Qin Zixin kept slapping Ji Lingtian on the back until Ji Lingtian let go of her.
She stood in front of him, breathing heavily, and saw how intense and unusual his blazing gaze was.
Her heartbeat began to slow down, as if she were standing on the edge of a high-altitude bouncing bridge, and her knees were slightly weak.
He quickly grabbed her waist, pressed his lips against hers like a storm again, kissed her exclamations, and swallowed up her reason.
This kind of kiss was too deep, too wonderful, too dangerous... It was different from the frivolous, teasing, and probing feeling last time. This time, he had a strong desire...
His kiss slid down boldly and passionately, tasting her beauty wantonly. As soon as Qin Zixin's guard was relaxed, he hugged her...
She really couldn't resist this man.
…
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
morning.
Qin Zixin slowly woke up from her sleep.
Her cheeks turned red and she instinctively glanced at the place next to her.
The other side of the bed was empty, no trace at all.
Suddenly, the unfamiliar color of the sheets, the unfamiliar interior decoration, and the ambiguous environment dominated by pink brought her back to reality...
She finally realized that she had just been dreaming.
It turned out to be a long, long dream, and it all happened really...but, this dream already happened a long time ago.
She didn't expect that she could still remember it, and remember it so clearly that after she woke up, she thought she and him were still in the past...
It's so embarrassing, how could I even think of such a thing...
Her cheeks were so red that they were hot. Qin Zixin sat up holding her crimson cheeks.
"woke up?"
Qin Zixin was startled by the sudden low-alcohol male voice.
Qin Zixin suddenly raised her eyes and met Ji Lingtian who was shaving.
Ji Lingtian obviously saw Qin Zixin's red cheeks and frowned slightly, "What's wrong? Are you sick?"
God, if he knew what she was thinking just now, she would be ashamed to live in this world...
At this moment, Qin Zixin wanted to find a hole in the ground for him to crawl into, but fortunately he didn't know anything.
She deliberately tilted her head and replied vaguely, "A little uncomfortable."
"Have you forgotten that you slept poorly? You fell off the sofa last night and slept on the carpet all night... How can you be comfortable now?"
After Ji Lingtian finished speaking, he walked into the bathroom and continued shaving.
Qin Zixin slapped her forehead in annoyance. It's really embarrassing that she was embarrassed by him. What's wrong with her sleeping phase? He used to say that she was cute when sleeping!
Wait, why did she think of the past things between her and him again? It seemed to happen more and more frequently recently...
baffling!!
Qin Zixin opened the quilt angrily and jumped out of bed.
After jumping out of bed, she realized that she was still wearing his shirt, and he happened to walk out of the bathroom at this moment, and his eyes fell directly on her.
She was completely covered with one of his loose shirts, and her slender legs were exposed. Even though she knew that he had no feelings for her, standing in front of him ambiguously dressed like this made her very embarrassed and embarrassed.
"Uh, I..."
Ji Lingtian looked away as naturally as he did last night, and said calmly, "The waiter has ironed your wet clothes last night and brought them to you. The clothes are in the bathroom... Come out after you change. I have something to talk to you about.
explain."
She didn't know why, but when Ji Lingtian's eyes passed over her body without any interest, she felt some inexplicable loss in her heart.
She held the hem of his shirt tightly with her hands, lowered her head, and walked into the bathroom.
…
Not long after, Qin Zixin finished washing herself, changed clothes and walked out of the bathroom.
Ji Lingtian had already changed into casual clothes and was sitting on the sofa, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, as if waiting for her.
Qin Zixin, who rarely saw Ji Lingtian in a casual look, couldn't help but feel slightly dazed.
He has always been reserved and calm, but now he takes off his usually rigid suit, making people feel very young instantly.
In fact, the passage of more than ten years has not left many traces of time on his handsome face. He is just as deep as ever. Unlike Guan Hao's deepness, his depth is caused by the darkness he has experienced in these years.
Stacked.
Qin Zixin sat on the sofa opposite Ji Lingtian, "Well, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"There's something I want you to tell Ran Ran for me."
"Ran Ran?"
Whenever she heard the word "Ran Ran" from his mouth, her heart would always tremble.
"Yes, tell her... let her go to the hospital for another check-up. Her body should be fine. There is nothing wrong with the surgery Qiao Che performed on her."
"What?" Qin Zixin's eyes widened in shock, "Are you serious?"
Ji Lingtian looked forward faintly and took a sip of red wine. "I went to Qiao Che's master and wanted him to do the surgery on Ran Ran, but he said that Qiao Che had already done the surgery on Ran Ran."
"But Qiao Che didn't really help Ran Ran do the surgery..."
"But, he is a doctor."
"I know he is a doctor without professional ethics."
Ji Lingtian glanced at Qin Zixin coldly, "In his career as a doctor, he has never done anything that violated medical ethics... He is no exception to Ranran."
Qin Zixin was already happy for Ran Ran in her heart, but she still couldn't believe it, "Are you sure?"
"I'm sure... I asked Qiao Si. In fact, Qiao Che didn't know about the harm to Ran Ran's child at that time. Later, Ran Ran was sent to the hospital, and Qiao Che even tried his best to save her... Afterwards, Qiao Che even blamed Qiao Che for this.
Si, it’s just that Qiao Si blackmailed him by exposing Qiao Che’s identity.”
"Why don't you call Ran Ran yourself?"
Ji Lingtian put down his wine glass and stood up, "I'm not suitable to contact her."
"You are not suitable because Guan Hao doesn't allow it, and Guan Hao doesn't allow it because there is something wrong in your heart. You are still coveting your brother's wife!"
