It was raining all the way, Bian Yue sat in the passenger seat, looking at Shen Jinci’s aloof and noble profile.
He didn’t speak, very calm, his deanor like deeper water under still surfaces.
Finally, at a red light mont, Bian Yue couldn’t help but speak up, softly saying, "Shen Jinci, don’t you have anything you want to ask ?"
"Like what?"
"Like, what we talked about in Li Sihe’s hospital room."
"If you want to tell , you would have said it."
The windshield wipers swept away the wet streaks, the red light splashing.
Bian Yue gripped her hands tightly, she gathered her courage, quietly said, "I asked everything, we cleared it all up."
Shen Jinci turned his face towards her.
His expression was even gentle, his slender hand lightly lifted, touched Bian Yue’s hair, he said, "That’s good then, that it’s all cleared up."
Bian Yue’s heart seed to be tightly grasped, unable to breathe.
Her breathing was hurried, her face slightly reddened, finally, she gathered enough courage, said, "Actually, what I wanted to tell you isn’t that."
Shen Jinci asked her what she wanted to say.
Bian Yue said, "What I wanted to tell you is... I won’t have any more hang-ups, Shen Jinci, I know what you want to do, you want to let go of the past, and I’ve let it go, I thank you for your respect, thank you for... never putting on the spot."
Shen Jinci thought, his Little Yue, indeed is smart and beautiful.
She truly understands everything, it’s just her appearance that’s too deceptive, making people feel she’s harmlessly naive.
Clearly, she’s not soone to be held within the palms.
Luckily, Shen Jinci had no intentions of controlling nor dictating her in any way.
So he just raised his hand, caught Bian Yue’s neck, pulling her close to himself.
He kissed her lips, thodically deepening it, prying open her pearly teeth.
It was as if he was exploring a complex and profound subject, patiently yet very aggressively.
Bian Yue was stunned, never expecting Shen Jinci to suddenly kiss her.
And as Shen Jinci saw her in a daze, his hand unnoticeably tightened, clasping her nape even more firmly.
Bian Yue instinctively opened her mouth, thus the kiss deepened.
Inside the car, the temperature, against the backdrop of the heater, grew ambiguously hot.
Bian Yue’s gaze started to blur, looking at Shen Jinci as if her eyes had lost focus.
Her eyes, teary, wetly looking at him, she appeared obedient yet evoking a desire to ravage.
Shen Jinci lowered his gaze, his eyes falling on her moistly enticing rosy lips.
He pressed with his fingertips forcefully, eliciting a trembling voice from Bian Yue, "You.... why did you suddenly kiss ?"
Shen Jinci felt her pitiful look was really adorable, so he watched her for a long while before he spoke, his voice lazy and husky, "Don’t know, just suddenly felt like kissing."
Bian Yue pursed her lips, her feelings very complex.
She sat properly, looking ahead, but her heart was uncontrollably racing.
Bian Yue didn’t know what was wrong with herself.
She seed... very nervous, very surprised.
But upon closer inspection, she could not resist.
So, Bian Yue did not dare to delve deeper.
She bowed her head, looking at her own fingers, her heart in turmoil....
In the hospital room, Li Sihe still maintained the posture from earlier, half propped up on the hospital bed.
As soon as Su Youxue entered, she saw Li Sihe in a trance and could not help but feel heartache.
She placed the insulated bucket on the ground beside, hurriedly ca forward, and supported Li Sihe, her voice faint with pain: "Mr. Li, please take care of your body, do not sit like this. You just ca out of the operation room."
Hearing Su Youxue’s voice, Li Sihe ca back to his senses.
He brushed away Su Youxue’s hand, his gaze landing on Su Youxue’s anxious face, he spoke blandly: "Who asked you to co here?"
Su Youxue’s expression stiffened, her innocent face showing grievance, "Do you really not want to see ? I... I was upstairs, heard the noise downstairs, and worried, so I ca down."
"You can go back now," Li Sihe paused, then added: "Go back to Wang Dan’an’s place. As for resources, I will not give less than what I promised before. I will give them to you."
Su Youxue’s eyes involuntarily widened, looking at Li Sihe with grievance, her nasal passages seed blocked, her voice tinged with bitterness, "Mr. Li... I don’t know what I did wrong, why you suddenly want to leave."
"It’s not sudden, it’s just that I really don’t need anyone here, if you really want to find a sugar daddy, I can introduce you to soone." Li Sihe’s voice was still so calm, nonchalantly speaking such cruel words.
Su Youxue, after all, was too young, standing no chance against a determined and relentless man.
Unable to control the tears in her eyes, her grievances deepened until her eyes turned red, her fair face completely dismal, "Mr. Li, I didn’t co to you for money, I truly... fell in love with you at first sight."
Love at first sight?
Li Sihe’s expression montarily turned dreamy.
Indeed, he had fallen in love with Bian Yue at first sight.
Above the roof of Bian Family’s mourning hall, he saw Bian Yue squatting in the torrential rain, her face raised in a miserable state looking at him, and for the first ti in his life, he felt the desire to protect soone.
That’s why, all these years, he cared so much about Zhou Quan.
Later, it was really when things ca to a head, and he couldn’t face them.
In extre pain, people tend to make many irrational decisions.
Like betrayal.
Of course, he had many excuses, such as to push Bian Yue further away, to let Bian Yue completely give up hope, to completely prevent her from being exploited by the Li Family.
But the truth of the matter was, he cared too much about Bian Yue, cared so much that he allowed others to deliberately get close to numb himself.
Like the Su Youxue standing in front of him.
Li Sihe gently lifted Su Youxue’s chin, looking at her aggrieved face with a tone gentle and warm, yet fundantally indifferent, "Su Youxue, there is absolutely no sentint between us, do not overstep."
"Mr. Li says there are no feelings between us? Yes, no feelings, haha." Su Youxue’s smile was dire, watching as Li Sihe quietly lay down, showing a disposition of no longer planning to engage in any more conversation, a sorrow grew within her.
After a brief silence, Su Youxue clenched her hand, her gaze shattered yet resolute, her voice trembling even more, "Just now at the elevator, I t Bian Yue, Mr. Li, is she the girl you like?"
Upon hearing the words ’Bian Yue’, the gentleness in Li Sihe’s eyes faded, he raised his eyes toward Su Youxue, his warning tone cold and stern, "Do not disturb Bian Yue, otherwise, do not bla for being ruthless."
Su Youxue thought, indeed, love and non-love at clear at a glance.
She took a step back, suddenly picked up the insulated bucket beside her, murmuring softly: "I know, I won’t, I know Mr. Li just had surgery, probably not much appetite, I stewed so sweet soup, have a taste."
After speaking, Su Youxue placed the insulated bucket on the nearby table, unscrewed it, the aroma of longan spreading out.
Su Youxue softly said, "Mr. Li, please enjoy, I’ll leave now."
Li Sihe, sniffing the scent of the longan sweet soup, suddenly grasped Su Youxue’s hand, he said, "Stay."
