Chapter 599: Confusion (6)

Qiao Xi took out a tissue in the bathroom and wiped her hands.

She had just walked out when someone suddenly grabbed her waist. A sudden and almost brutal force pulled her over and dragged her into the empty room on the other side.

With a "click", the door closed and locked.

Before the girl could react, the force around her waist tightened like a chain binding her.

In a dim room.

Qiao Xi soon noticed something was wrong. The warm breath falling from her neck was so ambiguous that it caused her skin to tremble slightly.

The softness that falls on the earlobe.

It seemed as if the man's lips were gently pressed against hers.

Her wrists were firmly clamped and restrained, and she snuggled up to the chest of someone she didn't know, leaning into the strange yet familiar arms.

The faint scent of sandalwood lingers.

It was a quiet, yet mature and steady atmosphere. However, the magnetic voice that caressed Qiao Xi's ears ambiguously made the girl's body tense unconsciously.

"Long time no see, Qiao Xi."

In the darkness, the man's words seemed to be accompanied by a chuckle.

The ambiguous words made it hard to tell for a moment whether the emotion in his voice was genuine joy or the joy of a hunter who had found a delicious prey and was determined to get it.

The other party accurately said the name.

The girl's body completely stiffened.

Most people would think that she was the daughter of the Xi family, so naturally her surname would be Xi. As for her father, the head of the Xi family, he also announced to the public that her surname was Xi and her given name was Xi.

No one will know her past.

No one will know about her past that has been buried for too long and is too unbearable.

They know.

The most they knew was that she was kidnapped by foreign criminal gangs, but no one knew what she had experienced when she lived in that small town as Qiao Xi.

Someone I thought I would never see again.

But we met here in such a dramatic way.

In this cramped, dark room, where ambiguous elements were gradually lingering, they met silently.

“…I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

The girl was probably pretending to be calm, and her slightly inflected voice seemed to be trying to hide her uneasiness.

only.

Yan Liang could still hear the trembling voice that she was trying hard to suppress.

Are you feeling scared?

Or are you afraid that those darker experiences that are even more unbearable and cannot be seen in the light will be exposed?

Just because——

He was one of the people who once brought shadow to Qiao Xi, but later, this beautiful canary escaped.

After Yan Liang returned to his family, he had been paying attention to her news.

Just one day.

Qiao Xi suddenly disappeared from all trace, as if she had evaporated from the face of the earth, completely vanishing from this world.

I guess it was at that time.

She must have been found and protected by the Xi family.

Who could have known that so many dramatic things would happen in that small town? For Yan Liang, that was indeed the beginning. What you can't get is naturally the most memorable.

And Qiao Xi.

She was the one who left the deepest mark on him during his youth, and she was also the one he had never been able to completely get.

So that later.

Every time he found a plaything, they all vaguely resembled Qiao Xi. However, beneath these pure and sweet appearances, they lacked the hysteria and madness he had seen in Qiao Xi when she was forced into a desperate situation.

So, these are defective products.

It could never reach the level of perfection in his mind.

Would you feel surprised? People who thought they would never see each other again met at this time. Yan Liang wanted to let this tangled fate continue to be confused, and it would be best if no one could sort it out.

She can't escape either.

“Hmm…”

Suddenly, the tightly pressed lips left no room for escape.

Yan Liang's arm was tightly wrapped around her waist, and the hand on the back of Qiao Xi's head pressed the girl's head domineeringly, forcing Qiao Xi to face him.

There is no room for escape.

A kiss without warning, lips suddenly sealed.

The girl's eyes widened in shock, her pupils shrinking slightly. This sudden change was like a sudden robbery of her oxygen. She pushed the person away, desperate to breathe.

only.

She was held tightly in the man's arms and locked tightly against his chest, leaving no room for escape.

A momentary feeling of hypoxia came over me.

It was at this moment that Yan Liang seized the opportunity and took advantage of it. Just like the entanglement of grievances between them that could not be cut off or sorted out, the softness in the moment of invasion pulled her down with him.

There is no escape.

Forced to face and accept this reality.

Look carefully, who is treating you like this now——

As if to convey such a strong thought, in the darkness, the man's cold eyes flickered with a dark fire of greed. That madness, filled with malice and bordering on brutality, seemed to devour his sanity.

