Chapter 22 The Heiress Who Was Rejected from the Engagement
Zhou Ziheng held her in his arms, as if he wanted to meld her into his very bones.
On this night, the vulnerabilities and unspeakable feelings hidden deep in my heart finally found a way out.
He could use the darkness of night to express his unease and seek her comfort.
She said she would love him even more.
"I love you," he whispered in Ling Yi's ear, his voice barely audible.
I also fear you.
My love for you is as radiant as the blazing sun, yet I fear you may not know why you love me.
When falling in love becomes too easy, a sense of unreality takes over.
Zhou Ziheng is immersed in love every day, but she is also constantly afraid that he will take back her love one by one.
He could die in the cold night, but he could not die after seeing the light of day.
But today, she easily soothed this deep-seated unease.
She witnessed all his flaws, yet she still didn't choose to leave him.
Amidst the man's melancholy yet joyful emotions, Lingyi gently stroked his back, comforting his overly agitated feelings.
After a long silence, she spoke softly: "No matter what you look like, you are the most important and the most unique to me."
Ling Yi absorbed countless complex emotions from him, making her happy and sad, and giving her genuine compassion for humanity, even though he was so powerful.
Without her close relationship with him, and without the nourishment provided by his complicated past, Ling Yi would never have been able to understand these things, no matter how much time passed.
Therefore, Zhou Ziheng is important to her.
Even if one day their love changes and they are no longer partners, he will still be an important part of her future.
The woman's soft kiss landed on Zhou Ziheng's hair, filled with all her tenderness, immersing Zhou Ziheng in the feeling of being loved wholeheartedly.
He subconsciously reached for Ling Yi's lips, searching for more ways to get closer to her.
Her heart is warm, and she is a warm person.
Her beautiful eyes would well up with a hint of water, showing anger and infatuation, drawing him into the same desires.
No longer holding back, Zhou Ziheng placed Ling Yi's hand on his chest, letting her feel his love without any obstruction, and feel his heart beating for her.
In that cage he had never left, he was reborn.
The presence of his lover easily overshadowed his unpleasant memories of this existence.
Clothes stretched out from the front door, and Zhou Ziheng led Ling Yi on a tour of his past in a different way.
“Here, I heard them say that it would have been better if I hadn’t come back.” Zhou Ziheng’s voice was hoarse as he gently kissed Ling Yi’s collarbone.
“Here, I heard them say they were going to send me abroad.” He then pinned the person against another spot that had caused him pain.
But this time, he was no longer overwhelmed by memories.
A soft female voice soothed all his pain as his lover kissed his cheek and told him that everything was over.
So he took her to his victorious lair, which was also the prison that had confined him for years, and there he became one with her completely.
Bathed in the moonlight, Ling Yi saw the man's disheveled hair and dark eyes.
Beads of sweat slid down his high, straight nose and landed on her collarbone, where they were gently kissed away by the man.
A deep, hoarse laugh, as if polished by metal and stone, resounded in her ears. She heard him calling her name again and again, leading her into a world she had never known before.
It was exhilarating, novel, and captivating.
Her slender, snow-white legs left faint marks on the dark sheets, which then disappeared into the moonlight.
Only when the restless atmosphere completely subsided did the two, like mandarin ducks entwined, fall into a deep sleep.
Ling Yi buried her face in the cool chest, her slightly reddened eyes telling the story of the absurdity that had just happened.
Unconsciously, Zhou Ziheng hugged the person even tighter in his sleep.
After the floodgates were opened, he could no longer control his desire to be near her.
As the moon and the sun revolved, Lingyi's cell phone, which had been lying on the floor, started buzzing incessantly, disturbing her peaceful sleep.
Zhou Ziheng was the first to open his eyes, and the vast expanse of sunlight that greeted him made him momentarily dazed.
His sleep quality has always been poor, yet he was able to sleep so soundly under this almost blinding sunlight; it was truly...
The man, just waking up, exuded a lazy aura. The blanket had slipped down to just cover his waist as he moved.
Therefore, the neck and collarbone where kisses had been placed, and the back where unbearable scratches had been left, were clearly visible in the sunlight.
Instead of feeling ashamed, the person involved acted brazenly.
The phone stopped vibrating briefly, then continued to vibrate persistently. Seeing that Ling Yi's brows were furrowed, Zhou Ziheng reluctantly kissed her forehead and picked up the phone.
"Yi-yi, do you know? Qi Qingran has been castrated!" A hurried voice came from the other end of the phone, and the bombshell news instantly sobered Zhou Ziheng up.
"Wait a moment." Without hesitation, Zhou Ziheng immediately decided to wake Ling Yi.
Knowing about this good news even a second later would be disrespectful to Yi-Yi.
The gossiping voice on the other end of the phone stopped abruptly, and Shi Ling, the "little loudspeaker," looked at her phone in disbelief.
what?
man?
Ling Yi disappeared for so long, did she actually go to find a man?
With such excellent secrecy skills, did you work for the Military Intelligence Bureau?
Wait, why is this man answering Ling Yi's call so early in the morning?
Has she discovered something incredible?
As her mind raced through images of yellow waste, Ling Yi's hoarse voice came through: "What's wrong?"
In an instant, Shi Ling tossed the unimportant man behind her and began to tell her with great interest about her enemy getting his comeuppance.
In short, yesterday Qi Qingran got drunk at a bar and accidentally discovered his fiancée, with whom he was about to be married, getting intimate with another man. Out of resentment, he went up to her and started causing a scene.
Putting aside the fact that they had already agreed not to interfere with each other, the fact that he pointed at someone's nose and cursed them as unchaste and shameless is unacceptable.
It's not even close to being settled yet, and you're already asking cyberbullying to remain chaste? Isn't that a bit much?
When the young lady's male companion saw that her expression had changed, he, being a free-fighting enthusiast, immediately gave Qi Qingran a real lesson.
During their fight, the man, who was also drunk, got carried away and smashed a bottle over a golden egg, sending Qi Qingran flying and his egg flying.
"It is said that there was blood everywhere at the time," Shi Ling said with great interest, even though she had a small cut on her hand and would groan for a long time. "Those present saw that the broken wine bottle seemed to have cut the egg, and the chicken seemed to be left with only a layer of skin."
"Cough cough cough..." Ling Yi choked as she took the water cup from Zhou Ziheng.
"That's enough, that's enough, no need to go into so much detail."
Having just experienced it herself, Ling Yi felt her phantom limbs begin to ache just thinking about the scene.
