Chapter 105 Chapter 105 "How pitiful, Xia Xia will...
For the next period of time, Shen Xingchuan stayed in City S. In addition to working remotely, he cooked for Yao Yingxia in various ways.
During this period, the group's directors and senior executives bombarded him with requests, and the matters that needed to be handled personally by him had piled up. Shen Xingchuan felt that his subordinates seemed too incompetent.
He endured the pressure and stayed until the day before the beginning of summer, spending Xu Nian's birthday with Yao Yingxia.
Shen Xingchuan bought a cake and took her to a restaurant that Xu Nian loved very much. Yao Yingxia drank some wine and only found it was raining when she went out.
There was an endless stream of traffic on the wide road in front of her. In Yao Yingxia's slightly tipsy eyes, it seemed that the whole world had gone into slow motion. She could even see the raindrops falling.
Perhaps in a rare moment like this, she could penetrate the dark fog.
Yao Yingxia raised her head.
Almost at the same moment, Shen Xingchuan also looked down at her.
Yao Yingxia clearly saw her own reflection in those deep eyes, like a small, dim flame.
"It turns out I can glow." She said with a smile.
Shen Xingchuan understood this incomprehensible sentence.
He was very glad that to this day, this meteor that was forced to fall could still shine, although the price of trapping her was the pain of being burned.
The next second, the complicated expression on his face turned into surprise.
Yao Yingxia's hand grabbed the collar of his shirt, forcing him to bend down slightly, and then his lips were gently kissed.
The surprise only lasted for a short moment, and soon Shen Xingchuan took the initiative and held her face.
In the black car parked at the roadside, Shen Qingyuan watched them kissing as if no one was around. If it weren't for Yao Yingxia's presence, it would have looked like a carefully staged close-up shot in a movie.
On a rainy night, with bright lights in the background, a tall and handsome man, a slender and beautiful girl, and a passionate and enthusiastic kiss, everything is just right.
Shen Qingyuan heard another voice say to him, "Don't be stubborn anymore. You'll only push her further away."
He stared at that spot without blinking, said "Shut up", and then sneered: "Do you think that being weak and restrained like you can win her true heart?"
Just as the voice was about to say something else, Shen Qingyuan had already punched the car window. The loud crash was accompanied by his low growl: "Go back."
Finally, the annoying voice disappeared completely, and in this brief interval, my uncle and sister disappeared together.
The restaurant was located in the business district opposite the residential complex. It only took the two of them ten minutes to get home. Their clothes were soaked through, sticking tightly to their skin, outlining their muscles and curves. Their breathing became like a deliberate seduction.
Shen Xingchuan was too lazy to unbutton his shirt one by one. He just pulled it and heard a series of ruffling sounds. Soon Yao Yingxia was stripped naked by him, and the two of them quickly entangled with each other again.
The rain made her skin colder than usual, but thanks to Shen Xingchuan's efforts, she quickly warmed up.
Yao Yingxia is really cute when she is drunk. Only at such rare moments will she let go of her worries and her body becomes incredibly soft and juicy.
The feeling of happiness that made her so happy was so good that before she knew it, daybreak was almost here. After the last exciting battle, Shen Xingchuan fell on her like a collapsing mountain.
The solid weight made this night of indulgence feel very real, and Yao Yingxia had already sobered up.
Shen Xingchuan thought uncontrollably that she didn't seem to hate him as much as before, and the body's reaction couldn't be faked.
Yao Yingxia was suffocating from the pressure, and seeing that he was hesitant to move, she raised her hand and pushed him: "Shen."
Shen Xingchuan raised his arms and calmly proposed a solution: "Then you'll be on top next time?"
Her eyes were filled with panic, and her face suddenly turned red. The burning heat spread to the tips of her ears and neck, and also affected him.
Shen Xingchuan smiled and kissed her face randomly. His newly grown stubble made her feel a little itchy. Yao Yingxia had to remind him, "Your flight is at nine o'clock."
They have no time for any more fooling around.
Before leaving, Shen Xingchuan was in a bad mood. He sat on the sofa with her in his arms for a long time without saying a word, until the driver knocked on the door and urged: "Mr. Shen, it will be too late if we don't leave now."
Shen Xingchuan then let her go. He probably had a lot to say, but in the end he just told her to eat well.
The moment the door closed, Yao Yingxia returned to the bedroom with a sense of relief, tore off the sheets that were stained with his scent, and threw them into the washing machine.
On the way to the airport, Shen Xingchuan saw a strong reminder on his phone, indicating that Xiao An had sent a text message to Yao Yingxia. He clicked it and read it twice with a cold expression: "After you finish your defense, let's find a way to meet in person, okay?"
