In the limousine, Qiu Yinong sat in the passenger seat in a daze, and the eyes of the man in the back seat of the car were fixed on her for a long time, showing an indescribable concentration in the thick night.

"Miss Qiu, you've arrived." The driver parked the car in the parking lot that Qiu Yinong had taken care of after getting into the car, and as for sitting in the passenger seat, she also asked for it, and the driver could see that she wanted to draw a line with the gentleman in the back seat.

Qiu Yinong politely nodded to the driver and said thank you, and said the same words to the man behind him, and immediately pushed the car door down without stopping for a moment.

"Keep up with her." Inside the car, the man whispered to the driver.

"Yes, sir." The driver holds the steering wheel and presses the accelerator with agility.

Qiu Yinong drove a little way, received a call from Ning Juexi, asked her where she was, she said on the road, he didn't say anything, only said that she should be careful on the road, he had already arrived home.

Qiu Yinong agreed, and inadvertently glanced in the rearview mirror, and found that the aristocratic luxury she was sitting in before was following her car, judging from the steady speed on the opposite side, it had already followed her for a while.

She retracted her gaze and continued to drive indifferently.

The clock pointed to ten o'clock, and Ning Juexi stood on the terrace outside the bedroom to see her car drive in, and a black luxury car slowly parked under the street lamp outside the gate outside the villa.

Because it was too far away, I couldn't see the license plate number clearly, but I only saw the window of the back seat of the car lowered, and a tall figure was sitting faintly inside.

When her car stopped in the courtyard, the car slowly drove away.

He had an open tablet in his hand, on which was playing a video of her being pulled into the book bar by a group of bodyguards, and in the corner of the staircase stood a man in a colored trench coat, his face was not visible, but he was not angry and arrogant, which was the aura of a person who had been in a position for a long time.

Downstairs, Qiu Yi entered the door, and unexpectedly found that the lights in the villa were not turned on, didn't he say that he was at home?

She frowned, the heating was on in the house, it was a little hot, and she took off her coat and hung it up.

Turning on the light, the room was bright, she walked to the stairs to prepare to go up, and when she looked up, she saw Ning Juexi standing a few steps above, he was wearing a nightgown, his hair was slightly damp, black and shiny, and there was a smell of shower gel and shampoo on his body.

His dark eyes locked on hers, and he asked in a low voice, "Have you had dinner?" ”

The story of being chased and intercepted by reporters in the Time House must have spread to the Internet, she pursed her pink lips, and subconsciously shook her head and said, "I didn't go to see Yanqing, I went somewhere else to do something." ”

"So, you didn't eat dinner?"

"Hmm." Thinking that he would go down and ask who she had met with, she didn't expect him to ask about the meal.

"Give me five minutes." He glanced at her, stepped downstairs, walked past her and raised his hand to clasp her face: "Red wine with steak, you go to the basement to find a bottle of red wine." ”

"No more trouble." She looked at him sideways: "I'm not hungry, I don't want to eat, I'm sleepy and want to sleep." ”

He paused for a few seconds, as if to say something, when the cell phone in his dressing gown pocket rang.

When he answered the phone, she walked past him, and the next second her elbow fell into the man's big palm, and she turned her head to look at him: "I'm going to take a shower." ”

His hand was released, and she continued to walk upstairs.

Qiu Yinong took a simple shower, found that he forgot to take his pajamas, and saw a men's bathrobe hanging next to him, so he took it off and put it on.

Ning Juexi finished answering the phone and slowly pushed open the bedroom door, the room was cold and dark, and he once thought that she was not inside.

He turned on the light, and saw the slender figure lying there on the big bed, the air smelling of shower gel, although he had the same body as hers, he still found her fragrance very charming.

Unexpectedly, she was wearing his bathrobe, the loose fabric covering her soft figure exuding a petite beauty, her closed eyes covered with thick and curly eyelashes, and obviously in her sleep, her cherry-like mouth was tight, as if she was having a very painful dream.

I tried to wake her up, but found that she had a little teardrop on her eyelashes.

"Thick, skipping meals is not good for the stomach." The gentle voice called her softly: "I've fried the steak, be good, get up and eat something." ”

Her eyelashes quivered, and she seemed to be awake, but she didn't open her eyes, "I'm sleepy, I don't want to eat, and I'm not hungry." It's not good if the steak is cold, you go and eat it. ”

How could he be willing to go to dinner alone, lifted the quilt and picked the person up, lowered his head and sucked her lips twice: "Eat for half an hour at most, it won't delay you much time to sleep, and come back to sleep after eating, huh?" ”

She shook her head, closed her eyes, and hid her face in his arms: "I really don't want to eat, I just want to sleep...... I'm going to sleep! Her voice suddenly rose, she pressed her hand on his shoulder and climbed onto the bed, hid in the quilt and turned her back to him, "Don't bother me again, please ......"

