Chapter 58 Cheongsam

They kissed tenderly for a while, then a car drove into the yard, ending the brief kiss.

After each kiss, they could see a deep fascination in each other's eyes.

Cheng Hexi's lips were brushed by You Yue's fingertips. Afterward, You Yue skillfully opened a drawer and handed her a tissue. She wiped her lips, then pulled down the mirror behind the sun visor to reapply her lipstick.

Throughout the process, You Yue leaned back in the driver's seat and watched her, finding every movement of hers pleasing to the eye.

The lipstick color fell onto the lips, a thin layer of watery red.

Cheng Hexi pursed her lips slightly, put the sun visor back on, and turned her head to meet the man's focused gaze.

When he leaned in again, Cheng Hexi paused and said "Eh".

You Yue smiled slightly, simply reaching out to tidy up a stray hair near her cheek, and did nothing else.

“Your hair is messy,” the culprit said.

Who caused your hair to be messy?

Upon hearing this, Cheng Hexi gave him a non-aggressive glare.

You Yue got out of the car in a good mood and went around to the passenger side to open the car door for her.

Because she didn't know what kind of party Chi Yu'an was throwing, Cheng Hexi specifically asked You Yue what clothes she should wear before coming.

You Yue said that Chi Yu'an and Jing Yao both have many friends, but the atmosphere is very relaxed. It's not the kind of dinner party that requires socializing; you can just relax and be yourself.

She wore a simple white long dress, the hem of which covered her shapely calves, revealing her beautiful ankles. Pearl earrings were occasionally hidden by her short hair, appearing and disappearing intermittently.

You Yue's entire outfit was tailored to her preferences: a casual black Cuban collar shirt and trousers, minimal accessories, sleeves rolled up to reveal her shapely forearms and a dark blue-dial wristwatch.

As she got off the bus, she lifted her skirt until the slender heels touched the ground before letting go, allowing the smooth fabric to drape down again.

The car door slammed shut.

Just like last time, You Yue bent down to straighten her skirt, completely unconcerned whether anyone would see it.

Cheng Hexi is no longer uncomfortable with his actions.

Having been loved by him for so long, she could openly accept his meticulous care and attention.

As You Yue straightened up, Cheng Hexi reached out and took his hand.

This natural and spontaneous intimacy stirred something in his heart.

Because of the difference in their body shapes, the size of their hands also differed greatly. You Yue's fingers were long and slender, and the knuckles seemed to exude strength, completely enveloping her hand.

But he didn't hold Cheng Hexi's hand; instead, he let her fingers slip between his, and their fingers intertwined.

"So proactive?" You Yue smiled and raised an eyebrow. "Don't you mind if others see?"

What do you mind?

In fact, Cheng Hexi never minded. She just felt a little embarrassed when she met her subordinate at the Manhattan Hotel. Over the years, she had remained detached from emotions and was not used to showing closeness to anyone, so she felt a little awkward at that moment.

She knew You Yue was teasing her, so she pinched his index finger with her thumb and forefinger, returning his words to him: "Didn't you say that we should kiss in public at the wedding?"

This little bit of effort was nothing to You Yue; it was no different from flirting. He smiled, but still seriously reflected for a short while.

After confirming Cheng Hexi's love, everything he did was probably a case of getting a good deal and then acting innocent; calling him "spoiled and arrogant" wouldn't be an exaggeration.

Although You Yue always felt that he was a very lucky person, he always felt that winning her love was the greatest good fortune.

After all, everything else can be obtained through hard work, but love is always the exception.

Now that he had received it, he wanted to enjoy the special feeling that this love brought him.

The two walked hand in hand toward the villa entrance, and a moment later, the people from the car that had just driven in got out as well.

His gaze fell squarely upon them.

The young man was only wearing a simple T-shirt and looked to be about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. He might have just started working or he might still be pursuing a master's or doctoral degree on campus.

When Cheng Hexi saw him, she felt a vague sense of familiarity, as if she had seen him before.

Before she could think further, the boy looked away from their clasped hands, smiled at Cheng Hexi, and called her "Senior."

You Yue noticed his gaze. Her expression was originally indifferent, but upon hearing the word "senior sister," she raised her eyebrows almost imperceptibly.

Upon hearing this address, Cheng Hexi remembered who he was.

The boy was her junior when she studied at Columbia University. They were several years apart, but because they were alumni, they had met a few times.

The boy probably realized that Cheng Hexi had forgotten his name, so he took the initiative to introduce himself.

Cheng Hexi was clearly apologetic about this.

