Chapter 254 Don’t you think I’m old?
Facing Yu Qinghuan's questioning, Cheng Gongjin did not answer, but just changed a piece of soft cloth and continued to wipe her hair which had actually dried long ago.
Yu Qinghuan's thoughts returned to that night.
That little cat that always led him over the door, and how come he happened to be lying in the yard drunk that night, and didn't chase him away when he saw him intruding? This was not Cheng Gongjin's style, unless he was waiting for him to come over.
Even that night, there happened to be a piece of clothing lying next to her, as if he had calculated that she would be soft-hearted and put the clothes on Cheng Gongjin.
Yu Qinghuan didn't think much about it at the time, but looking back now, she felt that nothing was right, as if every step she took was carefully planned.
And there was that mansion. There were so many people buying houses in Beijing, how come she happened to be the one who bought the courtyard connected to Cheng Gongjin? That good location was cheaper than other remote locations, how could no one want it?
Yu Qinghuan narrowed her beautiful eyes and pressed Cheng Gongjin, "Cheng Gongjin, you arranged that house, right?"
The last part of her voice rose slightly, and her tone was like a silk thread, trying to wrap around him and not let him dodge.
At this time, Cheng Gongjin had been forced to the edge of the couch. If he moved any further back, he would fall down. The soft cloth in his hand had already been crumpled into a ball by him.
Under Yu Qinghuan's piercing gaze, Cheng Gongjin's Adam's apple rolled, his thin lips parted slightly, and his voice uttered a little lower and hoarse than usual, "Wasn't it you who hinted at it before?"
Yu Qinghuan was very dissatisfied with his words, "What do you mean I hinted at it first? What did I hint at you?"
Cheng Gongjin looked at her, emphasizing each word and speaking very slowly, "In the Duke's Mansion, you threw yourself into my arms and said a lot of provocative words."
The scene of mistaking someone for someone else suddenly came to mind. Yu Qinghuan's face flushed red and he immediately denied it, "I did recognize the wrong person back then!"
Cheng Gongjin: "Give me a handkerchief."
Yu Qinghuan: "That's because you vomited blood, and I couldn't bear it."
Cheng Gongjin's eyes were dark: "But you looked over here."
Behind the rockery, she was in Mu Huaian's arms, but she was looking at herself.
Yu Qinghuan: “…” She felt that Cheng Gongjin was talking nonsense. How could that casual glance at that time become a hint?
Besides, her mind was full of Mu Huaian at that time, so how could she have any thoughts about Cheng Gongjin.
But at this moment, Cheng Gongjin admitted, "The house is mine."
When a look of 'as expected' appeared on Yu Qinghuan's face, he called out softly, "Yu Qinghuan."
The ending of this sound was drawn out, like a sigh and an accusation. His eyes were fixed on her, "So what if it's me? You can't escape."
The air around was so thick that even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.
The next moment, Yu Qinghuan's eyes were unusually bright, and a low laugh escaped from her throat. Facing Cheng Gongjin's solemn gaze, she moved forward a little.
"But I didn't want to escape."
As she spoke, she hugged Cheng Gongjin's neck, her body trembling with excitement, her beautiful eyes shining brightly, "Someone actually seduced me so deliberately, I can't wait to be excited."
Cheng Gongjin's breathing became noticeably heavier. He stared at the face in front of him, which became increasingly lively with excitement. Obviously, Yu Qinghuan's reaction was beyond his expectations.
But at least it's not annoying.
The smile on Yu Qinghuan's lips grew deeper, and she felt the excitement of having met a worthy opponent. "From now on, you must draw a portrait for me every day."
Cheng Gongjin pursed his lips tightly, didn't ask why, just responded and indulged the person in front of him.
Yu Qinghuan simply snuggled into his arms, resting her cheek on his chest and hugging his waist. "Cheng Gongjin, do you think we look like a couple now?"
Cheng Gongjin asked calmly, "Don't you think I'm old?"
Yu Qinghuan changed her usual attitude, holding his face with both hands, and said seriously, "How are you old? You are thirty-three years old, in the prime of life."
She obviously didn't realize how embarrassing her words were.
After a brief silence, Cheng Gongjin chuckled, "It's late, time to go to bed."
The candles in the room went out. Yu Qinghuan rested her head on Cheng Gongjin's shoulder, her hand on his waist, staring at his profile.
In fact, after spending a long time together, she discovered that Cheng Gongjin and Mu Huaian were actually very different. She was stupid at first, how could she have recognized the wrong person.
As she was thinking, she rubbed her face against Cheng Gongjin's neck, and her hand quietly hooked around that broad palm, carefully pinching it a few times.
This hand feels so nice to touch.
Cheng Gongjin didn't fall asleep until Yu Qinghuan fell into a drowsy sleep. He had never slept on the same bed with anyone before, but he suddenly wanted to try it tonight.
At this time, Yu Qinghuan's entire body was hanging on Cheng Gongjin, pressing him so hard that he could not move and half of his arm was numb.
If this is how ordinary couples sleep, then his decision not to get married is obviously correct.
"Cheng Gongjin..." A confused mumbling sounded in his ears.
"May you live a long life."
Cheng Gongjin paused slightly, his eyes softened a lot, but not every decision he made was correct.
I originally wanted to show her a way to be self-reliant, but suddenly I wanted to live longer and protect her longer.
...
The next day, when Yu Qinghuan woke up, there was no one around him.
She stood up and was about to go out to take a look when she saw Sang Ru coming over with a basin of water. "Are you awake, girl?"
Yu Qinghuan looked around, but there was no one around. "Where's Cheng Gongjin?"
Sang Ru smiled and said, "Lord Cheng got up early this morning. Judging from the direction he was walking, he must be going to see Doctor Li."
She wanted to wake the girl up, but Lord Cheng stopped her, saying that the girl was tired last night and needed to sleep more.
I don’t know what I did last night, but I’m still tired?
Yu Qinghuan nodded slightly, took the wet wipes handed to her by Sang Ru and wiped her face, but found a familiar red jade bracelet on her wrist.
She was stunned. This was the bracelet she had returned to Mu Huaian.
When she knew it was something from the Cheng family, she felt it was inappropriate to wear it, so she returned it to Mu Huaian. So... was it Cheng Gongjin who put it on her while she was sleeping?
Sang Ru, who was standing by, was surprised. "Girl, why is this bracelet back?"
Could it be that the young master gave the girl back last night?
Yu Qinghuan fumbled with the red jade bracelet on her wrist with her fingertips, her red lips curled up slightly, "Cheng Gongjin gave it to me."
Sang Ru was slightly stunned. This time it was Lord Cheng.
A bracelet, and two people took turns to give it to each other. Could it be that the Cheng family and the Duke's family are poor and can't afford to give gifts?
No way...
...
Near noon, Yu Qinghuan returned to her yard to dress up, changed her clothes and went out. Cheng Gongjin had already been waiting in the front yard. When he saw her appear, he was about to get on the carriage.
Yu Qing happily walked up to him, raised her hand, and shook the red jade bracelet on her wrist in front of him, with a smile on her face:
"Mr. Cheng, you told me that this was a Cheng family item and told me not to wear it. Why are you secretly putting it on me while I'm asleep?"
