Chapter 11.2

Su Qian keenly sensed that Jin Lie’s gaze was becoming more and more dangerous. She didn’t care that her phone was not back yet, and her strong desire to survive made her turn around and run away.

“Calm down. I’m thinking about how to prove your innocence.”

“I am very calm.” Jin Lie took off his suit jacket and casually draped it over the back of the sofa, then slowly began to unbutton his cuffs.

Su Qian circled around to the back of the sofa, and watched him do these things elegantly. She thought to herself, where is he calm, it looks like anger is about to burst out of his eyes!

“Don’t you have to go to work? Why are you undressing for no reason?”

Jin Lie raised the corner of his lips, “What do you think?”

After saying that, he took long strides towards her.

Su Qian’s mind was filled with various scenes of domestic violence and news of wife-killing, and every time she thought of one, her calves began to tremble. Plus, at this moment, Jin Lie’s gloomy eyes and cold smile were just like a perverted yandere^[1]病嬌(bìng jiāo) = Yandere, “yandere” is a term used in anime and manga to describe a character who is obsessively in love with someone to the point of using violence. in a TV drama.

Her heart skipped a beat, and Su Qian started to run, “Don’t come over here!”

She thought that since they were far apart and Jin Lie was wearing trousers, he shouldn’t be able to catch her so quickly. But she didn’t expect that she had underestimated his ability.

With his long legs, he took three steps in two strides around the sofa, and with a stretch of his long arm, he easily caught her wrist.

In her panic, Su Qian tripped over the carpet, stumbled unexpectedly for two steps, and fell onto Jin Lie.

In the moment of falling, Su Qian, in her urgency, grabbed Jin Lie’s shirt collar.

With a snap, the moment the button flew off, both of them fell onto the sofa together.

Time and space seemed to freeze. The surroundings were terrifyingly quiet, as if only the sound of frantic heartbeats echoed in their ears.

Su Qian swallowed nervously and slowly raised her head. And what came into view was a snow-white collarbone that was dazzling to the eye. Following up from the Adam’s apple was a firm chin, a high nose bridge. Further up, a pair of deep eyes with a hint of playful light.

Every contour of this face was perfectly in place, it could be said to be a work of art.

Su Qian was startled, realizing that she was still holding his collar, and let go as if it were hot.

“How do you plan to prove my innocence?” Jin Lie suddenly asked.

“I haven’t thought about it yet.”

She took a breath, and was about to get up while randomly supporting herself on the sofa, but found that she was being hindered.

“Can you let go of me first so I can get up?”

Jin Lie extended his long fingers, and pointed between them, “It’s not me.”

Only then did Su Qian notice that the lace on her skirt was hooked to the button on his shirt.

“……”

“Can you tear it off?” After all, one button had already fallen off, it wouldn’t matter if another one did.

Jin Lie looked indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with him, “I can’t.”

“Why?”

“I don’t want to.”

Su Qian held back, trying to persuade him, “This will delay your work.”

“It doesn’t matter for my own company.”

It was clear that he wanted her to solve the problem she had caused.

Su Qian took a deep breath. Fine, she would do it.

Ignoring the bizarre posture, Su Qian was almost half lying on Jin Lie, one hand supporting the back of the sofa, and the other trying to untangle the hooked part.

Jin Lie’s gaze lingered on her face for a moment, then turned away silently. He stared at the ceiling, lost in thought.

Five minutes passed, and Su Qian was so anxious that she was about to sweat. She irritably wiped her face, and when she lowered her eyes, she accidentally saw his open collar.

“How much longer are you going to dawdle?”

Jin Lie was getting a bit impatient. Just as his gaze turned to her face, a warm palm covered his eyes.

“Don’t look.”

Jin Lie blinked in the darkness, and a gentle and elegant peach scent entered his nostrils.

“Why are you so idle every day, have you been blacklisted?”

When he blinked, his long eyelashes even grazed her palm. Her palm itched slightly, and Su Qian rubbed his eyelid irritably, trying to make him close his eyes, “If I were blacklisted, you would see me at home every day, do you really hope for that?”

Jin Lie sneered, “I wish you would disappear from my sight right now.”

Su Qian muttered to herself: I also want to disappear from here quickly!

The phone that had fallen on the ground suddenly rang. Su Qian stretched out her hand and found that she couldn’t reach it.

“Hand it to me, please.” Anyway, she couldn’t untangle it.

Seeing the light of day again, Jin Lie squinted his eyes, followed the ringtone, picked up the phone and handed it to her.

Su Qian looked at the caller ID and was slightly taken aback, it was the original owner’s mother.

After hesitating for a few seconds, she answered the phone, “Hello?”

“Qianqian, are you busy?”

Su Qian looked up and saw Jin Lie raising an eyebrow at her.

“…I am a bit busy.”

As she was answering the phone and trying to unbutton her clothes at the same time, her movements were getting more and more forceful, showing signs of impatience.

On the other end of the phone, Mother Su talked a lot, all about family matters.

Su Qian couldn’t catch the main point and was somewhat distracted. Suddenly, she felt a tightness around her waist, and in the next second, as if the world was spinning, she and Jin Lie switched positions.

Su Qian was pressed down on the sofa, involuntarily letting out a muffled hum. The sound was very light and inexplicably carried a hint of ambiguity. She subconsciously covered the phone’s microphone and asked him in a small voice, “What are you doing?”

The sofa still retained his body heat, and his hot breath lightly fell from above, impossible to ignore.

Su Qian suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable.

Jin Lie glanced at her indifferently without saying a word, and casually took the suit jacket draped over the back of the sofa and put it on her.

Then he lowered his head, and his clearly defined fingers went to unbutton his shirt. After fumbling for a few seconds, he frowned and pulled hard, and the button broke off with a snap.

The pressure on her body suddenly disappeared, and Jin Lie stood up. From this angle she could only see his messy hair and handsome nose bridge.

He casually threw the button on the coffee table, turned around and took off the suit from Su Qian.

The white shirt was loosely worn on him, paired with slightly messy hair, it created a sense of disheveled beauty. When he bent over, Su Qian could even see his collarbone and solid abs from where the button had fallen off.

…Dazzlingly white.

Under the messy bangs, his long eyelashes trembled slightly. Jin Lie glanced at her lightly, and unbuttoning his shirt as he went up the stairs.

Su Qian’s gaze followed him.

His fingers hooked the suit jacket, the hem loose. The bright sunlight in the stairway penetrated the thin shirt fabric, outlining a standard inverted triangle silhouette.

Nice waist.

“Su Qian, are you listening to me?” Mother Su was still chattering on the phone, “Do you have time to come back today?”

“…Hmm.”

Su Qian placed her arm horizontally in front of her eyes. And the scene in the stairway lingered in her mind.

It’s really enchanting.
