He was about to pick her up and turn on the light, showing no intention of putting her down.
"No need, this is fine."
Since you're not going to let go, you might as well just leave it at that, have a quick chat, and then go.
"Okay, I'll do what Fufu says."
Qin Zifu didn't say anything, but just lay on top of Qi Jingchen. Since she couldn't break free anyway, she might as well find a comfortable position.
The room fell silent for a moment.
Qi Jingchen held the person in his arms, a surge of heat rising within him, a sudden, uncontrollable rush of heat coursing through his body, yet he couldn't do anything, and that place was still being sat on…
The person in his arms was now lying obediently in his arms, like a little kitten.
He casually grabbed a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and lit it with a lighter. The dimly lit room was filled with only this flickering light.
"Are you going to talk or not? And why are you smoking?"
"When the urge to smoke strikes, I'll take a couple of puffs."
"Then put me down, don't burn me."
"Don't move and you won't get burned. I'm watching."
"snort…"
Qin Zifu grumbled and expressed her dissatisfaction, which made his recently subsided heat surge up again, and his sexy Adam's apple bobbed.
Damn, that's all the ambition I have.
"Eating spicy food, drinking alcohol, and having iced drinks again tonight? And showing your arms and legs in this cold weather?"
"So what? Besides, I'm wearing a coat."
It's just that I had it in my hand when I came back.
"Not so great, a good traditional Chinese medicine doctor."
"If others can do it, so can I. Besides, I'm in good health and know how to take care of myself. There's no other way."
Qin Zifu shrugged. She wasn't the kind of person who, according to traditional Chinese medicine, would consider whether a fruit was cold or hot in nature, nor was she the kind of person who would eat things in the morning or afternoon. She believed that as long as her body was fine, she should eat and drink as she pleased, otherwise life would be too stifling.
"It's like saying, 'Wine and meat pass through the intestines, but Buddha remains in the heart.'"
"More or less."
"It's too pungent. Could you please not smoke next to me? Secondhand smoke is even more harmful."
Okay, I'll be more careful next time.
Qi Jingchen took two puffs and then stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray, the faint smoke surrounding the two of them.
Qin Zifu dislikes the smell of smoke, so she nestled in his arms and inhaled the cool pine scent emanating from him.
This atmosphere makes everything around us ambiguous.
"Please give me a chance."
"What opportunity?"
Qin Zifu answered in a muffled voice.
Qi Jingchen lifted Qin Zifu's head, making eye contact with her, as if holding a rare treasure. Unexpectedly, Qin Zifu immediately let go of the strength and pressed the weight of her head onto his hand.
"You're not putting in any effort at all?"
"Isn't it you who's supporting it?"
Qi Jingchen chuckled, and the vibration belt in his chest made her tremble.
"Please give me a chance to be with you, I want to be Fufu's boyfriend."
"not good"
"Why not just get married?"
How did she end up so limp and weak on top of him, and then reject him so readily?
"What nonsense are you spouting? Didn't you say I'm too young and that it's inappropriate?"
"I did say you were young, but I didn't say it wasn't suitable."
"You didn't say it wasn't a good match, but you rejected me."
"Do you think that was feasible back then? Fufu was only eighteen. If your brother knew, he'd try to murder me in the middle of the night."
Qin Zifu laughed. She could already picture it: her brother sneaking into her house at night, ready to kill her.
Since you've rejected me, you've missed your chance.
"I didn't reject you. I was waiting for you to grow up. Your brother has remained chaste for you all these years."
Why does she sound a little aggrieved as she talks about it, like a big dog?
Qi Jingchen didn't expect the little girl to be so temperamental. She said she liked him back then, but he felt it wasn't the right time. He never expected that she would never respond to him again in the past five years.
Qin Zifu felt embarrassed and a little ashamed. She had always had a smooth life and was showered with love. She finally turned eighteen, but by then she was almost a junior in college. All her classmates were older than her and had started dating.
She felt she was ready, so she confessed to the person she liked. But the person directly said she was too young and couldn't do it. Such a reason was worse than just saying he didn't like her!
Is her being young a problem? Doesn't that mean she has no chance? No matter how much older she gets, she'll still be younger than him.
She hated him so much back then that she never opened the birthday gifts he sent her each year; they just stayed at home.
