Her skin was as white as jade, and her face was as beautiful as the morning sun.
For some reason, these words suddenly popped up in his mind.
Her lips were slightly open and her light breathing reminded him of that night seven years ago. At this moment, there was a fire in his lower abdomen, and his eyes couldn't help but darken a little.
"Dad, why are you here so early?" Qi Youxuan was a little unhappy. Why did his father come to pick him up so early?
"I came to pick you up early, so that you don't have to stay here for a long time and annoy others. The good impression left will be gone." Qi Chenglin said lightly.
"No, Youxuan is very obedient." Ruan Danchen hurriedly said. She had to meet Qi Chenglin's eyes, but somehow, her face became even redder.
Qi Chenglin looked at her deeply, and his hand was grabbed by Qi Youxuan, who shook it. "Dad, I haven't eaten yet. I just finished running with Aunt Ruan and bought breakfast. I'll leave after eating breakfast."
"Yes, breakfast has been bought." Ruan Danchen also said. She was reluctant to let the little guy leave so soon.
Qi Chenglin glanced at the breakfast in her hand and said lightly, "I haven't eaten either."
"…" Ruan Danchen inexplicably understood what Qi Chenglin meant. They had only met a few times. "I'm afraid this is not enough. I'll go buy more."
With that, she opened the door with the key. Qi Chenglin took the breakfast from her hand naturally. When his fingers touched her, Ruan Danchen felt as if there was an electric current running through her, which made her fingers tremble involuntarily.
"You don't have to buy it. If it's not enough, you can make me more." Qi Chenglin said, standing beside her with breakfast in his hand, waiting for her to open the door.
"…" Ruan Danchen felt that he really didn't treat himself as an outsider at all.
She quickly looked at him with her scalp burning. He was not dressed very formally today. Although he was wearing a shirt and trousers, he looked casual. With a cigarette in one hand and a bag in the other, he looked so at home. Ruan Danchen's heart was shaken.
He stood close, almost touching her shoulder, and she could smell the tobacco on him. It smelled good, very manly, and on him, even the smell of tobacco had a certain elegance.
"Is it not good for your health to smoke without eating?" Ruan Danchen glanced at the cigarette between his long fingers and said casually.
Qi Chenglin slightly curved his lips and walked past her without saying a word. Ruan Danchen heard the "bang" sound of the trash can being opened and closed. When he came back, there was no cigarette in his hand.
"…" Ruan Danchen's throat seemed to be stuck, and she couldn't speak.
"…" Ruan Danchen just casually said. She did not expect..
Suddenly, Qi Chenglin leaned over and whispered into her ear, "So this is how it feels to be controlled by a woman."
Ruan Danchen's face blushed, and her ears turned red from his breath. She shrunk her neck and didn't dare to look at him. She felt that his gaze was particularly hot at this moment.
"I as is as possible." Ruan a as he as as as he as she as he as he could.
Qi Chenglin raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and pinched one out between his thin lips. Then, he took out a lighter and lit it up.
Ruan Danchen quickly pressed his hand. "Stop smoking. It's not good to let Youxuan breathe in second-hand smoke."
"Didn't you say you didn't want to control me?" Qi Chenglin sneered. His face was cold.
Just a second ago, his gaze made her feel hot, but now it was so cold that she wanted to shiver.
"Are you going to control me or not?" Qi Chenglin raised his eyebrows and asked in a low voice with the cigarette still in his mouth.
He looked like a scoundrel and naughty, forcing her into a corner.
Ruan Danchen was depressed. She was not related to him. Why did he have to force her to control him?
She gritted her teeth and said, "Yes."
The corner of Qi Chenglin's mouth curled up. He immediately took the cigarette down and put away the lighter. He didn't smoke anymore.
"Dad, the wontons are getting cold. Can you go inside and have a private talk?" Qi Youxuan felt that he was the only one who was thinking about his breakfast!
They dilly-dallied at the door, whispering to each other and not opening the door.
Qi Chenglin glanced at him unhappily. Why was he making trouble when the atmosphere was just right?
He was always in a hurry to find a stepmother for himself, but at the critical moment, he was holding him back!
Ruan Danchen's face was burning. She quickly opened the door and let them in.
After entering the house, she went to the kitchen and took out the bowl without even changing her clothes. She poured out the wontons and put the sesame balls and fried cakes on the plate.
Sure enough, the little guy was full after eating the fried cakes and sesame balls. He reluctantly ate a few mouthfuls of the wontons and threw the rest to Ruan Danchen.
There was also a bowl of wonton for Qi Chenglin. Although Qi Youxuan couldn't eat the fried cakes and sesame balls, he didn't want to give them away. However, Ruan Danchen said that they wouldn't taste good when they were cold, so Qi Youxuan reluctantly agreed to give them to Qi Chenglin.
Qi Chenglin ate them in two or three bites and pinched these street snacks with his long fingers. It really didn't match his temperament.
However, he didn't seem to care about his image. He ate the wonton and soup in big mouthfuls. It couldn't be said that he was elegant, but he looked good eating. Ruan Danchen was a little dazed as she looked at him.
