Bo Yucheng froze.
The crescent-shaped birthmark on the girl’s right shoulder blade was very distinct against her fair skin. However, he only saw it for a brief moment before Shi Qinglan swiftly covered it with her hair.
“Why did you suddenly…!”
Shi Qinglan couldn’t even finish speaking when Bo Yucheng pulled her into his arms and kissed her on the lips.
Although there wasn’t any steam in the bathroom, there was a hint of intimacy and love.
“Why did you hide in the bathroom right after you came back, hmm?”
Bo Yucheng hugged the girl gently. His hand that was holding her behind her back was warm. He rubbed his chin on top of her head as he said the loving words in a low voice.
Shi Qinglan hugged the man around his waist. “I thought you were still at work, so I wanted to take a bath first…”
Bo Yucheng’s eyes darkened upon hearing that.
His instinct told him that the girl hadn’t told the truth, but he didn’t want to pursue it. He still rubbed her head in an indulgent manner. “Are you still going to bathe now?”
Shi Qinglan shook her head before pressing her face to the man’s chest and said with a coy voice, “I’m hungry.”
Bo Yucheng’s low laughter rumbled from his throat.
He lowered his head to kiss the girl in between her brows before pulling her school uniform close for her. “Let’s go down for dinner after you put on your clothes.”
“Mm-hm,” Shi Qinglan replied softly.
Bo Yuchengs adam’s apple moved, and he felt a dryness in his throat.
He looked at the girl who only had her jacket on and pressed his lips together. “I’ll go out first.”
He instantly turned and left the bathroom.
…
Shi Qinglan came out after changing her clothes.
Dishes of delicacies were already placed on the dining table. Bo Yucheng most likely had estimated the time she would come back after school and asked a chef to cook all her favorite dishes.
“Slow down. You have got a rice grain stuck to your mouth.” Bo Yucheng smiled as he watched the girl enjoy her food.
Shi Qinglan blinked her eyes. She lifted her hand to remove the rice, but the man suddenly pecked her at her mouth. “No more.”
The girl became angry, a hint of annoyance in that pair of bewitching eyes. She glared at the man. “Bo Yucheng! No messing around during the meal!”
The curl on Bo Yucheng’s lips became more and more obvious. He chuckled in a low voice while he placed a sweet and sour pork rib into her bowl. “I am seeking my rights and benefits from my girlfriend.”
Shi Qinglan threw him an exasperated glance.
She gently touched the corner of her lips with her finger. After making sure the rice was gone, she picked up the sweet and sour pork rib and chewed on it. “Hmpf.”
But she still couldn’t help but smile.
It was super sweet. She felt angry yet very sweet at the same time.
Shi Qinglan napped for a little while after lunch before soaking in the bathtub to ponder about the birthmark. She only got out after the water turned cold with her wet hair loose down her back.
After drying her hair, she went back to the bedroom in her bathrobe and snuggled in her warm bed with her laptop.
Her fair and slender fingers were dancing on the keyboard like a butterfly.
Complicated codes appeared all over the computer screen. Soon after, Shi Qinglan started up the intel network of the world’s number one organization, Peace Chamber, and logged in with an SVIP identity.
“Shi Qingjue…”
The name was entered into the search bar.
The intel network system was searching rapidly when some noises came from outside the bedroom. “Crack–”
Shi Qinglan immediately logged off and switched off the computer.
Then, she looked up and saw the tall figure. The man reached her bed within two strides and climbed in under the covers straight away.
