Midway through the banquet, Qiu Hu pretended to twist her leg as she went down the stairs. Ning Yizhan quickly helped her find a place to sit down, knelt down on one knee, and carefully examined her foot, pressing on her ankle. "Does it hurt here?"
She wasn't in any pain at all, but she pretended to be.
"I'll take you to the island's medical center."
"No need, brother, can you take me back to my room? It's upstairs, and there's medicine in the room." As Ning Yizhan looked down to check his injuries, Qiu Hu blinked frantically, forcing his eyes to redden.
Sure enough, Ning Yizhan noticed her red eyes, his heart softened, and he agreed, "Okay." Then, remembering the foot that had just hurt so much that she couldn't stand up, he bent down, picked her up, and carried her upstairs.
In the room, Ning Yizhan had just placed her on the sofa when he looked down at Qiu Hu. Qiu Hu was still clinging to his neck, her arms wrapped around him, and she even buried her face in Ning Yizhan's neck.
Ning Yizhan paused, his expression puzzled. "What's wrong?"
Qiu Hu released his arms from his neck, looked at his face and said, "Brother, may I kiss you?"
"What did you say?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Ning Yizhan's cool lips were pressed against by a sweet, soft touch, like a dragonfly skimming the water, before it was gone in an instant. Then, the sweet, soft lips moved closer to him again. Ning Yizhan snapped back to reality, pulled his face back slightly, and asked in an icy tone, "Do you know what you're doing?"
When Qiu Hu realized that Ning Yizhan hadn't pushed her away, she knew there was hope. "Kiss you, brother, can I kiss you again?" After saying that, she kissed him again, but this time it wasn't a light, fleeting kiss.
At first, she closed her eyes and awkwardly kissed him, her lips pressed against his, but Ning Yizhan didn't give her any response. She was a little discouraged; why wasn't this man reacting at all? An idea came to her, and she stuck out her tongue to lick his lower lip.
Ning Yizhan's mind went blank. How dare this woman? In a moment of impulsiveness, he opened his lips, and Qiu Hu's tongue entered.
Qiu Hu blushed. What was going on? She licked his tongue, stopped, and ended the shameful kiss.
"I wouldn't dare." Before Qiu Hu could react, Ning Yizhan's kiss came at her, starting gently but turning into a storm.
Qiu Hu clutched the man's clothes with both hands, barely able to breathe. She was only able to catch her breath when Ning Yizhan released her.
Judging that the time was about right, Qiu Hu kissed Ning Yizhan again and even took off his suit jacket. This action puzzled and made Ning Yizhan nervous. Was it really that fast? Just as he was about to push Qiu Hu away, Qiu Hu hugged him tightly.
Then, Qiu Hu touched Ning Yizhan's abs through his shirt, his hand moving upwards to unbutton his shirt, making Ning Yizhan feel uncomfortable all over, his whole body tense, and his breathing became heavier.
Ning Yizhan scooped her up and carried her to the bed. They fell onto the bed together, their lips entwined. Ning Yizhan's lips moved down, kissing her neck.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and then the people outside burst in. Leading the way was Fu Shen, followed by an investment tycoon from the neighboring city, and behind them were Ning Shuzai and Lian Zhi, Ning's parents, all looking furious.
Instead, Ning Yizhan calmly pulled the blanket over Qiu Hu first, asking, "Why did you all come here?" He looked as if he was being questioned and disturbed.
"I never expected you to be this kind of person. You have no integrity whatsoever. Let's end our cooperation here!" The investment tycoon spoke first, glanced at Qiu Hu, whose eyes were red and lips were swollen, and then left.
Ning Yizhan looked bewildered at his parents and asked, "What happened?"
"I was about to ask you the same thing! What are you doing here? You guys, you guys, Ning Yizhan, you've gone too far!" He turned to Qiu Hu, whose eyes were red and swollen, and said, "Ah Hu, are you alright? It's all this kid's fault for forcing you. I'm so sorry."
"What? What coercion? She said she hurt her foot, and I took her back..." Ning Yizhan tried to explain, but was interrupted by Qiu Hu's crying. By this time, Qiu Hu had climbed out and was standing by the bed. As a result, Ms. Lian Zhi successfully misunderstood. "Well, you still lied. You dare to do it but not admit it. How did I raise such a bastard like you?"
Ning Yizhan was also furious and yelled at Qiu Hu, "No, I didn't, explain yourself!"
Qiu Hu looked up at Fu Shen, but Fu Shen avoided her gaze. However, the sharp-eyed Ning Yizhan realized that he had been tricked and used, and it was a honey trap.
The Fu family and Ning Yizhan, who was making his own way in the world, were originally rivals. Recently, they even approached the same investor. Now that the Fu family is in dire straits and desperately needs this investment, they have set their sights on Ning Yizhan.
Ning Yizhan's eyes were icy as he pointed at Qiu Hu in the hotel room, "Damn it, I'll never trust a woman again in my life, especially a damn woman like you..."
Qiu Hu wanted to explain, "No..." but before she could finish, Lian Zhi stopped her, "Xiao Hu, it's all my brat's fault. I'll make him apologize to you properly, and you can do whatever you want to him then." She turned and glared at her son, "You, you, go home and reflect on your actions, apologize properly to her. She's a nice young lady, otherwise don't even think about going out. You're such a disgrace!"
After looking at each other, they both recalled the scene of their first meeting.
Qiu Hu felt a little embarrassed, uneasy at the sudden hug and concern. She remembered that he had hugged her like this three years ago, and that they had almost... Her face flushed slightly, and she felt somewhat ashamed. "Um... it's okay."
Ning Yizhan noticed her unease and blushing. Actually, he no longer minded what happened three years ago. He thought that this time, they should have a different beginning.
Seeing that her foot was indeed fine, I suddenly felt like teasing her, so I moved a little closer to her face and asked, "Are you sure you're okay? Is your foot injury real? Why is your face so red?"
