Jiang Ni.

She recognized Jiang Ni; Jiang Ni's composure, calmness, gentleness, and thoughtfulness had left a deep impression on her that day in the bathroom.

That boy was her...boyfriend.

Xia Ningxuan's heart sank, a mix of guilt and conflict churning within her.

Back in her room, Jiang Ni took a shower, changed into a clean nightgown, and sat down at her vanity. Tan Wen stood behind her and dried her hair.

The hairdryer made a soft whooshing sound. Jiang Ni looked up from the mirror and asked him, "What is it?"

After telling her about the follow-up to the surrogacy case, Tan Wen mentioned that he had arranged for someone to protect her, and then seriously discussed with her, "Sister, please try to avoid going to crowded places during this time, okay?"

Jiang Ni wasn't frightened by what he said, and simply nodded in agreement: "Okay, I understand, I'll be careful, and you should be careful too."

She has always been calm and brave.

Tan Wen turned off the hairdryer, bent down and kissed her left ear, sucking on her soft earlobe, then continued to move towards her cheek, like a clingy large dog.

Jiang Ni felt very ticklish from his kissing. She was ticklish and never knew that her ears could be a sensitive area.

She tilted her head slightly and pushed him away with her hand: "...Stop licking me. Are you a kitten or puppy? How can you have such a fetish?"

Tan Wen kissed her from her cheek to the corner of her lips. Her lips were beautiful, and because she felt ticklish, her eyes were curved in a smile, and the corners of her lips were also upturned. The infatuation in his eyes was like boiling water, full of heat.

"My sister's hobbies aren't exactly respectable either, so why are you bringing it up?" He casually pecked at her full lips, expressing his protest in the process.

Jiang Ni: "..."

She woke up this morning clutching something, and seeing that it was still early, Tan Wen insisted on doing a craft project, and she finally agreed after some hesitation.

The craft project was still completed under the covers. Practice makes perfect, and Jiang Ni felt that her craft skills had improved significantly, but Tan Wen was also making progress.

To be more specific, Jiang Ni's wrist was still slightly sore before she left the house.

They probably both thought of what happened that morning, and the atmosphere suddenly became even more intimate. Tan Wen simply picked her up and carried her to the bed.

"Actually, there's something I like even more," he said, placing Jiang Ni on the bed and kneeling on one knee himself. His inner eyes narrowed slightly. "Are you scared, sister?"

His palm pressed down on Jiang Ni's calf, trying to get closer to her.

Jiang Ni instinctively raised her leg and kicked him in the chest, stopping his movement: "It's not that I'm scared... it's just that can't we take it one step at a time?"

Tan Wen lowered his eyes to look at the foot that was stepping on him, and straightened up.

"it is good."

Jiang Ni thought he had agreed and hadn't even breathed a sigh of relief when, the next second, Tan Wen grabbed her slender ankle with one hand and draped it over his shoulder.

"Tian, ​​slow down, is that what you mean?"

Jiang Ni: "!"

She kicked her legs, but she was wearing a nightgown, and this action clearly made her situation more dangerous.

Just when Jiang Ni thought he was really going to do something, Tan Wen gently put her legs down, straightened her skirt, and left the bed.

"Just teasing my sister," he said as he walked to the table where his luggage bags were, picked up a change of clothes, and said, "I'm going to take a shower. You can find a movie, and we can watch it together later."

Jiang Ni sat up in bed and hummed in response, but the heat in her body and her pounding heart had not yet subsided.

She clearly saw him…

The sound of running water came from the bathroom.

Jiang Ni's gaze shifted and landed on the duffel bag.

We agreed to take this first step and give it a try; we can't stay stuck at this point forever, can we?

Jiang Ni pursed her lips, put on her shoes, got out of bed, and found the swimsuit that Liu Jiaren had given her.
