Chapter 19: Chapter 19 Ex-Boyfriend (1) Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios When Bo Yan approached, Xia Siyu was a bit shocked. She was no fool, but a predator. After all, having been in the industry for years, she could tell what kind of look a man had for her with just a glance. At this moment, Bo Yan’s expression remained indifferent, his gaze still calm, but beneath that calmness in his eyes, there was clearly a straightforward, male impulse towards a woman! This feeling had nothing to do with love, nor with any other emotion, it was pure sexual attraction. Direct, fiery, naked, teasing. Of course, this might also be a test, a form of intimidation. Even, he was using this hint of tease to force her to retreat! But Xia Siyu wouldn’t step back! Did he think that with this little trick, he could make her retreat, could suppress her? He was dreaming! What kind of situations hadn’t your sister Xia been in? Was she afraid of his threats? She neither retreated nor hid, her lips curving up, a trace of sarcastic amusement showing. Her eyes grew lazy and even carried a touch of mockery. The meaning in her gaze was: Come on if you dare! The one who flinches is the cur! However, Bo Yan didn’t heed her challenging gaze; he really did get closer and closer until she could even feel his warm breath. Ten centimeters, five centimeters, three centimeters—if she didn’t move back, he would definitely kiss her on her lips! What to do? Should she retreat, or truly challenge him, refusing to move even as he neared the moment of closeness? Was she really going to naively stand there and let him take advantage of her? “Siyu!” Caught in a dilemma, someone finally came to her rescue. It was Wei Jingjing, who had taken a call earlier and, upon learning that the necklace was found, had left but didn’t see her in the parking lot. After not answering her call, Wei Jingjing feared something had happened and hurried back. The moment she returned, from a distance, she saw Bo Yan standing under the willow by the river with her. And it seemed like Bo Yan was about to—kiss her? Wait… Bo Yan? In the past few years, Wei Jingjing had dealt with a fair share of messy scandals for her, but none had ever been as shocking as what she was witnessing! Wasn’t Xia Siyu his enemy? Didn’t Bo Yan look down on her? How could these two be… Hearing Wei Jingjing’s voice, Xia Siyu instantly relaxed from her tense state. Now that there was a way out, she naturally took a small step back and quickly called out, “I’m here.” But as she prepared to step back, Bo Yan suddenly reached out, grabbing her wrist! Bo Yan’s fingers were long with distinct knuckles and cool tips, which brought a bit of refreshment amidst the somewhat hot summer. But his grip was strong, holding her wrist firmly, making it impossible for her to leave immediately. Xia Siyu was startled, and in the moment she turned her head, the corner of his lips lightly brushed against her cheek. Bo Yan’s upper lip was slightly thin with attractive lip lines, the lower lip thick and soft, slightly moist. This shape of lips didn’t make him seem too cold, nor overly sensual. Even though it was just a graze across her cheek, it felt like electric currents, paralyzing her, afraid that if she got any closer, he would directly seal her lips and swallow her whole. Then, Bo Yan’s mouth paused by her ear, and even without seeing his face, the hint of mockery in his words was audible: “Don’t anger me, and don’t challenge me. Otherwise…”
