The Time-Limited Love and Marriage -
Chapter 106
Chapter 106: Chapter 106
"Young Master Si, do you have any instructions?" Jiang Moxi’s emotions did not fluctuate, her phoenix eyes still cold and distant.
But without the cover-up of heavy makeup, her stunningly beautiful face just barged into Si Lin’s sight.
"You..."
Si Lin wanted to say something, but Jiang Moxi’s beauty was so invasive that he momentarily forgot his words.
"If Young Master Si has nothing else, I will go back to work." Unable to wait for a continuation, Jiang Moxi turned to leave.
At that moment, Si Lin suddenly spoke, "The person who recently tampered with the data, it was you, wasn’t it?"
Jiang Moxi paused, turning back, her gaze growing colder by several degrees, "How did you find out?"
Her data alterations were not very obvious; logically, they shouldn’t have been detected by anyone.
Yet Si Lin could still see through them?
"Not only did I find out, but I also know you blurred the background of all students, hoping that when the time comes to join the Information Security Department, no one would guess you’re the Justice Hacker."
Si Lin’s lips curled, the cold wind blowing his unbuttoned shirt open at the collar, revealing a section of his collarbone, exuding a sinister temptation.
Jiang Moxi suddenly scoffed at Si Lin, "What do you want, and you want me to leave Third Master Fu?"
In her eyes, Si Lin was always a pragmatist, anything could be used for bartering.
Just like last time...
Si Lin stared at the woman’s face that was both seductive and innocent, his lips curved in a cynical arc.
"Last time this method was already used, this time let’s change it up. Tomorrow, I have a blind date, you help me block it."
Thinking of the last time when Si Lin had kept his word and not revealed her identity to anyone, Jiang Moxi asked him, "What do you want me to do?"
He looked her over from head to toe, her alluring face making him chuckle, "You don’t need to do anything, just this face alone is enough to infuriate many."
Jiang Moxi: "..."
So she had a face to infuriate others?
Jiang Moxi deeply resented this arrangement, so even upon returning to Tianqin Bay, her face still displayed ’annoyance’.
"What’s wrong? You look so provoking!"
Fu Youhan must have been back for a while; he had already changed into a bathrobe, his hair appeared wet, and his dark eyes were intently staring at her, the gaze somewhat intense.
Jiang Moxi ignored the man’s intense gaze and casually said, "I just saw injustice on the road and drew my sword to help."
"What injustice did you see?" Fu Youhan furrowed his brows.
Thus, Jiang Moxi talked about how she helped Ling Hua vent her anger tonight.
Naturally, regarding what happened after with Si Lin, she chose to keep that hidden.
She wasn’t foolish, knowing well the discord between Fu Youhan and Si Lin; how could she bring up Si Lin voluntarily?
During the casual conversation, Jiang Moxi also noticed several exquisite gift boxes on the table.
However, she didn’t associate them with herself.
At this moment, after listening to her story of helping Ling Hua, Fu Youhan smirked, "Well done, here’s a reward for you."
He casually pointed to the gift boxes on the table.
Jiang Moxi wasn’t pretentious; she opened one of them to find a very attractive set of tea cups made of Bavarian porcelain from Germany, with gilded edges adding a luxurious touch.
Jiang Moxi was slightly startled; she had fibbed yesterday about using champagne glasses to drink water because she had never used beautiful cups.
Surprisingly, Fu Youhan took it seriously and even mentioned he would gift her a few sets of beautiful cups someday.
And today, he put his words into action...
As Jiang Moxi stared at the beautiful cups, lost in thought, Fu Youhan had already started urging her.
"What are you dazed about? Hurry up and open the others."
So, Jiang Moxi went on to open the remaining boxes.
Inside was a complete set of silver coffee cups, royal Albert sweet violet cups, beloved white porcelain cups by the nationals, and the cartoon cups favored by young people...
After looking through several sets of cups, waves of emotion began rippling across the calm lake of Jiang Moxi’s heart.
No one had ever done so much for her over a casual remark.
Even though she knew this might be one of Fu Youhan’s usual tricks to charm women, and even though she knew, it was a vortex she should not get caught in, it still seemed like she couldn’t free herself...
As she was lost in thought staring at those beautiful cups, Fu Youhan was whispering by her side.
"For now, these are all the pretty cups I found, I’ll collect more for you whenever I see better ones later."
Jiang Moxi really wanted to ask Fu Youhan, was he this nice to every woman he’s been with before?
But she couldn’t bring herself to ask and was afraid to hear the answer she didn’t want to hear from Fu Youhan.
So the next second, she grabbed the collar of the man’s robe and kissed him.
Fu Youhan, feeling her passion, naturally took the initiative, kissing her while carrying her to the bedroom.
Amidst the flirtation, she heard the man’s husky voice ask her, "What were you talking to Si Lin about just now?"
This question jolted Jiang Moxi back to reality.
Fu Youhan saw the astonished expression that appeared on Jiang Moxi’s seductive face, and his expression grew colder.
"I didn’t follow you. It was Ye Chen who happened to see you talking at the door and took a photo to gossip with me!"
Of course, Ye Chen’s original words weren’t nice; he said, "Brother Han, your little house flower is about to stray."
Fu Youhan didn’t believe Ye Chen’s nonsense, but the photo of Jiang Moxi and Si Lin standing very close together made it hard not to think otherwise.
So he had been waiting for Jiang Moxi to bring up Si Lin on her own, and after waiting for quite a while, she hadn’t mentioned anything.
He even told himself not to care about these things, as he and Jiang Moxi were not truly connected at heart.
But all his mental preparation crumbled eventually, and his query blurted out.
At this moment, Jiang Moxi’s hesitation to answer made him even more irritable.
"What? Is it that hard to speak?" he said from a position of superiority, with a tone of sarcasm and fierceness.
Jiang Moxi came back to her senses, quickly saying, "You’re overthinking it. I was just thinking that I merely bumped into him at the entrance of Night Color, and I can’t even recall what we talked about."
Fu Youhan deeply gazed into Jiang Moxi’s eyes and after a while, his lips hooked into a smile, seemingly satisfied with her answer.
"Remember not to contact him privately from now on."
"I know," Jiang Moxi smiled and went along with it.
As long as she took care of this favor, she would avoid Si Lin if she saw him in the future.
Fu Youhan received a satisfactory answer and sank deeper into the abyss...

The next afternoon, as Jiang Moxi was leaving the school, a Porsche stopped beside her.
Si Lin took off his sunglasses, smiling at Jiang Moxi, "Didn’t forget our appointment from yesterday, did you?"
"I haven’t forgotten. Shall we go now?"
Si Lin nodded, and Jiang Moxi got into the car.
"Do I need to dress up? Or should I slap your blind date?"
It was Jiang Moxi’s first time fending off unwanted suitors, and she lacked experience.
Si Lin laughed, "No need, no need; we’re not about to get into a gangster fight, you just need to stay by my side."
But Jiang Moxi had never imagined that Si Lin would actually take her back to the Si Family...
