However, he took a step back and bent down to hug her…

She bit her lips and tightened her grip on Lian Lili’s arm.

Lian Lili was in pain and frowned slightly. She watched as Li Tingshen carried Ye Qingqiu and walked in, eventually drowning in the crowd.

His frown deepened.

It wasn’t that she didn’t know that Tingshen had been close to Ye Qingqiu for the past two years. She had chosen to leave because she believed that with Tingshen’s personality, there was a small chance that he would be involved with a girl.

He was so smart that he hated the world. How could he be trapped by feelings?

Moreover, even a woman wouldn’t be as arrogant and pretentious as Ye Qingqiu.

After all, he was her son. How much patience could he have?

How much patience could he have with women?

He would have a woman, but in her imagination, his future wife would be like Xu’er, quietly and obediently staying by his side.

Because of her love for him, she listened to him obediently and stayed by his side carefully.

As for Ye Qingqiu, she wanted too much. The possessiveness she wanted was too strong.

Delicate, arrogant, arrogant…

If she was in a romance drama, she would be an arrogant and evil young lady. She would be unreasonable, domineering, and shameless…

His actions were not likable and he was an absolutely detestable villain.

Such a girl, such a bad girl, such a clingy girl…

Why would Tingshen get himself into such trouble?

She left because she wanted to leave everything to time. Time would slowly let Tingshen understand that a girl like Ye Qingqiu was not suitable for him at all.

But now, things seemed to have gone against her wishes.

No wonder Xu’er had repeatedly asked her to return.

That photo had indeed shocked her.

Pursing her lips, she turned to look at Liang Xuer, whose face was pale.

“Have you fought for it yourself?”

Liang Xuer paused and turned to look at her blankly.

“You haven’t even fought for it. Do you still expect others to throw themselves at you?”

Liang Xuer’s eyes flashed before she shook her head with a bitter smile.

He didn’t even give her the right to fight for him. What right did she have to fight for him?

Lian Lili pursed her lips and walked in.

“Actually, Ye Qingqiu has lived a better life than anyone else. She can see her own advantages and can make good use of them. Even if most people slander her behind her back, she has all the bad habits of a rich young lady. She’s someone who doesn’t deserve to be loved, but she has everything that others dream of…”

Perhaps it was Xu’er’s imagination, but she felt that the voice behind her was filled with sarcasm and coldness.

The two of them stepped in and Lian Lili smiled warmly.

Liang Xuer looked at her smiling face in a daze.

Lian Lili turned her head, the smile on her face gentle and harmless.

“Even she knows how to fight for it. Why are you hesitating?”

“But…” Liang Xuer held her arm as they blended into the crowd. “Brother Tingshen… probably won’t love me…”

Lian Lili suddenly laughed out loud. She stopped and turned to look at her. The smile on her face sent a chill down Liang Xuer’s spine.

“Love? Do you think Tingshen will love Ye Qingqiu? Or rather, will he love anyone?”

“…”

Lian Lili smiled and raised her hand to tuck her hair behind her ear. She stroked her head gently and said softly,

“Good child, it’s enough that you love him. To be able to be with the person you love, you’re a winner in life. You’ve obtained what you like and what you dream of. Aren’t you satisfied? You have to know how to be content. Don’t ask for too much.”

Liang Xuer was surprised, but she was more in agreement.

Indeed, it was good to be with the person she loved.

“You understand?” Lian Lili retracted her hand and asked her with a smile.

Liang Xuer nodded, but then she hesitated. “I don’t expect him to love me, but he hates me now…”

Fight for it?

Where to start.

Ye Jianyun walked out of the elevator, followed by a group of men in suits.

Seeing Lian Lili, he nodded at her.

Lian Lili looked at him and gave an ordinary smile.

Her gaze followed Ye Jianyun to the other side and her red lips parted. “There are too many types of feelings. Love isn’t the only way to be together.”

Liang Xuer frowned, her eyes filled with doubt. She was silent and deep in thought.

Even if it wasn’t love, they could still be together…

Li Tingshen carried Ye Qingqiu into the elevator. Ye Qingqiu wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in his embrace. The pain from her feet was very clear, and she couldn’t hide the happiness on her pale face.

“Where’s the room?”

The elevator quickly stopped on the third floor. Li Tingshen carried her out of the elevator and glanced at her.

“To the far right.”

Li Tingshen turned right.

