Chapter 1106 - 1114: Wherever You Are, I Am; Wherever I Am, There Is Love
Qi Jingren picked up a piece of steak with his fork. Just as he was about to put it into his mouth, he noticed that the steak was heart-shaped, and the other pieces left on the plate were also heart-shaped, cut by Qin Shaobai just now.
"Aren’t you hungry?" Qin Shaobai smiled gently, his eyes filled with affection. "Eat up."
"Qin Shaobai, this trick must be your flirting skill," Qi Jingren said, holding the fork to his mouth. "You eat first."
"Alright." Qin Shaobai promptly bit the steak off the fork, chewed a few times, and swallowed. He looked at Qi Jingren with a playful, wicked smile. "This is our second kiss."
Qi Jingren understood what he meant. Previously, when she had her brother arrange for someone to pick her up back to the President’s Mansion, Qin Shaobai was smoking. She took the cigarette from his hand and took a puff. By those calculations, if someone doesn’t mind touching another person’s saliva, it could count as a kiss. So that was the first time.
The second time was now, only this time, unlike before, she was passive, and Qin Shaobai was proactive.
After eating the steak, Qin Shaobai picked up another fork from the side, personally forked a piece, and offered it to Qi Jingren’s mouth. He looked at her sideways, his gaze so tender it seemed to melt a person like water.
Qi Jingren stared back at him for a few seconds, suddenly put down her fork, and smoothly snatched the fork from Qin Shaobai’s hand. Just as he was puzzled by her actions, she stood up and hugged him.
The smile on Qin Shaobai’s face faded a little, probably because of her unexpected action. After about five seconds, he gently pushed her away, held her shoulders, and looked deeply into her eyes. "Qi Jingren, do you know what you’re doing?"
Qi Jingren looked up at him, asked lightly, "Qin Shaobai, do you still want to be with me?"
What seemed like an irrelevant statement was actually a response. It’s rare for Qin Shaobai to be so slow on the uptake. It took him a full half minute of looking into Qi Jingren’s eyes to realize.
"You agreed to be with me?" He tightened his grip on Qi Jingren’s shoulders, his hands shaking slightly with excitement.
"With your intelligence, can’t you figure it out on your own?" Qi Jingren said.
As soon as she spoke, Qin Shaobai pulled her tightly into his arms. He embraced her tightly, as if wanting to fuse her into his very being, never to be apart again.
As she held him, Qi Jingren smiled. It was at this moment she realized this was the love she had been searching for.
"Qi Jingren, you are mine now."
Qin Shaobai whispered in her ear. His voice was slightly hoarse, yet as magnetic and stirring as ever.
"Whether I’m yours or not depends on your performance." Qi Jingren replied, "If you don’t perform well, you might get kicked out at any time."
"There’s no chance of that." Qin Shaobai hugged her even tighter, resting his chin on her shoulder. "Do you know what a plaster is? It’s something that sticks to you and won’t let go."
Qi Jingren suddenly realized, "Oh, so you’re the plaster."
Qin Shaobai smiled, "There’s nothing wrong with being your plaster. Remember, Qi Jingren, in this life, the next, forever and ever, you can never escape from me. From now on, where you are, there I will be. Where I am, there is love. No matter what challenges come our way, I’ll be by your side, so don’t be afraid."
