Chapter 72 Chapter 72 The softness of her chest rubbed against his hard back...
The little princess' birthday party was specially planned. Rich people's money is the easiest to earn. A dedicated studio will tailor any need. If you dream, the world will create your dream.
After the banquet, Jiang Wangyue invited many of her close friends to the birthday party. They were all children of the same age, the oldest was only 12 years old, and the youngest was only 6 years old.
Jiang Wangyue loves the sea, so Yuhu Villa is decorated like an ocean from the second to the eighth floor, with shells on the walls and seaweed in the corners. A dozen staff members in cosplay costumes were hidden in the dim light to provide guidance. The birthday girl and the guests changed into dark blue clothes, carried fairy wands and small wings, and had an immersive experience throughout the whole process.
All the children were led to the second floor. From the second to the eighth floor, each small room was specially decorated, with fluorescent pearls hidden in countless corners.
Each participating child is given a small bag to tie around their body. They have two hours to search for pearls on the second to eighth floors, placing each one they find in their bag. At the end of the two hours, the winner will be determined based on the number of pearls in their bag.
This competition made all the children very excited. They quickly changed their clothes and followed the staff upstairs.
"Which other kids want to participate?"
Jiang Chongyan sat there motionless, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
——"I'll do it, I'll do it!"
Xin Tong raised her hand excitedly, lifted her skirt and ran over.
"Uh..." The staff member looked embarrassed, "You, you..."
"Why?" Xin Tong was unhappy, "Can't adults play?"
"The levels are designed for children. It might be unfair for adults to participate..."
Xin Tong patted her shoulder comfortingly.
"Don't worry, my IQ is about the same as these kids."
After using threats and inducements to get the small bag of pearls, Xin Tong contentedly threw her cell phone into it and went up the stairs carrying the bag.
Everything was ready. She turned around and saw Jiang Chongyan sitting relaxedly with his legs crossed in the lower part of the banquet hall on the first floor. His gaze fell on her from afar.
The two men met eyes, and Xin Tong shook the bag in her hand at him, smiling proudly.
Jiang Chongyan shook his head slightly and sneered.
What expression.
Look at her winning a championship and showing it to this kid.
Xin Tong turned around with high morale and went upstairs.
*
The second floor and the first floor are almost two different worlds.
The moment I walked up to the second floor, the light dimmed instantly. The sounds coming from the banquet hall on the first floor became hazy, as if covered by a layer of cover, floating slowly in the sky.
Small invisible speakers were installed in the walls and corners of the second floor, filling my ears with fairytale tunes. The seaweed at my feet swayed back and forth in the breeze. Looking up, I saw a bubble machine to my left, slowly spewing out a giant, transparent bubble that floated slowly upwards until finally popped by Xin Tong's index finger.
She was the last contestant to go up to the second floor.
The group of children in front had already scattered and went to different floors and rooms.
Xin Tong held the bag tightly in her hand and began to search carefully one place at a time.
But the further she went in, the dimmer the light became. She went to the third floor, which was filled with small rooms. From time to time, she could hear the sounds of children laughing and playing in the distance. The children were surprisingly brave, and she began to feel a little uneasy.
Xin Tong gritted his teeth and continued searching inside, leaving no corner untouched.
Half an hour has passed.
She found only three.
Three tiny fluorescent pearls emitted a faint cold light in the bag.
...What a pitiful number.
Xin Tong was not discouraged. She was about to complete the search on the third floor. When she walked into the last small room, she found a handful of pearls in the piano stool. At a glance, she estimated that there were more than twenty pearls.
She was overjoyed and was about to reach out to take it, but suddenly a little boy jumped out, lay down beside her, and also reached out his hand towards the piano bench.
Xin Tong reminded him.
"mine."
The little boy yelled, "Mine!"
"I discovered it first."
"I discovered it first!"
"I was there first!"
"I was there first!"
Xin Tong was upset and was about to teach the kid a lesson, but she didn't expect that the next second the little boy grabbed the pearls from the piano bench while she wasn't paying attention, turned around and ran out.
Xin Tong hurried to chase after him.
The light was dim, and he suddenly stopped when he reached the front. There was a very high staircase below.
He turned around and suddenly rushed towards Xin Tong, knocking her down. Xin Tong fell to the ground with the force of the collision. It was pitch black and she couldn't see anything. Her left ankle twisted and scraped against the hard floor, causing her to feel excruciating pain. She broke into a cold sweat and dropped the bag in her hand.
However, the little boy not only refused to help, but also snatched Xin Tong's bag!
"Hello!"
Xin Tong screamed and immediately grabbed his clothes.
He ran forward, and Xin Tong couldn't stand up, so he lay on the ground, pulling at his clothes and being dragged behind him. Xin Tong pulled hard, and he fell to the ground.
