Chapter 97: V7: He kissed her lips, very soft, very tender_2
He enlarged and minimized the map on his phone, and after looking around, he locked onto a direction and started walking towards it.
Arriving at the entrance of a white three-story villa, he took a deep breath and pressed the doorbell.
The door opened to reveal a stunningly beautiful mixed-race woman. After glancing at his appearance, she turned and spoke in slightly imperfect but fairly fluent Chinese, "Dad, someone who looks a lot like you is here, is it Uncle He?"
Upon hearing that, a tall figure came out, and when he saw He Qimo, he paused for a moment, then sighed softly, "Come in."
He Qimo narrowed his eyes, remembering the man he had angrily hit after what happened back then, his fingertips curling slightly.
Finally, he withdrew his deep, despondent emotions and stepped inside.
...
Cannes, France.
In the luxurious suite of a hotel, Gu Zixuan stared at Feng Chengjin in shock, not thinking this was a good suggestion at all.
Feng Chengjin, however, seemed indifferent, and after speaking, he returned to the living room.
Gu Zixuan followed him and only then realized he was working, the number of emails on his computer was astounding.
But before she could see the exact number, Feng Chengjin slid the mouse and closed all the windows.
Thinking he was maintaining privacy, Gu Zixuan regrettably lowered her gaze.
The next moment, the computer was swiftly pushed in front of her.
"Since we can’t go out, let’s work."
Gu Zixuan: "..."
Staring at Feng Chengjin’s honest and clear-eyed look for a long time, she finally confirmed he wasn’t joking, "Now?"
"Now."
Gu Zixuan really felt she must have unknowingly offended Feng Chengjin at some point, "..."
Ten minutes later, she started working sensibly, drafting detailed plans for a proposal.
Raising his eyes from the fax documents, Feng Chengjin’s dark pupils assessed her, then suddenly, his gaze shifted from calm to deep, and the corners of his lips formed a meaningful light smile.
Gu Zixuan looked down, feeling very confused.
Firstly, thinking that discarding her phone and contacts just to run away with him was already inappropriate.
Secondly, considering they were a man and a woman alone in a room late at night, felt even more inappropriate.
As she disinterestedly looked at the documents, she calculated how much longer it would be before she could leave.
Finally, when she had thought of an excuse, deciding that since the door wasn’t closed, and Amy should have left, she prepared to leave.
Feng Chengjin issued an even more frustrating command.
After she finished speaking, he nodded in acknowledgment, then dialed Jiang Yuan, "Miss Gu is working here, her door is not closed, can you close it and bring Qin Nuo over to work together."
Gu Zixuan: "..."
Both Jiang Yuan and Qin Nuo were equally bewildered when they arrived.
Especially Qin Nuo, who was struggling with jet lag, was sleeping in a daze, with a messy bedhead.
However, possibly used to working overtime with Feng Chengjin for a long time, once hearing the work assignment, both Jiang Yuan and Qin Nuo immediately went into work mode.
Seeing all three starting to focus on their tasks, Gu Zixuan really had no way of speaking up if she wanted to leave.
They were working on an e-commerce project proposal.
Feng Chengjin was extremely meticulous.
Actually, the proposal could already be considered good, but he still wanted a more impressive copy.
So Jiang Yuan kept retrieving data from overseas, and Qin Nuo repeatedly searched for case studies, direction, and proofread figures.
As for Feng Chengjin, it was simple, he continually nodded or shook his head.
Gu Zixuan resigned herself, trying to rack her brain to think if there was any direction she hadn’t considered that could achieve a better breakthrough.
The working atmosphere among the four was very pleasant, and Gu Zixuan didn’t expect that once she got into the work, she would be so in tune with Feng Chengjin.
After all, most of their opinions were in agreement.
Finally, the e-commerce strategy shifted from expanding market share, competing by acquiring volume at the low end, to fully transitioning to high-end overseas purchasing, creating their own exclusive logistics, and competing in quality, essentially solidifying the plan.
Next came the tedious task of repeatedly verifying data, making tables, adjusting the format of the copy, characters, and making the PowerPoint presentation.
As the night drew on, with Gu Zixuan having been temporarily recruited, it felt like playing a round of mahjong while working vigorously, but also being unbearably sleepy.
Especially towards the end, Qin Nuo and Jiang Yuan were mostly doing the tables, she had little to do, just occasionally giving suggestions on how to improve the aesthetics, finally, the fatigue overcame her and she fell asleep.
As Gu Zixuan leaned against the edge of a soft white Mediterranean sofa and fell asleep, the voices of exchange in the room diminished.
Soon after, they died out completely.
Keen-eyed Qin Nuo glanced at Gu Zixuan, then at Feng Chengjin, finally nudging Jiang Yuan with her arm and whispering, "It’s very late, there’s not much left, Jiang Yuan and I will take it back to the room to finish, you should rest, the final document will be ready for you by morning."
Without lifting his eyes from the draft, Feng Chengjin gave a faint "hmm" in agreement.
Relieved to be allowed, Qin Nuo was content.
Pulling Jiang Yuan away, before leaving, Jiang Yuan looked around the room’s atmosphere, then at Gu Zixuan, a bit hesitant, but ultimately couldn’t resist Qin Nuo’s pull, and left quickly, closing the door behind her.
The room was quiet, only the sound of waves crashing onto the shore could be heard distantly, switching off the brightest lights, as he walked to the edge of the sofa.
Feng Chengjin stood with hands tucked in his pockets, gazing silently at her sleeping face.
After a while, glancing at the only large bed in the suite, his brows deepened momentarily, then he stepped forward, slipping a hand under her legs and neck, cradling her in his arms.
Gu Zixuan, approximately 167 cm tall, was quite tall, but still seemed like a child sleeping in his arms.
Laying her head on his chest, Gu Zixuan did not wake.
Gazing at the direction of the bed, without hesitation, Feng Chengjin carried her over.
...
That night, Gu Zixuan had a dream.
In the dream, she seemed to return to the time when she was blind, only eighteen and seeing nothing after a robbery, feeling an inexplicable fear whenever it was a cold, low-temperature night.
He Qimo came, with the scar on his arm from rescuing her.
She touched his hand and feeling the scar, her heart slowly settled.
"Why are you late, wouldn’t you plan on leaving me, and breaking up already?"
Just like all young girls, facing the man she liked, she had a bit of that coquettishness, and also the fear of losing first love.
He Qimo didn’t like her princess-like habits much, and though he never said it, his demeanor often showed a faint smile, she understood.
So, for him, she tried to restrain herself.
But that day, the long wait really made it hard for her to control.
Slightly pursing her lips.
Especially since recently He Qimo had been increasingly good to her, to the point she wondered if he was planning to break up due to guilt, as compensation.
But if it was truly from his heart, she would say she wanted to marry him no matter what.
He Qimo smiled, though faintly, she could hear it, as her heart gradually relaxed and she smiled too.
She sensed his approach.
He kissed her lips, gently and softly, like melting into the softest string of her heart.
He didn’t go deeper; if she remembered correctly, it was the only pure light kiss he had given her in those ten years.
He held her, his tall figure encircling her waist.
Lifting her to a height where she stood on her tiptoes.
As soft as a willow leaf lightly brushing the water surface.
Not sensual, yet inexplicably, she liked it immensely.
Her overwhelmed face flushed.
But what puzzled her and made her blush that night was why she dreamt of then.
Moreover, it seemed she once again felt that kiss.
So soft that even in her dream, her heartbeat was hot.
