His long, powerful arms pinned her against the corner of the sofa, encircling her.
The faint scent of jade and agarwood lingered around her neck and behind her ears, settling on her skin.
Light as it was, the sensation was incredibly strong.
This sudden movement, even for Ying Zijin, caused her thoughts to pause briefly.
She had never been able to predict Fu Yunshen’s next move, not that she had tried.
Ying Zijin slowly lifted her head.
With this elevation, the distance between them narrowed even further.
Their foreheads touched, their breaths intertwined.
So close that even the tips of their noses brushed against each other.
She could clearly see the man’s naturally charming peach-blossom eyes, slightly curved, as if brimming with an entire galaxy.
Inside them was only the reflection of her.
“I heard from Xiu Yu that the boys chasing you at school could form an entire soccer team of eleven,” Fu Yunshen said casually, “They even assigned positions, some as forwards, some as goalkeepers, and they’ve even played matches in secret.”
Ying Zijin’s mind was still momentarily frozen, and after a while, she responded with a single word: “Hmm?”
Xiu Yu had a particular hobby of listing all the boys who had sent her love letters at school and organizing them into teams.
And with this organization, eleven soccer teams were formed.
The boys didn’t have any objections; in fact, they even enjoyed it.
Indeed, they had played matches, which later got them caught by the director of moral education and forced to write self-criticism.
“So I told her yesterday that I’m planning to join the soccer team,” Fu Yunshen’s eyebrows raised with a casual tone, “But I think I’ll be a one-man team, playing both forward and goalkeeper.”
As he spoke, his arm was still around her, not loosening, but tightening even more.
Ying Zijin didn’t speak.
She was just looking at the reflection of herself in his eyes, her gaze becoming slightly blurred.
“And then—” Fu Yunshen began again, his voice low and coaxing, “Yaoyao, look, we’ve known each other for this long, couldn’t you give me the privilege of liking me first?”
“Thump, thump, thump.”
Her heartbeat became clear at this moment.
This was the first time Ying Zijin experienced such a strong heartbeat.
Although she didn’t know what love was,
at this moment, she felt it.
The feeling known as “joy” erupted from the bottom of her heart, like fireworks blooming.
Ying Zijin slightly turned her head to avoid his direct gaze.
Her eyelashes trembled gently, her tone still smooth, but with different emotions: “What do you mean?”
“Falling for someone for the first time, I didn’t know how to tell her,” Fu Yunshen released one hand and slowly caressed her face, laughing softly, “I never went to school, and in other things, I’ve learned on my own.”
“But when it comes to liking you, I’ve asked many people for advice, afraid to make a single mistake.”
This was the first time he had uttered the words “I like you.”
“Perhaps it started as teasing you, but later, every word I said was from the heart,” Fu Yunshen paused, speaking softly, “I only treat well those I like.”
“I should not be this delighted by this world, but then you arrived.”
He had thought that he would never say such things to anyone in his life.

Even without a loved one, he didn’t care.
No one requires that one must live this life with a partner.
To him, it was better to be alone than to settle.
But then, she arrived.
Afterwards, his world was filled with light.
Warm and dazzling.
Ying Zijin never knew that just listening to him talk could sound so pleasant.
Her heartbeat slowed down from its wild race on a freeway to a gentle calm: “Serious?”
“Serious, very serious,” Fu Yunshen slowly tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear, laughing again, his voice low, “I wanted to kiss you right away, but you didn’t agree, so I held back.”
He respected her.
Even with a strong urge inside, he would restrain himself.
Ying Zijin pondered for a moment before speaking: “I—”
“Yaoyao, no rush,” Fu Yunshen’s finger pressed on her lips, his voice amused with a rising inflection, “How about you let me chase you, how does that sound?”
“The pleasures enjoyed by other girls, our Yaoyao shouldn’t miss out on.”
Hearing this, Ying Zijin’s body relaxed a little.
Her phoenix-like eyes lit up: “Okay, then try chasing me, I’m quite difficult to pursue.”
After saying this, the girl’s hand climbed onto his shoulder.
This time, it was Fu Yunshen’s body that tensed, his voice slightly hoarse: “Yaoyao?”
Ying Zijin’s hand was still resting on his shoulder, not letting go, “I’m using it to sit up.”
