Chapter 12 The one she accidentally kissed just now was his…
Chapter 12
After the first class, during the break, Liu Hengheng insisted that Wen Yining go with him to the backyard to play with the newly bought soccer ball.
The little boy tugged at her and begged her for a bit, and Wen Yining, who absolutely hated exercise, gave in without any resistance.
The sunlight was perfect at this time, making the lush green grass, trees, and leaves glow, and the temperature wasn't too hot.
The backyard was much larger than the front yard, flat and spacious, with only a large pond and a few maple trees by the wall. The lush green grass on the ground reached up to my ankles, making it look like the meadow in the Green Green Grassland.
Although Liu Hengheng is young, he is a lively and energetic boy. Wen Yining is thin and weak, and she is someone who only likes to use her brain but never her legs. She also has no experience and can't beat him at all.
The score between the two was abysmal. Wen Yining was ridiculed by her students for making faces and sticking out their tongues, which ignited her competitive spirit, and she gradually began to take things seriously.
As Wen Yining wiped her sweat, panting, she glanced around and suddenly saw Li Changjing emerge from the sliding glass door on the first floor and quietly watching the two play games.
The score gradually narrowed to match point, and Liu Hengheng became anxious. Her eyes glanced at the pool behind Wen Yining. Because of that pool, Wen Yining never went in that direction, and she never tried her best to block the ball that was kicked over there.
Liu Hengheng's eyes darted around, and he kicked the ball closer to the center line. Then he kicked it hard towards the edge of the pool, sending the ball flying. In her haste, Wen Yining forgot about the pool and lunged to defend. She managed to grab the ball, but lost her footing and fell uncontrollably to the side.
In the chaos, she felt her calf hit something, followed by a dizzying spin. With a "plop," she fell headfirst into the lake while still holding the ball. Instantly, she felt the stinging sensation of water entering her nose and a feeling of suffocation. At the same time, immense pressure squeezed her eardrums and the oxygen in her chest from all directions.
The pool is very deep!
She can't swim!
Wen Yining instinctively struggled, but before she could panic, she felt someone swimming towards her. Then, someone grabbed her waist and forcefully pulled her into their arms, where she immediately pressed against a firm, warm chest.
Instinctively, she tightly hugged the person's neck with both hands, rested her chin on his shoulder, wiped the water off her face, gasped for breath, and then started coughing wildly, as if she wanted to cough up her lungs.
She heard herself coughing wildly and breathing rapidly, and felt the person carrying her slowly but quickly towards the shore. Then she was picked up and carried into the house.
She could still hear the bodyguards talking, and Liu Hengheng's voice shouting in a panic.
Chaos erupted.
Chaos reigned.
She finally caught her breath and had a moment to process the situation. Suddenly, the person next to her tilted their head slightly to the side.
This action was like a switch, bringing Wen Yining back to her senses. Subconsciously, she turned her head as well. In a flash, her lips brushed against something slippery, wet, soft yet firm.
Both of them were startled, and the person holding her paused almost imperceptibly for a moment.
"..."
Wen Yining nestled stiffly in his arms, her arms around him so stiff they felt like they weren't even her own anymore.
In my line of sight, right up close, are black hair, a full back of the head, slightly damp ends, and a section of neck with skin as white as a girl's.
Yes, she accidentally kissed his neck just now...
And the person holding her tightly was... Li Changjing...
Wen Yining's face and ears turned bright red. She gently shifted her upper body back to avoid touching him, her eyes darting away frantically, unable to look at him. "Um, cough cough cough, put me down, put me down, I can walk by myself, cough cough cough!"
Li Changjing ignored her completely, showing no intention of putting her down. He quickly carried her up the stairs to the second floor, calmly and methodically instructing the bodyguards, "Call Dr. Xie and ask him to come over immediately."
"I cough cough, I don't need a doctor!" Wen Yining was afraid of troubling others too much, so she quickly tried to stop him.
Li Changjing's attitude was firm and left no room for doubt: "Contact the property manager again and ask someone to come over quickly. No males, please."
Li Changjing looked rather thin, but he held her very firmly. The two of them were pressed together, wet and sticky. His warmth and touch were clearly transmitted through their clothes. As if surrounded by his breath, Wen Yining didn't struggle at all, and even her breathing became soft.
