The spacious Lincoln sedan seemed to be gloomy due to the gloomy atmosphere. Everyone in the car, except for the driver who was separated by a small curtain, could clearly feel an inexplicable oppression.
The main character, Ain, who had caused this heavy atmosphere, remained silent. Michelle, who had been carefully trying to ask for the reason, decided to give up after trying a few times but still could not get an answer. Ling Shiliu, on the other hand, decided not to ask after carefully observing his unhappy expression.
The group returned to the hotel and naturally brought the gloominess back to their room.
In the stylish presidential suite, the dazzling lights could not hide the gloominess in the air.
She wanted to understand why Ain's mood had suddenly changed after the concert, but after being glared at, Michelle could only helplessly pin her hopes on Ling Shiliu.
In the end, this kind of thing would only fall into his hands. It was like an obligation given to the citizens by the country. The Randall family always handed Ain's matters to Ling Shiliu.
Sighing and scratching his ears, Ling Shiliu knew that if he didn't handle the situation properly, Ain's temper might affect the next concert. Moreover, it was not good for the staff who were busy with the concert to keep this kind of mood that could cause a storm at any time.
Ling Shiliu walked up to Ain, who was obviously sulking, and handed her a glass of grape juice that had just been served by room service.
Normally, Ain would have immediately accepted it and smiled happily. This was like chocolate candy to children. What tempted Ain was the sweet grape juice.
However, Ain, who was angry today, deliberately looked away, not even looking at the purple-black shiny liquid.
"Ain, aren't you going to drink? This is your favorite juice!"
If he wanted to get something out of him, he had to break through his defenses first, but he did not expect Ain to be completely unmoved today.
"No!"
"Ayin?"
"I said I don't want it!"
It was obvious that Ling Shiliu couldn't tell what he was thinking and couldn't find any clues.
According to Michelle's description, Ain was not like this at the end of the concert. Instead, she sneaked out of the lounge and returned as usual before she became eccentric.
Something must have happened when he slipped out of the lounge! But today, Ain didn't go to his patrol spot to look for him! Usually, there was only one reason why Ain would run out of the lounge. Other than looking for him, there was no other motive. But tonight, when he waited for another fifteen minutes and still did not see him, he wondered if he had been too closely guarded by Michelle and the others and missed the opportunity to sneak away.
However, since he had left the lounge, it meant that something had happened while he was back, which led to this awkward situation.
"What's wrong? Ai Yin."
"Humph!"
Ain's red and moist lips curled up high. He turned his head away and did not look at her.
Other than throwing a tantrum, there was probably no other word to describe his current situation.
Ling Shiliu decided to get straight to the point.
"Where did you go when you left the lounge today?”
If she didn't come to find him, she would have gone somewhere else to hang out, but Ain would never do such a thing. Moreover, since the problem had obviously occurred during this period of time, the solution was to get the truth out and deal with it.
However, as soon as he asked this question, Ain, who had been unwilling to even glance at him, suddenly turned her head and stared at him with a slightly resentful gaze.
Her green emerald eyes were filled with anger and resentment.
"Ayin?"
He had never seen such an expression on his face. It was completely beyond his understanding. The Ain he knew was still a spoiled child. This kind of mature expression that was completely different from childishness should not appear on his face.
Her slightly furrowed eyebrows seemed to have a kind of sensational charm, deepening the temptation on her slightly tensed beautiful face. Her green eyes that were slightly looking up at him bloomed with indescribable magic.
Her sharp gaze seemed to pierce through his dark blue suit and into his body, causing his blood to boil wildly.
Realizing that there were only him and Ain in this sealed room, Ling Shiliu was shocked to find that his heart was beating faster, and his throat was suddenly dry and unable to make a sound.
However, when Ain raised her head and looked at him with an unfathomable expression, he suddenly had the illusion that he was covered in a net. It was a feeling of uneasiness that made his heart flutter and his heart become restless. For some reason, it made him feel a chill down his spine.
Ain's deep eyes suddenly reminded him of a black panther that had locked onto its prey. That gaze seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, waiting for an opportunity to pounce on its prey.
This was completely different from the Ain he was familiar with. The sudden unfamiliar feeling made him feel a little at a loss.
He had always thought that he was just a child who craved love from others, and he indeed loved him like a younger brother. But today, Ain was exuding a strange aura that even he felt was strange. Although he wanted to get to the bottom of it, there was a warning in his heart that told him to stop.
He did not have enough time to think about whether he should listen to his subconscious warning and not ask, or whether he should dutifully ask the reason why Ain was in a bad mood. Those unfathomable green eyes stared at him sharply like an eagle. The feeling of being a target was rather uncomfortable, but no matter whether he stood up and walked to the window or walked to the bar counter attached to the room, he could not ignore his unusual cold aura.
