Beijing-Hong Kong Confession

Chapter 120 Throwing yourself into my arms

Zhu Xia stayed in the castle for one night.

In the early morning, the sky was turning pale. The sound of birds singing came in from outside the window. She tilted her head to look out the window, stretched herself, got up from the bed and opened the curtains.

The morning sun poured in, instantly illuminating the bedroom. Birds were jumping and chirping on the branches, flapping their wings, full of vitality.

Zhu Xia did not go to the balcony. Instead, he rested his chin on his arms, leaned on the windowsill and looked into the distance. The dawn light penetrated the clouds, and the sun slowly rose from the Alps. The golden light reflected on the snow on the mountain, weaving a dazzling beautiful scenery of the snow-capped mountains in the sun.

The sunlight came through the window and hit her thick hair, emitting sparkling golden light. The temperature in the room was just right. She was only wearing a suspender silk nightgown. The dark green color made her skin look like snow.

He Lianzhou came in to see if Zhu Xia had woken up, and when he saw this scene, he stopped to watch. He leaned against the door frame, crossed his arms, and looked at her quietly without saying a word.

It was a long time, until Zhu Xia's arms felt a little numb and he sat up straight, that he walked in.

"Good morning." She saw him and said.

"morning."

He Lianzhou stood in front of Zhu Xia and reached out to pull her up, but her legs were a little numb and she lost her balance and fell on him.

Zhu Xia pressed her palm on He Lianzhou's chest and could feel the hard texture under his clothes, while the man's strong and thin arms were wrapped around her waist, exerting infinite force and forcing the two of them to stick close to each other.

He lowered his head, pressed his thin lips against hers, and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't you want to have breakfast?"

Throwing yourself into someone's arms early in the morning can easily lead to a passionate affair.

Thinking about how she didn't have the energy to eat dinner after work the day before, Zhu Xia was distracted for a few seconds. At this moment, she suddenly felt a dull pain in her waist and abdomen, and she woke up abruptly.

"I'm going to the bathroom."

She pushed him away and slipped into the bathroom in her slippers.

My period came three days early.

It is common to have the pain a few days earlier or later, but the pain will be sometimes stronger and sometimes weaker. I hope it won’t be as severe this time.

After tidying himself up and coming out of the bathroom, He Lianzhou stood in front of the window looking at the chirping birds on the branches outside.

He turned around and looked her up and down, finally stopping his gaze on her dark, bright eyes.

"Period?"

Zhu Xia didn't bother to find out how he came up with the answer, so she just said "hmm" softly.

The next second, she was picked up by him.

Zhu Xia subconsciously hugged He Lianzhou's neck, and after two seconds of silence, she said, "I can walk by myself, put me down."

Seeing that he had no reaction, she glared at him: "Hey!"

"It's a little heavier than before," he said.

Zhu Xia was unconvinced: "I've grown taller, what's the point?"

"You've taken good care of yourself in the past five years."

"What do you mean by okay? Don't judge my life by your own super high living standards. I'm doing fine."

He Lianzhou said "hmm" and asked calmly, "Are you happy?"

"…Of course I am happy."

While they were chatting, they were almost at the restaurant. Struggling was useless, so Zhu Xia simply stopped moving.

It was a very regular German breakfast. Zhu Xia’s stomach was bloated and she ate less than usual. She finished a bowl of bird’s nest porridge and only took a few bites of the other food.

After breakfast, we headed to the airport to return to Hong Kong.

Zhu Xia got into the car first. Seeing Anna coming in another car, he respectfully called out "Mr. He" and handed him a black and gold gift bag.

Her stomach began to ache slightly again, so she looked away, leaned back in her chair, closed her eyes and rested.

The car door opened, and a brief cold air came, which soon disappeared. She knew that He Lianzhou had sat in, and then a long arm hooked her shoulders and moved her towards him... When Zhu Xia opened her eyes, something warm and soft was stuffed into her hand. She lowered her eyelashes and saw that it was a hand-warming pillow.

Well.

So cute. In the shape of a kitten.

Zhu Xia put her hands into the pillow, pressed them against her stomach, and her whole body felt warm.

She took a closer look at the contents of the bag: heating pads, sanitary napkins, tampons, painkillers... quite a complete set.

Zhu Xia raised her eyelids and looked at the man's smooth jawline. She suddenly remembered that she had occasionally felt severe pain and woke up in the middle of the night. She didn't want to take medicine, so she got up to pour herself a glass of water. It was really painful, so she squatted on the ground to recover. Unexpectedly, he woke up too. People always get close to warmth involuntarily. That night, maybe it was too painful, or it might be too warm... For the first time, she lost control of her emotions, and tears couldn't be restrained from falling from her eyes one by one. She bit her fingers to prevent her from crying, but the endless tears still wet the pillow and his chest.

He held her face, kissed her eyebrows, her eyes, her lips, and left countless wet kisses, smoothing out the thorns on her body to prevent her from stabbing herself, so that she wouldn't feel lonely when she couldn't sleep at night. In the nights of the two of them, he hugged her tightly again and again, and caught her again and again when she was about to break.

Zhu Xia is not a sentimental or self-pitying person, but she has to admit some facts.

Between them, he was never wrong from the beginning to the end.

She drew a lot from him to mend her broken and cold soul.

Eighteen years ago, the building collapsed, she lost her parents, entered a world that did not belong to her, and achieved a class jump. Maybe it was a bit hypocritical, and she was taking advantage of it, but she was definitely not very happy.

She often encouraged herself, saying that since other people are hell, she should just be herself. At least, she couldn't let herself be wronged.

She did it, always starting from her own feelings and not making choices that would make herself uncomfortable.

But there are always exceptions.

"Why are you crying? Does it hurt?"

The man's voice brought Zhu Xia back to her senses. He held her face in his warm hands and wiped away the tears that were about to fall from her eyelashes with his fingertips.

"No." Zhu Xia blinked quickly, her moist eyes were exceptionally clear and bright, "I'm sleepy."

He Lianzhou looked at her expression several times to make sure her posture was okay, then he held her in his arms and rested his chin on her forehead.

"Rest when you feel tired."

"Ah."

Zhu Xia closed her eyes but did not fall asleep. Her sleep quality has been pretty good recently. She basically sleeps until she wakes up naturally. She is not very sleepy now.

Zhu Xia opened her eyes when the car arrived at the airport. The crew was still the same as when she came. The flight attendant enthusiastically took her to the lounge and brought her some nourishing soup.

When I opened it, it was rose, white fungus and raw coconut.

He Lianzhou was busy with official duties, so Zhu Xia just curled up on the sofa, hugging a warm pillow, and slowly drinking rose, white fungus and raw coconut milk.

Only now did she have time to take out her phone. She found that Song Chengyu had called her several times and sent her several WeChat messages. The contents of the first few messages were basically the same as usual, except for the new message sent at 8:13 this morning.

Song Chengyu: "Xia Xia, do you still remember our agreement?"