The bodyguard walked ahead, opened the door, but didn't go in.
Li Changjing strode in. The blankets on the bed were neatly laid out, so he could only put her on the blankets first.
As Wen Yining left his embrace, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, huddled together, and lowered her eyes, not daring to look at him. She covered her chest with one arm and immediately pulled the blanket over herself with the other. Before she could see clearly, she grabbed Li Changjing's hand. She quickly let go as if she had been burned, and her already burning face became even hotter. She hugged her chest tightly with both hands.
Thankfully, I was wearing dark-colored clothes today, so even though they were soaked, I couldn't see anything.
Li Changjing, who had been avoiding looking at her, finally glanced down at her. He saw her jet-black hair plastered to her neck, her skin as clean as snow, and how her tall figure now appeared as a tiny ball huddled together.
He stood, she sat, their soaked clothes clinging tightly to their bodies, and as she squeezed her arms, a portion of her snow-white, delicate, rounded breasts was revealed at the neckline.
But she remained oblivious and hugged him even tighter, thinking that this would cover her up.
Footsteps sounded behind her. Li Changjing reached out and wrapped the blanket around her, covering her up completely, leaving only her lowered head showing.
The bodyguard brought over a bathrobe, unfolded it to put it on him, and then very tactfully withdrew. Li Changjing looked down at Wen Yining, tying the belt of the bathrobe as he finished. He wanted to say something, but when he saw her burning red ears, he paused, looked away, and turned to walk out.
The bodyguard was waiting at the door. As he went out, he followed behind him and said, "Dr. Xie is on his way. Yue Feng has already gone to the property management office to look for him."
Li Changjing hummed in agreement and listened to his report. As he walked, he suddenly remembered something, raised his hand to touch his neck, lowered his hand, and tilted his head to smile.
*
The door closed, leaving her alone in the room. Wen Yining let out a sigh of relief, sat on the bed, trembling all over, wrapped in the blanket, and her chaotic mind finally began to process the current situation.
She had always been reliable and almost never made a mistake since she was a child. She really couldn't accept that she had fallen into the water at her employer's house during work hours, and then was pulled out of the water by her employer, who was soaking wet. Moreover, that person was Li Changjing.
"..."
Help……
How did things turn out so dramatically? This isn't a movie...
Suddenly, Wen Yining remembered something and belatedly realized that Li Changjing had turned his head just now because she had been breathing too loudly in his ear.
"..."
Wen Yining closed her eyes, utterly despairing, and buried herself in the blankets.
Moreover, the house is full of men, there are no women, and she is now completely soaked.
Actually, she could call her roommate to bring it... wait, her phone! Wen Yining was startled, then breathed a sigh of relief when she realized her phone was in her room, and began to think about what to do.
"Knock knock knock!"
There was a knock at the door.
The person outside didn't open the door, but Li Changjing's voice rang out, "Ningning."
After a long while, Wen Yining sniffed and gave a listless "hmm".
Li Changjing's voice was calm and composed, showing no sign of embarrassment: "Go take a shower first and dry your hair. I'll arrange for someone to come over later."
Wen Yining glanced at the restroom.
Although she didn't know what he would arrange, she couldn't rely on herself in this situation. Wen Yining shakily put down the blanket and got out of bed to take a shower.
The bathroom is fully equipped with shower gel and a hair dryer.
After she finished washing up and washing her clothes with shower gel, she was wrapped in a bathrobe and looking at her clothes with a worried expression when there was a knock on the door.
A strange female voice rang out from outside the door, "Hello, Miss Wen."
Wen Yining wrapped herself tightly in her bathrobe and opened the door. A capable-looking woman in professional attire stood outside. She perfectly solved Wen Yining's problem of wet clothes. Blushing and enduring her embarrassment, Wen Yining gave all her clothes to the woman and asked her to take them downstairs to dry.
Wen Yining wasn't wearing anything underneath, so she could only sit in the room wrapped tightly in a bathrobe, like a well-behaved little chick, not daring to move.
