The atmosphere at the scene was inexplicably awkward.
Zhou Qinyao realized from Tang You's eyes that the little girl must have misunderstood something. Just as he was about to explain, Zhou Yan spoke first:
"Cat, it's a cat, a cat I keep."
He repeated it three times in a row with an extremely serious and sincere expression, which made Tang You almost believe it.
She paused, then smiled and asked Zhou Yan: "Director Zhou, your cat can not only speak human language, but also tell you to see your cousin before the operation?"
This cat must have become a spirit.
Zhou Yan knew his excuse was lame and wanted to say something to save the relationship, but Zhou Qinyao spoke up:
"Just shut up."
He walked up to Tang You and explained seriously:
"Sumu is a friend of mine. Her surname is Xia and she is the daughter of an old friend of my father's family."
Tang You was silent for a while after hearing this, then blinked: "The kind that grew up together?"
Zhou Qinyao did not deny it.
This is the truth, he doesn't want to lie to Tang You.
Tang You heard the answer, turned around, picked up the soda water on the table and took another sip, then said calmly: "Okay, I got it."
Zhou Qinyao knew this was not a normal response.
When the unknown Ye Yuan appeared just now, the atmosphere between the two of them changed subtly. When Xia Sumu came out again, the atmosphere had already visibly collapsed.
From the sweet reunion in the last second to the feeling of distance that was instantly widened at this moment.
Although Zhou Qinyao felt somewhat helpless, he also understood that when Tang You had not yet completely digested the fact that Zhou Zhan was Zhou Qinyao, the names of two women with unclear relationships suddenly popped up.
If it were me, I might not be able to accept it for a while.
He could understand, but he had a clear conscience.
He shook Tang You's hand calmly: "We are really just ordinary friends."
"What kind of ordinary friend would refuse to have surgery without seeing you?"
Tang You's personality determines that she will not yell. Her tone is calm, but she is slightly angry.
After finally accepting his bizarre identity, she was once again overwhelmed by this sudden involvement.
Zhou Yan was there, and she didn't want to make the atmosphere awkward. So she stood up with her bag and said, "You go ahead. I have to go back to school."
Of course Zhou Qinyao refused to let him go, and he knew that Tang You had misunderstood him.
He said, "If you don't believe it, we can go together."
Tang You, however, had no intention of accompanying him: "No, I'm too tired from the performance today, I want to go to bed early."
In fact, there is no need to believe it or not. It's just that more than a year of separation seems to have changed too much. Tang You's mind is very confused now. He wants to be quiet and spend some time to sort out these complicated relationships.
The door happened to be open, and the girl left directly, with rejection written all over her back.
Zhou Qinyao, who was left out: "..."
He turned around and looked at Zhou Yan, and said coldly: "You did a good thing."
Zhou Yan bowed with both hands: "I'm sorry, I didn't know my cousin's wife was here."
He pretended to slap himself: "You can punish me however you want later, but Su Mu is in so much pain, can you please go over there right away?"
Zhou Qinyao drank the rest of the glass of water that Tang You had just drunk in one gulp and tugged at his tie irritably.
Not only did Zhou Yan ruin all the romantic atmosphere created that night, but Tang You also misunderstood him.
Damn it, after not seeing the girl for over a year, he almost forgot how to coax her.
Zhou Qinyao stayed calm for a minute, and finally decided to chase Tang You back and explain everything to her.
I kept calling her while waiting for the elevator, but the girl didn't answer.
Seeing that he had no intention of going to the hospital, Zhou Yan couldn't help but ask, "Brother, do you really not care about Su Mu?"
Zhou Qinyao glanced over expressionlessly, suppressing his anger: "What does her appendicitis have to do with me? She is an adult. Whether she is willing to undergo surgery is her own choice. It has nothing to do with others."
After coming out of the elevator, Zhou Qinyao was about to drive the car, but Zhou Yan stopped him, with a hint of pleading in his voice:
"Brother, don't be like this."
"I know you don't like Su Mu, but she has been looking for you and waiting for you for the two years you were away. After you came back, she didn't hesitate to use all her private money to help you. When my uncle was in a coma, she often went to take care of him. Now she is very emotional outside the operating room. Can't you just treat her as a friend and comfort her, and then explain things to her later? I believe that my cousin's wife is not the kind of unreasonable person."
