Chapter 48 Chapter 48 [End of the main text]...

I booked a high-end hotel not far from home, right on Wutong Old Street.

Seeing that it was still early, Xu Zhixi stopped by to visit Song Jing's hotel room.

The hotel wasn't very large, but it had a variety of room types. Song Jing needed to work at night, so Qi Mu had booked him an executive suite for convenience. It had two separate bedrooms, a multi-functional conference room, and a media room, taking up an entire floor.

The hotel housekeeper pushed open the door, stood aside, and respectfully welcomed the two people in.

After Xu Zhixi entered, he casually looked around and noticed the open door of the conference room with the lights on. He turned to Song Jing and asked, "Are you going to be busy later?"

Song Jing gestured to the people behind him, and the hotel manager immediately nodded, closed the door, and retreated.

Song Jing: "I'll be busy for a while."

Xu Zhixi put her bag on the sofa and asked, "Why are you here when you're so busy?"

Song Jing sat down on the sofa, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her over. From this angle, he needed to look up to see the soft lines of her jaw. "If I don't come over, you won't be angry?"

Xu Zhixi secretly shook his hands: "Why should I be angry?"

Song Jing chuckled, and with a little force on his hands, she sat on his lap.

He held her waist, his chin resting on her shoulder, his warm breath coming out as he spoke: "Why did you suddenly think of bringing me to meet your dad, huh?"

Xu Zhixi lowered his head slightly: "Don't you want to see it?"

"Yes." He paused and continued, "If you are willing to forgive me now, I might want it even more."

Xu Zhixi turned to look at him: "Forgive me or not, you've done everything, without missing a single thing." Does the word "forgiveness" she said still matter now? He had done everything he should have done, whether he should have done it or not.

Now, what is the difference between the two of them and before.

No, there is a difference.

At least at the beginning, she felt that the distance between the two of them had disappeared without her knowing when.

Song Jing: "What did I do?"

Xu Zhixi turned away: "You know what you did."

The man put his lips close to her ear and breathed: "I don't know."

A warm breath brushed past, a little hot and a little itchy. Xu Zhixi subconsciously shrank his neck, trying to avoid it: "You..."

Song Jing kissed her earlobe and said in a hoarse voice, "Are you going back tonight?"

"…certainly."

"Then stay with me for a while, huh?"

Xu Zhixi's breathing became unstable. Noticing that the hem of her clothes had been lifted, she quickly grabbed his disturbing hand and said in a difficult tone, "...What am I doing with you?"

"What do you want to accompany?"

"..." Could she decide this? Xu Zhixi raised her hand to his chest, her mouth dry: "I'll have supper with you."

Song Jing lifted her chin, stroked her waist with one hand, lowered his head and kissed her: "You are my midnight snack."

…

This midnight snack took too long, and Xu Zhixi was sore and tired that she fell asleep in bed for several hours. It was not until Song Jing deliberately disrupted her and kissed her again and again, fearing that she would fall into endless lust again, that she suddenly opened her eyes and woke up completely.

"What are you doing?" Her voice was hoarse because of his previous violence.

Song Jing kissed her eyes, his voice incredibly gentle: "It's time to go home. Our Xixi can't stay out all night."

Xu Zhixi was wearing only his shirt, and her skin felt hot when the man was close to her. She opened her mouth and accused him of his crimes: "Song Jing, you are such a hooligan."

He picked her up, let her lean on his chest, and reached out to unbutton her shirt: "I thought I wasn't a rogue enough."

Xu Zhixi nervously grabbed the collar of his clothes and said, "I want to go back."

"I know." Song Jing laughed dumbly, "Or do you plan to go back wearing this outfit? I don't mind, but I'm afraid your dad will beat me to death."

Xu Zhixi lowered her head and found that her shirt had been unbuttoned. She quickly covered it with the quilt, and her cheeks were incredibly hot.

"Where are my clothes?"

Song Jing pulled the clothes from the side, and Xu Zhixi quickly snatched the clothes away, hid under the quilt, and quickly took off his shirt and changed into clothes.