There was no drowsiness in the muffled voice, only impatient perfunctory.

"Then tell me why I'm crying?" He was no longer gentle, he pulled her body over strongly, and his narrowed black eyes stared at the wetness in the corners of her eyes motionlessly: "I blocked the truth that Qin Shangshang poured sulfuric acid, and you have been angry with me for this?" He explained in a low voice: "I didn't know about that incident at the time, after I was hospitalized, she knew that the matter was big, so she took the initiative to contact Yue Chen, Yue Chen told me that Qin Shangshang had sent Ruan Jie'er's cousin to the police station to turn himself in, and the police found that the tone was conclusive, and the case was basically closed...... " He pursed his lips slightly: "Nong, you are good, if you want to blame me, when the meal is finished, I will listen to you at that time." ”

I'm listening to you again...... This voice and gesture reflect the gentle and considerate side everywhere, but it is also like an old knife, the knife cuts her almost severed nerves.

The accumulated emotions erupted, she pushed him away, picked up her fist and smashed it on him: "I said no food or no food, didn't you hear?" Are you a tyrant? I don't eat what it matters to you, now I just want to sleep quietly, can you not bother me. ”

Shortness of breath and irritability on his face, such a strong autumn mood is very rare.

Ning Juexi looked at her who was out of control like this, a shadow flashed in his narrow eyes, and the flame that had been covered up by him instantly burned even more vigorously, and his tone sank: "I am annoyed, but you have the leisure to run to meet the old man at night, right?" ”

She looked at him with the quilt in her arms, and suddenly sneered: "You don't believe me, and you think I'm having a tryst with someone else, just like people outside?" If you don't believe it, it's a tryst, you are not married, I am not married, if you are together, if you are not together, you will be divided, in your words, this earth will be ...... without anyone"

Before the last note fell, the man pounced on her with a blushing face, pressed her body into the futon, pinched her chin with one hand, and bit her lip fiercely twice, the savage frame wanted to bite her tongue off, bite off and chew all the words just now.

"Autumn is strong." He grinded his teeth and called her name, withdrew from her lips, and gnawed her chin and two lip petals: "Are you trying to me off?" ”

After speaking, without waiting for her to react, he directly picked her up again, and seeing that she was restless and wanted to move, he suddenly lowered his face and scolded: "If you don't eat again, what do you say, believe it or not, I will let Hurricane stop operating the first mobile game of the Yu Dynasty tomorrow, so that it will never see the light of day!" If you don't believe me, just mess with me! ”

Perhaps his threat worked, or perhaps she was too lazy to fight with him anymore, she opened her eyes wide and stopped talking, then lowered her eyes and remained silent.

Ning Juexi continued to reprimand as he walked out of the bedroom with a gloomy face, "Besides, I don't want tonight's situation to happen again. ”

By tonight's situation, did he mean being chased and intercepted by reporters, or was she throwing a tantrum at him?

Qiu Yi pursed her lips and didn't ask.

He hugged her and sat down in a chair, then sat down opposite, and whispered softly, "Finish eating, huh?" ”

"If you lose your temper with me, you must know how to protect yourself, don't go hungry, you will be hungry, and you will not be able to draw more." As he spoke, the man poured the awakened red wine into the goblet, put a glass in her hand, and as if remembering something, he took it back and put it in his hand.

She sat there, her hands resting on her knees, in front of her was a very neatly arranged knife, fork and spoon, the fragrant steak lying quietly in a snow-white bone china square plate, with some Italian spiral macaroni, next to a piece of lemon, two mint leaves, very pleasing to the eye, is his consistent cooking style, both tangible and colorful, both form and color, contrasting with each other.

In order to create an atmosphere, he even turned off the luxurious crystal chandelier above the restaurant, and the candlelight that had already been lit on the dining table instantly served as the lighting task.

Qiu Yinong stared at the food in front of him silently for a while, and then met his gaze for a moment, and said flatly: "You don't have to coax me, because it's not necessary, and because the more you coax me, the more uncomfortable I will be, just let it be, do it and cherish it." It's good for each other. ”

"Finished?" There was not the slightest anger on his face, he glanced at her lightly, picked up the thin foot of the goblet without being surprised, took two sips of thin lips, and looked at her with bottomless eyes, but also shining with a gentle light: "Aren't you sleepy?" When you're done, eat, and when you're done, you can go up and go back to sleep. ”

Qiu Yinong didn't move, she didn't speak, she just stared at the food on the plate, her eyes didn't blink.

