Chapter 140 - 140 He Will Hide This Secret

140 He Will Hide This Secret

“Of course I won’t ask you to invest all your capital.” Song Zhen lowered his head to look at his phone and reply to his girlfriend, “At most three to four million.”

“Invest what?”

“Real estate on the East of the city.”

He Qi asked for more details.

Seeing that Song Zhen had done a lot of research on this project, he was slightly relieved. “Then come and pick me up tomorrow. My car is broken.”

“No problem.” Song Zhen turned off the screen and looked at Su Tian. “Is Brother Quan still coming?”

“I think so.”

“Then I’ll get going. You two can talk.”

He Qi sent him to the door.

He turned to look at Su Tian, who was scrolling through her phone, and slowly walked towards her. “Tian, I have a headache.”

“Does it hurt badly?”

“Yes.”

“I’ll get you the medicine.” Su Tian was about to find the first aid kit when he pulled her into his arms.

She cried out in panic. When she looked up and glared at him, her expression was adorable. “Let go of me!”

“No.” He Qi pressed his forehead against hers and breathed on her cheek. “Did you miss me recently?”

“No.”

“I don’t believe you.”

“Take the medicine first.” Su Tian did not want to discuss anything else with him. “Your health is the most important.”

She was wearing a lot of clothes, and He Qi could not feel her soft waist through the coat.

He turned up the temperature in the room and touched her lips with his index finger. “Kiss me and I’ll be cured right away.”

“I can’t.”

“Why?”

“I made it clear to you last time.” Su Tian slapped his hand away. “This is wrong.”

“It’s not like anyone knows.”

“It’s all the same.”

He Qi’s eyes darkened.

He retracted his hands and walked towards the bedroom alone, looking like he was angry. “Up to you.”

His hunched back made people pity him.

Su Tian sat in the living room for a long time. She felt uncomfortable as the room temperature rose and took off her coat.

She knocked on his door with a cup of warm water. Seeing that there was no response, she pressed the door handle.

“He Qi.” She placed the medicine box on the bedside table and looked at him. “Don’t be like this.”

“Like what?”

“You can’t force a relationship. Even if we can’t be a couple, we can still be friends, right?”

He Qi stood up and locked the door.

He held her hand and lay on the bed, his possessiveness growing. “I don’t want to be friends with you.”

Su Tian, whose wrist was restrained, could not move.

She looked into his eyes and said, “He Qi, you should consider my feelings.”

“You have a crush on me, don’t you?”

“There is no possibility between us.”

She did not deny it.

He Qi suddenly smiled. “Tian.” He touched her beautiful lips. “It’s okay. I’ll hide this secret.”

His intimacy made the situation uncontrollable.

Realizing that it was too late, Su Tian hurriedly pushed his shoulder, but it was more like she was playing with him.

She regretted being intimate with him last time, but at the same time, she felt an extreme joy.

“He Qi, you bastard!” She looked up and scolded him, her eyes filled with tears and more charming.

He Qi lost his mind.

A strange excitement overwhelmed him, and he tightened his grip on her hand.

“TIan… I love you.” He kept repeating it in her ear, every word filled with love.

Time passed quietly in an ambiguous atmosphere.

When the afterglow of the setting sun lit up the mess in the room and brought some rationality back to them, a series of sad sobs sounded.

Su Tian, who was leaning against his chest, cried with red eyes.

Her pitiful gaze made He Qi feel guilty. “It’s my fault. Don’t cry, okay?”

“What do you want me to do in the future?”

“I’ll take the responsibility.”

Su Tian did not need that.

“Go!” She kicked his knee, but the force was like a tickle. “I don’t want to see you ever again.”

With a beauty in his arms, He Qi could not bear to leave.

He coaxed her patiently until she stopped crying before saying, “Baby, no one else will know about this.”

“Why should I believe you?”

“Because of my love for you.”

“Cut it out.” Su Tian dodged his kiss and was actually not worried at all. “Give me the clothes.”

“No.”

“What do you want now?”

He Qi held her and moved up.

He caressed her waist longingly, his voice still hoarse. “Call me Hubby again.”

“No.”

“Be a good girl. Call me for the last time.”

Su Tian refused to let him have what he wanted.

She put on her clothes and returned to the living room. Just as she picked up her phone, she saw a WeChat message. “He’s here.”

“Where is he?”

“I’m not sure. A few more minutes before he gets here, I think.”

He Qi sat lazily at the other end.

He held a cigarette in his mouth and waited for Gu Quan to appear. When the doorbell rang, he put on a dejected look.

“Are you alright?” The first thing Gu Quan did when he entered was show concern for his friend. He had no idea that he was cheated upon.

“I’m not dead yet.”

“Don’t talk about dying.” He took off his jacket. “Why did you turn on the heat?”

He Qi said casually, “It’s too cold.” He handed Gu Quan a cigarette. “Have you settled your matters?”

“Yes.” Gu Quan picked up the wine bottle at his feet.

He found a topic to talk to He Qi about and tried to get him to talk about his current difficulties.

When he found out that they were going to see a project tomorrow, he said tactfully, “Let me know if you need help.”

He Qi was too embarrassed to ask him for help.

“Not for now.” He drank half a glass of water and looked up, revealing a few scratches on his neck. “We’ll talk about it when it’s confirmed.”

“Alright.” Gu Quan lit the cigarette and looked at his neck. “Where did you go to have fun this time?”

“I didn’t go out.”

“Then what happened to your neck?”

Only then did He Qi react.

He touched his neck and said, “A girl came to me last night. She scratched me.”

“You are starting a new relationship?”

“Not yet. She treats me as her lover.”

“Lover?” Gu Quan thought of what happened in Bo Yu. “I advise you not to get yourself into trouble.”

“It’s not what you think.” He swallowed the words that were stuck in his throat. “She doesn’t have a boyfriend.”

Gu Quan did not understand his kink.

“I’m going to the washroom.” He did not ask further. “Clean yourself up. We’ll go out for dinner later.”

As soon as he entered the washroom, Su Tian leaned over and grabbed He Qi’s ear. “Are you crazy?!”

“I’m not crazy.”

“Then what do you mean?”

“I was just joking.” He Qi held her hand and raised his chin to kiss her lips. “Baby, don’t think too much.”

“Don’t touch me.” Su Tian moved to the side, facing the washroom to avoid being seen.

Her attitude did not stop He Qi.

He held the back of her head and enjoyed being intimate with her.

“Do you on the pill?” When he left, he suddenly asked, “If not, I’ll buy it for you.”

“I am.”

Su Tian knew what pill he was referring to.

She heard the sound of water coming from the washroom and quickly took out an air cushion to reapply lipstick. “Sit further away.”
