So be it, who's afraid of who!
Qiu Hu turned her back to the man, took off her nightgown, picked up the skirt and put it on, the last step being to unzip the back of the skirt.
She was about to put her hands behind her back when Ning Yizhan stopped her, "I'll do it!"
Before she could refuse, he reached out and touched the zipper pull. It seemed like a smooth motion, but in fact, his hand kept inadvertently touching her back, creating an ambiguous atmosphere.
He moved a little closer to her, his lips brushing against her left earlobe, and his magnetic voice rang in her ear, "From now on, I want to help you with your zippers."
After saying that, Ning Yizhan walked out of the dressing room, leaving Qiu Hu behind, her ears red and her heart pounding. She really felt like she was going crazy. When did she become like this? She was definitely not like this before.
Reflecting on her experiences and emotional journey during this period, she concluded that the most likely scenario was when he came to rescue her at the airport in Country K. He appeared like a god, leading a group of people against the light, and even among a group of tall people, his brilliance could not be concealed.
Then, he sent his men to fight against Colin's men, and she was finally able to catch her breath. Her eyes began to follow him, and she saw him beating Fu Shen with all his might. Fu Shen couldn't defend himself at all. She had some experience with this kind of thing. She didn't realize how strong he was. Every punch landed hard, and his technique was ruthless. She was sure that although Fu Shen wasn't crippled and could still walk at the time, the aftereffects were still there. He definitely wouldn't be able to get out of bed for at least a month.
He was angry, and she tirelessly tried to coax him. She just didn't want him to be angry with her; she just couldn't let him be.
Ayi said she was love-struck, so be it. At this moment, she wanted to be love-struck only towards Ning Yizhan.
As she walked along, she had already applied light makeup and left the master bedroom to find Ning Yizhan.
Ning Yizhan looked at that aloof yet alluring face. He knew that many people coveted her, but so what? She belonged only to him.
His expressionless face broke into a smile. "It's a bit late today, so let's eat this for now. I'll get up earlier tomorrow and make you something delicious."
“Okay,” Qiu Hu said, not being picky at all. He picked up his knife and fork and started eating the simple Western breakfast.
Look! How obedient his little woman is! He sat down to eat with her, his eyes full of affection.
After taking a few bites, Qiu Hu asked, "Will you take me to work later?" She had been going to work by herself these past few days.
"Send it."
"But you didn't bring me any for the past few days. You were giving me the silent treatment!" Qiu Hu poked at the bread she didn't want to eat, and asked with a pout, looking down at her.
Well, this woman is starting to bring up old grievances!
"I won't do it again," Ning Yizhan was indeed still angry those days. She was also injured, so he didn't dare to touch her. Every morning, he would get up, cook breakfast, put it on the table, and go to work early.
"Oh, okay then," Qiu Hu moved her breakfast in front of him. "I don't want to eat it anymore, you can eat it for me."
"..." Ning Yizhan watched her keep poking at the bread on the plate. Goodness, she ate the meat and eggs herself and left the bread for him. She used to eat it. Well, he's spoiled her. "Fine, but you have to drink the milk!"
After finishing breakfast, Ning Yizhan drove her to work.
When they arrived at the Qiu family's residence, the two lingered for a while, and he kissed her forehead to say goodbye, saying, "I'll pick you up after get off work. Be a good girl and wait for me. We'll go back tonight and finish what we didn't finish earlier."
Country K, Colin Manor.
Qiao Ri was getting really anxious because no news had come back from those who followed Qiu Hu.
"Where is Fu Shen? Find him for me!"
"Mr. Fu is still in bed and can't get up. It will probably be a while before he can get out of bed," Qiao Ri's confidant replied.
"You were able to walk that day, how did you get so badly injured?" "Heh, you weren't faking it, were you!"
"According to my observation, Fu Shen's injuries are real, and the doctor also said so."
"Where's that necklace? It's been almost half a month, and they still haven't figured out its secrets?"
"I was just about to report this to you, sir, when our men said that the necklace was just an ordinary necklace and they hadn't discovered any secrets inside."
Qiao Riwei was slightly angry. "Impossible. I heard Qiu Jing and Qi Yan'er say that with my own ears that day. I couldn't have misheard." After thinking for a moment, "That means they already know the secret. We're still a step too late."
The secret in the necklace could very well save his life.
"Go, or take some men and follow Qiu Hu, but don't alert him."
After everyone in the living room had left, Qiao Ri rubbed his forehead in distress, feeling that this year was unlucky for him. Should he go and pray to a shrine?
He feels that he has been having headaches more and more frequently lately, and his energy is getting worse and worse; he can't even muster the energy to get angry.
Before we knew it, it was the weekend.
On the eve of the weekend, the two had just returned home when Ning Yizhan pulled Qiu Hu into his arms. Just as he was about to kiss her, Qiu Hu covered his mouth.
"No, we have guests tonight, they might arrive a little later."
"What guest?"
“Ah Yi said that Wei Zhouyu is very important, so I asked them to come over,” Qiu Hu said, knowing that he was unhappy that their time together had been interrupted. “Good boy, show some manners as the master of the house.”
Ning Yizhan was about to refuse when he was amused by the term "male host." Fine, he couldn't possibly stop her from making friends, could he? He figured there would definitely be other situations like this in the future, and he couldn't let Qiu Hu lose face.
"Okay, when are they coming?"
"They said they'll arrive soon after dinner! Let's eat something simple first!"
Ning Yizhan went into the kitchen and made Qiu Hu a simple pasta dish. As they were eating, the doorbell rang. Ning Yizhan volunteered to open the door and, upon seeing them, said in a calm tone, "You're here. Come in!" He then made way for them.
The three people outside the door were shocked. This was Ning Yizhan? He even made way for them! Amazing, so amazing! Or was he trained by Qiu Hu?
The three of them stepped into the house, changed into disposable slippers prepared by Ning Yizhan, and entered the inner room. Having followed Qiu Hu for so many years, A Yi could tell at a glance Qiu Hu's preferred style.
"You're here! Have a seat, I'll be right there after I finish eating," Qiu Hu's voice came from the dining table.
Ning Yizhan returned to the dining table and noticed that Qiu Hu was eating almost wolfing down his food. "Eat slowly, don't rush," he said.
"knew!"
Under Ning Yizhan's gaze, Qiu Hu slowed down. After finishing his meal, he put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm going now."
"Okay, go ahead," Ning Yizhan said, and only then did she leave.
When Qiu Hu entered the living room, he saw the three of them staring at the clothes in the dining room with expressions of utter disbelief. A Yi was the first to speak, "You, are you henpecked?"
"...", surely not.
The three were about to continue eating when they saw Ning Yizhan take bowls and chopsticks into the kitchen. The room was quiet enough that they could clearly hear the sound of water.
The three of them said in unison, "Does the boss wash the dishes?"
