As she gazed seriously at him, she repeated word for word, "I won't leave."
In that moment, his dark eyes seemed to suddenly light up with countless stars, an overwhelming joy surging within him.
He quickly walked in front of her, slowly bent down, and locked eyes with her. "Say it again."
His exquisite and handsome face was so close that she could feel the warmth of his breath with each inhale and exhale.
Shu Ran's heart raced fiercely; she bit her lip tightly in an attempt to ease her nervousness and said with a trembling voice, "I said, I won't leave."
As soon as the words left her lips, Qin Xian suddenly scooped her up around the waist, ignoring her panicked expression, and forcefully walked straight toward the door.
Shu Ran felt a sense of confusion, not understanding his intentions. She could only grip his sleeve tightly while softly calling out, "Qin Xian, put me down."
"I won't." Qin Xian replied with a smile on his lips, responding to her with enthusiasm.
He had waited for more than half a month for her call, for her to stop making a fuss, for her to stop avoiding him.
How could he let go?
Never.
He held her tightly, disregarding the gazes of those around them, stepping forward until they stopped in front of a silver Mercedes. He opened the car door and carefully placed her in the passenger seat before circling around to get in on the other side.
Once inside the car, he eagerly leaned closer to her, inhaling the fresh and gentle scent that surrounded her, losing some of his rationality.
Little by little, the distance between them closed. Before Shu Ran could resist, his warm lips came crashing down on hers—kissing gently at first but gradually deepening into something more intense and tender, utterly seductive.
He was a master of romance, leading her step by step into the abyss of desire.
His deep and heated breaths in her ear made her blush. No matter how composed she was, encountering someone like him inevitably caused her to lose her rationality for a moment, enchanted by him.
But it was only for a moment; she ultimately remained clear-headed, unable to adapt physically and mentally. She gently pushed him away and softly said, "Qin Xian, don't do this. I don't like it."
Her eyes held a gentle gaze as she quietly looked at him. With each glance, it was as if the gentle depths of the sea extinguished the fiery desire in his eyes bit by bit.
Qin Xian, deeply entranced by her tender gaze, finally withdrew.
Shu Ran quietly sighed in relief; to be honest, she still felt fear when facing Qin Xian.
Because he was too unpredictable, and she couldn't understand him at all.
Let alone where to begin to understand him.
But since she had already made her decision, she would not waver from it, nor would there be an opportunity to turn back.
When in Rome, do as the Romans do; this was what Zhou Jiajia had taught her.
Thinking of Zhou Jiajia reminded her that there were still important matters left unresolved.
"Qin Xian, Zhou Jiajia and the others..."
"Okay." Before she could finish speaking, he had already agreed.
Shu Ran felt a bit frustrated.
Clearly, just a moment ago, he had an attitude of wanting to bring them down, yet in the blink of an eye, he easily agreed.
Shu Ran silently sighed in her heart.
A man's heart is as elusive as a needle in the ocean.
"Are you wondering how Qin Xian can be so unpredictable?"
"Mm." Shu Ran instinctively nodded.
However, half a second later, Shu Ran suddenly snapped back to reality.
She blinked and stared blankly at the person in front of her who was playing tricks on her, smiling at her with a mix of righteousness and wickedness, his eyes filled with profound emotions.
Suddenly, she felt a bit helpless; she seemed to remember that he really disliked others speaking ill of him behind his back.
She could only pale and explain, "That's not what I meant."
"It's fine if you do."
Huh?
Shu Ran was a bit stunned.
"I never wanted to play by the rules with you."
His eyes sparkled, illuminating the night, inside this car, or perhaps, within her gaze.
Shu Ran was stunned for three full minutes, wondering how someone could so casually justify such unreasonable behavior.
It was truly... helpless.
Qin Xian raised his hand to grip the steering wheel. "Let's go eat."
As the car slowly started moving, Shu Ran suddenly remembered that she had been busy all day and hadn't had dinner yet.
She hadn't felt it until now, but at this moment, she truly felt hungry.
She nodded. "Okay."
...
After finishing dinner, it was already past ten at night. Shu Ran had a habit of going to bed by eleven, and after a long day of running around, she was feeling quite tired.
Once in the car, she gently rested her head against the window and slightly closed her eyes. Before long, she fell asleep, her shallow breathing filling the quiet car.
Qin Xian turned his head and discreetly observed her sleeping posture.
She leaned against the car window with her head tilted, her eyes peacefully closed. Her long eyelashes cast a delicate shadow like a small fan.
Her exquisite face showed a hint of fatigue, as if she were worn out.
Qin Xian pulled over to the side of the road, leaned back to grab a men's shirt from the back seat, and gently draped it over her.
He looked at her sleeping peacefully, finally leaning over and lightly kissing her forehead like a dragonfly touching the water.
Then, he slowly restarted the engine and continued driving.
Shu Ran seemed to have had a dream, and when it ended, she woke up.
Opening her eyes, she saw Qin Xian beside her reviewing documents, occasionally frowning.
Noticing her rubbing her eyes, he put away the documents. "Awake?"
"Mm." Shu Ran nodded and looked out the window, realizing that Qin Xian had already brought her to her doorstep.
"Then I'll head back now," she turned her head and said to him in a sleepy voice.
"Mm, here, this is for you."
Shu Ran looked at the white rectangular box in his hand and asked in confusion, "What is this?"
Qin Xian said nothing, just handed it to her.
Shu Ran took the box with curiosity and slowly opened it.
She lifted out the items inside one by one, skimming through them.
In the next moment, she was filled with surprise.
She exclaimed, "How did you know I love collecting newspapers from this city!"
Indeed, the items in the box are all the city newspapers from City X from the beginning of the year to September in the golden autumn.
Shu Ran has this hobby of collecting newspapers.
She is studying journalism, and in recent years, print media has fallen out of favor; it is mostly online media now.
However, Shu Ran remains stubbornly attached to print media, even specializing in this area. She has a passionate love for reading newspapers.
Especially urban newspapers.
Unfortunately, this hobby is not easy to maintain. She does not live in City X, and urban newspapers are only distributed there.
So she can only take some time each year to travel to City X and collect newspapers.
But this does not satisfy her hobby.
She has felt regret about this, but there is nothing she can do.
However, today, Qin Xian unexpectedly gave her such a gift. This gift is not expensive, but it is very precious to her.
It would be false to say she is not surprised; it would be false to say she is not moved.
