When the first ray of sunlight shone in, Lin Qian opened her eyes and looked at the man in front of her.
His short black hair covered his forehead, and his eyes were deep. His nose bridge and cheekbones formed a very masculine outline.
And her favorite chin, simple and clean.
Her heart softened. She put her hand on his chest and kissed him.
As soon as her lips touched his skin, he hugged her and turned her over.
Lin Qian looked into his bright eyes. He looked down at her.
Then she read the look in his eyes and felt a change in his body.
"You want it again?" she asked in a low voice.
"Yes." He gently nudged her.
"Oh …"
In the room on the top floor of the hotel, they could see the entire Xiangjiang River from the window. This was the best season in Changsha. The early autumn wind still carried the warmth of summer. It swept through the middle of the river and the forest like a gentle hand caressing. In the end, only the mottled sunlight was left, and it was quiet and lush.
Lin Qian and Li Zhicheng were in each other's arms. Since he arrived last night, she had been sleepy this morning. Time seemed to be forgotten in this dark, far away room. Only his silhouette and his eyes, which she hadn't seen for a few days, were more touching, silently occupying her body and her heart.
He took a condom from the bedside table.
Lin Qian lay in the bed, wrapped herself up like a dumpling, and looked at him with a smile. "You're still using Japanese goods? Tsk, tsk, tsk. Mr. Li, please don't let outsiders know about this. Otherwise, how can you call for the whole industry to boycott foreign investment … "
Obviously, one should think thrice before provoking Li Zhicheng. This rule applied throughout his life. Because he glanced at her and suddenly threw the condom away. "I'm not wearing it anymore."
Lin Qian was speechless.
Seeing that he was really going to continue, Lin Qian quickly said, "I was wrong, I was wrong, okay? Hurry up and put it on."
Unexpectedly, he looked at her deeply and held her face with both hands. "I'm not wearing it, okay?"
His voice was low and cold, making Lin Qian's heart skip a beat.
He was serious.
She was pregnant.
Although their wedding was set to be in four months, and they had talked about whether they wanted a girl or a boy.
He said he wanted a girl.
However, a man like him, a man who stood at the top of the industry, was only 27 years old. He had just gotten engaged, but he already had the idea of having a child. He was even earlier than the successful men around him. Ning Weikai was already thirty, but he still didn't have a child.
Sure enough, he still had the appearance of a twenty-year-old, but the heart of a forty-year-old man.
Thinking of her wise conclusion, Lin Qian couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" He stared at her.
Of course, Lin Qian wouldn't tell him. But when it came to having children, she felt that it was fine to let nature take its course. Nodding his head, he said, "Let's not wear it then."
The look in Li Zhicheng's eyes changed. Lin Qian couldn't tell what exactly had changed.
He was probably … excited.
It was really hard to see excitement in his eyes. Even his excitement was dark, restrained, and hard to detect. If she wasn't familiar with every single one of his eyebrows, she wouldn't have been able to tell.
This made Lin Qian inexplicably excited.
When they finally arrived, Li Zhicheng pressed his heavy body on top of hers. She was under his chest, panting in a low voice, like a whimper, but also like excitement. Only then did she realize that there was no barrier between them. When he left bursts of hot liquid in her body, the feeling was completely different from usual.
She actually felt very touched. In the past, when she read books, the straightforward word "watering" was often used. She thought it was very dirty and violent. But at this moment, it turned out that only the word "watering" could describe the feeling of her body and the surging emotions in her heart.
He watered her, in the most intimate and beautiful way between a man and a woman.
Lin Qian's cheeks were burning. How could such a change of expression escape Li Zhicheng's eyes? There was still a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. Letting her lie in his arms, he asked in a low voice, "What are you thinking about again?"
Lin Qian couldn't help but laugh. She told him about the theory of "watering."
After listening, Li Zhicheng's lips curved into a smile, but the look in his eyes became deeper. Then, somewhere in his body, he pressed against her again.
Lin Qian's eyes widened. "You did it again …"
"You aroused me first," he said in a low voice.
"I didn't!"
Li Zhicheng looked at her quietly. Of course he did.
"You watered me", such a blatant statement, but she said it so innocently and frankly.
Which man could resist raising his head after hearing it?
In the end, there was still too little time before his flight took off, and she was too tired, so he could only release it in her hands. When Lin Qian sent him downstairs and took the car to the airport, her body still felt a little strange. The thing he left in her body seemed to be constantly reminding her that the cold man in front of her in a hurry in the morning was already the closest person to her in this world.
"Be careful. Don't get too tired." She raised her head and kissed him.
Li Zhicheng hugged her body tightly and said in a low voice, "Go up and sleep a little longer."
"Okay."
He finally let go of her and got into the car. The car quickly drove out of the hotel and disappeared from sight.
This was already the fourth weekend after their reunion after a short separation. Every time Lin Qian sent him off, she still felt a sense of loss. She wrapped her windbreaker tightly, hugged her arms, and turned to go upstairs.
Without him in the hotel room, it suddenly seemed to become unfamiliar again. She tidied up her belongings and picked up a brochure of wedding dresses on the table.
