Chapter 41 Heartbeat 41 "Close your eyes"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Mian on the opposite side seemed to hear some crunching sounds and looked up.
Xu Youjing's jaw was tense, and his face looked so gloomy that it made people feel cold.
"address."
After hanging up the phone, he said "I'm leaving" and disappeared at the stairs.
Qiao Mian was the only one left on the spacious second floor.
She waved, and the waiter came over. She flipped through the menu and said, "Bring it up!"
..
As soon as Xu Youjing came out of the restaurant, he received the address sent by Xi Guan. He turned on the navigation on his mobile phone and threw it on the passenger seat. He changed the direction with one hand, leaving only a line of exhaust gas.
It was as if I was deliberately going against him, with red lights all the way.
While waiting, he glanced at the phone call and saw that ten minutes had passed since the call ended. She should have gone to the bar since she left, but she had been there for almost an hour?
The message sent fell on deaf ears and the phone calls went unanswered.
Xu Youjing suddenly felt a little frustrated.
He couldn't understand why everything was fine before the business trip, but now he was having dinner and ordering male models?
His fingers gripping the steering wheel trembled as he thought of what Qiao Mian said in the restaurant.
He didn't want to delay any longer. At the moment when the red light almost turned green, the dusty car with serial numbers rushed out of the intersection and drove away.
...
The nervous Xi Guan only understood the situation after making the phone call. When he learned that Wen Huai had only ordered and did not let anyone into the house, he knew that he was finished.
After giving Xu Youjing such a big mistake of being cuckolded, he would be stupid if he didn't leave.
After instructing someone to keep an eye on the person in the box, he hurried downstairs. When he was about to reach the turning point on the first floor, Xi Guan saw the man coming at him aggressively and swallowed his saliva.
"Brother Jing."
"Go away!"
The fierce and angry voice made him stumble, but Xi Guan still stopped him.
"Wait a moment, there's a misunderstanding!"
Without caring about anything, he lowered his voice and approached Xu Youjing, "The people here want to achieve sales results, and they are not clear about it. My sister-in-law accidentally ordered it and found out it was a male model, so she didn't let anyone in at all."
Xu Youjing's reaction was much worse than he expected.
He said almost calmly, "Are you done?"
Xi Guan nodded stupidly: "That's it."
Looking down at the funny way he was holding her, Xu Youjing's last bit of patience disappeared.
"Then don't let go."
"Oh oh oh."
Xi Guan realized it later and quickly stepped back, but did not give up his position.
He knew how possessive Xu Youjing was of the things he loved, not to mention his wife taking advantage of him being away on business to come to the bar and order a male model to get drunk. It was a good thing he didn't kill that male model!
Although it was a misunderstanding, the man was still very smart when he was angry, so he had to persuade him:
"Brother Jing, did you have a fight with your sister-in-law? If you have anything to say, just talk it out. Your sister-in-law is thinking about drinking because she feels wronged. Don't you think so?"
After hearing this, Xu Youjing's face darkened even more. "You let her drink?"
Xi Guan said innocently: "Why did I ask her to drink? It's natural for the customer to order it—Hey, Brother Jing! My sister-in-law is in room 2501!"
With a stride of his long legs, Xu Youjing stepped onto the three steps and went upstairs easily.
He heard the room number clearly and was looking for it, but he did not forget to glance back at Xi Guan and cursed inwardly: You are only 250.
In the box.
Wen Huai had a dream.
She dreamed that she had moved out of her home, and Aunt Ping was reluctant to let her go, crying and trying to keep her. Wen Huai hugged her, and they both cried bitterly. Finally, Aunt Ping asked her if she wanted to have lunch before leaving. Before she could respond, she heard a strange noise, pulling her mind out of the dream.
She was conscious and felt a cool breeze passing in front of her. She was about to open her eyes, but was caught off guard by a pair of cold eyes.
"Awake?" He sighed. "Is it uncomfortable?"
His heart trembled, and before Wen Huai could distinguish between a dream and reality, he blurted out: "Xu...Mr. Xu?"
Xu Youjing's cold eyes darkened.
Even when drunk, he still remembered that they were not husband and wife.
Or maybe, deep down, she never considered him her husband.
A self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of Boliang's lips. He raised his hand and touched the empty bottle, interrupting what he wanted to say.
