Flash Marriage, Deep Love-Chapter 149: It Really Has to Be You (2)

The night was quiet and beautiful. Just as Chu Chen and Mi Jing were stuck on the highway, Ji Dongquan brought Mi Wan back to his house. Seeing his boss bringing a woman home for the first time, the bodyguards showed no sign of surprise because, like He Zerui, they all knew that Ji Dongquan had secretly protected this woman for many years. With Ji Dongquan’s outstanding charm and strong background, bringing her home was only a matter of time.

In the large hall on the first floor, He Zerui was playing a game. Seeing Ji Dongquan carrying Mi Wan in, he immediately paused his actions, turned his head, and then slowly put down the game controller, asking, "Mr. Ji, what happened to Wanwan?"

"She’s drunk," Ji Dongquan replied casually while continuing to walk.

"Oh." He Zerui’s tone rose with a thick sense of amusement as he continued, "An hour of spring night is worth a thousand gold, Mr. Ji. Enjoy!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Dongquan immediately stopped in his tracks, lifted his eyes, and gave He Zerui a cold glance. However, He Zerui was not intimidated by his warning glare. Instead, he raised his thick eyebrows, and his eyes sparkled with playful ambiguity.

"Stop looking at those messy things on the internet!" A ten-year-old child actually knew the saying "An hour of spring night is worth a thousand gold"? Wasn’t that too precocious?

With a stern voice, Ji Dongquan took long strides while steadily carrying Mi Wan upstairs.

Watching Ji Dongquan’s figure disappear at the staircase corner, He Zerui smiled, feeling happy that Ji Dongquan had finally won the beauty’s heart.

Upstairs, Ji Dongquan carried Mi Wan into his bedroom, gently placed her on the big bed, then turned around and walked into the bathroom.

"Mm..."

The cold sensation on her forehead instinctively made Mi Wan, who was in a deep sleep, resist. She shook her head and made protesting whimpers, wanting to shake off the cold compress.

"Don’t move."

Ji Dongquan picked up the towel that had fallen beside the pillow, placed it back on Mi Wan’s forehead, and said in a deep voice.

"Mm... cold..."

Mi Wan slowly awakened, her consciousness still foggy, she softly expressed her feelings. Then, she raised her hand and grabbed the towel from her forehead.

"Wanwan, don’t move." Ji Dongquan helplessly took the towel from her hand, then washed it in the basin beside him, and gently wiped her face and neck.

"No, cold!" Mi Wan yelled in discontent this time.

Ji Dongquan frowned, looking deeply at her scrunched-up face, and said nothing more. He continued to wipe her face and neck without caring about her protests.

Annoying! I already said it’s cold!

Mi Wan opened her eyes with a look of dissatisfaction, biting her lip and turning her face to avoid the cold. But no matter which way she turned, she couldn’t escape the annoying cold sensation. So, she stopped avoiding and instead, when the hand holding the towel approached again, she grabbed it.

"Finally caught you!" Mi Wan lightly laughed in satisfaction. Then she raised her eyes and, in the dim shadows, saw a familiar yet somewhat blurry handsome face.

"Ji Dongquan?" Mi Wan mumbled, her expression somewhat dazed, her tone containing a hint of uncertainty. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"It’s me." As if afraid of scaring her, Ji Dongquan replied softly.

"Get lost!" Mi Wan’s face suddenly fell, and she angrily questioned, "Why didn’t you come back for me? Why didn’t you come back! Do you know I’ve been waiting for you to come back, but you? You got engaged to another woman, you bastard!"

"Yes, I’m a bastard for not coming back to you when I should have," Ji Dongquan didn’t mind Mi Wan cursing him; a touch of guilt appeared on his handsome face as he agreed.

"You hate me, right?" Mi Wan let go of Ji Dongquan’s hand holding the towel and then raised her hand to touch his face. Her intoxicated eyes misted over as she continued, "You must. You hate me for breaking up with you, you hate me for marrying Song Guotao, that’s why you never came back to find me."

"Fool, that’s all in the past. Don’t think about it anymore, don’t dwell on it," Ji Dongquan put the towel in the basin and then covered Mi Wan’s small hand on his face with one hand, gently caressing her delicate face with the other.

Indeed, he had once resented her, hated her. He resented her for easily giving up on their relationship and hated her for leaving him heartlessly. But when he learned about her marriage, the first thought that came to his mind was to find her and take her away from the wedding. However, an unexpected incident made him lose that chance, and she became someone else’s wife.

The past mistakes couldn’t be undone, but the future was in their hands.

"But it’s too late, too late..." Mi Wan’s eyes were misty, murmuring softly as if talking to herself rather than Ji Dongquan.

Though her voice was very low, Ji Dongquan understood what she said from her lip movements.

"It’s not too late. It’s just the right time. I’m back, and you’re divorced. Isn’t that right?" Ji Dongquan was very patient with the not fully conscious Mi Wan. As he spoke, he placed her hand on his chest and then lowered his head to kiss her forehead.

The warmth on her forehead reflexively made Mi Wan lift her hand to touch the kissed spot. Her eyes blurred even more, and she lightly shook her head. Then, she placed her hands on his chest and tried to push him away. But she had no strength, so Ji Dongquan remained unmoved.

Slowly, Mi Wan withdrew her hands and covered her face, speaking with a hint of grievance and sorrow, "I have already slept with another man. You must think I’m dirty, just like Song Guotao thought I was dirty."

Suddenly, Ji Dongquan’s heart sank. A trace of gloom flashed in his tea-colored eyes, but it was quickly replaced by overwhelming love and pity.

She was the woman he loved most in his life, the treasure he wanted to cherish and protect. How could he let others despise her?

Making a mental note, Ji Dongquan’s voice became even gentler, eager to dispel the sorrow in her heart, "Fool, I don’t mind. You’re still the beautiful Wanwan I love."

As Ji Dongquan’s voice fell, the room quieted down. Mi Wan’s eyes seemed shrouded in mist, her vision blurred, only seeing Ji Dongquan’s vague silhouette.

For a long while, Mi Wan didn’t say anything. Although she couldn’t see clearly, she stubbornly kept her eyes on Ji Dongquan, trying to see him more clearly.

"Really?" Mi Wan asked timidly. But just as she spoke, she denied it herself, saying, "No, you’re definitely lying to me. Maybe you’ll change your mind in the future... When you meet a better woman, you’ll certainly think I’m not worthy of you, and you’ll undoubtedly despise me."