In a trance, she seemed to hear the little guy calling her.
Ruan Danchen came to her senses and looked at the little guy in a panic. He looked innocent. "Aunt Ruan, why do you keep staring at my dad? I called you just now, but you didn't hear me. You were so fascinated. But my dad is good looking, so it's normal for you to have this reaction. "
Ruan Danchen froze. She heard the roaring in her ears and was embarrassed. She saw Qi Chenglin looking at her with a faint smile. He must be laughing at her in his heart!
She stood up suddenly. Her movement was a little big and abrupt, as if she was guilty.
She stacked the empty bowls together and said quickly in a low voice, "I'm going to wash the dishes."
After saying that, she took the bowls and walked away.
Qi Chenglin could see that the back of her neck was also red.
It was not until Ruan Danchen rushed into the kitchen and closed the door that Qi Chenglin said, "Enough is enough. Don't come crying to me if she runs away."
Qi Youxuan wiped the oil off his fingers and wiped his hands with a tissue. "Aunt Ruan was fascinated by you just now."
Qi Chenglin's lips curled up, but his voice was very serious. "Go wash your hands and don't try to save trouble."
Qi Youxuan climbed down from the chair and said as he walked to the bathroom, "You're obviously very happy. The corners of your mouth are twitching, but you're still pretending. I don't know who you got your name from. "
"…" Qi Chenglin retracted his gaze and looked at the empty plates with sesame balls and fried cakes. Ruan Danchen was anxious and didn't take them away.
He got up slowly, picked up the plates with his long fingers and walked to the kitchen.
Ruan Danchen was washing the dishes at the sink near the kitchen door when the door suddenly opened. Qi Chenglin came in with the plates and put them in the sink. However, he stood there and didn't leave.
Ruan Danchen was washing the dishes, so she couldn't avoid him. He was almost sticking to her.
"You were fascinated by me just now. Am I that good-looking?" Qi Chenglin's mellow voice sounded above her head with a teasing tone.
His voice was like an electric current that ran from the top of her head to the back of her neck. Ruan Danchen's ears went numb, so she didn't wash the dishes anymore. She put the dishes in the sink and turned off the tap. She took two steps back and said stubbornly, "I was thinking about something just now. I just accidentally looked in your direction."
Qi Chenglin curled his lips mockingly and took another step closer to her. "Then look up at me now and try to think of something else."
"…" Ruan Danchen felt that Qi Chenglin was suddenly like a sticky candy. Why did he keep provoking her?
She tried to squeeze out a fake smile that she used to deal with clients when talking about business. "Young Master Lin, you really know how to joke. If you keep doing this, I'll misunderstand that you're trying to seduce me."
"I said I was seducing you last night. Have you forgotten so quickly?" Qi Chenglin's good-looking lips curved slightly. When Ruan Danchen took a step back, he took a step forward.
"Young Master Lin, stop joking. It's not appropriate for you to be like this. "Ruan Danchen took a step back and suddenly retreated to the cupboard door.
Qi Chenglin pursed his lips and pressed one hand on the cupboard door, trapping her.
His clear and relaxed face moved closer and his cheek rubbed against Ruan Danchen's cheek. His thin and hot lips moved to her ear and he said in a low voice, "I'm not joking. I'm seducing my son's mother. What's inappropriate about it?"
Ruan Danchen was stunned. Even though she had already confirmed it, she was still shocked and upset when Qi Chenglin suddenly admitted it. "You Xuan is my son, isn't he?"
Qi Chenglin's face moved back slightly. His dark eyes emitted a deep light that was especially difficult to understand.
There was silence between the two of them. Under Qi Chenglin's gaze, Ruan Danchen's scalp went numb and she felt her stomach shrink.
After a while, she heard him say in a low voice, "If it's really him, you'll let me seduce him?"
"…" What the hell was he talking about!
Ruan Danchen shrank back. "Young Master Lin, I'm just an ordinary person. I'm really not suitable to play with you like this. I just want to treat You Xuan well. Even if I can't take care of him personally, it's good enough to be able to watch him. If you just want to find a woman to tease, I'm not suitable. "
"You mean that if I'm serious and intend to marry you, this is suitable for you?" Qi Chenglin raised his eyebrows slightly.
"…" Ruan Danchen blushed at his words. He was looking at her mockingly as if she was trying to climb the social ladder and wanted to marry him. "That's not what I meant. Don't always misinterpret my words. We can't communicate properly like this."
"There's only one way for a man and a woman to communicate without reservation …" Ruan Danchen was so nervous that she didn't know what to do.
The only thing Ruan Danchen could do now was to guard her heart. She knew herself well. From the beginning to the end, she didn't intend to climb the social ladder. In the past, when she didn't know about Qi Youxuan's existence, her wish for marriage was to find a man who treated her well. He didn't need to be very successful. He just needed to be an ordinary office worker who was hardworking and motivated. The two of them would work hard to live a good life together. They would buy a house together and have children. Although it was hard to make a living, it was also enjoyable. She never thought of marrying a rich man and climbing the social ladder.
