Chapter 783 The Cage of Innocence 23
The bathroom fell silent instantly, so quiet you could hear each other breathing, with only the sound of water droplets falling from his hair echoing softly in the damp air.
Suddenly, a roar came from outside the window. The light rail, like a raging monster, rolled over the tracks, tearing the night sky with a thunderous crash.
Your little apartment trembled slightly, water droplets rolled down the walls, and your interlocked fingers gripped even tighter, as if trying to grasp something more tangible than a heartbeat in this brief tremor.
Their lips parted, and Qin Che looked down at you, your breath unsteady and your face flushed, his voice filled with tenderness: "I thought you could hold on a little longer..."
Once you've caught your breath, you glare at him angrily, fully aware that you always lose when you argue. You decisively choose not to speak and instead seal his lips with yours again.
"Um......"
"asshole......"
"You bastard who misses you that much...?"
"Shut up......"
"..."
"Do not laugh!"
"overbearing."
************
After the "fierce battle" ended, Qin Che carried you to be cleaned up, changed you into comfortable pajamas, and squeezed onto the small bed in your apartment. The two of you, close together, could clearly hear each other's breathing.
"The view here is nice." Qin Che rubbed his chin against the top of your head, his tone carrying a hint of amusement that was hard to define.
"Yeah, I've changed houses several times, but this one is the most suitable." You snuggled closer to him, your fingertips idly tracing circles on his chest. "The floor height is just right, the view is unobstructed, and you can see everything happening outside clearly. It's easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it's also convenient to evacuate if something happens."
Qin Che chuckled softly, the vibrations of his chest transmitted through their skin: "You haven't forgotten what I taught you."
He paused, then twirled a small tuft of your hair around his long, slender fingers. "But what I'm trying to say is that this place is right on the edge of the upper town, close to the bridge, and you can see the lower town from the window."
You gently rolled over, burying your face in the crook of his neck, and replied in a muffled voice, "It's a pity we can't see where we used to live."
Silence spread through the small space, and the questions that had been deliberately suppressed in their hearts surged up like a tide.
He has been out of contact for the past few years. There are so many things you want to know and so many mysteries to unravel.
"Why didn't you come back back then?" You knelt before him, looking up into his red eyes. Finally, you asked the question that had been buried deep in your heart, "What exactly happened?"
Qin Che paused for half a second: "You asked so directly? I thought you would say a few words before you spoke."
He was silent for a moment, then his voice turned somber: "That day, I was ambushed by people from CYD."
“CYD?” You frowned slightly, the surprise in your eyes slowly subsiding. “It’s unexpected, but it also makes sense…it seems to make sense.”
After all, it was Qin Che; it was simply a pipe dream for him to succeed in assassinating him.
But if it's CYD, then everything makes sense.
Against this vast global backdrop, this business giant, which started in biotechnology, openly proclaims itself a "lifestyle changer," launching products that each claim to be groundbreaking. Behind the scenes, however, it's all about controlling the pulse of the city, revolving around city halls...
