Chapter 41
Luo Qingli was startled and stood up suddenly. He didn't hold the phone firmly in his hand and it fell to the ground with a bang.
She subconsciously clasped her hands across her chest and cautiously took a few steps back.
Could it be that Jiang Yao was chasing after him?
The path was dimly lit, and he couldn't see the person's appearance at all. He could only see a vague outline. But when he thought carefully about what had just happened, Luo Qingli's keen sense of smell seemed to have smelled a familiar fragrance.
"Ji Jinsi?" Luo Qingli asked cautiously.
"It's me." Ji Jinsi's voice came.
He stood two steps away from Luo Qingli like a gentleman because of Luo Qingli's resistance just now.
After confirming that it was Ji Jinsi, Luo Qingli finally let go of his worries.
"I didn't see you at the venue just now, and you didn't answer my call. I only followed you when I saw someone who looked like you coming this way."
"Something happened, Ji Jinsi, can you help me?" Luo Qingli stretched out his hand towards Ji Jinsi.
Ji Jinsi held Luo Qingli's hand again, only to feel the skin under his palm was wet and cold.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Ji Jinsi put his hand on Luo Qingli's shoulder without waiting for her to answer.
He touched the dripping fabric, which still felt cool on this summer night.
"Nothing, I accidentally fell into the swimming pool. Could you please take me to an empty room? I'll contact Jiang Ran to get me a change of clothes."
Ji Jinsi's appearance calmed Luo Qingli's originally uneasy heart a little, and she expressed her request to Ji Jinsi in a calm voice.
Ji Jinsi bent down and picked up Luo Qingli's cell phone, which was still glowing and the handbag next to it that had fallen on the ground.
Then he reached out and picked up Luo Qingli horizontally.
Her gauze skirt was still dripping with water, which soon soaked his clothes.
Ji Jinsi's sudden action made Luo Qingli exclaim. Soon, she stretched out one hand to hold Ji Jinsi's neck, while the other hand was still covering her chest.
Ji Jinsi seemed to be very familiar with this villa. He walked around and around until he reached the back door of the villa and entered through the back door.
All the guests gathered in the front hall. It was very quiet at the back door and only the faint sound of music could be heard coming from the front hall.
Ji Jinsi found a room nearby and went in.
This room seemed to be a storage room, filled with some rarely used furniture.
Ji Jinsi put Luo Qingli down and turned on the light in the room. Only then did he see Luo Qingli's miserable appearance.
Luo Qingli stood barefoot on the floor. Because the house had central air conditioning, the tile floor felt a little icy.
The wet dress and hair stuck to my body, and became even colder due to the air conditioning.
She couldn't help but sneeze.
Luo Qingli lifted up the clothes that were about to fall off her chest, and then said to Ji Jinsi: "Can you help me tie the shoulder straps? They keep falling off like this."
Ji Jinsi hadn't spoken since turning on the light. Upon hearing Luo Qingli's request, he stepped forward and quickly fastened the shoulder strap.
Although it didn't work very well, it at least had some psychological effect. Luo Qingli loosened the grip on his chest.
Ji Jinsi took off his suit jacket and put it on Luo Qingli.
The familiar fragrance with warmth surrounded Luo Qingli, making her originally pale face look better.
"Thanks."
"Wait here for a moment, I'll be back soon." Ji Jinsi went out and closed the door.
Luo Qingli took out her cell phone and saw that Jiang Ran had sent her several messages.
"Qingli, where have you been? There was an accident at the swimming pool. Are you okay?"
"Qingli, don't scare me, where are you?"
"I didn't find you in the swimming pool either. Where did you go?"
......
Luo Qingli replied: "I've left the swimming pool. Don't worry, I'm fine."
Jiang Ran on the other end quickly replied to the message.
"That's great. I was worried something might have happened to you."
"What happened by the pool? Why did Sun Qingqing faint by the pool?"
"And Jiang Yao actually fell in too!"
"It's a mess now, everyone is running out to watch the fun."
"Jiang Yao's shamelessness is nothing, but if Sun Qingqing wakes up, I'm afraid the sky will fall."
Luo Qingli was glad that she ran away quickly, otherwise she would be the one being watched over there.
However, this time, she had definitely offended Jiang Yao completely.
"I'm fine. I'll tell you the details later. Please stay away from Jiang Yao."
Luo Qingli was about to continue typing to ask Jiang Ran to bring her clothes when she heard the door open.
Ji Jinsi walked in.
Before Luo Qingli could react, Ji Jinsi walked up to her and picked her up.
"What's wrong?" Luo Qingli asked puzzledly.
"It's okay. You need a hot shower now. I've had someone prepare a change of clothes."
Ji Jinsi looked in a very bad mood, with a frown on his face.
Luo Qingli knew that Ji Jinsi was angry and he was now suppressing his anger.
In order to avoid being accidentally hurt by Ji Jinsi's anger, Luo Qingli quickly explained: "I really didn't fall into the swimming pool on purpose. It was Sun Qingqing who wanted to harm me. I was acting in self-defense."
Ji Jinsi pursed his lips and said nothing.
He walked through the corridor and went up to the second floor. Luo Qingli noticed that he didn't meet a single servant along the way.
