Shen Qiqi still wanted to move, but Han Zhao looked up at her and said, "If you dare to move again, I will..."
As he spoke, Shen Qixi suddenly leaned forward, bringing them so close that their noses almost touched. Han Zhao instinctively took a step back.
Shen Qiqi glanced at him sideways, a mixture of smugness and disappointment in her eyes.
Finally, she parted her lips slightly and uttered a soft, "Coward."
"Is he a coward?" Han Zhao laughed in anger. He found that this little guy was really getting bolder. He had been cursing and mocking him all night.
The next second, Han Zhao sneered and bent down to get closer to her.
This time, their noses didn't just almost touch; they actually bumped into each other.
Shen Qiqi was just a paper tiger. She tried to back away, but sitting in the chair, she couldn't hide at all. In the end, she was so scared that she closed her eyes.
Han Zhao was too close; the scent of the young girl filled his nostrils.
It has a slightly sweet fragrance, a pure and touching aroma.
Han Zhao closed his eyes briefly. He felt his brain was about to explode, and for a moment he had an impulse.
I have an urge to kiss her.
When Ni Jingxi got home, she happened to run into Huo Shenyan's car as it pulled up at the door. Tang Mian got out and opened the car door for him. Huo Shenyan wasn't wearing his coat, and one button on his shirt was undone.
"Have you been drinking?" Ni Jingxi asked, smelling the alcohol on him as she approached.
Tang Mian's face was flushed, and he looked like he had drunk quite a bit. He said, "I really couldn't refuse today's social engagements; they were all people from government departments."
Ni Jingxi glanced at Huo Shenyan, reached out and pulled him back, then turned to Tang Mian and said, "You go back first, I'll take care of him."
Huo Shenyan rarely gets drunk, and this was the first time Ni Jingxi had ever seen him so dazed.
Tang Mian nodded and turned to leave.
Ni Jingxi looked up at the man beside her in the cool moonlight and asked in a low voice, "How are you? Are you feeling particularly unwell?"
Huo Shenyan wasn't really drunk, he was just a little confused from drinking.
At this moment, he looked down at Ni Jingxi intently and called out softly, "Jingxi."
Ni Jingxi responded, thinking he was going to say something, but he just called out. Helpless, Ni Jingxi pulled him home; Ni Pingsen was already asleep.
As Ni Jingxi pulled him upstairs, halfway down the stairs, he suddenly called out again, "Xingxing."
Ni Jingxi knew he had drunk too much, but she still turned around and answered seriously.
Suddenly, Huo Shenyan bent down and hugged her. His body was so hot, the kind of heat that comes naturally after drinking alcohol, and it was transmitted to her through a thin shirt.
Ni Jingxi's skin was branded with these scalding hot marks.
Huo Shenyan's cheek was pressed against her neck, his warm breath carrying her. Ni Jingxi didn't urge him, but simply let him hold her quietly like that.
Until he whispered, "Don't go."
These three words were like a knife piercing her heart, cutting through her flesh and causing her excruciating pain.
Because there was a hint of pleading in his tone.
Ni Jingxi could hardly believe how he, so aloof and indifferent, could utter those three words, and in such a tone. Perhaps only when alcohol numbed his reason could he utter his deepest fears in such a way.
Ni Jingxi's body trembled slightly until she gently turned away from his embrace. She cupped his face in her hands and whispered, "Shenyan, can you see me clearly?"
Huo Shenyan's eyes gradually regained their focus after being unfocused and dazed.
Those deep, dark eyes seemed to hold a whirlpool within them, slowly drawing her in.
Ni Jingxi reached out and hugged him, stood on tiptoe and whispered close to his ear, "I won't leave, I'll never leave."
Seeing what happened to her parents now, it's as if those deep memories of love have simply vanished.
So how could she bear to leave him again?
She wanted to remember everything about him for the rest of her life and stay by his side.
I'm not leaving. This time, I'm not leaving even if you kill me.
Finally, Ni Jingxi managed to get Huo Shenyan into the room. After he sat down on the bed, Ni Jingxi started to take off his clothes. Since his shirt was also covered in the smell of alcohol, she simply took it all off.
When Ni Jingxi picked up the collar of her shirt, she suddenly felt something protruding from the back.
She looked down and saw a star inside the collar of his shirt. Ni Jingxi froze, and after a long while, she finally raised her hand and touched it.
The star was embroidered on.
Ni Jingxi gripped the shirt in her hand, her fingertips stiff, her mind completely blank. She touched it, and as if sensing something, she turned and headed towards the dressing room.
His clothes are all custom-made and well-maintained, which Ni Jingxi rarely pays attention to.
It wasn't until she opened the closet full of shirts and randomly picked one out that she noticed a star on the inside of the collar.
One, two... until she searched through all his shirts.
Each shirt has a star inside the collar.
Chapter 69
The villa was bathed in sunlight in the early morning, exuding a fresh and pleasant atmosphere. The nanny, Aunt Qian, arrived home early, only to find Ni Jingxi already in the kitchen.
"Jingxi, why are you up so early?" Aunt Qian quickly grabbed her apron and prepared to put it on.