Xia Sumu grew up with Zhou Qinyao and Zhou Yan. Speaking of intimacy, Zhou Yan has a better relationship with her.
Zhou Qinyao could understand Zhou Yan’s current anxiety, and what he had just said was not entirely unreasonable.
Zhou Qinyao stood on the side of the road. The May wind was a little bit stuffy, which made the contradiction even more annoying.
There was no trace of Tang You in his field of vision. After thinking for a moment, he compromised.
Cold opening:
"Just this once."
After closing the car door and fastening his seat belt, Zhou Qinyao suddenly remembered something and turned to ask Zhou Yan:
"Who is Ye Yuan?"
"Ye Yuan?"
Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment, and felt that the name sounded familiar. After a moment of recollection, he immediately remembered: "Oh, she is the person in charge of soliciting sponsorship for my cousin's school this time. What's wrong?"
"You're passionate about him?"
Zhou Yan touched the back of his head in confusion: "Enthusiastic? I just asked her about the relevant matters of the event."
At this point, Zhou Qinyao still didn't understand why Tang You could tie him and this woman together.
That day, the person in charge of Tangyou School came to discuss sponsorship. He was in a meeting, so he handed the matter over to Zhou Yan. He had never seen this woman from beginning to end.
It was not until the car was halfway through the journey that Zhou Qinyao thought of a possibility:
"Where did you meet Ye Yuan?"
"Ah." Zhou Yan smiled embarrassedly: "Your office."
Zhou Qinyao: …
Brake and open the door.
Get out of the car.
Zhou Yan:
Although he had no thoughts about Xia Sumu, as Zhou Yan said, Xia Sumu once lent a helping hand to him when he was in the most difficult time.
Even if it was just a tiny bit, it was a precious sincerity when we were surrounded by enemies on all sides.
From a friend's perspective, Zhou Qinyao seems to deserve this trip.
But he had finally reunited with Tang You, and he didn't want her to misunderstand him because of these unfounded things.
He had made the little girl wait for more than a year and had already used up all his patience. For the rest of his life, he just wanted to see her every day and love and pamper her with all he had.
When we arrived at the hospital, Xia Sumu still refused to undergo surgery.
It was the first time in her life that she went on the operating table, and although it was just a minor operation, she still experienced abnormal emotions that were difficult for everyone to understand.
It was not enough for her to insist on seeing her parents, she had to wait for Zhou Qinyao to be with her before she dared to enter that door.
When Zhou Qinyao arrived, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Sumu's face turned pale with pain, and he spoke weakly:
"Zhou Zhan, I'm so scared."
Zhou Qinyao patiently comforted her, "It's okay, you'll be fine after a good night's sleep."
Xia Sumu: "Will you still be here when I come out?"
Zhou Qinyao was silent, then said: "Don't think too much, just do the surgery first."
The doctor who had been waiting on the side couldn't wait to push her into the operating room: "Alright, alright, hurry up, any further delay will make the condition worse."
The last words Xia Sumu shouted before being pushed into the operating room were:
"Zhou Zhan, please don't leave."
To be honest, Zhou Qinyao was not a particularly enthusiastic person. Ever since the changes in his family, his emotions became even colder, and he was like a dull piece of white paper on weekdays.
Since Tang You appeared, this white paper has had some color and warmth.
So naturally, after Xia Sumu went in for surgery, Zhou Qinyao seemed to have completed a mission of friendship and turned around to leave.
Xia Sumu's father did not lend a helping hand when the Zhou family was in danger, so it was not a good time to ask too much of Zhou Qinyao at this time, but he still begged him:
"Just consider it as a request from your uncle. Can you wait until Mumu comes out before leaving?"
Zhou Qinyao simply left a message: "Uncle, please tell Su Mu that she has woken up—"
The man paused, his voice deep and indifferent:
"I already have a girlfriend. I won't do something like what happened today, and it's not convenient for me to do it again."
…
At eleven o'clock in the evening, Zhou Qinyao returned home.
He bought a new house of his own, a spacious sky villa facing the river, with 180-degree panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows that allowed him to take in all the beautiful scenery of Haicheng.