She first introduced the two to each other, then took the initiative to ask how the boy and Chi Yu'an knew each other. He said they went to the same high school and were friends.

And that's how the conversation started.

You Yue noticed that when she introduced You Yue to the boy, she used the term "my husband" instead of "President You of Hongsheng," which put him in a good mood.

During their conversation, You Yue didn't interrupt despite having just been a little jealous. He simply handed the gift he was carrying to Cheng Hexi before entering the room, asking her to give it to Chi Yu'an. Otherwise, he listened quietly.

Only after entering the room and greeting them did the two politely stop talking.

During their chat, the guy mentioned that he stayed in New York to work and would be joining Cheng Hexi's former boss in early September. He asked her a few questions that seemed trivial to You Yue, but Cheng Hexi answered them all seriously.

She was always articulate and organized in her speech and actions, with a clear sense of priorities, which was very charming. You Yue suddenly realized that this was exactly the kind of person she had fallen in love with in the first place.

-

Chi Yu'an's house is beautifully decorated. Although it only has two floors, each floor is very spacious and has excellent natural light. The living room is next to a bright and spacious floor-to-ceiling window, and you can see the exterior of the villa from the sofa.

Cheng Hexi herself is not a person who likes crowds, but she also really enjoys this kind of relaxed and pleasant party.

After dinner, Chi Yu'an's friends were laughing and joking around the house. She chatted with Ying Zeqing for a while, then suddenly remembered something, left him alone there, went upstairs to get something, and found Cheng Hexi.

Cheng Hexi was chatting with You Yue while leaning against the sofa when she was surprised to receive the beautifully packaged gift box from her.

Chi Yu'an sat down next to her and said with a smile, "I heard from my cousin last time that he went to New York to celebrate your birthday a while ago. I missed your birthday, so I'm giving you a gift now."

Cheng Hexi was surprised by her thoughtfulness and laughed at her words, but she didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the gift, saying "thank you."

She asked, "I just saw your WeChat Moments. Did you go to New Zealand?"

Chi Yu'an blinked and said, "Yes."

"I went to photograph the aurora and the Milky Way when there was an aurora outbreak a while ago."

Cheng Hexi nodded slowly and praised her for taking beautiful photos.

Chi Yu'an did not take credit, saying it was because New Zealand itself was particularly beautiful. Then she asked her...

"Sister-in-law, I have a lot of photos on my camera, would you like to see them?"

You Yue hadn't said a word until now, but suddenly said, "See? Your cousin-in-law said she's going to New Zealand with me for our honeymoon next month."

"..."

Chi Yu'an really wanted to say "Who asked you?", but considering that You Yue had just started dating and it was understandable that she liked to show off, she was definitely not the only victim, so she ignored her and went upstairs to get the camera for Cheng Hexi.

After she left, Cheng Hexi patted his forearm very lightly and said helplessly, "What are you doing now?"

"What did I do?" He smiled faintly, took Cheng Hexi's wrist in his hand, and looked at her.

I wanted to kiss her, but I held back.

Cheng Hexi smiled and teased him, "Your friends will think you've become a different person if they see you like this."

Who would have thought that Yu Yue was like this when he was in love?

The person involved didn't care at all: "That's because I'm happy, and they should be happy for me."

If they weren't at someone else's house, Cheng Hexi would have already laughed and fallen into his arms.

-

You Yue had been drinking, and Cheng Hexi drove him back.

It was almost ten o'clock when they got home. They both took showers and neither of them planned to work anymore.

It wasn't bedtime yet, but Cheng Hexi suggested going upstairs to the media room to watch a movie.

You Yue leaned against the bathroom door, watching her put away the hairdryer and comb her hair in front of the mirror. Suddenly remembering something, he said, "I picked up your cheongsam before I went home tonight."

As time passed, she almost forgot about the cheongsam.

Turning around, Cheng Hexi brushed aside her short hair that had fallen over her shoulder and smiled at You Yue: "Shall I change into it for you?"

You Yue felt that her intentions were sometimes easy for her to see through, but she didn't expose them, which was like a kind of fun.

Cheng Hexi followed behind him wearing only a bathrobe.

You Yue walked into the dressing room, and she followed a few steps behind, untied her bathrobe, and took out white underwear from the bedroom to change.

Her hands and feet are often cold, and she sometimes doesn't like to wear shoes. Some time ago, You Yue specially laid carpets in her bedroom and walk-in closet.

When Cheng Hexi entered the walk-in closet, he leaned against the wardrobe and looked over.