Ni Jingxi glanced back and smiled, "It's nothing, I just wanted to make breakfast for Shenyan."
Aunt Qian had always called her "Madam," but Ni Jingxi found it really hard to get used to. After all, it was a bit awkward for a young woman in her twenties to be addressed as "Auntie."
Nowadays, Aunt Qian also calls her Jingxi. When they are at work, Aunt Qian only needs to clean the house.
At this moment, Aunt Qian sighed softly and said, "Jingxi, there's something I want to tell you."
"What's wrong?" Ni Jingxi turned to look at her and asked.
Aunt Qian seemed to have found someone to make the decision, and said, "Could you talk to Mr. Ni and ask if I could cook from now on?"
Ni Pingsen has been staying here recently. Aunt Qian was originally going to cook for him, but Ni Pingsen took over the cooking, making Aunt Qian feel terrified every time she eats.
After all, what homeowner cooks for their nanny?
Although it wasn't Ni Pingsen who paid her salary, this was Mr. Huo's father-in-law. How could Aunt Qian, who had been here for so long, not see how much Huo Shenyan cared about Ni Jingxi?
With him spoiling his wife so much, Aunt Qian dared not neglect Ni Pingsen.
Ni Jingxi was a little surprised: "Is Dad cooking?"
“Yes, I’ve been wanting to cook these past few days, but Mr. Ni insists on finding something to do and doesn’t want to be idle. Mr. Huo pays my salary, how can I let your father cook for me?”
Aunt Qian isn't the kind of nanny who tries to shirk her duties; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to work here for so long.
Ni Jingxi laughed and whispered, "My dad used to own a restaurant. He's a great cook, isn't he?"
Aunt Qian was amused by her appearance, but still muttered, "I know Mr. Ni is a good cook, but I can't keep having him cook for me all the time."
“Okay, I’ll tell Dad,” Ni Jingxi said with a smile.
At this moment, Huo Shenyan came downstairs. His hair was wet, indicating that he had just taken a shower that morning. When Aunt Qian saw him enter the kitchen, she quickly made an excuse to leave.
Once everyone left, Huo Shenyan hugged Ni Jingxi from behind, kissed her neck, and spoke in a slightly hoarse voice, as if he were still hungover: "Why didn't you stay and sleep a little longer with me?"
"Can't you sleep without me?" Ni Jingxi turned to look at him.
Huo Shenyan had just finished showering and his body carried a light fragrance of shower gel. Even his thin lips were rosy, somewhat like strawberries covered in morning dew.
It's so soft, it makes you really want to take a bite.
If Huo Shenyan knew what she was thinking at that moment, he would really be both amused and exasperated. But Ni Jingxi not only thought that way, she actually wanted to take a bite.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Huo Shenyan asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
Ni Jingxi chuckled softly and shook her head gently in his arms: "It's nothing."
Huo Shenyan was about to look down at what she was frying when Ni Jingxi quickly leaned over, kissed him on the lips, and then gave him a light bite.
Huo Shenyan was caught off guard by her bite.
But Ni Jingxi seemed to think she hadn't teased him enough, and actually reached out and touched his lips: "They're a little soft."
Huo Shenyan's eyes darkened.
Ni Jingxi was completely unaware of what was happening at that moment. She found the touch really comfortable and couldn't help but reach out to touch it again.
You can't touch a tiger's backside, so what about Huo Shenyan's lips?
As a result, when she touched it again, Huo Shenyan suddenly opened his lips and gently bit her finger with his teeth, licking it.
That light, gentle lick was incredibly erotic.
Ni Jingxi realized something was wrong; what had she been doing so early in the morning? She quickly turned around to continue frying the bacon in the pan.
“I’ll make you breakfast,” Ni Jingxi said dryly.
The two were so close that Ni Jingxi could feel the rising heat emanating from him. When Huo Shenyan lowered his head to kiss her, his tongue gently swept over her lips and tongue, carrying a burning sensation.
Ni Jingxi was a little anxious because there was something frying in the frying pan next to her. She squeezed out a few words from her mouth in the gap: "Pan... in the pan."
Huo Shenyan's tongue lightly entwined with hers, while his other hand slowly reached out and, with a click, turned off the gas stove.
Then came a tender, lingering kiss, so gentle and alluring that it seemed to weave a net around Ni Jingxi, making it impossible for her to escape. She tilted her head slightly, accepting this sweet and deeply moving kiss.
A kiss in the early morning.
Yet it is gentle, passionate, and carries an air of impurity.
After Huo Shenyan lightly licked the corner of her mouth one last time, their lips finally parted slightly. His nose gently touched hers, and their breaths were both a little erratic. When he spoke, his voice was even hoarser than before: "But I want to eat you..."
Ni Jingxi looked up, her eyes already a little red, whether from the kiss or something else, she couldn't tell. Looking up at him, she said, "How could you..."
How can it be so erotic?
"Your fried eggs taste pretty good," Huo Shenyan said slowly, noticing her flushed face.
Ni Jingxi's eyes widened instantly.
Huo Shenyan was amused by her reaction and leaned down to kiss her.
Ni Jingxi gestured with her chin towards the outside: "You go out first, and don't disturb me."
