Chapter 59 No matter how high the chasm is built, the body is indeed...
As the car started, Lin Zaoyi kept her face turned towards the window until she deviated from her route to Green County.
She turned her head and asked, "Where are you taking me?"
"go home."
“You’ve gone the wrong way. Green County Prefecture isn’t on this road.”
This time, he added one more word: "Go back to my home."
"...Why did you bring me to your house for no reason?"
As they were talking, the car had already turned into the apartment building. Tan Zhaojing said, "There's something I need your help with."
"What kind of help?"
You'll find out soon enough.
Lin Zaoyi: "..."
Mysterious.
The elevator stopped on the 26th floor, a large apartment building with one unit per floor.
The man stretched out his arm. "Give me your hand."
She blinked, confused. "What?"
"Take fingerprints."
"...don't want."
Tan Zhaojing didn't pull his arm back. "Be obedient."
Lin Zaoyi stood firm and said, "No way."
The man stared at her for a moment, then laughed, his low laugh seemingly tinged with helplessness, "Getting more and more arrogant."
"..."
Who's being arrogant?!
She's so reasonable.
The door opened, and she looked inside. It was a duplex with a double-height living room, decorated in a minimalist Italian style with gray and brown tones, which suited his personality perfectly.
There was a pair of shoes in front of me, they were very big. "I'll just wear these."
She didn't move. "What can I do to help you with?"
"advanced."
Tan Zhaojing sat down on the sofa, slowly rolling up his sleeves. As he did so, he beckoned to her with his finger, "Come here."
Lin Zaoyi didn't dare get too close, stopping a meter away, and asked again, "What kind of help do you need?"
This time he answered, saying, "Apply the medicine."
Her mind was filled with questions. "What medicine should I use?"
Tan Zhaojing pointed to his mouth.
Speechless.
"Why do you need me to solve this problem when you can do it yourself in front of the mirror?"
"Because you bit me."
The tone was extremely matter-of-fact.
Lin Zaoyi choked for half a second, then swallowed her anger and asked, "Where's the first-aid kit?"
The dog pointed to the shelf diagonally opposite, "The third shelf."
She moved over, took out a cotton swab, and chose a universal ointment, erythromycin.
As soon as she leaned in, he wrapped his long arm around her waist, and she fell onto his lap with her strong force. She struggled instinctively, but she was no match for his strength.
She glared at him, embarrassed, "You did that on purpose!"
Tan Zhaojing calmly hummed in agreement, "It was intentional."
Lin Zaoyi: "..."
shameless.
Speechless, she looked away. "Are you going to apply the medicine or not?"
"No rush."
He turned her face back, gazing at her with a lazy yet overly focused expression. "Let me hold you for a while."
Something is quietly stirring.
Lin Zaoyi tried to stay calm and control herself, but she couldn't help but be captivated by those eyes.
She muttered spinelessly, "How long are you going to hug me?"
He chuckled softly, brushing his ear, and stroked the top of her head with his chin. "Why don't you set a timer?"
Lin Zaoyi then took out her phone, turned on the timer, and said, "Ten seconds."
Her hand was suddenly empty. Tan Zhaojing snatched her phone and threw it into the corner of the sofa. "Not enough."
"Then don't throw my phone away."
"Are you afraid of me?" he suddenly asked.
She seemed to have lost her fear; after experiencing his series of domineering actions, her temper had taken a leap forward.
The man said to himself, "I don't think I'm afraid, otherwise I wouldn't be so arrogant towards you."
"...No way."
"Not yet," Tan Zhaojing lifted her chin with his finger bone, "slamming doors, throwing tantrums, kicking me, biting me, which of those things weren't your doing?"
Lin Zaoyi retorted confidently, "There are prerequisites to all of this. Who told you to be unreasonable?"
The man smiled casually.
A warm, moist sensation touched his lips; with each breath, he exhaled the unique scent of wormwood and fir.
She turned her head away, saying, "You're being unreasonable again."
Her voice was weak and sounded like she was being coquettish.
Tan Zhaojing cupped the back of her neck in his palm and pulled her closer, saying, "Then Zaoyi should be more generous."
He lowered his head and enveloped her again. She wanted to speak, but her breath was taken away. The remaining clarity pushed him, and he grabbed her hand again.
Her tongue felt burning hot and tingling, and after several twists and turns, she unconsciously clung to his shoulders.
No matter how high the ravine is built, the body is still vulnerable.
In his dazed state, the man asked in a hoarse voice, "Zaoyi, what would happen if I forcibly kept you by my side?"
