Chapter 52 The Only Way Out
4:30 PM.
A heart-pounding scene is unfolding in the villa's living room.
Cheng Jiaping lay on the floor, his hoodie pressed against the wet, cold wooden floor, with Shi Qingci kneeling between his legs, the man pinning him down.
Both of her wrists were still being held by Shi Qingci.
When the afternoon sun streamed in through the large French windows, the surrounding light was a warm, golden glow that made Cheng Jia's eyes redden. From the moment her lips were captured, her mind went completely blank.
Warm and soft.
Their tongues clashed and intertwined, and their heartbeats exceeded their highest levels.
It was almost deafening.
"Ugh." Cheng Jia let out a muffled groan in resistance.
The kiss was intensely demanding. Shi Qingci's hand, which had been gripping his chin, now gripped his neck. Cheng Jia's Adam's apple was stuck in the man's dry, strong tiger's mouth, making it difficult for him to even swallow.
She could only stand there helplessly with her mouth agape, blankly accepting the kiss.
Two seconds later—
He bit down on the man's tongue!
"Ouch," Shi Qingci was bitten and her mind cleared from the chaos. She looked up and met Cheng Jia's gaze. Realizing what she had done, she became angry and embarrassed and began to question him, "You dare to bite me?"
Cheng Jia pursed her lips and remained silent.
Her cheeks were flushed, probably from anger.
"One more time." Shi Qingci said it as if she were punishing him, then lowered her head and covered Cheng Jia's lips with hers again. This time the kiss was a little gentler, and their exchange of breaths revealed their infatuation.
There was nothing else on my mind.
Cheng Jia's lips are so soft and kissable.
The moment he kissed those lips, the pain of being deceived in the past vanished, and he no longer cared whether Cheng Jiaxi liked him or not.
It was as if this kiss was a ritual that could heal wounds.
Or perhaps it's an anesthetic for escaping reality.
Smelling Cheng Jia's scent and feeling her body temperature.
Like a weary bird returning to its nest, Shi Qingci's lips and teeth intertwined, briefly numbing the hatred and contradictions he had harbored for five years. This made him even more addicted, and he didn't want to stop at all.
So comfortable that I almost wanted to quietly forgive Cheng Jia.
In fact, if Cheng Jia were just a little gentler and continued to treat him the same way he did five years ago, even if it was just acting, Shi Qingci would easily become immersed in the illusion and give Cheng Jia everything he wanted.
The past need not be brought up again.
They started over...
but.
Cheng Jia was unwilling.
The second kiss didn't last long.
Because Cheng Jia kicked over the bucket of water mixed with maintenance oil!
"Whoosh—"
The cold water flowed onto the floor.
Their clothes were quickly soaked.
Cheng Jia was the worst off; the hair on the back of her head was soaked in oil.
My entire back felt sticky and cold.
It was so cold that I shivered instantly.
“…Get up,” Shi Qingci was forced to stop kissing, quickly pulling Cheng Jia away from the flooded area, glaring at the floor in annoyance, “You really are…”
They really know how to ruin the mood.
Intentionally not giving it to the relative.
"......"
They've finally escaped their captivity!
Cheng Jia took the opportunity to shake off the man's hand, and took several steps back before lowering her head.
Look at my clothes and pants, which are mostly soaked.
She's in such a mess from doing housework.
He was breathing heavily: "That's enough, I...I don't want to do anything for you anymore."
This time, Shi Qingci's behavior went too far.
This exceeded Cheng Jia's tolerance and endurance.
He was willing to let the victim retaliate, but he didn't want to get entangled with Shi Qingci.
Cheng Jia's idea has always been to wait until the victims have finished reporting back.
He left quietly by himself.
Everything is now in disarray.
Because Shi Qingci forcibly kissed him.
I'm too lazy to think about whether it's purely out of revenge or if there are any other emotions involved.
Cheng Jia can neither afford it nor give it to them.
We can't keep going on like this.
Never mind, he'll leave.
Even if they have no idea where they can go.
I guess I'm destined to wander...
They cannot be buried in a cemetery where their parents are.
This is very sad.
Cheng Jia pretended not to care about what had just happened, raised her hand and vigorously wiped the wetness from her lips. Her eyes were red, but her tone was firm: "I'll refund half of the housekeeping fee to Zhou Minghe today. I'm leaving now."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave the villa.
They even left Jin Gang.
"?" Shi Qingci certainly wouldn't let him leave. They'd already kissed, so what did it matter if it was awkward? He moved closer to Cheng Jia, looking at Cheng Jia's clothes covered in dirty water stains. "Go take a shower and put on my clothes first."
