Chapter 105 - 105 Pretend It Didn't Happen

105 Pretend It Didn’t Happen

He kissed her neck. “Turn around.”

“Why?”

“So that I can kiss you.”

Lin Jiao’s heart melted when she heard that.

She leaned against his chest and let him touch her affectionately under the dim moonlight.

When the passionate kiss ended, she heard her heart beating in her ears, and she was filled with indescribable joy.

“It’s time to take a shower.” Pei Zhi looked up at the clock on the wall and turned off the television.

“I’ll reply to them first.”

“Then I’ll go run a bath.”

“Okay.” Lin Jiao chatted with her besties for a while.

She took out the underwear from the bag and walked to the sink. “Uncle, where’s the laundry detergent?”

“The balcony,” Pei Zhi mopped the floor as he replied.

He pointed at the blue tub on the shelf. “Put the clothes in there. I’ll wash them later.”

Lin Jiao said softly, “Help me close the door.”

Seeing that she had taken off her sweater, Pei Zhi strode out of the master bedroom and closed the door.

He walked to the window to smoke and reply to the missed call.

“Boss.” Without waiting for him to speak, Qu Shao took the initiative to report, “Ven Olle only found out that one person has plans to return to the country.”

“When?”

“At the end of next month.”

“It’s fine.” Pei Zhi was not in a hurry.

He tapped the ashtray twice. “Have you settled the assets under He Qi’s name?”

“Pretty much.”

“How did his parents react?”

“No reaction so far.” Qu Shao paused for a moment before continuing, “His father has two illegitimate children outside. He probably won’t help him.”

“Then get them to find something for He Qi to do.”

“No problem.”

Pei Zhi stubbed out the cigarette between his fingers.

The smoke around him was blown away by the warm wind when he turned around.

At the same time, He Qi, who was lying in the VIP ward, stared at the person he had been dreaming about and had no clue as to what was in store for him.

He held the hand placed on the edge of the bed. “Tian, what brought you here?”

Su Tian did not withdraw her hand. “I was doing hair with a friend nearby and happened to pass by.”

“Where’s Brother Quan?”

“He’s out socializing.”

“Does he know you’re here?” He Qi played with her fingertips, as if they were priceless gold.

Ever since the hug that day, his desire had grown stronger, and even his actions were bolder than before.

“I haven’t told him yet.” Su Tian moved the chair closer to him and asked in a low voice, “Have you found out anything about Lin Jiao?”

“She was discharged from the hospital a long time ago.”

“Did the police come to see you?”

He Qi sneered. “Do you think she dares to call the police?”

He took one more bold move to link his fingers with hers, enjoying the excitement that it brought.

“I mean what if…”

“There’s no what if. If she’s going to call the police, she’d have done that long ago.”

Su Tian was still afraid that the police would suddenly come looking for her.

She looked up at him with her soft eyes. “Will you protect me?”

“I will.”

“No matter what happens?”

Su Tian’s loving gaze made He Qi feel consumed by an urge to make her his woman.

He gestured for her to sit on the bed. When he smelt the perfume on her body, he pulled her into his arms.

“He Qi…” Su Tian exclaimed. He Qi was so out of his mind that even her struggle looked cute to him.

“Just call me Qi.”

“Let go of me first.”

“I can’t.” He Qi pinched her chin and looked at her juicy lips.

Sensing what he wanted to do, Su Tian pushed his shoulder with a red face. “He Qi, don’t be like this.”

“Like what?”

“You… Mmph.”

He Qi finally had a taste of what he had been longing for.

He held the back of her head and went from probing to kissing passionately, wanting more and more.

The unexpected kiss lasted a long time.

Su Tian, whose eyes welled up with tears, quickly turned around.

She sniffed. “You’re too much!”

“I’m sorry.” He Qi kissed away the tear and tightened his grip on her. “I couldn’t help it.”

“We’ll both die if Quan finds out.”

“He doesn’t know anyway.”

Su Tian couldn’t help but sob. “Whether he knows it or not, it’s wrong for you to kiss me.”

“Then do you like me kissing you?”

“I don’t like it!”

“Really?” He Qi scratched her chin, his eyes looking like they wanted to wrap her up tightly. “I don’t believe what you said.”

Su Tian did not reply.

She got out of bed and took out the mirror from her bag to touch up her lipstick, refusing to let him come any closer.

“Tian.” He Qi held her hand and said, “I won’t do this to you anymore, okay? Don’t be angry.”

“I can pretend that nothing happened just now, but there won’t be a next time, understand?”

“Understood.”

His eyes were filled with love and obedience.

She sat back on the bed and placed her fingertips on the wounds on his arm. “Did you find out about the group of people who kidnapped you to the boxing arena?”

“No.” A trace of ruthlessness flashed across He Qi’s eyes. “My father is still investigating.”

“Who do you think did it?”

“I can’t say for sure.”

“Don’t worry. We’ll get to the bottom of it eventually.” Considering that he was still useful to her, Su Tian gave him a hug.

Her warmth provided him more comfort and relief than anything could bring.

He Qi was even more eager to have her. “I’ll be discharged next Saturday. Are you free?”

“I think so.”

“Then I’ll wait for you.”

“Okay.” Su Tian left quickly.

She took a taxi back to Lufu Bay and changed out of her disinfectant-stained clothes. She sat in the living room and waited for Gu Quan to return.

At one in the morning, footsteps sounded.

Before Gu Quan could get close to the door of the villa, he vomited in the courtyard.

His drunken state gave Su Tian a chance.

“Quan, let me help you upstairs.” She restrained the joy in her eyes and brought him back to his room.

She found red ink and placed it on the bedside table. After kicking off her slippers, she fed him a few mouthfuls of water.

“Turn off the lights.” Gu Quan narrowed his eyes, clearly not used to the dazzling light coming from above.

“You haven’t taken off your clothes yet.”

“No need.”

Seeing that he wanted to lie back, Su Tian quickly hugged his arm and took nearly ten minutes to help him take his clothes off.

She left a night lamp and stared at the face that fascinated her. “Quan, who am I?”

“Who?”

“I’m asking you who I am.”

Gu Quan frowned and glanced at her. Perhaps because he was slow to react, he did not give her an answer for a long time.

Su Tian repeated the question a few times before finally getting an answer.

“Su Tian.” The smell of alcohol on his breath made her heart race and she couldn’t help but laugh.

Gu Quan ignored her strange behavior.

As soon as he closed his eyes, he felt a warmth on his lips.

“Quan.” In order to carve a stronger memory in his brain, Su Tian deliberately whispered into his ear.

“What?”

“Are you playing dumb?”

Gu Quan did not understand at all.
