he second time, just last night, you used my relationship with Lu Kuo again to invite Shu and Tinglan for dinner tonight. 。"In order to get close to Shu Tinglan, you used me so obviously." "Nothing co...After much effort, the movers squeezed the sofa into the elevator, followed by its owner. 。Shu Tinglan and Zhuo Yu'an were squeezed into the corner of the elevator, pressed tightly against the elevator wall. 。The sofa successfully separated them from the outside workers, and inside, a hidden space was formed. 。It was too crowded. Shu Tinglan pressed her hands against the elevator wall, trying to create some distance between herself and Zhu Youan, but it was no use. The space was too small, and the two of them were pressed face-to-face, so close that they could smell each other's scent and even hear the increasingly rapid beating of each other's hearts, like a drum. 。Shu Tinglan was still wearing high heels today, so her face was right against Zhuo Yunan's shoulder. Well, that meant her breath fell directly on his neck. She had to turn her head to the side, but turning her head just made her gaze land on his jawline and Adam's apple. 。Shu Tinglan was actually very nervous. Her body was pressed too tightly, and even the slightest movement felt extra sensitive. In just a dozen seconds, it felt like several hours. 。

A sense of relief washed over her as she heard the familiar ding indicating her floor had arrived. 。However, the two of them were blocked inside the sofa, and the movers outside shouted at them: "Sorry, please continue upstairs with us for now, and come back down later." 。Because if they went out now, the workers would have to move the sofa out first to make way for them and then move it back in. Shu Tinglan didn't want to cause trouble for anyone, so she had no choice but to continue being trapped inside, riding the elevator upwards. 。They were practically glued together, Zhuo Yu'an's back pressed against the sofa. He couldn't take another step back. 。They were too familiar with each other, even after years apart. Every physical memory was still there. Under such circumstances, the intimacy of the past suddenly surged into their minds. 。Shutinglan only felt her face burning fiercely, especially when she saw his Adam's apple bob up and down imperceptibly. 。"Sorry, just hold on a little longer!" Zhu Yu'an's hoarse voice came. 。He tried his best to divert his attention, her scent on him was too familiar, mingled with a faint milky fragrance he hadn't noticed before. His mind was in turmoil, if not for the willpower holding him up, he probably wouldn't be able to act like a gentleman. 。I just want to lower my head and kiss her fiercely. At such a close distance, I could reach her with just a dip of my head. 。"Well," 。When she answered in a single word, she was surprised to find that her voice didn't sound like her own. 。It's so embarrassing, I'm blushing not just on my face, but even my ears are red. 。The elevator finally arrived, and the movers rushed out with the sofa, also apologizing to them. 。

The space opened up, and Zhuo Yu moved aside first, eager to create some distance between them. Although they were still standing side-by-side in the elevator, awkwardly trying to pretend they weren't noticing each other, both gazing at the numbers on the floor display. 。Not until the elevator's digital display reached the 1st floor did they realize that no one had pressed her apartment number when going down, so they ended up at the ground floor. 。As soon as the door opened, seven or eight people rushed in, one pushing a stroller. They complained as they entered: “Why is the elevator next to us broken again It's so slow!” 。The elevator instantly filled with people again. Zhuo Yu'an subconsciously turned around to shield Shu Tinglan from being jostled by the crowd. 。This time, the sofa was solid and immovable. People jostled each other constantly, their bodies bumping against one another from time to time. Shuting Lan, wearing high heels, fumbled and accidentally touched his waist with her hands for balance. 。As soon as her hand touched his waist, Zhuo Yu's body stiffened. His hands, which were propping him up against the elevator wall, tightened involuntarily. 。。As the elevator doors opened to her floor, she hurriedly stepped out, finally able to put some distance between herself and Zhuo Yunan. 。

"Listen to the waves" 。"A gravelly voice came from behind him." 。She turned around and fell into his arms. 。He was no longer suppressing himself, for he could not suppress it any longer. He trapped her in his embrace, one hand around her waist, the other controlling her head. He leaned down and kissed her fiercely, a kiss that felt more like biting. Impatient, he devoured her with the intensity of a long-suppressed desire. 。Like a raging storm, the assault left Shu Tinglan with nowhere to retreat, nowhere to escape. 。The more she dodged, the closer he pursued. 。airtight, to the point that she imagined biting him as viciously as last time, but there was no room 。He was suffocating her, but he didn't let go until she gasped for air. His hands, though, remained in the same position as before. 。He panted, his voice a low murmur: "Tinglan, do you still have feelings for me" 。He felt her recent tremor, even the suppressed longing he sensed within her. 。This isn't his delusion, nor is it a sixth sense, it's experience. 。They had once been so intimate, their bodies so perfectly matched. They had done countless things together. Even the smallest movement from the other person, even a disordered breath, he could tell what it meant. 。"Tinglan, why can't you come back You obviously still have feelings for me, don't you" He didn't care who she was with these past few years; all that mattered was that she came back. 。Shu Tinglan opened her eyes to look at him, so close that her mind slowly returned, and she cleared up, faintly smiling: “I have a feeling for people with good figures.” 。“This is a phrase I learned from Lin Zhixuan, and it's perfectly apt for this moment.” 。Zhuo Yunan tightened his grip on her waist. Shu Tinglan thought he would be angry, but to her surprise, he also smiled faintly:

"So, Tinglan, you're admitting that you still have feelings for me And admitting that I have a good figure"

He actually managed to twist the situation around. 。

The hallway sensor light extinguished just in time, plunging the two into darkness. Shu Tinglan was about to speak and turn on the sensor light when her voice faded away as it was swallowed by Zhuo Y uan's lips. 。He suddenly scooped her up and carried her toward her front door. When he got to the door and went to enter the code, he realized she had changed it. 。"Let me down first, I'll open the door." 。"Zhuo YUAN put her down. The moment she was away from him, she finally came to her senses completely. She punched in the password, and the door creaked open. She went inside first, blocking the doorway and refusing to let him in." 。

"Zhuo Yu'an, thank you for showing me how terrible of a woman I am."> 。"

Tinglan, no..."

Before he could finish, she slammed the door shut. 。

The house was dark, and she leaned against the door, unable to bring herself to step inside. She felt utterly wretched, a million times worse than her father had ever been. Was this the blood of her father that coursed through her veins Were they destined to be such deplorable creatures at their core For the first time, she loathed herself, even questioning if she was worthy of being a mother to her children. 。A message came from Zhuo Yuyan on his phone, saying: "Tinglan, I'm sorry. I lost control tonight, it was my fault. You're good, you've always been good." 。Also please face your own heart, I'm willing to wait for you, always. 。“It tastes better than what Mom makes. Mom only knows how to fry black, burnt scrambled eggs.” Shu Tinglan was so angry that she felt like her breath was stuck in her chest, especially when she heard...
