Chapter 86 Solution

A chill mixed with grievance surged up.

I know he's angry, but this way... is so hurtful!

"Lin Yan, calm down!" I grabbed his rebellious wrist tightly, and my voice became higher and more serious than ever before. "If you lose your temper with me like this now, or even... 'punish' me in this way, then Fang Qing's goal will be achieved! She just wants to sow discord between us! Make us suspicious of each other, make us quarrel! You're playing into her hands!"

The articles I read recently about communication and emotional management between couples suddenly flooded into my mind.

We always vented our emotions first (usually Lin Yan’s jealousy and possessiveness) and then solved the problem.

But this time, I was really scared.

We are afraid that this out-of-control emotion will really hurt us, and that one day it will be irreversible.

Lin Yan's movements suddenly stopped.

His grip on me loosened a little, but his body remained tense.

He raised his head, and the eyes that always showed control and confidence were now bloodshot, with red eye sockets, surging with pain, anger, and... a hint of fragility?

"Yeah..." His voice was hoarse and nasal, as if he was trying hard to suppress the huge pain, "I should believe you..."

Before he could finish his words, a hot tear as big as a bean rolled down from his red eyes without warning and hit the back of my hand.

That tear burned my heart like a branding iron.

All my anger and grievances were extinguished in an instant, leaving only heartache and panic.

Lin Yan, who usually handles everything with ease and has a strong aura, actually cried because of a little perfume smell on me?

"Oh...husband..." I frantically raised my hand to wipe his tears, my voice softening. "Why are you crying again...every time you cry it's because of this...where's your usual calm demeanor? Huh?"

Lin Yan buried his head in the crook of my neck like a wounded large dog, his voice muffled, choked with sobs and an unspeakable vulnerability:

"I... I can't control it... When I think about... When I think about someone touching you, someone coveting you, someone wanting to take you away from me... I can't help but imagine those scenes in my mind... When I think about you smiling at someone else, maybe with someone else... I feel so uncomfortable that I'm going crazy!"

He hugged me tightly, his arms squeezing me so hard it hurt, as if I would disappear if he let go.

My heart was struck hard by his undisguised confession, and it felt sour and soft.

"But how can I be with someone else?"

I held his face in my hands, forcing him to look into my eyes. I said, word by word, with utmost seriousness, "Lin Yan, look at me! I like you! From the beginning to the end, it's only you! My heart is so small, it's already been filled to the brim with you. How can there be room for anyone else?"

Lin Yan looked at me with red eyes, filled with uncertainty and a deep-seated fear. "Then...if it weren't for that fire escape incident...if I hadn't been clinging to you and taking care of you later...would you still like me?"

His voice trembled. "I... I don't think... there's anything about me that can make you like me right away? Except... my persistence?"

His question made my heart ache.

It turns out that in his heart, our relationship is based on "accidents" and "care"?

Does he think he got me by "pestering" me?

"Lin Yan!" I held his face, my tone more serious than ever before, "If you think so, you're being too stubborn! You underestimate yourself, and you underestimate my feelings for you!"

I took a deep breath, looked directly into his red eyes, and poured out my heart: "No matter if there was a fire escape or not, no matter if you took care of me or not, I like Lin Yan as a person! I like that you always like to control me, I like to see you pretend to be calm when you are jealous of me, I like the way you usually act with ease outside but like to act like a spoiled child in front of me... I even like you..."

My face flushed, and my voice lowered, but still clear, "...I love the way you fuck me in bed! I love it so much!"

I paused, then said more firmly, "Lin Yan, my feelings for Chen Rui are not cheap, nor are they easy to come by! If I'm with you just because you're nice to me and take care of me, wouldn't that make me seem too superficial and indecisive? I like you because you are Lin Yan! Because you are you! That's why I like you! Even those things of yours that others might think of as shortcomings or minus points are reasons for me to like you even more! Do you understand?"

Lin Yan was completely stunned.

He stared at me blankly, his red eyes filled with violent emotions: shock, disbelief, ecstasy... In the end, all the emotions turned into an astonishingly bright light, like fireworks exploding in the night sky.

The gloom and pain in his eyes were instantly dispelled by the light.

"Ruirui..." His voice was hoarse, filled with great joy and relief.

The next second, he suddenly lowered his head and kissed my lips fiercely.

This kiss was no longer the plundering kiss of punishment and anger, but was instead filled with cherishment that had been lost and regained, surging love, and a sense of satisfaction that felt like the soul had been completely soothed.

He kissed me deeply and urgently, as if he wanted to rub me into his bones and blood.

After a long while, he finally stepped back a little, resting his forehead against mine, panting, his eyes filled with undisguised pride and satisfaction. "Then I'm sure... you really like me."

他舔了舔自己有些红肿的嘴唇，语气带上点熟悉的、欠揍的痞气，“毕竟……能把你操得下不来床的……只有我办得到。”

I was almost amused by his sudden turn of events and his shamelessness, but seeing his face finally brighten up, my heart softened and I coaxed him, "Okay, okay, Boss Lin, you're the best, only you can do it, okay?"

"Now," the familiar, dangerous fire in Lin Yan's eyes ignited again. He picked me up and carried me sideways, striding towards the bedroom, his tone domineering and doting, "I'll satisfy you! As for those scheming villains..."

He sneered, threw me on the soft big bed, and then covered me with his body. "Let's talk about it tomorrow!"

This night's "confirmation" was particularly intense and long.

The next day, I walked into the laboratory with my sore waist supported and my steps unsteady.

Before going out, Lin Yan deliberately opened my collar and looked in the mirror, admiring with satisfaction the dense and bright kiss marks he left on my neck and collarbone last night, which were as dense and bright as medals.

"Show it." He said, like a king inspecting his territory, his tone unquestionable, "Let someone see it clearly."

I rolled my eyes helplessly, but had no choice but to do as I was told.

So, when I sat down at my workstation, those ambiguous marks under my slightly open collar, under the cold white light of the laboratory, were like some kind of silent, high-profile "MVP settlement page", announcing last night's "battle situation" and the unquestionable ownership.

Fang Qing's eyes swept across my neck several times, her expression becoming uglier and uglier, until it finally became completely gloomy, and she didn't say a word to me the entire day.

Very good. The world is peaceful.