His venting and temper towards Qiao Xi.

All of this was transformed into action and integrated into this almost predatory kiss, like a wolf snatching food at all costs.

Savage and brutal.

He has never been associated with the word gentle. The so-called concealing of his true nature, dressing well and treating others with gentleness and gentlemanliness is nothing more than the image of a qualified heir that he wants to see in front of others.

Such an identity.

It often attracts those kind of naive people who have no brains and are ignorant of the world.

I dream of a romantic encounter like a fairy tale, a dramatic coincidence like a TV drama plot, and a happy wedding that is the inevitable ending of all love stories.

Just like the types that Yan Shen used to like.

Yan Liang hid his own bad nature and dealt with these things that he had long been tired of playing with. Occasionally, a red rose who thought she could be his confidante would appear, passionate and enthusiastic.

Self-proclaimed beauty.

In fact, it is nothing more than rotten meat that has been chewed and spit out by many people.

No matter how much these toys resemble her.

But it wasn't her.

The only person who could excite him, who could make him see his true self, who could make Yan Liang no longer hide himself from the bottom of his heart, who could empathize with him and understand his madness, was Qiao Xi, who had suddenly disappeared.

finally.

At this time, he found it.

The separated lips still lingered with an ambiguous factor, which was more like a precursor to igniting a dangerous fire.

It's just that they were all restraining themselves on the edge of rationality. Yan Liang noticed that the person in his arms seemed to still be tense, and he couldn't help but find it funny.

"What are you still afraid of? Huh? Do you think I'll spill all this information?"

The man's big hand pinched Qiao Xi's chin.

Yan Liang narrowed his eyes slightly, his dark fire burning in them, revealing an undisguised possessiveness. It was an instinct called desire that could only arise for her.

"This is our first kiss."

Yan Liang's fingertips caressed Qiao Xi's soft lips, which were still slightly moist. When the man's dry thumb fell and pressed against her lips, the girl frowned slightly as if she was displeased.

There had been some tugging during the previous kiss.

The evening dress she was wearing also looked a little messy.

The cool evening dress is no exception.

After all this pulling and tugging, both of their clothes inevitably became a little wrinkled, and they looked a little disheveled.

Almost all of them were old acquaintances.

Now that this window paper has been broken, there is no point in hiding it any longer, and there is naturally no need to continue pretending not to know each other.

Qiao Xi pushed his hand away and turned her head to look away.

"I'm going out now. I don't have time to chat with you."

It seemed that she didn't want to have any more interactions with Yan Liang. After such a passionate kiss, her first reaction was to distance herself from them.

Yan Liang's eyes dimmed slightly, and he took in all her emotional changes.

Is it so disgusting?

Yes, for Qiao Xi, this may be a past full of darkness.

"Why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Yan Liang raised his eyebrows slightly, and immediately grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.

The man hugged her from behind.

He held Qiao Xi in his arms, and his lips fell on the girl's shoulders and neck.

A warm breath spreads.

The girl frowned at the slight tingling sensation that felt like a numbness. Yan Liang had bitten her—

After the pain.

The soft touch lingered and kissed on her shoulders and neck, and the smell and scent of Yan Liang seemed to envelop her as if to devour her.

Qiao Xi frowned and raised her hand to push his head away: "Are you a dog?"

They all knew this was not the place to talk.

Yan Liang naturally knew in his heart that he would not take the next step towards her here. So when Qiao Xi pushed him away, he actually laughed twice in a good mood.

"It doesn't matter what you say."

The person he wanted, the person he could meet now, was right in front of him.

And just as expected.

Qiao Xi actually didn't have much aversion to him, because Yan Liang had known a long time ago that they were all the same kind of people, rolling around in this dirty and muddy quagmire, and were not very clean.

He understood tacitly.

Naturally, he would not ask how many men Qiao Xi had had, and Qiao Xi probably had no interest in how many substitute toys similar to her he had found over the years.

Treat Qiao Xi.

After all, he had some special feelings in mind, and probably wanted to get rid of his obsession from his youth.

Among the toys he found.

