Chapter 543 Not That Easy to Escape
On the first day he meets Jing Shu, he just feels that the girl is tough and enthusiastic about life.
After spending some time together, he finds that the girl is more enthusiastic about life than he imagined.
Who won’t be drawn towards her vibrant personality?
But the question is that affection does not stand for love.
If he says he loves her, he will be lying to both Jing Shu and himself.
He and she can be close friends, but speaking of lovers... Zhang Hai lets out a sigh.
“Shu, I do like you. We... We can be good friends.”
Though no one should pass up a sure thing, he has to be genuine and open as he is a soldier.
Zhang Hai has stated clearly what he wants their relationship to be by this sentence. Jing Shu’s heart sinks as she feels more and more helpless...
He just likes her.
He and she are just friends.
Jing Shu’s eyes are blurring. She bites her lips, holding back the tears. If she were a man, she would definitely choose a woman like Christine, too.
“Can you tell me how I can be your girlfriend?” She is not the kind of girl who gives up easily.
She knows that love cannot be importuned, but she still wants to importune him and give it a shot.
Zhang Hai has stated clearly that he just wants them to be friends, but Jing Shu still persists, making Zhang Hai scratch his head in perplexity.
“Beautiful and generous, gentle and virtuous, mommy-tracked... Well, actually I’m not sure about it. Shu, it’s getting late. Go to sleep.”
“Zhang Hai...”
“Stop it. I gotta get up early for a mission tomorrow morning and I’m turning in now. Forget what I said tonight and consider it a joke. Your boss is my sister-in-law and we’ll forever be good friends. Good night.”
After that, Zhang Hai hangs up the phone.
“Hello! Hello!” Jing Shu frowns and throws the phone aside, downhearted.
This is the first time she expresses love to a man!
She gets a real walloping.
Zhang Hai just treats her as a good friend. Actually, she is not reconciled to it.
In fact, they are more than just friends. At least when she needs Zhang Hai, he can always be there...
Wait!
Zhang Hai says she works for his sister-in-law. Is it the reason why he is good to her?
If she and Sister Xia are strangers, Zhang Hai will surely not care about her.
God, is it true?
No, Zhang Hai shouldn’t be such a snob!
Thrusting her hands into her hair, Jing Shu freaks out. She learns something terrible on such a terrible night.
She shouldn’t have fallen in love with such a man. Actually, Zhang Hai said those things in order to alienate her.
Zhang Hai intentionally lets her know his evilness so that she will stop importuning him and stay out of his life.
Jing Shu pinches the quilt, gnashing her teeth. No, she will not be defeated so easily.
Beautiful and generous, gentle and virtuous. That is not hard. She can try to change herself.
At about eleven o’clock, Leng Weiwei suddenly finds that it is such a lovely night.
The melodious and pleasant piano music, like the sound of the sea, permeates deep into the soul, purifying the mind. One cannot help closing the eyes and enjoying the music.
The live version of piano music is really different.
Especially the man playing the piano is as noble and honorable as a prince...
She thinks she is tough enough to resist anything or anyone. But the man in front of her can always melt her heart.
As for her, playing the piano is such an old trick to pick up girls.
After the last note is played, Yi Yuntian’s slender fingers rest on the keyboard. But meanwhile, the music still lingers on in the air.
After a long time, Yi Yuntian turns around, with a smiling and handsome face, “This is ‘Blue Deep Love’. Love it?”
Leng Weiwei raises her brows. Deeply in her heart, the music bewitches her. But she keeps her countenance, replying, “Not bad.”
The music is so beautiful. But the sadness that radiates from it is really heartrending.
She fancies the style and the melody.
She adores the life-long love. Though she does not deserve it...
Yi Yuntian casts Leng Weiwei a more significant smile, “It seems that you do not enjoy it. I gotta practice harder.”
“Let’s call it a night. It’s about twelve. Luckily we did not receive any complaints from our neighbors about playing the piano late at night.” In fact, the sound insulation effect of this apartment is good. She just doesn’t want to be enchanted again.
Before she met Yi Yuntian, she could control her own mood, which she is not capable of after meeting Yi Yuntian.
She doesn’t want anyone to dominate her feelings. In fact, no one likes it...
“Oh, really?” Yi Yuntian strokes the keyboard, continuing, “And then tomorrow I’ll play early.”
“Play a lullaby tomorrow night which will help me sleep.” Putting down the goblet in her hand, Leng Weiwei stands up and walks to the bathroom casually, “I’ll go brush my teeth and turn in.”
After entering the bathroom, Leng Weiwei quickly closes the door. And then she leans against the door, presses her chest with her hands, and takes a deep breath.
If she were just an ordinary woman... That would be great.
If so, she would surely throw herself at Yi Yuntian before he finished playing the music.
