บท 79: Divinity and Mystery
For several days, An Qi rested at Heart Lake Villa. Leng Yuchen used the excuse of her being sick to prevent her from having to slog back and forth work at the company.
"How about I set up a new company for you to work at?" Leng Yuchen suggested.
"No. That's not necessary," An Qi replied.
"Well… I see that your resume mentions news broadcasting. Why don't we start a media company together?" he suggested, not yet willing to give up on the idea.
"No," she refused again.
"But, recent developments in new media have proven to be very strong. Moreover, the Leng Group is already involved in a lot of entertainment businesses. How about I go to our partners and discuss the possibilities of a collaboration?" he offered.
"No." An Qi shook her head as she took a sip of the tea that Leng Yuchen had just brought to her.
Leng Yuchen then gazed upon her face and pleaded with An Qi, "Dear, our Little Yufei has already gone to kindergarten and made new friends. If you continue to stay at home alone like this, you will only continue to worsen."
An Qi was speechless. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. But, before she had a chance to respond, Leng Yuchen spoke again.
"Dear, because you want to be strong and don't want to announce our relationship status so soon, I can hardly address you as 'dear' when we are at the Leng Group. So, if you go back and act strangely when you are tired out, our relationship will surely be negatively affected. I really don't want to see such a thing happen!" As Leng Yuchen voiced his concerns, his words made An Qi's feel numb.
Clearly worried about her well being, Leng Yuchen reached into the folds of An Qi's quilt and kept rubbing her chest. The more An Qi started to get along with Leng Yuchen, the more she felt that he really did seem attractive to her at times.
But, at the same time, she sometimes felt that he was a terribly bad person! Moreover, his kind of 'bad' was different than others'. The bad things that others did were perhaps things like saying mean words to her or stealing things that belonged to her.
But, Leng Yuchen's 'bad' ran deep… Down to his very soul. As such, it was not easily seen by others. But, once it was displayed, the price to pay was that it would never go away, as by that time, one was already rendered defenseless against it!
It was as if he was growing on An Qi as he displayed all of his strengths and weaknesses. In front of An Qi, he finally stepped down from the proverbial altar, where everyone worshipped him, being willing to show her his human side.
At the same time, Leng Yuchen understood An Qi completely too. Over these recent days, Leng Yuchen seemed to have gotten to know An Qi very well.
Basically, except for when it came to An Yufei's affairs, Leng Yuchen basically dominated An Qi's whole life. However, at that moment, An Qi realized that he didn't yet control her work. This was her reason for continuing to deny his requests.
An Qi pulled Leng Yuchen's hand away from her and said, "Leng Yuchen, as you know, I was awake when Gu Xiaonan visited me in the hospital. So, you know I am telling the truth when I say that whatever she said really had no effect on me."
Leng Yuchen's smiling face sank instantly. "An Qi, do you think I stopped you from returning to the Leng Group because of Gu Xiaonan and Yu Hao?"
"Isn't that the case?" An Qi asked.
"Of course not!" Leng Yuchen said. "The two of them are not powerful enough to bother us much."
Leng Yuchen continued to make tea for An Qi as he spoke. Because he knew that An Qi loved to eat, he always tried his best to find the latest and most trendy snacks for her to enjoy.
But, every time An Qi had finished eating, he had to make a pot of his special tea for her to make, as it helped her feel less guilty for eating the snacks. It also helped aid her digestion.
Now, making this special tea had become a daily task for Leng Yuchen. You could say that it was becoming part of his formal routine, just like eating and sleeping. So, even when they were having disagreements, Leng Yuchen would still make tea for her.
An Qi said with a sigh of relief, "Leng Yuchen, it's good that you think this way. After all, it's a private matter between me and Gu Xiaonan. Since we are in the same company, I will not make things difficult for you. You can rest assured that I will adjust my mood whenever I must deal with them."
Leng Yuchen handed the tea cup to An Qi and asked, "Silly girl, have you ever heard of the saying 'The Trees long for peace, but the wind will never cease?' You plan to give them your blessing to make peace, but do you actually think that Gu Xiaonan will stop there? She seems intent upon making you miserable."
"Well... I just thought that, since I'm happy now… And what they did indirectly helped lead me to you… I should perhaps show my gratitude and bury the hatchet once and for all," An Qi replied.
An Qi had such a harmonious character, if she had been born into an ordinary family, her personality would have been a perfect fit. However, the reality was that she was An Shijie's daughter.
Although Hairui was small, it was a well-known enterprise in the city. Therefore, whether now or in the future, she knew that she would have to face a big fight over the company inheritance with Gu Xiaonan and her mother.
An Qi lowered her eyes, trying to conceal her uneasiness. Leng Yuchen cupped her face and spoke to her in a loving tone, "You can rest assured that I will not let them hurt you."
"I know, but..." An Qi wanted to say more, but Leng Yuchen suddenly kissed her on her lips.
Leng Yuchen then stretched out his hand and rubbed her cheeks. Her fair and tender skin made him reluctant to let go.
He ran his hand down from her cheeks to her neck, then all the way down to her flat tummy. In that same tummy, she had carried their daughter, An Yufei.
As he touched this sacred and mysterious area on An Qi, Leng Yuchen found it hard to control himself. But, he was finally able to restrain himself, and he snorted and went into the bathroom.
An Qi looked very nervous as she sat on the bed. She did not understand why she liked Leng Yuchen so much. Although she did not mind him getting intimate with him, she always felt so nervous and breathless when the critical moment arrived.
She heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom. Leng Yuchen was taking a cold shower yet again. This same situation had kept repeating itself the past few days. In fact, it wouldn't surprise An Qi if Leng Yuchen came out of the bathroom, suffering from a bad flu due to his taking so many cold showers!
In the bathroom, Leng Yuchen's heated body gradually cooled down as it was doused with the cold water from the shower. During this time, he kept thinking to himself…
No problem. I will gradually warm her up. She will accept me!
Meanwhile, at the An family's old house, there was an air of dissent that was hanging over everyone. Because of Gu Xiaonan and Yu Hao, An Shijie had lost his temper at Zeng Xuerou. Then, whenever An Qi was mentioned, the tension only escalated.
"No, I won't agree… No matter what you say!" An Shijie vehemently denied Zeng Xuerou's proposal.
"An Shijie, hear me out completely before you make a decision." Zeng Xuerou was worried that An Shijie's blood pressure would escalate to a dangerous level, so she rushed to bring him a glass of water and the pills that he often took.
But, she did not expect that An Shijie would only become more angry when he saw the medicine in her hand. "You really don't want to see me well at all, do you? You'd be happy if I stayed weak and sick!" An Shijie yelled as he threw a pair of floral scissors to the ground, causing mud to splatter all over Zeng Xuerou's shoes.
"An Shijie, when I first married you, you weren't like this. Why have you become so unreasonable lately?" Zeng Xuerou ignored the mud as she walked over to An Shijie. As she looked at him, her eyes were filled with grief.
