Chapter 1084 - 1080: Kiss (1)
An Ran clung to his arm, her cheeks flushed red, eyes tightly shut as she called out, "Brother...""Hmm."
She called out several times, but each time she only called him brother and then said nothing more.
Yet every time, Chi Cheng patiently responded to her.
They returned to the Chi Mansion.
The days An’s mother was in the hospital, Chi’s father stayed with her consistently.
In the spacious mansion, there were only Chi Cheng and An Ran.
After parking the car, Chi Cheng carried An Ran in his arms to her bedroom.
Placing the young girl onto the bed, his movements were unconsciously gentle.
Just as he was about to get up, a pair of small hands grabbed his sleeve.
An Ran looked at him through her drunken haze, under the influence of alcohol, finally expressing her grievances, "Brother, did you know? I know I really hate you..."
Chi Cheng’s eyes were deep and glistening, his thin lips gradually pressing together.
"I hate you... How you’re an absolute Demon, a big liar who pretends not to like me, who is only with me to get back at my mom..." An Ran’s voice grew softer, she hiccuped in her grievance, "You’re so bad, but I can’t be as carefree as you..."
His feelings towards her were all an act.
But An Ran’s were genuine.
"You’ve drunk too much today." Chi Cheng gently rubbed An Ran’s head, "Lie down, I’ll get you a glass of water."
An Ran was already drunk, yet she continued clutching his sleeve, speaking to herself, "Why do you have to be so cruel? Clearly, you’re by my side, clearly it feels like before, but I know we can’t go back..."
Chi Cheng’s back stiffened, his voice hoarse, "An Ran."
"Hmm, hmm, I know." An Ran nodded, reaching out to wrap her arms around his neck, "I know what you’re going to say, let me hug you like before one last time."
She drank too much, completely unaware of what she was doing.
But Chi Cheng hadn’t drunk, he was clear-minded about what he should do.
He should push her away.
Yet Chi Cheng remained motionless, allowing An Ran’s soft, bunny-like body to cling to him.
A short yet beautiful dependency on him.
Chi Cheng lowered his head, seeing An Ran with her eyes closed, in a state between awake and asleep.
Her tempting pink lips slightly parted, with every breath, her exhalation lightly spread across his chest.
The shirt still separating them, yet it felt scorching, like it burned into his heart.
At this moment, like possessed, he wanted to lower his head and kiss her.
[I only kiss the woman I like]
This was what Chi Cheng had said to An Ran that morning.
Chi Cheng moved his gaze away from her lips, slightly closed his eyes.
In his mind, the letter left by Chi’s mother before her suicide resurfaced.
In the letter, Chi’s mother instructed Chi Cheng that someday he must demand back the pain she suffered, a thousandfold, from the An mother-daughter.
Otherwise, Chi’s mother would never rest in peace.
This was her last wish before she passed.
Demand it back a thousandfold.
Demand it back.
Chi Cheng opened his eyes, seemingly regaining some calm.
But just then, An Ran sleepily raised her face, "Brother, I’m so hot."
