Beijing-Hong Kong Rosemary

Chapter 46 I'm not ready yet
Shen Guining didn't know why she was trembling, she just couldn't control it.

She had never undressed a man, much less touched a man's chest muscles.

"You're burning up."

She attributed the cause to Qu Yanci.

"Mr. Qu, can you solve this yourself?"

Qu Yanci reached out and held her waist, his voice low and husky, "Don't act coquettishly."

Shen Guining's eyelashes trembled, and her pupils dilated slightly. "I didn't."

She wasn't being coquettish at all.
Qu Yanci placed his palm on her back, drawing the girl closer, and kissed her lips.

Shen Guining subconsciously opened her mouth to receive his breath.

The air was filled with the stickiness of honey water and the faint aroma of red wine.

I don't know if it was the alcohol in my mouth, but the kiss felt hot and burning.

Only when her breathing became thin did Qu Yanci release her lips and kiss her neck.

A strong, slender arm restrained Shen Guining's waist.

Today she wore a camisole as an inner layer, with a cardigan sweater on top, unbuttoned, revealing glimpses of her cleavage at the neckline.

Qu Yanci's lips pressed against her collarbone and kissed downwards, his high nose bridge rubbing against her skin.

Fine and tingling.

It felt as if a dense current was flowing through my blood vessels.

Ruby on the ground looked up at the two of them, not understanding what was going on.

Shen Guining's heart pounded. She gripped Qu Yanci's shirt tightly, her voice slightly hoarse and breathless, "Mr. Qu... I'm not ready yet..."

Although she doesn't object, this kind of development seems a bit too fast.

Qu Yanci stopped what he was doing, looked up into her moist eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Go to sleep."

Shen Guining quickly got off him and looked at the water glass on the table. "Honey water, do you still want some?"

"Hmm," he murmured.

Shen Guining carefully handed it over, saying, "Then I'll go back to my room. Goodnight, Mr. Qu."

After saying that, she immediately turned around and went back to her room, leaning against the door and patting her heaving chest.

My heart is still pounding.

It took a while for my heart rate to gradually return to normal.

The clothes were stained with several ambiguous scents.

Shen Guining locked the door and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

She noticed a hickey below her collarbone when she looked in the mirror while washing up.

I couldn't help but recall that scene again.

During the kiss, the veins on the man's arm bulged, and his strong arm gripped her firmly.

Those eyes were as dark as ink; a single glance from them felt like being drawn into them.

Last time, Xia Xi said she wanted to play with Ruby, so on Sunday afternoon, Shen Guining took Ruby with her to the Qu family.

The little girl was overjoyed to see Ruby and hugged her tightly, exclaiming, "So cute! I want to pet her!"

The little guy looks like a round, chubby little ball of flesh, and he's especially good at being cute and endearing.

Seeing that Xia Xi was about to carry Ruby to the sofa, Shen Guining stopped her in time, "Didn't you say your uncle has mysophobia?"

Xia Xi smiled smugly, "It's okay, he's not home today, he won't know."

Uncle Bai couldn't stand it anymore and reminded her, "Miss, the master doesn't like animal hair in the house."

Xia Xi wouldn't listen. "Uncle Bai, you're not allowed to tell my uncle. Just pretend you didn't see anything."

Uncle Bai: "..."

This is probably a difficult problem.

Shen Guining glanced at the time and said, "Xixi, let's go practice dancing first, and play after class."

“Okay.” Xia Xi nodded. “Uncle Bai, could you please look after Ruby for a while?”

Uncle Bai reached out and took the puppy. "Okay."

Shen Guining: "Thank you for your help, Uncle Bai."

Uncle Bai said, "It's no trouble at all."

"Let's clean the living room before Mr. Shen returns." Shen Guining and Xia Xi went upstairs.

Before entering the dance studio, I would warm up and stretch my muscles as usual.

"Sister, do you think my uncle has a girlfriend?" Xia Xi asked while stretching her legs.

Shen Guining paused, her eyes flashing. "Why do you ask that?"

Xia Xi pouted, "Because he hasn't been coming home to stay much lately, he can't be working overtime at the company every day."

Shen Guining felt guilty and didn't know how to respond. Actually, it wasn't too bad. Mr. Qu didn't come to stay at the apartment often, only occasionally.

Xia Xi thought for a moment and then said, "Actually, he's already quite old. If he wants to have a girlfriend, then let him."

At such an advanced age?

It turns out that Mr. Qu was already quite old in Xia Xi's eyes.

I finished my dance class at five o'clock.

As soon as it ended, Xia Xi couldn't wait to run downstairs.

Ruby was having a great time playing on the lawn outside, throwing tantrums and rolling around.

Fearing it might be thirsty, Shen Guining took out the small pet water bottle from her bag and gave it some to drink.

Xia Xi offered, "Sister, let me feed her."

"Okay." Shen Guining handed her the kettle.

Xia Xi clapped her hands. "Ruby, come and have some water."

The little one obediently went over when he heard the sound, took two sips and then stopped drinking, then stuck out his little tongue and licked her palm.

Xia Xi is completely charmed by it.

Suddenly, a bold idea popped into my head: what if Sister Ning was Uncle's girlfriend? That way, Ruby would practically be considered part of her family too.

After playing until almost six o'clock, Shen Guining saw that it was getting late and said, "Xixi, we have to go back now. We'll bring it over to play with you again next time."

Xia Xi looked reluctant to part with her and was about to invite her to stay for dinner when she saw the familiar Maybach parked in the yard, bypassing the fountain.

Why is my uncle back so early today?

Shen Guining looked up.

Qu Yanci got out of the car, and Han Yi followed behind him with a folder.

Ruby ran over with her short legs and went straight to Qu Yanci's feet.

Xia Xi was afraid the little guy would be thrown out, so she rushed over to save him and picked Ruby up. "Uncle, it didn't mean to, don't be angry."

Qu Yanci didn't speak, and Ruby barked twice more in his direction.

Xia Xi asked curiously, "Uncle, does Ruby know you?"

Han Yi saw through it but didn't say anything. It wasn't just that they knew each other; this dog was actually brought back by President Qu as a gift for Miss Shen.

Shen Guining's heart tightened, and he changed the subject, saying, "Mr. Qu, Assistant Han, I've taken Ruby back."

Qu Yanci looked at her and said, "You can have dinner before you leave."

Shen Guining politely declined, "No need, I didn't bring Ruby's food, she must be hungry too."

Qu Yanci nodded and told Uncle Bai to prepare the car.

Before Shen Guining left, Xia Xi whispered to her, "Sister, bring Ruby over to play next time."

“But I have to perform in Shanghai next weekend, so I can’t come and teach you to dance.”

Xia Xi pouted, "Okay."

Shen Guining said goodbye to her, got into the car and left.
-
This trip to Shanghai will last four days, and figuring out where to settle Ruby is still a problem.

The little guy was still too young, and Shen Guining was a little worried about leaving him at the pet store.

That evening, after returning from the theater, she sat on the sofa, conflicted.

A short while later, the sound of the door opening and closing could be heard at the entrance.

Qu Yanci walked in, casually draping his coat over the sofa.

Shen Guining snapped out of her daze and called out, "Mr. Qu."

"What are you thinking about with that gloomy face?" He could tell at a glance.

Shen Guining put down her crossed legs and sat up straight. "I'm going to perform in Shanghai in a couple of days, and I haven't figured out what to do with Ruby yet."
