You're already divorced, why are you so anxious about him becoming a succubus?

Lu Ci, who was still immersed in the afterglow of the words, was almost amused by them. Just as he was about to reach out to pull her up, Lin Wan had already stood up by holding onto the sofa.

"Okay, time for bed. I have to get up early for work tomorrow."

Lin Wan didn't give Lu Ci a chance to take the initiative. She took Lu Ci's hand and walked straight to the bedroom.

The two lay on the soft, large double bed.

Like an exhausted kitten, Lin Wan rolled directly into Lu Ci's arms, found a comfortable position against his chest, and closed her eyes.

Seeing that she really intended to go to sleep like this, Lu Ci was a little dumbfounded for a moment.

He looked down at the warm, soft body in his arms, and then felt his own eighteen-year-old body, which was full of energy and had just been ignited but then abruptly stopped. His lips twitched involuntarily.

"Uh...that's it?"

Upon hearing Lu Ci's question, which was filled with resentment, Lin Wan, who had been keeping her eyes closed, suddenly opened her peach blossom eyes playfully.

She slightly raised her head, resting her chin on Lu Ci's chest, and looked at the man's discomfiture, a sly smug glint in her eyes: "Heh, not satisfied, huh?"

Lin Wan stretched out her slender fingers and drew alluring circles on Lu Ci's chest, her voice so soft and sweet it seemed to draw silk: "Be content, Brother Lu... This is... the first time I've ever done this in my life..."

At this point, Lin Wanjiao snorted and whispered in his ear, her breath sweet as orchids:

"Men, you can't spoil them. If you give them too much at once, they won't appreciate it. As for the rest... we'll see how you behave later. Now, go to sleep."

After saying that, Lin Wan raised her head and gently pecked Lu Ci's lips, who was in a daze, before closing her eyes contentedly.

Lu Ci was stunned for a long time, then couldn't help but chuckle softly.

This little girl, even though she's just a half-baked novice herself, insists on putting on a green tea act like a seasoned love expert in front of him.

However, this contrast between naivety and allure is indeed extremely captivating.

"Fine, you win."

Lu Ci smiled and shook his head, not pushing his luck any further.

The next morning.

Lu Ci sat up in bed, rubbing his throbbing temples.

He did drink quite a bit last night. His old classmates took turns pliing him with a lot of foreign liquor at the bar, and then he drank red wine with Lin Wan afterward. The combination of these two types of liquor had an unusually strong aftereffect.

He subconsciously reached out and touched the spot next to him; Lin Wan had obviously already gotten up and left.

Lu Ci threw off the covers and walked out of the room. The living room was quiet, and Sha Dan was lying on the cat tree, lazily swishing its tail.

When Lu Ci walked to the dining table, he saw a sandwich wrapped in plastic wrap and a cup of warm milk on it.

There was also a pink sticky note pressed under the cup.

Lu Ci took it out and saw that it was written in the girl's neat and beautiful handwriting:

"Lazybones, I'm going to work now! When you go out, remember to lock the door from the inside and put the key under the doormat outside."

Remember to call or text me when you wake up! If you dare to back out now, I'll kill you! (งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง⁼³₌₃」

At the very end of the note, there was also an extremely vivid and adorable drawing of a boxing pose.

Lu Ci couldn't help but chuckle softly.

He walked to the sofa and picked up the phone he had carelessly tossed on it the night before.

The screen had just lit up.

Accompanied by a series of extremely dense vibration notifications, countless unread messages and missed calls flooded the screen like a waterfall, leaving Lu Ci completely dumbfounded.

He opened the call log and saw ten missed calls from Shen Nian!

Not only that, there were also three missed calls from Shen Man, and two phone calls from her childhood friend Chen Feng.

Lu Ci patted his forehead, feeling a bit of a headache.

A while ago, he got annoyed because Shen Man would call him at 9 or 11 o'clock every night, so he simply switched his phone to vibrate mode.

I stayed up too late last night and left my phone on the sofa in the living room, which is why I didn't hear any of them.

He quickly opened the software, and Shen Nian's chat box was already marked with an extremely glaring red number "99+".

"Brother Lu, when are you coming back?"

"Brother Lu, it's already midnight, isn't the bar still open?"

"You're not not coming back, are you...?"

"Answer the phone, I'm so worried about you T_T"

Looking at the messages sent from late last night until early this morning, filled with the girl's anxious attachment and fear of being abandoned, Lu Ci couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt.

He quickly typed a message and replied: "I drank too much last night and didn't hear my phone ring. I'm going back now."

After replying to Shen Nian, Lu Ci didn't bother with Shen Man's missed calls. He quickly washed up and finished the sandwich on the table in a few bites.

He then pushed open the door and walked out of the apartment, locked the door from the inside, and put the key under the doormat outside.

Lu Ci took out his phone, snapped a picture of the floor mat, and sent it to Lin Wan.

All told, this was the first time they had sent a message on WeChat in the four or five years since they added each other after graduating from high school.

"The key is safe. Thank you so much, Boss Lin, for taking me in last night and feeding me this morning. [Image]"

Less than half a minute later, Lin Wan replied with a message.

It was an extremely vivid selfie.

In the photo, Lin Wan is wearing an extremely formal and fitted bank business suit, with her employee badge hanging on her chest. She is sitting at a spacious workstation, and when her supervisor isn't looking, she playfully sticks out her tongue at the camera.

Lu Ci then remembered that she had mentioned it during their chat yesterday. After graduating from university, she was admitted to a municipal bank in Jiangcheng and is now a respectable white-collar worker in the financial industry.

Lu Ci smiled, put away his phone, hailed a ride-hailing car, and headed straight for Shen Nian's apartment.

Just as I got into the car, my phone vibrated; it was Shen Nian replying to my message.

"You jerk! I couldn't sleep all night waiting for you! I thought you'd abandoned me and run away, and wouldn't talk to me anymore! (｀ﾍ´)=3"

This girl is getting bolder and bolder, and she's becoming more and more willing to express her emotions to him.

If we go back, how am I supposed to comfort her...?
