C76 (2/2)

It was fine if he didn't want to play, but if he did, he would definitely lose his life.

As he thought of this, Qin Junning shivered once again. 'Forget it, I don't want to be made a fool of by Zhong Guoqing in front of so many people!'

Zhong Yuqing slowly walked into the guest room and leaned against the door. She watched as the maid carried the drunk Tang Xiaoyi onto the bed.

When all the maids had left, he lit a cigarette and closed the door. He walked to the bed and said, ”No need to pretend. Everyone has left.”

Tang Xiao Yi's heart skipped a beat. How did he know that she was pretending?

”The aftereffects of the red wine are very slow. No one falls down right after drinking the wine. Your acting skills need to be tempered.” Zhong Yuqing said while puffing out a smoke ring. He stood still by the bed.

It was fine to deceive someone like Qin Junning, but it was impossible to deceive someone like him.

”Sorry …” I'm afraid to play that game... ” He had seen through Tang Xiao Ei's thoughts, so he could only open his eyes in embarrassment. She was indeed a bit drunk, but she was not unconscious yet.

”Why did you say you were sorry?” Zhong Yuqing looked at her with a smile.

”Because... ”I lied to you.” Tang Xiao Yi tightly grabbed onto the blanket as she spoke nervously.

Strangely, as long as she was alone in a sealed environment with him, she would feel as though she was facing a great enemy.

She was clearly an angelic man, yet she respected him. Why was she so nervous?

”Your chess skills are very good.” There seemed to be a trace of a smile in Zhong Yuqing's eyes. She was a pure and kind person, but a little stiff.

Transferring to a topic that made her uneasy was much easier for Tang Xiao Ei.

”Thank you.” Tang Xiao Ai also sat up, embarrassed to be lying on the bed.

”I didn't let you. Those last few moves were really amazing. They were something only top-tier pro players could do.” Zhong Yuqing didn't bother to hide his admiration.

He was also very attentive and found that she was sensitive to the smell of smoke. He immediately put out the cigarette he had just lit in the ashtray on the bedside.

”That's because I know what my next step will be, so …” It's not really a talent. It's just that the outsiders are a little surprised. ” Tang Xiaoyi was modest and prudent. She couldn't see through Zhong Yuqing at all. She didn't know what words he would say next.

”Have you recovered?” Zhong Yuqing asked gently, as he didn't want to talk too much about it.

”Much better... ”Hey, the scars have faded.” Tang Xiao Yi immediately rolled up her sleeves and showed him the scars on her arm. It was now a faint pinkish purple, and on her fair skin that was as white as jade, it was especially … It caused one's blood to fluctuate.

Perhaps when most men saw the jade-like skin covered with criss-crossing scars, they couldn't help but think of the many sexy scenes they saw.

Zhong Yuqing stretched out his hand and touched the wound on her arm with his slender fingers.

Tang Xiao Ei's body suddenly went numb. It was as if the spot his finger touched had a tiny electric current flowing through it, causing her to feel a kind of drunkenness.

Indeed, he drank too much … Perhaps it was because the alcohol had started to boil up, but Tang Xiao Yi did not stop. She only foolishly allowed him to stroke her arm.

Zhong Yuqing suddenly bent down. His thin lips had the smell of tobacco as it lightly fell on her wounds.

Only he knew clearly that these injuries weren't inflicted by Shen Mo, but rather, he had bestowed them upon Zhang Xuan.

If not for his anger that day, he would not have sent people to arrange for the media and Shen Mo to block the airport at the same time.

Zhong Yuqing knew that Shen Mo only needed to capture Tang Xiao Ai, and there would definitely be torture.

Not only was the psychological pain excruciating, it was also a physical collision. However, he hadn't expected it to be this severe.

Zhong Yuqing's psychology was simply too good. From Tang Xiaoshan's calm and rational personality, he knew that it was impossible for her to have ”run away” with Shen Mo. Although Shen Mo seemed mature, he had long been spoiled by the people around him.

Thus, the fight between the two would surely escalate to a very serious level. Zhong Yuqing was already prepared for Tang Xiaoyi's injuries to both her body and mind, but she didn't expect that Shen Mo would be so harsh on her, so how could Tang Xiaoyi know about this' secret '? She could only foolishly watch as Zhong Yuqing gently kissed her wounds.