The bad mood caused by the separation suddenly became even worse. He had really lost his mind in the gentle embrace and almost forgot that not long ago, Yao Yingxia was still discussing divorce with Xiao An.
The man chuckled and looked at the shadows of the trees passing quickly outside the car window, with a flash of murderous intent in his eyes.
What could he do? Yao Yingxia would never be alone. If Xiao An dared to show up again, he would send someone to break his legs.
Shen Xingchuan's low mood continued until the plane landed. He held the phone the whole time, somewhat reluctant to face the answer given by Yao Yingxia.
Recently, the relationship between the two has become obviously ambiguous, and Shen Xingchuan remembered the kiss on the rainy night last night.
It was obviously her who took the initiative.
Two-timing is not what a good girl does.
Shen Xingchuan wanted to completely cut off the connection between the two people. A more civilized way would be to control Yao Yingxia's mobile phone so that she could no longer receive any messages from Xiao An. A more permanent way would be to make that person disappear completely.
Xiao An's fate depends on his decision, so Shen Xingchuan finally decides to see what Yao Yingxia's attitude is first.
He opened the monitoring software on his phone and realized that his fingers were colder than usual, but he was soon overwhelmed by the huge sense of happiness.
Shen Xingchuan saw her reply and said, "There are some things I need to think clearly. Let's calm down for a while."
Later, Xiao An sent several more messages asking for the reason, but Yao Yingxia never replied.
It turned out that the gods had finally responded to his humble yet persistent prayers.
His heart ached again, this time because years of hopeless pursuit had finally paid off, even if the other party had just stopped and looked back at him.

On the day of her graduation thesis defense, Yao Yingxia went out to celebrate with her roommates and went to a barbecue restaurant.
In addition to her successful postgraduate entrance examination, her three roommates, one was admitted to graduate school, one went abroad to study, and one received an offer from a large company. It seems that everyone has a bright future.
A few people ordered some wine and chatted while eating. From today until the graduation ceremony at the end of June, they had a month-long vacation. Except for the roommate who got the offer and had to start the internship early, the other two were planning a trip and enthusiastically invited Yao Yingxia to join them.
After all, holidays are rare, and everyone will be scattered all over the world, so it will be difficult to get together again.
Yao Yingxia was actually very excited. She had never left City A since she was a child. She had originally planned a high school graduation trip with her mother, but that incident hadn't happened. She thought she would have a chance to make up for this regret, but Xu Nian was admitted to the hospital again, and she lost the chance to travel with her mother forever.
More importantly, this was a rare opportunity, and she could use the bodyguards around her to let Shen Xingchuan know that she was looking forward to a graduation trip.
Yao Yingxia looked a little lonely, and she deliberately ignored the vibrating phone in her pocket. When her roommate asked for her opinion, she said awkwardly, "I need to ask my family for advice."
The roommates made some good-natured cheers and expressed their understanding. After all, the freedom that married people have has always been relative.
However, no one thought Yao Yingxia's husband would raise any objections. After all, she was an adult in her twenties, not a child who could easily get lost. Several people began to discuss the travel route enthusiastically again.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening, the scheduled call time for him and Yao Yingxia. Shen Xingchuan called twice but no one answered. He then contacted her bodyguard: "What is she doing?"
The bodyguard quickly replied, "Ms. Yao went out for dinner with her roommates and was discussing matters related to her graduation trip." She then relayed exactly what she had just heard.
The sentence "I need to ask someone at home" really pleased him, and the clouds of working overtime for days seemed to be swept away.
While Shen Xingchuan was in a good mood, he also felt sorry for his wife. When he was her age, he had already visited dozens of countries, but Yao Yingxia had hardly even seen the beautiful mountains and rivers of her motherland.
It turns out that loving someone really makes you feel indebted and unable to bear it.
After the dinner, Yao Yingxia saw a text message on her phone indicating that she had received a seven-digit transfer.
When she returned to the dormitory, she went to the balcony and called Shen Xingchuan: "Why did you suddenly transfer so much money to me?"
The other party smiled and said, "Holidays are rare, go out and have fun with your classmates."
From what he said, it seemed that he wasn't planning to go with her. Yao Yingxia didn't expect things to be so simple. Trying to suppress her excitement, she asked, "You're not coming with me?"
“I won’t participate in activities for young people.”
Yao Yingxia was surprised that he was so easy to talk to, and it also gave her more confidence in her escape plan. If Shen Xingchuan was not there, the success rate would be greatly improved.