Ji Jinsi opened a door at the corner, which seemed to be a guest room with carpet on the floor.
Ji Jinsi carried Luo Qingli to the bathroom door in the corner of the room, put Luo Qingli down and said, "Go take a hot bath first."
Luo Qingli nodded and closed the bathroom door.
After taking a quick shower, the coldness in Luo Qingli's body was dispelled by the hot water. His face regained its rosy complexion, and was even a little red due to the heat.
The dress she had just changed out of was no longer wearable. Luo Qingli blew her hair dry and waited for a while, but didn't hear any movement outside the door.
There was no bathrobe in the bathroom, so she could only wrap herself with a bath towel and quietly opened the bathroom door.
The room was quiet and Ji Jinsi was not there.
The room didn't seem to have air conditioning, but Luo Qingli felt the temperature was comfortable even without any clothes on.
She walked on the soft carpet to the bed, where her cell phone was still.
Luo Qingli leaned over to pick up the phone when he heard the door open behind him.
She turned around suddenly and saw Ji Jinsi coming in with a bag in his hand.
Seeing Luo Qingli, Ji Jinsi seemed very surprised. He was stunned for a moment and immediately closed the door.
When Luo Qingli saw the bag in Ji Jinsi's hand, he knew that it was the clothes he had prepared, so he reached out to take it.
It felt so strange to be without clothes.
Unexpectedly, Ji Jinsi put the bag in his hand on the cabinet beside the door and took a step towards Luo Qingli.
Luo Qingli suddenly felt a dangerous aura coming, and she subconsciously took a step back.
Ji Jinsi walked slowly towards Luo Qingli, a storm seemed to be brewing in his eyes.
What's going on? He was fine just now, why did his expression suddenly change?
Luo Qingli was confused and stepped back subconsciously, eventually tripping over the edge of the bed and falling onto it.
Ji Jinsi leaned over, supporting himself with his hands on Luo Qingli's sides, as if covering Luo Qingli's entire body under him.
Luo Qingli was lying on the bed with her hair loose, her face still flushed from bathing, and her whole body exuded a faint fragrance.
Ji Jinsi felt like there was a wild beast in his heart, clamoring and roaring, trying to break through the cage that imprisoned him.
"Ji Jinsi, what's wrong with you?" Luo Qingli asked, covering her chest which was about to be exposed.
"Jiang Yao also fell into the water. Were you with Jiang Yao before?" Ji Jinsi asked while suppressing his anger.
He didn't want to be nervous, but the other person was Jiang Yao, a famous playboy in the circle who was the best at making women happy.
An inexplicable sense of inferiority in Ji Jinsi's heart made him unable to control his emotions.
What if, what if Luo Qingli falls in love with Jiang Yao?
Jiang Yao knows how to please women better than he does. Compared with Jiang Yao, he has no advantage at all.
Luo Qingli didn't know what was going on in Ji Jinsi's heart. She thought she could no longer hide it, so she nodded and said, "Well, I met him at the swimming pool."
Ji Jinsi's pupils shrank suddenly, "Then you and him..."
"I dragged him into the water."
Speaking of this, Luo Qingli felt refreshed and let Jiang Yao watch the show on the side!
Luo Qingli's answer made Ji Jinsi's eyes temporarily confused. "You pulled him into the water?"
Luo Qingli briefly recounted what happened tonight, and concluded, "He was left to watch the show, and he even threatened me. I'm going to make others laugh at him too! If a tiger doesn't show its might, people will think I'm a sick cat!"
Looking at Luo Qingli gritting his teeth, Ji Jinsi suddenly smiled.
Luo Qingli sensitively noticed that Ji Jinsi's mood seemed to have improved a little.
Did Ji Jinsi have a grudge against Jiang Yao? Was he happy to see Jiang Yao embarrassed? Luo Qingli was completely puzzled.
Ji Jinsi lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss on Luo Qingli's forehead. Then, staring at Luo Qingli who was so close to him, he said, "You did very well. In the future, you should also be so bold to do it. If anything goes wrong, I will help you clean up the mess."
Luo Qingli was stunned by Ji Jinsi's sudden kiss and stood there in silence.
Ji Jinsi's throat moved. In his eyes, Luo Qingli at this moment was like a delicious dish, which made him want to swallow her into his stomach.
But he couldn't, he was afraid of scaring her.
Ji Jinsi stood up and handed the bag of clothes to Luo Qingli.
"Change your clothes, we should go back."
After saying that, Ji Jinsi opened the door and went out.
Luo Qingli sat up. Ji Jinsi came and left inexplicably, which made her a little confused.
She shook her head and decided not to think about it.
The clothes that Ji Jinsi brought were a loose-fitting dress that felt very comfortable to the touch. It even came with matching underwear and a pair of flat shoes.
Luo Qingli changed his clothes and opened the door. Ji Jinsi was standing at the door.
Seeing Luo Qingli open the door and come out, Ji Jinsi said, "Let's go, let's go back."
"But that dress..."
"I'll have someone come get it. You're tired today, so go back early."
"I haven't told Jiang Ran yet."
"I've already told her that she and Lin Pingyu have already gone back."
Luo Qingli nodded and followed Ji Jinsi out of the villa.
