There were no signs of human interference on the back hill.
Even the mountain roads are winding and rugged.
Cui Ziqi carried Xia Wan on his back, walking up the mountain with light steps as if it were flat ground.
I don't understand why he suddenly became so happy.
Xia Wan wrapped her arms around his neck and tilted her head to look at him. This little pervert has really good stamina. They're almost at the top of the mountain, and he's not even out of breath or red in the face. There's just a little bit of sweat on his forehead.
Are you tired?
Xia Wan asked him.
Cui Ziqi shook her head, "Not tired."
"It's good if you're not tired. If you are, just walk slower."
Cui Ziqi: ...
She had absolutely no intention of suffering for herself.
We reached the top of the mountain.
Xia Wan's elegant feet finally touched the ground.
A cool breeze blew by, carrying a slight chill, and she got goosebumps all over her body.
Looking at the thin layer of sweat on Cui Ziqi's forehead, she hesitated for a moment, then took out a tissue from her pocket.
"Wipe your sweat."
Cui Ziqi didn't take it, but just brought her face closer.
The meaning is quite obvious.
Xia Wan resigned herself to wiping his sweat, her movements not particularly gentle, but Cui Ziqi closed his eyes as if enjoying it.
After wiping away his sweat, Cui Ziqi leaned over and hugged Xia Wan, planting a kiss on her cheek.
"Thank you, honey."
Wife.
Xia Wan pursed her lips, her earlobes slightly red.
She and Cui Ziqi got their marriage certificate and are very close in private.
But this was the first time Cui Ziqi had called her "wife," and it made her ears burn.
She stuffed the tissue she used to wipe her sweat into Cui Ziqi's pocket and snuggled into his arms for warmth.
Cui Ziqi, as strong as an ox, carried her, a huge person, all the way to the top of the mountain without even panting.
Seeing that he was so energetic that he could kill ten wolves, she completely gave up on her plan to escape right under his nose.
Cui Ziqi was very pleased with Xia Wan's advances.
The sun was setting in the west, standing on the distant, rolling mountains.
The sky was ablaze with rosy clouds.
The city beneath our feet has shrunk to the size of an architectural model.
Xia Wan listened to Cui Ziqi's strong heartbeat and felt the cool breeze on her face.
What a vibrant world in the book.
She can hardly distinguish between reality and illusion anymore.
Cui Ziqi asked, "Wanwan, do you think I'm pitiful?"
The unexpected problem caught Xia Wan off guard.
She looked up in confusion, staring at Cui Ziqi's resolute jawline.
Cui Ziqi looked down at her, his eyes calm and expressionless. He concealed his true emotions and stared at her intently, hoping she would give him the truth.
Xia Wan avoided his gaze, buried her head in his chest, and remained silent.
She didn't know what kind of answer the little pervert wanted to hear.
Pitiful?
What if the little pervert gets angry and asks her, 'So you don't love me, you just pity me?'
So what is she going to do?
The answer is not pitiful.
She could also imagine what the little pervert would say: 'So you won't even spare me pity? Then do you even love me?'
For some reason, Cui Ziqi has been struggling with whether or not she loves him lately.
Having obtained her body was not enough; he also desired her heart.
Xia Wan pouted, "You've trapped me here because you love me?"
"Perhaps."
Cui Ziqi answered.
He tightened his grip on Xia Wan's arms, pulling her closer to his embrace.
He lowered his head and kissed Xia Wan's soft hair, gently inhaling the fragrance that had long been infused with the scent of roses.
"I don't know what love is, but I hope you'll be by my side for the rest of my life. No one else will do."
Xia Wan felt as if her heart was being gripped by a giant hand, suffocating and aching.
She didn't say anything more.
Cui Ziqi didn't bother searching for an answer.
With most of the sun swallowed by the distant mountains, Xia Wan suddenly spoke, "Ziqi, you actually hate me, don't you?"
Xia Wan felt the hand around her waist unconsciously tighten around her weak spot.
Cui Ziqi's body stiffened slightly.
She continued, "You hate being lied to the most, but I lied to you anyway, so you hate me, right?"
Cui Ziqi didn't speak, but Xia Wan looked up at him and continued to press him for answers.
"For the sake of the system's mission, I approached you under the guise of being your savior, swindled your money, deceived your feelings, and in the end, I abandoned you. I'm no different from Cui Jiyang and his ilk; I don't treat you like a human being at all."
The hand around her waist was about to twist her waist off.
Xia Wan saw the man's slightly reddened pupils.
She watched calmly, then suddenly stood on tiptoe, cupped his face, and kissed him.
Cui Ziqi's pupils contracted.
After realizing what was happening, he held her head and deepened the kiss.
The sun was completely swallowed by the mountaintop, and the rosy clouds quietly disappeared between their lips.
A dim light enveloped the area.
Xia Wan couldn't take it anymore and leaned her head against his shoulder to catch her breath.
Cui Ziqi chased after her and bit her earlobe, his voice hoarse: "Don't say things like that again."
Xia Wan shook her head.
“I’m telling the truth.”
"Wanwan," Cui Ziqi's voice turned serious, "Don't make me angry."
The tone was one of undeniable coercion.
Xia Wan fell silent.
Back at the manor, Cui Ziqi carried Xia Wan on his back as usual.
The path down the mountain was dark, and Xia Wan thought it would be safer for her to walk on her own.
Cui Ziqi didn't say anything, but silently took out pink handcuffs.
Xia Wan was so angry that she jumped onto his back.
The tomb of You Shuang in the manor was built very quickly.
After just one week of consolidation, the model is already beginning to take shape.
It's a two-story villa, right in the center of the rose garden.
Xia Wan leaned against the window of the study, looking down at the small villa below.
When Cui Ziqi finished her work and turned around, she saw Xia Wan looking down from the window. She was sitting on the carpet with a small pile of snacks at her feet.
