Because of his injury, Qiao Yixuan had specifically instructed the company's secretary to work at home almost the entire time. On the other hand, Li Yinuo was busy taking care of Qiao Yixuan every day. Qiao Yixuan felt that it was a good thing that he didn't delay the progress of the company and didn't delay his time with Li Yinuo.
"Yixuan, this is the chicken soup Auntie Li made for you. You should rest for a while." Li Yinuo was placing a small bowl on the table for Qiao Yixuan.
Perhaps it was because the small bowl was a little too hot, but after Li Yinuo released her hand, she immediately pinched her ears. Qiao Yixuan's heart ached when he saw Li Yinuo's state and her red fingers.
She casually pulled Li Yinuo's little hand over and looked at the red patch. She said in a reproachful tone," How could you be so careless? Don't carry it next time. If you want to carry it, you have to use that plate, understand?"”
Li Yinuo pursed her lips and smiled lightly." I just hope that you can drink it soon. Auntie Li's chicken soup is really fragrant. Hurry up and drink it."”
Qiao Yixuan looked at Li Yinuo's lovable appearance and slowly picked up the exquisite porcelain spoon. He slowly scooped a small spoonful and looked at Li Yinuo. Then, he winked and signaled for Li Yinuo to take a sip.
Qiao Yixuan gently blew on the spoonful of chicken soup.
Li Yinuo felt a little shy when Qiao Yixuan insisted on giving her a drink. However, Qiao Yixuan insisted, so she had no choice.
However, Qiao Yixuan forced her to drink almost half a bowl.
" Yixuan, I drank it all," Li Yinuo muttered softly. This was clearly the soup that she had painstakingly made for Qiao Yixuan. She had not expected that most of it would end up in her stomach.
"Silly girl, look at how you've been taking care of me recently. You've taken good care of me, but what about you? Your face is pale.”Qiao Yixuan's tone was full of gentleness. Every word he said was like a fragrant coffee. Although it sounded faint, the fragrance was indeed strong and lingering in one's mouth.
"But…" Li Yinuo still wanted to say something, but Qiao Yixuan shook his head and said shamelessly," I'm hungry. Give me some more chicken soup."”
When Qiao Yixuan said this, Li Yinuo was instantly happy. Without waiting for Qiao Yixuan to say anything, he picked up the exquisite glass bowl and went to the kitchen. The porcelain spoon and the glass bowl made a crisp sound. It was especially beautiful.
However, Aunt Li said that Qiao Yixuan didn't like silver spoons. Instead, he preferred the elegance of porcelain.
In order to take good care of Qiao Yixuan, Li Yinuo would let Aunt Li go to bed first before accompanying Qiao Yixuan. She would only leave the room in peace after Qiao Yixuan fell asleep.
Aunt Li had just recovered from her illness. Li Yinuo could not bear to see Aunt Li work too hard.
This also gave Li Yinuo and Qiao Yixuan more opportunities to spend time alone.
Li Yinuo's heart began to beat wildly at the thought of this. She did not know when it started, but whenever she saw or thought of Qiao Yixuan, Li Yinuo's heart would tremble uncontrollably. It was not fear, it was not fear, it was attachment.
"Yixuan, you should rest early. We'll be busy with the company's matters tomorrow.”Li Yinuo walked forward and helped Qiao Yixuan lie comfortably on the bed.
"I can't sleep." Qiao Yixuan looked at Li Yinuo's beautiful eyes, but he could not fall asleep. Every day, he wished that he could see Li Yinuo. He could even skip sleep and eat.
"Then let me tell you a story." Li Yinuo smiled sweetly.
Qiao Yixuan was stunned for a moment before he grinned and nodded.
Qiao Yixuan had become fond of smiling after spending time with Li Yinuo. When he smiled, he looked exceptionally good. It was as if every single one of his facial features was smiling. It infected the people around him. He looked much better than those who often smiled.
"Let me tell you a story from my childhood.”Li Yinuo looked at Qiao Yixuan. She suddenly wanted to tell him about her past. She wanted to tell him about the things that she had kept hidden in her heart. She wanted to tell him now because she trusted Qiao Yixuan, even if those things were filled with sadness and pain.
Qiao Yixuan did not expect Li Yinuo to tell him this, but he knew that Li Yinuo had opened up to him.