Before she could catch her breath, Lin Zaoyi opened her eyes groggily, her gaze fixed on his lips, which were thin on top and thick on the bottom, glistening with moisture.
I don't know if it was left by him or her.
A faint blush crept across her cheeks as she breathed softly, "She'll ignore you, and she'll cry..."
"She'll cry." He chuckled helplessly, his fingertips gently pinching her cheek. "Then I'll be more patient."
His voice was low and gentle, making Lin Zaoyi's heart flutter. She lowered her eyes, pouted, and muttered, "Release it quickly."
Although I was under the influence of drugs that night, it doesn't mean I was completely ignorant. Besides, we were pressed tightly together.
She tried to get up, but as soon as she made a move, he pressed her down, right against that spot.
She shifted uncomfortably, and heard him let out a muffled gasp. Immediately afterward, his usually calm expression changed.
She froze, unsure what to do. She tried to ignore it, but her senses were fixated on that one spot.
How could it be so...
The man lifted his eyelids slightly. "What are you doing?"
"without…"
Lin Zaoyi was dizzy, her cheeks flushed red, and her ears burned as well. She dared not look him in the eye, staring at the shirt over his chest. "Can you let go—"
Before the last syllable could fade, her breath was attacked again, his unique scent enveloping her tightly.
Their lips and tongues entwined, their love deepening.
The phone suddenly vibrated, but the owner didn't answer. Lin Zaoyi grew anxious and turned her head away, urging, "Answer it quickly..."
Tan Zhaojing ignored him. As for the person in his arms, he really needed to loosen his grip, otherwise he couldn't guarantee he wouldn't do something.
The girl blushed and glared at him, "Can't you have some sportsmanship?"
A slight smile appeared at the corner of his eye. "Be more careful next time."
Lin Zaoyi doesn't believe him at all.
The phone rang again; this time it was hers. She climbed over him, reached the other end of the sofa, and picked up her phone—a number without a contact name.
The other person introduced themselves, "Ms. Lin, I'm Assistant Shao. Is Mr. Tan next to you?"
On what basis did Assistant Shao conclude that she was with Tan Zhaojing?
I won't ask any more questions, otherwise it will only make me look like I'm trying to cover something up.
Hand the phone to someone.
He turned his head, his eyes languid. "Hmm?"
"Your assistant's phone number."
Tan Zhaojing took it and said, "Speak."
Assistant Shao: "Mr. Tan, we'd like to trouble you. Shangling Capital would like to schedule our discussion for tomorrow morning. What do you think about the timing?"
Tan Zhaojing pondered for two seconds, then said, "Change the flight to tonight."
After hanging up, he looked to the side and said, "I'm going on a business trip to Haicheng tonight. Assistant Shao isn't coming with me. If you need anything, contact him."
Lin Zaoyi puffed out her cheeks and said "Oh," then stood up from the sofa. "I'm going back."
"Here, take this."
She was about to say no, but he had already stood up and walked towards the entrance.
Never mind, he's always been autocratic.
As we approached Green County, I heard him ask, "Is there anything you'd like to eat in Haicheng that you'd like me to bring back?"
Of course there are, and there are many.
After all, it's the city where she grew up.
Is it convenient?
The man nodded.
"I'll send you my location in a bit."
As they were talking, the car stopped in front of the apartment building. She lowered her head, gently pressed the seatbelt, and it clicked shut. A goodbye was about to come out, but his voice drowned it out: "How long are you going to block me out?"
Caught off guard by the question, she paused for two seconds, "You still care about these things?"
Tan Zhaojing loosely rested his hands on the steering wheel, turned to look at her, and asked, "Do you have some misunderstanding about me?"
After a moment of silence, Lin Zaoyi nodded, "There was indeed a misunderstanding."
Tan Zhaojing stared at her for two seconds, "Say it out loud, don't make things up in your mind."
Lin Zaoyi: "..."
The next second, her eyes crinkled with laughter.
Tan Zhaojing laughed, reaching up to rub the back of his neck. "How did you scold me?"
"No, I didn't," Lin Zaoyi denied. "I'm gone."
Tan Zhaojing: You're leaving already?
The sound of a door opening reached my ears, and the girl simply left.
They didn't ask when he would return, nor did they say he had landed safely.
A notification sound plays.
Tan Zhaojing glanced down at the screen, his slightly furrowed brows relaxing slightly, but they furrowed again after he saw the message.
One wasn't enough, so they added another.
[Brother Zhaojing, if you have enough time, could you please bring me some butterfly cookies too? Thanks!]
In terms of heartlessness, she ranks first.
