Chapter 131: 130: You are so delicate. Xu Zhen nodded in satisfaction, his gaze shifting to the man next to her. His expression suddenly grew a bit more serious: "Does Shi Beiming know about the girl’s existence?" The man leisurely picked up the glass, his deep black eyes slightly lowered, hidden beneath thick lashes, making it hard for anyone to discern his emotions: "No." Xu Zhen responded softly. He opened and closed his lips as if hesitating to speak, but with the young girl still present, he swallowed the words stuck in his throat. "Zhizhi, did you have fun tonight?" The man held onto her hand, strolling leisurely with her down the tree-lined path outside the Xu Family Villa. The sky had already darkened, and tiny stars surrounded a moon washed in pale silver, emitting a faint glow in its wake. Yu Zhi stared at the two shadows closely aligning on the ground, her lips gently curving upward, her eyes filled with delight: "I did. Grandpa Xu is very interesting." Originally, they planned to leave after dinner, but Xu Zhen insisted on playing two rounds of chess with the girl. The scene of a few men standing by advising strategies felt so heartwarming when she thought about it now. "Hmm, let’s come by often, then." Shi Wei gently squeezed her fingertips, his tone soft as ever, his expression growing increasingly tender. "Alright." The girl tilted her head and smiled up at him. Her radiant smile resembled sunlight, as if it could leap into the world, illuminating his life and spreading warmth through his entire being. The man paused his steps, suddenly pulling the girl into his embrace, his large hands firmly gripping her waist. "Zhizhi." He bent down slightly, rubbing his nose against her cheek. The upward tilt in his peach blossom eyes shimmered with subtle light: "When you graduate, let’s get married, okay?" The young girl was nearly nineteen now. After her graduation next year, she would reach the legal age for marriage. "Married?" Yu Zhi raised her brows, surprised at his sudden mention of this. But to the man, her reaction carried an entirely different meaning. The light in Shi Wei’s eyes dimmed bit by bit. He buried his face in the girl’s neck, inhaling her scent deeply: "You don’t want to?" His voice, hoarse as he spoke, trembled slightly, seemingly suppressing the brewing fury within him that threatened to consume him. "No, it’s not that." Yu Zhi pressed her lips together, her cheeks involuntarily flushed with a faint rosy hue. She clutched the man’s collar and muttered softly, "You need to propose first." In Korean dramas, the male leads always propose first. How could he skip such a step and directly talk about marriage? Shi Wei froze, taking several seconds to recover from the overwhelming joy that suddenly washed over him. He tightened his hold on the girl’s waist, lifting her gently. As she instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, he leaned in and kissed her lips. The rage in his heart had long since dissipated, leaving behind only boundless happiness. "Shi Wei, put me down." Yu Zhi tapped his shoulder, glancing around nervously, afraid someone might suddenly appear and see them. Shi Wei refused and made a condition: "Kiss me first." The girl quickly gave him a peck, only to find him dissatisfied and insisting she kiss every part of his face before he let her go. "Beep——" A car horn sounded from behind, prompting the inseparable couple to turn their heads in perfect synchronization. Xu Fan rolled down the window, his gaze sweeping over them suggestively: "You two aren’t home yet?" If he remembered correctly, the two had left the Xu Family about fifteen minutes ago. "Yeah, what about you?" Shi Wei noticed the girl shyly burying her head in his chest. Suppressing his smirk, he tactically shifted the topic. "Jin Yunzhi’s wiring is broken. I’m heading there to check it out." Mentioning this, Xu Fan’s expression bore a trace of urgency. "Alright, you go ahead." Shi Wei didn’t probe further, stepping back with the girl in his arms to avoid the car exhaust from reaching her. Once the car had completely disappeared from sight, the girl in his arms finally raised her head. She touched her slightly swollen lips, her mood shifting to irritation as she pulled away from his embrace and walked off. Shi Wei called out to her, but receiving no response, he simply picked her up and lightly patted her backside: "Little stingy one." "Shi Wei!" Yu Zhi had never been hit there before. Her face flushed red with embarrassment and anger as she bit his cheek, leaving a series of deep teeth marks. "Ah." Shi Wei feigned pain, furrowing his brow, rubbing his cheek, and adopting a pitiful expression to garner sympathy: "Zhizhi, it hurts." Hearing this, the girl leaned in closer to examine the red marks on his cheek, her pale coffee-colored eyes blinking in mild confusion. "You’re so delicate." Yu Zhi muttered in distaste as she placed her small hands on his cheek, gently rubbing it. Her movements were careful, focusing entirely on those bite marks, momentarily forgetting about being spanked earlier. "Mm, I’m delicate." The man inclined his head, his peach blossom eyes hidden within the hazy night, rippling like waves. ** The pitch-dark apartment housed a boy wearing gray loungewear. He clutched his beloved strawberry-shaped cushion, curled up into a ball on the sofa. His gaze was fixed on the doorway, his bright grape-like eyes brimming with mist, on the verge of spilling tears. "Tap, tap——" Footsteps echoed softly, growing louder. His grip on the strawberry cushion tightened progressively. At the sound of someone knocking on the door, he abruptly stood up, clutching the baseball bat by his feet, and advancing cautiously. "Who’s there?" His voice trembled with nerves, barely capable of steady speech. The person outside seemed oblivious to his quiet inquiry and swiftly finished entering the passcode. As Xu Fan stepped partway into the room, a baseball bat swung from his right side, aiming directly at his head. "Yunzhi?" Xu Fan quickly caught the bat and tossed it aside, striding through the doorway in search of the boy. "Brother Fan!" Jin Yunzhi dashed toward him, tears flooding his face in an instant after holding them back for so long. Leaning against the other’s shoulder, even while sobbing uncontrollably, he clung tightly to his cushion: "I called you earlier... hic... why didn’t you respond?" Xu Fan stroked his hair, smoothing out the few strands poking up, his voice carrying a subtle gentleness: "I didn’t hear you calling me." "Liar!" Jin Yunzhi cried even harder, as though determined to use his tears to vent all of his grievances.
