It was already close to evening, and the thunder outside the window was intermittent. The rain did not seem to show any signs of abating.
The curtains were drawn, and the lights in the room were not turned on. The girl’s picturesque face was hidden in the darkness, and only her eyes were black and bright, as if they were filled with thousands of stars.
They looked at each other for more than ten seconds, and no one said a word.
Ji Yunshen turned on the lights in the room, changed into his slippers, and walked over from the porch. He very naturally took off his tie, took off his suit, and threw it on the Sofa at the side. Then, he reached out to take off his belt… …
Qiao man turned her head. For some reason, she suddenly felt that this scene was a little awkward.
The two of them had clearly been separated for a month and had not had any contact at all. The details of their previous interactions were so far away that they felt like they had been in a past life.
But in this second, those memories seemed to have returned.
“Mr. Ji, you can pick up the phone whenever you work? The rumors from last night have already spread all over the place, and today you are so high-profile. Aren’t you afraid that when this relationship is exposed to the public in the future, people will accuse you of being a sucker, and your green scarf will fly everywhere? ”
Ji Yunshen was unbuttoning his shirt when he heard Qiao Man’s words. A faint smile was hidden in his dark eyes as he said, “it’s okay, I can’t hear you. ”
Qiao man took a deep breath. She felt that there were some things that she could not communicate with this man at all.
“You’re right. If you don’t care, then there’s no need for me to care at all. ”
“Just like that? ”
The man tore off his shirt and threw it onto the SOFA. As he walked over, Qiao man felt that the other side of the bed had caved in a little. The faint smell of tobacco and the scent of mint-scented aftershave quickly took over her breath.
“Do you feel that you have nothing to fear after becoming Mrs. Ji? If this was in the past, you definitely wouldn’t have this attitude. Perhaps you would even give me a kiss or a one-night stand or something? ”
“Oh, I remember now… ” he paused and said in his usual gentle tone, “isn’t there a saying that once you get it, you won’t cherish it anymore? ”
“Mr. Ji. ” Qiao man sat up. Although she was trying her best to control the smile on the corner of her lips, there were still stars flashing in her eyes “I’m not some self-abusing personality. If I have nothing to do, I’ll go to your place to seek self-abuse. Also… … It’s only right and proper to coax you when you’re chasing after me. Now that we’re equal, you can’t expect me to coax you all the time. Besides, who doesn’t coax a man to coax a woman? When have you ever seen a woman coax a man all day long?”
“I just said a few jokes. Why do you have so many things to say to me? ” Ji Yunshen moved closer to her. His gaze lingered on her slightly bare chest for a few seconds. “Or does Mrs. Ji have the ability to coax me? Oh, that’s right. It’s commonly known as being a Hooligan! ”
Qiao man moved a little, feeling that her breathing had become smoother, she smiled and said, “that’s because you’ve never seen how capable I am. If you did, you would think that you’ve made a fortune by marrying me. ”
“For example… tattooing the name of a boyfriend you’ve been in love with for six years on the back of your ear, then washing it off and making a scar… ”
The man’s thin lips opened and closed. He clearly had the most beautiful and magnetic voice in the world, but at this moment, it made people feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
“smoking, drinking, fighting, and tattooing, I’ve done all of them. I’ve already confessed to you, don’t tell me you’re thinking of pursuing my past now? ”
Ji Yunshen’s slightly calloused palm caressed her delicate cheeks ambiguously. His Sharp Chin finally stopped on her elegant and slender neck “shouldn’t the main point be why you wash it off after you get the certificate? It’s such a secret place. Unless you do it a few more times, you won’t be able to see it. Why are you panicking? ”
“Did you really go to America on a business trip for a month? ” Qiao man stepped back a little, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed. “Or have you been sending people to follow me? Otherwise, why would you know so much about what I’ve done in this month? ”
Suddenly, she felt a lingering fear. In this one month, she had done more than this.
He… … Did he know everything ? Otherwise, why did it happen to be a month ? ?
The time was just right. It was neither early nor late, neither long nor short.
“From Mrs. Ji’s tone, it seems that she did more than this? ”
The man leaned against the headboard of the bed, scooped up the cigarette case and lighter on the nightstand with his long arm, and lit a cigarette. “But… Mrs. Ji has so many little secrets, I wonder which one she’s referring to? ”
He didn’t deny sending people around her, nor did he deny that he knew something. She was a little flustered, but she still forced herself to remain calm.
