Chapter 76: It's all because of her
Qin Song has a sweet and subtle fragrance. It doesn't look like perfume, but more like a long-lasting fusion of laundry detergent and shower gel, which is then absorbed and accepted by the body odor on her skin.
The fragrance is neither strong nor weak, and the sweetness is just right.
Pei Xingzhi hugged Qin Song tightly, as if there was suddenly a void in his heart, and he couldn't wait to put Qin Song in there to fill the void.
"Pei Xingzhi, what's wrong with you?" Qin Song raised his hands, wrapped them around his thin waist, and patted his back lightly and softly.
He still didn't say anything, just tightened his arms and pressed Qin Song hard into his arms.
Qin Song withdrew one hand to protect his belly, and continued to pat him with the other hand.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"No." Pei Xingzhi shook his head and finally spoke.
Qin Song lowered his voice and asked calmly, "Are you in a bad mood? Or is it too much pressure?"
"No." Pei Xingzhi still shook his head and answered with these two words.
"..." Qin Song frowned slightly, not knowing which direction to try.
"Xiao Song." Pei Xingzhi called her name in a hoarse voice, then lowered his head and buried his face in her neck, greedily sniffing the sweetness of her body.
The hot breath kept spraying on the sensitive neck, and the soft lips gently rubbed the skin. Qin Song shuddered and got goose bumps unconsciously.
"Hey, I'm here." She didn't dodge. Instead, she tilted her head slightly and rubbed Pei Xingzhi's ear with her cheek.
Pei Xingzhi closed his eyes, his tall nose wandering along Qin Song's neck, and said in a fragile voice: "Let me hug you, I want to hug you."
Qin Song: "Okay."
Pei Xingzhi was obviously preoccupied with something and didn't want to say more. Qin Song didn't want to force him, so he stopped asking questions and just let him hold him.
He hugged and took advantage of her, making Qin Song feel uncomfortable.
But Qin Song didn't want to push him away, so he just moved closer to him.
"Okay, fully charged."
After hugging for more than ten minutes, Pei Xingzhi reluctantly let Qin Song go.
Qin Song tugged at his crooked collar, his cheeks turning red.
"It's time to eat," she said.
Pei Xingzhi stroked her face gently and replied with a smile: "Okay."
The food was just prepared and was all steaming hot.
Pei Xingzhi quickly brought the dishes to the table, and Qin Song was responsible for serving the rice and using the chopsticks.
"Today's dishes are all my favorites." Looking at the delicious dishes on the table, Pei Xingzhi's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
Qin Song: "Yes, these are all your favorites, come and try them."
Pei Xingzhi picked up the bowl and chopsticks, picked up a piece of fried pork belly that was shiny and crispy and put it into his mouth.
"It's delicious." His comment was simple and straightforward. He took a big mouthful of rice and said, "I've been tired all day. I've been hungry for a long time."
Qin Song picked up a shrimp for him and said, "Even if you are hungry, you have to eat slowly."
Pei Xingzhi nodded: "Yes."
Maybe he was really fully recharged, or maybe it was because Qin Song's food was so delicious. In any case, Pei Xingzhi's mood was visibly getting better.
Qin Song observed his expression, and when he returned to normal, he asked tentatively: "How was the election today? Are they satisfied with your game?"
"It's okay." Pei Xingzhi answered very naturally, without revealing any clues.
“It’s just that it will take some time for the election results to come out.”
"Oh." Qin Song nodded, as if he believed it. "Just wait patiently. I believe you can do it."
Pei Xingzhi looked up at her and smiled, then picked up a piece of lean meat and put it in her bowl.
"good."
The couple has a great understanding of each other. Neither of them says much, and the other doesn't ask too many questions. No one wants to disrupt this peaceful and warm feeling.
But there are always people who can't bear to see them doing well, fearing that their lives will never go smoothly one day.
The next afternoon, Qin Song was curled up on the sofa making the final color adjustments to Feng Yu's necklace when he suddenly received a call from Shen Yanhui.
She did not save Shen Yanhui's contact information, so when the call came in, only an unfamiliar number appeared on the screen.
At first, she thought it was a harassing call, so she didn't rush to speak after answering it. Until Shen Yanhui tentatively said "Hello".
"...Ms. Shen?" She raised her eyebrows, unable to hide her surprise.
Shen Yanhui's voice was a little cold: "Qin Song, let's meet. There is something I think you must know."
Qin Song didn't really want to go, and while adjusting the color, he said nonchalantly: "Meet? There's no need to be so troublesome. If you have anything to say, Miss Shen can just say it on the phone. I'm listening."
"We must talk about this in person!" Shen Yanhui had no patience. Before Qin Song could refuse for the second time, she said directly, "Because of you, Xingzhi lost this investment. How can this matter be resolved if you don't show up?"
"...What did you say?" The paintbrush between Qin Song's fingers suddenly fell onto the sofa.
Shen Yanhui did not explain, but only said: "I'll be waiting for you at Arbor Cafe at 4 pm, don't hide and be afraid to come."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
"Because of you, Xingzhi lost this investment..."
This sentence seemed to be a curse. It still echoed in Qin Song's mind long after the phone was hung up.
Qin Song's mind was a little confused. She sat on the sofa for more than ten minutes, then hurried out the door holding her cell phone without even taking her bag. But in fact, there is still more than an hour until the agreed time.
Qiaomu Cafe is in the center of Yuncheng City. When Qin Song arrived, Shen Yanhui was already sitting in the store. She arrived earlier than Qin Song.
"Sit down."
She raised her chin slightly, pointed to the seat opposite her, and then pushed a glass of orange juice in front of Qin Song.
Qin Song sat down but didn't even look at the orange juice.
"What do you mean by what you said on the phone? How could Pei Xingzhi lose his investment because of me?" She didn't want to beat around the bush, so she got straight to the point.
Shen Yanhui stirred the coffee in the cup and raised the corners of his lips in a sarcastic smile.
"Qin Song, you should have seen the game made by Xingzhi, right?"
Qin Song frowned and said coldly, "I've seen it."
Shen Yan replied: "I admit that this game is very novel and unique. But in this world, it is the first otome game in China with love as its theme."
"This world is very shallow. Most people here would think it's weird and crazy to fall in love with a paper man. Not many gamers are willing to accept it, and naturally, no capital is willing to invest in it."
"But if Xing Zhi obeys, Shen's Group will be willing to take the risk and invest two-thirds of the aid funds in his game."
"This game could have seen the light of day, but because of you, not only is the game gone, but the company may never get back on its feet again."
"Obedience?" These two words made Qin Song feel very uncomfortable. She stared at Shen Yanhui with cold eyes and asked directly: "Miss Shen, what do you want Pei Xingzhi to listen to you?"
