Falling in Love with My Contracted Husband - Chapter 79

Chapter 79 Intimate Contact
Lin Qiyuan’s loneliness dissipated when the cute laughter of the children came. Xiaoxiao held the lollipop and her pair of agile little eyes. She gulped. She had many ideas. When she saw Lin Qiyuan and An Zixi standing together, she secretly leaned into the other child’s ear and whispered something.

Another child nodded his head and walked over to Lin Qiyuan. He pulled Lin Qiyuan’s shirt sleeve and yelled, “Big Brother Yuan.”

“What’s the matter?” Lin Qiyuan bent down and smiled warmly.

Xiaoxiao followed suit, but she grabbed An Zixi’s hand. An Zixi had always liked children, but now that Xiaoxiao was so kind to her, she bent down and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Sister, do you like playing games?”

Play games? An Zixi’s previous days were all restricted. She still remembered the games from a long time ago. She had long since forgotten what it was like to play games with others.

After thinking for a while, An Zixi nodded and touched her head with a smile, “Think about it.”

Lin Qiyuan did not expect her to agree to play the game. He asked, “Do you want to play the game?”

“Yes.” As he spoke, An Zixi had already pulled Xiaoxiao’s small hand and walked towards the children.

Lin Qiyuan was stunned as he stared blankly at her back, while the child beside him blinked at him.

Lin Qiyuan instantly understood something as he pulled the child’s hand and walked over.

“Then, what game do you want to play?” An Zixi nodded her head and found that there were quite a few children. She was not very good at games and did not know what kind of games were suitable for children to play.

The children stood neatly, their small eyes all focused on An Zixi. Their faces were tender and their eyes were filled with confusion, “I don’t know.”

An Zixi looked at Lin Qiyuan as if he was asking for help. He bent his lips and didn’t say anything. He just looked at her as if he wanted to know what kind of game An Zixi could come up with.

“Xiao Qi, what do you think?”

Lin Qiyuan shook his head and said, “I don’t know much about this either. Why don’t you ask the children?”

As soon as he finished speaking, a child took the lead and said, “Old Eagle catches chicks!”

“Right, right! The eagle catches the chicks.”

The surrounding children seemed to have found something of particular interest and were extremely excited.

However, An Zixi was in a dilemma. Although this game seemed simple, she had never played it before. She had only heard of it and watched it before. However, did she really want to participate in it?

An Zixi’s palm was grabbed by a soft hand. He lowered his head and smiled grievously, “Sister, don’t you like to play this game?”

“No, no.” An Zixi shook her head repeatedly. Although she didn’t like you anymore, she couldn’t show it. After all, she could see the anticipation on the faces of these children. “Big sister likes it very much. Then, who will tell big sister the rules of the game?”

“Sister, there are no rules. As long as the eagle catches the chick, it will be considered the eagle winning.” A child added from the side.

An Zixi understood a little. She raised her eyes to look at Lin Qiyuan. When they were young, they had played games together. However, the number of times they played together was very few. In the following days, she was adopted by the An family, let alone having any chance to play.

Lin Qiyuan clapped his hands, attracting everyone’s attention. “Then let’s play this game. Everyone said, who’s going to be the eagle? Also, who’s the mother chicken?” When he said this, Lin Qiyuan’s gaze fell on An Zixi. An Zixi frowned as if he was very confused.

An Zixi raised his right hand in everyone’s eyes and weakly asked, “Hmm … can anyone tell me what mother chicken is?”

“Sister is so stupid. Mother Chicken is the one who protects the chicks. Then let Sister An be Mother Chicken and Brother Yuan be Old Eagle.” Xiaoxiao was always smart and had such a plan in her heart. She chuckled and walked to Lin Qiyuan’s side. She raised her head and asked, “Brother Yuan, do you like being an eagle?”

If Lin Qiyuan had a black line, who would like to be an eagle? Just as he was about to deny it, he suddenly wanted to frighten the group of children, so he made a terrifying expression. He opened his teeth and waved his claws, wanting to frighten Xiaoxiao.

Xiaoxiao cried out in fright, and the other children also fled in all directions.

An Zixi rarely saw Lin Qiyuan like this. Seeing the children running all over the ground, she couldn’t help but laugh.

“Mother Chicken, hurry up and save us.” Xiaoxiao ran while shouting, passively participating in the war, while An Zixi pulled the children all over the field.

After running for a long time, he finally started to play the game seriously. Not long after, An Zixi had already entered his state, and the child behind An Zixi was hiding behind An Zixi with an excited expression.

“Hehe, I’m here.” Lin Qiyuan still looked like he was waving his claws and teeth. He stood in front of An Zixi, but he stared at the child behind An Zixi, wanting to find an opportunity to make a move.

An Zixi opened his hands nervously, wanting to protect the child behind him. However, Lin Qiyuan did not look like a fierce eagle. An Zixi wanted to laugh at him, so she had inadvertently lost a lot of “chicks”.

“Mother Chicken, you’re not a good mother. There are only a few chicks left behind you.” Seeing that An Zixi was still at a loss, Lin Qiyuan couldn’t help but laugh, “You should treat me like an eagle.”

“Why do I treat you like an eagle? You don’t look like an eagle at all.” An Zixi looked at the “chick” behind her. There were so many people, but there were only three left. She really failed.

As soon as An Zixi finished speaking, the children beside him started laughing. The game was about to end at this time. In a panic, An Zixi looked out of the window. The sky gradually darkened and the street lights lit up one by one. Shouldn’t she go back? If Tang Jinchen suddenly came back and found that she wasn’t home at this late hour, would she be angry?