“…”
He really didn’t know now whether their family’s kid was doing it on purpose or not.
But whether it was the former or the latter, she always managed to effortlessly defeat him.
After sitting up, Ying Zijin took a slow breath, pulled a napkin from the coffee table, and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
“Sweating?” Fu Yunshen glanced sideways, “I don’t think I did anything just now——”
Before he could finish his sentence, his foot was stepped on.
Ying Zijin glanced in the direction of the kitchen, then turned her head, “Shut up.”
“Okay.” Fu Yunshen’s lips curved up, “I’m pursuing you now, I’ll listen to whatever you say.”
Ying Zijin picked up the remote control and switched to Grape Platform.
Today just happened to be the last episode of “Youth 202,” where the audience would choose the final contestant to debut.
Yun Heyue’s votes were in a league of their own; there was no suspense about her debuting in the C position.
The previous shock was too much; she needed to watch the show to take her mind off things.
Fu Yunshen was watching the TV, but his attention was always on the girl.
After a while, he still made a request, “Can we hold hands?”
Ying Zijin paused, glanced at him, and extended her hand, offering her index finger, “Here, you can have one finger.”
Fu Yunshen’s eyes dropped to the girl, his lips curving up as he chuckled softly, “That’s not too bad.”
He held her finger in his hand, his palm soft and warm, but it felt different from before.
Ying Zijin’s gaze returned to the TV.
Twenty minutes later.
Wen Fengmian emerged from the kitchen.
By this time, both people on the sofa were watching TV and sitting far apart, showing no signs of what had happened earlier.
The kitchen’s sound insulation wasn’t strong.
But after Fu Yunshen had made his decision, he used his Inner Strength to seal the kitchen door.
That way, Wen Fengmian couldn’t hear anything.
“Yaoyao, Yunshen, come eat,” Wen Fengmian said as he untied his apron, not noticing anything unusual until he saw the two sitting on opposite sides of the table, which seemed odd, “…Why are you two sitting so far apart?”
Ying Zijin yawned, and lied quite seriously, “He just made me angry.”
Fu Yunshen’s eyes sparkled, agreeably going along, “That’s right, uncle, I bullied her, and she’s still angry at me.”
Wen Fengmian shook his head helplessly, “It’s spoiling.”
Fu Yunshen picked up his chopsticks, his lips curling up.
Indeed, it was his spoiling.

Five days later.
March 24.
Because Fu Yunshen had Yun Shan replace all the invitations issued by Ying Zhenting, Shanghai City’s social elites were abuzz with the news these days.
Even though Ying Zhenting kept the media quiet, he couldn’t silence so many people.
However, other families, fearing the Ying Family’s influence in Shanghai City, didn’t dare to talk publicly and only discussed it as gossip among themselves.
Jing Hongzhen was no longer able to mix with the social elites, but she still had her old connections and found out about the issue.
That day, after disguising herself, she went straight to Ying Corporation.
Ying Zhenting originally didn’t want to let her in, fearing exposure.
But in the end, he sent away his secretary and assistant and took Jing Hongzhen to the rooftop garden.
“What do you mean by this, Ying Zhenting?” Jing Hongzhen’s gaze was cold, “What are you going to do with her now?”
Why had she sent Ying Yuexuan to the Ying Family?
It was so that Ying Yuexuan could replace Ying Zijin, taking over the position of the heiress of the Ying Family.
That way, Ying Yuexuan would have the right to inherit Ying Corporation.
Social circles value status when it comes to marriage alliances.
A foster daughter, how could she marry well?
“I’ve already sent someone to suppress it,” Ying Zhenting was also frustrated, “The capital doesn’t know yet, don’t worry, the marriage with the Yuan family will definitely happen.”
Cooperation with Ying Corporation had already fallen through in many cases, and the reason it hadn’t plummeted too severely was because of his collaboration with that foreign company.
As long as Ying Yuexuan marries into the Yuan family, even if they find out later, it would be too late.
Jing Hongzhen’s face eased somewhat, and her tone softened, “Zhenting, I know you’re tired too, but you always have to consider our daughter, you can’t let others look down on her.”
Outside the garden, Ying Yuexuan, who had just come up, paused, her heartbeat stopping in an instant.
Then, her face turned deathly pale.
She wasn’t just any foster daughter, she was actually an illegitimate child?!