But then he listed the additional terms: "Xia Xia, to ensure your safety, you need to bring bodyguards with you when you leave, and you can only arrange domestic itineraries."
The frustration after the plan failed left her speechless for a moment. Her roommate's alternative plan just now also included several neighboring countries. Yao Yingxia showed a hint of longing at the right time. After all, Shen Xingchuan would always find ways to meet all her not-too-excessive requests.
The silence lasted for a while. Yao Yingxia knew that she had to respond as soon as possible. If she waited any longer, Shen Xingchuan would start to doubt her motives.
Yao Yingxia pursed her lips: "Thank you, I will be careful."
The disappointment in her voice almost overflowed, but in the end she didn't say anything else. Shen Xingchuan actually hoped that she could be a little more willful, but judging by the current progress between the two of them, it would probably take a long time.
Shen Xingchuan looked at the brief plan he had just scribbled down and asked, "After this trip with your roommates, do you want to travel around the world with me?"
There was a pause before a rare cheerful voice came from the other side: "Yes!" After getting her diploma, she still had two months of vacation. Yao Yingxia didn't even consider whether her tutor would let her report in advance. Anyway, she had no intention of continuing this course.
Shen Xingchuan couldn't help but smile. Yao Yingxia really looked like a child full of anticipation on the eve of a spring outing.
In order to fulfill her wish, Shen Xingchuan would have to maintain a high-intensity work schedule for the next period of time to arrange all subsequent matters. He would also personally complete a detailed travel plan, wanting to take her to revisit every scenic spot he thought was worth visiting.
Five days later, Yao Yingxia and her roommates boarded a flight to the northwest inland. They planned to stay for a week, then head southeast, and finally return to S City after a circle.
The first half of the trip was novel and enjoyable, until Yao Yingxia received the travel plan from Shen Xingchuan. It included seven countries, a detailed itinerary, and even some must-see local restaurants.
Yao Yingxia took some photos with her spare phone and sent them to Shen Qingyuan. The entire trip would last from early July to the end of August, and now it was mid-June, leaving them with little time to prepare.
After receiving it, Shen Qingyuan shared the itinerary with Nie Yuan. The two of them had a phone call and discussed the best location and the feasibility of the implementation plan.
Unfortunately, Shen Xingchuan chose countries that are highly developed, have good public security, and have very strict immigration and exit management. If he wants to take Yao Yingxia away without anyone noticing, he will face various difficulties in implementing it.
In the end, they selected three places where it was relatively easy to start their business. At least on the local black market, they could easily buy a missing person's visa and passport.
Nie Yuan planned to fly over first to conduct a personal inspection and formulate a final plan. At the same time, he would make alternative plans for possible accidents. If it really didn't work out, he could also sneak into other countries.
Of course, they did not reveal the specific plan to Yao Yingxia in advance to prevent her from being overly nervous and losing her composure. After all, Shen Xingchuan was not someone who could be easily fooled.
But because the future was so uncertain, Yao Yingxia grew increasingly uneasy as time went on. She knew full well that she only had this one chance, and if anything went wrong, the consequences would be disastrous.
As the trip was coming to an end, Yao Yingxia's anxiety reached its peak. She could only sleep for three or four hours for several days in a row, and every night she had all kinds of bizarre and overly realistic nightmares.
Her dreams were all about her failing to escape and being caught by Shen Xingchuan.
On the first night, the man blinded her eyes and left her to wander around the empty room, bumping into the walls. Yao Yingxia cried in despair, but could not see a ray of light. The man gently stroked her face with his large hands and said affectionately, "Good girl, from now on I will be your eyes."
On the second night, the man chained her wrists and ankles, forcing Yao Yingxia to stretch out and lie on the soft bed like a sacrifice. His cold fingers traced her bare skin, and he chuckled softly, saying, "How pitiful! Xia Xia will be my puppy from now on."
On the third night, the man brought a syringe filled with red liquid and, despite her cries and pleas, ruthlessly plunged it into her soft, white thigh. Soon, her legs gave way and she lost all feeling. He gently bent down and kissed her lips, her tears still falling, and said with regret, "Baby, you'll be confined to a wheelchair for the rest of your life."
Whenever she woke up from a nightmare, Yao Yingxia would check her body in panic. Even if she found that everything she had just experienced was just a nightmare, she would still tremble and keep her eyes wide open until dawn.
Those nightmares were so real and immersive that Yao Yingxia couldn't help but wonder whether there really was a parallel universe in this world. In another time and space, there was a "Yao Yingxia" experiencing everything she had just dreamed of.
