Qin Shu was stunned.
The man continued to walk.
Qin Shu held the man’s hand tightly. Her heart was aching. “Don’t sleep next door. Stay here, okay?”
The man lowered his eyes and glanced at the hand that was holding his wrist. The hand was warm. it was a warmth he was familiar with. “Do you know what I want to do now?”
“… Yu,” Qin Shu called out softly.
“I’m afraid that I’ll be jealous and won’t be able to hold it in.” The man’s voice was low and hoarse as if he was suppressing his emotions. His chest heaved up and down violently as though there was a huge rock pressing down on it, making it difficult for him to breathe.
After he finished speaking, the man shook off her hand and walked out directly.
Qin Shu’s heart throbbed painfully when the man shook off her hand. The more the man acted like this, the more she couldn’t let him go.
When the man grabbed the doorknob and wanted to leave, she stretched out her arms and hugged the man’s skinny waist. “Yu, can you stay back?”
The lady’s voice was low. She was sobbing as she spoke. It caused the man’s heart to tremble as well.
When she noticed that the man was standing still quietly, Qin Shu continued to explain, “There’s really nothing between Han Xiao and me. I treat him as a friend. He only acted like that because he mistook you for someone else. The person I love is you. I want to be with you forever and that had never changed. Please believe me.”
After Qin Shu finished speaking, the bedroom remained silent for a while.
The man’s body moved. He reached out to grab the hand on his waist and turned to face her. There was a hint of tiredness in his pitch-black eyes. “Babe, aren’t you afraid that I’ll go crazy?”
Ever since he saw that she was close to another man, and the man even wanted to hug her, he couldn’t take it anymore.
The uneasiness and anxiety that came from the depth of his heart would really drive him crazy.
Qin Shu raised her head. Her gaze met the man’s deep gaze. “Don’t be afraid. I like you even when you go crazy. I like you no matter what you become. I only hope that you can believe me. Everything I said comes from the bottom of my heart. Don’t you have the recording of what I said?”
The man was a little moved after hearing the lady’s words. He stretched out his arms to hug the lady and rubbed his chin against her soft hair. He knew that he was very possessive. He couldn’t bear to see her get close to any other man.
He did not know when this possessiveness began.
When he met her again, he only had one thought. He wanted to have her entirely to himself.
The man suddenly carried her up horizontally, walked to the bedside, and put her on the bed.
Qin Shu’s heart tightened. Did the man want to continue?
“Yu, I…”
Before Qin Shu could finish her sentence, the man turned off the lights in the bedroom. The bright bedroom fell into darkness. She only felt the bed sinking as the man laid down beside her. Then, the man pulled her close to his chest with his pair of strong arms.
Qin Shu did not dare to move in the man’s arms. Smelling the man’s breath and feeling the man’s heartbeat allowed her to feel at ease.
In the dark bedroom, the man’s charismatic voice came from the top of her head.
“Babe, you hated me in the beginning, right?”
Qin Shu’s body stiffened. She was afraid in the beginning but she did not hate him. As for later on, it was only natural to hate someone that restricted her freedom, right?
“I know you’re already changing. Don’t think about the past anymore, okay? You only know how to cherish someone after experiencing all those things. Humans have to move forward. We still have a lot of time. We can slowly get used to each other and understand each other. Love at first sight may not last longer than love after a long time of interaction.”
“So, don’t worry about the past and don’t dwell on it. Let’s move forward together.”
After Qin Shu finished speaking, she waited for the man to answer.
She waited for nearly half an hour before she heard the man’s light breathing. Only then did she know that the man had fallen asleep.
In order to come to Qi Country, Fu Tingyu had hardly slept for the past two days. He was so busy with work before he managed to squeeze out time to come to the Qi Country.
Thus, when he hugged Qin Shu, he felt sleepy the moment his head touched the pillow. After saying that sentence, he fell asleep.
Qin Shu sighed. She knew that he must have stayed up late again for the sake of the Qi Country. This was also the reason why she did not want to tell him.
She did not stop Ye Luo because she did not want to hide the fact that she came to the country to settle the score with Mu Lan and her daughter.
In the end, he was still worried about her going abroad. Even if Ye Luo was with her, he was still worried and had to come personally.
The next day.
When Qin Shu woke up, she immediately saw the man’s tightly shut eyes and his thick and long eyelashes. His eyebrows were long and narrow and his features were well-defined. His exquisite facial features were the result of God’s special treatment.
Under Qin Shu’s gaze, the man’s eyelashes trembled and he slowly opened his eyes. He saw that the lady was staring at him. “Am I that good-looking?”
A good night’s sleep made him feel much better. The anger from last night had also lessened greatly, especially when he saw the lady’s focused gaze. His mood became good too.
Qin Shu smiled and nodded. “Yes, you’re really good-looking. Your eyelashes are longer than mine, your nose bridge is tall, and the shape of your lips is also pretty. Especially your brows and eyes. You have attractive and mesmerizing phoenix eyes.
The man narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly. “Then why didn’t I mesmerize you back then?”
Qin Shu was stunned.
The man said again, “Aren’t you going to give me a good morning kiss?”
“Here you go.” Qin Shu gave the man a good morning kiss.
The man was still somewhat unsatisfied. “How’s the matter going?”
Qin Shu knew that the man was referring to Mu Lan and her daughter’s matter. She had prepared enough appetizers for them. Now, she was waiting for the last step.
“Soon. We’re just waiting for An Yuanshi to bring Qin Ya to an important banquet.”
The man suddenly said, “I’m hungry.”
After the man mentioned it, Qin Shu also felt a little hungry. “Then let’s get up, wash up, and go for breakfast.”
The man called out, “Babe.”
Qin Shu looked at the man’s deep gaze. It was like the galaxy, there was no end to it.
“… Me.”
The man leaned into the girl’s ear and whispered, “… Good Babe.”
Qin Shu blushed.
–
–
Two hours later.
Qin Shu dressed neatly and sat at the table. She was eating the breakfast in front of her.
The man sitting across the table was in good spirits. He found the breakfast in front of him very appetizing.
Qin Shu looked up at a man. His eating posture was good-looking and his actions were elegant. He seemed like an entirely different person from the one in bed just now.
Ye Luo carried Boss out and walked straight to the balcony. He threw Boss onto the sofa and let it basked in the sun.
It was rare for Boss to not be angry. It laid on the sofa, exposing its stomach as it basked in the sun lazily.
After breakfast.
Fu Tingyu took out a tissue to wipe the corner of his mouth. He looked up at the person who was drinking water. “Follow me to the bedroom.”
Qin Shu put down the cup of water and looked at the man in confusion.
Fu Tingyu stood up and held her hand. Qin Shu stood up as well. The two of them walked into the room side by side.
Shi Yan walked in from the outside. When he saw Lord Yu and Qin Shu walking into the room with a loving look on their faces. A hint of confusion flashed across his eyes.
Last night was the prelude to the storm. How could it be that after one night, everything was calm and peaceful?
