She didn't know when that slender figure had appeared by the side of the sliding door. The man who had just been called out had both hands in his trouser pockets. His exquisite features and expression were hard to read as his long and narrow eyes stared unblinkingly at the woman on the balcony.
"..."
Xin Yu's heart trembled as she felt guilty. She knew that she was lying through her teeth in front of Qin Fangang. She wasn't good at lying to begin with. Now that this man was looking at her with such a meaningful gaze, she lost all her courage.
On the other end, Lu Yihan saw that Leng Xinyu didn't continue speaking halfway. She didn't know what she was thinking, but for a moment, even her tone changed. "Leng Xinyu, I'm still your husband now. So if I ask you to come over to see me, come over — "
"I don't have time." Xin Yu pursed her lips and calmly interrupted Lu Yihan. She took a deep breath and said somewhat anxiously, "That's all. If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up."
She didn't wait for Lu Yihan to say anything else and immediately ended the call.
"... When did you come back?" Instinctively, she put the phone behind her back and glanced at Qin Fangang. Her body instinctively took two steps back.
Qin Fangang's brows didn't move, but his long legs strode over to the balcony. Behind him was the sliding door. He reached out a hand and curled his long fingers slightly to close the door.
With a "swoosh", the sliding door was closed. The curtains behind the door were drawn as well, blocking out the lights in the room. Xin Yu's face flushed as though she realized that he was about to do something. Her heart thumped wildly as she watched the man's tall and muscular body approach her. She retreated even further with a face full of vigilance. "... Qin Fangang, what are you doing?"
"Verifying it."
The balcony was only so big to begin with. No matter how much Xin Yu retreated, she couldn't escape from Qin Fangang's grasp. Looking at her panicked and guilty expression, his interest was completely aroused. His thin lips slowly curved as he reached out and scooped her into his embrace. With one hand on her slender waist, he pushed her onto the railing of the balcony. His tall body pressed against hers and their breaths instantly intertwined.
Xin Yu wanted to lean back, but Qin Fangang reached out and held the back of her head. "You still want to escape? Where are you going? There's no way out. "
"..."
"Xin Yu't, are you sure that there's nothing between us?"
"... Can't you speak properly? Let go of me first.
"I have already said that I want to verify it. You haven't even verified it, yet you are letting go?" .'s's's's's,'s's's's's's's's's's's's's
"Mm …"
Xin Yu struggled, as if she had already expected him to kiss her like this. Her heart was already in her throat, but there was no way to retreat or avoid it. In the end, when his's's' 'kiss landed, her body trembled and she actually felt a sense of belonging.
…
This feeling was too subtle.
— — It was just like when she secretly ate candy when she was young. Her parents had said that she shouldn't eat candy when she was teething because it would cause tooth decay in the future. If that happened, it would be very painful. Toothache wasn't an illness, but the pain could be fatal. However, the sweet and greasy taste of candy had a fatal attraction for a 4 or 5 year old child. Hence, she couldn't help but secretly eat it when no one was looking. That feeling of holding it in her mouth, she clearly knew that she shouldn't and couldn't. She clearly knew that this moment of sweetness would be exchanged for thousands of times more pain in the future, but she still couldn't bear to give it up.
It was because it was too sweet. When the sweetness reached her heart, she felt as if her whole body was warm.
… (Indescribable) …
"I don't know what you're talking about. Can you let go of me? Don't be like this … "
Qin Fangang furrowed his brows. "Make you feel uncomfortable?"
"Yes, I feel uncomfortable!"
"Tell me the reason."
He didn't let go of her at all. Instead, he pressed his thumb against the corner of her lips even more forcefully. Her lips were a little red and swollen from his passionate kiss earlier. When she spoke, her lips opened and closed, making her look even more seductive.
Xin Yu struggled for a while, but she couldn't break free. She had already accepted her fate. When she thought of Auntie Bao in the apartment behind the sliding door, and how Auntie Bao had reminded her in such a vague way not long ago, Xin Yu felt very uncomfortable. She opened her mouth subconsciously, but the words that came out of her mouth were obviously too emotional.
"Reason? What reason do you think it is? Did you do it on purpose or not? You put me in such a situation. When you turn around, no one will say anything about you, but those words are directed at me. It's as if I'm the one who seduced you. I clearly didn't! "
She felt a little wronged, but she couldn't control the words that came out of her mouth. "… I don't want to live like this. Qin Fangang, let go of me."
Her eyes were red, and her long eyelashes drooped down, concealing too many emotions in her eyes.
The expression on Qin Fangang's face seemed to have also followed suit. He furrowed his brows, and the strength that was originally tightly gripping her loosened a little. His slender body also took a step back, but his deep eyes, unblinkingly stared at her awkward and aggrieved little face.
He reached out and lifted her chin. Sure enough, he saw that her eyes were filled with tears.
Xin Yu was a little embarrassed. She frowned and tried to push his hand away. Qin Fangang asked in a deep voice, "What did someone say to you?"
