She had only slept on the sofa for two nights, but he could clearly remember the pitiful state she had curled up on the sofa, covered by a thin blanket, and her slender body shivering slightly.
As the image appeared in Qin Yinan's mind, he could see Cheng Qingchong curled up into a ball on the sofa.
Without him realizing it, he slowly walked to the sofa, squatted down on the cold floor, and reached out to touch the sofa.
His fingertips fell on empty air.
Qin Yinan's brows furrowed. Only then did he realize that the sofa was empty. There was no one there. It was just an illusion.
Qin Yinan froze to the spot like his pressure points had been poked. It was not until he felt a burning pain on his fingertips that he snapped back to reality. He put out the cigarette that had reached its end in the ashtray beside him and slowly stood up. Moving his legs that were sore from squatting for too long, he walked to the balcony.
There was still some time before dawn, but Qin Yinan didn't feel sleepy at all. Like a statue, he stood on the balcony in the darkness until the eastern sky started to brighten.
"Qingchong! Qingchong! "
Qin Yinan sat up in bed, and his face blanched as he gripped the mattress. He gasped for air for a long time before he pulled the cover off and walked into the bathroom.
He turned on the faucet and splashed cold water on his face. The coldness caused his racing heart to slow down.
This was already the third night.
After Mrs. Cheng left, Cheng Qingchong left as well. From that night onwards, that "Can you forgive me?" was like a curse. It was like a curse. Almost every night, he would dream of the sound of her crying into his ear and repeating this sentence.
The first night, after he was woken up, he stood on the balcony for most of the night.
The previous night, after he was woken up, he went to Eldorado to play cards with his friends.
That night … he, who hadn't had a good night's rest for days, was exhausted, but he was tormented by her until he couldn't get a good night's sleep.
Qin Yinan sighed, turned off the faucet, and went to the study.
He opened the file and immersed himself in his work. His brain continued to work, and he wasn't affected by her.
Time passed by slowly. Other than the sound of Qin Yinan typing on the keyboard and flipping through the documents, there was no other sound in the room.
After who knew how long, Qin Yinan opened his mouth out of habit. "Qingchong? Qingchong? "
"Are you busy? If you're not busy, help me organize this document … Qingchong … "
Qin Yinan had just raised his voice to this point when he suddenly stopped. His grip on the document tightened.
Qingchong, is he calling Cheng Qingchong?
That woman was no longer in his house, was she?
Qin Yinan slowly tossed the document onto the table and leaned back in his chair. His gaze involuntarily drifted to the round sofa not far away. The floor lamp was still on, and the sofa was empty. No matter how hard he looked, the girl who was curled up on the sofa, reading the document with a serious expression on her face, had disappeared.
When Qin Yinan pulled his gaze away from the round sofa, his eyes were exceptionally red. He lowered his head and stared at the table for a moment. Then he stood up, returned to the bedroom, changed, grabbed his documents, and went to work.
