Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was natural to be intimate with the person she loved. She was more than happy.
Qi Shenbai’s throat tightened. His gaze fell on her flushed face. Finally, he could not help but lean down and kiss her red lips.
This kiss was even more passionate and domineering than before.
Xu Jiaojiao was both excited and nervous. As far as she knew, the first time was always painful.
She could not stand pain, so much so that she would refuse needles even when she was sick.
The sound of the wind in her ears grew louder and louder. It was as if she was in a hot stove. However, instead of proceeding to the next step as she expected, he grabbed her little hand.
Xu Jiaojiao abruptly opened her eyes.
The room was decorated in a minimalistic gray style. The floor lamp glowed orange, and the place was quiet.
Qi Shenbai’s slender body and strong arms held Xu Jiaojiao in his arms. Hot sweat dripped from his forehead onto her neck.
His black eyes were as hot as lava, as if they wanted to melt her entire body.
His lips whispered into her ear like a divine revelation, “Jiaojiao…
“My little girl…”
When the scene in her dream slowly overlapped with reality, Xu Jiaojiao was stunned. Instantly, she was flushed and embarrassed.
So it was not a dream.
Even back then, her dreams had already predicted that she and Qi Shenbai would end up together!
Xu Jiaojiao’s delicate heart felt as if it was on fire. She felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction as her fingers dug into his shoulders.
Qi Shenbai’s body tensed for a moment, as if he had been in hell for about ten seconds. Then he felt free again, as if he was at the bottom of the sea.
This was a feeling that he had never experienced before. However, one time was enough to get him hooked.
Outside the window, the sky was beginning to lighten. The two of them were hugging each other in the room. They were obviously exhausted, but they could not fall asleep.
Xu Jiaojiao leaned against Qi Shenbai’s arm as she recalled the details of what had just happened. She recalled his expression when he was aroused and was so embarrassed that she did not dare to raise her head.
Qi Shenbai lowered his head and kissed her cheek. He asked, “Are you not sleepy?”
Xu Jiaojiao shook her head and looked at him with her clear eyes, unable to hide the deep affection in them.
Qi Shenbai’s heart skipped a beat. He kissed the corner of her eye again. “Why did you suddenly come here alone?”
Xu Jiaojiao shook her head and said, “I’m not sure why. When you said that you missed me, I had a faint premonition— 1 knew that 1 definitely couldn’t let you be alone. 1 had to come.”
Qi Shenbai’s eyes were filled with affection. “Thank you for coming for me.”
—You arrived the very second before I drowned.
Xu Jiaojiao smiled and hooked his collar with her fingertips. “You’re welcome. Did your elders get angry when I called you out on New Year’s Eve?”
“I’m the CEO of the Qi Group and the head of the Qi family. Who would dare to be angry with me?” Qi Shenbai curled his lips and laughed happily.
That made sense. Xu Jiaojiao felt relieved.
“You should get a little sleep.” He hugged the little girl in his arms and tucked her in with his other hand. “We’ll go back to Luo City in the afternoon.”
“Okay.” Xu Jiaojiao obediently closed her eyes. She did not ask him what happened yesterday, nor did she ask him why he had come to City A.
When Xu Jiaojiao opened her eyes again, Qi Shenbai had already changed his clothes. He sat by her bedside and looked at her with an indescribably gentle gaze.
“You’re awake?” Qi Shenbai bent down and kissed her on the lips.
Xu Jiaojiao blinked and subconsciously covered her mouth. “Wait… 1 haven’t brushed my teeth yet.”
“It’s okay. I didn’t use my tongue.”
Xu Jiaojiao blinked.
Help! Why was he being so straightforward and vulgar?!
She pulled the blanket over her head.
Qi Shenbai pulled away the blanket and carried her out of it. “You can’t stay in bed anymore. It’s time to wash up and eat.��
Xu Jiaojiao had come here in a hurry and did not bring anything with her, so she could only wear yesterday’s clothes.
Qi Shenbai had arranged for lunch to be delivered to their room. They were all Xu Jiaojiao’s favorite dishes.
After dinner, the two of them set off for the airport.
Xu Jiaojiao had already gotten into the car. Just as Qi Shenbai was about to get in, Cang Xing suddenly walked over with a troubled expression. “Mr. Qi…”
Qi Shenbai closed the car door and followed Cang Xing’s gaze to see a white-haired old man getting out of a car that had stopped not far away.
Although the old man had a head of white hair, he was very energetic. He walked over steadily and called out respectfully, “Mr. Qi…”
As he spoke, he subconsciously looked into the car. Unfortunately, because the windows were tinted, he could not see anything.
Qi Shen’s face was even colder than the winter frost. “Tell her that 1 won’t see her.”
The old man was stunned. “But Mr.. Qi…”