It's very cold; you'll catch a cold if you get chilled.
If you have a cold and then kiss, you'll infect Shi Qingci.
Shi Qingci didn't want to catch a cold.
"......"
Cheng Jia raised an eyebrow sharply: "No need!"
What's the difference between taking a shower here and running naked in front of a pervert?
Do not remove, do not wash.
“You have no right to refuse. I said I would use it,” Shi Qingci said firmly, making it clear that he would do whatever he wanted. He also threatened Cheng Jia, “You’d better be obedient and coax me, or you will be kicked out of Jingang with nothing, and I will take care of the Zhou family as well.”
As they talked—
Shi Qingci's heart skipped a beat.
He found that there were very few things that could threaten Cheng Jia.
All you have is work and your boss?
Yes, Cheng Jia has too little.
Cheng Jia asked in astonishment, "Why? The Zhou family hasn't done anything to you."
Just because of his personal grudge, President Shi took action against the Zhou family?
Wasn't it said that Shi Qingci would be calm and rational five years later?
Now I'm being rational.
Cheng Jia suspected that the man was trying to scare him.
I just don't think it's that bad.
“I know the Zhou family didn’t offend me, but I’m not happy that others are doing well. I’m going to mess with them. Including that little singer who lives with you, I’ll make sure he never becomes famous again and can only perform in bars.”
Shi Qingci had a handsome and refined face.
To utter such immoral and morally reprehensible content.
His arrogant and domineering demeanor is a far cry from his previous image as a model citizen who wanted to report Kim Hyuk's shady dealings...
They're like completely different people!
It's hard not to doubt his mental state.
Unpredictable and ruthless.
Cheng Jia pondered and tentatively asked, "Well, if I resign and leave Jingang, you'll have given me enough of a response by now, won't you?"
She was both streaking and doing housework.
There were also several instances of ridicule and mockery.
Cheng Jia didn't want to get entangled with him anymore.
He planned to get away.
“…Leave Jingang? That means you’re going to dump me again,” Shi Qingci raised an eyebrow and sneered twice. He grabbed Cheng Jia’s wrist and walked toward the bathroom in the second bedroom, holding it very tightly. “Don’t even think about something that’s impossible. You can’t leave.”
“But I…” Cheng Jia wanted to say that she was a citizen.
They have freedom of action and will not be restricted.
Shi Qingci interrupted him: "If you insist on disobeying and continuing to resist..."
"I can't guarantee what I'll do to you."
“I have a basement, a background that no outside department would suspect, and countless ways to fake your death and help you cancel your account.”
Cheng Jia is an orphan.
He hid it then.
What can be done?
"!" Cheng Jia blurted out, "Don't try to act like a lunatic, Shi Qingci."
He was so shocked that he shouted out his full name.
What basement? What account cancellation?
Cheng Jia almost didn't recognize this person anymore.
In his memory, the rich young man was just introverted and aloof, not a psychologically twisted pervert or a fanatic. Moreover, Shi Qingci was inherently very proud.
How could someone imprison someone after their advances were rejected?
"Impossible," Cheng Jia refused to believe.
Shi Qingci smiled, indifferent to whether Cheng Jiaxin believed her or not.
"Cheng Jia, you try walking."
Shi Qingci is also looking forward to what she will create.
It's better than feeling stifled like this.
But today is alright.
A relative arrived.
"......"
The bathroom door in the second bedroom was closed.
Cheng Jia braced her hands against the sink, unsure if the person outside had left. She listened intently until the person's footsteps faded away, presumably returning to the master bedroom to shower and change.
They won't let me resign, they won't let me leave.
What do we do now?
How can we draw a clear line and break free from the influence of the Qing dynasty porcelain?
If he wants to leave Jingang, given his relationship with Zhou Minghe...
Will Zhou Minghe help him...?
The person who had left the bathroom returned!
Shi Qingci said to the person inside the door, "The clothes are here. Come out and have dinner with me after you've washed them. Don't think about leaving or running away. Zhou Minghe can't save you. No one in the world can save you."
"Staying by my side is your only way to survive."
It's just obsession, it's just that I want it.
Even lawlessness is acceptable.
"......"
"......"
Suffocation, confusion.
Cheng Jia unconsciously bit her lip.
Suddenly, he frowned, spat out his lips, bent over, and rinsed his mouth vigorously.
Try to wash away the lingering moisture and the feeling of kissing, and be careful not to lose control of your body.
Five years later, he kissed that person again.
Just now.
