Chapter 129 My Heart Doesn't Hurt
Su Qiu carried Shen Yi and kicked open the bedroom door. When her gaze swept across the room, it landed on the large bouquet of red roses on the bedside table.
The petals were full and vibrant, like a ball of fire, almost taking up half the bed.
She raised an eyebrow and patted Shen Yi's bottom:
"Tsk, so romantic? Did they know what was going to happen and deliberately added some atmosphere?"
Shen Yi's cheeks flushed from her words, and he raised his hand to give her a hard punch on the back, his tone clearly tinged with arrogance:
"You shameless jerk! This...this is for you!"
Su Qiu chuckled softly, put him down, and casually moved the bouquet of roses to the bedside table, her fingertips brushing against the petals:
"I quite like it."
Shen Yi secretly glanced at her, and seeing the sincerity in her tone, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up, and his voice softened a little:
"I'm glad you like it."
Before the words had even finished, Su Qiu suddenly turned around and a warm kiss landed on her lips.
Shen Yi was taken aback at first, then, as if a fuse had been lit, he reached out and tightly wrapped his arms around her neck, responding passionately.
The longing I felt after not seeing him for several days entwined like vines, intertwining with my breath.
The air in the bedroom gradually warmed up, and even the fragrance of the bouquet of red roses took on a touch of tender warmth.
Su Qiu pushed Shen Yi down onto the bed. Shen Yi finally caught his breath and said, "Wait...wait a minute."
"Spit it out."
"Take a shower first."
"You dislike me?"
No...no.
"That's bullshit!"
……
Shen Yi's cheeks were so red they looked like they were about to bleed, his eyelashes were still damp, and his eyes were glazed over.
Just as she was recovering from her shock, she was dazzled by the pink diamond in Su Qiu's hand.
"I forgot to give you the pink diamond."
"you……"
Shen Yi was furious. Why did they have to bring it out at this time?
This is clearly a deliberate attempt to divert attention!
"Su Qiu, you're completely insane!" Shen Yi raised his hand to cover half his face, blushing deeply.
Su Qiu wasn't annoyed by the scolding; instead, she laughed even more cheekily and forcefully shoved the pink diamond into his hand.
"I already told you, don't reward me."
"You're sick!" Shen Yi cursed again, his ears turning even redder.
He turned to look at the pink diamond shimmering softly in his palm, and the anger in his heart suddenly dissipated.
Damn woman, I really want to beat her to death right now!
Seeing that he was clutching the pink diamond tightly, Su Qiu raised an eyebrow and said, "Don't drop it, or I'll become a big bad guy."
Shen Yi pouted and muttered softly, "Isn't that what it is now..."
Su Qiu didn't give him another chance to scold her.
Shen Yi's fingers curled up even tighter unconsciously, as if afraid that the shiny little thing would really slip through his fingers.
……
The following afternoon.
Warm sunlight streamed into the bedroom through the sheer curtains, casting dappled shadows on the floor.
Su Qiu had already woken up and was lying on her side watching Shen Yi sleep soundly.
Her long eyelashes cast a small shadow under her eyelids, and her nose twitched slightly, like a well-behaved cat.
She couldn't resist reaching out and gently touching his cheek with her fingertips; the soft touch made her chuckle softly.
"Tsk, so cute."
Seeing that Shen Yi hadn't woken up, she became even bolder, pinching his cheek with her fingertips and then gently tugging at it.
Feeling playful, I pinched his ear again and then continued to pull his cheeks.
They were having a great time, as if they were fiddling with some interesting toy.
In his sleep, Shen Yi vaguely felt a slight pain and itchiness on his cheek.
He frowned, slowly opened his eyes, and saw Su Qiu with her head down, her fingers still messing with his face.
"You stupid woman, are you crazy...?"
Shen Yi reached out and slapped her hand away. His voice, still hoarse from just waking up, sounded like sandpaper, with a hint of aggrieved nasal tone.
"It hurts!"
Su Qiu smiled and withdrew her hand, the warmth of his cheek still lingering on her fingertips:
"Where do you feel uncomfortable right now?"
Shen Yi snuggled closer to Su Qiu, finding a comfortable position to settle down, and said in a muffled voice:
"My butt hurts~"
"It's not good to act cute so early in the morning," Su Qiu said, raising an eyebrow with a teasing tone.
"My butt hurts, my back hurts, my legs hurt, my back hurts..."
Shen Yi counted on her fingers, her voice growing softer and softer, with a hint of coquetry in it.
Su Qiu raised an eyebrow: "Then where doesn't it hurt?"
"My heart doesn't hurt."
After Shen Yi finished speaking, he shrank shyly into her arms, his ears turning slightly red.
Su Qiu chuckled softly, reaching out to gently massage his lower back with just the right amount of pressure.
"I'll massage it for you."
The warmth of my palm seeped through the thin fabric, bringing a comforting warmth.
Shen Yi snuggled closer to Su Qiu, a smile he couldn't hide playing on his lips, his voice tinged with satisfaction:
"That's more like it."
The warm embrace was comforting, but the thought of parting made him wilted again, his voice muffled: "Um... when are you going back this time?"
Su Qiu was smoothing his hair when she heard this and paused, "That male and female leads, cough cough..."
Su Qiu quickly corrected herself: "Whether it's a man or a woman, we only went back after we got news of Lu Chen and Su Qian. They haven't found out anything yet, it might take a while."
Shen Yi's ears twitched; he sensed the ambiguity in her words, but he didn't call her out on it. Instead, he nodded vigorously, his eyes sparkling.
"Uh-huh!"
I can't let Su Qiu know that I know who she is or what her mission is.
If I were to say it, wouldn't it be like the awakening of a character in some novels?
But even knowing this, why hasn't Su Qiu left yet?
Is it because I haven't fully awakened yet?
Or does Su Qiu know, but simply doesn't want to leave?
He hoped it was the latter.
The disappointment in my heart dissipated slowly, like water being warmed.
As long as I can stay a little longer, that's fine; I don't want to think about anything else for now.
He snuggled closer to Su Qiu, the familiar scent filling his nostrils, and closed his eyes in comfort.
Little Xitian jumped around in Su Qiu's mind, his voice filled with anxious panic:
"Host! You almost gave yourself away! What if the villain sensed something was wrong and awakened his powers? That would make the mission a disaster!"
Su Qiu didn't even lift her eyelids, instinctively raising her hand to slap it, her voice tinged with impatience:
"What's the panic?"
"Have you forgotten?" she added slowly, "The characters we encounter are only truly awakened when their past life memories are fully awakened. Just knowing what the male and female leads are doesn't count."
Xiao Xitian covered his "face," pouting pitifully.
"But you can't hit me! I was just worried about the mission..."
Her voice still carried a hint of a sob, like a wronged little animal.
Su Qiu ignored it, continuing to gently massage Shen Yi's lower back with her fingertips, feeling the gradually relaxing breathing of the person in her arms, and only casually uttered a sentence in her mind:
"If you keep making noise, I'll throw you out to feed the dogs."
Xiao Xitian immediately fell silent, only daring to sob softly in the corner, no longer daring to make a sound.
While feeding the dog is impractical, hitting it is an easy thing to do.
