“Mom, did you hear that? Youxuan said it! Chenglin has a girl!” Guan Liya screamed excitedly. She had tears welled up in her eyes as she turned to Grandmother Qi.
Grandmother Qi stared at Qi Youxuan, her eyes twinkling. “Youxuan, did you say Aunt Ruan just now? Is it the Xiao Ruan that we all know?”
Xia Wenna leaned in curiously too. “They’re at your house now?”
Even Song Yu, who was usually calm and did not like to be a busybody, had the urge to call Ruan Danchen and confirm with her.
Qi Youxuan wished he could bolt out the door and escape. He covered his eyes with his plump hands, unwilling to face the mess he made. He shook his head and in his youthful and crisp voice, he deflected, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. I didn’t say a thing just now. I’ve lost my memory.”
Having said that, he rolled his eyes upward and fell on the sofa, pretending he was dead.
Everyone fell silent.
“Sigh, this child. Your dad having a lady is good news, so why are you two hiding it from us?” Grandmother Qi walked over and picked up Qi Youxuan. She sat down at his spot and seated him on her lap.
Grandmother Qi pulled his hands away from his face and questioned, “What exactly is going on? Is the lady Xiao Ruan? They’re at your house now?”
Qi Youxuan widened his gorgeous eyes and stared at Grandmother Qi. He looked exceedingly adorable. “Great-grandma, I’m hungry.”
“...” Grandmother Qi gently smacked his head in annoyance. “Forget it, I won’t ask you anymore. Wenna, Liya, let’s go. Pack up a bit. We’re going to Chenglin’s house. I was wondering why he didn’t come with Qi Youxuan for today’s family gathering.”
Grandmother Qi stood up and placed down Qi Youxuan.
Hearing that, Qi Youxuan hastily pounced onto Grandmother Qi’s legs and shouted, “Great-grandma, you can’t go there! What if you scare Aunt Ruan? If she runs away, where will I find another stepmom? Dad said that when I go home tonight, I’ll see Aunt Ruan sleeping in our home! What if she doesn’t want to stay after seeing you all? I still want to hear her telling me the story of Ultraman fighting little monsters. I sacrificed the chance to stay at her house last time just for today. I purposely left the house to Dad alone so he can make an all-out-effort!”
Qi Youxuan was tremendously distressed. He latched onto Grandmother Qi’s legs tightly and tried to pull her back with all his might.
Despite being a smart child, Qi Youxuan was still a six-year-old. Once agitated, he would spill everything out on his own accord. Thus, they obtained a clear and detailed explanation without asking a single question.
It was still alright before Qi Youxuan said those words, but once he did, Grandmother Qi and Guan Liya were completely riled up.
They were astonished that Qi Chenglin was already this intimate to the lady. Judging from Qi Youxuan’s words, it must not have been a recent thing. After all, he already went to her house.
Now that Qi Chenglin had fished her into his home and prepared to let her stay the night, how could they still stay put? They wanted to go see what was going on immediately.
At this moment, Grandmother Qi was positive that this lady was Ruan Danchen.
“Chengzhi, hurry up and take Youxuan away. Don’t let him latch onto me like this.” Grandmother Qi kicked with all her might but with her old and atrophied legs, she could not get Qi Youxuan off no matter how hard she tried.
Qi Chengzhi strode forward and pulled Qi Youxuan away by the collar.
“Auntie, look what Uncle is doing! How can he be so mean! I’m being choked by the collar!” Qi Youxuan’s chubby hands held onto his collar. He even stuck his tongue out for effect.
Qi Chengzhi clicked his tongue irritatedly and hoisted Qi Youxuan onto his shoulder.
“Ugh, Uncle, put me down! You guys can’t just ruin the perfect life my dad and I are going to have!” Qi Youxuan kicked his little legs fretfully as he saw Qi Chengzhi’s long legs marching toward the front door.
Qi Chengzhi spanked his butt impudently but lightly. “Having a useless teammate like you must’ve been a huge hindrance for your dad.”
Song Yu tugged on Qi Chengzhi’s sleeve. “Carry him properly. The child isn’t comfortable.”
Qi Chengzhi glanced at Song Yu then reluctantly carried Qi Youxuan in his arms properly. He even pouted and complained, “You’re so heavy.”
“Xiao Liu! Xiao Liu!” Grandmother Qi, who was already outside the house, rushed back in again. “Hurry up and bring me a lunar calendar. I’ll bring it over.”
As she said that, Qi Youxuan was carried out of the house by Qi Chengzhi and thrown into his Range Rover. Song Yu sat at the back to accompany the little boy. She was still pregnant so Qi Youxuan sat obediently without throwing a tantrum—he was afraid he might hurt Song Yu.
Grandfather Qi had Xiao Fan prepare the car. He was already sitting inside. Grandmother Qi dashed out with a lunar calendar at hand—she did not even have time to stuff it in her bag. Speedily, she entered the car.
In the end, four groups of people in four separate cars set off to Prestige Residences together.
