"You!"
Nuan Nuan turned around in a hurry, and the moment she saw the person behind her, she was instantly stunned.
Anger quickly surfaced on her face. "What right do you have to answer my call?"
As she stood up to grab her phone, Ye Yunfeng merely raised his hand, and she could only watch helplessly, unable to reach it at all.
"Do you even have a sense of responsibility?"
"You have no idea how serious this is!"
Nuan Nuan was exasperated, wanting to snatch the phone away, but in the end, she could only glare at him. The natural height difference was not something she could easily overcome.
"Give me the phone quickly! They will take my mom's life."
"I'll take responsibility for you; just give me the phone."
"You’re the one taking advantage! Your check is still blank; I haven’t filled in anything."
Nuan Nuan shouted at him angrily.
This man was simply ridiculous. They were both adults—did he think that after one night, he had to chase her for responsibility? What kind of overly dramatic man was this?
"The check is for my woman's living expenses. Since you're mine now, I certainly don't want you to suffer. Likewise, shouldn't you also take responsibility for me? Everyone in the bar knows that I, Ye San, slept with you."
Ye Yunfeng stepped closer, shamelessly cornering her against the wall with nowhere to retreat. An Nuan instinctively avoided his deep gaze, unable to believe that such words were coming from the lips of this seemingly refined and somewhat profound man.
"We're at most just a drunken mistake; there's no need to..."
"I’m not drunk."
Ye Yunfeng replied with three words, raising the phone that belonged to her in his hand.
As she watched the incoming calls flashing on the screen, Nuan Nuan took a deep breath. "I'll take responsibility; just give me the phone."
Her mother was still in someone else's hands, and she couldn't afford to think too much. She agreed first and planned to get her phone back.
Unfortunately, she underestimated Ye Yunfeng's character.
As the phone was handed to her, he swiftly grabbed her wrist and pressed it against the wall, capturing her lips with his. The kiss was fierce and demanding, only releasing her when she instinctively responded.
Finally, he let go of her hand, granting Nuan Nuan her freedom. She quickly swiped to answer the call.
"Nuan Nuan, you finally answered! Mom is begging you, just this once—it's really the last time. I’m not gambling this time; I just need to borrow some money for a business deal. We were supposed to be fine, but as soon as my shop opened, they started demanding money. Nuan Nuan…"
"Where are you?"
Nuan Nuan held the phone tightly, her heart racing—she couldn't tell if it was from anxiety or the heat that man had just ignited within her.
Upon hearing her mother provide an address, Nuan Nuan hurriedly moved to leave, only to find Ye Yunfeng still standing there, blocking her path.
"What do you want?" she demanded.
"To get married."
"Marry… marry?"
Hearing that word left An Nuan tongue-tied. This person must either be out of his mind or completely delusional. Marriage was a serious matter; could it really be something one casually mentioned?
"Marriage is not a trivial matter; I hope you will think it over carefully..."
An Nuan whispered softly, while Ye Yunfeng smiled, watching her slightly timid demeanor. He couldn't help but pinch her nose playfully.
Leaning closer to her ear, his warm breath brushed against her skin.
"Marriage is the best way to take responsibility. Are you thinking of backing out?"
"I-I’m not!"
"Since you're not, hand me your ID card now. Let's go to the civil affairs bureau to register, and I will immediately handle your mother's situation."
"You can't handle it..."
An Nuan rejected him from the bottom of her heart.
She wanted to save her mother, but the responsibility she spoke of was just a way to deceive him; she never intended to register with him at all.
Instinctively, she tried to retreat, but unfortunately, he had cornered her against the wall with no escape. His charming and exquisite face was right in front of her; she could almost touch his skin with just a slight movement.
Ye Yunfeng's deep-set eyes held a hint of teasing as he lifted her chin with one hand. "Lu An Nuan, it seems you still don't understand the benefits of marrying me."