Ji Lingtian turned around suddenly, his gentle eyes suddenly became sharp, and he stared at Qin Zixin coldly, "Why, when will you take care of my private affairs? Oh... I forgot, you still love me
Well, are you now testing whether I have given up on Ran Ran, so as to judge whether there is any possibility of our relationship continuing?"
Qin Zixin's body shook slightly.
Ji Lingtian's words were as sharp as a blade, catching Qin Zixin off guard.
Qin Zixin suddenly felt that she could no longer pretend to be strong. No matter how strong she pretended to be, as long as Ji Lingtian fought against her, she would be covered in bruises and scars.
At this moment, she remembered the morning when they were together for the first time——
The warm sunshine in the early morning shines into the hotel room, the breeze blows the light blue curtains, and the white flowers on the windowsill occasionally fall on the bedside...
Her back was pressed against his bare chest, held by his strong arms from behind.
Her face turned red and she didn't even dare to turn her head and look at him.
He kissed her cheek and apologized softly, "I'm sorry...I was too impulsive last night..."
Her body trembled slightly and she curled up.
He supported himself and turned her body over.
"Why are you crying?" Seeing the tears overflowing from the corners of her eyes, he said distressedly, "Fool... every woman has a day like this..."
She was still sobbing, and her eyes blurred by tears prevented her from seeing him clearly.
He gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and wiped away the tears from the bottom of her eyes. After she could look at him clearly, he said softly, "Don't you like being with me?"
She bit her lip lightly, not daring to answer.
He gently removed a strand of hair from her cheek and gave her the ultimate feeling of care, "You hate me?"
She shook her head.
"Then tell me, what are you afraid of?"
Her tears flowed again.
He panicked and hurriedly wiped away the tears that kept overflowing from her eyes, and spat out helplessly, "Damn it, don't cry. Tell me what you have in mind..."
She finally choked up and spit out, "I don't want to be one of your many women."
"Idiot, I didn't regard you as one of them..."
"Then what do you think of me?"
"friend."
She lowered her eyes in despair.
He chuckled, held her chin, and added, "I'm talking about—girlfriend."
She raised her eyes suddenly, her vision blurred by tears filled with disbelief.
He impatiently wiped away the tears that overflowed from the corners of her eyes, and said gently, "From now on, I will be good to you. As long as you are willing, we can always be together."
"But I want to leave my first time to my future partner..."
"Then can I take the liberty to apply to you to be your future significant other?"
His sincere and serious tone made her burst into laughter.
He gently held her flawless face and looked at her affectionately. Then, he lowered his head and kissed her lips gently...
She started to feel a little shy...
Gradually, her hands climbed up to his neck, and she unskillfully explored her tongue to entangle with him...
Vaguely, she heard him tell her, "I will take care of you for the rest of my life."
…
Memories are interrupted and return to reality.
Qin Zixin looked at Junsi's face, which was full of disgust and contempt, and couldn't help but hold her thigh tightly with her hands.
She thought that the defense she had worked so hard to build over the years could prevent her from revealing any emotion in front of him...
But only at this moment did she realize that she hadn't done it yet.
There were faint tears gathering in her eyes, but she had turned her face away a second ago, not letting him see her embarrassed look at the moment.
She knew that if he saw her, he would only laugh at her and despise her.
She said that she would never be weak in front of him again, even if she was weak, she would never be in front of him...never.
However, she really has no power to fight back against him now... She really has no strength at all.
"If you want me to pass it on, I will tell Ran Ran that you can go out."
"Let's have lunch together, Qianqian wants to see us."
Qin Zixin's throat was choked and she didn't answer.
Ji Lingtian has left coldly.
…
After hearing the sound of closing the door, Qin Zixin folded her hands around her chest and slowly squatted down.
Tears burst out of her eyes unbridled. She kept reaching out to wipe them away, but they kept overflowing...
The floor-to-ceiling mirror in the hall showed her cowardly and embarrassed side. She pursed her lips, looked at herself in the mirror and asked herself in her heart...
What did she do wrong? Why does he hate her so much?
She is not as pure and noble as Ran Ran. That is because her environment when she was young has destined her to have a dark side in her life. She has no choice...
He didn't like her, and she didn't care. Anyway, after that incident, she knew that there was no way she and him would end...
She never expected to be with him. After so many years, she had already become accustomed to being alone...
But, why did he come to hurt her again?
Even if there is no ending, at least there were good memories, right?
"My mouth is still trying to be brave, but my eyes are no longer able to support me. I want to find someone..."
The soft ringtone of the mobile phone suddenly came.
Qin Zixin took out her mobile phone and glanced at the number displayed on the screen. She quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and took several deep breaths in succession.
When the phone almost stopped ringing, she picked it up.
"Hello……"
"sister."
"Ran Ran."
"Sister, why does your voice sound like this?"
Qin Zixin stood up and said in a slightly panicked tone, "Well, maybe I caught a cold last night... You know, the temperature difference between day and night here on Hn Island is huge."
"Sister, I miss you... After you and Mr. Ji are on vacation, come to New York to see me. Anyway, Qianqian is about to go on summer vacation..."
"Okay, I'll go to New York to stay with you if I have nothing to do."
"Sister, no, your voice doesn't sound like you have a cold..."
Qin Zixin deliberately took a piece of paper and pinched her nose to make her nasal sound worse, "Oh, don't worry about my cold. I have something serious to tell you..."
"What's going on?"
"Did you know that Qiao Che may have performed the surgery on you?"
"What?"
"You asked Guan Hao to take you to the hospital for a checkup... Qiao Che did the surgery for you."