“If you already knew, why did you use such a method to test me? ”
Qiao man brushed her waist-length black hair and blinked. “Mr. Ji, if you want to know something, just ask me! I won’t deny it, and I won’t lie! ”
“You’re still quite confident? ”
The man’s deep eyes looked over through the thin layer of smoke. Suddenly, he reached out and pinched her chin. “If I ask, will Mrs. Ji Label me as a b * Stard Stalker, and also an uninterested person? ”
Qiao man bit her lip and was a little angry. She was angry at this man’s transparency and even more angry at his strategy.
In front of him, she was like a transparent person. As long as there was even the slightest movement, it would not be able to hide from his eyes.
“I didn’t say that. If you must think of me like that, I have no choice! ”
Qiao man spread her hands and looked very innocent.
The man’s grip became a little heavier. He was satisfied to see the woman’s face showing a hint of pain. Then, he smiled and said, “is Jiang Yingdong really that charming? So charming that Mrs. Ji Needs to swipe my card to… Give Him Money? ”
As expected, he didn’t hide it from him.
She had thought about Ji Yunshen’s various reactions after he found out about it. She had even dreamed that he had punched and kicked her.
But when this moment really came, he was still as calm as a breeze, as if he was… … indulging …
She didn’t know if she could understand it that way?
Qiao man suddenly felt relieved. She put one hand on her knee and the other on her cheek, looking at the man who was puffing and puffing “How can you not be angry? Do you want me to apologize, or do you want to take back my card? Or do you want to… directly embarrass me? ”
“Just a few words and you’ve completely forgotten about yourself. Do you think I’m as easy to fool as a three-year-old child? ”
Ji Yunshen put out the half-lit cigarette in the ashtray on the bedside table. His eyes, hidden behind the smoke, became even deeper “I’m just curious, do you women like men like Jiang Yingdong, who can only rely on women to get to the top? Do you find men like that particularly attractive? Especially… manly? ”
“Of course, I respect everyone’s preferences, but Mrs. Ji’s preferences… Aren’t they a little too low? ”
Was there finally a personal attack?
However, her tone was much better than she had imagined. It could even be said to be gentle.
Qiao man switched to resting her chin on her hands with a smile on her face. “then… I have to admit that I’m in love with you. Isn’t that too low? ”
“It’s also low! ” The man took the cigarette case and lit a cigarette. He held it in his hand and did not smoke. He just lit it up. “The love that you admit in order to escape is even lower than the scene where you and your ex-boyfriend are still together. It can be said that… it’s too low. ”
“Alright! ” Qiao man suddenly moved closer to him and drew circles on his chest with her white fingers. “Then just take it that I was joking just now. ”
After saying that, she was about to step back, but the man pulled her back again. “When? ”
Qiao man was stunned for a moment. She did not quite understand what he said!
“When did you fall in love with me? Tell me about it. ”
The man took a deep breath of the cigarette in his hand. His voice was hoarse from inhaling and exhaling. “Did you make up this sentence to calm me down, but you didn’t make up the time? ”
Qiao man rolled her eyes and climbed onto his body. “I fell in love with you the moment I saw you. ”
“Do you think I would believe such a lie? ” The man pinched her nose, and his tone was not very satisfied. “Mrs. Ji, are you being so perfunctory to please me now? ”
The two of them stared at each other through the smoke for a few seconds. Qiao man propped herself up, moved her Cherry Lips closer, and kissed his thin lips.
Probably when she took the initiative, he was used to cooperating. This time, it was clear that the man did not intend to cooperate.
Although her reputation was not good, it did not mean that she was experienced. On the contrary, she was still a conservative person.
Even the first kiss with Jiang Yingdong was on their fourth birthday.
The atmosphere that night was very good. In addition to the heckling from her friends, the alcohol stimulated the raging hormones. Only then did she agree to kiss him.
Although she had also seen those Japanese movies, when it was her turn to do it herself, she still could not do the seductive and seductive poses of those women.
After kissing for a while, her breathing became unstable and she left. Her eyes were a little messy.
Ji Yunshen did not move. Instead, he put the cigarette to his mouth and took a deep breath. “Mrs. Ji, with this little bit of Kung Fu, you are actually regarded as a representative of the fickle women in forest city’s media and the entire people of forest city. I really want to know, are they blind? ”
“Are you feeling unfair for me, or… are you praising me for being able to act! ”
Qiao man retreated, as if because of his uncooperative attitude, she suddenly felt a little emotional, although she could not explain why she felt this way.