After taking a shower, the man poured a glass of wine and stood in front of the French window.
He was still thinking about everything that happened after meeting Tang You tonight. From the initial surprise, excitement, and sweetness, to Tang You's obvious confusion after Zhou Yan came.
Zhou Qinyao had never seen the uncertainty and insecurity in her eyes before.
The night view outside the window is as prosperous as the day, depicting the true beauty of this world.
Zhou Qinyao finished his glass of wine, took out his cell phone, and couldn't help but call Tang You.
The phone rang several times, and just when Zhou Qinyao thought Tang You still wouldn't answer, the call was connected.
The girl's voice was soft and a little bit watery, and she said softly:
"Hello."
Zhou Qinyao was stunned for a moment, then immediately hid his surprise and treated it as a normal and natural greeting: "Good boy, are you still awake?"
Tang You: "I just took a shower and am ready to go to bed."
Perhaps it was because there was too much drama in tonight's reunion that the two of them were silent for a few seconds.
But only a few seconds later, Zhou Qinyao broke the silence and called Tang You's name:
"Yes, it's not what you think."
Times have changed, and these familiar words made Tang You absent-minded for a moment.
She suddenly remembered that when they both hid their feelings in their hearts at the beginning, the beautiful figure who appeared outside the sports car shop broke the cellophane between them.
This is what Zhou Qinyao said at that time.
"So..." Tang You seemed to understand something, "The person who went to the store to look for you that year was this Xia Sumu?"
"Yes. I told you at that time, it's not what you think." Zhou Qinyao's tone was firm, making people feel safe and comfortable:
“It wasn’t then, and it’s still not now.”
Tang You was a little confused and remained silent.
Zhou Qinyao waited for a few seconds, then whispered, "No matter what time, you are the only one in my heart."
"… "
The man's words were just like the kiss tonight, hot and straightforward.
Tang You's heart was pounding with emotions and she couldn't handle it at all. She blushed as she sat on the bed in the dormitory with the lights off.
She lay down at a loss and hid under the quilt, hiding her shy expression as if she was afraid of being seen by him.
The roommate turned over at this time, making a sound to indicate that he was disturbed. Tang You wanted to say something, but after a pause, he could only say softly, "It's too late. I want to go to bed."
After hanging up the phone, Tang You breathed a sigh of relief.
Everything that happened tonight was like she had finally woken up from a dream she had been waiting for for a long time, but the reality was very different from what she had expected.
The frog became a prominent prince, and he was no longer the only princess by his side.
Girls always lack a sense of security. Although Zhou Qinyao has repeatedly stated that his feelings have not changed, after experiencing this earth-shattering identity change, Tang You feels inexplicably strange and hesitant, always feeling that the current Zhou Qinyao is not as real as before.
The next day, Zhou Qinyao had to go on a business trip for a few days because of something important. Before he left, he called Tang You, but the girl was in get out of class at the time and didn't answer. When she found the missed call after class, she only saw a text message from the man saying -
I will be back in a week and will pick you up from school directly to have dinner together.
Tang You tried to call him, but his phone was turned off.
Maybe on a plane.
She thought it was a good idea to give everyone a week to get used to each other's new identities. Maybe when Zhou Qinyao came back, she would be able to fully accept that he was Zhou Zhan.
A few days after the concert, on Friday, Cheng Xuan became a hot topic.
Because of the advertisement she worked with Jiang Ding earlier, she became a little famous in Haiyi, and now she has taken on a chocolate advertisement with the popular traffic star Jin Yang. The two behaved intimately on the scene, and the media reported it widely, saying that they were a golden boy and a jade girl, and they were forced to pair them up.
Many people in the school are jealous of Cheng Xuan openly or secretly, but not everyone has the resources to work with a movie emperor when she debuts. Now she can even partner with a popular traffic star, which shows that the people who support her behind the scenes are very powerful.
So there's nothing anyone can do except to complain about how she has such a powerful financial sponsor at such a young age.
After seeing the gossip, Tang You asked Cheng Xuan: "Is your relationship with Jin Yang real or fake?"
