Confession scene part 2 sponsored by Miaunian~ Thank you for your support💕
When Xu Chenghao heard the first half, he just thought, ‘as expected,’ but then the second half shattered his thoughts directly. He stammered, “Who taught you that!”
Jing Yicheng honestly replied, “My assistant.”
Xu Chenghao: “You just obey whatever he says? Do you know what you’re saying?”
“I know. I’m confessing to you, Xu Chenghao. I like you, no, I love you. I want to spend the rest of my life with you.” Jing Yicheng handed the bouquet of strawberries and chili peppers to Xu Chenghao.
Xu Chenghao hadn’t recovered yet and was once again hit by this direct approach, holding his head, he said, “Wait a moment, let me gather my thoughts.
Jing Yicheng placed the bouquet of strawberries and chili peppers on the bedside table, picked a strawberry, and fed it to him, calmly saying, “You don’t need to think, anyway, you can’t reject me.”
Xu Chenghao ate the strawberry and mumbled, “Why can’t I reject you?!”
Jing Yicheng: “I said this bouquet is compensation you can’t reject me. Since you’ve already eaten the strawberry, it means you’ve agreed, of course, you can’t reject me.”
Xu Chenghao, who had just swallowed: “???”
Jing Yicheng picked another strawberry and sent it to Xu Chenghao’s lips.
“Get away from me!” Xu Chenghao dodged the feeding attempt. “You’re forcing me to accept!”
Jing Yicheng sat on the edge of the bed, chasing to feed him, “Don’t be angry, have one more.”
“I won’t eat!”
“But it’s sweet.”
“I won’t eat even if it’s sweet…” Xu Chenghao raised his hand to push away Jing Yicheng’s hand, then suddenly found something and pulled his hand back to look carefully. He saw that Jing Yicheng’s palm was covered with tiny words: “What’s this?”
Jing Yicheng immediately clenched his fist, “It’s nothing.”
Xu Chenghao: “Are you going to tell me or not?”
Jing Yicheng lowered his head and said, “I’m nervous, afraid of forgetting the words…” So he wrote them in the palm of his hand just in case.
He knew that Xu Chenghao would understand the rest without saying it. Xu Chenghao let go of his hand and said seriously, “Did your assistant teach you?”
Jing Yicheng nodded, completely betraying his ally.
Xu Chenghao looked at him with a hint of helplessness and said, “So, did you confess because someone prompted you, or because you felt guilty about my leg?”
Jing Yicheng glanced down, “No, it’s my own pettiness acting up, wanting to monopolize you.”
Xu Chenghao: “Stop peeking at your cheat sheet!”
Jing Yicheng: “…”
Xu Chenghao angrily pulled his ear and said, “I must tell you, love is not something that can be neatly started and ended like a project. Once love begins, we cannot predict what will happen next. You must bear the responsibility and risk of love, and you may even get hurt. I’ll ask you again, are you still sure?”
Jing Yicheng replied with unwavering certainty, “I’m sure. I may not be able to speak sweet words without looking at my cheat sheet, but I’m certain that what I want from beginning to end is you! I don’t want you to care about anyone else, I don’t want you to be intimate with anyone else, I don’t want anyone to interfere in our lives and take everything from you as a matter of course!”
Jing Yicheng’s eyes were particularly serious: “So, I can only claim you first.”
Xu Chenghao met his gaze, and his hand which was pulling Jing Yicheng’s instinctively loosened, wanting to retract, but Jing Yicheng grabbed his hand first and bit down. Xu Chenghao’s eyes widened in fright as the teeth grazed his skin. But in the end, Jing Yicheng just lightly nibbled, turning it into a silent kiss.
He said, “I’m very sure.”
Xu Chenghao stiffened, subconsciously turning his head away. “Then give me another strawberry.”
After taking five seconds to process the meaning of this statement, Jing Yicheng became excited. “You agreed!”
Xu Chenghao stared out the window, his ears rapidly turning red. He stuttered, “Who… who said I agreed? I just gave you a chance.”
Jing Yicheng placed the strawberry in his palm and held it gently. “Then I’ll strive to do well!”
Xu Chenghao silently withdrew his hand and ate the strawberry.
Jing Yicheng sat happily on the edge of the bed, watching him eat. “Do you want more? There’s more here.”
Xu Chenghao still very much enjoyed strawberries. As he ate, he suddenly remembered something and looked around with confusion. “Where’s Li Nian?”
If he remembered correctly, Li Nian was chatting with him during dinner. How did it suddenly change to Jing Yicheng?
Jing Yicheng remained unfazed. “The assistant took him outside to spare him the embarrassment.”
“Oh…” Xu Chenghao thought of Li Nian and remembered what he had been thinking about before, and said, “By the way, the assistant said that you have investigated the causes and consequences of my car accident. I want to see what happened.”
Jing Yicheng sighed helplessly, “What’s there to see about your own car accident? Aren’t you afraid?”
Xu Chenghao replied, “Once you’ve experienced it, you’re not afraid anymore. Besides, I want to confirm something.”
Jing Yicheng could never argue with Xu Chenghao, so in the end, he could only nod in agreement, get up, and go find the assistant for the information.
The hospital room door kept opening and closing. Jing Yicheng left alone but returned with his assistant and Li Nian.
Xu Chenghao looked at the obvious red marks at the corner of Li Nian’s mouth and frowned, “What happened to your face?”
Li Nian rolled his eyes weakly, “Got covered by some vulgar person’s hand.”
Xu Chenghao glanced at Jing Yicheng but didn’t say anything, but his expression clearly showed his displeasure.
Jing Yicheng immediately betrayed his teammate, “It wasn’t me.”