Song Jing couldn't help but chuckle, but didn't stop him.

After I changed my clothes and got out of bed, Xu Youyang just called me.

Xu Zhixi cleared his throat, "...Dad."

"Why haven't you come back yet?"

Xu Zhixi took down his phone and saw that it was already nine o'clock in the evening. He glared at Song Jing in dissatisfaction, quickly organizing his words in his mind, and said vaguely, "I'm back and on my way."

Xu Youyang said, "We'll have plenty of time tomorrow to go shopping. Your friend came all the way here, so he should rest up now. He can't just follow you around fooling around on the streets all day."

Xu Zhixi checked himself in the mirror and found no suspicious marks on his body. He breathed a sigh of relief and replied obediently, "I know."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Zhixi looked at the man with a satisfied face, feeling annoyed and couldn't help but scolding: "Why don't you send me back?"

Song Jing picked up the shirt she had discarded, put it on slowly, buttoned it with one hand, and smiled: "Okay."

When I rushed back again, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening. Xu Youyang was waiting downstairs at home. A luxurious black Maybach drove in from the night. I thought it was a neighbor in the community. After the car stopped, I saw Xu Zhixi getting out of the car and was stunned.

Song Jing got out from the back seat of the other car. The driver, Xiao Chen, followed respectfully beside him. After closing the car door, he stood still and waited quietly.

"Dad." Xu Zhixi's tone concealed his guilty conscience.

Fortunately, Xu Youyang's attention was not on her. Instead, he glanced at the well-trained driver Xiao Chen, then looked at the elegant and noble Song Jing, frowning slightly: "Are you free later? Have a cup of tea with uncle?"

Song Jing nodded: "Okay."

Xu Zhixi was about to refuse on his behalf, but she remembered that he said he had to work later, but she didn't expect him to agree so readily.

Even the driver, Xiao Chen, was taken aback when he heard Song Jing say "OK." The work they were about to do was indeed very important. They had already postponed this meeting repeatedly in order to come to Zhangcheng. If they postponed it again tonight, the board of directors would probably be furious.

But he had no right to interfere with his boss's decision, and only Qi Mu, who had been with Song Jing since childhood, could persuade him. Therefore, he only sent a message to Qi Mu to report the situation, without any change of emotion on his face.

About a minute later, Qi Mu replied: [If you can't come back before 11 o'clock, please let me know in advance.]

Song Jing had already anticipated the evening meeting. If something unexpected happened at the Xu family that would delay the meeting, he would push the meeting to Song Qiming.

If you can get back before 11 o'clock, it won't hurt if the meeting is a few minutes late.

Xiao Chen: [Okay.]

Returning home, Xu Zhixi saw the two of them sitting on the balcony drinking tea. She wanted to listen in, but Xu Youyang chased her out. Unsuccessful, she filled the living room with water and returned to her bedroom to work on her homework.

It is already May, and according to the plan, she has to finish all the courses before July. Whether it is the five modules of the civil service exam, the essay, or the new political theory of policies, she must go through all the courses. After that, she will have to practice the second round of questions and do sets of papers.

Since he had decided to pass the national examination in one try, Xu Zhixi felt a lot of pressure. It was extremely difficult to stand out among the thousands of people taking the national examination with limited positions.

Xu Zhixi let out a long breath, opened his tablet, and started the class.

Maybe it was because she was worried that the two people outside would "fight", but Xu Zhixi couldn't completely concentrate in class this time. After barely finishing half the class, she sent a message to Song Jing, asking him if the class was over.

After several minutes, Song Jing replied: "Almost there."

Xu Zhixi asked again: [What did my dad want to talk to you about?]

This time Song Jing didn't reply.

Xu Zhixi waited for a while, and seeing that there was no news from him, he adjusted his state and continued studying.

Half an hour later, she realized that her efficiency tonight was really low. She couldn't help but feel discouraged. She looked at the textbook in silence for a few minutes, then simply turned off the course and closed the book.

It’s been an hour, we should be done talking, right?