Cheng Xuan had the popular big waves and her lips were curled up in a charming smile: "What's real or fake? Let's just play around. If he wants to fire me, I will accompany him. Anyway, I won't lose anything."
Tang You: “…”
It seemed like some things shouldn't be mentioned, but in the end she couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure Jiang Ding wouldn't mind if he saw it?"
Cheng Xuan paused while applying lipstick, then laughed self-deprecatingly: "Why does he mind? The scandals of the movie king can circle the earth. I can't even graduate from his level."
Her tone was so casual that it seemed like she was gossiping about other people, but the more nonchalant she sounded, the more Tang You knew she actually cared.
I just pretend to be strong and don't want to show my vulnerable side to anyone.
Tang You knows everything.
But when it comes to relationships, if there are some inappropriate aspects, it will be painful to force it.
She leaned on the back of the chair and watched her good friend putting on makeup, without saying a word for a long time.
Cheng Xuan noticed her distraction, turned around and waved at her: "By the way, are you going to the charity dinner tomorrow night?"
Tang You shook his head: "I don't want to go."
This charity dinner was hosted by the government's Ministry of Culture. They signed several cooperation agreements with New Zealand, and Haiyi acted as the middleman for this concert, so they specially selected a group of outstanding students and also invited some upper-class and entertainment celebrities in the city to participate.
As a new actor who is currently in the limelight, Cheng Xuan was naturally included in the list, and Tang You, as one of the live performers, was also on the list.
But she didn't like attending such occasions, so she was going to refuse. But Cheng Xuan held her hand and said, "Go ahead, or I'll be bored alone."
Tang You was shaken by her until he felt dizzy, and finally had to surrender: "Okay, okay, I'll go."
After agreeing to meet tomorrow night, Tang You packed up and prepared to go home.
After going to college, Fang Lai no longer let the driver follow Tang You when traveling like he did in the past. Moreover, the Art College itself is a place full of gossips, and Tang You likes to keep a low profile, so he takes a taxi home on weekends.
When she walked to the school gate and was about to hail a taxi, a girl suddenly stood in front of her.
The girl was taller than him, with beautiful features. Although she had delicate makeup on, it still couldn't hide the paleness in her face.
She asked, "Are you Tang You?"
Tang You immediately made a three-point judgment based on her appearance, her state, and the question she asked him.
After a pause, he asked, "Are you Xia Sumu?"
…
Tang You didn't expect Xia Sumu would take the initiative to find her.
She had expected this meeting, but she didn't expect it to come so soon.
When Zhou Qinyao was still an ordinary office worker in a sports car shop, Xia Sumu came all the way to City C to find him. Tang You is also a woman, and she knows that she is not the only one waiting for this man over the years.
In the coffee shop, two people who didn't know each other sat opposite each other. Tang You looked indifferent: "Do you have something to talk to me about?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to get to know you."
Xia Sumu's personality was different from what Tang You had imagined. She had thought that she would be like the young lady with a bad attitude on TV, who would come to accuse her aggressively.
But she didn't.
She must have just been discharged from the hospital. Her voice was very weak.
"You're so pretty, no wonder he likes you."
Tang You knew that Zhou Qinyao must have done or said something that made Xia Sumu impulsively come to find him before his body had recovered.
Thinking of this, Tang You felt complicated again.
It seemed like she should be happy, but looking at the pale, weak woman in front of her, she couldn't be happy.
"And then? What do you want to do after you meet me?"
Xia Sumu shook his head: "I don't know either."
She is the same age as Zhou Qinyao this year. She has liked him since she was a child and has liked him for so many years. She thought that the long wait would always have a result, and that the hard-hearted man would change his attitude towards her. However, she did not expect that what she got was a ruthless verdict.
When Xia Sumu came out of the operating room and opened his eyes, the first words he heard were the message Zhou Qinyao left behind.
She couldn't accept it, suspected it was all a lie, and finally calmed down and asked Zhou Yan about everything. Only then did she know -
During the two years that Zhou Qinyao was away, he met the woman he liked.
Xia Sumu sighed and looked out the window: "Did you know? During the appendectomy surgery, the informed consent form stated that anesthesia could also cause shock or even death. I was thinking at the time, I have liked him for so long, if this probability really happens to me, I will take one more look at him before I die."