“I won’t say anymore, I’m going out for dinner. ”
Just as she turned around, she was pulled back by the man’s big hand. “Your expression is similar to that of a man who can’t satisfy you. If you go out like this, I’ll lose face. ”
Qiao man smiled brightly, her long black hair made her smile look even more exquisite. “Don’t worry, if others ask me, I’ll say that Mr. Ji is great, ten times a night. ”
“provocation? ” Ji Yunshen put out the cigarette in his hand, suddenly turned around and pressed her under him. “Try it tonight, next time you can show off to them… ”
He paused, and his voice was almost close to her ear. “Say it to me twenty times in one night. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the man’s lips fell heavily, savoring her sweetness roughly. The strong and unique scent of male hormones assaulted her from all directions.
It entered her nose and mouth, causing Qiao Man’s heart to beat wildly.
The next second, his tongue barged in, churning wildly.
This kind of violent kiss soon made her lips hurt to the point of numbness. Soon, her lips became red and swollen.
His hand deftly tore off her pajamas. She could feel his body getting tighter and stiffer.
In a flash, she regained some of her rationality. Her small hand pressed on his shoulder, but she could not exert any strength at all.
“wait a minute… ”
The man propped himself up and looked at her. Her blushing face already made him unable to control himself.
“What? ”
“that… you’re too fast. I didn’t have time to say that My… relatives are here! ”
The man’s face went from red to white, from white to black. He gritted his teeth and said, “Qiao Man, you did it on purpose! ”
“You were too impatient! ” Qiao man shrunk her neck and hit his chest with her pink fist. She said Shyly, “you didn’t give me a chance to speak at all. ”
The man sighed as if he was very helpless. “You have the most unreasonable arguments in a day. It’s a typical unreasonable argument. ”
After saying that, the man got off the bed and ran into the bathroom. In the frosted glass, it was the man’s figure rushing towards the cold water.
The corners of Qiao Man’s lips curled up, and her eyes sparkled even more brightly.
…
Ten minutes later, Ji Yunshen walked out of the bathroom. He was wearing a loose white bathrobe, and his long and slender hands were holding a white towel as he wiped his wet hair.
Qiao man was leaning against the window, looking at the rain outside.
Hearing the footsteps, she turned around and said in a wronged tone, “Ji Yunshen… I’m hungry. ”
“What do you want to eat? ”
The man sat on the bed and asked while wiping his hair, “do you want to eat out or in the room? ”
Qiao man had been cooped up in her room for a whole day and felt a little bored, so she said, “let’s eat out. ”
“Okay! ”
Ten minutes later, the two of them changed their clothes and walked out of the room together.
Ji Yunshen was just about to hug her and walk forward when he bumped into Mu Xi. Of course, Mu Xi also saw the two of them, especially the deep and shallow hickeys on Qiao Man’s neck.
Qiao man held the big hand on the woman’s waist and poked it. Then she smiled stiffly and said, “Auntie… good evening. ”
Mu Xi nodded and turned to look at Ji Yunshen. “Ji Yunshen, you’re usually so tired from work, so you should be more restrained in that aspect. Aren’t you afraid that you’ll tire yourself out? ”
“With Mrs. Ji’s appearance, do you think a man can endure it? ”
Ji Yunshen took Qiao man into his arms again. In front of Mu Xi, he seemed to be avoiding everything. “Besides, Mrs. Ji just complimented me ten times a night. I can’t admit defeat in front of outsiders, right? ”
How many years had it been Mu Xi could not remember how many years it had been since they had talked so casually.
This little girl… … was really so charming ?
“You’re almost 30 years old, and you can’t even speak properly. ”
Mu Xi rolled her eyes at him, then smiled and said, “are you going to eat? I’m going too, let’s go together! ”
After saying that, Mu Xi did not even look at the two of them and directly walked towards the hotel restaurant.
Qiao man nervously tugged at Ji Yunshen’s Hem and said in a very low voice, “Hey, why are you meeting the parents in such a hurry? I didn’t prepare anything. ”
“What do you want to prepare? ”
Ji Yunshen raised his beautiful eyebrows and looked at her. “My mother wants to have a grandchild the most right now. If you want to prepare, I don’t mind. ”
Qiao Man stomped on her high heels. Her face was as red as an apple. She bit her lip and said, “Humph, you wish. Who would be drunk enough to give birth to your child? ”
“sooner or later? ”
Ji Yunshen held her and walked forward, following a few meters behind Mu Xi. “It’s okay if you recover from the early birth. You can also stabilize your position in the JI family. Don’t tell me you haven’t thought about it. ”
She had thought about it, but it was only limited to thinking about it.