I never crossed the bottom line. I just played around to kill time.

As for touching...?

That's even more impossible. Coming from an ancient family, he is proud and arrogant. Naturally, he doesn't think that anyone is truly worthy of him.

Unless, it is the person in front of me.

"What's going on between you and Gan Youmeng?" Qiao Xi lowered her head and adjusted her skirt. Yan Liang walked slowly beside her and helped her adjust it.

Hear her voice.

The man spoke casually without even raising his eyes.

"It felt very similar to your situation. I thought it was pretty good, so I participated briefly."

When he met Gan Youmeng.

There were already three people around the other party, and not long after he joined, another one appeared around Gan Youmeng.

That makes five people.

It's just that he has to play the type of role that almost made him sick when he faced it before. It's okay to just have fun and pass the time.

Everyone around him said that he loved Gan Youmeng terribly.

The usually shrewd president couldn't tell east from west when he met that naive young lady.

Yan Liang had heard a lot of rumors like this.

Whenever he saw Gan Youmeng's shy and embarrassed expression, and then looked at him lovingly, with a bunch of dogs barking behind him, he just wanted to laugh.

Later on, I watched too many plays.

Feeling a bit boring, Yan Liang naturally didn't want to waste time anymore after the novelty wore off.

but.

At that time, Gan Youmeng proposed fair competition. She would have someone accompany her every day for seven days a week, and she could decide whether to rest or find someone to accompany her for the remaining two days of the weekend.

This is not.

Yan Liang was originally planning to leave, but when he found out that she was going to do something fancy, he couldn't help but stay and watch for a while out of interest.

so.

In order, it was him on Monday and that gangster prince on Tuesday.

Wednesday is Nan Xiangzhu.

Thursday is Yuzhi, and Friday is the e-sports guy.

It just so happened that today's party was on a Wednesday, and it was Nan Xiangzhu's turn to accompany her. Gan Youmeng also happened to want to come. Naturally, Nan Xiangzhu was the male companion.

"Jealous?"

Yan Liang saw her tidy up her skirt, then he stretched out his arms and pulled Qiao Xi into his arms again.

But this time he restrained himself.

After all, he still thought about how hard Qiao Xi had worked to put on her evening gown, and he didn't want her efforts to go to waste. So, he only slightly deepened the kiss on Qiao Xi's neck, and before the girl could answer, he sealed her lips again.

This time the kiss was much gentler.

It's not too aggressive, more like playing with prey.

After a brief struggle, they separated.

After calming her breathing a little, Qiao Xi raised her eyes and glanced at him.

"No, I just feel that you haven't changed at all. You still like to waste time on such boring things."

She has no special feelings for Yan Liang.

The relationship between them can even be said to be full of grudges.

Yan Liang couldn't deny what she said.

Qiao Xi didn't stay any longer. After confirming that she looked alright, she left the room. Not long after she left, Yan Liang came out slowly.

The two people who left one after the other didn't seem to have anything unusual.

but.

Nan Xiangzhu, who was sitting with Gan Youmeng in the lobby downstairs, was always a little absent-minded.

The girl next to me was chattering.

Talk about which dishes are delicious, what they like to drink, and what they think is beautiful.

If it were before.

Nan Xiangzhu naturally listened patiently and wrote down what Gan Youmeng said. He would prepare a gift and give Gan Youmeng a surprise later.

But now.

Yan Liang's sudden departure and the figure that disappeared around the corner made him feel uneasy for a long time.

And I don’t know how long it took.

Nan Xiangzhu, who had been paying attention to the corner of the second floor intentionally or unintentionally, finally saw the person who had disappeared there before after a long time.

Qiao Xi's figure attracted his attention almost as soon as she appeared.

only.

The girl didn't seem to notice that she was being watched and she walked down the stairs as before.

And not far behind her.

The person who appeared from the corner was Yan Liang, who had previously said he had to leave. The man had one hand in his pocket, looking a little lazy, and followed him down the stairs at a distance.

only.

The two people were going in different directions and there was no communication during the process.

but.

An inexplicable ominous premonition had begun to invade Nan Xiangzhu's thoughts. His intuition told him that there seemed to be something going on between Yan Liang and Qiao Xi.
