Looking at her reddened eyes, Qin Fangang couldn't bear to see her cry. Just like what she had said earlier — he might be suffering physically, but she was suffering emotionally.
Qin Fangang reached out and pulled her into his embrace. He cupped her cheeks with both hands. Feeling that her body was still trembling, he leaned over slightly and pressed his forehead against hers. He took a deep breath and adjusted himself before he opened his mouth. His voice was strangely hoarse. "Sorry, I wasn't considerate enough. Don't cry, okay? My heart aches when you're like this. "
"…"
Xin Yu felt a lump in her throat. She didn't know why, but when she heard Qin Fangang say "my heart aches", she finally couldn't hold it in anymore. She bit her lip tightly and tears rolled down her cheeks silently.
Qin Fangang's heart sank. The desire he had before was now gone. It was really the first time he had to take a woman's feelings into consideration. It was also the first time he had to face a woman who cried silently in his arms. He was a man who could control everything well, but at this moment, he was obviously a little flustered.
"… Xin Yu? Don't cry … Okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have wanted you regardless of the occasion. I'll be more careful in the future. Don't cry, okay? "
The way she cried so fiercely made it seem like she was spurned by the whole world. His heart also felt like it had been hit by a hard object, and it was dull and painful.
He suppressed his desire to sigh and comforted her with a comforting voice, "Okay, don't cry. I'll apologize to you."
"…"
"… Don't torment me like this anymore. I feel guilty when you cry like this. It's as if I've bullied you."
Qin Fangang raised his hand and helped her wipe her tears. Helplessly, he said dotingly. The expensive shirt on his body had already been wrinkled by her, so he simply used his sleeve to wipe her tears. However, the more he wiped, the more tears fell. The man's two sword-like eyebrows were tightly knitted. He had no experience in coaxing people, and had never coaxed anyone. However, now that he saw her crying in front of him, his heart ached. His mind was churning as he tried to find all kinds of suitable words.
"You've bullied me to begin with!"
Xin Yu choked and clenched her fists. Suddenly, she placed them on Qin Fangang's chest and sobbed. She wanted to say something through clenched teeth, but her voice was soft. "… Qin Fangang, I hate you!"
Qin Fangang: "…"
"That's not bullying you."
He reached out to massage his temples and explained with some difficulty, "That's called 'doting on you'."
"…"
"Okay, don't cry. I know you were frightened just now. I won't touch you, okay?"
Qin Fangang reached out his large palm and wrapped it around her little hand that was clenched into a fist. His thumb slowly stroked the back of her hand and his voice was unprecedentedly gentle. "Do you still remember the question I asked you before? What does it mean when a man has lust for a woman? Xin Yu, you're not stupid at all. You know very well in your heart, don't you? "
Xinyu lowered her eyes, the man's deep voice was close to her ear. When he spoke, the familiar and domineering masculine aura hit her in the face. His words had a hint of coaxing, but it also seemed like he was trying to get on her good side and explain things to her.
But who was Qin Fangang? Such an insufferably arrogant man was crying because of her. He kept telling her, "Don't cry. If you cry, my heart will ache."
This subtle feeling made Xin Yu's heart tremble violently.
She had never felt that she was a lucky person. Even if to outsiders, she seemed to have everything. Although she was born into an ordinary family, she was able to marry into a wealthy family and become a phoenix.
How many women dreamed of having such a life?
But no one knew how hard it was for a woman like her to guard a marriage that was equivalent to "death".
Once she entered a wealthy family, it was as if she was treading on thin ice for five years in the Lu family. She had really thought that she would persevere for the rest of her life. She didn't need happiness, didn't need other people's consideration, didn't need her husband's love, and didn't need anything. She only needed to guard her crazy father and do what she should do. Just like that, for the rest of her life.
However, all of this was quietly changing.
She knew that all these changes were because of the appearance of "Qin Fangang".
But wasn't their meeting, their entanglement, a shameful mistake?
Why was it that every word he said to her lingered in her heart countless times, making her ponder over it again and again? She had never taken a man's words to heart like this before. Every word, including when he spoke, whether it was in high spirits, or deep and reserved, or even when his expression was cold, she remembered it all clearly.
Why was it that this man, who had clearly made a mistake in her heart, had already wormed his way into her heart? His image was perfect and dazzling.
…
Her cell phone suddenly rang. The crisp ringtone broke the ambiguous atmosphere in the room.
Xin Yu snapped out of her daze and realized that her cell phone was ringing. However, she placed it at the entrance. She struggled out of Qin Fangang's embrace. Her eyes were still lowered, but she reached out to touch her cheek and said softly, "… It's my phone."