She did not want her child to live in a family without love, and she did not want her child to grow up in a single-parent family.
After much consideration, she decided that she could not have a child for the time being, at least not until she had settled down in the JI family.
…
The hotel’s restaurant mainly served western food, and Qiao man did not like Western food. At Ji Yunshen’s request, the five-star chef of the Western restaurant made a table full of Chinese food, feeling very wronged.
“Mom, Qiao man likes spicy food, try to choose dishes that are not spicy… ”
Before Ji Yunshen could finish, Qiao man interrupted him, “Auntie, why didn’t you say earlier that you can’t eat spicy food? It’s not like I have to eat spicy food… ”
Qiao man glanced at Mu Xi who was sitting opposite her and said anxiously, “seriously, how could you let the elders accommodate me? ”
Mu Xi had never taken a closer look at Qiao man before. Now that she had taken a closer look, she realized that Qiao man was indeed not bad looking. Her character was not bad as well. In terms of upbringing… … She seemed to be even better …
She was starting to like her. No wonder her son liked her so much.
“It’s okay. I haven’t eaten with him for a long time. He probably doesn’t know that I can eat spicy food now. ”
Qiao man did not know whether Mu Xi’s words were true or not, but… …
She seemed to have accepted herself, or rather, she was trying to accept herself.
Ji Yunshen indeed didn’t know. After he became an adult, he seemed to have had three meals with her in his memory, and they were all at the old residence, so it was normal that he didn’t know.
“then we can eat together as a family in the future. ”
Ji Yunshen’s words stunned Qiao Man and Mu Xi.
The long-lost warmth flowed through their hearts like a warm current.
Mu Xi took the cup in front of her and took a SIP. “If I remember correctly, your stomach isn’t good and you can’t eat spicy food. Why? Have you changed your eating habits for your little wife? ”
Ji Yunshen nodded. “For the sake of a harmonious life in the future, someone has to make a change. ”
It seemed that there was nothing wrong with marrying a wife. At least, he had stopped thinking about it.
It was not like before, where no one could enter his world. At least now, he could not cater to them, but he would not be so resistant.
After saying that, he took out a cigarette from his cigarette box, lit it up, and started smoking.
Mu Xi frowned and could not help but Nag, “did you ignore what I said? Didn’t you say that you hurt your lungs? Why are you still smoking? ”
Speaking of this, Mu Xi paused and looked at Qiao man, “man man, you should control him in the future. You should control him when he smokes and drinks, so that he doesn’t know his limits. ”
Qiao man smiled as if Mu Xi was talking about a fantasy. How could Ji Yunshen listen to her?
However, she did not say it out loud. Instead, she answered calmly, “I know, Auntie… ”
“Didn’t you guys get married? ” Mu Xi’s beautiful eyes had a layer of ambiguous emotions, “why are you still calling me Auntie? ”
“Alright mom, stop teasing her. ”
Ji Yunshen interrupted Mu Xi at the right time. “The wedding hasn’t been held yet. It’s too early for her to call you mom now. We have to give her some time to get used to it, right? ”
“Are you starting to protect your daughter-in-law now? ”
Mu Xi took another sip of the white paper. She smiled and took out a gift box from the bag in the seat next to her and pushed it in front of Qiao Man “This was given to me by my mother-in-law when Xiao Shen’s father and I were married. Now I’m giving it to you. I hope that you two will have a happy marriage and grow old together. ”
Qiao man looked at Ji Yunshen in a panic. He was quietly inhaling and exhaling. No one could guess his emotions, so she did not dare to make any decisions.
“Auntie, this is too expensive… ”
Mu Xi smiled. Her exquisite face shone with the radiance of a mother’s love under the light. “It will be yours sooner or later, but I gave it to you in advance. Xiao Shen may look cold, but he’s actually very sensitive. As long as you don’t go overboard, the two of you will live a very happy life. ”
Qiao man did not know why Mu Xi would say that. She thought for a moment and said, “I won’t go overboard. He’s the only one who goes overboard with me. ”
In front of the elders, Qiao man had always been an obedient girl. Although her reputation as a wolf would make many people think that her upbringing was not good, in fact, Qin Yulan paid a lot of attention to her upbringing.
It was just that… … She rarely revealed her true side …
It was probably because no matter what she did, others would think that she was acting.
As time passed, she put on the mask.