The empty bottle rolled randomly across the floor until it landed beside his shoe. Xu Youjing picked it up and put it away, then turned to look at the table full of drinks, his forehead skipping a beat.
Are you trying to kill yourself?
His eyes swept over the bottles and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, only three bottles were opened and the others were left untouched.
He looked at the man who was obviously unconscious and said, "You have become more capable."
Thinking of the voice of "Mr. Xu" again, the evil fire suppressed in his chest made him very unhappy.
Leaning closer, he lowered his voice and reminded impatiently: "It's time to get off work, Wen Huai."
Wen Huai was originally woken up by someone, and was also drunk. It was rare for her to show her bad temper, and she glared at him with a frown.
But as she stared, her pupils reflected the man with the same frown on his face. When she came to her senses, the double image gradually merged and gathered in front of her eyes.
The anger at being disturbed disappeared.
She met the person she wanted to meet.
Suddenly, the tip of her nose felt a little sore. Wen Huai pursed her lips, her eyes became moist, and she looked at him innocently.
She nodded. "I know."
There was not a strong smell of alcohol in the box and the sound insulation was very good. A soft and very well-behaved voice was extremely clear, which dispelled most of Xu Youjing's irritability.
He met those eyes and his Adam's apple rolled.
Looking down, the pink lips were slightly opened. She was just breathing, but Xu Youjing felt that she was sucking away his air.
Otherwise, why would he find it difficult to breathe?
However, the person involved was still unaware and stared at him without blinking.
It was as if there was a catalyst in the air, secretly pushing a certain emotion to the peak, and then after reaching the critical point, it poured down.
Xu Youjing tightened his hands around her slender waist, pulled her closer, let her arm rest on his shoulders, and his breath fell on her neck.
Feeling the heat, the person in his arms became restless and began to struggle.
Xu Youjing knew that she was unwilling, but he was even more unwilling to let go.
With his hands clamping around her waist, he leaned forward, opened his mouth, and bit her plump, white earlobe.
"Hmm."
A soft groan made him withdraw his strength and step back.
Feeling the slight tremor in his arms, he slowed down his voice, still unwilling:
"So, Mrs. Xu, what does it mean to arrange a candlelight dinner for your husband with another woman?"
Wen Huai curled his lips, raised his hand to touch the bitten area, and glared at him.
"pain."
Xu Youjing: “…”
She complained: "How could you bite someone?"
Her expression was so aggrieved that Xu Youjing felt at a loss.
"I......"
Wen Huai suddenly straightened his expression, "Have you had lunch?"
He shook his head.
But she breathed a sigh of relief and questioned him: "Then bite me!"
Looking at the wrinkled little face, Xu Youjing sighed, compromised helplessly, and got up from the ground.
"I'm drunk after three cups, and forget everything when I wake up." He brushed his fingertips against the scent on his lips and held out his hand to her, "Just like the day you kissed me."
"Let's go."
Wen Huai didn't understand: "Where are you going?"
"go home."
Seeing that the person had no intention of leaving, Xu Youjing frowned and asked, "Where else do you want to go?"
He warned in a low voice: "I haven't settled the score with you for today yet, so don't even think about going anywhere."
Wen Huai nodded and shook his head, and made no sound.
Without waiting for Xu Youjing to ask, she stood up and was about to walk out. Suddenly, her feet felt numb and she leaned into Xu Youjing's arms.
Regardless of whether he was willing or not, she put her arms around his waist and murmured, "Let's go."
“…”
Letting her hold him, Xu Youjing bent over to take her cell phone and bag, and put the ring that was thrown in the corner into his pocket.
The hand holding the phone accidentally pressed a button, and he saw the Do Not Disturb mode icon in the upper left corner of the screen, and he understood why no one responded to his calls or WeChat messages.
He lowered his eyes to look at the person who closed his eyes in his arms, "Wen Huai, do you regret it?"
"Um?"
Wen Huai tried to open her eyes, but they didn't open. Before her consciousness faded, she heard a whisper softer than the wind:
"Do you regret marrying me?"
...
Xi Guan was waiting on the first floor. He heard some noise coming from the stairs. He turned around and saw Xu Youjing coming down carrying someone. He raised his eyebrows.
Is this... reconciliation?
He went over to take Wen Huai's bag, then walked out with him holding an umbrella. "Is sister-in-law drunk again?"