Xu Zhixi opened the bedroom door and saw her father filling the water dispenser in the living room. She looked around but couldn't see Song Jing, so she was stunned.

"Are you still awake?" Xu Youyang took the water and turned to look at her.

Xu Zhixi asked, "Dad, where is Song Jing?"

"Leave."

"Gone?" Xu Zhixi was stunned. "When?"

Xu Youyang: “Just now.”

Xu Zhixi returned to the bedroom to get his cell phone and found that there was no message from Song Jing. He couldn't help but feel anxious. Why would he leave without even saying goodbye?

He has never been like this.

She quickly called Song Jing, but the line was busy.

After calling him twice and he didn't answer, Xu Zhixi had no choice but to send a message: "Have you returned to the hotel?"

Xu Youyang felt very uncomfortable when he saw her like this. The little girl he had raised with so much effort was finally being taken away by a wild man outside.

Xu Youyang snorted coldly: "He's such a grown-up, are you still afraid that he'll get lost?"

Xu Zhixi looked up, "Dad, did you say anything to him?"

Xu Youyang smiled proudly: "What can Dad say to him?"

"Then why did he..." He left without saying a word. She didn't say the rest of the words because she saw the displeasure in her father's eyes. She felt that she was worrying too much. Her father was not that kind of person.

Xu Youyang sat down on the sofa, took a sip of water, and said seriously, "Dad really doesn't think highly of him."

Xu Zhixi's breathing stagnated slightly, and his fingers were curled up tightly because of nervousness.

"His family being wealthy is actually a plus, but their Song family is a complex and complicated one, and the family relationships are even more confusing and confusing. If you marry him, you will definitely suffer."

Xu Zhixi pursed her lips: "I know."

Xu Youyang put down his water cup and frowned: "You still brought him home even though you knew about this?"

Xu Zhixi was silent for a long time before he said, "Dad, I want to try."

Because it was him, Song Jing.

So, she wanted to give it a try.

If you want to get something and find a thorny bush ahead, you become afraid and retreat. Then, is it still what you want?

She brought Song Jing home just to make sure whether she could accept the sudden appearance of such an "earth-shattering" thing like him in her ordinary life.

As it turned out, she was willing.

…

After Song Jing came out of Xu's house, he did not actually leave. Instead, he answered a call from his father Song Qiming, stood next to the car, and talked about the details of the meeting.

After hanging up the phone, he found that there was a missed call and a message from Xu Zhixi. He thought about it and replied to her first.

[I'm going back.]

Xu Zhixi quickly replied: [Are you downstairs?]

Song Jing: [Yes.]

Xu Zhixi: [Wait a few minutes.]

Song Jing took out a cigarette and lit it. He wasn't a heavy smoker, so he rarely smoked. He often couldn't finish a pack in two months. After meeting Xu Zhixi, he actually smoked more.

At first, because there was a lie between them, he was afraid of being discovered by her, so he would smoke to relieve his emotions. Now, he was still afraid that she would back off because of the difference in their social status.

Father Xu’s words are still ringing in my ears.

It’s still the gap in family background.

She was afraid that he couldn't protect Xu Zhixi, and that he would be careless and let her get hurt.

He understood the other party's concerns. If he were his father, he would be more cruel and ruthless than Xu Youyang. At the very least, he would make the other party suffer from broken tendons and bones and offer his true heart before he could take the person away.

He took a few deep puffs of his cigarette, and white smoke swirled in front of him, blurring his handsome face and adding a touch of indifference.

Xiao Chen reminded from the side: "Boss, Miss Xu is here."

Song Jing raised his eyes and noticed the girl jogging towards him.

The night was hazy, the street lights were dim and bright, she shuttled through the thick darkness, the surrounding light reflected her thin figure, stretching the shadow very long, revealing a bit of anxiety.

Song Jing flicked off the ash, put out the cigarette, threw it into the trash can next to him, and then walked towards him.

Xu Zhixi trotted over, panting, and was hugged in his arms.

