Sweet Nothings

Chapter 25

Views:

Huo Yunshen still hugged the cat doll in a daze, and Yan Qing hugged him. She thought that such a picture must look silly, but she was in it and just wanted to cry.

She couldn't tell whether she was doing the right thing or not, and she was confused and divided.

Pure emotional comfort, she actively gave it, approached him, accompany him to cook and eat, and sang to coax him, all of which she was very willing.

But active physical contact is another meaning for her. She wants to give her true love and people who really love her, instead of... being a stand-in.

In addition, Yan Qing was even more afraid that excessive physical intimacy would confuse the relationship. Once she broke each other's line of defense, she would be bewitched by him and sink all the way.

When the three-year deadline is up, what will she do

If you get too deep into the play, you will be smashed to pieces and unable to come out.

But all the worries and hesitations collapsed when he saw Huo Yunshen hug the doll.

She was so sad to die that she wanted him to be happy. Even if she knew it was a bottomless pit, as long as she could give him warmth, she was obliged to choose to jump again and again.

Yan Qing rubbed the dampness from her eyelashes on the tips of Huo Yunshen's hair, and folded her arms around his shoulders.

Just hug him! What's the big deal!

She kept her heart and didn't fall for him.

"Look at you poor, and you even tied the doll's hairband," Yan Qing said in a nasal voice, "I admit, I was too impersonal before, so I'm here to hug you."

Huo Yunshen couldn't hear Yanqing's voice clearly, the loud bang in his ears was full of intense heartbeats.

He slowly put the cat doll aside, the blue veins on the back of his hand.

Yan Qing asked worriedly, "Is it better? Can you try to sleep? You—"

Halfway through the conversation, the man she was holding suddenly pulled her arm away, turned the chair, turned around, hugged her tightly face to face, and pinched her waist subtly. on his lap.

This pose is more suitable for intimacy.

Huo Yunshen embeds her in his chest, pressing her back with one hand, and wrapping her head, which is swaying, with the other, imprisoning her semi-forcefully, eager to absorb her warmth.

Yan Qing's body temperature soared and she wanted to push him, but she felt it was inappropriate. After all, she was willing to come here.

She gave up, and honestly held his chest for a while, until he hugged her harder and harder, strangling her, and then she discussed in a hoarse voice: "Shen, that, I can't breathe..."

Huo Yunshen didn't let go, but raised her slightly to let her breathe smoothly.

Yan Qing's ears were too hot, so she pulled her hair to block it embarrassedly: "Is it alright? You can't hold it for nothing, you have to try to sleep well tonight."

"Not enough," he refused in a muffled voice, "another ten minutes."

"You kept the time accurately," Yan Qing laughed, "Don't be too aggressive all of a sudden."

Huo Yun stubbornly trapped her: "I don't know how long I will wait next time."

Yan Qing was mentally prepared, this kind of thing couldn't be a one-off, she had to take responsibility when she opened the door.

She reluctantly smoothed the back of his stiff neck and said softly, "I promise you, if your sleep really improves tonight, I will give you a hug before going to bed every time I stay at home. It is not included in the scope of points exchange, okay?"

Huo Yunshen stretched his arms hard, and hurriedly agreed: "Okay."

Yan Qing tried to wriggle a bit and asked politely, "Then will you let me get up?"

Huo Yunshen didn't let Yan Qing get his wish, he turned her in one direction on his lap, asked her to turn her back to him, and continued to hug him. He took a blank piece of paper from the table and put the pen into her hand: " The rules for redemption of points are set now, otherwise you won't be able to sleep."

The reason for this is the all-purpose killer. Yan Qing just sits on Mr. Huo's lap like a child, holding the pen in his back with difficulty.

rule…

Can't be too simple.

If it is easy to achieve, he will still lose enthusiasm for eating.

Yan Qing stroked one stroke at a time: "Three meals a day, take the initiative to eat the standard amount prepared by the nutritionist, take a video record, every ten times, change hands, when full twenty times, change for hugs, when full..."

She paused for a moment and noticed that the man's pulse was quickening, she bit her lip and wrote, "... Thirty times, change your face and forehead."

Then added: "After each redemption, the points will be cleared and recorded again."

"Do you accept that?"

Huo Yunshen didn't say a word, but wrapped her hand with his wide palm, and continued to write behind her with her pen: "Forty times, let me go to your room to sleep on the floor, fifty times..."

He was so strong that the tip of the pen pierced the paper: "For a kiss."

Yan Qing's eyelashes twitched, she looked back at the man's dark eyes, and asked, "Huo Yunshen, do you remember who I am?"

She's not Yun Qing... How could he kiss.

Huo Yun stared at her red lips: "Of course I remember, no one remembers it better than me."

After all, Yan Qing still respected Mr. Huo's idea. Fifty times of meals that meet the standard of eating are definitely a problem in his current situation, and there are so many rewards in front of him, he will definitely redeem them. know when.

Promise first, the big deal is that when the day comes, it's not a lie.

For now... don't want to disappoint him.

Yan Qing went back to the room and got a box. It was the heart rate monitoring bracelet she bought for Mr. Huo on the Internet, which happened to be available tonight.