Ning Juexi elegantly took a knife and fork to cut the steak, cut the steak on the plate into evenly sized pieces, and then made a reversal with the plate in front of her without saying a word, holding her small hand on the dining table with her big hand, frowning but coaxing her gently: "If it's troublesome, eat what I cut." ”

Qiu Yinong suddenly withdrew his hand back: "I don't want it!" ”

He didn't get angry when he looked at her, but he felt that she wasn't in a high mood tonight, and compared to the morning before the two separated, she seemed to be trapped in a huge whirlpool, like a cat with teeth and claws, sensitive and irritable.

When the man at the opposite table stretched out his hand again, Qiu Yinong felt that the previous idea of wanting to get along with him was about to be overwhelmed, she retracted into the chair, and said a little weakly: "Ning Juexi, even if I beg you, can you not force me to do what I don't want to do." After a sleep, her hair spread out covered most of her delicate face, showing a pair of eyes that were particularly cool, she closed her eyes and stood up: "I'm sorry for wasting your mind, but these are not what I want at this time, I just want to rest, I want to sleep, I don't want anything else." ”

Her feet hurriedly turned to leave, but because she tripped over the foot of the chair, she was carried down by him, stepped on the ground barefoot, knocked her ankle, and subconsciously squatted down to hold her foot in pain.

At the same time, a hand picked her up faster, and half-forced her sat on the chair, and the man squatted at her feet to check her injury: "If you lose your temper, you lose your temper, don't look at how you walk, don't move, I'll see if there are any injuries." ”

The smooth white ankle was red, and there was no sign of swelling, it should be fine, he held her feet in his arms and examined them carefully, his eyes were focused, and from her point of view, he saw his slightly wet short hair, and the slightly open expensive nightgown obediently wrapped the man's strong chest, and the next moment her feet were pulled into the bathrobe and attached to the man's hot chest......

Qiu Yinong's breathing was disordered, his face changed, he panted and struggled to retract his feet, gritted his teeth and whispered: "Ning Juexi, what are you doing?" ”

"You don't have shoes on, your feet are cold, I'll cover them for you, what's wrong, what's the problem?" An extremely handsome face had a warm smile on his face, and he asked playfully: "I can't stand it anymore?" ”

She looked at him, a little angry, a little tired, and more dazed.

"Give me a drink." She turned her gaze to the goblet on the side of his plate, he had just taken it back and didn't let her drink because he remembered that her aunt was there, but at the moment, she needed alcohol to regulate some emotions and calm her boredom to think about something.

Ning Juexi straightened up slightly, his handsome face approached, pecked the tip of her nose, and smiled very dotingly: "If I pour you a glass of red wine, you won't be angry, can you finish this meal well?" ”

She silently looked at the red liquid in the crystal goblet, and said softly, "Okay." ”

A quarter of an hour later, the two sat opposite each other, the fork in Ning Juexi's hand stopped in mid-air, chewing slowly in his mouth, frowning at the woman who had been drinking opposite, his eyes were extremely deep, and he slowly spoke: "Nong, you drank too much." ”

She tilted her neck and poured the red wine in her hand into her throat, put down the goblet and looked at him with a bright smile: "I've finished my steak, you promised me to drink it." ”

His thin lips pursed into a stiff straight line, and he said in a deep voice: "If you have any grievances, you can tell me, don't do this, it won't solve any problems except hurting your body." ”

She lowered her curly eyelashes, the candle flame swayed on her face with a blurry dreamlike light and shadow, pinched the napkin cloth and slowly and carefully wiped it along the lip line, and then placed it casually in the corner of the dining table.

"Third Brother ......"

Ning Juexi reached out and picked up the almost empty wine decanter, poured the last bit of red wine into his cup, the red liquid slowly flowed along the crystal of the long neck, and the corners of his lips were drawn with an imperceptible coldness, every time she called him "third brother" like this, it seemed that she was distancing themselves from each other, he would rather call him by name through gritted teeth, than listen to her so polite and obviously alienated.

"I feel like we should separate."

The sound of red wine spilling stopped, and the large hand holding the transparent decanter lingered for a few seconds, as if waiting for the last few drops of liquid to flow into the goblet.

The decanter was finally empty, and there was not a drop left.

He calmly put the decanter back in its place, the hand he withdrew turned into ten fingers, leaned back slightly, as if he hadn't heard, and said in his usual tone: "You can go up and rest after eating, I won't bother you anymore." ”

"Third brother." She didn't move, she looked straight at him, "I said we'd be apart for a while and give each other room to calm down." ”

He lifted his eyelids lightly and opened his mouth calmly: "Separate for a while? I don't think you and I need to be separated for a while, as I said, there are problems to solve problems, and avoiding them can't solve problems. ”

"Then what do you think is wrong between me and you?" She asked rhetorically.

"I'm not you, just say it, I'm listening." He looked at her, his eyes as deep as a black hole.

