161: Chapter 161 I was too hasty

The influence of one's family of origin is immense.

From a young age, Ye Qingqing grew up in an environment lacking love.

She had relationships as an adult, but they were with a scumbag; in her previous life, she even died tragically because of such a man.

Thus, the shield Ye Qingqing built around herself was extremely thick.

This led her to distrust people and be unwilling to trust them.

Even though Ye Qingqing already knew she liked Huo Sixian.

But it was merely liking.

Anything more, Ye Qingqing simply didn't dare to hope for.

Ye Qingqing also felt she was terribly conflicted.

Often, she even wanted to ask herself: what exactly was she afraid of?

Was it that Huo Sixian hadn't given enough?

Or was it that all this time, Huo Sixian's excessive favoritism towards her was precisely what caused her to retreat?

Ye Qingqing still couldn't figure out these questions.

After staring at Ye Qingqing for a long while, Huo Sixian suddenly released her hand.

Ye Qingqing felt the force restraining her hand vanish.

For a moment, her heart felt somewhat panicked.

A self-mocking smile tugged at the corner of Huo Sixian's mouth.

"Ye Qingqing, you're such a coward."

After saying this, Huo Sixian left.

After Huo Sixian left, Ye Qingqing squatted on the ground as if she had suddenly lost all strength.

Her mind went completely blank.

For some reason, watching Huo Sixian's departing back, Ye Qingqing felt a sharp pain in her heart.

A suffocating pain.

As if she had lost something very important.

It was as if some great strength suddenly surged into Ye Qingqing's legs.

Her whole body felt light and floaty.

The moment she stood up, she immediately rushed forward and wrapped her arms around Huo Sixian's waist.

Ye Qingqing's face pressed tightly against Huo Sixian's back.

Ye Qingqing felt her heart beating very fast.

At the same time, she also heard the powerful beating of Huo Sixian's heart.

Originally, Huo Sixian thought Ye Qingqing had simply rejected him like that.

It would be a lie to say he wasn't disheartened; in fact, Huo Sixian had even prepared himself to sever all ties of affection.

A grand drama of separation played out in his heart.

But after Ye Qingqing crooked a finger at him, Huo Sixian could no longer control himself.

His large hand gently covered Ye Qingqing's hand.

Feeling the softness of her touch.

But the voice that came from his mouth was icy cold.

"Ye Qingqing, what do you mean by this?"

"Do you really think I'm a dog you keep?"

"You give me a sweet date when you're in a good mood, but start panicking the moment I resist?"

"Ye Qingqing, I'm human too. I get tired too."

Although Huo Sixian said this, his heart was desperately beating a retreat.

But Huo Sixian also needed affirmation.

Ye Qingqing's attitude towards him felt too erratic.

Like an elusive wind, Huo Sixian felt completely at her mercy.

Huo Sixian was also afraid, afraid that Ye Qingqing would be like the day she first woke up in the hospital room.

That day, Ye Qingqing clearly seemed to like him.

But then she turned around and denied it.

Even just moments ago, it seemed like Ye Qingqing had rejected him.

So Huo Sixian had no idea what Ye Qingqing was thinking.

Ye Qingqing was too inscrutable.

"Huo Sixian."

Ye Qingqing spoke softly.

Huo Sixian remained silent, waiting for her to continue.

Waiting for Ye Qingqing to give him a definitive answer.

"I'm willing."

Upon hearing Ye Qingqing's words, Huo Sixian felt as if an arrow had struck his heart.

Even his breathing grew heavier.

He could no longer restrain his emotions.

In the next instant, Huo Sixian took Ye Qingqing and flashed into her space.

By the time Ye Qingqing felt the surrounding temperature suddenly become comfortable, her mind hadn't even had time to react.

The hands holding Huo Sixian were gently pushed aside by a soft force.

As her body was lifted into the air, Ye Qingqing found herself entirely in Huo Sixian's embrace.

Huo Sixian carried Ye Qingqing in a princess carry into the Villa within the space.

When Ye Qingqing's body was tossed into the bathtub by Huo Sixian,

She finally managed to voice a question: "Why can you enter my space?"

But the response to Ye Qingqing was Huo Sixian's domineering and forceful kiss.

Huo Sixian stepped in with one long leg, entering the bathtub with Ye Qingqing.

Warm water washed over their bodies.

Ye Qingqing's body grew weak from the kiss.

Her mind couldn't handle the overload of pheromones and simply shut down.

She was completely led along by Huo Sixian.

...Break...

(The process was too intense, so it's directly omitted. The author believes you all don't particularly love reading this part either...)

...Break...

When Ye Qingqing opened her eyes again, she was in Huo Sixian's arms.

The first thing she saw was Huo Sixian's dazzling muscles.

Suddenly, Ye Qingqing's ears turned red.

She immediately hid and pretended to be asleep.

But a deep, muffled voice came from above her head.

"Awake?"

Ye Qingqing played the ostrich again, neither speaking nor daring to move.

But powerful heartbeats once again sounded from her chest.

Ye Qingqing felt the hand resting on her waist growing increasingly hot.

Gradually, it began wandering to every corner of her body.

"Enough!" Unable to bear Huo Sixian's teasing, Ye Qingqing spoke in a fluster.

But the moment she spoke, Ye Qingqing realized her voice was pitifully hoarse.

And pitifully dry.

Seeing Ye Qingqing's reddened eyes glaring at him, Huo Sixian's breathing grew increasingly rapid.

But he also knew he couldn't go any further...

He simply sat up straight in bed.

Handed a bottle of water to Ye Qingqing.

At this moment, Ye Qingqing just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

She had too many 'whys' in her heart.

How could a decent person take someone to bed right after confirming a relationship!

Ye Qingqing really wanted to turn back time!

If only she hadn't agreed to Huo Sixian!

But now it was too late for regrets.

Looking at the small hillock-shaped lump under the covers, Huo Sixian let out a chuckle.

But soon, he couldn't laugh anymore.

Because he met Ye Qingqing's gaze, filled with anger.

As a man, Huo Sixian naturally knew when to bend and when to stand firm.

He bent his knees very naturally.

Directly knelt on the bed.

Bare-chested, putting on the full appearance of someone who had been wronged.

"Qingqing, it's all my fault. I was too impatient!"

Ye Qingqing widened her eyes, looking at Huo Sixian, feeling only the violent rise and fall of her chest.

She really wanted to pry open Huo Sixian's head to see what was inside.

"First, why can you enter my space?"

Ye Qingqing took a deep breath, simply skipping over that topic. It takes two to tango; when it came down to it, she was at fault too.

Huo Sixian still wore the expression of a wronged little wife on his face.

But hearing Ye Qingqing say this, his body very consciously shifted closer to her direction.
