Chapter 76 76 “He’s not doing well at all”
She felt the familiar touch of his lips, and before she could even react, the man put his arm around her waist and held her tightly in his arms.
The almost rough penetration penetrated her lips and teeth, and Chen Zan was forced to raise her head to endure it. There were still tears on her cheeks, but she didn't bother to wipe them away. Her fingertips caught the wrinkles on the corner of his clothes, and her whole body began to weaken, like a shaky mast in a rainstorm.
She was almost out of breath, and Chen Zan subconsciously shrank back. The next second, He Jingsui raised his hand and grabbed the back of her head, as if he wanted to grab all the softness in her mouth.
So passionate and so unrestrained.
A tear slipped from the corner of her eye, bitter and reminiscent of the five years they'd been apart. His lips were wet, pressed against hers with such tenderness and lingering caress that she felt like a sponge soaking up all the moisture, lost in its depths, unable to regain consciousness. His breath was hot, unbridled and overwhelming, like a surging tide, threatening to drown her completely.
Chen Zhan clutched the clothes on his chest, his wet eyelashes trembling slightly. She responded lightly as if addicted, their noses touching, their breaths mingled together, their lips and tongues sucking deeply and reluctantly. In this spacious and quiet room, their lips and teeth intertwined in oblivion.
She was a little unconscious from his kiss, her wet eyes were blurred and distracted, and the soft sofa became the last place her back could lean on. Chen Zan tilted her head back, her breathing a little unstable.
"He Jingsui..."
Leaving her lips, his eyes fell on her gorgeous, moist yet slightly swollen lips, and he wiped the corner of her mouth with his fingertips.
He kissed her again as if he was obsessed.
He Jingsui kissed her for a long time before letting her go. He sat next to her and held her in his arms.
With their fingers intertwined, he suddenly spoke, his voice a little hoarse, "Chen Zhan."
"Hmm?" The girl leaning in his arms sounded weak.
He Jing turned his head to look at her. She was as lazy as a kitten, leaning against him obediently, not moving. He curved his lips and smiled, tilting his head, and leaning his head against her.
His chest heaving slightly, he asked her softly, "Did you miss me during the years we were apart?"
"think."
The head in his arms rubbed against her like a spoiled child, and he could actually hear some grievance in her voice, "I think about it every day."
He chuckled and held the person in his arms a little tighter.
Little did he know he also heard her ask, "What about you?"
"Do you miss me?"
"Yeah," He Jingsui put his lips on her forehead and kissed her tenderly. He told her, "I do."
"I miss you so much."
He said "I really want to" many times in one breath.
Chen Zhan hugged him tightly, raised her head in his arms, leaned over, and carefully kissed the corner of his lips. Her wet eyes were still wet as she looked at him seriously and said to him seriously, "I'm sorry..."
"I shouldn't have said that to you back then."
She said he was selfish, saying that he only thought about himself and didn't care about anything else. She still remembered that she used herself as a bargaining chip to force him to break up. It was obvious that she was the most selfish one.
But He Jingsui just rubbed her head, with a relaxed arc on the corner of his lips, and told her, "I don't blame you. I really don't blame you for what happened back then."
None of them did anything wrong.
"But why didn't you tell me?" He Jingsui asked her, "Why did you keep those words of He Jinzhou to yourself?"
"Because... he's your father." Chen Zan said, "He Jingsui, no matter how many conflicts you have with him, he is still your father. When your father came to me the other day and told me that you had given up on going abroad, I was actually very sad. I wasn't sad that you gave up going abroad, but sad that I heard such a big thing from someone else."
"Later, your father said that you gave up this opportunity because of me. He bluntly said that I was a stumbling block in your life. It made me unable to face myself or you."
"That opportunity was so precious to you back then. It was your dream, and even your mother's last wish," she said, looking at him. "He Jingsui, I'm with you. I don't want you to give up anything in exchange. I'm with you just for the sake of being together. Just being together is enough."
Her pupils were clear, as clean as water, and her serious and pious expression made He Jingsui chuckle and curl the corners of his lips. He said, "I know."
"Because whether it's my dream, my mother's last wish, or you, they're all equally important." He Jing raised his hand to tidy up the messy hair that was stuck to her face. "I won't bet on anything."
"I made the decision to give up that opportunity," He Jingsui explained to her carefully, "because I felt that while the opportunity was important, what was more important was the firmer determination in my heart. I believed in myself."
"But I didn't expect that He Jinzhou would take advantage of me." He raised his hand and scratched her nose, his voice filled with a doting and complaining tone, "I made you misunderstand me for so many years in vain."
They only talked about this matter today.
Chen Zhan also realized the misunderstanding and said with a somewhat embarrassed look on his face, "I'm sorry..."
She is still the same as before.
A familiar feeling crept into his heart. He Jingsui pinched her face and looked at her lovingly. "It's been five years. How come you still only know these three words?"
"Then...what should I do?"
"Think for yourself."
