Chapter 209

"Don't say it..." She couldn't imagine it. If her parents suddenly left her one day—no, it wouldn't happen! Hugging his waist, He Lele leaned gently against his chest. "You..." You still have me.

At this moment, how she wished she had the qualifications to say this sentence; she was even willing to share her loving parents with him! She wanted to... protect him.

But she wasn't qualified.

Not qualified.

Holding the delicate, soft, and warm body in front of him, Qin Zhixiu continued, "Until one day, the airport moved."

The tears that had just welled up in her eyes suddenly froze. He Lele looked up at Qin Zhixiu, who had a smile on his face, feeling both like crying and laughing.

"It was only after I couldn't see the planes that I realized I could see other things," Qin Zhixiu raised his hand to point to the community at the foot of the mountain, where one of the detached houses was brightly lit, forming a clear contrast with the sparse lights around it. "That's my home."

"..." Had he been leaving all the lights on?

"Accompany me... home, okay?"

"...Mm."

Home.

Looking at the hesitant Qin Zhixiu, He Lele gathered her courage and held his hand. Regardless of whether she was qualified or not, since she was by his side now, she... should do something.

Qin Zhixiu turned his head to look at her, wrapped her small hand in his palm, and led her toward the door with steady steps.

From the living room to the study, then to his bedroom, and finally to his parents' room, all the rooms were very clean and tidy... just like a model home in a real estate development.

"I'm home." Picking up the family photo of the three of them on the nightstand, Qin Zhixiu said in a low voice.

"Xiu..."

Moving his gaze from the photo to her, he saw the pity and heartache on her beautiful little face that could not be faked. Qin Zhixiu lowered his head and kissed her forehead lightly.

"Isn't it a bit inappropriate to have evil thoughts in your parents' bedroom?"

"Uh..."

"Is it okay?"

"I, I said—"

"I don't remember." He kissed her lips gently.

"Xiu... you, you will regret this later."

"..." Qin Zhixiu's movements paused. "Do you know? Not a single one of the 'futures' they promised me ever came true. Heh..."

The final laugh completely ignited the soreness that had accumulated at the tip of her nose. Putting her arms around his shoulders, she took the initiative to kiss his fragrant, soft, and rosy lips.

"Right here, or back to my bedroom?" Qin Zhixiu asked, kissing her neck while removing the clothing from her delicate body.

"Back, back to your bedroom." He Lele panted, her hands clutching the clothing at his waist. Her body, which had tightened due to his kisses, became increasingly sensitive, and the urgency and desire rising in her lower abdomen came so swiftly and profoundly that she couldn't tell whether he needed her or if she wanted him more!

"Ah..." When his hot member thrust deep into her body, it felt as if a badge that fit perfectly had been installed in the bottom of her heart; it was so fulfilling and peaceful, as if everything was exactly as it should be...

"Ah, ah..." Her fingertips left red marks on his fair and toned back muscles, so enchanting and lewd, accompanied by the increasingly skillful shallow thrusts and deep plunges of his waist, slowly filling this room that had been vacant for nearly eight years with the thick scent of humanity...

I might have disappointed many girls who were looking forward to revenge plots, because Lele is a soft girl through and through~ If she really had to "fight"—the difference in strength is too vast... Her only winning move is—overcoming hardness with softness.

*Cough cough*~~ Alright~~ Jiangshan is just a lewd writer of smut~~ House fights, palace fights, power struggles... *Cough cough*~~ Isn't it also a pleasure to talk about love and roll in the sheets~~

Love you all~~ May all the girls reading this be happy every day!!!

jing2008zi~~ I'm sorry~~ I wanted to do a double update~ but my stomach didn't cooperate. I took a long-distance bus without a mask, and from the time I got home until now, I've been farting for hours, and the whole room smells like spices...

Wishing you a fruitful new year!!! Love you~

☆, (8 Fresh Coins) Chapter 225: Finding Herself

November 5th, cloudy turning sunny.

Four months after graduation, processing her resignation for the second time, He Lele looked at the resignation certificate in her hand, feeling both helpless and amused.

Three days ago, while still in the hospital, she had called to submit her resignation. The supervisor had asked her to reconsider at the time, but after the incident with Shentu Mo, she couldn't find a reason to stay, so she sent a registered letter of resignation that same day.