"I'm not going to run away, why are you in such a hurry?" Song Jing stroked her back, his gentle voice falling into her ears.

Xu Zhixi rested in his arms for half a minute before calming down a little and raised her head: "You..."

"Um?"

Xu Zhixi stared at his handsome face for a long while before speaking: "I still want to do well in the civil service exam."

"I know."

"I definitely won't make as much as you."

"As long as you sign your name on the gift contract, you will be richer than me."

Xu Zhixi: "Did you bring it? The contract."

Song Jing paused, "In the hotel."

After thinking for a moment, he smiled again and said, "Or do you want to go to the hotel with me?"

Xu Zhixi looked at him without saying a word. When he frowned, she suddenly curled the corners of her lips, put her arms around his waist, and buried herself in his arms.

Song Jing was slightly stunned.

After a moment, he put his arm around her shoulders and gently stroked her long hair on her back.

"What's wrong?"

Xu Zhixi leaned against his chest, smelling his scent, and felt an inexplicable peace in her heart: "Song Jing, although I don't earn as much as you, I can do more meaningful things than you."

Song Jing understood and couldn't help laughing: "I can do meaningful things too."

Given the Song family's current status, it is actually no longer about money. It focuses more on reputation and strengthening influence, emphasizing social responsibility and consolidating its position.

Xu Zhixi stopped talking.

Seeing her suddenly quiet down, Song Jing raised his eyebrows slightly. He was about to push her away slightly, but when he saw her expression clearly, the person in his arms suddenly said, "I forgive you, Song Jing."

Song Jing was stunned.

The night was hazy, and the noisy wind quieted down, caressing gently, slowly and lingeringly.

Xu Zhixi's long hair was lifted up and brushed across his face, bringing a faint fragrance that also touched his heartstrings.

In fact, the two of them had reconciled long ago, but there was still a thorn in his heart.

The fear that she had deceived herself made her feel helpless.

Now, she says she forgives him.

Song Jing hugged her tightly, kissed her black hair with his thin lips, kissed her eyebrows, and leaned against her forehead, his voice becoming hoarse: "Xu Zhixi, I wish you to get ashore."

Xu Zhixi: “…”

Although she was eager to get ashore, did she have to say such words at this time?

Song is indeed a liar.

Even though my heart was beating so fast, what I said was still so depressing.

She was so unlucky that she was deceived by him.

Yet, she is still sinking.

Gentle and gentle Tang beauty x humble and modest boss

[Marriage first, love later丨Fragrance丨The charming heroine]

When Wen Shuzhi, the richest man in Jinhai, turned 60, he suddenly announced his divorce from his original wife. He also had a young and gentle lover by his side. He gave her the stars and the moon and doted on her.

The central topic of conversation among the wealthy always revolves around this young lover. One wonders what she possesses to win the unwavering devotion of the sixty-year-old Wen Shuzhi.

However, within half a year, the richest man passed away. Just when everyone thought that the little lover's good days were over, the news came out that the little lover was getting married to the rich man's eldest son.

There was an uproar in the wealthy circle.

-

Before his death, Wen Shuzhi left a will, which gave most of his property to his eldest son Wen Chiqian, but with an additional condition:

The will will only take effect if he marries Tang Rou.

In order to let her son get the inheritance, his mother Zhuang Yaxin personally arranged this marriage.

Wen Chiqian, as the eldest son in the family, is upright, prudent, gentle and dignified, and has always been known for his clean conduct.

On the day they signed the one-year marriage agreement, he said, "I hope Miss Tang has a spirit of contract."

.

This marriage was a farce that ended as soon as it began. Tang Rou was fully aware of this and never harbored any illusions. She only waited for Wen Chiqian to fully inherit the family business so that she could take the money and leave.

However, when she started to prepare to leave, the man who had treated her coldly and alienated her tore up the divorce agreement.

He said coldly, "I'll leave after you sleep. Tang Rou, you're so heartless."

Tang Rou: “…”

-My love for her grew wildly in the dark night.

-I'm slow to fall in love, but fortunately it's not too late.
