Beijing-Hong Kong Rosemary

Chapter 145 You Will Never Be a Trouble
Shen Guining took the initiative to open her mouth and stick out her tongue, mimicking his usual actions, though she appeared somewhat clumsy.

Qu Yanci paused for only a second, and the next moment his palm cupped the back of her head, gradually deepening the pressure.

This position was inconvenient, so he simply lifted the person onto his lap and pressed them into his arms.

The sounds of their kissing were tender and passionate, their breaths heavy and labored.

Shen Guining played with the buttons on his shirt collar, accidentally unbuttoning one. Her fingertip touched his hot chest, feeling its firmness and smoothness. She wanted to touch his abs.

Qu Yanci grasped her wrist, his eyes deep and unfathomable, his throat slightly itchy, his voice hoarse, "Touching me again will cause trouble."

Shen Guining sensed the change in his body, gently bit her lip, and tears of embarrassment welled up in her eyes. "I...I'll help you."

Qu Yanci's brow twitched. He released her hand and asked in a low voice, "Do you know how to untie it?"

Shen Guining pondered for a moment, then moved her lips and said, "Yes."

Her ears burned red, and she clutched his shirt with her fingertips. "Let's go back to the room."

Qu Yanci followed her lead, moved his arm behind her back, and slipped his other hand under her legs, easily lifting her up and carrying her back to the bedroom.

After more than half an hour, Shen Guining's wrists became sore, so she leaned against the headboard to rest.

Qu Yanci took out two wet wipes and wiped her palms clean.

The blush on Shen Guining's face lingered, her eyes burned, and she awkwardly looked away.

Her skin was delicate, and her fair palms were rubbed red.

Qu Yanci tossed away the wet wipe, lowered his head, and pressed his thin lips against her cheek again, "Kiss me a little longer."

His high, straight nose touched her nose bridge, their breaths mingling, warm and tingling.

Once their lips touched, they were reluctant to part.

The heat in Shen Guining's body rose, and her breath was taken away.

Clothes were piled up on the ground in a mess.

Qu Yanci held her as they lay down, placing a pillow behind her lower back.

The kiss traveled down from the corner of his lips, leaving a trail of red plum blossoms on his skin.

His fingertips were long, like jade flutes, and Shen Guining knew it all too well. Her pupils became somewhat unfocused from the kiss, her eyes misty, and she subconsciously reached out to grab his hair.

Soft, short hair brushed against my palm, tickling me.

Throughout the entire process, Qu Yanci carefully avoided her injured right leg.

Even though she didn't actually do it, Shen Guining was still covered in sweat, as if she had been pulled out of the water.

Afterwards, Qu Yanci carried her to the bathroom to wash up.

Shen Guining had no strength and obediently let herself be manipulated.

Shen Guining missed the last performance before the Spring Festival due to a foot injury, and the news became a trending topic.

Many fans are very concerned about her situation.

How did you get injured so suddenly? Is it serious? I hope it won't affect your dancing in the future.

No wonder my wife wasn't on stage this time. Wishing her a speedy recovery and hoping she gets well soon!

I still want to see the performance live one more time, baby, hang in there and get well soon!

Take good care of yourself and get well soon. We'll be waiting for you to come back!

[I heard the theater is about to elect a new principal dancer. What a pity! If Shen Guining hadn't been injured, she would have had a very good chance of being chosen.]

Your health is the most important thing. Don't think too much about it. There will be other opportunities after you recover!

[I don't care, Ning Bao is my number one, you're the best!]

……

Since injuring her foot, Shen Guining has been trying her best to adjust her mindset, but every time she thinks about not being able to perform on stage for the next year, she feels disappointed and sad.

Seeing so many comforting and encouraging comments now, I feel a warm current flowing through my heart.

She posted a Weibo message: "Thank you everyone for your concern. I'm currently recovering at home and may be absent for a while. I'll let everyone know as soon as I'm fully recovered [heart emoji]"

Although the stitches have been removed, it will be at least five weeks before I can try to get out of bed and move around.

Qu Yanci spent all his time outside of work with her.

Shen Guining knew he was working very hard, so he took care of her personally every day, bathing and wiping her body, massaging her calf muscles, and taking her to the hospital for regular check-ups... taking care of everything.

