Chapter 407

Qiao Ying tilted her head slightly, signaling him to come in.

Qin Hanyue hesitated for a moment, and said, "Why don\'t you just beat me up? Whether it makes you feel better or not, at least I’ll feel better mentally."

Qiao Ying: "Are you sure you can withstand a beating from me?"

Qin Hanyue: "As long as you can vent some anger, breaking a few bones doesn\'t matter, or you can stab me with needles, whatever you want." He was really willing to let it go, and didn’t even fear Qiao Ying would really retaliate.

Qiao Ying: "Stabbing you with needles would be a waste of beauty."

This was the first time he had encountered this situation. Qin Hanyue felt helpless.

With no viable options, his mind raced but he couldn\'t come up with a feasible method. He started to feel anxious.

At this time, he couldn’t help but envy Ye Si. If it was Ye Si who had angered someone, with his methods of apologizing, pleading, and coaxing, he would have eight hundred tricks without repeating himself.

And they would really work.

While Qin Hanyue could also humble himself and imitate one or two of those tricks, the key issue was that the reason he had angered Qiao Ying was somewhat special. He didn’t even know how to properly apologize.

He certainly couldn’t say, “Sorry, I shouldn’t have done it for so long or so intensely.” And even less could he say, “I won’t touch you again in the future.”

Qin San, who was formidable in the business world with superb interpersonal skills and emotional intelligence always switched on, now seemed like an inexperienced youth who had done something wrong.

Seeing him like this for the first time was quite novel, but it also made her feel a bit uncomfortable, as if she was bullying him. She felt a trace of remorse, yet at the same time she was still somewhat upset.

She couldn’t say she was angry. Since she had consented willingly, it wasn’t a big deal. Qin Hanyue had obediently listened to her and kept quiet for two days. The irritation in her heart would naturally dissipate. But he had to be so stubborn, unable to recognize his own capabilities, insisting on trying to appease her, making things more difficult for himself.

It made even the normally broadminded Qiao Ying feel annoyed.

Qiao Ying: “Mr. Qin, are you saying that standing silently outside my door affecting my shower and rest is your way of appeasing and making amends?”

Qin Hanyue: “I...”

Qiao Ying: “Alright, go back to sleep.”

Qiao Ying’s words and tone made Qin Hanyue, as a man, feel somewhat humiliated, as if she was saying “You’re useless.”

As Qiao Ying was about to close the door again, Qin Hanyue suddenly stepped forward half a step and put his arms around her, bringing his lips to her ear and gently asking, “Can you not be angry with me?” He had to at least seize this opportunity.

Qiao Ying helpfully reminded: “Are you sure taking advantage of me is a good apologetic method?”

Qin Hanyue: “But if you don\'t want me to hug you, how could I hug you? Besides, we’re in a romantic relationship, so we should resolve things using romantic methods.”

Qiao Ying: “Didn’t you say you were feeling unwell and reacting slowly?”

Qiao Ying’s words made the culprit feel even more guilty.

Qin Hanyue: “You’ve barely paid me any attention these past two days. This is the first time you’ve been angry with me. No matter if it reached the level of anger or not, in short I upset you. Although in a couple days you won’t dwell on it anymore, as a man, it would be too irresponsible of me to do nothing and just quietly wait for your anger to dissipate. I really can’t adapt to you giving me the cold shoulder.”

“Dating is not the same as doing business. It doesn\'t need to be so calm and tranquil. Lovers should have mutual spiritual, psychological, and emotional influences on each other, whether positive or negative. If you feel bad, regardless of whether it’s because of me or not, I have the responsibility to take care of your feelings, although I may not do it well enough. Rather than letting the issue dissolve over time, I still want to do something.”

He sincerely said, “I was wrong, I’m sorry.”

Qiao Ying: “Finished?”

Qin Hanyue anxiously replied: “Mm.”

Qiao Ying: “Let go, I’m going to take a bath.”

Although unwilling, Qin Hanyue still had no choice but to let her go and retreat.

Qiao Ying glanced at him. Under Qin Hanyue’s somewhat dispirited gaze, she closed the door.

She lifted her foot and walked into the room, muttering “fool” with a smile she couldn’t conceal.

Arriving at the bed, preparing to charge her phone, she saw a box of medicinal ointment on the bedside table that wasn\'t there earlier. It must have been brought over when Qin Hanyue came looking for her while she was with Lin Guli at dinner.

Qiao Ying picked it up and looked at it. When she realized what this ointment was for, her expression suddenly darkened and her shapely eyebrows furrowed.

Then the ointment went into the trash can.

“All that nonsense!” she said irritably.

The next day,

Qiao Ying appeared in front of Lin Guli wearing that turtleneck sweater.

That whole neck of marks was too embarrassing even for Lin Guli as an elder to see. He really hadn’t expected that his unworldly nephew had such a fiery side in private.

Lin Guli was happy for the two’s relationship in his heart.

After a while, Qin Hanyue also came down with a neck full of marks.

Lin Guli returned his greeting, but somehow felt something was off, he couldn\'t say what. He glanced at Qin Hanyue’s neck.

It wasn’t until Lin Cheng appeared, and Lin Guli looked at his nephew’s unblemished neck, then at the other two’s necks marked with splotches, that it seemed even more strange.
