Chapter 50 Past Events Gone with the Wind
Xu Qingmin, who had just taken a shower, was not as refined and dignified as usual, and his wet hair made him look a bit wild.
A sea breeze made Xu Qingmin look a little disheveled.
Ultimately, you don't want to owe me anything.
"Maybe so, but more than that, I don't want my image in your eyes to gradually become tarnished. If I owe you something, I will never be able to stand up straight in front of you, and I will have no dignity in front of your mother. I will lose myself more and more, and the Song Yilin at that time will not be the Song Yilin you like."
Xu Qingmin poured himself a glass of wine, drank it all in one gulp, and the glass fell straight downstairs, shattering an expensive crystal goblet into pieces.
Slightly tipsy, Song Yilin looked at Xu with hazy eyes and said, "I knew that would be the reaction if I told you, so I didn't want to tell you."
Xu Qingmin's Adam's apple bobbed, his eyes filled with an urgent need to know: "So when you married Bai Ye, the person you loved was me?"
Song Yilin nodded. She didn't deny that she had never been able to accept Bai Ye during their long marriage, but with such a charming gentleman like Bai Ye, and having spent so much time together, it was hard for her not to fall in love with him.
Xu Qingmin gave a forced smile: "This result is much better than the original one. At least back then I thought you were the one who cheated on me, and I didn't think it was because of my roughness that night that you wanted to run away."
Song Yilin observed Xu Qingmin's expression and, to be honest, concluded that Xu Qingmin should be able to accept it.
"Actually, the reason I broke up with you that day was because I couldn't accept your rudeness. But when I was on the verge of death at the fire scene, I changed my mind, but it was too late."
Xu Qingmin looked embarrassed for a moment.
I also felt sorry for Song Yilin, who went through a life-or-death experience during that time.
The two stared silently at the dark, boundless sea for a long time.
Xu Qingmin's voice seemed to come from the sea: "I'm sorry."
"It's been so many years, I've long forgotten."
Song Yilin's words, "I forgot," left Xu Qingmin feeling suffocated. Song Yilin had forgotten so easily, while he had been recalling it for 13 years.
But it's also quite fair. He was young and naive back then and didn't know how to respect his partner in matters of the bedroom. Song Yilin was abused like that because she was inexperienced. It's better to forget about it.
There's no question of who owes whom, so now that things have been discussed openly, let's just let bygones be bygones.
Let bygones be bygones; what's past is past. The most important thing is the future.
Xu Qingmin took a new glass, finished the rest of his wine, and said to Song Yilin, "It's so hot in this tropical weather, even though it's winter. Let's go back to sleep, there are mosquitoes everywhere."
Back in his room, Xu Qingmin drew all the curtains and turned the lights to a warm tone.
Song Yilin observed Xu Qingmin's series of actions and wondered if this was a pre-coital ritual between a man and a woman.
Just as Song Yilin was about to take off her pajamas, Xu Qingmin grabbed her hand: "No need to take them off, the air conditioning is on full blast, go to sleep."
Then he cuddled Song Yilin and went to sleep.
Song Yilin looked surprised.
Are they taking a nap?
When she was dating Xu Qingmin, Xu Qingmin tried every means to create opportunities for her.
These past few days, Xu Qingmin has seemed to have designs on her, and he even said he'd been waiting for too long. What's going on now?
They're all adults now, but suddenly they've become so innocent again.
Xu Qingmin seemed to know what Song Yilin was thinking and murmured in her ear, "You don't need to be surprised that I only slept with you. You just told me about how I hurt you 13 years ago. No matter how much of a beast I am, I can't have a relationship with you without any reservations."
Knowing what happened to Song Yilin back then, Xu Qingmin is now even more afraid that Song Yilin just wants to use a one-night stand to repay the debt of helping her find the old lady. If Song Yilin sever ties with him again, then he will have no chance at all.
He knew better than anyone how difficult it was to win Song Yilin's heart.
Song Yilin is someone who's determined to go all the way; if she doesn't want to get married, it's very difficult to persuade her to.
At least there's some other connection between them that allows them to be together without restraint.
When Song Yilin woke up, she saw Xu Qingmin's piercing eyes staring straight at her.
Why are you looking at me like that?
"It's been many years since I've seen you sleep, but you still seem the same."
He had waited 13 years to have this ordinary morning again.
Song Yilin remembered, but Xu Qingmin pressed her back onto the bed.
He rose and covered her, his burning eyes filled with lust.
Song Yilin parted her thin lips slightly: "Xu..."
Before she could even speak, Xu Qingmin swallowed her whole with a kiss.
Song Yilin has been trying to hide!
Xu Qingmin used his hands to hold her head still and frantically took from her body.
Just as Song Yilin felt Xu Qingmin's desire was about to reach its peak, Xu Qingmin stopped again.
Song Yilin looked at Xu Qingmin with surprise.
Xu Qingmin simply patted Song Yilin's head: "It's not the right time yet."
Song Yilin touched her flushed face. Now isn't the right time? When? On their wedding night?
Song Yilin suddenly woke up.
Could Xu Qingmin be thinking something like that?
Xu Qingmin could tell she wanted it, so he deliberately flirted with her every day until she couldn't take it anymore and decided to get married.
If that's the case, then it'll be a matter of who can out-flirt with whom.
Different images and scenarios formed in Song Yilin's mind, while Xu Qingmin had already gotten up and started getting dressed.
"Yilin, get up, we're going back to Jianghai City."
Song Yilin reluctantly got out of bed, quickly tidied herself up, and then followed Xu Qingmin out the door.
Song Yilin was in a good mood living in such a villa, but Xu Qingmin's deliberate flirting made her inexplicably angry.
When they arrived at the service area, Xu leaned back in the driver's seat and pretended to doze off. Song Yilin thought about what happened that morning, and the anger in her heart flared up again.
Song Yilin's hand deliberately wandered restlessly over Xu Qingmin's thigh.
Suddenly, Song Yilin's hand was grabbed by Xu Qingmin.
He looked up and met Xu's scarlet face.
"Song Yilin, what are you trying to do?"
Song Yilin pretended not to know anything and said, "I see you're tired, so I'm going to wake you up. I'll drive for the rest of the way."
Xu Qingmin took Song Yilin's hand and kissed it, the tingling sensation spreading from his fingers throughout his body.
Song Yilin quickly withdrew her hand and got out of the car.
Xu Qingmin got out of the car and kissed Song Yilin before getting into the passenger seat.
After getting on the highway, Xu Qingmin was already drowsy.
"Xu Qingmin, you look so tired. Didn't you sleep well last night?"
"It's not that I didn't sleep well, it's that I didn't sleep much?"
Did my restless sleeping disturb you?
"It has nothing to do with how you sleep. I just wanted to see you. Before I knew it, it was already very late."
This morning, Xu Qingmin was the first to wake up.
So Xu Qingmin barely slept.
"You can watch it anytime you want in the future. You don't need to deliberately watch it all in one night. Besides, I'm not good-looking."
A relaxed laugh came from beside them: "If you're not good-looking, then there's no one good-looking in this world."
She has always been praised for her beauty and liked by others since she was a child.
When Xu Qingmin suddenly praised her, Song Yilin felt incredibly happy. No matter how many times others praised her, it wouldn't make her as happy as Xu Qingmin's sudden compliment.
After arriving in Jianghai City, Song Yilin let her family know she was safe and went straight to her company.
As soon as Wang Qianqian arrived at the office, she came in with a gossipy look on her face.
He said nervously, "You went to Jianghai City with President Xu? President Xu looks so haggard. You really tormented him yesterday."