"Oh, it's outside."
Xin Yu hesitated for a moment before she turned around and walked to the entrance. Her cell phone was placed on the counter. The name displayed on the screen was — — Lu Yihan.
Xin Yu frowned. When she heard steady footsteps behind her, she almost instinctively turned off her cell phone and put it in her pocket.
Qin Fangang saw her hurriedly put her cell phone away. He frowned and asked, "Who's calling?"
"…"
Xin Yu pursed her lips. Of course, she wasn't going to tell him. But when she saw the inquisitive look on his face, she didn't know if there was something wrong with her. After a moment, she actually instinctively lied to him. "… It's from Chenchen."
"Why aren't you answering?"
"… It's not convenient. I'm going out."
She turned around and was about to leave when Qin Fangang strode forward and reached out to grab her wrist. "Aren't you afraid that there's someone outside? You can sleep here tonight. " He inched closer to her and forced her against the door. His voice deepened as he said, "… I promise I won't touch you. I'll hug you to sleep, okay?"
"…"
Xin Yu's heart suddenly raced. She didn't dare to look into his deep eyes. There seemed to be some anticipation in his gaze. She didn't know why, but she really didn't want to see him disappointed. But how could she spend the night in his room?
In the end, reason prevailed. She reached out and pushed the man away. She shook her head and said in a low voice, "… No, I still have to look for my father."
Qin Fangang looked a little displeased. "You're going to see him like this?"
"… He said that he wanted to talk to me about my father. I haven't seen my father in a long time, so I have to look for him."
About Leng Dongming?
Qin Fangang muttered to himself for a moment. He could roughly guess that this woman would definitely not give in when it came to Leng Dongming. After weighing the pros and cons, he naturally wouldn't force her too much. However, he had a feeling that his heart would feel empty if he just let her go like this. The man opened his arms and trapped her within the door and his sphere of influence. He curved his lips into a devilish smile. "I seem to be at a disadvantage tonight. I wanted to do it twice, but I was interrupted halfway. Actually, it's very harmful to my body. I'll have to deal with it myself later —"
Qin Fangang's slender fingers lifted Xin Yu's chin. His long and narrow eyes narrowed slightly. "So, I'll let you off tonight. Shouldn't you find some time to make it up to me, hm?"
"…"
"Look at me and answer me before you leave."
Xin Yu's eyes darted around. "… Qin Fangang, don't be like this. I really have to leave. It's already very late …"
"If you don't tell me, I don't mind keeping you until later."
"…"
"Xin Yu?"
Xin Yu really had a splitting headache. She was anxious to see Lu Shiyun now. Qin Fangang was pressuring her step by step. She just wanted to get away as soon as possible. She said casually, "… Next time."
Qin Fangang's eyes flashed. His burning gaze was fixed on the shy woman in his arms. "Next time, really? You're willing to give it to me, hm? "
"…"
Xin Yu's little face was already unbelievably red. Qin Fangang's scorching hot breath just had to spray on her sensitive neck. The man's sexy thin lips opened and closed, and the words that came out of his mouth made her heart palpitate. She had never been a dull person, but in front of him, she was always at a loss for words and did not know how to continue the conversation.
"Promise me and I'll let you go."
Qin Fangang's fingers slowly stroked her smooth chin. His deep voice was clearly coaxing.
Xin Yu almost couldn't take this kind of domineering and somewhat devilish male aura. Her mind was in a mess. She just wanted to leave as soon as possible, so she nodded carelessly. She turned around, hurriedly opened the door, and practically fled.
…
Qin Fangang knew that there was no one outside. Of course, Lu Shiyun would not be waiting outside. And even if there was someone outside, he was not worried at all.
Xin Yu left Qin Fangang's room and returned to her own. She washed her face in the bathroom to make herself look more normal. Only then did she go to look for Lu Shiyun. Unexpectedly, the butler who had been taking care of Lu Shiyun told her that Old Master was already resting. He said that there were no problems with her father's side, but he still had to complete a treatment. In about two to three days, he could see him.
Xin Yu thought for a moment and asked, "How's my father recently?"
"I'm not sure about that, but I occasionally hear Old Master talking on the phone. Young Mistress, don't worry, your father is fine. When his emotions are unstable, he always needs to think of countermeasures. Don't think too much."
Xinyu had a strange feeling in her heart. She had a strange feeling that what her father said to her that day was not a coincidence. His stuttering was so clear, even his thoughts were emotional. What happened five years ago, there were some details that even she had forgotten, but her father remembered it clearly. However, every time he would suddenly go crazy, it did not seem like it was for no reason. It should be because her words had touched a sensitive spot of his, causing him to be like this ….
