Chapter 130: Aloof and Cold

Once inside the car, Nan Zhi pulled away from Mu Sihan’s large hand and sat pressed against the window.

Her mind was in turmoil—not because of Nan Weiye’s attitude, but because of Mu Sihan and the mysterious person who sent her expensive gifts every year.

It seemed that Mu Sihan did not view her as a mere servant, but was single-mindedly treating her as a lover. The surprise he had prepared for her tonight was something an ordinary person could not have pulled off.

Ever since her mother’s health began to decline, Nan Zhi had longed for a pillar of support, someone who could provide her with warmth and security. However, in the past, aside from indulging her, Nan Weiye had never shown her much genuine concern. Her rebellious and disobedient behavior back then had been nothing more than an attempt to capture his attention.

Today, she had finally experienced the feeling of being protected and valued. Yet, she never expected it to come from a hot-tempered tyrant like Mu Sihan.

Nan Zhi rolled down the window and let out a long sigh.

As the car pulled up to a traffic light, a black sedan pulled up alongside her. When Nan Zhi lowered her window, the window of the other car was lowered as well.

Nan Zhi sensed a gaze that could not be ignored resting upon her. Puzzled, she looked up toward the person in the other car.

The man wore a silver mask. In the dim light, she could not make out his features, only sensing that his eyes were fixed on her.

Deep, cold, and dangerous.

Nan Zhi’s heart skipped a beat. For some reason, that man gave her an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Just as she was about to take a closer look, the window of the other car rolled up. The dark tint blocked her view entirely.

"Woman, what are you looking at out there?" Seeing that the little brat in his arms was asleep, Mu Sihan moved closer to Nan Zhi. He gripped her delicate, jade-like chin and turned her face toward him, asking in a low, rumbling voice, "Are you looking at some wild man out there?"

Wild man?

Why did this tyrant sound exactly like Xiao Kai?

"Young Master Mu, thank you for tonight."

Mu Sihan was annoyed by her polite, distant attitude. He poked her forehead with his finger. "Can you stop calling me 'Young Master Mu'? Do I not have a name?"

Nan Zhi reminded him, "I am your servant."

Who the hell wanted you to be a servant?

Mu Sihan’s face darkened, his temper on the verge of exploding, but he forcibly suppressed it. "Call me by my name."

Nan Zhi remained silent.

"Call me. If you don't, I will kiss you until you do." As he spoke, he tilted her chin upward, the delicate texture of her skin beneath his fingertips igniting a fire in his heart.

Mu Sihan cursed inwardly. What the hell was it about this damned woman that attracted him so much? Having not kissed her for a few days, he felt as if his heart were being gnawed by ants; he missed her terribly.

She was merely a bit prettier than the rest, but he had seen plenty of beautiful women. Why was he so drawn to her?

Mu Sihan narrowed his bottomless black eyes. He traced her lips with his thumb, his handsome brows arching slightly. "Do you eat sugar often?"

Nan Zhi was baffled. She swatted his hand away. "Stop messing around. You’ll wake Xiao Kai up."

"You eat sugar often, don't you?" His handsome, seductive face leaned in close to hers, his dark eyes deep as wells. She instinctively tried to pull back, but in the next second, his long arm hooked around her neck. Before she could react, her soft, fragrant lips were firmly sealed by his own.

He sucked and bit at them, his manner overbearing and forceful.

Nan Zhi felt a mix of pain and numbness. She furrowed her brows as her slender body was pressed into the corner, leaving her nowhere to hide—though she knew that even if she tried, she would not be able to escape him.

With her clear, dark eyes wide open, she found a moment to speak, her voice tinged with shame and anger. "I didn't eat any sugar!"

He raised a finely shaped brow. "You did. Otherwise, how could you be so sweet that I want to taste you again and again?"
