Ning Yizhan didn't hide anything, because she would find out sooner or later. "What you're saying is true. She was indeed quite well-behaved and cute before. But ever since she went to high school, she met two girls who were two years ahead of her. One was Guan Moran, and the other I forgot her name, let's call her A for now. Since then, she's been acting like a little delinquent. Can you believe it? She even brought them home. She was already acting like a little delinquent, and A was acting like a little delinquent too. Only Guan Moran wore a white dress and had long, straight black hair. It's hard to imagine how they got along. She and A would yell at the maids at home, while Guan Moran seemed to be the one cleaning up the mess and fussing over the maids."
Qiu Hu imagined what Ning Yijia, the delinquent girl, would look like, but he couldn't picture it.
Ning Yizhan continued to recall, "Then the accident happened. She was 18 and I was 21. I had already moved out. That night I was walking my dog, which my grandma gave me. I had raised it for twelve years. Its name was Haifeng. Suddenly I received a call from Ning Yijia, saying she wanted to save her. I was afraid something might happen to her, so I took Haifeng with me and went."
"As soon as I arrived at the address she gave me, she and A opened the back door and got in. My car was then surrounded by a group of people. I immediately called the police and honked the horn repeatedly, but they wouldn't back down. I knew this wasn't going to work; they kept shouting for me to hand over the people inside. I got out of the car and tried to negotiate with them. After getting out, I learned that A had stabbed one of their people and called Ning Yijia for help. She actually went; she knew Ning Yijia was used to being willful and that she was from the Ning family. When I tried to negotiate further, A climbed into the driver's seat, opened the passenger door, pushed Haifeng out, and made Ning Yijia sit in the passenger seat because Ning Yijia had told A that it was okay, her brother would handle it. A tried to drive a path, but this angered the group, and they started attacking me, and even Haifeng. Haifeng was beaten to death by them."
"All of their actions were because of Guan Moran. She offended those people and pretended to be pitiful to get them to take revenge for her, which is why they went. A only told me this recently when she was terminally ill in prison. All three of them were led by Guan Moran."
"Looks like this gentle and generous Miss Guan is a fake!" Suddenly the tone shifted, "That Ning Yijia is so stupid, so stupid that it's giving me a phobia of stupidity. Hasn't she noticed all these years?"
"That's why I say she's not very bright!"
Qiu Hu turned around and hugged Ning Yizhan, whose face was deep in thought, wrapping his arms around his waist. "Take it slow, she will get better."
Ning Yizhan hugged her back, his arms around her shoulders, his cheek pressed against her hair, "But I'm so sad that Haifeng is dead."
The woman beneath him didn't speak again, but moved a little closer to him and gently patted Ning Yizhan's back, comforting him.
The two continued to hug, and Qiu Hu, remembering the watch, frowned and asked, "Did Guan Moran give you a watch?"
“I gave it to you, I gave it to you yesterday, but I didn’t accept it because I already have this.” Ning Yizhan showed the watch on his left wrist. “Do you know…”
He was interrupted as Qiu Hu answered first, "I know! I thought this watch looked familiar before, and then I remembered, this watch is a gift from me, but I didn't pick it out, Awan picked it out."
"No wonder."
"I'll give you another one; I picked it myself."
"Okay." Ning Yizhan couldn't have been happier. He released Qiu Hu, grabbed Qiu Hu's shoulders, and said, "Qiu Hu, let's be together!"
Qiu Hu looked up into his eyes, a bright smile on her face, "Okay!"
Ning Yizhan had given up hope, thinking Qiu Hu would reject her again. When she heard "okay," she thought she was hallucinating and hesitantly asked again, "What did you say? You said okay?"
Qiu Hu's eyes still held a smile. "Yes, I said yes."
The two looked at each other with smiles on their faces, and Ning Yizhan's magnetic voice rang out again, "You said it, you can't go back on your word."
"Um".
The atmosphere between them gradually changed from sadness to romance.
The two continued to gaze at each other, looking into each other's eyes. His hand, which had been holding Qiu Hu's shoulder, moved upwards, caressing her face. His eyes were filled with love, and his face gradually magnified in Qiu Hu's eyes until she could no longer see his face. He kissed her soft red lips, the scent of cedarwood, both cool and warm, lingering around her nose. Her heart pounded, and she closed her eyes. Then, wave after wave of heat spread across her lips, from gentle kisses to deep penetrations, fiery and lingering. She could hardly bear it and gripped his clothes tightly with both hands.
He only let go when Qiu Hu struggled to breathe and patted his shoulder. Qiu Hu's voice was hoarse. "I'm suffocating!"
Ning Yizhan held the back of her head with one hand, and his lazy, magnetic voice came from her ear, "Then I'll take Miss to practice her lung capacity more often in the future."
"..." There's no need for that.
"Let's go, girlfriend, I'll take you home." Ning Yizhan took Qiu Hu's hand, their fingers intertwined.
"Are we going back?"
Ning Yizhan mimicked her tone, "Hmm."
Back in Golden Bay, she understood why he had brought her back so early.
The journey from Ningzhai to Jinyinwan usually takes only an hour, but Ning Yizhan stretched it to two hours. He dawdled for twenty minutes as soon as he got in the car, and after closing the door, he started kissing Qiu Hu. It was even more outrageous after they got out of the car, dawdling for more than half an hour.
Qiu Hu got out of the car with swollen lips and red eyes. Her heart was still pounding and she could barely stand. She could still hear a man's voice from inside the car, "Baby, goodnight. I'll pick you up tomorrow."
Qiu Hu blushed when he was called "baby." "Why are you calling me baby?"
"If I don't call you baby, who should I call baby? You are my baby, baby."
Qiu Hu covered his ears and left the place in a daze, his usual calm demeanor completely gone.
After Qiu Hu left, Ning Yizhan was still in the car, entertaining himself, "Baby, baby, baby~", he could finally call her baby openly, Qiu Hu was finally his, he took out his phone and sent a voice message to Qiu Hu.
"Baby, are you free tomorrow?"
"Baby, what do you want for breakfast tomorrow?"
"Baby, let's go on a date tomorrow!"
"Baby, is there anywhere you want to go?"
"Baby, do you know how much I love you?"
"Baby, do you know how well we match?"
"Baby, I love you the most!"
"..."
"..."
"Baby, why haven't you replied to me yet? I'm getting anxious and insecure because of this."
When Qiu Hu returned home and calmed down, she realized that A Yi was still waiting for her at the Ning residence. She called him back and found that Ning Yizhan had sent her more than a dozen voice messages. She listened to every single one of them. After finally calming down, her heart started to wander again. Every message started with the same "Baby~".
She gave him a general reply: no, I don't know, bye.