Feeling the cold gaze from his side, Xi Guan coughed, "Brother Chi is organizing a party tonight, are you going?"
Xu Youjing lowered his eyes.
Looking at his arm that was wet by the falling rain, the gloom in his eyes became even deeper.
It has been raining all night and it has started to rain again. Is it never going to stop?
He was impatient: "It's raining, why are you going out?"
"Then I'll tell Brother Chi." Xi Guan opened the door and waited for him to walk to the driver's seat before saying, "It's raining, drive slowly on the road, Brother Jing."
The driver looked up, his gaze finally lingering on his half-drenched clothes. He finally compromised and said, "Thank you for your hard work today. I won't go tonight. I'm tired after driving all night."
This last sentence is an explanation.
"Let's go back. It's raining heavily."
"Um."
Xi Guan was confused and responded, watching the car leave.
What's happening with Brother Jing? He becomes gentle after a quarrel?
"Eh, that's corny."
-
The rain that was about to stop showed signs of getting heavier. In just a moment, the raindrops hit the leaves with a roar like a torrential rain.
The entire North City was shrouded in thick dark clouds, without a trace of light.
It seems like this is a magnificent event with no end.
In the villa on Beiwei Road, Xiao Chen pushed open the door of his room. He was first surprised by the furnishings in the room, but then, without thinking too much, he blocked the suitcase to let the person behind him in.
The lights in the room were off, and Xu Youjing was so focused on the person in his arms that he didn't pay much attention to the room. He quickly put the person on the bed and asked Aunt Ping to wipe her with a towel.
Seeing Xiao Chen's hesitation in speaking, he shifted his gaze and saw the suitcase he was protecting behind him.
He recognized it; it belonged to Wen Huai.
Only then did Xu Youjing notice that all the things she brought into the room were gone, even the incense burner on the bedside table had disappeared.
What's not to understand?
She is leaving.
She regretted it.
She wants a divorce.
"Mr. Xu, is there a misunderstanding with your wife?" He was a nice guy. He said he went out to play with friends in the morning, but he came back smelling of alcohol. This... Aunt Ping didn't tell him.
Xu Youjing shook his head. He found his phone, scrolled through the list, and said, "Please get me a basin of water first. Her clothes are wet and uncomfortable."
Xiao Chen stumbled.
He knew that the two were not a real couple, and Aunt Ping, the only woman in the villa, was not there, so who would change the water after fetching it?
Xu Youjing seemed to see through his thoughts and said in a hoarse voice: "Go and fight, I'll take over."
...
The clock hands moved a small notch on the dial, and in the quiet room, the only sounds left were the even breathing and the intermittent sound of water.
Xu Youjing wrung out the towel and wiped Wen Huai's exposed arm. He didn't stop until all the exposed skin was wiped clean. The man sitting by the window had a look of hesitation in his eyes.
He looked at the peaceful sleeping person.
Even in his sleep, he frowned. How unwilling was he?
He was also ridiculous, and only realized it now.
With every breath, Xu Youjing seemed afraid of disturbing the sleeping person, but also afraid that she didn't hear him and would blame him for cheating.
He asked softly, "If you don't wake up, I'll take off your clothes."
No one answered. After a few seconds, the person beside the bed raised his hand to help the person up. Before he touched the clothes, he looked into the eyes of Wen Huai who had opened his eyes.
"you......"
"Xu Youjing." She looked at the person clearly, held the hand that was about to leave, her eyes flashing, "Didn't you have lunch?"
Xu Youjing smiled, "No."
Although she had asked it once in the bar and he had answered it, he did not show any impatience when she asked it again this time.
"You eat—"
"I want to kiss you."
He was stunned. "What did you say?"
Wen Huai held his hand tightly, as if afraid that he would leave. He didn't bother to answer and leaned in to kiss him on the lips.
The brief warmth is like a wind that leaves no trace, but it evokes some memories and heat.
Xu Youjing pressed his palm against her, his throat hoarse.
"Close your eyes."
She did as she was told, and her obedient look was like a thorn in his eyes, pricking him painfully.
His hand on her waist pressed against hers, and she was brought into his arms. He used his eyes to memorize every inch of her skin at such close range, until his gaze fell on her lips.
"Now that you're awake this time, don't think it counts."
Her thick eyelashes trembled, and before Wen Huai could open his eyes, his lips were covered softly.
