After a storm, Lin Zhiyi felt that he was almost tormented to death by him. His whole body was soft and more like mud, and he didn't want to move at all.
Xiao Ci acted as if nothing was wrong and filled the bathtub with water before carrying her in.
Her aching limbs were wrapped in warmth, and she finally felt a little relieved, but she still didn't want to move, and was even very sleepy.
Lin Zhiyi couldn't help but began to wonder if he had been tormenting him all night last night.
Drowsily, she felt Xiao Ci entering the bathtub. When she opened her eyes, the man's body was already pressed against hers.
"What are you doing?" Lin Zhiyi immediately became nervous.
"Seeing that you are too tired, I will help you wash it." The man's hand stretched out in front of her.
"You're crazy, get out!" Believe him or not.
Lin Zhiyi really wanted to kill him, but she didn't have the strength.
Anyway, when the two of them came out of the bathroom, it was Xiao Ci who carried her out. After putting her on the bed, Lin Zhiyi was so angry that she covered her head with a quilt.
Satisfied, Xiao resigned and made breakfast. He didn't respond when he called her. He opened the quilt and saw that he had fallen asleep again.
There is a faint blue color under my eyes, which means I am really tired.
In fact, he doesn't know what's wrong with him. It's like he's addicted. He can't control himself, but mostly he doesn't want to.
Is it really true that you know the taste by eating the marrow?
He kissed her forehead tenderly and then left.
Lin Zhiyi took a nap and woke up at noon.
"Are you awake?" Xiao Ci was leaning on the bedside and busy working with a notebook. He turned his eyes inadvertently and saw that she had opened her eyes.
Lin Zhiyi was annoyed when she saw him now, especially when she was so tired and yet he was still so energetic.
It's no use being handsome, I just want to kick him.
Naturally, he didn't kick her, but instead he grabbed her ankle.
"You are so resentful that I didn't serve you well?" Xiao Ci asked, stroking her feet.
Lin Zhiyi twitched but didn't pull back: "Xiao Ci, I'm really angry!"
Xiao Ci raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't understand why she was angry.
"Can you let me go temporarily?" If this continues, she will die in bed sooner or later.
"So, you were just trying to be fresh at first, but now you start to dislike me?" Xiao Ci asked.
Lin Zhiyi was stunned for a moment, not knowing where to start from.
Xiao Ci obediently let go of her foot, his expression downcast.
"How dare I? You are younger than me and have better physical strength. My old bones can't handle it. I'm just afraid that you...let me rest." Lin Zhiyi quickly coaxed you.
"Really?" Xiao Ci looked unbelieving.
"Really." Lin Zhiyi almost raised her hands and swore.
"Okay, let's take a rest." He put the notebook on the bedside and hugged her into his arms.
It wasn't until Lin Zhiyi's body was wrapped in warmth that she finally realized: "Xiao Ci, are you setting a trap on me again?"
"No." Xiao Ci denied.
"I'm so tired, can you feel sorry for me?" He was really terrible.
"Okay, control yourself from now on." He coaxed and kissed her hair, but Lin Zhiyi avoided her.
She really looks like a warrior.
Only then did Xiao Ci realize that he might have gone too far, so he took her out directly, put her on a chair, and said, "Come, let's eat first."
The meal was prepared early and kept warm.
Lin Zhiyi picked up the crystal dumpling and took a bite, finally showing a satisfied expression on her face.
"Don't drink so much in the future. What if something happens?" Xiao Ci couldn't help but warn him.
"I called the driver at home and everything will be fine," Lin Zhiyi said.
"What if the driver can't come?" Seeing her attitude, Xiao Ci couldn't help but emphasize.
"If he couldn't come, he would call my brother." The support of her family still gave her a great sense of security.
"Why didn't you call me?" Xiao Ci was really annoyed that she trusted Lin Zhiyan so much.
"Didn't you just go to work?" She didn't want to delay his career.
Xiao Ci wanted to say something, but in the end he held it back and said domineeringly: "Anyway, drink less in the future, and it's best not to drink at all."
"Brother, you have just started working, and you will understand later." Lin Zhiyi only felt that a young man who had just entered society did not understand himself at all.
"Don't call me brother." Xiao Ci frowned.
He wants to be a strong man in front of her, but obviously the initial impression has been formed and is not easy to reverse.
"What's that called?" He was younger than her.
Xiao Ci wanted to call her husband, but didn't say it. He raised his eyebrows: "What do you think?"
Lin Zhiyi blushed and said nothing.
After dinner, Lin Zhiyi's legs were still shaking when she walked, so she didn't go to work until the afternoon.
Although Lu Xining had his own concerns, he still noticed that she had been sitting on the chair without moving, and was rubbing her waist from time to time.
"What's wrong?" Lu Xining poured her a cup of hot water and asked with concern.
"No." Lin Zhiyi denied.
Lu Xining glanced at her suspiciously and teased: "Is it because the battle was too intense last night?"
Lin Zhiyi felt even more guilty after hearing this.
She specially wore a high-necked dress today, otherwise she would have been laughed at by the entire studio.
"Since there are no emotional problems, why do you look listless?" Lu Xining asked again.
Lin Zhiyi looked outside and saw that no one was paying attention, so she simply lay down on the ground and said tiredly: "I feel like my body has been hollowed out and squeezed dry. Let me try it on you instead."
In the past, when I read novels, I would look at this kind of male protagonist with a look of infatuation and think that the female protagonist is very happy, but now I don’t think so.
Lu Xining touched his nose and said nothing.
Lin Zhiyi immediately realized what he was talking about and joked back: "It seems you have more experience than me."
"Stop talking nonsense and get to work quickly." Lu Xining stood up.
"Hey, didn't you take the initiative to come to talk to me?" Lin Zhiyi shouted.
Lu Xining made sure that she was fine and ignored her at all.
——Divider line——
Xiao Ci sent Lin Zhiyi downstairs to the studio and drove her car back to the company.
"Mr. Xiao."
"Mr. Xiao."
Amidst the greetings, Xiao Ci came to his temporary office.
Li Shuhuai had already followed, called Mr. Xiao, and handed all the information in his hand to Xiao Ci.
There are several lists in the front, including their identities and backgrounds, and there is a USB flash drive in the back, which is the footage from the lobby surveillance of Lin Zhiyi having dinner in the hotel last night.
When they first entered the private room, the group of people looked fine, but when they came out after drinking, the Lin family's driver was clearly here, and there was a man with his arm around Lin Zhiyi's waist.
Xiao Ci stared at the hand and asked Li Shuhuai: "Who is this person?"
"A little person." Li Shuhuai replied.
What made him nervous was the hostility on Xiao Ci's body, just like he could feel it several kilometers away during the phone call yesterday.
"Teach him a lesson." Xiao Ci ordered.
"Yes." Li Shuhuai responded and left.
But when he reached the door, he stopped hesitantly and turned to look at Xiao Ci, who was still frowning at the video.
"Is there anything else?" Xiao Ci asked after noticing.
"Mr. Xiao, our netting is almost done. What do you and Miss Lin plan to do with it?"
