If you're not going to marry me, why are you flirting? If you dare run away, I'll sever yo

My heart trembled.

Qi Nan turned his head away as if he had been electrocuted.

"You look like a vampire."

"Vampires aren't as gentle as me," Xia Ningqi said, burying her face in his neck again.

She stopped bleeding from the wound, took out a pink band-aid from the box, and applied it to the wound.

Wait until she finishes doing all that.

Qi Nan then got up and used the remaining straps to tie Chen Hai's hands.

Not long after, Uncle Hat arrived.

Chen Hai was taken away in handcuffs for a talk, and Qi Nan and the other man went to the police station with him. They found his chat history with Lin Xiaoxiao on his phone.

This situation was clearly beyond Qi Nan's expectations.

He never expected that Lin Xiaoxiao would hate Xia Ningqi so much, even to the point of using her body to bribe Chen Hai into committing a crime.

Accept the summons.

Lin Xiaoxiao was quickly taken to the police station.

The police officer reprimanded her, saying, "The person chatting with Chen Hai on his phone is you, isn't it?"

"yes..."

After Lin Xiaoxiao responded, she glanced at Xia Ningqi with disgust, her resentment evident.

"Then do you have anything else to say in your defense?"

"I just regret that Chen Hai made a mistake, allowing her to escape unscathed."

...

As she was handcuffed, Xia Ningqi passed by Qi Nan, her voice self-deprecating, "Qi Nan, if I hadn't hooked you up back then, wouldn't I be living a very happy life now?"

Before Qi Nan could reply, Xia Ningqi had already stepped in front of him, separating the two of them, her eyes filled with undisguised hostility.

Lin Xiaoxiao met her gaze.

"Hmph, just like a cat guarding its food."

Without giving them much time to talk, the police dragged Lin Xiaoxiao into the detention room.

It was already past midnight when the statement was taken.

Qi Nan and Xia Ningqi walked out of the police station, their arms still throbbing slightly, but compared to the last time their palms were pierced, the pain this time was still tolerable.

What a tragedy...

They hailed a taxi and the two got into the back seat.

"You open the door for everyone who knocks; could you please not be so careless next time?"

Xia Ningqi had exquisitely beautiful features, and placed a slender hand on Qi Nan's leg. "Are you worried about me?"

"I care about you? You made me leave with nothing, why should I care about you?"

"You're just concerned about me..."

Xia Ningqi could see through his insincerity. Her tone was unhurried, and her fair fingertips had unknowingly traced from his leg to the back of his hand.

Qi Nan got goosebumps and retorted, "No way."

Xia Ningqi leaned closer, her phoenix eyes sparkling, and smiled dreamily, "You're just concerned about me, you're just concerned about me."

"Xia Ningqi, are you sick? You're like a broken record."

"Then just admit it."

Qi Nan's heart was racing. He attributed it to Xia Ningqi getting too close and wearing overly revealing clothes. After all, any guy would panic in this situation, unless he was gay.

"Yes, yes, if you insist on thinking that way, then think that way."

Qi Nan closed his eyes, intending to calm down.

The car window was halfway open.

The evening breeze, carrying the scent of fresh grass, brushed against his face, crisp and clear with the crispness of early spring.

Xia Ningqi didn't say anything.

But the gaze remained fixed on him.

The tree in my heart has completely grown branches and leaves, bearing huge fruit. I can't help but want to get closer to him, to make every inch of him belong to me.

A bony rub came through my fingers.

The girl's palms were delicate, and she pressed her hand against Qi Nan's back, their five fingers intertwined tightly.

When did this girl become so good at this...?

And is our relationship really that good now?

Although Qi Nan had his eyes closed, he felt increasingly energetic, and his single-core processor simply stopped working.

He didn't react.

Xia Ningqi smiled, feeling as if she had eaten a sweet date.

It's so cute when she pretends to be asleep. She says she's annoyed with me, but when it comes to this kind of situation, she doesn't even dare to utter a word.

...

About ten minutes passed.

The car stopped downstairs at the apartment building. Qi Nan opened his eyes, released Xia Ningqi's hand, and got out of the car as if nothing had happened.

Xia Ningqi followed behind him, her hands still warm from the previous encounter.

"Slow down."

"I'm sleepy, I'm going back to sleep."

As Qi Nan turned the corner in the corridor and stopped to look for his keys, a pair of hands wrapped around him from behind.

The back has a noticeably soft and bouncy feel.

Qi Nan's body stiffened at first, then he said helplessly, "Xia Ningqi, don't underestimate the repression of any single female flower."

"It's reacting?"

The wind lifted the girl's skirt, and also brought Qi Nan's silence.

If this had happened a few months ago...

Qi Nan never expected that such vulgar words would come out of her mouth.

"Stop joking around. Get some rest; you have class tomorrow."

"Hmm," Xia Ningqi said, pressing her forehead against hers and tightening her grip.

"I can let go, but can you please stop avoiding me? Let's just make up like this..."

The shirt wasn't thick, and a few tears seeped through, leaving a damp, warm feeling.

Who could stand this?

Qi Nan's heart softened, and she could only nod. "I understand, Miss. I'll continue to let you serve me from now on. Is that alright?"

Xia Ningqi's voice was gentle, "I won't order you around, we can just be normal friends..."

"Alright, whatever you say."

Only after Qi Nan finished speaking did Xia Ningqi release her grip and wipe away the moisture from the corner of her eyes.

The air seemed to stand still at that moment.

Until I heard "Goodnight" in my ear

Qi Nan scratched his head and awkwardly replied, "Goodnight."