But why would she care about his feelings? He obviously didn’t care about his own, then why would he care about him?

After thinking nonsense for a while, An Zixi came back to her senses. However, within such a short period of time, Lin Qiyuan had already reached out his hand to the “chick” behind her.

An Zixi was shocked. She wanted to change her position and protect the chicks, but she forgot that she was wearing high heels and was about to fall to the ground. At this moment, Lin Qiyuan was right beside An Zixi. Seeing that she was about to fall, Lin Qiyuan immediately took a step forward and hugged her slender waist.

However, he himself did not stand firmly, so the two of them fell heavily on the ground together. However, at this moment, An Zixi fell on Lin Qiyuan’s body. Her eyes were wide open, and her small hands were pressed against Lin Qiyuan’s chest.

The two of them were extremely intimate.

Lin Qiyuan was stunned by the sudden shortening of the distance. His heart was beating fast, but An Zixi was even more at a loss. He hugged her waist and hugged her tightly. She felt as if she was about to suffocate.

“Do not look at indecent assault. Do not look at indecent assault.”

The children on the side began to tease. Some of the older children covered their eyes with their hands, not allowing them to look. However, those children wanted to peel off their hands forcefully.

When An Zixi heard the children say this, his face turned red and he hurriedly got up from Lin Qiyuan’s body. Lin Qiyuan let go of her arms and his face turned a little red.

Seeing that the two of them had such a good opportunity but did not make any moves, the children were a little discouraged. An Zixi picked up the leather bag on the table and said, “I’m going back first.” Then, he ran out.

Lin Qiyuan turned around to greet the children and followed them out. I wonder what An Zixi will think, is she very angry that she hugged her now? What should he do?

As soon as he left the orphanage, Lin Qiyuan saw An Zixi standing in front of the door. She had her back to him and her waist was straight. She was clearly such a thin figure, but she was trying to be strong. Lin Qiyuan felt uncomfortable in his heart. He loved her, and always loved her.

Although he had never interfered with her life, he could tell that she was wronged and disappointed. He wanted to protect her and even … leave her by his side without any harm.

Lin Qiyuan walked over. An Zixi turned around to look at him, but he avoided his gaze. He only glanced at him unnaturally with the corner of his eye. “You came out. I’m sorry, I just … left now. Is that alright?”

“It’s fine.” Lin Qiyuan shook his head and said, “Go back. I’ll see you off.”

“Thank you.” An Zixi nodded and withdrew his gaze. Then, he walked towards the side of the car, but the person behind him did not move.

An Zixi looked back at him in confusion, “Xiao Qi, what’s wrong with you?”

“I like you.”

It was unknown how much courage Lin Qiyuan had gathered. He told her the secret he had hidden in his heart for many years. What would he do to make her fall in love with him? He didn’t know, but he didn’t want to bury the secret anymore. He wanted to tell her that he liked her, that he wanted to take care of her, that he wanted to stay by her side for the rest of his life, not just as a friend.

After suffocating for a while, An Zixi’s back froze. She did not expect Lin Qiyuan to tell her this. She thought that he would keep this secret for the rest of his life, but today, he actually told her about it.

An Zixi was stunned. She didn’t know what to do, but now she knew what it meant to be at a loss. But now she was very scared, afraid that the relationship between them would never return to the past.

“Zixi.”

Lin Qiyuan called her again. Her voice was still gentle, but it caused An Zixi’s body to tremble. What should she do? They were clearly best friends, and between them, they could only be friends.

An Zixi closed his eyes and thought for a moment. He turned around and smiled stiffly, “Xiao Qi, it’s time for me to go home. Take me back. It’s getting late.”

Seeing her smile so stiff, Lin Qiyuan felt a stab of pain in his heart, but he was unwilling to endure it any longer. Since his words had already reached his mouth, he might as well say it out loud.

“Zixi, you know what I mean, don’t you? You’ve always known, haven’t you?”

An Zixi bit his lips and tears gradually flowed into his eyes. “Xiao Qi, stop talking.”

“No, I have to say, I always thought that we would be together. Zixi, don’t tell me you don’t have any feelings for me at all?”

Lin Qiyuan shook his head. When he saw the tears in her eyes, he felt that she liked him. Otherwise, why would she cry?

However, An Zixi only cried because she felt guilty. She felt that she had wronged him. It was not that she did not know how good Lin Qiyuan was to her. Sometimes, even though she clearly knew, she still had to absorb the warmth from his body. She was selfish. She was extremely selfish.

“I… Xiao Qi, don’t like me, don’t.” At this moment, the tears in his eyes couldn’t help but flow down.

“Why?” Lin Qiyuan couldn’t understand, “Why can’t I like you? Zixi.”

Hearing him ask him this, An Zixi cried more and more intensely. Lin Qiyuan couldn’t bear to see her cry so sadly. He could only walk to her side and wipe her tears away with a tissue. “Zixi, don’t cry. Just pretend that I didn’t say anything. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have scared you and shouldn’t have asked you.”

“Xiao Qi.” An Zixi raised a small face full of tears. She shook her head and said, “It’s not like this. I…”

Lin Qiyuan saw that she wanted to say something, but he suddenly became scared. He began to be afraid of hearing the answer. He was afraid that the answer he wanted from An Zixi was not what he expected.

If that was the case, then would he listen? He would foolishly deceive himself and accompany her.

Just like this, he continued to be stupid …
