Chapter 54 Does it hurt?
Sensing his intention, Ye Qingning suddenly took a step back and hid her wrist behind her back: "Mr. Lin, please wait a moment. I'll change my clothes and go downstairs to cook right away."
Ye Qingning then closed the door again.
Hearing her clearly distant and indifferent voice and her subconscious movement to avoid him, Lin Feiyan frowned slightly.
...
Ye Qingning changed into a set of pajamas, applied some aloe vera gel to her wrists, and then prepared to go downstairs to cook.
She had just stepped out of the room when she saw the man still outside her door.
My heart skipped a beat.
"Mr. Lin..."
Lin Feiyan raised his head, his eyes slightly cold: "Mm."
Ye Qingning wasn't in the mood to say much, and simply said, "I'll go cook right away."
But as they passed each other, Lin Feiyan still managed to grab her wrist.
Ye Qingning hissed, wanting to pull him back but not daring to, only looking at him with helpless eyes: "Mr. Lin..."
Lin Feiyan didn't use force, but gently rubbed her wrist with his thumb. After a while, he looked up at her and said, "I just wanted to give you a warning today. I probably went too far... Does it hurt?"
Ye Qingning seemed to know what he wanted to hear, but stubbornly refused to say it.
She shook her head, her tone cool and stubborn: "It doesn't hurt, I deserve it."
Lin Feiyan's heart skipped a beat, and a hint of displeasure rose in his eyes: "Can't you just give in a little? Weren't you always so good at being charming and coquettish?"
"If acting cute worked, I would probably be..."
He has regained his freedom.
Ye Qingning quickly regained her composure and stopped talking.
Seeing that she had stopped talking, Lin Fei asked, "Already what?"
"nothing."
Ye Qingning sighed inwardly. This is what it's like to live a life of humility; there's no right to freely express one's will.
Judging from the ruthlessness of the man, he could easily kill her if he was unhappy.
Seeing that she insisted on not saying anything, Lin Feiyan's eyes showed a hint of helplessness: "You really want to skateboard that much?"
Ye Qingning glanced at him, wondering how he had brought this up, but still nodded: "Mm."
"Then you can play around the house freely from now on, without having to hide from me." The man said softly, a hint of tenderness finally appearing in his eyes, and a slight smile playing on his lips: "Is that alright?"
Ye Qingning hadn't intended to keep arguing with him, but her wrist still hurt and she hadn't calmed down.
The man has already offered her a way out; if she doesn't take it, she might anger him instead.
"Mm." Ye Qingning nodded, her expression finally easing a bit.
Lin Feiyan breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed her wrist with his thumb again, and then let go: "Go ahead."
After Ye Qingning went downstairs, Lin Feiyan went back to his bedroom, changed his clothes and hung them up. He then took out his phone and made a call to Chen Ci.
"Do you have any ointment that can relieve chafing marks? Preferably one that works immediately."
"Strangulation marks?" Chen Ci didn't quite understand: "Under what circumstances were these strangulation marks formed?"
"You don't need to worry about that, just tell me if it exists or not."
Before Chen Ci could speak, Lin Feiyan added coldly, "I've allocated so much funding for you to focus on your research. If you still can't get this medicine, then I'll cut off your funding. You'd better think carefully before you answer me!"
Chen Ci hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes, yes, even if you don't have it, I'll get it for you... Boss, calm down, the cash flow can't be cut off."
Lin Feiyan nodded: "Okay, I'll give you three hours to finish and bring it to me!"
"Three hours?" Chen Ci hesitated, "Boss, that's too tight a timeframe..."
Lin Feiyan raised his wrist to check his watch: "Then it's two hours. If you don't see the medicine before 9 o'clock, I'll cut off your funding!"
"Boss..."
Chen Ci's wailing came from the other end of the phone, but Lin Feiyan ignored it and hung up immediately. He then sent a message to Chen Chu, instructing him to be ready to cut off Chen Ci's funding at any time.
Upon receiving the message, Chen Chu immediately called Chen Ci.
"What's going on? Why is the bandit leader cutting off your funding?"