Excluding training and the cost of the uniform, she actually received over six hundred in wages, which was far better than the previous three months of "working herself to death" for almost nothing! So, it doesn't matter how high the income is; the key is the net income!

When getting off the bus, she found a one-yuan coin at the station. Since there were no police officers around, He Lele secretly bought a popsicle to lick. Lingyu had said that any loose change found must be spent as soon as possible!

"Lingyu, are you going on a business trip this weekend?"

"This week? Master didn't say. Why?"

"Let's go eat something good."

"Haha! Did you get paid?"

"Mm! And—I got the album."

"Ahhhhh—give it to me, give it to me! Right now, immediately!"

Hearing Lingyu's excited voice, He Lele couldn't help but smile.

Just after hanging up the phone, her phone rang again. It was an unfamiliar landline number, but it looked somewhat familiar.

"Hello, this is Xin× Culture Media. May I ask if this is Ms. He Lele?"

Xin× Culture Media was the company that had previously recruited for animation voice acting, and the audiobook she recorded part-time was a small project of that company. The company called mainly to notify her to sign the relevant agreements, saying that the electronic versions had been sent to her email, asking her to check them, and if there were no problems, she could go to sign the contract next Monday and attend the briefing on the animation content.

This news was undoubtedly just right for her; she just happened to need work, and she just happened to have time.

"Also, may I ask if you know Mr. Ji Jie?"

He Lele was stunned. "...I know him, why?"

"Ah, that's great. It's like this, the phone number he left has been unreachable. If it's convenient, could you please ask Mr. Ji to return the call?"

"...Okay."

She had almost forgotten that Ji Jie was supposed to go for a follow-up audition last Sunday.

Thinking of Ji Jie, thinking of those overbearing, powerful, and proud sons of heaven, He Lele's initial good mood gradually calmed down.

On the day she was forcibly held by Shentu Mo, on the day she saw Ji Jie stubbornly refusing to let go, for the first time in her life, she wanted to take revenge so intensely.

She had forgotten her persistence for over a decade; she had actually... forgotten.

She had lost the part of herself she liked the most.

It was Qin Zhixiu's tolerance for Du Wei that woke her up, allowing her to rethink the future. Even if she hadn't thought of any way to solve the current predicament, but, there would always be a way, wouldn't there?

Hate would only make her suffer and wouldn't help her get out of the predicament.

Her phone rang again, another unfamiliar number.

"Hi! Do you still remember me?" A bright yet lazy female voice.

He Lele was stunned for two seconds, not daring to be sure. "R-Rong, Ms. Rong?"

Half an hour later, at an open-air cafe.

Looking at the handsome and charming Rong Qingfeng in front of her, He Lele's eyes were full of surprise; she hadn't expected to see this top-tier beauty again.

"How did you get my phone number?"

"Asked Ji Jie for it. Haven't seen you for over two months, are you doing well?" Rong Qingfeng asked with a smile.

"Mm. Is Ms. Rong here for work or rest? Is Qingya doing well?"

"I'm here for a meeting. Qingya is always complaining about being bored, saying she wants to eat the dumplings you make."

Thinking of the generous and pleasant Rong Qingya, He Lele couldn't help but lower her eyes and smile. When she looked up again, she found Rong Qingfeng looking at her mysteriously.

"Uh... what's wrong?"

"Are you really doing well?"

"..."

Seeing He Lele avoid her gaze uncomfortably, Rong Qingfeng sighed lightly with a smile. People, if they are too kind, often don't live well; being carefree and heartless, on the other hand, leads to a life without worries.

"Is there anything I can help with?"

He Lele pursed her lips, and in the end, just smiled lightly. "Thank you, Ms. Rong."

"If you don't mind, you can call me Qingfeng." There aren't many children as silly as this, and she liked it.

"...Sister Qingfeng."

"Heh... if one day you find that you like women more than men, remember to tell me."

"Ah?"

"Nothing. Although even if I say it, a silly girl like you might not take it to heart, but I'll still say it—friends are for relying on; don't carry everything by yourself."

"Mm!"

Looking at He Lele's bright smile, Rong Qingfeng knew she had wasted her breath. She shook her head with a chuckle; although this child was silly, this silliness was precisely what was most precious about her, what made her... most heart-wrenching, what made her like her so much.

"Qingya will be coming over at the end of the month. Help me keep an eye on her then."
