Chapter 463: Jiang Budu x Tang Qing "One Night of Dust"
Early morning.
Tang Qing was sitting on the sofa, half asleep and half awake, when he was startled by a knock on the door.
She rubbed her eyes and stood up. As soon as she opened the door, the drunken man in front of her pulled her into his arms, bent down to kiss her ear, and his heavy breathing was filled with undisguised desire.
Mixed with the smell of alcohol was the scent of women's perfume, which was not strong but particularly pungent.
Tang Qing recalled the scene he saw in the club a few hours ago, and felt like something was stuck in his throat. He subconsciously wanted to break free from his arms.
Her rejection aroused the dissatisfaction of the man behind her. He turned her around, lifted her chin, and looked at her with displeasure in his slightly drunken eyes: "You don't want to be touched anymore?"
"You've had too much to drink." Tang Qing pretended to be calm and reminded him, "Get some rest tonight."
"I can still make you happy even if I'm drunk." He chuckled, picked her up and walked towards the bedroom.
In less than a minute, Tang Qing was thrown onto the bed and his body pressed on top of him.
The scent of perfume became stronger.
Tang Qing took a deep breath. When he saw the lipstick mark on his collar, his stomach churned and he could no longer suppress the feeling of nausea.
She retched.
The man on her body stopped moving because of the noise, and stared at her with narrowed eyes: "What's wrong with you?"
She shook her head and made up an excuse: "I feel sick to my stomach."
"Really?" His voice was cold and thin, clearly showing distrust. "I'll take you to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow."
Meeting his sharp gaze, Tang Qing immediately guessed what he was thinking: "I've been taking Yasmin."
So, what he was worried about would not happen.
He stared at her for a while, not knowing whether she believed it or not. Then he began to tear off her clothes and kissed her collarbone.
Tang Qing closed his eyes and gripped the bed sheet with his fingers. "Boss Jiang, when will our relationship end?"
"You're asking this at a time like this, just to spoil my fun?" He unzipped her skirt. "We'll talk after we're done."
"Wait." Tang Qing held his hand, "Condom."
"Aren't you taking medicine? There's no need." He refused.
"...It's unhygienic." She remembered the scene in the club again, and a dry heave came out uncontrollably.
The bedroom suddenly fell silent. The man stared at her face, his eyes gradually revealing cruelty.
"What? Do you think I'm dirty?" He sneered, shook off her hand, and pushed her skirt up directly, rubbing his palm against her thigh. "I don't know how many times I've fucked you. Isn't it too late to feel disgusted now?"
"Let's separate." She said softly, "You don't lack women."
"Okay." He smiled and folded one of her legs. "If you serve me well tonight, I'll consider it."
…
The plane shook and Tang Qing suddenly sat up.
The maintenance staff is reporting that the plane is descending and is expected to arrive at Beicheng International Airport in twenty minutes.
Tang Qing touched his chest and took a few deep breaths, with sweat slightly on his forehead and nose.
Maybe it’s because I haven’t had enough rest recently due to the long journey, so I dreamed about those unhappy things.
"Having a nightmare?" Tang Qing heard the voice coming from beside him.
She glanced sideways and made eye contact with Shi Chen who was standing beside her.
Shi Chen handed her a pack of wet wipes and said, "Wipe the sweat off."
"Thank you." Tang Qing took it.
Shi Chen: "What did you dream about? I saw you were shaking just now, and I was wondering whether to wake you up."
Tang Qing shook his head. "Nothing. I've been too tired lately and have been having messy dreams."
Shi Chen: "Look out the window and relax."
After his reminder, Tang Qing turned and looked out the window.
April is the bustling season in the North City. The plane slowly landed and I looked out the window to see a sea of fresh green.
With deep breathing, my anxious thoughts gradually calmed down.
Thinking of that dream, Tang Qing unconsciously raised his hand and touched his lower abdomen.
It has been more than three months since the operation. During this period, she has traveled to five countries and twelve cities and rarely thought about the operation.
Returning to North City, the scene brought back some memories, which naturally flooded into my mind.
However, she did not let these emotions trap her for too long and quickly adjusted herself.
"I'll take you back later." Seeing that Tang Qing's condition had improved a little, Shi Chen told her about the future arrangements.
Hearing this, Tang Qing looked at him again: "Are you free?"
"My car is parked at the airport, very convenient." Shi Chen glanced at his watch. "It will be around 5:30 when we get to your community."
Tang Qing was stunned for a few seconds: "Do you know where I live?"
Shi Chen smiled and said, "You just talked to me about this a few days ago, have you forgotten?"
Tang Qing thought about it carefully and it seemed that this was indeed the case.
Shi Chen was her undergraduate classmate and had pursued her back then. The two had an ambiguous relationship for a while. When Shi Chen was a junior, he went to Cornell as an exchange student and later stayed there for graduate studies. The ambiguous relationship between the two ended.
After graduating from college, Tang Qing did not deliberately contact Shi Chen. He only heard in the university group that Shi Chen stayed in New York for a year after graduation and then returned to China to start a business and opened his own venture capital company.
North City is very big, and two people who don’t deliberately contact each other have almost no chance of meeting by chance. At least, Tang Qing has not met Shi Chen in these years.
Unexpectedly, the two met again at the Great Barrier Reef.
They had the same diving instructor. After diving that day, Shi Chen asked her out for dinner and found out that they were staying in the same hotel.
Shi Chen said that he was out to play alone, so the two of them naturally teamed up.
Later we traveled together for more than ten days.
Along the way, the two of them got to know each other's current situation.
Shi Chen came out to relax on his annual leave. Tang Qing told him that she had quit her job to travel. Shi Chen was a little surprised to hear that she had quit her job at the bank.
Tang Qing didn't explain the real reason to him, either because he was deliberately hiding it or because he didn't know how to say it.
At the end of the trip, the two booked the same flight back.
Tang Qing originally wanted to travel around Europe again, but Song Yi was going to have her wedding in April. It was a major event in her friend's life, and she had to be present, so she canceled the plan.
While I was thinking, the plane had already landed and was taxiing.
Tang Qing came back to his senses and said to Shi Chen beside him, "Then I'll trouble you."
Shi Chen: "Why don't you treat me to dinner tonight?"
Tang Qing: "If you have time."
Shi Chen: "If you please, of course I'm free."
Tang Qing is not an inexperienced young girl. She has seen clearly what Shi Chen thinks of her during this period of time.
Shi Chen's appearance is very consistent with her aesthetic taste. He is 1.85 meters tall and not very handsome, but he has a good temperament, always smiling, high emotional intelligence, and a good personality.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been attracted to him when she was studying.
If she had not experienced these things, she would probably have rekindled her old love with Shi Chen during her time in Australia.
But things are different now, and not everyone can accept her "dark history" with Jiang Budu.