Fortunately, apart from being spacious, Ye Qingqiu’s room was normal. Looking at the exterior of the villa, he wouldn’t be surprised even if Ye Jianyun had designed a princess house for her.

However, Ye Qingqiu didn’t have such exaggerated interests.

Li Tingshen bent down and placed her on the soft sofa. The lights in the room had already lit up.

Ye Qingqiu slid her arm off his shoulder and looked at Li Tingshen’s expensive suit. He bent down and squatted in front of her. His gentle and handsome face was right in front of her, making her feel a little dazed.

She couldn’t tell much from his expression, but she liked the way he half-knelt in front of her and helped her take off her shoes.

Although she didn’t express her emotions, she wasn’t a fool. It was a happy thing to read his worry for her.

The pampered missy had the right to be proud and confident.

Her feet were fair and beautiful. Even her toes were round and beautiful.

There was a faint red line on the back of her foot. It was caused by the edge of her high heels. When she turned her heel over, it was rubbed badly.

It was a little red and swollen.

Both feet were the same.

Li Tingshen frowned and glanced at her coldly.

Ye Qingqiu’s face was still a little pale, and the thin layer of sweat on her face had not subsided.

If this injury was inflicted on someone else, it might not be worth mentioning. It might hurt, but it wouldn’t feel like half of their blood had been drawn.

Seeing Li Tingshen’s unfriendly gaze, Ye Qingqiu pressed her lips and looked pitiful.

“It hurts.”

Li Tingshen pursed his lips and his gaze landed on her feet. His well-defined fingers brushed past the redness.

“My ankle is sore too.”

Ye Qingqiu lowered her voice, sounding aggrieved.

Li Tingshen was speechless.

“It’s all your fault. I already said I don’t want it…”

Li Tingshen’s hand paused before he grabbed her ankle and massaged it.

“What did you do earlier?”

Ye Qingqiu smiled and said, “You’re the only one. If it were Daddy, I wouldn’t have given him so much face.”

Although I’m feeling terrible now, I’m very happy. Li Tingshen, although you’ve made me suffer so much, if you give me a candy after this, I’ll be very happy. Of course, only you can. I don’t lack candy. Not all candy in this world is sweet.”

She had never lacked candy. She only cared about the candy Li Tingshen gave her.

She didn’t lack anything except for Li Tingshen.

After hearing Ye Qingqiu’s confession, Li Tingshen remained silent for a long time. He lowered his head and massaged her other foot.

“Put your feet on it.”

After a long while, he finally spoke.

Ye Qingqiu rubbed her butt against the sofa and placed her feet on it.

Li Tingshen stood up and knocked on the door.

He turned to open the door and came back with a medical kit.

He found some medicine to apply a thin layer of ointment and two band-aids.

Closing the medical kit, before Li Tingshen could move, Ye Qingqiu held his arm.

“Are you leaving?”

Li Tingshen sat beside her and looked up at her. “What else?”

“Didn’t you prepare any other gifts for me today?”

Li Tingshen pursed his lips as his gaze swept across her face, which was gradually turning red. “Didn’t you say that you’ve already received the best adult gift?”

“That’s what I wanted. It’s different from what you gave me.”

“No.”

Ye Qingqiu was stunned for a long time. She bit her lips and anger gradually appeared on her face.

She bit her lips and glared at him. “You came empty-handed to my coming-of-age ceremony… You really didn’t prepare a gift? You… Aren’t you embarrassed?”

Li Tingshen raised his eyebrows slightly. “The little princess of the Ye family doesn’t have anything she wants. What do you lack?”

Ye Qingqiu was really angry this time. Her chest swelled with anger. “If I don’t lack anything, will you never give me a gift for the rest of my life? I’ve already made it so obvious just now. Did you not hear me or not? I’m already 18 years old. My life is about to enter the next stage. It’s such an important day, but you didn’t express anything at all. Those people downstairs are still putting on airs. You… Uh…”

There was no romance at all. The more she spoke, the angrier she became.

Without any warning, the man pressed his lips against hers.

Her eyes widened as she stared at his face in confusion. Her thoughts were a little slow.

He kissed her forcefully and Ye Qingqiu’s waist gradually leaned back. In the end, she leaned against the back of the sofa.

Li Tingshen chased after her and pressed his hand on her waist. He held her and pressed her into the soft sofa.