He looked at her calmly and calmly, his eyes falling lightly on her face. It was silent, but contained deep meaning.
Yet he looked normal.
Being stared at like that, Chen Zan's fair cheeks felt like they were on fire, and his mind was thinking uncontrollably.
Pursing her red lips, she said to him weakly, "Then I...will compensate you?"
He Jingsui's fox tail was exposed so easily, "How do you compensate me?"
"I'm going to buy you a present."
His strong arms wrapped around her waist and pulled her into his embrace.
Warm breaths collided, and Chen Zhan heard him say, "Chen Zhan, we've been apart for so many years, and you just bought me a gift to perfunctorily?"
Her chin rested on his heart.
Chen Zhan tilted his head slightly to look at him, "Then you..."
Before she could finish her words, He Jingsui came closer and kissed her on the lips.
Chen Zan was slightly stunned.
He taught her, "From now on, kiss me every day."
As he spoke, he came closer and, while his lips and teeth were entangled with hers, he vaguely told her, "Like me."
Chen Zan was so happy to be together with He Jingsui again. They even agreed that they would never hide anything from each other in their hearts, communicate and solve problems as soon as they arose, and then stay together for the rest of their lives.
"Don't be so foolish again," He Jingsui said to her, "The only explanation you can trust about our relationship is my own."
"Well," Chen Zan leaned forward and rubbed his nose, his sparkling eyes slightly curved, "He Jingsui, can we never leave each other again?"
"Okay," He Jingsui said, "I won't leave."
Jiang Qiannan was the first to know that the two were back together. He called to congratulate He Jingsui, "After chasing you for so long, you finally got her?"
Jiang Qiannan almost died of laughter, "Weren't you quite capable before? You could just wave your finger and girls would come up to you?"
He Jing then lit a cigarette and held it between his fingers, but didn't smoke. He lazily leaned back on the sofa and said, "Our Zhanzhan is different from them."
"Hey," Jiang Qiannan teased on the other end of the phone, "Here's your Zhanzhan. He Jingsui, do you want to go look in the mirror and see what you look like now?"
"What?" After clearing up the misunderstanding with Chen Zan and getting back together, He Jingsui was in a good mood and was willing to go along with him. The curve of his lips never disappeared.
"Look at how smug you are!" Jiang Qiannan said, "You're like a peacock, spreading its feathers whenever it sees someone."
He Jingsui chuckled, seeming to agree with his statement, and responded without any modesty, "That can't be helped. After all, I will be different from you in the future."
He didn't even bother to act anymore. The happiness in his voice rushed towards Jiang Qiannan on the phone like a flood, "I'm a married man now."
"A single guy like you will never understand my happiness."
“…”
Single guy Jiang Qiannan was furious and helpless on the other end of the phone, so he turned around and complained to He Shiyi.
She had just finished what she needed to do abroad, and after hearing what Jiang Qiannan said, she specially booked the earliest flight to fly back from abroad.
Then he went straight to Chen Zan's house.
"Zhanzhan, are you really back together with my brother?" The sisters sat on the sofa. He Shiyi held Chen Zan's hand and asked her seriously.
Chen Zhan nodded with a curved lip, "Hmm..."
She told He Shiyi: "What happened five years ago was a misunderstanding. I misunderstood He Jingsui..."
"Wuwuwu..." He Shiyi suddenly rushed over and hugged her, almost crying out of heartache, his voice trembling, "That's great, wuwuwu, I knew it, I knew you still liked him after all these years..."
"Zhanzhan, I'm so happy that you two can be together again..."
Chen Zhan raised his arm and put his arm around her waist. "Thank you, Shi Yi. Even though that incident was so ugly back then, you still didn't give up on me and continued to be my good friend."
"Silly girl," He Shiyi let go of her and raised his hand to rub her cheek, "Of course I won't give up on you."
"You are my best friend in He Shiyi's life."
She laughed again as she spoke, "Besides, we're more than just friends now."
"From now on, you must change your words and call me sister-in-law."
These two words were too happy. Chen Zhan pursed her lips a little embarrassedly. She was a little shy and said to her, "Then you should call me by my name. I'm not used to calling you sister-in-law..."
"It's okay," He Shiyi curled her eyes playfully and said, "If I yell more often, you'll get used to it."
"Besides, if you marry my brother in the future, I will still have to call you sister-in-law."
"Now... just consider it as adapting in advance!"
“…”
He Shiyi returned to China and specially invited them out for a gathering. He also took this opportunity to celebrate the reunion of He Jingsui and Chen Zan.
star-bar VIP box.
The lights were dimmed, He Shiyi was holding a microphone and howling along with the music, He Jingsui and Jiang Qiannan were drinking slowly, and Chen Zan was sitting next to He Jingsui, their fingers intertwined, never letting go.
Jiang Qiannan was speechless at He Jingsui's clinginess. Amidst He Shiyi's ghostly howling, he asked him in a hoarse voice, "Brother, where's your other hand? It's crippled."
