She could make him laugh anytime, anywhere—not because she really wanted to laugh, but because she was annoyed.
What are you laughing at? Don't get it in my eyes.
"I told you not to cry, and you told me you'd try your best?"
"Well, I can't guarantee that completely. People's emotions are too hard to control. What if you make me angry later and then you won't let me cry?"
I won't make you angry, nor will I want to hurt you, so don't cry.
Don't make promises you can't keep.
"Are you feeling better? Want to sleep?"
"Hmm, I feel better. I'll go take off my face mask now."
Go ahead.
Qi Jingchen went to the kitchen, washed the spoon, and put it away before turning and going to the bedroom.
This was his first time in Qin Zifu's bedroom. The walls were light purple, and the curtains were light green, creating an overall fresh and gentle atmosphere.
This room seems to have been renovated; it's quite different from his. His room hasn't been changed; it's all the way it was originally.
The adjacent secondary bedroom was opened up and connected to the original walk-in closet, turning it into a large walk-in closet with a sofa, a large full-length mirror, and a fluffy carpet on the floor.
Qin Zifu was doing her skincare routine at her vanity. After removing the face mask, her face looked like a peeled egg, white and tender. Qi Jingchen watched her apply the creams and lotions again and again, and then she used some kind of device on her face.
She worked on it slowly, and he waited quietly. It was twenty minutes later when she finished.
"All done?"
"Okay, that's settled then."
"You look beautiful enough, let me blow-dry your hair."
Okay!
Qin Zifu stood in front of the mirror, watching Qi Jingchen holding a hairdryer, gently blowing his hair as his slender fingers ran through it with tender movements.
Qin Zifu quietly looked in the mirror, waiting for her hair to dry little by little. Qi Jingchen dried her hair very carefully until it was completely dry before turning off the hairdryer.
"alright?"
"Okay, all done."
Qi Jingchen hugged Qin Zifu from behind, letting her lean against him.
"It smells so good, what kind of shower gel is it?"
"Camellia"
"Mmm, smells good."
The two lingered there for a while longer, and Qin Zifu noticed that Qi Jingchen was the same way, always lingering and wanting to hug someone in one place for a while.
I'm sleepy~
Without saying a word, Qi Jingchen picked up Qin Zifu and placed her on the bed.
"Cover it up."
Then I turned off all the lights in the room, leaving only a desk lamp.
"It's a promise, no lewdness."
"Hmm, not at all arousing, but if you want, I can cooperate."
"I don't want to, but you're on probation."
Qin Zifu wrapped herself in the quilt.
"Come out, get some sleep, don't stay cooped up."
As he spoke, he lay down on the other side and casually freed the person from under the covers.
Qin Zifu suddenly burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at? Not happy with just chatting under the covers?"
"No, brother, you and pink sheets go so well together!"
"..."
Qi Jingchen had never slept on pink sheets in his life, but today he had the privilege of experiencing it.
"Looking forward to sleeping in your pink sheets every day"
Qi Jingchen rolled over and lay on top of Qin Zifu, supporting himself on his arms on either side.
Close your eyes
He gently kissed her slightly swollen eyes, forehead, and the tip of her nose, then down to her lips.
"Baby, open your mouth."
Qin Zifu's mind was blank at this moment. She just listened to him and opened her mouth slightly. Qi Jingchen's tongue probed in and tasted the sweetness.
He only let go when he felt the person in his arms could no longer bear it. Qi Jingchen lay on top of her, breathing heavily, his lips touching her earlobe and sucking on it. He had been restraining himself every moment for the past two days.
"Qi Jingchen, are you sure I can fall asleep like this?"
"Sweetheart, go to sleep, I'll hold you while I sleep."
Lie down on one side, pull her into your arms, and gently pat her back.
"You need to go back in a bit, otherwise if my parents or my brother come over, we'll find out."
Qi Jingchen sighed deeply. He never imagined that his relationship would be so unappreciated that he had to come and go in secret.
Looking down at the person in my arms with their eyes closed, what could I do?
"Okay, I'll leave once you're asleep. Go to sleep."
Qin Zifu fell asleep very quickly in Qi Jingchen's arms, probably because she didn't have time to think about anything else before going to sleep, and soon her breathing became even.
