Chapter 84 Seize the Day
Shi Qingci called again.
After calming herself down, Cheng Jia answered the call again.
The two of them spent their time together quietly. Cheng Jia would eat, and Shi Qingci would watch him eat while working. They kept an eye on each other like this for two whole days.
By the third day, Cheng Jia had almost fully recovered.
Urged by someone, I went out to meet someone to see the townhouses in Fuhua Garden.
They're still not familiar with how to go on a date.
They treat house hunting like a dating activity, and it's rare to see couples who remain so polite after sleeping together; it takes time for them to adjust to each other.
It's a two-and-a-half-story villa with an 80-square-meter open-air balcony.
"You like cats and dogs?" Shi Qingci put her arm around Cheng Jia's shoulder and stood on the terrace looking at the distant lake view. In the corner, there was a pet house that the developer had kept when they finished decorating the apartment.
Shi Qingci suggested turning this place into a gym.
Cheng Jia said she wanted to keep it so that Shi Qingci could raise a kitten or puppy in the future.
"You don't like it?" Cheng Jia's hand was held by Shi Qingci, his palm dry and slightly warm. He concealed the sadness in his eyes and said, "Small animals can heal emotions. This house is too big, so it will be very quiet for you to live here in the future."
She was afraid that Shi Qingci would be lonely after his death.
They were both orphans, and loneliness was unbearable for them.
Shi Qingci scoffed, pinching Cheng Jia's cheek with her fingers as she put her arm around his shoulder: "Quiet? You have no idea how noisy you are. You can curse so much while playing games that you could blow the roof off. I need to buy a bunch of earplugs to get some peace and quiet."
The terrace faces a view of lush lakes and mountains stretching for miles.
The scenery is beautiful, and the summer breeze is warm.
I feel like my life is about to be fulfilled.
“Cheng Jia,” Shi Qingci felt a warmth in her heart. The psychologist said he had recovered very well recently and had found the right medicine. She bit Cheng Jia’s earlobe and said, “If you break up with me again, I will really kill you.”
Under the sunlight, Cheng Jia's face was fair and handsome, his skin so clean it seemed to be able to be penetrated by light, and his features were just right, perfectly suited to Shi Qingci's heart.
There are still decades to go, and he has many unforeseen events to guard against.
Will Cheng Jia cheat on me?
Or perhaps they just got a sudden whim and ran away.
Shi Qingci turned Cheng Jia's chin towards her, and just thinking about it made her angry. She bit Cheng Jia's lips and forcefully kissed her.
"Ugh, can't you be a little gentler?" Cheng Jia's tongue went numb from the kisses, and she leaned back.
This person's kissing skills are really terrible.
Shi Qingci raised an eyebrow: "You won't even let me kiss you, are you planning to cheat on me now? Give me your phone so I can check it."
The bad genes came from his father.
He had previously complained about his father's outrageous controlling nature.
Now he's using this desire for control, little by little, on Cheng Jia.
But Shi Qingci had no choice but to control him.
I feel uneasy.
"Can I check your phone?" Cheng Jia wasn't going to put up with him. She pushed him aside and headed downstairs. It was almost lunchtime.
I have a hospital appointment for the day after tomorrow.
Cheng Jia was in a state of confusion.
Shi Qingci followed him closely: "Go ahead and check. I'm not like you, with rich women and socialites all over me. All my contacts are for business."
And these are people whose net worth is enough to talk to him.
Business partners are usually liaised with secretaries.
Shi Qingci had a clean social circle.
You could also say it's boring.
"I'm too lazy to check. You can stay or leave as you please. I can live without anyone." Cheng Jia strolled around the bedroom and study on the second floor. Shi Qingci said that the two of them would move in in a few days.
There are two bedrooms on the second floor, and the study is next to the second bedroom.
The interior is decorated in a modern minimalist style.
Understated luxury in black, white, and gray.
"......"
Shi Qingci's expression gradually turned cold. He couldn't stand Cheng Jia's frivolous and casual tone any longer, so he stepped forward to block Cheng Jia.
"I'm making plans for our future, what do you mean?"
Cheng Jia lowered her eyes and turned her face away: "It doesn't mean anything. I just said I believe you."
I just didn't know about Shi Qingci's persistence.
If you were diagnosed with cancer, would you still insist on having him?
Cheng Jia also suffers from severe anxiety and insecurity.
The fear of being abandoned is the biggest psychological burden for cancer patients.
When Qingci could only pretend not to care.