The kiss was like a siege. Ye Qingqiu could only feel his scent and the faint fragrance of wine.

She gripped Li Tingshen’s suit nervously and looked up. Her lips had subconsciously parted slightly, allowing him to do whatever he wanted.

Their auras intertwined and became chaotic.

The rising temperature sprayed on her skin like a flame.

Ye Qingqiu had gone from being confused in the beginning to being confused now.

It was a long kiss.

Li Tingshen only let go of her when her breathing became shorter and her face turned red.

Ye Qingqiu leaned against the sofa, her hand still gripping his suit tightly. Her face was red as she took small breaths.

Her slightly parted red lips were much redder than before, and one could vaguely see the tip of her pink tongue.

Li Tingshen’s dark eyes turned to her.

Her dazed expression made her look rather stupid.

His lips curled as his fingers caressed her soft face. Finally, he cupped her chin and pressed his nose against hers.

His breath landed on her face and his voice was low and hoarse, like a murmur.

“Are you satisfied with this gift?”

Ye Qingqiu’s eyes flickered and she snapped back to reality.

“So… you planned to give me this gift from the start?”

Li Tingshen smiled and caressed her smooth skin. “No.”

Ye Qingqiu was a little disappointed, but her brows relaxed every two seconds.

“It’s barely satisfactory.”

Li Tingshen finally got an answer. His gaze swept across her face and his grip on her chin tightened.

“Don’t wear high heels again, okay?”

“Are you asking me? I can agree to it. Let’s see what you have to exchange for it.”

Li Tingshen narrowed his eyes and his gaze landed on her lips. He bent down and kissed her lips. It wasn’t a kiss, but two solid bites.

“You can continue, but don’t cry in front of me next time. I don’t have that much patience to waste on meaningless things with you. This time, it’s to teach you a lesson. Next time…”

Li Tingshen could easily see the slyness in Ye Qingqiu’s eyes. He smiled and said, “Don’t think of playing tricks. Next time… you might as well not have these feet.”

The light in Ye Qingqiu’s eyes dimmed.

Seeing her like this, Li Tingshen let go of her and stood up.

“Don’t appear in front of me before your leg is completely healed.”

With that, she left the room.

Her intentions were obvious. If she wanted to do the opposite, he naturally had ways to make her listen to him.

Ye Qingqiu didn’t take Li Tingshen’s threat to heart. He didn’t have the guts to cripple his legs.

Unexpectedly, he had a backup plan.

Not being allowed to appear in front of him was indeed enough to teach her a lesson.

The banquet downstairs was almost over.

Li Tingshen was surprised to see Lian Lili.

Lian Lili was chatting with Ye Jianyun when she saw him. She smiled at him as usual.

“Where did you go?”

Li Tingshen didn’t answer. His gaze swept past Liang Xuer, who was standing beside Lian Lili, and he retorted, “You didn’t inform me that you were coming back.”

“I know that you’re busy with your studies and taking care of the company. I feel that there’s no need to trouble you. With Xu’er accompanying me, I’m definitely more considerate than you.”

Li Tingshen glanced at Liang Xuer.

Liang Xuer instantly became nervous.

In front of Li Tingshen, she felt that he could see through everything.

It was a mistake to hide his aunt’s return.

Ye Jianyun stood at the side, his eyes deep and cold.

Lian Lili’s words were probably meant for Li Tingshen.

“Tingshen, how’s Qingqiu?”

“My heel is swollen and I’ve already applied medicine. I’ll be fine in a few days.”

Ye Jianyun nodded. “I was too anxious. It was clearly her most important coming-of-age ceremony, but she was injured.”

“Sorry, it’s my fault.”

Li Tingshen’s attitude made Ye Jianyun feel more at ease, but he also sighed softly. “Qingqiu is very afraid of pain.”

Li Tingshen thought of Ye Qingqiu’s pale and aggrieved face and pursed his lips.

“Yes.”

This simple word revealed Li Tingshen’s understanding of Ye Qingqiu.

He knew that Ye Qingqiu was afraid of pain.

“Since you’re Qingqiu’s boyfriend, I won’t allow you to get injured. Try your best to avoid minor injuries. Anyway, she’s very delicate. Take good care of her.”

Liang Xuer’s face paled when she heard Ye Jianyun’s words.

She looked at Li Tingshen in disbelief.

“Boyfriend?”