He would occasionally decline invitations from friends to go out for a get-together.

Shen Guining didn't want to deprive him of his personal space because of her.

After he hung up the phone, she said, "Aci, you don't need to be with me all the time."

"It's just drinking and playing cards, nothing interesting." Qu Yanci thought for a moment, "Do you want to go? I'll take you with me?"

Shen Guining glanced down at her bandaged ankle. "Wouldn't it be a hassle for you if I went like this?"

Qu Yanci raised his hand to touch her cheek, staring directly into her eyes. "What's the problem?" Shen Guining opened her lips, but before she could speak, he said first, "You will never be a problem, remember that?"

Meeting his intense gaze, Shen Guining's heart skipped a beat. After a moment of silence, she softly replied, "Mm."

In the evening, Qu Yanci's friends held a birthday party at the club, booking several private rooms and offering a variety of entertainment options.

Liang Jingsong thought Qu Yanci wasn't coming today, knowing that he was completely preoccupied with his girlfriend at home.

Unexpectedly, they saw him carrying a girl as they approached from afar.

"I thought I was seeing things." Liang Jingsong greeted her with a smile, "Sister-in-law is here too. I didn't expect to have such a big reputation. It's an honor."

Seeing this, others also gathered around, each contributing their own comment.

"Why did Brother Yanci bring his wife out to play today?"

"My sister-in-law is even prettier than in the videos and photos."

"No wonder Brother Ci looked down on others before."

Holding Qu Yanci in her arms and surrounded by a group of people, Shen Guining felt a little embarrassed and shyly said, "Hello."

These young masters are usually arrogant in public, but they only joke around and laugh in private.

Liang Jingsong pushed the group aside, saying, "Don't crowd around here, come inside and sit down."

Qu Yanci carried Shen Guining into the private room and placed her on the sofa.

Someone asked, "What would you like to drink, sister-in-law? Juice or a soft drink?"

Qu Yanci answered for her, "Give her a glass of warm milk."

This attracted some teasing from several people.

"Ci-ge really knows how to take care of people."

"Otherwise, how would I have a girlfriend?"

"You should all learn something."

Su Yuchen and Jin Yuhan, a married couple, arrived later.

The bystanders egged them on, saying, "If you're late, you'll have to drink a penalty shot."

Jin Yuhan immediately said, "You can punish him, but don't punish me anymore."

Su Yuchen laughed in exasperation, "I was waiting for you to put on makeup, that's why I'm late, okay?"

Jin Yuhan rolled her eyes at him, "I didn't ask you to wait for me."

"You'll get angry again if I don't wait for you."

"Who's angry? You can wait or not, it's up to you."

Their banter was quite amusing, and everyone watched the spectacle while making light of it.

"Are you two sure you're newlyweds? Everyone else is all lovey-dovey, and you two are being so passionate."

There's a saying that goes, "Husbands and wives are like birds in the same forest; when disaster strikes, they fly away separately."

Remembering something, Liang Jingsong looked at the man sitting in the corner who hadn't spoken, "Ye Zeming, why didn't you bring your wife along?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Guining looked up.

She didn't even notice that Ye Zeming was there.

He tilted his head back and took a sip of his drink, his smile not reaching his eyes. "She made plans with a friend."

Su Yuchen sat down on the sofa, crossed his legs, and said, "Stop chatting and let's play cards."

"Brother Ci, wanna play?"

"Don't let him play anymore, he'll lose all his underwear in no time."

"Haha, then let your sister-in-law take over."

Shen Guining, holding her cup, had just taken a sip of milk when she said blankly, "I don't know how."

"That would be even better."

"It's very simple, you'll get the hang of it after playing a few rounds."

Jin Yuhan glanced at them and said, "Are you trying to bully the newbie?"

"Newbies have a protection period, what's there to be afraid of?"

"It's just for fun, winning or losing doesn't matter."

Qu Yanci asked Shen Guining for her opinion, "Shall we play?"

She hesitated, "I'll lose."

Qu Yanci chuckled lightly, not caring at all, "Losing is losing."

"Alright then." Shen Guining was bored anyway.