The hazy light slowly passed over them. He Jing then raised his other hand and said, as if showing off their love, "I'm holding my wife."
“…”
Jiang Qiannan laughed out loud when he saw him being so clingy for the first time. "Why, are you afraid your wife will run away?"
"Yeah, I'm afraid she'll run away."
As He Jingsui spoke, he turned his head to glance at Chen Zan beside him and slowly counted the evidence of her guilt. "After all, there is a precedent. I have to be on guard."
“…”
This made Chen Zan blush with embarrassment.
She raised her hand and pushed him, "How could I..."
Putting down the wine glass in his hand, He Jing raised his hand, put his arm around Chen Zan's shoulders and pulled him into his arms.
In the dim light, he leaned over and rubbed her nose affectionately.
There was a hint of fondness in his voice, "Really?"
This question sounded more like an affirmation.
Chen Zhan's cheeks flushed, and he pulled his head back to distance himself from him. "Don't be like this... There are other people..."
She really couldn't stand He Jingsui flirting with her anytime and anywhere.
Not just her.
He Shiyi couldn't stand it either.
Halfway through the song, she came over and pulled Chen Zan away, "Brother, everyone knows you have a wife now, but can you please be more reserved?"
"Zhanzhan is blushing..." He Shiyi put his palm against Chen Zan's cheek and felt the warmth of her skin.
"Where's the redness?" He Jingsui couldn't see Chen Zan's face clearly in the dim light, so he raised his chin towards Chen Zan and said, "Come here and let me take a look."
“…”
Chen Zan's heart was pounding. She ignored He Jingsui's clinginess and didn't go over. Instead, she chose to go sing with He Shiyi nearby.
In this dim space, one can still vaguely see her panicked figure.
The lights of the bright lights and wine passed over him. He Jingsui looked at him with his eyes slightly narrowed, a lazy smile on the corner of his mouth. He twitched his lips, and the unbridled doting was revealed in his eyes even with his mouth closed.
Jiang Qiannan poured him some wine, and the two brothers clinked their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.
Before drinking, Jiang Qiannan raised his hand and patted his shoulder. He said to him, "He Jingsui, you are completely hopeless now."
He admitted this; from the moment he fell madly in love with her, he was completely hopeless.
By the end of the drinking, the box was in a mess. He Jingsui was a little tipsy but not drunk. He leaned lazily on the sofa as if he had no skin or bones, and he unbuttoned two buttons on the collar of his shirt.
In the thin light, the man's chest rose and fell slightly.
Chen Zan went to the bathroom and met Jiang Qiannan when he came back. Thinking that he was also going to the bathroom, Chen Zan nodded to him as a greeting and then walked around him.
Unexpectedly, he called me.
"Chen Zan."
Pausing for a moment, Chen Zhan turned his head to look at him, his gaze falling on his slightly drunk face. "What's wrong?"
Jiang Qiannan smiled at her and said, "Let's chat."
Chen Zan nodded in agreement, and the two did not return to the box.
Their floor was a private room within the bar, offering excellent privacy. Across the corridor was a viewing platform, and the two of them went there.
"Do you mind if I smoke a cigarette?" Jiang Qiannan leaned against the railing and turned to ask her.
Chen Zhan shook his head. "Just do as you please."
"Okay," he reached into his trouser pocket, took out a cigarette case, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, then reached for the lighter, tilted his head and blocked it with his hand, and when he was about to light it, he stopped.
He didn't smoke the cigarette. He took it out of his mouth and put it back into his trouser pocket along with the lighter. "Forget it, I'm not going to smoke it."
He was busy for a while, and Chen Zan just stood quietly beside him.
No sound was made to disturb him.
until--
"How were your years abroad?" Jiang Qiannan suddenly asked her, "Are you adapting well?"
Chen Zhan shook his head, "I can't adapt."
I don't fit in anywhere.
With no friends or family around her, she stayed alone in such a strange city, like a helpless duckweed, going wherever the wind took her.
Even, no one can understand her longing, understand that her heart misses someone day and night.
"You're quite impressive, having achieved so much in just five years."
Chen Zhan curled his lips at him and said, "Thank you."
As the topic opened up, the atmosphere between the two became more relaxed. Chen Zhan also asked him, "How about you, how have the past five years been?"
Jiang Qiannan smiled and spread his hands to her, "Don't you see it? It's like this now."
"What about him?" Chen Zhan asked cautiously. She still remembered the unpleasantness of their last conversation, so she asked tentatively, "How has he been these past five years?"
After saying this, Jiang Qiannan fell silent. His eyes were slightly unfocused, staring blankly at a certain spot, as if he was recalling the past.
He told her the truth, "Chen Zhan, do you know that after you left, Asui's life has not been good at all."
"He was almost ruined."
Jiang Qiannan's five words made Chen Zan's heart skip a beat.
It was like thousands of needles piercing her heart, and the feeling of pain and torture came back at this moment.
