Chapter 170
"what?"
He glanced at the old rooms around him: "We can't do it here for the first time. When this case is over, if you are willing... we can apply for vacation and go abroad. Plan A is to go to the Maldives. I have been there twice when I was a teenager. There is a very beautiful island with wooden houses with good privacy. There is a beach at the door and the sea is a dozen meters away. The water there is so clear that you can see the bottom, and there are many beautiful corals and fish. I will take you snorkeling then. If it is difficult to apply for going abroad, we will implement plan B and go to Sanya. The sea there is also good. The hotel has a private beach. We can lie there for a few whole days and play some exciting water sports. If we can't even apply for a vacation, then we will use plan C..." He coughed, probably because he felt that plan C was a bit embarrassing, and said: "Go to my house in Xingyue Bay. But I need to prepare and decorate it in advance. Anyway..."
He held her face in his hands: "I won't be casual, that would be disrespectful to you. I want to give you the most perfect experience."
He was really serious when he said these words. Although Li Qingyao laughed when he mentioned Plan A, he remained unmoved and finished his words in a serious manner. He also said such shocking words as "I want to give you the most perfect experience" with sincerity in his eyes, with a bit of stubbornness.
Now it was Li Qingyao's turn to be enlightened.
sense of ceremony.
The sense of ritual engraved into Chen Pu’s bones.
No wonder he forced himself to shut down today. Chen Xiaopu is always a man whose spiritual pursuits are higher than physical impulses. He has a seemingly innocent and inexplicably romantic personality. The rich young master has a common air, looks smart and cold, but actually has a pure idealism in his heart. Whether it is work or love.
Li Qingyao hugged his face, kissed him, and said, "Okay, I fully agree with your plan."
He smiled and explained, "So it's not that I can't, nor that I don't want to, you know?"
"I know."
Although they stopped halfway, tonight's intimacy went a step further than ever before, making both of them feel satisfied and happy.
Chen Pu asked, "I'm done packing, what do you want to eat tonight?"
Li Qingyao didn't like going out to eat at a restaurant. It took too much time to order the dishes and wait for them to be served before eating. Chen Pu was leaving early tomorrow morning, and she felt a little irritated when she thought about it. She didn't want to spend the remaining time eating.
"I want to eat noodles." She said, "It's the one downstairs."
"Okay." Chen Pu was fine with it. He recently recharged 1000 and received 200 as a gift. His current balance was 1247. He was even more satisfied with the noodle shop.
The two of them finished their dinner quickly, and then walked around for 40 minutes to digest the food, chatting and laughing along the way. Anyway, there was always something to talk about. When they returned downstairs again, it was almost 9 o'clock.
Li Qingyao: "Then I'll go up?" He looked at him.
Chen Pu was also reluctant to let her go, but he had to help his excellent girlfriend get promoted in the criminal police team. He squeezed her hand and said, "Come to my house tonight? I promise I won't do anything. Even if you put a knife to my neck, I won't do it. This doesn't fit my plan. I just want to hold you in my arms as I sleep."
Li Qingyao glanced at him and said one word: "Okay."
Chen Pu smiled again. He was indeed Li Qingyao. As long as she wanted to do something, he would do it without hesitation. His heart was warm. He took out a single key from his pocket. He had put it in his pocket before going downstairs.
He handed the key to her: "I'll keep this key with you from now on, and you can open the door and come in later." Seeing that she didn't say anything, he immediately added a particularly strong reason for fear that she would not want it: "I estimate that I will not be at home for more than half a month, and you can help me look after the house."
Li Qingyao accepted it and said, "Okay."
"Come on, I'll take you upstairs."
"No need to send."
"Yes." He hugged the person.
Arriving at the door of Li Qingyao's house, she glanced at him pretentiously and said, "I won't invite you in for coffee."
"It's not good to drink coffee at night." He said slowly, "I'll make a cup of chrysanthemum tea and wait for you at home."
"Then you still won't leave?"
Chen Pu tilted his head and smiled, holding the door with one hand, and played with the handle a few more times: "Are you going to give me something too?"
Li Qingyao was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
I'm waiting for her here.
She was a little amused: "You are going to Jiangxi Province, why do you want my house key? You might lose it later."
"How could I lose something? I carry it in my wallet as a reminder."
Well, Li Qingyao understood. The sense of ritual, the damn sense of ritual. In this man's mind, exchanging keys might mean a closer relationship. "But you must get my consent before you can open my door." She trusted this man's character. After all, he could manually loosen the string even when the arrow was on the string.
"That's for sure."
Li Qingyao handed him a key. He held it in his palm and went downstairs with a happy look on his face.
After taking a shower, Li Qingyao, still wearing his conservative home clothes, went to Chen Pu's house, knocked on the door twice, and opened it with the key.
Chen Pu had finished his shower long ago, and changed into the formal pajamas he wore last time he went to her house, and sat on the bed. Li Qingyao wanted to laugh again when he saw this.
"Go to sleep," he said. "I've been too tired lately."
"Ah."
He lay down first, lifted a corner of the quilt and put it on his stomach, looking like he was sleeping properly. Li Qingyao glanced at the bed. He might really like gray. The whole set of sheets, quilt covers and pillowcases were all different shades of gray. But today, there was an extra pillow on the bed.
She also lay down, put the thermos cup she brought on the bedside table, and covered herself tightly with the quilt: "Turn off the lights."
Chen Pu pressed the bedside switch.
The curtains were drawn tightly, and the room was dark. The only sound they could hear was their breathing.
They were both silent, but the silence lasted less than 2 minutes. Chen Pu moved.
He turned around, pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly, letting her head rest on his arm, his chest against her back, fitting them tightly together again, with his head resting against her neck.
"What are you doing?" Li Qingyao was waiting for this moment. "Wouldn't you touch me even if the knife was on your neck?"
"Don't misinterpret my meaning. I would not do anything about the Maldives even if a knife was put to my neck. I said I wanted to hold you while I slept."
"Hmph." But Li Qingyao also felt that it felt good to be hugged like this, so she kept silent.
Chen Pu was also afraid that he couldn't bear it, so he stopped kissing her and just held her still.
But after a while...
"Chen Pu."
"Ok?"
"You can get hard for so long just by holding me?"
He doesn't speak.
"As expected of a 29 and a half year old virgin."
In the darkness, he held her hand tightly.
-
Because he went to bed early last night, his biological clock woke Chen Pu up just after 6 a.m. the next morning. He looked at the person in his arms, maintaining his posture, motionless.
After a few minutes, Li Qingyao rubbed his eyes and woke up. Before he was fully awake, Chen Pu held his hand in his palm and asked, "Does your hand still feel sore?"
Li Qingyao rolled his eyes at him.
He smiled and kissed her forehead. He had said it last night when he was trembling all over, and he said it again this morning: "Thank you."
However, the two most diligent workaholics did not want to get up at this time, because once they got up, they would have a lot of things to do, and after they were done, Chen Pu would leave.
After being so close for a while, Chen Pu finally put his head against her forehead and said, "You always make requests, so this time I'll make a few too - first, think of me every day; second, don't just focus on work, stay up less late, and take care of your body. Third, ignore those idiots in the team who want to chase you; fourth, as long as you don't hand in your phone, I will video call you every night after I'm done with work. If you do hand in your phone, you send me text messages, at least one a day. I'll save them and read them when I get my phone."
Li Qingyao: Wait, why are Plan A and Plan B both at the seaside?
Chen Pu: Ahem…