Qi Jingchen looked at the person in his arms for a long time. She was sleeping and had a more serene look. She was no longer the charming girl she usually was. She was just a young lady who should be pampered. In the past few years, she had experienced things that most girls her age had not.
In that instant, his heartache for her was amplified infinitely, something she never spoke of.
I watched for a while longer, reluctant to leave, and finally lingered for more than an hour before getting up and returning to that cold, gray bed. I don't know how long it took before I finally felt sleepy.
On the other hand, Qin Zifu, who was sitting opposite, slept very well and slept soundly until dawn.
I wouldn't have woken up if the phone hadn't rung.
Qin Zifu stretched out her fair hand, touched the spot next to the pillow, and then picked up her phone and put it to her ear.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
"I'm at the door, please open it."
"oh"
Qin Zifu got up and checked the time. Six-thirty? Why are you here so early?
I put on my slippers, half-opened my eyes, and staggered to open the door.
"Brother, what's the matter so early?"
"It's nothing, I just happened to be passing by and brought breakfast with me."
Gu Di'an placed breakfast in the dining room.
"Oh, I'm not hungry right now, I'll eat later."
Qin Zifu poured a glass of water. Gu Di'an looked around, went to the bathroom, and glanced at the bedroom when he came out.
He might be overthinking it.
"Fufu, were you alright yesterday?"
Are you referring to the matter of visiting Brother Yu Gui, or the matter of it trending on social media?
"All of them"
"It's okay, it doesn't affect me at all, I'm fine."
"Alright, it's a family dinner at the old house on Saturday. You can keep sleeping, I'm going to work."
"good"
Gu Di'an got up immediately, while Qin Zifu didn't even get up, but lay down on the sofa. Gu Di'an went out and closed the door behind him.
Gu Di'an saw Qi Jingchen leave while waiting for the elevator.
"You're here to see your sister again?"
"Hmm, I'm worried."
Gu Di'an glanced at Qi Jingchen, who was quite open and generous in letting him see.
"What's there to worry about? She's so grown up now, and her parents live in this building."
"You don't have a sister, you wouldn't understand."
"Oh"
He doesn't have a sister, yet he managed to kidnap yours. What's he so smug about?
The two parted ways when they reached the underground parking garage; one went to the Gu family, and the other went to the Qi family.
"Li Wen"
"Mr. Qi, what are your orders?"
"I'll send you the pictures. Buy these items and send them to Xiyuan as soon as possible."
"good"
When Li Wen went out, he saw the pictures his boss had sent him. Aren't these all women's handbags, clothes, jewelry, and shoes?
His name was Li Wen, but he didn't dare to ask. Although the boss seemed to be in a better mood these past two days, the boss's mind was like a needle at the bottom of the sea. He just needed to get things done as soon as he was told.
After waking up, Qin Zifu quickly washed up, ate the breakfast her brother had brought her early that morning, and picked up her phone.
Me and my concubines:
Fu: Are you going to the beauty salon today?
Fairy Tang: Shall we go find Sister Luo Dan?
fu: Yes, I'll also get a beauty treatment and a full-body massage.
Su Nuo: I'm at school. I have classes today, so I can leave early this afternoon.
Fu: Okay, then we can go to the gym for a while, and then get a beauty treatment and a full-body massage, so we don't have to stretch ourselves.
Su Nuo: Sure, a full-body massage after a workout feels so good!
Fairy Tang: I envy you all. You live in the same building, and the clubhouse is just a few minutes' walk away. Unlike me… *pouting*
Fu: Isn't it easy for Tang Fupo to buy a house in Xiyuan?
Fairy Tang: You're not as rich as me. My parents won't let me live outside. I'm already this old, and I still have to live with my parents every day. Don't I have any dignity?
Su Nuo: Saving face isn't important; what's important is putting in the effort to date.
Tang Fairy: Then the fact that I've never been in a relationship must be my parents' fault.
Fu: Although I live alone, I'm not completely alone. You don't understand the excitement of living in the same building as your parents.
Moreover, her neighbor across the hall has a boyfriend who is currently on probation and in a secret relationship, but Qin Zifu didn't say this.