She had initially thought his plan was to buy her a new outfit, and she had even mentally calculated her bank balance and how to bring up the awkward topic of money with him. Fortunately, he didn't do that.
A doctor came over and took her temperature. She was in good health and didn't have a fever, but he still prescribed her a few boxes of medicine just in case.
The doctor then asked, "When did your period start?"
About two weeks ago.
"Then take care to keep warm recently and drink more brown sugar ginger tea."
Wen Yining nodded, not taking it to heart: "Thank you, doctor."
Throughout the entire process, Li Changjing considerately remained out of the picture, which greatly alleviated her embarrassment.
I can't help but sigh again, no wonder he grew up in that kind of environment. If Li Changjing were willing, it would be very comfortable to be around him.
After all that delay, it was almost 7 o'clock by the time she finished getting ready, and she couldn't attend class.
She opened the door, and the second floor was empty. She took out her phone to send a message to Li Changjing to let him know that she was going back to school.
As soon as she went downstairs, Liu Hengheng ran out of the room, as if he had been waiting for her. The little boy was terrified and kept talking to her over and over again.
It was all her fault, Wen Yining said, feeling a little guilty. She patted his head and gently comforted him for a while, when suddenly she heard footsteps coming from the stairs.
Li Changjing changed his clothes, descended the stairs from the second floor, raised his chin, and said, "Let's go."
Liu Hengheng immediately stopped pouting and acting cute, and stood up properly like a little adult.
The moment Wen Yining saw Li Changjing, the image of her hugging his neck involuntarily flashed into her mind. She quickly looked away, not daring to look at him at all. The word "囧" was not enough to describe her current feelings.
But he acted very naturally, as if nothing had happened.
Li Changjing was walking towards the door when he heard these words. He suddenly stopped, turned around, and glanced at her.
When Wen Yining met his gaze, her heart skipped a beat, she stopped in her tracks, and the rest of her words instantly caught in her throat.
Li Changjing's features were actually quite sharp, but he usually maintained that image with his refined smile. Once his face darkened, he looked extremely cold, and the pressure emanating from him was so strong that she didn't even dare to look him in the eye.
When Wen Yining first saw Li Changjing's expression, she pretended to be calm, but she was actually a little frightened.
She obediently followed him into the car, and remained quietly huddled in the back seat for a long time without making a sound.
Halfway there, Li Changjing's phone rang. He took it out, glanced at the caller ID, and knocked on the car window. The bodyguard in the driver's seat understood and slowed down, seemingly looking for a place to park.
Wen Yining sat up straight, placed her hand on the doorknob, and looked out the window, ready to open the door and get out of the car at any moment.
As the car came to a stop, she turned on the handle and was about to get up when her shoulder was suddenly pressed down.
Confused, she turned her head. Li Changjing placed one hand on her shoulder, held his phone in the other, and looked down at the screen without saying a word or looking at her.
The bodyguard opened the car door from the outside. He casually slid the answer button, released her shoulder, and turned to get out of the car.
Wen Yining sat in the car and watched Li Changjing walk under the tree to answer the phone, and paused for a moment.
The road was quiet with few vehicles. It was already getting dark, and the lush trees blocked the light from the streetlights, making the area under the trees look dim and serene.
Li Changjing stood tall and elegant under a tree by the roadside, answering a phone call, while his bodyguard stood quietly three meters away from him.
Perhaps out of boredom, Wen Yining inexplicably turned her head and stared at Li Changjing for a long time.
He was on the phone with someone, looking quite polite. He casually took out a metal lighter from his pocket, twirled it between his fingers a few times, then opened the cap, and a faint blue flame shot out with a "whoosh," only to be extinguished by closing the cap again. He repeated this several times.
As he spoke, he chuckled, turned to look at his bodyguard, then took a cigarette from the pack that was handed to him, put it in his mouth, lit it, and the thin flame danced on his delicate features.
As he put down the lighter and looked up, he seemed to sense something and glanced at her.
"!"
Wen Yining quickly looked away and tucked her head into her neck as if she had done something wrong. Then she suddenly realized that Li Changjing's car was soundproof and lightproof. You could see clearly from the inside to the outside, but you couldn't see anything from the outside to the inside through the car window.
And why should she feel guilty?