But now, she has to calm down.
She cannot sink into the love between her and Yi Yuntian, which can hurt both of them!
As for Yi Yuntian, she is just a person who will eventually slip away. She doesn’t want him to love her forever!
“Rat-tat!”
The door is knocked on. Leng Weiwei instantly gets nervous, “What!”
“Babe, you’re going to sleep and so will I. Open the door. I’ll also brush my teeth.”
Hearing that, Leng Weiwei says hastily and rashly, “Wait a moment! I’m having loose bowels!”
“Loose bowels? No kidding? I’ll fetch some medicine...”
“No need. Give me some minutes!”
Sensing that there is no sound outside, Leng Weiwei lets out a long sigh. After washing her face, she picks up the tooth mug and starts brushing her teeth.
The man is so clingy that he even does not give her the time to have a rest.
After getting washed and feeling better, Leng Weiwei turns around and opens the door.
No sooner has she opened the door than she feels her head spinning and then she finds she is in Yi Yuntian’s arms.
The charming fragrance of cologne, the warm embrace, and the perfectly shaped face... They are just like film scenes, completely unfolded in front of her eyes.
Leng Weiwei is stunned.
“Babe,” Yi Yuntian strokes her flat belly with his big hand, whispering, “Sorry to let you have loose bowels. You must have eaten the wrong types of food. It appears that you can’t have noodles with champagne ever again.”
Leng Weiwei casts a glance at the hand on her belly, coughing slightly, “It’s nothing serious. I’ve had a lot today. Yi Yuntian... Please remove your hand.”
“Oh...” Holding the sound, Yi Yuntian strokes Leng Weiwei’s belly, taking advantage of her, “Still hurt? Need some massage?”
“Get off me!” Leng Weiwei slaps Yi Yuntian’s hand away, saying annoyedly, “I’m tired and I gotta go to sleep now. Please get your hands off me.”
Yi Yuntian holds her close to him. If the man doesn’t let go, she will have to get tough.
Yi Yuntian blinks his eyes, replying, “Fine, go to sleep now. Stay in bed and wait for me. I’ll be there soon.”
With that, Yi Yuntian lets go of Leng Weiwei and walks into the bathroom. Meanwhile, Leng Weiwei’s cheeks grow hot.
Indeed, Yi Yuntian knows how to attract women. He is so enchanting that she feels an urge to throw herself at him.
And she wants very much to do it.
Leng Weiwei bites her lips, turns around, and walks to the bed, lying on her side.
She doesn’t want to see him as she is afraid that she may love him more.
The more she loves him, the more likely they will be doomed!
Hearing the sound in the bathroom, Leng Weiwei gets nervous and jumpy. She suddenly understands that this mission is more dangerous than any mission before!
An idea flashed across her mind. Leng Weiwei seems to think of something. She gets out of bed and takes out a first-aid kit from somewhere. And then she pours two pills out of a medicine bottle and takes them quickly.
Coincidentally, Yi Yuntian who just walks out sees Leng Weiwei’s move.
“What medicine did you take? Treat the stomachache?”
Yi Yuntian’s voice comes from behind, which startles Leng Weiwei. She feels diffident and then puts away the first-aid kit.
“No. To treat insomnia.”
Hearing that, Yi Yuntian winces. Leng Weiwei means that she has taken some sleeping pills.
Taking sleeping pills... Why does she hate him this much?
Or there are some other reasons?
Yi Yuntian presses his thin lips, turns around, and pours a glass of warm water. And then he walks up to Leng Weiwei, handing it over to her, “Remember to take medicine with some water next time.”
Leng Weiwei takes over the water. She dares not look at Yi Yuntian’s countenance, lowering her head like a kid who has done something wrong.
Yi Yuntian steps close to the bed, yawning, “Actually, I’m also tired. A foreign friend from the west forced me to get on a cruise ship. There were lots of women dancing around me, which nearly made my blood splatter. Well, it’s getting late. Dear, I’m going to sleep. Good night.”
“!” Blood splatter?
What blood? Nosebleed?
Leng Weiwei feels down. She gnashes her teeth, eager to force Yi Yuntian to tell her what on earth happened today.
However... The medicine starts to kick in.
She feels light-headed and will soon fall asleep. Leng Weiwei walks to the bed. As soon as she lies down, she falls asleep.
Yi Yuntian opens his eyes and turns to look at Leng Weiwei with his intense eyes.
Woman, how many secrets do you have on earth?
When can you entrust yourself to me? When can you tell me everything about you?
He reaches out and holds the woman he loves in his arms, smiling.
Though he hasn’t used the trick of tonight’s piano for a long time and the trick is pretty old, it appears that it works.
He knows she is struggling.
Want to escape? Not that easy.