"To remain chaste?"
Qin Zifu gave her a look that said, "Do you really think I believe that?"
"Don't believe me? Aside from that day with Fufu, it's never happened before."
"There are plenty of people who want to have something going on with President Qi. Countless business partners have probably wanted to offer him women, and even if they were drugged, it's not uncommon."
The woman spoke with great conviction; how could he have missed so many opportunities? Besides, she didn't think he was inexperienced that day.
"Yes, there are many, but no one has ever succeeded. I have to wait for Fufu; I'm not interested in anyone else."
"I don't believe it. If you have such strong willpower, how could that kind of thing have happened that day? Besides, you weren't drugged that day, yet you still couldn't resist."
"That's because it's you. Even just standing there, I couldn't control myself, let alone what you did that day."
Qi Jingchen still feels his blood boil when he thinks back to that day, and the images in his mind are hard to shake off. He has never felt that his self-control was so weak.
"Stop talking."
Qin Zifu really didn't want to talk about what happened that day; she felt a little ashamed.
"I can't say anymore, really, it's just you. I've been waiting so long for you."
"You're too old, I don't agree."
"Old? You think your brother is too old?"
Qi Jingchen's eyes darkened, his lips pressed into a thin line, and he was so angry that he laughed.
"That's right, so much older."
Didn't you know I was so much older than you five years ago?
"How can they be the same?"
"What's different? Is your brother not working hard enough? Does it make you think your brother is old?"
Qi Jingchen gently bit her neck, as if as punishment.
"Huh? Can you be serious for once? Who told you to say I was too young before?"
"Brother was wrong, he didn't express himself clearly. Brother, please apologize. Fufu, don't be angry anymore, okay?"
Who would have thought that a powerful and influential CEO of the Qi Group would be completely controlled by a little girl, constantly saying sweet words to appease her and give her a chance?
Qi Jingchen patted Qin Zifu's back and then touched her head, waiting for her answer.
"No, if you reject me, I have to reject you too. Besides, is this how you confess to people? Girlfriend, marriage, who would agree? Does President Qi think that with your status, you can just bet someone and they'll be eager to agree?"
"Others can do it, but Fufu can't."
"Hmph"
"Okay, then I'll take this as a rejection. Next time, please think it over carefully, okay?"
Qi Jingchen had no choice but to coax her.
Let's talk about the future later.
"Stop playing word games with your brother."
Qin Zifu did not speak.
"Okay, I'll take you back to sleep."
"I'll go back myself. It's just across the street. Why bother delivering it?"
Upon hearing that she could go home, Qin Zifu quickly got up, shook her skirt to make it as smooth as possible, and walked towards the door after she was satisfied.
She pulled out her phone from her bag; in the midst of all the commotion, she had forgotten to ask if the two of them had arrived home yet. The first thing she saw on her phone was Aunt Liu's WeChat message.
Aunt Liu: Little Miss, I know, your father brought it up for you.
Then came news about her father.
"Damn, Qi Jingchen, thank goodness you dodged quickly, my dad just came up."
Qi Jingchen got up and followed behind her. To be honest, he was a little regretful, even if he was beaten up.
The two pushed the suitcases back first, and Qi Jingchen picked up all the spoils scattered on the ground for her. She was wearing a short skirt, so she definitely wouldn't squat down to pick things up.
Her dad must have seen this pile of things just now, right?
Sure enough, she saw her father's message, asking if the things were hers and why they were left outside.
She quickly replied to a message to avoid worrying them, and glanced down at the man picking up the things.
It has to be said that even the way this man squatted on the ground to pick things up made him look incredibly noble.
"Alright, take it inside."
Thank you, Brother Jingchen~ Goodnight!
Qin Zifu took the bag from her hand and blinked.
"Baby, don't seduce your brother, he's not a good person."
After saying that, he held Qin Zifu's head and kissed her hard.
"How can you just kiss me like that? I didn't agree to it! Let's go!"
After saying that, Qin Zifu gently pushed the person out with her soft, boneless hand and closed the door.
Qi Jingchen shook his head, his face full of doting affection. He stood at the door for a while, then turned and went back to his own home.
Fortunately, I managed to get the house from Gu Di'an back then.