"When I was born, my mother passed away. At that time, I was also particularly fragile. Although my father hated me at that time, I was still the last descendant of my mother in this world, so my father still brought me home. When I was four years old, I was in kindergarten. At that time, every child was dressed very beautifully. Every day, their parents would come to pick them up, but I had to walk home alone every day. When school ended, it was six o'clock. Because I was young, it was already eight o'clock when I walked home. I don't know when I started to get used to it.”Li Yinuo's eyes had already turned slightly red when she said this.
Qiao Yixuan's heart ached as he looked at her. He gently held Li Yinuo's hand, wanting to give her warmth.
Li Yinuo only smiled." At that time, I really understood very early on that my father didn't like me. I once naively asked my father why he didn't like me. But that day, he was drunk and gave me a tight slap. He glared at me with bloodshot eyes and gritted teeth. I even felt that I would be eaten alive by him. So I was scared. I never asked such a question again. From then on, I was sensible very early and could understand the fickleness of the world. However, I had no choice. Although I was afraid, afraid that my father would hit me, I knew that all of this was because of me. I killed my mother, so I deserved it.”When he said this, Li Yinuo almost bit through her lips. Qiao Yixuan couldn't bear to look at her red lips. Qiao Yixuan felt extremely sad as tears rolled down his face.
He thought that he was the only one who would have so much unhappiness, fear, and helplessness when facing his loved ones when he was young.
"Don't cry." Qiao Yixuan only said these two simple words before hugging Li Yinuo.
Li Yinuo was much stronger than he had imagined.
" I really wanted to have a family. I was afraid of being abandoned, but my father didn't want to see me in the end until I met you. Yixuan, I'm really grateful that fate allowed us to meet. Although I hated and feared you, I relied on you even more.”Li Yinuo lowered her head and felt the warmth from Qiao Yixuan.
Li Yinuo was a gentle girl. Although her mind was tougher than her peers, she only wanted an ordinary life and a stable family.
Her tears were like a continuous stream of mountains and rivers, wetting Qiao Yixuan's heart drop by drop.
Qiao Yixuan held Li Yinuo's shoulders with both hands and stared seriously into Li Yinuo's teary eyes. His voice was delicate and gentle, with an indescribable temptation." Yinuo, I will treat you well.”
As soon as she finished speaking, her soft lips had already gently touched Li Yinuo's small, tear-stained lips.
Li Yinuo did not expect Qiao Yixuan to kiss her. She widened her eyes and looked at Qiao Yixuan's misty and bright eyes. It was like an abyss. Li Yinuo wanted to struggle, but in the end, she sank into this sweet kiss.
Qiao Yixuan's lips were a little sweet as he slowly kissed Li Yinuo's cherry-like lips. That was the person he had longed for for a long time. That was the person he wanted to protect.
When the snake-like wine poured into Li Yinuo's mouth, Li Yinuo felt as if she had been bewitched by the pure wine. It was so beautiful. Li Yinuo replied awkwardly, her face full of shyness.
The man in front of her was the person she loved. It had been seven years. In these seven years, there had been hatred, fear, and finally, deep love. There were no other emotions.
Qiao Yixuan looked at Li Yinuo's face and slowly let go of him.
She used her gentle fingers to gently wipe away Li Yinuo's tears. Hugging Li Yinuo tightly in his arms, their hearts seemed to have become one. There was nothing to hide. It was the sincerity of their mutual love.
"Yinuo, don't leave tonight, okay?" Qiao Yixuan's voice was gentle.
Li Yinuo's face turned red and she quickly broke free. Wasn't this progress too fast? Qiao Yixuan's words made Li Yinuo so embarrassed that she didn't dare to look at him again.
Qiao Yixuan smiled when he saw Li Yinuo's adorable look. His clean and beautiful face was smiling without a trace of impurity. It was genuine happiness." Silly girl, what are you thinking? I only said that I could hug you to sleep tonight.”
After saying that, he tapped Li Yinuo's little head.
Her face was so red that it looked like it was about to drip water. Qiao Yixuan was in a good mood.
Li Yinuo's eyes widened." Are you teasing me?" Humph." Perhaps it was because of the passionate situation just now that the two of them had become even closer, Li Yinuo had become even bolder when facing Qiao Yixuan.
