Chapter 149 End of the Text
"hiss--"
There was a long hissing sound.
Yu Nian was startled for a moment before she realized that he had torn the bottom of her suspender skirt to shreds. She was immediately furious and wanted to bite him to death, "You tore my clothes again."
"It's broken, so it is broken," he said in a voice so low and hoarse that it was unclear, "I'll compensate you with a new one."
After discussing the compensation agreement, Ji Yanxing directly picked her up.
Her dressing room was not big, but it was covered with carpet. He held her in front of the fitting room. He stood behind her. She knelt on the carpet, looking at the overlapping figures in the fitting room mirror.
He was still neatly dressed, his white shirt was so neat and tidy that there wasn't a single wrinkle. If he were to take time off to attend a video conference at this moment, no one would be able to find any fault with him.
In comparison, she looked too disheveled. The straps of her black suspender dress were draped over her arms, half-falling off. Her skin was as smooth as tofu and could not hold the straps at all.
She was dissatisfied and asked him to kneel while she stood.
Ji Yanxing responded to her and knelt down on one knee.
She looked down at him, like a proud queen, and he was a subject completely submissive to her.
The warm big palm wrapped around her feet.
Yu Nian's body shook violently and he subconsciously tried to pull back his foot.
But it was already in Ji Yanxing's hand, so how could he pull it out easily?
…
The midsummer nights are already hot and humid, and the temperature indoors is even hotter.
By the time she was done, her meal was already cold.
Ji Yanxing held her in his arms and walked to the dining table. He looked at the combination of steak, rose and red wine, and chuckled with a slightly hoarse voice, "Did you buy too few candles?"
All we need for a candlelight dinner is a few candles.
"..." Yu Nian bit his shoulder in dissatisfaction, "It's all your fault. The steak is cold."
Although she was not very good at cooking, frying steak was harder than she thought and the edges were burnt.
"Um....."
Because of her bite, both of them made sounds in unbearable pain.
Yu Nian groaned and cursed him angrily: "Get out."
Ji Yanxing glanced down and said calmly, "Don't go out. It's comfortable inside."
As he spoke, he reached out from behind her and cut a small piece of steak with a knife and fork. Although it was cold, it tasted okay.
He commented: "Not bad."
Yu Nian's expression eased, and he ordered him confidently, "Cut me a piece of steak."
Ji Yanxing cut another piece and fed it into her mouth.
Yu Nian chewed it slowly and found it indeed quite good.
He suddenly leaned forward and whispered in her ear, "Is it delicious?"
“…”
Bastard. He didn't even let her eat properly.
Yu Nian bit her lip, unwilling to answer him. Ji Yanxing made a louder and louder sound, "Baby, is it delicious?"
The two toes hanging beside the dining chair curled up, Yu Nian's fingers clenched his clothes, and she couldn't even finish her words. She lowered her eyes and looked at him, her long hair hanging down, the corners of her eyes were red, she wanted to cry but couldn't, she looked so pitiful.
"Ji Yanxing....Don't bully me..."
"Really? But I think you like me doing this to you."
"Bastard!" She cursed him in a low voice, her body trembling.
The bastard Ji did not hide his malice and kissed her forehead tenderly, "Baby, I like this Chinese Valentine's Day gift very much."
In the dark restaurant, the light was dim and the air was moist.
In the midsummer of August, the temperature inside the air-conditioned room seemed to be higher than that outside.
-
After the night of Chinese Valentine's Day, Ji Yanxing entered Yu Nian's house. The two lived in Yu Nian's small apartment and started living together.
Both of them were still busy with work and had to go to work during the day. Aunt Liu would prepare meals in the evening, and Ji Yanxing would occasionally cook himself. On the day when he cooked, Yu Nian would order as many dishes as she wanted in different ways, and then sit on the marble table, swinging her legs while watching him cook.
He cooked slowly and leisurely, washing, cutting and cooking vegetables, his movements were neither hurried nor slow, but instead had the leisurely and relaxed demeanor of a five-star chef. Yu Nian rolled her hair with her fingers, thinking that he was indeed very homely, and even if he didn't have the status of the boss of the Ji family, he was still a pretty good husband.
He obeyed her in all the trivial matters in life, but he was still strong at heart. She deliberately tormented him during the day, and he would retaliate at night, finding ways to make her cry for mercy.
This kind of life like a couple in the honeymoon period continued, and before long it was Ji Yanxing's birthday.
Yu Nian sat in the study, looking at the silver watch on the table. This was the birthday gift she bought him last year. She had carefully selected it. He would definitely look very gentlemanly when he wore it.
But what happened later made her gradually disappointed in him. They quarreled and had a cold war for a long time. During that time, she thought that she would never love him again in her life.
There were many entanglements between them, which could not be described by simple love and hate. She had loved him and hated him, and had been entangled and conflicted. In the end, she chose to succumb to the warmth of reality. The soft thorns in her heart were pulled out one by one by him. It was unrealistic to say that there was no trace at all. It was just covered by new sweetness, and the traces were getting fainter and fainter.
In the quiet study, Yu Nian asked herself, does she still love him now?
It should still be love.
During the time when he "let her go", she tried hard to forget him and start a new life, but she had no interest in anyone and couldn't even muster the desire to meet them for the first time.
Over the long years, she loved him out of habit, and her heart would beat for him reflexively. During that time, she forced herself to sink her past love and hatred deep in her heart, and forced herself to build a defense wall for her heart.
He first forcefully asked her to open a small door for him, and then used a gentle and considerate offensive to tear down her walls.
On Ji Yanxing's birthday, he went on a business trip to discuss something with a very important official. He promised her that he would be back before dinner. So Yu Nian was alone at home, slowly making the cake.
She was not good at cooking, but she had practiced baking. With the help of Aunt Liu, Yu Nian made a six-inch small cake and put it in the refrigerator, ready to give him a surprise when he came back.
As she expected, when Ji Yanxing saw the small cake, his eyes were filled with tenderness and warmth. He smiled at her and asked, "Did you make this?"
The cake was small but very delicate and beautiful. It was creamy white all over with pink and white rose petals on the surface. There was no more complicated design, only "Happy Birthday" written on it.
"Yes," Yu Nian held up his chin, "Isn't it beautiful?"
Ji Yanxing laughed softly and praised her, "It's beautiful, Nian Nian is great."
Yu Nian: "..."
It was inexplicable. During the meal, Yu Nian only needed to look up to find Ji Yanxing looking at her, his eyes fixed on her, his gaze was focused, straight, and made Yu Nian feel a little unnatural.
After dinner, Yu Nian couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Why did he look at her with such affectionate eyes throughout the entire meal?
Ji Yanxing's eyes moved, "It's okay."
Yu Nian stared at him for a few seconds and didn't ask any further questions: "Then blow out the candles and make a wish."
As she spoke, she lit the candles, then stood up to turn off all the lights in the restaurant. She looked across at Ji Yanxing with curved eyes and said, "Make a wish."