"We grew up together. I know everything about what he likes to drink, eat, brand and perfume."
After saying that, she looked at Tang You:
"Did you know?"
Tang You: “…”
The Zhou Qinyao she knew smoked ten-yuan cigarettes, liked to drive fast, and liked to joke with Wei Kai and others.
It seems like he is not the same person as the woman in front of him.
"So, what exactly do you want to express by telling me all this?" Tang You asked.
Xia Sumu was silent for a long time.
"… Do you have to have him?"
Saturday's charity dinner was held in a six-star hotel in Haicheng.
There are many celebrities from the city here tonight, and some big stars in the cultural and sports circles have responded to the call of the government’s Ministry of Culture and have come to the scene to show their respect.
Participation in this kind of cross-border cultural exchange is also a symbol of identity.
Fang Lai has always been a philanthropist in the city, and people from the government had invited her early on. After all, there would be an auction of items on the spot, and there had to be a few entrepreneurs willing to spend money to make the dinner a little more decent.
Normally, such high-level dinners are very formal. Men need to have female companions when they appear, and women also need to have male companions.
Fang Lai's male companion was naturally her husband Tang Yuanxiao, but her daughter Tang You was left alone.
However, Fang Lai seemed to have made arrangements in advance and assigned his newly hired assistant to Tang You.
In order to deal with the superficial etiquette, Tang You had to enter the venue holding the arm of his assistant. When he was looking for Cheng Xuan in the venue, he saw Cheng Xuan following him into the hall.
Cheng Xuan wore a black deep V long skirt, which made her look sexy and charming. She had a charm that other girls of her age did not have.
Just a smile with curved lips can charm everyone.
The person she was holding was actually the popular actor Jin Yang, who was currently being rumored to be having an affair with.
Walking out of the spotlight, Jin Yang happened to meet a familiar friend and left to toast. Taking this opportunity, Tang You hurriedly went to meet Cheng Xuan: "You are already in the limelight, and you are paired with this person."
Cheng Xuan took a sip of champagne and laughed heartlessly: "If you want to stir fry, stir fry as much as you want."
Tang You couldn't do anything to her. She looked away slightly and saw the man surrounded by spotlights coming in from outside. Her expression changed and she lowered her voice and leaned over: "Why is Jiang Ding here too?"
Cheng Xuan froze for a moment, then turned his head and looked at Jiang Ding from across the crowd.
His female companion tonight was the leading lady of the movie he was working with. Although there were no rumors about the two of them, they had dominated many headlines recently. She was also a popular actress who had won many awards, so naturally, a newcomer like him could not compare to her.
Cheng Xuan withdrew his gaze calmly: "Come if you want, you are not an enemy."
She raised her chin proudly: "I'm going to toast them now."
Tang You: "... Don't!"
But words could not stop Cheng Xuan's momentum. She held a bottle of champagne in her hand and blocked Jiang Ding from entering the venue at the door:
"Teacher Jiang, long time no see. Have you changed again?"
Jiang Ding looked coldly at the charming woman in front of him. Her deep V black dress exposed all her youth and beauty, and her voice after drinking seemed to have a hook.
What he said was both tempting and irritating.
Tang You was afraid that Cheng Xuan's personality would cause some unpleasantness, so she stood beside her. However, Cheng Xuan drank a glass of wine quietly, shook his big waves, and looked at Jiang Ding with ruthless and unfamiliar eyes:
"Let's go, it's up to you."
Tang You: “…”
I had no choice but to say hello and leave.
Catch up with Cheng Xuan and persuade her: "Drink less."
Cheng Xuan took two more glasses of wine from the plate of the waiter who passed by and said, "If you don't drink at the dinner, do you want to drink plain water? Come on,"
She handed the other cup to Tang You: "cheese."
After one person finished, Cheng Xuan walked towards where Jin Yang was standing with a smile on his face, put his arm around his naturally and lightly, and joined the group that was chatting with him.
Tang You stood in the middle and looked back awkwardly.
Jiang Ding and his female companion were chatting and laughing with the guests in another direction, toasting each other, and seemed not to be affected at all.
It’s really about parting ways and living happily ever after.