...
...
Qi Chenglin led Ruan Danchen upstairs. They passed by a bedroom, its door open ajar. Looking inside instinctively, Ruan Danchen saw that the whole room was filled with cold colors and the decorations were all black and grey. Immediately, she saw the big bed in the room.
Suddenly, Qi Chenglin tightened his grip on her hand. He turned to her with passionate eyes. “That’s my room. Do you want to have a look?”
“...” Ruan Danchen was burning up. With a flushed face, she said, “I’ll just look at the toy room.”
Qi Chenglin pouted subtly but kept silent.
He brought her to the toy room. The toys had all been cleared out and were piled in the living room. Right now, the only thing left in the room were the wallpapers.
“We wanted to renovate the whole room so we cleared out all the things,” Qi Chenglin clarified.
There was nothing in the room, so there was not much to see.
Nonetheless, Ruan Danchen came here with full intention of designing the perfect room for Qi Youxuan. She produced a measuring tape from her bag and made several measurements. She even took a few pictures.
Raun Danchen squatted on the floor to measure the length and width of the room. She stood up and tidies her hair. Suddenly, a deep, husky voice sounded beside her ear. “Don’t you have to measure the height?”
Out of nowhere, Qi Chenglin had drawn closer and pressed himself against her back. When he spoke, she could feel his hot breath blowing onto her earlobe. Without turning back, she could see his face from the corner of her eyes. Although she could not see his lips, she could still feel the movement of his hot lips through the irregular breaths landing on her ear as he spoke.
Every time she thought he could not come closer, he would lean in abruptly, giving her no time to prepare at all. However, once she was prepared, she could only feel his hot breath burning her skin.
Just like this, he always made her heart race. It beat faster and faster in a disorderly manner.
Their faces were extremely close together. When she turned her head, she could smell his breath. Ruan Danchen’s was so hot, it was starting to itch, yet she still let him stick onto her. She did not move.
“When you were at MU., I saw Mu Huaisheng hugging you when I went in. Did you stumble when going up the stairs?” Qi Chenglin teased. His smoky voice landed in her ear again.
“...” Ruan Danchen was speechless. She did not expect him to remember an incident from so long ago.
It was an accident. That day, he walked in silently and left silently as well, no reaction in any way. Unexpectedly, it stayed on his mind to this day.
“I was just careless,” Ruan Danchen mumbled weakly. Being so close to him, her heart and body were starting to tremble and she could not raise her voice. Her voice was soft like a mosquito. Luckily, Qi Chenglin was extremely close to her so he could hear her clearly.
His lips twitched and sighed. His breath was searing. In a low, gravelly voice, he muttered, “If you were just careless, why did you let him hug you so tightly?”
“...” Ruan Danchen was a little annoyed. Was he trying to hold her accountable after so long?
“I was just too shocked. When I fell, he caught me. You walked in all of a sudden when I was going to stand on my own feet, giving me a shock. I was totally stunned. If you hadn’t walked in so abruptly, I would’ve backed away much earlier,” Ruan Danchen murmured.
When she saw him back then, she was extremely anxious.
“You still dare to blame it on me?” Qi Chenglin’s lips twitched. The more he thought about it, the more vexed he became. He felt as though Mu Huaisheng had gotten lucky for nothing—he even got to hug her.
He wrapped his arms around her waist from behind and placed his sizzling palm flat on her lower abdomen. He pulled her close into his embrace.
Ruan Danchen was shaking. Her back was practically being burnt by his body heat. She felt his solid muscles pressed against her soft back—the contrast was startling.
Somehow, Ruan Danchen had the courage to insult him. “Don’t hold me accountable for something that happened so long ago. You’re so petty. Besides, we weren’t even dating back then. Let’s not talk about me accidentally falling and he just happened to catch me. Even if I was going out with anyone back then, it would be none of your business.”
Qi Chengzhi squinted. Instantly, he pushed her against the wall and pressed his hard and fit body against her. The heat was intense.
Seeing his aggressive manner, the courage that she had mustered up deflated again. She wanted to soothe him but she had never flirted with anyone in her life so, at that moment, she had no idea how to soothe him.
Back when she lived with Liu Ronghua, Liu Ronghua was always busy blandishing men. How would she let Ruan Danchen sweet-talk her into anything?
From young, Ruan Danchen had been a strong and independent girl. How would she know anything about flattery?
Qi Chenglin’s sizzling hands were wrapped tightly around her waist. He kissed her forcefully, pressing his lips against hers with all his might. Her lips felt numb and slightly painful while the back of her head was pressed firmly onto the wall.
“Let’s see if you still dare to let other men touch you,” Qi Chenglin warned somewhat menacingly, his lips still glued onto hers.
“...” Ruan Danchen was gradually running out of breath. Her soft lips were plump and red. She was panting heavily. Seeing her delicate and innocent appearance, the fire inside Qi Chenglin burnt fiercer and fiercer.
