Xu Tingyu had more to say, but a storm of kisses rained down on her.
They landed on her surprised eyes and brows that had no time to withdraw the shock, on her instantly blushing cheeks, and on her soft lips.
Qi Shifeng kissed her like a madman.
He tightly clasped her waist, forcing her to lean entirely against him and bear his dense kisses.
What he wanted to say was that even if she hated him, he still had to kiss her.
He missed her scent. He tried desperately to suppress himself, but the surging desire just wouldn't go away.
He was almost going crazy.
"I'm sorry, but I really miss you... I'm going crazy."
His well - defined hands impatiently tugged open the shirt she had just buttoned up, revealing his chest muscles already soaked with sweat.
He didn't even know when he had started sweating so much.
His voice was hoarse. "Don't hate me, Tingyu."
As he spoke, he grabbed her hand and placed it on his abs.
He was like a撒娇 puppy, a huge contrast to his usual self.
All this happened so suddenly and was so shocking.
Xu Tingyu couldn't react at all. All her words were blocked in her mouth, and there were only two words in her mind: out of control.
Everything was out of control.
She tried to pull back her hand, but her whole body was weak. After several attempts, she still couldn't get it back. Instead, her hand brushed across the man's abs again and again.
The man's breathing grew heavier with each breath, but his kisses were gentle. There was a spring - like current surging in his eyes, melting the original ice and snow into a gurgling stream.
Gentle and lingering.
She couldn't see his expression. She only felt that his every breath was infinitely magnified in her ear, clear and heavy.
Like a hot wave, it caressed her cheeks and earlobes, leaving a blush.
It made her legs weak and her heart flutter.
But she couldn't let this situation continue to get out of control. So she shrank back, trying to leave his burning embrace.
But as she retreated, he advanced.
She kept retreating until she reached the door. There was nowhere else to go, and her back hit the cold door.
Cold behind her and hot in front of her. The two contrasting sensations made her let out an involuntary groan.
As soon as the sound came out, she quickly swallowed it back.
It seemed that making such a shameful sound meant she had given in.
Qi Shifeng's hand climbed up along her waistline, slowly squeezing into the gap between her back and the door.
Under his touch, her body temperature continued to rise.
She couldn't move, like a fish on a chopping block, on the verge of dehydration.
When Qi Shifeng finally let her go, her whole body was as if she had been soaked in water, and the hair on her forehead was wet.
"Sorry, but I really couldn't help myself. Tingyu, you clearly miss me too, at least, my body."
His gaze when he looked down was straightforward and unreserved, making her feel hot all over and blush to the neck.
"Qi Shifeng, you're really a madman."
She scolded him in a fit of anger, absolutely not admitting what he said.
"You're too confident. There are so many young and strong men out there. Do you think I'd miss you? You..."
Before she could finish, her neck was bitten.
It wasn't very painful, but it was enough to make her shiver.
"I've said that you're mine. We can take it slow until you fall in love with me, but there can be no one else."
He stared at her steadily. His black eyes were like a deep pool, unfathomable, making her shiver.
But before she could get angry again, she heard him say, "Tingyu, be a little more patient with me. Maybe I won't live much longer."
These words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing all her anger.
"What do you mean by that?"
She didn't care about her current state. She looked up at him, and the blush on her face faded in shock.
Qi Shifeng let out a soft sigh, lowered his head, and pressed his forehead against hers. "If I remember correctly, yesterday's car accident was the fourth one I've had this year."
This was the answer to her previous question.
Xu Tingyu didn't expect this to be true. She was completely stunned.
After a long time, she asked in a trembling voice, "How could this happen?"
It wasn't even halfway through the year, and it was already the fourth time. It definitely couldn't be a coincidence.
"Maybe I've made too many enemies. You know, I'm really not a likable person. You hate me too, don't you?"
The sense of grievance was almost overflowing.
Xu Tingyu subconsciously shook her head. "It's different between us. Don't think like that."
"How is it different? So you mean you don't hate me?"
The man continued to press for an answer.
She didn't want to answer so clearly because she didn't even know the answer herself.
So she changed the subject. "Does your back still hurt? Why hasn't Jiang Li come yet?"
Why didn't he feel pain when he bent down to kiss her?
It really gave her a headache.
Qi Shifeng, who didn't get an answer, was a little disappointed.
But considering that the problems between the two of them had been accumulating for a long time, he knew he couldn't rush.
So he didn't press further. Instead, he let her support him and walked to the living room.
It didn't take long for Jiang Li to arrive with a professional medical team.
Seeing Xu Tingyu there, Jiang Li seemed to be stunned for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure and nodded at her as a greeting.
Then he directed his men to carry in a stretcher and said to Qi Shifeng, "Mr. Qi, be careful."
Qi Shifeng gave him a cold look and dodged his hand. "No need. I'm not that bad off yet."
In fact, he had already been to the hospital for a check - up yesterday. His back had indeed been hit, but there were no serious injuries.
The bruises were normal. If it weren't for wanting Xu Tingyu to feel sorry for him, he wouldn't have staged such a show.
But this Jiang Li had been with him for so many years. Why didn't he make any progress?
At a time like this, was it his turn to support him?
His wife was still standing here.
"Tingyu, can you go with me? I know it's very late, but I..."
He reached out his hand to Xu Tingyu.
Just as he was thinking about whether to say he was scared and thought it might be too exaggerated, Xu Tingyu interrupted him.
"Okay, I'll go with you. Is Youyou okay at home?"
If Qi Shifeng kept getting hurt, would that child be in danger?
"Don't worry. The bodyguards are all there. The home security system is the latest and very comprehensive."
Qi Shifeng held her hand, reassuring her.
Since that was the case, Xu Tingyu supported him and walked towards the car outside.
The medical staff had come in an ambulance, but Qi Shifeng refused and took a business car instead.
In the car, he directly warned Jiang Li, "Don't let the people in the old mansion know about this."
The medical staff were all from his family, but such a big commotion, if it got out, no one knew how it would develop.
Moreover, the old man might cause all sorts of trouble.
He wanted to win his wife over without any unnecessary troubles.
Jiang Li carefully glanced at his expression and quickly nodded. "I know, Mr. Qi. You can rest assured."