She put the bracelet on him and warned: "This can test the quality of sleep, check the results tomorrow morning, and the promise of hugs will only take effect if there is progress."

Yanqing was also afraid that Mr. Huo would dislike this worthless and unsightly little thing, but he didn't expect him to fondle it back and forth, and his eyes lit up when he raised his eyes: "You gave me a gift."

Her threatening tone: "If you don't behave well, the gift will be taken back."

Huo Yun looked at her deeply, smiled faintly, leaned to her ear, and said word by word, "Don't even think about it."

As a result, this night was replaced by Yan Qing's insomnia. She was trapped in the soft big bed, and her mind was full of the strength and suffocation of Huo Yun's deep embrace of her. In the early morning, she barely fell asleep. In her dream, she had a pair of strong arms, also like He hugged her tightly, calling out "Qingqing" as if weeping and sighing.

Yan Qing woke up with a start, full of cold sweat, and her temples were wet.

She couldn't help remembering that someone called her "Qingqing" in the past, and she couldn't accept it at all, but Huo Yunshen has been calling her that way since she knew her, and she didn't feel any discomfort.

Probably... get used to it

At first, she and him were a life-and-death relationship, and she probably couldn't care about these little things. Later, she heard too much and got used to it.

Yan Qing thought so in her heart, but something like a needle was stabbing in the back of her mind. She shook her head, pressed her eyebrows, and the phone beside her pillow vibrated: "Wife, breakfast is ready."

Huo is awake!

She hurriedly got out of bed, cleaned herself up, and rushed downstairs to check the results: "How is it?"

Huo Yunshen's lips were a little more bloody than yesterday. He raised his eyebrows slightly, showing her the clear waveform chart, and there was a hint of a smile in his voice: "Deep sleep for an hour and a half, without interruption."

Yan Qing was not happy, but more uncomfortable.

Even sleeping for an hour and a half can make him show off happily, how did he survive so many long days and nights before.

Seeing her serious expression, he thought she regretted it, and his smile suddenly disappeared, and he tightened his eyebrows to confirm: "Yanqing, I have made progress, you can't deny it."

Yan Qing took a deep breath and rolled her eyes sweetly: "Do what you say."

But she couldn't help herself. The next knockout round was coming soon. She needed to hurry up with new ideas for team performance. The fate of the six people was hanging on her. She didn't have enough time. Way to hug him before bed.

After the meal, Huo Yunshen sent Yan Qing to the program group.

Before leaving, Yan Qing had already opened the car door and couldn't help but look back at him again.

The light in the early morning was still very weak, and only a thin strand of silk was left after infiltrating the car window, laying on Huo Yunshen's side face, handsome, forbearance, and hiding a deep tenderness.

She couldn't help asking: "I can't put you first, are you angry?"

Huo Yun smiled very quietly: "I'm learning a habit, and I'll improve."

Sleep will improve, eating will improve.

Even learning to accept the fact that she ignores will make progress.

Progress to the point that she can fall in love with him again one day.

Yan Qing entered the practice room, put on a four-day countdown, and started the preparations for sleepless nights.

In the little time left, she overturned the previous arrangement, rebuilt a new plan, and received unanimous support from the team. Everyone voluntarily took her as the center, and did their best to cooperate, and at the same time, they did their due confidentiality.

The little curly hair was indignant: "Yanyan, you don't know yet, just because the members of our team have the largest level gap, there are several groups waiting to watch the excitement, discussing openly and secretly, saying that the final stage effect is definitely not good, Not only your S can't be kept, but all six of us have to fall to the end."

Ouyang pouted: "Those little girls are all scumbags. When they are incited, they gossip along, and you don't care."

Yan Qing smiled.

President Huo was unconditionally satisfied with her wishes. She didn't want any ambiguous rumors from the outside world, so he went out to cast a wide net and invested in several popular variety shows in a row, including the men's team draft, and he also pulled up a large enough company. In the media company, many first-line artists learned that it was Huo's handwriting, and their hearts were eager to sign it.

Guided by such a few gossip news and marketing accounts, when the public naturally blurred out the primary evaluation, Huo's special protection for her gradually evolved into "Mr. Huo is only interested in contaminating the entertainment industry, so he just picks one up at will. Portal, just sign some new faces that can become popular."

Yan Qing's name is listed as one of the "new faces" and is placed with many people. Although her topic and popularity have steadily increased, her involvement with the Huo family and the so-called "big lady" But it is gradually fading.

Besides, Huo Yunshen is famous for being cold-blooded and ruthless, and no one could have imagined that a young newcomer whom he seemed to care for by chance would be his legitimate wife whom he regarded as a treasure.

The superficial contact with Mr. Huo is weak, and besides the incident of being framed by Yun Ling recently, Yan Qing has not shown any special identity background. These little girls who have read gossip on the Internet will inevitably fall down, and they have nothing to do with her. After the diligence and awe of the past, there are still some people who are dissatisfied.

Yan Qing doesn't care: "Don't worry about them, just be yourself."

