She came back to her senses, not wanting to worry the old lady, and quickly shook her head, "No, don't worry, it's a minor operation. I look pale, maybe I'm a little sleepy."
"Okay, okay, go to bed if you're sleepy. Your injury isn't fully healed yet!" The old lady didn't keep her talking any longer and she went upstairs.
After talking about these with the old lady, I couldn't help feeling a little sad when I thought about the fact that I hadn't seen him for several days and didn't know how he was doing now.
Just as I was thinking this, the cell phone suddenly rang.
She grabbed it and saw his number flashing on the screen.
She put the phone aside and didn't answer it immediately. She waited until the last ring before picking it up and putting it to her ear.
Silent.
Don't speak first.
a long time…
Night Owl's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Why did you take so long to answer the phone?"
"… nothing."
He could already tell that there was something wrong with her tone. She sounded listless and lifeless.
Over there, Night Owl leaned against the car, looked at the night outside, and asked in a low voice: "Did you miss me?"
"..." This sentence brought out all the unspeakable emotions in Bai Suye's heart. She hugged the pillow, leaned against the bed, and did not answer, but just asked: "Are you busy?"
"Yeah. I haven't been here for a long time. All the things accumulated were dealt with on this day." Ye Xiao replied. Moreover, he was busy guiding the work here gradually on the right track, and only reluctantly pulled away tonight.
Since she wanted to live a brand new life, he had to make a trade-off. When she had her own family and children, he couldn't let himself or them live under the gun again.
He wanted to resolve everything that could be resolved before actually starting a relationship with her.
"Susu." Night Owl called her again, his voice deeper. In such a quiet night, it was even more sexy and captivating.
Bai Suye felt that her longing for him was aroused even more by his call. She said "hmm" softly and instinctively put the phone closer to her ear. It seemed that this brought her closer to him.
After a while, I heard Night Owl say, "... I'm at your door."
She was stunned, "Zhongshan?"
As he asked, he had already opened the door to the terrace and walked out. Zhongshan Garden was very large, with rockeries and various garden decorations blocking the view, so it was impossible to see the guardhouse at the gate.
But she still looked in that direction.
"Yeah. If you're not asleep yet, come out."
"Okay, wait for me for a while."
"Yeah." Night Owl asked, "Would you like to go out with me tonight?"
She fully agreed to the suggestion, "Then I'll change my clothes, you may have to wait a few more minutes."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Bai Suye turned back to her room. Her originally melancholy mood suddenly improved. She took off her pajamas, changed into traveling clothes, opened the door and went out.
The old lady was still awake and chatting with Aunt Lin. Seeing her come out after changing her clothes, she asked, "Why are you going out so late?"
"Didn't you just say we weren't going out on a date?"
"You don't make a date during the day, but choose the night. What are you thinking?"
here we go again.
Bai Suye was helpless, "Mom, I'm leaving first. It's so late, Dad is asleep, I won't let him in. Let's pick a day that's convenient for everyone and have him come over for a formal visit."
The old lady saw that her face was obviously different from before, and she was in high spirits. Naturally, she couldn't say anything to spoil her fun. She just nodded and said, "Go, go!"
Bai Suyue went out. The old lady and Aunt Lin looked at her back for a long time before looking away.
Aunt Lin couldn't help but sigh, "The eldest lady looks very happy. It's been a long time since I saw her in such good spirits."
"Yes." The old lady agreed. "I hope she can be like this every day in the future. Don't let anything happen again. My heart can't take it."
In fact, the old lady and the old man still had some reservations about Ye Xiao because of her identity. However, after experiencing several life and death disasters, the two elders have now become more open-minded. As long as she is happy, she can be with whoever she wants.
This night owl is her life and death calamity, her purgatory, but also her hope and everything.
How can it be stopped
———
Bai Suye walked out briskly. The guards on duty at the sentry booth saw her, stood up and greeted her respectfully. She nodded happily at them and walked out of the door.
Ye Xiao's car was parked there. The headlights illuminated half of the dark Zhongshan Mountain. She stepped on the lights and walked over. When she got closer, she saw Ye Xiao sitting in the driver's seat.
She didn't get in the car right away, but walked around to his side. He immediately rolled down the window.
Neither of them spoke first, but just looked into each other's eyes, quietly. During the three days of separation, the longing for each other was like a vine entwined in their hearts.
I thought it would only be a few days and not unbearable, but now that I see him/her, I realize that I am already suffering from lovesickness.
The color of Night Owl's eyes deepened, and the next moment, his long arms stretched out from the window, suddenly hugged the back of her head, and pulled her down. She was startled, and Night Owl's lips had already kissed hers.
From the initial light taste, to the increasingly fierce and in-depth kiss, to the final emotional outburst, the kiss was heavy and intense. It was as if he wanted to kiss back everything he had missed in the past three days.
They kissed until their breathing became disordered, she gasped softly, and her eyes were covered with moisture. Only then did he reluctantly move away from her lips.
"Get in the car," he said.
Bai Suye leaned on the car window with both hands, licked her lower lip which was reddened by kisses, and then asked, "Where are we going?"
Because she was still immersed in the kiss just now, her voice was soft, revealing a touch of ambiguity and tenderness of passion. Her eyelashes fluttered gently, and her tender red lips opened slightly, shining with the soft light of the car lights, making her look seductive.
She turned into that seductive and charming little elf again...
Night Owl's eyes darkened for a moment, and evil thoughts took root in his mind. His long fingers lingered on her face, "In fact, I would rather take you back to the hotel to sleep."
She understood what he meant and blushed, "That's not what you said just now..."
No matter how much he wanted it, he couldn't really ignore her body.
So, going back to sleep now would obviously be torture for him.
"Get in the car first."
Bai Suye nodded, came back to her senses from the ambiguity between them, and got in the car.
The faint fragrance filled her nose as she entered. Ye Xiao did not start the car immediately, but just looked at her deeply, stretched out his long arms, and easily lifted her from the passenger seat to his lap.
"Night Owl, what are you doing?"
Her voice was a little unsteady.
"Shh..." He kissed her earlobe greedily, and his warm big palm reached under the hem of her clothes.
Bai Suye's body trembled and his mind went blank.