She lowered half of her eyes and stared at the empty cup in her hand, the candle flame covered the wall of the cup lightly and softly, and it was like being immersed in the cold moonlight, pushing the empty goblet aside, and wrote lightly: "It's nothing, I just feel that this time is quite tiring, you are tired and I am tired, it is better to separate and think about whether there is no need to go on in this relationship." ”

"I understand what you mean." He said in a deep voice, staring directly into her eyes: "Thick, you can be angry with me, it is true that I concealed the truth about your pouring of sulfuric acid, and you can also punish me, I have no complaints, but the way I don't accept your punishment is to separate for a while." Again, separation can't solve the problem, I don't allow you to leave my sight, leave my life, not a minute or a second, so I don't agree with what you said about being separated for a while.

"How can there be such a person as you in this world?" Her tone remained the same, but there was a cold warmth in her eyes.

He looked at her with unfathomable eyes, and said calmly: "Whether you call me a robber, or call me possessive, I just want to be with you, and I want to be with you for the rest of my life." I have imagined countless times that it is you who opens my eyes every day, and it is you a second before I close my eyes, I have fantasized about sharing all my efforts and achievements with you, and I have also imagined that we will quarrel and reconcile like ordinary men and women at the beginning, and then quarrel and reconcile, and so on and so forth, until we become a tacit and heart-to-heart couple. I've fantasized about having children with you, I've fantasized about us growing old together, and I've fantasized about one day supporting each other like a pair ......of old people at sunset."

"Enough! Say no more! Qiu Yinong's face became extremely ugly, and she stared at a certain place, feeling that his words were so ironic, so distant, that she would never be able to give him...... His throat was firmly held by an invisible rope, and he couldn't breathe, and his eyes were pitch black, and his body seemed to be shaking and unsteady.

Fingers pinched her thighs fiercely, she slowly made herself not so excited, calmed down, and continued: "Two people should be relaxed together, not like carrying a thousand pounds of big stones, walking with difficulty, this is not what I want, so don't force me, don't come to me during this time, don't let me be completely disappointed in you, bored, completely boring, and don't want it at all at that time, okay?" ”

At some point, he stood up and walked over to her, he stood, she sits, his tall figure pressed her breath like a mountain in the light of the candlelight.

He lowered his head to look at her little face, and his voice was hoarse and powerful: "When you slept just now, it was because you were going to be separated from me for a while, so you secretly hid in bed and cried, right?" ”

She was slightly stunned, then smiled, raised her hand and stroked the bangs that were slightly hanging in front of her eyes, turned her head to look at each other's shadows on the wall, so long and so distorted, and her eyes didn't look at him for half a minute: "I'm not sure, I'm dreaming, it may be a nightmare, don't ask me what dream it is, many people wake up and dream and don't remember anything, it's just an emotion in the dream." ”

The man's rough fingertips slowly rubbed her delicate face, his eyes were sharp as scrutiny, and he whispered: "If you admit it, I may agree to separate for a while, but if you don't admit that you are crying for me, I don't feel at ease to let go, unless you give me a positive answer, saying that you care about me, the kind that cares about me very much." ”

"Ning Juexi, has anyone said that you are very authoritarian?" She turned her gaze to look at him with a blank expression.

He narrowed his eyes at the name and surname, and did not deny it: "Yes." The eyebrows brushed away the bangs that covered her eyes again, revealing a pair of sparkling watery eyes, "But you're the first woman to dare to say it so directly." ”

"You used to have a lot of women? I mean in addition to Qin Shangshang and Ni Yumo, the two recognized. ”

He frowned steadily, and replied lazily: "If you marry me, I'll tell you now." ”

She seemed to smile a little, tilted her head and pursed her lips to look at him: "Then don't ever tell me." ”

His chin was pinched suddenly, and the force was great, and he stared at her with dissatisfaction, wondering why this woman was so annoying to him, and at the same time a deep sense of powerlessness floated in his heart. She is like a stone, not big, smooth in appearance, but cold and hard in temperature, no matter how he covers it, he can't cover it hot, he can't give up, he can't give up, he can't give up, he can only continue to hold it in his arms, cover it for a lifetime, so that she can't go anywhere, she can only stay in his arms and accompany her until she is old.

Ning Juexi's brows furrowed and wrinkled, and his lips were also very tight: "Okay, I agree to separate for a while, but not too long, you continue to go back to your apartment, I live here, give each other four days to think about it, are you so satisfied?" ”

Four days is a lot, with her understanding of this man, he may only give two days at most, Qiu Yinong's chin raised slightly, and he stared at him: "Talking counts?" ”

He leaned over and pressed her shoulder: "Am I the kind of person who denies?" ”

She smiled and said quietly: "Anyway, you are used to being domineering, and you yourself say that you are a robber." ”