After a pause, he seemed to have thought of something. His sharp eyebrows furrowed even more. "Auntie Bao?"
"… No." Of course, she wouldn't say anything else. Now, she was a little regretful that she shouldn't have said those words to him.
No matter what their relationship was, it was fine. In fact, she had always thought that she could run away from him. Those people could say anything to her vaguely, and it wouldn't be considered as being overbearing, right?
Because it was indeed inappropriate for them to be together.
Feeling embarrassed, Xin Yu stiffly turned her face away. Qin Fangang's fingers were empty. His fingers moved a little and then fell down. He pursed his lips and took out a cigarette from his pocket. He lit it up and stood aside. After taking two puffs, he said, "I'm sorry. I didn't think it through. Previously, I only thought that you would need someone to take care of you, so I asked Auntie Bao to come over. She's one of the aunties I trust, but I didn't expect you to feel awkward. "
"…"
When he said that, Xin Yu didn't know what else she could say.
It was as if she was a child who had been wronged by someone else, and he was calmly comforting her and even apologizing to her. She had mixed feelings in her heart.
"Young Master, Lady Lu, dinner is ready. Do you want to eat now?"
Auntie Bao happened to call out from inside. "Young Madam Lu", the four words made Xinyu's heart ache. She bit her lip and didn't say anything. She opened the door and walked in.
The atmosphere at the dining table was a little stiff.
After Auntie Bao served the dishes, she went into the kitchen. Qin Fangang didn't come in. Xin Yu sat alone in the dining room. Facing the table full of dishes, she held a pair of chopsticks in her hand but couldn't bring herself to eat.
Originally, when she lived here, she didn't feel uncomfortable living under someone else's roof. However, when Auntie Bao appeared and reminded her of her identity from time to time, she finally realized how shameful this kind of morality was in the eyes of others.
After a few minutes, Qin Fangang pushed the door open and came in. His handsome face had a gloomy expression. He must have just finished smoking. There was a very faint tobacco smell on his body. Mixed with his masculine scent, it didn't make people feel uncomfortable. Instead, it made people feel bewitched.
Qin Fangang sat opposite Xin Yu. When Auntie Bao saw him coming in, she hurriedly came out with a bowl of soup.
"Young Master, you haven't had this for a long time, right? Come, try it. I specially made it today. "
As she spoke, she took a small bowl and filled it with soup for Qin Fangang.
Xin Yu sat opposite him and felt even more awkward. She didn't know why, but Auntie Bao said that she was a servant, but now, she looked more like Qin Fangang's relative. With her identity, sitting opposite him, she felt like a prisoner. It was an indescribable feeling.
After casually eating two mouthfuls of rice, Xin Yu put down her chopsticks. Then, she heard Auntie Bao say, "Lady Lu, you should drink some too. This soup tastes good."
Xin Yu's throat was blocked. She knew that she didn't really hate Auntie Bao. It was just that she didn't want to change the way she addressed her as "Lady Lu," so she couldn't sit here and eat.
"It's okay." Xin Yu couldn't sit still any longer. She stood up and looked at the calm man opposite her. She took a deep breath and used the excuse she had prepared. "Qin … Big Brother, I received a call from an uncle who knows my father. We haven't seen each other for many years and he asked me to meet him today. I almost forgot about it. I think it's about time to go over. Enjoy your meal, I'll make a move first."
When she walked to the entrance of the dining room, Xin Yu said to Auntie Bao politely, "Goodbye, Auntie."
Auntie Bao was stunned for a moment.
She probably didn't expect Qin Zhi to be so polite to her. Qin Zhi 'ai wasn't a fool. Although they had only known each other for a day, every word Qin Zhi' ai said was intentionally or unintentionally reminding Qin Zhi 'ai of her identity as "Lady Lu." Of course, Qin Zhi' ai could tell that the atmosphere between Qin Zhi 'ai and the young master was a little stiff. It was mostly because of Qin Zhi' ai.
For people of her generation, breaking up a pair of mandarin ducks was very immoral.
However, this wasn't a real pair of mandarin ducks!
Auntie Bao thought that if Qin Fangang and Leng Xinyu really had something going on, then it must be an ill-fated relationship. Seeing that the two of them seemed to be in a budding state, she had to strangle them no matter how much they crossed the line!
When Xin Yu came, she didn't bring anything with her. Qin Fangang had someone specially go to the Lu family to get her phone and the bag she usually carried when she went out. So when she left, she took her handbag with her.
After leaving the condominium, Xin Yu didn't stop until the elevator door closed. She leaned against the wall of the elevator and looked at her reflection in the elevator mirror. The woman in the mirror had a pale face with a hint of panic. Her gaze was the same. Her fingers trembled as she slowly touched her cheeks.
Leng Xinyu, what are you doing?
Why do you have to force yourself to this point? You clearly know that you can't do it, but you still look at the abyss and can't pull yourself out …
She sighed softly. However, her reflection in the mirror couldn't hide the loneliness in her eyes.
It was loneliness that even she couldn't distinguish.