“Would you rather I fall and get injured, then let someone catch me?” Ruan Danchen did not dare move, fearful of provoking the flame inside him. Nevertheless, she could not help but give a little fight.
Qi Chenglin inevitably hugged her tightly in his embrace. Her soft body felt exceedingly comfortable and seductive in his arms.
“Then you should follow me around all day. If you fall, I’ll be the one to catch you. Don’t lean into any other men’s arms.” Qi Chenglin grinned as he saw her wrapped coquettishly in his arms. He was devilishly aroused.
“I never knew you were so narrow-minded,” Ruan Danchen muttered with a flushed face. She was not angry. Rather, she felt that it was quite funny.
It was because he cared about her dearly and was always anxious for her. He was such a big and strong man, yet when it came to her, he would become so petty. Ruan Danchen thought that this combination of traits was quite adorable.
Suddenly, Qi Chenglin had a thought. He gazed down at her red hot face. With a tender smile, he rubbed his lips against hers again and again, to and fro. “If I didn’t fall for you, I won’t be so petty.”
Ruan Danchen’s cheeks were at the pinnacle of redness. Qi Chenglin was curious—was the body under her clothes tinted with such an amorous shade of red too?
“I want to see Youxuan’s bedroom,” Ruan Danchen mumbled. Her face and scalp were insanely itchy. She kept her head down shyly, refusing to look at him.
Her heart was beating violently and out of rhythm. Under his gentle and alluring gaze, she was completely dazed.
However, Qi Chenglin did not let go of her. In his low and melodic voice, he unveiled, “You can see it later. I’ve already told you that I really like you, that I love you. You have something that I’ve never seen on anyone else. When I see you, I couldn’t resist the temptation to hug you, to kiss you. I can feel the overwhelming heat flaring up in me. I’ve never felt so impulsive.”
Ruan Danchen felt as if she was going to faint. Subconsciously, she started holding her breath. Only when she was suffocating did she realized she had stopped breathing. Hurriedly, she took a deep breath and spat it out.
She swallowed nervously. Gathering her courage, she looked up. Unexpectedly, just as she raised her head, her gaze fell into his deep, black eyes.
“But you’ve never told me how you feel about me.” Qi Chenglin stared deep into her eyes. Even though he was sure of her answer, he still needed to hear it from her.
He could tell that she still had reservations—there was still hesitation and uncertainty in her heart. He needed to rid her of those thoughts.
Ruan Danchen sucked in her lips. She looked down and stared at the buttons on his shirt. Softly, she whispered, “If I didn’t fall for you, I would’ve stated it clearly like what I did with Mu Huaisheng. If I didn’t fall for you, I wouldn’t have let you hug me and kiss me constantly.”
Qi Chenglin’s expression melted. Thoroughly touched, he looked down and kissed her again passionately.
Ruan Danchen was limp in his arms. She trembled. Qi Chenglin slid her fingers through hers and interlaced them. “I’ll bring you to Youxuan’s room.”
Ruan Danchen followed him out of the room in a daze. She was in no mood to see which room was Qi Youxuan’s. When she finally snapped out of it, they were already standing in Qi Youxuan’s bedroom.
His bedroom was not big, and it was the perfect size for a six-year-old child. She believed that Qi Chenglin had intentions to move him into a different bedroom when he grew older.
A small single bed was placed against the wall. Beside it stood a study table with a small bookshelf joint to it.
On the study table, there was an Apple Desktop Computer. On the bookshelf, there were all kinds of books: comics, an atlas and a picture-filled encyclopedia that was perfect for a child his age.
There were also many plastic figures displayed on the shelf. Additionally, there were some toys that he took from the pile in the living room. The little room felt very cozy.
Ruan Danchen felt that there was no need to renovate the room—it was more or less perfect. She felt blessed that she could see the space where the little boy grew up.
Ruan Danchen walked toward his bed. On the shelf behind the headboard, a few photos of Qi Youxuan were displayed. He was about the same age in the photos as he was now. There was one taken at a beach and one at a zoo.
The boy in the photo looked witty and cute. Even through just photos, she could tell that his huge, black eyes were filled with energy.
Ruan Danchen lingered in Qi Youxuan’s room for a long time. She was reluctant to leave.
In the end, Qi Chenglin told her there would still be chances to see the room next time and dragged her out of the room.
However, he did not bring her to the living room. He made a detour and led her into his bedroom.
Ruan Danchen was stunned. She suddenly noticed that his bed was peculiarly large. It took up a gigantic amount of space in the room. She felt as though she could only see the bed and nothing else.
“Once you are done designing Youxuan’s toy room, do design my room too. Design it however you please.” Qi Chenglin’s muscular arms enveloped her waist and pulled her tight into his embrace.
His words implied that he wanted her to move in with him, to have her name carved into his home. Though indirect, they carried kind of silent intimacy.
Ruan Danchen’s heart inevitably melted. Although this man always acted so indecently whenever he saw her, small actions like this always reassured her. Wordlessly, his actions connoted his seriousness toward this relationship.