The assistant could only take the initiative to speak: “I’m sorry, Assistant Li, I used too much strength and accidentally hurt you.”
Li Nian couldn’t pursue it either. After all, he couldn’t beat this assistant. He could only force a smile and say it was okay, then keep as far away from him as possible.
Xu Chenghao looked at Li Nian with a smile in his eyes, as if saying, “You’re getting a taste of your own medicine.” You see, Li Nian usually likes to tease Xu Chenghao because he’s physically weaker. Whenever they play around, he jumps up and down, sometimes even bullying Xu Chenghao himself. Who would have thought that he would face such a situation today?
Li Nian looked at the sky in silence, not wanting to say anything.
Xu Chenghao let him off the hook and focused his attention on the documents, taking a glance at the traffic monitoring of his car accident.
The accident happened at a crossroads. In the footage, Xu Chenghao’s car was the first to arrive at the traffic light. Since it was green, Xu Chenghao proceeded straight ahead. Suddenly, a car from behind spun out and hit the back door of his car, pushing him several dozen meters to the right. Then, a large truck unexpectedly rushed towards Xu Chenghao, even though it should have been a red light.
However, because the spinning car was blocking the road ahead, the truck driver couldn’t stop in time and collided with the spinning car’s roof, causing it to flip over. Xu Chenghao’s car was pinned down by the overturned truck, with his legs trapped inside, resulting in the most severe injury to his legs while other parts were just scraped.
Xu Chenghao reviewed the footage again and again from a god’s-eye view and found many issues. For example, when the traffic light was red, the truck showed no intention of stopping, so the car behind must have sensed something wrong and spun out to avoid the collision. Fortunately, before the truck arrived, everyone in the spinning car had jumped out, so there were no casualties.
So, apart from Xu Chenghao, no one else was injured in this accident. Xu Chenghao even doubted if his leg injury was because of his spare tire halo. After all the truck driver’s car had flipped over, and yet he could still come out alive and try to escape.
Was his injury really not caused by Spare Tire Halo? God damn it!
Xu Chenghao forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and continued to look at the materials. The information indicated that the source of this disaster was Zhuo Meixue. Xu Chenghao knew without looking at the specifics. It must be because of Jing Yicheng’s two shots. It’s just that Xu Chenghao’s car broke down and he took Jing Yicheng’s car, which led the lurking people to think that Jing Yicheng had come directly.
So, does Ruan Chenxuan’s car accident also have something to do with Zhuo Meixue? After all, it was Ruan Chenxuan who used her, which led her to find Jing Yicheng, causing the current situation.
Sure enough, after one detail changes, the rest of the story will be completely different.
After confirming his thoughts, Xu Chenghao closed the computer and returned it to his assistant, suddenly asking, “Where is Zhuo Meixue now?”
The assistant replied calmly, “She committed suicide out of fear.”
Xu Chenghao’s heart jumped, immediately turning to look at Jing Yicheng.
Jing Yicheng responded quickly, “It wasn’t me! I can swear!”
Xu Chenghao frowned, “Then what about the driver?”
Jing Yicheng looked righteous, “He attempted to kill me, so naturally, I will report it and follow legal procedures to protect my safety.”
Xu Chenghao patted his face with satisfaction, “Good boy.”
Jing Yicheng felt delighted: “Remember to reward me.”
Xu Chenghao: “Okay.”
Assistant: “…”
Li Nian: “…”
I feel like I shouldn’t be here.
After Xu Chenghao appeased Jing Yicheng, he said to Li Nian: “Come over tomorrow and bring my office computer. If there’s anything, just email me directly. I’ll handle what I can, and I can participate in important meetings via video.”
Li Nian suddenly became serious: “If you wear hospital clothes in the video, won’t everyone know you’re injured?”
Xu Chenghao: “It’ll take at least three months for me to be discharged and there’s no guarantee of full recovery. It’s probably too long to hide, so let it be exposed. As long as it’s after Ruan Chenxuan, it’s fine.”
Li Nian nodded thoughtfully and said, “Actually, I can make a few trips myself, but are you sure you can still work like this? Your head is injured.”
Xu Chenghao shook his head. “It’s fine, except for my leg, everything else is just minor scrapes.”
Li Nian frowned, glanced at the bouquet of strawberry peppers on the table, and cleared his throat. “If you’re not feeling well, don’t push yourself. You’re not alone in this, right? Mr. Jing?”
Jing Yicheng looked at Xu Chenghao without hesitation. “Of course, I can help you!”
Xu Chenghao gave Li Nian a helpless look. “Don’t listen to him.”
Jing Yicheng: “I can.”
Xu Chenghao stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly asked teasingly, “What about the chili peppers I just planted in the greenhouse?”
Jing Yicheng replied confidently, “I’ll take care of it.”
Xu Chenghao: “The chili pepper plantation isn’t finished yet.”
Jing Yicheng: “I’ll supervise.”
Xu Chenghao: Then there’ll be no one to take care of me.”
Jing Yicheng: “How could that be? You are the most important. I will definitely prioritize taking care of you over these things.”
Xu Chenghao was coaxed to his heart’s content and said happily, “You’re doing well. At least what you said makes me happy.”
Jing Yicheng lifted his hand to kiss it and earnestly promised, “I will do better in the future.”
Xu Chenghao felt a bit uncomfortable and wanted to retract his hand: “Stop being so slick. You should act more and talk less to truly show your sincerity.”
Jing Yicheng pondered the meaning of ‘act more’ for a moment, then suddenly leaned in to kiss the side of Xu Chenghao’s face: “Okay, less talk, more action.”
Li Nian: “…”
Assistant: “…”
They both couldn’t help but feel like they shouldn’t be there.
