Her crying stopped, and so did her tears. The only thing that remained was the occasional sniffle.
Su Zhinian's hand finally moved away from her face. He hugged her waist with one hand and held her face with the other. Then, he lowered his head to press his forehead against hers and said in a soft, negotiating tone, "We've stayed in the bathroom for a long time already, and we're going to catch a cold if we stay any longer. So, how about I help you take a bath and carry you out?"
His voice was low, but it was laced with gentleness and care. Through the sound of running water, it caused Song Qingchun's heart to soften, and her eyes to redden again.
Su Zhinian's palm caressed her soft cheeks, and he asked softly, "Why are you crying again? Don't cry, okay? "
Song Qingchun's tears started to fall as he said those words.
Su Zhinian raised his hand to wipe away her tears. "Don't cry, be a good girl … If you continue to cry, your eyes will start to swell … Don't cry, okay?"
Song Qingchun finally reacted to what he said. She nodded slightly but didn't say anything. She held back the tears in her eyes and buried her head into his chest. She reached out to hug him around the waist.
Even though she wasn't violated by that man, the feeling of him tearing her clothes apart and licking her skin was like a nightmare. It kept haunting her mind, and it made her feel incredibly uncomfortable.
She had really been scared out of her wits that night. In fact, at the height of her despair, she even considered biting off her tongue to kill herself.
Even now, even though she had escaped from that disgusting place, her heart was still filled with anxiety and fear. She was so afraid that she couldn't care less about how much pain and resentment Su Zhinian had caused her. All she wanted now was to find a hug to lean on, to soothe the fear in her heart.
As Su Zhinian read the thoughts in her mind, his heart squeezed, and the pain was unbearable.
His handsome face was filled with heartache.
At this moment, he was just like her. He didn't care that he was carrying a secret that no one else knew about, that he couldn't be too close to her, that he couldn't be too nice to her, and that he couldn't care how cruel he had been to force her away from him. He didn't care about anything else. He just wanted to give her, who was scared out of her wits, some warmth, some comfort.
The two of them hugged each other in the bathroom for who knew how long. It was not until Su Zhinian's phone rang that Song Qingchun moved her head away from Su Zhinian's chest.
Su Zhinian circled her waist with one arm and pulled out his phone with the other. He glanced at the name 'Cheng Qingchong' on the screen before answering it.
"Chairman Su, the shareholders of Majestic Clubhouse and Lawyer Zhang have arrived. They are waiting outside the Peony Pavilion. May I ask when the shareholders' meeting will be held?"
"Wait." Su Zhinian only said two words before moving the phone away from his ear, like he was going to hang up.
"What about Doctor Xia? He is also waiting outside the door. Do you want to go in? "
Before Su Zhinian hung up, he heard Cheng Qingchong's question. He paused for a moment before saying, "Wait for my news" into the phone before hanging up.