He involuntarily took a step back and cleared his throat. He did not want Ain to notice the panic in his heart, nor did he want to think about what was going on with this cold aura.
"It's okay if you don't want to say it.”He looked around to avoid eye contact with Ain." It's so late, you should sleep. Otherwise, you might miss the flight tomorrow."”
When he woke up tomorrow morning, everything would return to normal. Ling Shiliu was so hopeful because the atmosphere in the room tonight was so strange that even he was afraid.
Ain stood up without saying a word, lowered her eyes, and nodded obediently.
After the suffocating gaze moved away from his body, Ling Shiliu suddenly felt that he could breathe smoothly again.
The feeling of suffocation that he felt not long ago suddenly disappeared without a trace, almost making him wonder if it was just an illusion.
After sending Ain to one of the three rooms in the presidential suite, Ling Shiliu helped her change as usual.
Ain quietly allowed Ling Shiliu to serve her, then obediently lay down on the soft bed.
"Good night."
After covering him with a warm feather blanket and turning off the lights, Ling Shiliu returned to his room next door to rest.
It was late at night, and everything was silent. A dark curtain of darkness covered the entire land, but it was not a darkness that made one unable to see their fingers. So when Ling Shiliu realized that someone had broken into his room and jumped up reflexively, a faint silhouette stopped him from doing anything else.
The hand holding the gun stopped in mid-air. He couldn't help but call out in surprise and confusion,"
"Ayin?"
Although the door was open, it was dark outside and inside the room. With the faint moonlight shining through the gaps in the curtains, he could barely see Ain who was standing at the door.
Usually, when Ain wanted to snatch the blanket from him, it was before he went to bed. This was the first time she had come to him in the dead of the night.
For a moment, he couldn't think of a reason for his visit in the middle of the night. Seeing that he looked different from his usual situation of hiding under his blanket, he suddenly wondered if there was something wrong with him.
"Are you feeling unwell?" This was the only reason he could think of.
As soon as he entered the room, he didn't jump onto the bed. Instead, he stood at the door and looked around the room. Tonight, Ayn was doing some strange things that confused him.
Without answering Ling Shiliu's question, Ain's gaze swept around the room, and then she suddenly walked to the wooden table beside the wardrobe.
"Ayin?"
Upon discovering the target, Ain walked forward without hesitation.
Just as Ling Shiliu was wondering what was going on, Ai Yinyang was holding something tightly in her hand. It was the gift that Ling Shiliu had been forced to accept by the American girl after the concert tonight.
The box, which was slightly larger than a palm, was still in a packaged state. Even the dark lace used for decoration was still tied on it.
Ling Shiliu was prepared to return the gift to its rightful owner as soon as he found a chance, so he never thought of opening the gift.
As soon as he returned to the restaurant, he casually threw the gift on the table. Coupled with Ain's temper tantrum, he completely forgot about the existence of this thing.
"This…do you want to keep it?" She turned the box around in her hand and her voice was much lower than usual.
"Huh?"
Ling Shiliu couldn't understand why he was behaving so strangely after barging into his room late at night. He couldn't help but frown.
He did not think that Ayn would know the origin of this gift, nor did he think that he would even notice the existence of this foreign object. However, perhaps compared to the almost empty room, this thing that was shining blue on the table alone was too abrupt, which might have attracted Ayn's attention.
"Do you want to keep the thing that girl gave you?”
"Ayin?" How did he know that this gift was from a girl? Could he have been there?
"You want to stay?" He asked again.
"Of course not."
Getting off the bed, Ling Shiliu grabbed a robe made of pure Angola wool and walked to Ain, draping it over his shoulder.
She really didn't know how to take care of her own child! Ling Shiliu secretly sighed in his heart and could not help but lecture Ain, who was as still as a stone statue.
"Why do you always refuse to listen? It's okay if you can't sleep, but at least put on some clothes before coming to see me! If you catch a cold, you'll be the one who suffers the most.”
His words made Ain extremely unhappy. He only asked if he intended to accept this unknown item, why did he talk about something unrelated?
"You want to keep it?" Ain repeated the same question persistently.
Ling Shiliu shook his head exaggeratedly and put his right hand on his forehead, looking speechless.
"I think you should have seen everything, so you should know that I have no intention of accepting it.”
It seemed that Ain had indeed come to look for him when she slipped out of the lounge, and coincidentally, she had let him see that strange scene.
But no matter what, Ain had come to look for him. Even if she was temporarily interrupted by an accident, he could still call him in the end! Moreover, in order to wait for him today, he was afraid that he would be delayed by something, so he stayed at his post for almost fifteen minutes.
So…wait a minute! Why did things seem a little off?
"Since you don't intend to accept it, why didn't you return it to that woman then?”She believed that this deduction was very reasonable, so Ain asked righteously.
"You were there too, weren't you? Since that's the case, you should know that under such circumstances, accepting it temporarily is the only choice!”