The two men wrestled with each other, completely disgraceful. The little boy was so furious, like a bull out of control, that he tore several small holes into Xin Tong's skirt.
The light around was dim and he couldn't see anything clearly. Xin Tong beat him so hard that he screamed, but he still held Xin Tong's bag tightly in his hand and refused to let go.
His left ankle was still in severe pain. Xin Tong gritted her teeth and endured it, punching the little boy, making him cry loudly. She spotted the bag and immediately snatched it back.
But before she could even struggle to stand up, the little boy suddenly started kicking Xin Tong's ankle. She frowned and screamed in pain, and the next second the little boy snatched the bag away and quickly turned and ran away.
Xin Tong sat there alone.
Her ankle was sprained, her skirt was torn, her hair was disheveled, her bag was stolen, and her pearls were gone.
She was furious.
When I find him, I will make sure to let him know how powerful she is!
Her ankle was aching, and she tried to stand up by holding on to the ground, but failed after several attempts.
It was dark and dead silent all around, and she was the only one there. In the distance, she could hear the sounds of a few children running and playing on the upper floors. Time was running out, and she was getting anxious. She grabbed the railing on one side with both hands, and just as she stood up shakily, she accidentally lost her balance and fell down the high steps screaming.
——As a result, he fell into a familiar broad embrace and was caught steadily.
Xin Tong suddenly relaxed.
Without saying a word, a feeling of grievance suddenly welled up in him. He hugged the man's neck, buried his face in his suit, and said aggrievedly:
"I sprained my ankle and it hurts like hell. And some damn kid stole my bag. I can't win."
"How many are in the bag?"
"...three." Her voice suddenly became softer.
"Then just be at ease. You can't win even if you don't get robbed."
——"Jiang Chongyan!"
She was angry and hit his shoulder. This man was stiff all over. She was carried by the man for a few steps in the dim light, and finally she was placed on a soft sofa and sank into it.
I lowered my head, wanting to ask how you knew I was here. Before I could ask, I heard two "woofs" from the side, and then a furry dog's head squeezed in between my legs, panting and licking my injured ankle.
“…”
Xin Tong pursed her lips and resisted the urge to cry.
“That’s amazing.”
She sniffed muffledly, her voice hoarse, and praised it while petting it, "Cola is really the best puppy in the world. It can be a police dog."
A faint snort sounded above my head.
"Can this size be used as a police dog?"
"You're so doting."
The cell phone flashlight was turned on and thrown onto the sofa next to Xin Tong. The beam shone upwards, instantly illuminating a large area.
Although the lighting on the second to eighth floors was dimmed, it was still adjusted to a level where you could see clearly for safety reasons. And among the entire second to eighth floors, this was the darkest place.
It was precisely because it was dark here that children who passed by here would avoid this area, so the more than 20 pearls in the piano bench remained until now.
Xin Tong felt sad when she thought about the handful of pearls she had found with great effort and the bag that had been stolen from her.
He was speechless and depressed, and after a few seconds he felt the sofa beside him sink.
She came back to her senses and saw Jiang Chongyan sitting next to her with his brows lowered, under the cold white light illuminated by the mobile phone flashlight.
I was pulled and turned in a different direction, my left ankle was grasped by his broad hand, and the warmth was transmitted where the skin touched.
His fingers were swift and he untied her high heels with great skill.
The shoes were thrown to the ground with a crisp sound.
"So skilled." Xin Tong supported herself on the sofa with her hands, her legs pulled into his arms, and she glanced at him out of the corner of her eye.
The eldest young master's whole body suddenly froze for a moment.
As if these words brought back some memories, he raised his eyes slightly and glanced at her.
skilled.
Well, it was the first time in my life that I took off a woman’s high heels. I knelt on one knee and was stepped on by this woman until I was erect.
It is indeed difficult to forget this experience.
Jiang Chongyan thought expressionlessly.
The two looked at each other, and Xin Tong inexplicably saw an inexplicable complex emotion in his indifferent and silent eyes.
A bit of resentment, a bit of speechlessness, a bit of shame and anger... Anyway, it's not a good emotion.
Xin Tong was very familiar with this kind of resentful look from her husband. After all, Jiang Chongyan had looked at her with this look many times.
He was very skilled in taking off his high heels. Could it be related to her?
How did I offend him without knowing it?
...Xin Tong frowned as he recalled, his mind going blank.
But then I thought it through. How many times have I offended him?
You'll get used to it after a while.
Xin Tong turned her eyes away indifferently, but her ankle was pressed and she screamed in pain.
"If you can still scream, it means it's nothing serious."
Jiang Chongyan lowered his head and spoke in a cold tone.
