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

Shen Nian, who was standing to the side, panicked completely.

When she heard that her sister had been drugged, she didn't know what to say for a moment. But then, she heard her usually aloof sister humbly apologize to Brother Lu and even say "I still love you" in front of her!

A sense of crisis overwhelmed Shen Nian.

However, Lu Ci's expression remained calm and unmoved in the face of this confession.

He looked at Shen Man and gently shook his head.

"Shen Man, as an adult, you must bear the consequences of your past actions."

Lu Ci's voice was calm: "Besides, regardless of who was right or wrong in the past, we are already divorced, and that's the final result."

I've started a new life, and I'm doing quite well now. I don't need to, and don't want to, repeat the same mistakes.

Upon hearing these words, Shen Man felt a pang of pain in her heart, and combined with the effects of the medication, she collapsed to the ground.

Lu Ci took a step back, looked at Shen Man on the ground, and sighed helplessly.

"Niannian, go get her a glass of cold water first."

"Then take her to the bathroom for a cold shower to cool her down. She can't leave tonight anyway, so let her sleep in my bedroom. I'll make do on the sofa in the living room for the night."

Hearing Lu Ci's decisive rejection, Shen Nian felt much more at ease.

She nodded obediently and quickly ran to pour a large glass of ice-cold purified water.

Shen Man hurriedly drank the cold water in one gulp, and the icy temperature finally suppressed the evil fire in her body for the time being.

"Sister, can you still walk? Let me help you to the bathroom." Shen Nian reached out and supported Shen Man's arm, struggling to help her towards the bathroom.

Lu Ci sat alone on the sofa and lit a cigarette.

He took a deep breath, listening to the pattering water coming from the bathroom, and a strange feeling of irritation arose in his heart.

He genuinely couldn't understand it, and had been trying his best to avoid the Shen family during this time.

But the gears of fate seem to have jammed, how come I keep running into my ex-wife no matter where I go?

And every time they met, the scene was always dramatic and melodramatic.

Not long after, Shen Nian took the clothes into the bathroom and made sure everything was settled before coming out.

The little girl walked to the sofa with a heavy heart and sat down next to Lu Ci.

At this moment, Shen Nian's mind was in turmoil.

Although Brother Lu just decisively rejected him, they have lived together for four whole years! What if Brother Lu softens his heart one day after four years of relationship?

What if my sister puts aside all her pride and keeps pestering me?

The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became, and Shen Nian clenched her fists tightly into her hands hidden in her sleeves.

"Shen Nian, you have to work harder! You need to clearly express your feelings to Brother Lu now; you absolutely can't back down anymore!"

Shen Nian frantically cheered herself up in her heart.

She turned to look at Lu Ci's sharply defined profile, her red lips parted slightly, but she nervously swallowed her words back.

She suddenly felt a pang of regret; she should have drunk two more cans of beer earlier!

With the help of alcohol, I would definitely be able to say it all in one go, instead of being so sober that I can hear my own heartbeat clearly.

"Let's give it our all!"

Shen Nian took a deep breath and abruptly closed her eyes.

The next second, she did something that even she found daring.

She actually turned around and straddled Lu Ci's lap.

Lu Ci's astonished gaze met Shen Nian's pretty face, which was so red it looked like it could drip blood.

"Brother Lu! I like you!"

"..."

Lu Ci was completely stunned.

What a chaotic night this is!

My ex-wife was just drugged and came to my door begging to get back together, and now my ex-sister-in-law is confessing her love to me?

Looking into the girl's beautiful eyes, brimming with starlight, expectation, and nervousness, Lu Ci's throat went dry for a moment, unsure of what to say in response to this passionate affection.

However, at this ambiguous and perplexing juncture...

A crisp mechanical notification suddenly rang in Lu Ci's mind:

[Mission Requirements: Get Shen Nian, your perfect target with a 9/10 appearance rating, to say "I like you" to you personally and sincerely!]

[Task Rewards:]

1. The purple affix "The Ultimate Pull and Pull of a Scumbag" has been permanently equipped (Note: When you are single, the speed at which the opposite sex accumulates their desire to explore you and their affection for you will automatically increase by 50%)!

II. Obtain a special item: "1 box of self-defense umbrellas" (system-issued, extremely durable).

Upon hearing this unexpected announcement of the reward, Lu Ci's lips twitched violently.

To be honest, he hadn't thought about how to complete this task on his own initiative at all during this period.

But unexpectedly, despite the complicated and dramatic situation today, I actually managed to complete this task that had been stuck for so long!

Shen Nian was still waiting for an answer.

However, after a few seconds, Brother Lu just stared at her blankly without saying a word.

The courage Shen Nian had mustered just now was rapidly fading away.

A huge panic began to spread.

She didn't know how Lu Ci would answer.

The more resolute I was when I said it, the more terrified I am now.

What if he rejects her? What if he says he only sees her as a younger sister?

Will the two of them be unable to maintain the intimate daily routines they used to have? Was I really too hasty?

Shen Nian bit her lower lip, and tears of grievance gradually welled up in her eyes.

Looking at the girl's anxious and uncertain appearance, Lu Ci felt a little flustered.

Just as he sighed, preparing to say something...

"..."

A faint, yet grating, panting sound suddenly came from the bathroom.

The sound was mixed with the rushing water. At first, it was as faint as a whisper, but then it gradually grew louder and became heavy and oppressive.

Lu Ci's body froze instantly.

He was very familiar with that voice; they had lived together for four years and he had heard it many times.

But she's taking a shower alone in the bathroom right now!

That sound...

Technique?

Shen Nian, who was straddling Lu Ci's lap, was also visibly stunned for a moment.

She is, after all, an adult girl, and she had just accidentally watched those indescribable instructional videos online a few days ago.

Upon hearing that voice, and then looking at her own ambiguous position with Brother Lu...

In an instant, Shen Nian's mind automatically conjured up images that were unsuitable for children!

"oops!"

Shen Nian was so embarrassed that she wished she could disappear into the ground!

The little girl jumped up from Lu Ci's lap in a panic as if she had been electrocuted, and hurriedly sat back down in her original seat, her ears turning bright red.

Lu Ci awkwardly touched his nose and coughed to cover up his discomfort.

However, just when the two thought this was awkward enough...

The noise from the bathroom suddenly became even louder!

Even more clearly, some words began to appear in his voice.

"Lu Ci..."

The air in the living room froze completely.

Shen Nian's expression froze instantly.

She turned her head, glared at Lu Ci resentfully, then pouted and gave a heavy, dissatisfied snort:

"snort!"

Listening to that delicate, cold snort, and then to the monologue in the bathroom.

Lu Ci scratched his head helplessly:

"Uh... well, this medicine is really effective."

It's no wonder Lu Ci said that. The fact that the drug could drive the usually aloof and arrogant female CEO to this point speaks volumes about its potency.
