Chapter 380 Sense of Belonging
Nie Yao was momentarily breathless because of him. She could only desperately push his body away and reminded him casually: "This is in the restaurant, Li Jinxing... Don't do anything rash... There are other people..."
Li Jinxing finally let her go, but his gaze was still burning. He stroked her burning cheek and said with a low smile, "Where is there anyone else?"
Nie Yao quickly poked her head out of his arms and looked around, only to find that the maid and housekeeper who had been waiting in the restaurant were nowhere to be seen.
"Even if there is no one here, we can't stay here..." Nie Yao tried to break away from his arms, but could only make up an excuse.
Li Jinxing didn't wait for her to finish, he lifted her up into the air and said with a low laugh: "Let's go back to the room. You owed me last night, and you should make it up to me today!"
Nie Yao was so upset that she wanted to cry. So this is still the norm?
According to his way, he treated her like an after-meal dessert, savoring her again and again until she collapsed from exhaustion, and then he let her go...
He carried her to the bathroom to take a hot bath, and then she returned to the warm and soft big bed. Nie Yao was too lazy to move.
Li Jinxing lowered his head and kissed her forehead, saying softly, "Forget about the unhappy things that happened during the day. Go to bed early. When you wake up tomorrow, all those troubles will be gone..."
Nie Yao responded softly, and then she realized that he was deliberately pestering her to make up for it, or to make her forget those troubles temporarily, and her heart couldn't help but warm.
Seeing him get up and go back to the bathroom, Nie Yao grabbed his arm.
"What's wrong?" Li Jinxing thought she was busy, so he lowered his head and approached her, asking with concern.
"Li Jinxing, good night..." Nie Yao raised her head with a smile, kissed his forehead, and said, "Also, thank you..."
Ever since she was found by the Nie family, she has never had a true sense of belonging, whether it is the Nie family or this city...
But with Li Jinxing, she felt safe and a sense of belonging!
If it weren't for Li Jinxing, she would have wanted to escape from the wealthy family struggle that made her feel suffocated!
"Little fool, you're welcome—" Li Jinxing didn't expect her to thank him. He was stunned for a moment, then he understood something. He smiled softly, shook his head, stroked her hair, and said softly, "Good night—"
His Yaoyao probably didn't know that good night also had another meaning, which was "I love you"...
********
Because she was so tired, Nie Yao slept until almost noon.
When she woke up, Li Jinxing was no longer by her side. Instead, there was a rose on the bedside table with a small card underneath that said, "I'm going to the company. Have a good rest and don't think about those troubles!"
Nie Yao looked at the card and couldn't help but smile and shook her head. She picked up the rose and took a look at it. Although there was no fragrance, this red rose was enough to make her happy!
Even though her waist still ached a little, she didn't intend to blame him this time, because she knew that Li Jinxing did it on purpose because he didn't want her to think about the troubles of the Nie family anymore!
Nie Yao put down the rose, got up from the bed, washed up, changed into casual clothes, then picked up her phone and went downstairs.
Seeing that the butler had been waiting downstairs, Nie Yao felt a little embarrassed. She didn't know if the old butler had seen Li Jinxing carrying her upstairs last night!
And she got up so late today...
"Miss Nie, you're awake. What would you like to eat?" The housekeeper remained calm, as if he had expected her to get up late, and asked respectfully.
