Half an hour later.
Shen Zhiyi stared at the swaying light above her head, bit her fingertip lightly, and suppressed the unbearable moans rising in her throat.
Li Yunqian pulled her hand away.
"Why hold back?" He took her fingertips in his hand and kissed them. "I like hearing you hum."
Shen Zhiyi's neck turned red with embarrassment.
She turned her head away and bit her lip hard.
She was somewhat dazed.
Things that I once thought I could never accept have now become perfectly compatible.
Its presence is still quite noticeable.
The aching sensation brought tears to her eyes, but she still endured it without uttering a sound.
Li Yunqian raised his eyebrows and suddenly exerted force.
Shen Zhiyi cried out in pain, caught off guard.
"That's a good girl." Li Yunqian leaned down and kissed her ear lightly.
He held her hand and placed it on his shoulder, saying leisurely, "Won't the kitten scratch me today?"
Shen Zhiyi's red lips were slightly parted, and her eyes shimmered with light.
"abnormal……"
She hummed softly.
Li Yunqian smiled, his eyes sparkling with joy. "Yes, thank you for the compliment."
Shen Zhiyi: ...
Li Yunqian touched her face, caressing and kissing her gently, yet his fierceness pushed her reason to the brink of collapse.
Demolish and rebuild again and again.
His tall figure, like the dawn rising above the ruins, blazed over her.
Shen Zhiyi stared blankly at his fierce brows and eyes, catching a glimpse of the ocean-like tenderness within his most ruthless expression.
She watched as he and she both succumbed to it.
His sharp eyebrows were tinged with darkness, and his eyes were pitch black and thick, like an invisible hand covering her.
His expression, however, was sexy and lost in ecstasy.
Shen Zhiyi could clearly hear her own heartbeat.
She seems to have... fallen in love with him.
This is terrible.
She closed her eyes, and fragments of their time together flashed through her mind.
He helped her out of the predicament and led her away from the paparazzi and haters;
He held an umbrella for her in the rain;
When she was exhausted from rushing to her event, he took off his suit jacket and covered her from head to toe, held her in his arms, and told her that she didn't have to be perfect all the time and that she could lean on him casually.
After the red carpet event, he carried her home, helped her take off her high heels, soaked her feet, and then gently massaged them for her.
He was incredibly generous to her; whatever she asked for, he would give it to her without her even having to ask...
He did so many things for her.
But he had clearly told her all of that; it had nothing to do with love, it was just the care that should be given to a sugar daddy.
It's about being bound by a contract of interests, a reasonable form of concern.
But she fell into this trap.
Shen Zhiyi lifted her misty eyes and asked him in a very soft voice, "Li Yunqian, will you get married?"
Li Yunqian stopped moving.
He looked down at the sweat-drenched person beneath him and said in a deep voice, "What do you mean?"
Shen Zhiyi bit her lip.
"You're not getting any younger. Haven't you thought about finding someone you love to marry and spend the rest of your life with?"
"Are we going to live this absurd life forever?"
Li Yunqian was stunned for a moment.
I almost laughed out of anger.
absurd?
He gripped her wrist, raised it above her head, and held it firmly in place. His cold eyes stared at her intently as he said through gritted teeth, “It is quite absurd, Shen Zhiyi.”
They dared to pressure him into marriage.
You heartless bastard.
He pressed hard, forcing tears from her eyes. "And what about you? Why don't you get married?"
Shen Zhiyi trembled twice, and after regaining her senses, she breathed slightly and avoided his gaze.
"I want to build my career."
"Besides... there's no suitable candidate."
Li Yunqian's fingers stiffened slightly, then slowly tightened, letting out a short, sharp laugh.
"You're quite ambitious."
"Didn't you teach me that?" Shen Zhiyi turned her head and met his sinister gaze. She felt a shiver run down her spine for no reason and said softly, "You said not to waste time on romance and to focus on your career."
"You also said that anyone who gets close to me will hinder my career, and I cannot agree to their requests."
"Isn't this all what you taught me..." she muttered.
"You've learned everything I taught you?" He looked down at her, his expression calm, but a terrible storm was brewing in his eyes, as if it would come crashing down like a tidal wave at any moment and destroy the delicate flower.
"Let's recall this first."
He scooped her up, half-embracing her in his arms, and bit her lips in a vengeful manner, saying in a cold and harsh voice, "It's your turn to please me, little kitten."
Shen Zhiyi whimpered and leaned on his shoulder...
the next day.
When Shen Zhiyi woke up, the bag she had her eye on last night was on the bedside table.
Li Yunqian is not here.
She picked up the bag and gently stroked the texture on it.
It is the most expensive crocodile skin.
He can deliver things that others can't even order with huge sums of money with just one phone call.
Shen Zhiyi vaguely recalled what he had told her last night—that he, like her, didn't like romantic love and therefore had no plans to get married.
Her heart sank.
It's time to break up.
Otherwise, you'll find yourself increasingly dependent on him in the future.
She didn't want to be the one who was the first to say "I love you" to him, only to be met with coldness and rejection.
That would be too embarrassing.
She still values her self-esteem more.
Shen Zhiyi sighed, put down her bag, and walked out of the master bedroom.
study.
Li Yunqian was wearing headphones and in a video conference.
The computer screen is divided into three sections.
Besides himself, there was his most trusted assistant Chen Qi and his partner Song Ruizhe.
“President Li, we’ve investigated everything. It was Sun Xingkui who was behind it all,” Chen Qi said. “He thought we were being kept in the dark and was quite pleased with himself.”