“You never intended to stay with me for long, you don’t care about me,” Shi Qingci said with a self-deprecating smile in her eyes. She wanted to get angry but tried her best to suppress her temper and nodded in compromise. “No matter what you’re thinking, whether you’re playing me a second time or you’re too lazy to refuse me right now, I won’t let go. You can’t get rid of me.”
Cheng Jia's eyes reddened, and she said in a low voice, "Maybe you're the one who dumped me."
"How could this be?" Shi Qingci glanced at Cheng Jia's red eyes and instantly deflated, then frowned, "...What's wrong with you, Cheng Jia?"
His words weren't harsh; he didn't say anything.
Why are Cheng Jia's eyes wet?
Seeing the Qing porcelain made me panic.
Cheng Jia turned around: "Nothing much, just looking for a place to eat."
"Don't move." Shi Qingci grabbed the arm of the person who was about to leave, pulled Cheng Jia back, and hugged him tightly. Cheng Jia tried to struggle to break free, but he wouldn't let her, holding her very tightly.
"If anything happens, you should tell me. For example, back when you were millions in debt, you shouldn't have tried to shoulder it all alone. You should have told me. Could it be that...?"
"Am I not worthy of your trust?"
Although the friendships formed in youth may not seem very solid.
But he has always been serious.
Cheng Jia was so independent that he rendered Shi Qingci useless.
He really wanted to be Cheng Jia's support.
Cheng Jia, however, did not use him.
"......"
A few seconds of stalemate.
Cheng Jia's anxiety and fear.
I melted into this embrace.
He raised his hand and slowly hugged Shi Qingci back.
Tears welled up in her eyes again.
"Do you even understand? I don't want to date you, I want to live with you and build a family," Shi Qingci said to the person in his arms, letting Cheng Jia bury her face in his shoulder. "Just like you won't abandon your parents, I won't abandon you either."
Cheng Jia said in a muffled voice, "...Mmm."
"Can you trust me?" Shi Qingci asked.
I could feel Cheng Jia's hot, wet tears.
She cried until he felt anxious.
Cheng Jia's throat tightened, but she quickly composed herself: "It's okay, I just feel like I'm about to have a home, and I'm very touched. Thank you."
Before he dies, he can still have a home.
That's great, thank you Shi Qingci.
"I'm thanking you," Shi Qingci said through gritted teeth, cupping Cheng Jia's still red-eyed face. "As long as you don't run away, I'll give you anything. Trust me, okay?"
Cheng Jia looked at the person in front of her with teary eyes.
"Hmm." He didn't run.
"So what exactly happened? Don't hide it from me," Shi Qingci could tell something was wrong. Cheng Jia must have encountered something unbearable, otherwise, a normally strong person wouldn't be crying like this. "Do you owe a huge amount of money to loan sharks? Gambling? Or something else?"
"Your old flame has come looking for you?"
"You had children with other women, are you afraid I'll kill them?"
Shi Qingci's guesses became increasingly absurd, and he looked anxious.
"......"
Cheng Jia closed her eyes, leaned forward, and kissed the person's lips, sealing away all unrelated speculations. The soft warmth of their lips touching was enough to soothe her anxiety.
He was gentler than Shi Qingci, and his kisses were extremely skillful.
That's so provocative.
Shi Qingci endured for a moment, then gently pushed him away: "...It's hard to tolerate, don't provoke me."
They had only been eating meat for a few days and were just beginning to savor its flavor.
He didn't dare to do more because he was concerned about Cheng Jia's health.
"Then don't hold back." Cheng Jia glanced at the new house, her eyes reddening as she grinned mischievously. "Don't you want to come here once? It's our home."
Shi Qingci's eyes immediately changed, and her hand couldn't help but reach for Cheng Jia's waist, while she struggled with her words: "...There's nothing there."
"I brought it." Cheng Jia pulled it out of his jeans pocket.
When it was raised, Qingci's eyes swayed.
Shi Qingci stared blankly: "?"
He actually carries this with him everywhere.
“You don’t understand,” Cheng Jia smiled bitterly, then kissed Shi Qingci again to avoid being seen. As their lips met, she murmured heartbrokenly, “Enjoy life while you can.”
Who knows when it might break out?
We must cherish the present moment.
Don't waste time.
"......"
The bedroom door was kicked shut.
There was the sound of a belt hitting the ground in the room, followed shortly by Cheng Jia's painful gasps.
"You asked for it, just bear with it." The latter tore the plastic apart with his teeth.
The tone was as if he wanted to eat people.
It ignites instantly!