Thinking about the two of them arguing in a dark room over a boring and meaningless thing, Ling Shiliu was about to go to the door and turn on the light when Ain's answer made him stop helplessly.
"I don't know!" He gritted his teeth in anger, and his furious roar echoed in the room with only the faint moonlight. His voice sounded particularly loud and harsh.
It was such a simple action to stuff the thing back in. He couldn't figure out why Yiliu couldn't do it.
Ling Shiliu realized that he could only sigh tonight, and he really didn't know how to deal with everything.
"Stop fooling around, Ain. Put the things down first! How am I supposed to return the box if you break it?”
This was supposed to be a reasonable reminder, but Ain didn't know what went wrong, so he had to explain it to her. It was a gift from the woman he had just met!？He had been by his side for so long, yet he still couldn't compare to someone he had only known for half a day?
In an instant, he only felt anger assaulting his heart. In front of Ling Shiliu, he forcefully tore open the silver-blue wrapping paper. The hatred in his gritted teeth made people tremble involuntarily. When his peerless face was angry, there was an unbelievable charisma and charm.
Being caught by this unusual aura, Ling Shi Liu could only stare at his wanton destruction.
Before he could stop him, he had already torn the wrapping paper into pieces. He originally wanted to tear the cardboard box, but because the box was too hard, it only slightly deformed under his anger.
The exasperated Ain did not give up on this destructive operation. She threw the black box with the golden words on it on the floor and stepped on it a few times. When the tenacious box finally showed obvious cracks, she stopped in satisfaction and kicked the lid off with the tip of her foot.
There was a custom-made Pierre Carden tie in the box. It was elegant and had a unique design. Even an outsider could tell at a glance that it was expensive.
"Tie?" With a cold snort, he seemed to think that the destruction just now was not thorough enough. He used his feet that were wearing pure cotton slippers to kick wildly again.
Ling Shiliu came back to his senses and realized what was happening.
He had always thought that Ain's behavior lacked a pattern, but there was a fact that could not be ignored in this unreasonable behavior. Every matter, no matter how big or small, would anger Ain or stir up his bad mood. It was all related to him.
Was it a child's desire to monopolize?
When he tried to explain it to himself, he couldn't deny that the flame in Ayn's green eyes was an emotion that was even stronger than her desire for possession.
" What you're doing…" Something stuck in his throat, making Ling Shiliu's voice hoarse." How can I return it to its rightful owner?"”
He bent down to pick up the high-class tie that had been wrinkled by Ain's torture. When he raised his head to lecture him in a reproachful tone, he was caught off guard and pressed down on the bed by him.
"Woo…"
Ain had used her entire strength to charge forward, so even though Ling Shiliu was well-trained, it was difficult for him to prevent such an attack.
His chest was hit by Ain's head, and he felt dizzy for a moment. After using his elbow to slightly raise his upper body, a breath stuck in his throat made him cough violently.
He had never expected Ain to do this, and he was seeing stars from the collision.
"What are you doing?"
Ling Shiliu turned his head and coughed, wanting to take a good breath.
Ain, who was hugging him tightly, hid her face in his chest and did not respond to his slightly angry and puzzled question.
Ever since she saw the shocking and infuriating scene in the corridor, from the concert hall to the car and back to the restaurant, Ain's mind was filled with uneasiness about her powerlessness.
Thinking about it, it was reasonable. At Liu Du's age, he was good-looking and had a considerate and gentle personality. It was only natural for him to have one or two girlfriends.
Although he was by his side for more than half of the twenty-four hours a day, this did not guarantee that he would not have his own life. Even if he had a lover who was involved in marriage, it was his privacy. It was impossible for him to report or inform him one by one.
Thinking of this, Ain suddenly realized that she knew nothing about Ling Shiliu outside of working hours.
That's right. He had never thought that even if this person did not exist now, it did not mean that she would not appear in the future. For example, the girl at the concert tonight was very likely to become Liu's other half in the future.
If…if things really turned out like this, how could he salvage the situation?
He was terrified at the thought, for he knew very well that he would have to watch helplessly if things really got that bad. To him, Shi Liu was already everything in his life, but to Shi Liu, he could only be considered an employer like his younger brother. There was no need to say anything more to know that his final outcome would only be to be abandoned.
No! I definitely won't let things develop like that!
The more he tried not to think about it, the clearer the image of Shiliu being ambushed by the girl appeared in his mind.
There was only jealousy and fear in Ain's heart, and her rationality was buried in the sand.
He clearly knew how much Oriyu doted on him, and he often experienced how much Oriyu indulged him. It was no longer a relationship between an employer and an employee, so…even if he did something terrible to Oriyu, he would still forgive him in the end.
Yes, no matter what mistakes he made, she would still sigh, pat him on the head, and forgive him…
As long as it belonged to him, no one could snatch it away!#