At the beginning of this round of knockouts, the role of the mentor group will change from "decisive" to "assistant". The ranking and leaving or staying of each contestant will be comprehensively determined by the online voting channel and the voting of a thousand public judges at the program recording site. .

It’s a lie to say that you’re not nervous because you’re about to face real audiences and fans.

The night before the recording, in the sweating practice room, Xiao Curly asked Yanqing nervously, "Aren't you panic? So many people watched us perform."

Yanqing looked at the starry sky outside the window. It was at home that night. Huo Yunshen waved a temporary light stick and said to her, "You are better than anyone".

She was a little lost.

For four days in a row, he went out early and returned late, and he didn't look at his mobile phone very much, but Huo Yunshen regularly sent a video of his meal every day. She could see that he was not eating well, and it was embarrassing to swallow the amount of food he should have, but he still turned towards the camera. lip.

After recording this episode, she will go home a few more times to accompany him...

"Yanyan, what are you thinking? It was just announced on the radio, let's hurry up and choose costumes."

Yan Qing froze.

She actually... thinking about him.

Yan Qing exhaled and took the time to lead the team out.

The name of their performance is "Flying Birds". In order to achieve the best stage effect, clothing is very important, and the styles provided by the program team must be limited. Go early so that you can choose the right one as much as possible.

A group of six people just happened to come out of the practice room next door, walking in front of them, talking and sneering at each other.

"Does Yanqing have any background? You used to be so ostentatious, don't blow it up yourself."

"Who knows, Mr. Huo hasn't shown up since then, and he doesn't seem to care much about her."

"Her half of the group's crane tail this time will definitely be finished. What kind of mystery is she still keeping the door closed? I guess she will give up her team effect and only care about her singing well. At that time, the Internet will inevitably scold her for being selfish."

"I thought I would sit firmly in the C position from a high starting point. This time I will wait for a miserable fall."

Ouyang's face was sullen, and he was about to fight before he caught up. Yan Qing grabbed her in time: "Don't be impulsive, do business first."

The team arrived one step ahead of them to the props room for costume selection. On the layers of movable hangers, there was a group of very eye-catching feather elements.

Yan Qing's eyes lit up slightly, and the feather elements fit in with "Flying Birds". The other groups are not necessary. If they wear it, it will not match the performance style, but it will be abrupt.

She went straight to the set of clothes, and the staff also said with a smile, "This set is very special and suitable for you."

Just as Yan Qing's fingers were about to touch the skirt, the other hand stretched out abruptly and grabbed it as if grabbing.

She looked up and saw the captain of the team who was mocking them outside the practice room just now.

"First come, first served, we'll take it," the captain is currently ranked second, Xiang You is highly regarded, and has always been very unhappy that Yan Qing took the limelight alone, she rarely got a chance, and deliberately asked in front of everyone, "Don't you want to steal it? Or do you admit that your team is not confident enough to rely on clothes?"

Yan Qing frowned: "This set doesn't fit your style."

The captain snorted softly: "It's okay if it looks good."

Saying that, he immediately greeted the team members and took away the entire group of feathers.

Yan Qing and the others will definitely fall miserably, she just wants her to have no possibility of relying on styling.

Anyway, Yanqing has no one to support her, and it doesn't matter if she is on the bar, she can only vacate the highest position by retreating in the ranking.

Ouyang couldn't bear it anymore, he rolled up his sleeves and went up, Yan Qing stopped her again, pursed her lips and said, "It will only make people laugh and spread the black material, don't they think we can't do it, then use the strength of the scene. prove."

If the performance is good enough, it will definitely make up for the lack of clothing.

It was already one o'clock in the morning when Yan Qing returned to the dormitory.

She took out her phone to look through Mr. Huo's videos today, and was surprised to find that the last one was posted ten minutes ago.

Yun Shen: "Did you sleep?"

She hurriedly rowed forward, he was every half an hour from nine o'clock in the evening until now.

"I haven't seen you for four days."

"Can you come out? I'm downstairs."

"Just a minute."

There are many more, until just now: "Did you sleep?"

His words were simple and he didn't deliberately give her any emotion, but Yan Qing felt that his whole body was dipped in lemon juice, and acid was seeping from his skin and bones.

She didn't reply, afraid that if he had already left, he would turn back again.

Yan Qing forgot about other things, put on a coat and hurried downstairs. She was worried that the elevator was too loud to attract attention.

The security guard was asleep, and there was a small door next to it that was unlocked. She went out with her heart in mind, only to find that it was snowing and a thin layer of pure white was on the ground.

Yan Qing ran to the back of the building, where he often parked, saw a tall figure standing in the snow from a distance, looking up at the direction of her dormitory.

She seemed to lose her voice for a moment, rubbed the corners of her eyes that were blown red by the wind, and hurried towards him.

Huo Yun heard the sound and lowered his head, the light overflowing from his eyes was brighter than the broken snow under the lamp.

He strode up to meet him, unbuttoning his coat as he walked, opening the front of the warm jacket, and wrapping her thin body tightly.

"you… "

"I didn't break the rules," he sighed contentedly in his throat, bent his back, and hugged her tightly, "I'm sleeping in the car tonight, so I'm here to ask my wife for a hug... I owe it for four days."