Tang You felt inexplicably bored. She walked aside and watched the live band performance for a while, calculating in her heart that today was only Saturday, and there were still three days before the one-week business trip that Zhou Qinyao had mentioned.
Why does time go so slowly
Just as Zhou Yan said, Tang You was not an unreasonable person. After thinking about it calmly these days, he felt that he should not have been so stingy that night.
Fang Lai's assistant came over and nodded politely, "Miss, Mr. Fang asked me to take you to meet some elders."
Tang You looked over and saw Fang Lai waving at her not far away.
She had nothing to do anyway, so she simply nodded and put her arm around the assistant's, "Let's go."
Just as I took a few steps, I suddenly heard a loud noise behind me, and the sound of shutter clicks rose and fell.
Tang You turned his head curiously.
But after seeing who was coming, his body froze.
Zhou Qinyao wore a black suit with a light blue shirt. He was tall and slender, with a proud and calm look in his eyes. He exuded a strong aura and attracted the attention of all the media as soon as he entered the door.
Tang You's hand was still on the assistant's arm.
She saw Zhou Qinyao coming in and looking at her. His gaze stayed on her hand for a few seconds before he calmly withdrew it and accepted interviews from all media as if nothing had happened.
He stood in the crowd, with a glance that showed off his sharpness.
Tang You turned around nervously for some reason, feeling a little thirsty.
He slowly clenched his hand into a fist and moved it, wanting to pull it back from the assistant's arm, but he felt that doing so would be a bit shady.
She has a clear conscience, why should she feel guilty
I was walking forward aimlessly, but I saw Cheng Xuan leaning against the pillar in the lobby in front of me, rubbing her temples. I guessed that she must have drunk too much, so I immediately let go of the assistant and went over to support her.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"This champagne has a strong aftereffect." Cheng Xuan leaned against Tang You uncomfortably: "I feel like sleeping."
"… "
Tang You had no choice but to stop the waiter and ask if there were any rooms prepared for the guests. Fortunately, the dinner was well prepared and the entire upstairs was booked for the guests to rest at any time.
She helped Cheng Xuan to go to the second floor from the dimly lit corner, and suddenly she vaguely realized that someone was waiting for her not far ahead.
Tang You's heart moved, and her intuition was that it was Zhou Qinyao.
Looking up, it was true.
The man was leaning against the champagne table in front, holding an untouched glass of wine in his hand. The light occasionally passed over his face, and the handsome and cold man did not have much expression.
He just stood there, obviously waiting for me.
Tang You hesitated for a moment, then walked over with gritted teeth. At the same time, a figure dressed coolly passed by him at a faster speed.
Ye Yuan came from nowhere, but she quickly stopped in front of Zhou Qinyao and stretched out her delicate hand:
"Hello, Mr. Zhou."
The man who was originally visible at a glance was now completely blocked by the charming school beauty. Tang You couldn't help but think of what his classmates said backstage that day, and he felt uncomfortable.
It seems to taste sour.
Despite this, the little girl tried hard to keep a steady expression on her face, looking straight ahead, and not stopping at all as she passed by, walking away as if nothing had happened, like a stranger.
Zhou Qinyao: “…”
He subconsciously turned around and wanted to chase her, but Ye Yuan stopped him, her eyes full of charm:
"Mr. Zhou, I'd like to offer you a toast. Thank you for sponsoring our concert this time."
Zhou Qinyao frowned and turned back impatiently: "Who are you?"
The girl smiled and said, "My name is Ye Yuan."
Tang You walked to the corner leading to the second floor and couldn't help but secretly looked back in the direction of Zhou Qinyao, but found that there was no man next to the bar.
Ye Yuan was still there, but her face didn't look so good, turning red and white, and she forced herself to talk to people passing by with a dry smile.
Tang You didn't stop, went up to the second floor, and took Cheng Xuan to a room. Just as he sat down on the sofa, a man suddenly came in from outside the door.
Tang You was startled, and when she turned around she found that it was Jiang Ding.
The atmosphere stagnated for a few seconds.
He walked over and looked at Cheng Xuan coldly: "Did I ever tell you not to drink so much?"
Cheng Xuan raised his eyelids slightly, looked at him half-consciously, then lowered his head again, picked up the pillow beside him and threw it at him: "It's none of your business."