He dances all year long, so injuries are commonplace. He's well-versed in how to treat injuries to various parts of the body. He checked and found nothing serious. He suggested applying ice and pressure, and elevating the foot if possible. However, he didn't have those options right now, so after a quick inspection, he helped Xin Tong put her shoes back on.
"Be careful not to use this foot again. Go see a doctor when you get home."
Xin Tong looked listless, not knowing whether he had heard it or not.
It was quiet and no one was talking.
Jiang Chongyan saw the dejected head of the person in front of him in the cold white beam of his mobile phone flashlight.
His hands were placed on his knees, looking unhappy, his fingers poking and tangling together.
Jiang Chongyan stared at her round head for a while.
It's impossible to hide the truth. Anyone with a discerning eye can see the resentment.
Suddenly, the man snapped his fingers at Coke, who was lying on the ground. Coke got up, turned around twice, and then ran back the way he had come.
The man stood up and half-knelt in front of her, his back facing her.
"Come up."
Xin Tong raised his head suddenly.
"what."
The tall man knelt on one knee in front of her and tilted his head to look at her. The surrounding light was dim, and the flashlight on his cell phone shone a bright, emotionless, pure white beam straight upward, its cold light hitting his tall nose.
He looked back at her, his elbows casually resting on his knees, his long legs folded, his trousers rolled up, revealing a slender part of his ankle.
——"If you want to win, come up here."
…
The eldest young master had no expression on his face and walked forward with Xin Tong on his back.
She was wearing a dress, and the soft part of her chest rubbed firmly against his broad and hard back.
He suddenly paused and stopped.
This was the second time he carried her on his back. The first time was at Asahidake Daisetsuzan, but that time they were both wearing thick ski suits, fully armed, and there was no skin contact the entire time.
But this time.
At a social gathering under the spotlight, in suits and dresses, thin clothes, two bodies pressed tightly together, one could almost completely feel every detail of shape and touch.
Jiang Chongyan stopped and didn't move for a long time.
At this time, Xin Tong leaned close to his ear with a bit of doubt and whispered his name.
"Jiang Chongyan."
"Where are we going?"
The man's Adam's apple rolled for a moment. He came to his senses and, as if covering his mouth, answered after a long while.
"Go somewhere where you can win."
He continued walking forward, his wrist strong and steady. Xin Tong noticed something, and withdrew the hand that had been hooked around his neck and touched his ear.
"Why are your ears red?"
The man beneath her stiffened. He took a deep breath, gritting his teeth.
"You're mistaken."
"Alright." After spending so much time with the young master, she pretty much knew what a tsundere person was like. Even with the truth right before his eyes, he wouldn't admit it. Xin Tong was used to it and withdrew her hand.
He was too tall, with a large frame, sharp shoulders, and a broad back. His steps were steady, his arms strong and steady, and his whole body was warm, and his nose was filled with his pleasant fragrance.
She wrinkled her nose, feeling sleepy. She hugged his neck with her hands, and her fingers involuntarily stroked the brim of his cowboy hat, then hooked down to wrap around the golden hair on the side of his face, and unconsciously played with it in her hands.
I don’t know how long I walked, but suddenly a cold wind blew towards me. Xin Tong got goose bumps all over her body. She was instantly awakened by the cold and hugged the man’s neck and looked forward.
Here is the corridor on the second floor.
Going down is the courtyard on the first floor of the manor.
"The place we need to go is outside Yuhu Villa. But the competition hasn't ended yet. If we walk from the second floor to the non-competition area on the first floor, we will be discovered immediately."
"So, you can't go out from the first floor. You have to find another way out from the second floor."
Jiang Chongyan put her down, held the corridor railing with both hands, exerted force with his hands, and the muscles in his arms exerted and disappeared in an instant. He climbed up lightly and disappeared from Xin Tong's sight in an instant.
“Oh my god!”
Xin Tong was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she quickly leaned over the guardrail to look down.
The man landed on the ground, slowly straightened up, stood intact in the yard on the first floor, and raised his head.
The hat's brim was wide and twisted, casting a shadow that obscured his brow and eyes. Where the brim couldn't reach, the moonlight fell on his full lips.
He stared at himself, his dark, translucent eyes clearer than the moonlight, and there were three small black moles on the sides of his face.
Then, he smiled lightly and stretched out his hand to her in a somewhat ostentatious manner.
"Come."
The two of them stared at each other under the moonlight. The moon was cold, the stars sparse, and the friction between their skin and the marble pillars made a harsh sound. Above them, European-style murals covered various angels. He wore a slim-fitting suit, she a haute couture gown. They resembled a princess and prince in a Western story, fleeing into the night to avoid a family marriage.
The evening breeze blows, and the red skirt flutters.
She lifted up her skirt, climbed onto the railing, and jumped down without hesitation.