Qiao Yixuan didn't reply to Li Yinuo. He simply pulled Li Yinuo over domineeringly and personally helped Li Yinuo remove his shoes and socks. Then, he helped Li Yinuo onto the bed and hugged Li Yinuo tightly. His lips were so close to Li Yinuo that Li Yinuo could hear Qiao Yixuan's soft breathing.
She wanted to struggle, but she gave up in the end. She, Li Yinuo, could not bear to see Qiao Yixuan feel any disappointment.
"Yixuan, what do you think we're doing?”Li Yinuo looked at Qiao Yixuan's handsome face. His abyss-like black pupils were looking at her gently.
"Whatever you say." Qiao Yixuan blinked his beautiful eyes. He was clearly doing it on purpose.
Li Yinuo pouted when she heard that." It seems like you don't like me.”It seemed that the IQ of a woman in love would really become zero. At least after saying this, Li Yinuo felt that she had really become a relationship idiot with zero IQ.
Qiao Yixuan smiled." Tell me honestly, how long have you liked me?"”
Li Yinuo's face turned slightly red. He had not expected Qiao Yixuan to discover the secret in his heart with just one sentence.
"No, I didn't." Li Yinuo didn't want to admit it. She buried her face in Qiao Yixuan's chest and didn't say anything else.
At this moment, Qiao Yixuan said," I remember the first time I saw you. At that time, you were so small and filled with fear. That tearful face made me feel terrible. I thought that I had to save you, so I kept working hard. I originally thought that after saving you, we would never have the chance to meet again. However, I didn't expect you to be abandoned. At that time, I was a little excited. That kind of joy made me feel a little guilty towards you. I just didn't want you to think that I was a heartless person. I'm very happy that you're willing to come back with me and stay by my side. I don't spend much time with you. I let you go to school, but I didn't expect you to be so radiant and likable. I didn't mean to hurt Huang Yu, but I was afraid that you would leave me. I locked you up with chains for seven whole years. You were in pain, and I spent every day in pain. I didn't dare to face you, but I saw you like that. 'Promise, I'm so selfish, but I really can't stop my heart. I want you to stay by my side forever and not go anywhere.'”Even Qiao Yixuan himself was surprised when he said these words. This was the first time he had said something like this in his life, and every word he said was from the bottom of his heart.
Li Yinuo was even more shocked. She was happy. She was happy that Qiao Yixuan had always been by her side. She was happy that Qiao Yixuan actually liked her. She had thought that Qiao Yixuan might not like her.
Hearing Qiao Yixuan's words, Li Yinuo subconsciously hugged Qiao Yixuan tightly. He didn't say anything, only a smile on his face.
"Yinuo, you'll be my future wife in the future. You're a woman now, understand?”Qiao Yixuan's words were both domineering and warm.
Li Yinuo, who was already a little shy and at a loss, only nodded strenuously.
Qiao Yixuan's heart finally relaxed. The two people who truly loved each other would really be together for the rest of their lives.
However, Qiao Yixuan knew that Li Yinuo's appearance had given him an additional weakness. In the business world, they were always scheming against each other. Qiao Yixuan was thinking about how to protect Li Yinuo and not let her suffer the slightest grievance.
That night, the two of them slept very soundly.
Aunt Li was still curious about Qiao Yixuan and Li Yinuo when she woke up early in the morning. This was because the two of them did not have the habit of sleeping in at all. Thinking of this, Aunt Li went to Li Yinuo's room to take a look. Li Yinuo was not inside. Out of curiosity, Aunt Li went to Qiao Yixuan's room.
She had just opened the door when she saw Li Yinuo and Qiao Yixuan embracing each other. They looked very happy.
Thinking of this, Aunt Li was extremely happy. After such a long time, she had finally settled her worries.
After Aunt Li left, Li Yinuo secretly opened her eyes. Her heart jumped in shock. She was so shy that she died when Aunt Li saw her.
Li Yinuo was about to get up when Qiao Yixuan hugged her tightly." Yinuo, let me hug you a little longer."”
It turned out that Qiao Yixuan had woken up as well. When Li Yinuo thought of this, he became even more embarrassed. However, Qiao Yixuan still did not let go of him, so he could only lie obediently in Qiao Yixuan's arms.