She showed it to him last night. Choosing wedding dresses, hotels, and honeymoon locations was the task he assigned to her. He was too busy, so she had to do these things.
But Lin Qian also knew that Li Zhicheng didn't want her to worry about him, so he threw these things at her.
He really wanted her to stay here and wait for him to solve everything and then come pick her up.
Lin Qian sighed, opened the brochure, and her eyes finally fell on one of the designs. It was bare-shouldered and strapless. The waist was very thin, and the layers of irregular tulle were like unrestrained dazzling flowers, surrounding the bride.
This was the style he liked.
Because he liked it, it became so attractive.
It was Monday, and Lin Qian arrived at the office at nine o 'clock.
Because the branches of Mind on the mainland were all newly built, everything was neat and orderly, so her management work was very smooth, and even quite leisurely.
She watched the news for a while, and sure enough, it was all about the major global brands under DG entering major shopping malls all over the country, and at the same time, starting to sell in SMQ's franchised stores.
This trend was inevitable, but now everyone in the industry knew that the industry association headed by Ning Weikai was constantly putting pressure on DG. The distributors and partners were caught in the middle, so every step DG took in China was not easy.
This Ning Weikai, at the critical moment, was still righteous. Lin Qian saw his news report on the webpage, and now the media had labeled him as a patriotic businessman.
He had really turned over a new leaf.
But Lin Qian was very clear that this was only the first step. She could only appropriately stop the rhythm of DG entering the market, the real battle had not yet begun.
Li Zhicheng's appearance appeared in her mind again. He was tall, dressed in a neat black suit, and his calm demeanor.
His direct battlefield.
After watching for a while, the secretary sent a CD, "Boss Lin, the video of last week's strategy meeting is ready, you can save it now."
"Okay, let me see."
Lin Qian put the CD into the computer.
This was a strategy meeting attended by all the management of Aida last week. The purpose was to discuss how to deal with DG's acquisition. Even the chairman, Li Zhicheng's father, Xu Yong, who hadn't shown up in a long time, came and gave a speech to all the staff. Lin Qian was out of town, so she participated through a video call.
Lin Qian had met this future father-in-law twice. After living with Li Zhicheng, he took her to the sanatorium. Xu Yong was very kind to her, and they had a good impression. But they didn't have any deeper contact.
Lin Qian pressed the play button, and many people appeared on the screen: Li Zhicheng, Gu Yanzhi, Liu Tong, Xue Mingtao … and Xu Yong, who was sitting in the middle, with white hair and hale and hearty spirit. The father and son looked quite similar, with cold and stiff contours, handsome features, and fair skin.
Xu Yong soon spoke. He was a man of great power, and he used to be the authority and belief of all Aida people. He slowly reviewed his history of starting a business, and everyone listened with bated breath. Li Zhicheng, who was now in power, sat quietly beside him, listening very attentively.
Then he changed the topic, saying, "I heard that DG Group in the United States has proposed to acquire us. Their offer is very good, and they have secretly contacted small shareholders. "
The atmosphere of the meeting seemed to become more serious.
"I've been to DG, and when I was young, I went to the United States and Europe for research." He said in a relaxed tone, "This company is indeed very good, one of the top 500 in the world, known as the number one in the luggage industry. But they have been in the China market for three years, and still haven't succeeded. That's why they came up with such a simple and crude way of acquisition. "
As soon as he said that, the people below all laughed. Li Zhicheng also had a very faint smile in his eyes.
Xu Yong said again, "So, do you want to sell Aida to them?" He looked around, and the whole room was silent.
"No!" He said resolutely, "No matter how high the price is, I won't sell it! One of my sons, who worked hard for Aida for a short time, died in a car accident on the way to a business trip. My other son … "He looked at Li Zhicheng," came back from the army where he had been for many years. He didn't go to be a commander, but came to manage Aida. Aida is the embodiment of all the efforts of us men, and the efforts and emotions of all of you here, thousands of Aida people. That's why I'll never sell Aida. "
The audience burst into a wave of applause, and the atmosphere suddenly became warm. Especially some of the old officials, led by Liu Tong, who looked gratified and excited.
After the applause faded, Xu Yong scanned the room with his eagle-like eyes, and finally said, "Today, I came here to make my position clear, and also to unify everyone's thoughts. If I don't sell, you don't sell either. Because Aida belongs to everyone. If someone really sells his shares, I can only say that from now on, you are no longer my friend, no longer my employee, and no longer a member of Aida. You are standing against the whole of Aida. It can even be said that you have betrayed the national brand. I, Xu Yong, will never forgive such a person. "
The meeting ended with a long applause. After a few days, Lin Qian was still moved by Xu Yong's powerful words when she saw the video of the meeting again.
Was it really true that a tiger father wouldn't have a dog son?
But another thought came to her mind: Xu Yong probably didn't know her brother's identity: the investor who bought the luggage company on behalf of the American side. Otherwise, with Xu Yong's resolute attitude, if he knew, he would feel uncomfortable.
Li Zhicheng would definitely hide it from him.
But at this moment, Lin Qian didn't expect that a few days later, things she thought would never happen, would happen one after another.
Even Li Zhicheng was caught off guard.