When he saw that she was only wearing a set of lace lingerie and was barefoot on the floor, his gaze instantly darkened.

His Adam's apple bobbed slightly, but he said nothing.

When You Yue arrived home in the afternoon, Cheng Hexi had not yet returned. He had carefully hung all the cheongsams in the closet.

Cheng Hexi opened the glass door, reached out and rubbed her hand against the man's forearm, and asked softly, "Which one do you like best?"

You Yue didn't touch her, but let her touch him. Upon hearing this, he raised his eyebrows slightly.

Cheng Hexi smiled and said, "Whichever one you like the most, I'll wear it first to show you."

Without any hesitation, You Yue restrained himself and withdrew his gaze from her, then took out the white embroidered outfit.

Cheng Hexi wasn't surprised that he liked this item.

She took it and slowly put it on.

The cheongsam had many frog buttons, and You Yue watched her fasten them without helping. His gaze, however, grew increasingly intense, remaining fixed on her without ever looking away.

Cheng Hexi moved slowly, almost deliberately.

When she was finally dressed, You Yue stepped forward, lowered his head, and captured her lips.

He barely gave her a moment to catch her breath; the next second, he had already pried open the teeth of the person in his arms and entwined his tongue with hers.

Cheng Hexi achieved her goal, but she couldn't resist his rare fierceness. She let out a soft moan as he kissed her, her breath being stolen away.

You Yue didn't stop. He put his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him, letting her bare feet leave the ground and step onto his feet.

You Yue kissed her, led her a few steps forward, stopped when they were close to the large floor-to-ceiling mirror, and slowly pulled away from her lips.

Cheng Hexi closed her eyes, her lips glistening and swollen from the kiss.

She almost lost her strength, and the hand that was hooked around the man's neck fell.

You Yue put his arm around her waist and lifted her onto the dressing table next to him.

The cheongsam is made of high-quality fabric, and the high-waisted design highlights her already excellent waistline and hip line.

The slit was very high, barely covering her long, fair legs.

Cheng Hexi looked at him, her face slightly flushed from the kiss, and let the man unbutton her clothes.

"You didn't help me tie it, but you're having a lot of fun untying it."

She bit her lip, intending to kick him, but then thought it would be pointless and might even make him happier, so she gave up.

You Yue smiled, his warm hands roaming over her body, and said, "I'll tie it for you next time."

He unbuttoned a few buttons, but didn't take off the cheongsam; he just rolled up the hem.

Cheng Hexi buried her head in the man's neck, wrapped her legs around his waist, and let her short hair fall on his shoulders.

You Yue has a strong waist and abdomen, and her waistline is smooth and sexy, a result of years of exercise and fitness. She looks beautiful but not exaggerated.

Cheng Hexi didn't obediently let him do as he pleased, and reached out to tear open the sash of the bathrobe in front of her.

...

During her tumultuous period, she intermittently condemned You Yue's actions, saying that she hadn't even looked in the mirror after putting on her cheongsam, completely omitting her own role in stirring things up.

You Yue smiled, hugged her tightly, and whispered something in her ear while panting, adding that she could see it if she turned her head.

The large floor-length mirror was right next to it.

Cheng Hexi bit his lip, without turning her head, but she felt that she could see him out of the corner of her eye, so she closed her eyes.

You Yue didn't stop what he was doing. Suddenly, he spoke softly, bringing up what had just happened: "Your junior likes you."

He asked, "Is that right?"

Cheng Hexi didn't know why he suddenly brought up other people. She let out an "uh" sound, and her nails gripped the man's back muscles harder, leaving a few marks.

You Yue seemed oblivious and gently kissed her lips.

Cheng Hexi simply couldn't stand his two different styles, but she still had to answer his questions.

"...Perhaps."

She received a confession from that junior after Columbia University's graduation ceremony.

They didn't interact much. She had only helped him with a small favor in her studies, something so trivial that she didn't even remember it and had a very faint impression of his name.

At that time, she was already preparing to join an investment bank and making plans for the future, so this incident was just a minor episode.

Even if he liked it back then, he doesn't feel that way anymore.

Knowing that You Yue wouldn't be jealous, Cheng Hexi still asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's alright." You Yue tightened his grip on her waist.

"I just feel very lucky."

A bright and dazzling person like Cheng Hexi will never lack admirers, no matter where or when.

He kissed her shoulder and whispered in her ear, "Baby, thank you for loving me."

The man's breath sprayed against her sensitive ear, and Cheng Hexi felt as if she had been electrocuted. She tilted her head back, her mind going blank for a moment.