Jiang Ding caught the pillow and then glanced at Tang You.
"Yes, you can go out."
Tang You: “…”
The atmosphere seemed to indicate that the two would have a fierce quarrel. She was a little worried: "What are you going to do? Don't scold her."
Jiang Ding: "This is between me and her."
Tang You: “…”
Well, it is really not her place as a friend to meddle in matters of the heart.
But before closing the door, she reminded Jiang Ding again:
"I won't let you bully her."
Jiang Ding said indifferently: "She deserves to be punished."
With a bang, the door was heavily closed. Tang You stood at the door, at a loss as to what to do, not knowing whether it was okay to leave her friend alone like this.
She did not leave immediately. She lay by the door and listened for two minutes. There was no movement inside. She leaned against the wall and waited for a while. After making sure that the intense scene she had imagined did not appear, she slowly walked back.
After taking just two steps, the road ahead was blocked.
A tall shadow blocked all the light in front of Tang You.
She looked up and met a pair of deep black eyes.
My heart skipped a beat: "How did you..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhou Qinyao quickly pulled her to open the door next door.
With a click, the door opened and closed in just one second, and the room went from light to darkness in just one second.
Tang You was caught off guard and pressed against the dark wall by Zhou Qinyao, who rushed over with a hot breath and a hoarse voice:
"Who is that man?"
It was too sudden.
Tang You had no time to react. Zhou Qinyao's scent and temperature had already flooded into her breath, spreading wildly throughout her body, madly igniting all her senses.
He pressed against her, his strong, impulsive breath right at her mouth.
As soon as Tang You opened her mouth, she could almost touch his lips.
She stepped back and whispered, "Let me go first."
Zhou Qinyao obediently moved closer, brushing her lips slightly, holding her tighter with his hands, and said in a heavy and hot voice, "Then answer me first."
"..." Thinking of Ye Yuan's flattery just now, Tang You deliberately got angry: "Why, you are allowed to have those women, but I am not allowed to have suitors? That little fresh meat is one of my suitors-"
The man didn't wait for her to finish and sealed her words with his lips.
This kiss was extremely possessive, strong and overbearing, not giving Tang You any chance to retreat. It was as if he wanted to embed her into his body, from the tip of his tongue to his teeth, every part of her was invaded fiercely, leaving his mark.
Tang You was almost out of breath, and she desperately pushed and hit Zhou Qinyao's chest with one hand.
The kiss lasted until the sky was dark. Finally, the man stopped conquering her, but bit her earlobe as a punishment, restraining his desire and impulse:
"Tang You."
"You can only be mine."
Tang You: “…”
She had never seen Zhou Qinyao like this before. The straps of her skirt were loosened. The girl shyly and annoyedly pulled her clothes in the dark. She was about to scold him when a fierce quarrel suddenly came from the next room.
The soundproofing of this hotel is quite good. Although I can hear the quarrel and Cheng Xuan saying something hysterically, I can't make out the specific content clearly.
Zhou Qinyao frowned: "Who's next door?"
Tang You was silent for a moment, knowing that he couldn't hide it, so he had to explain: "I just sent Cheng Xuan upstairs to rest, and Jiang Ding followed."
The quarrel only lasted for a moment before it stopped. The next door fell into a strange silence. Tang You felt uneasy and touched the door handle, muttering, "Maybe something happened? Never mind, I'll go check it out."
Zhou Qinyao pulled her back and held her in his arms: "Don't go."
"Why?" Tang You was at a loss: "What if Jiang Ding bullies Cheng Xuan?"
Zhou Qinyao was a man, so he naturally knew what the simplest and roughest way was for Jiang Ding next door to comfort a woman who was out of control.
But he didn't know how to explain to Tang You the strong desire for possession and conquest that one feels when love is at its peak.
There was a moment of silence in the darkness. Zhou Qinyao gently put his arm around Tang You's waist and whispered to her while his hand moved upwards and stopped at the zipper.
"Because some 'bullying' is consensual and a beautiful thing."
He gently pinched the lock, but did not move further, hugging the girl against the soft fabric.
Slightly lowering her head, she whispered seductively:
"So, when can you let me bully you?"
