Deep Fog Kiss

The penthouse suite was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

The faint footsteps were particularly clear.

Yin Ming brought a female doctor and her assistant over, and they went into the bedroom, leaving the door slightly ajar.

In the extremely spacious living room, the man's tall figure stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

Outside the window, the colorful night view of the city center unfolds before your eyes, like a giant backdrop.

He lit a cigarette, and as the embers flickered and the smoke swirled, his gaze at the night scene was dark and unfathomable.

The faint scent of oranges seemed to linger on his fingertips, and the soft, warm feeling he had just experienced on his body had not yet dissipated.

As she put the cigarette in her mouth with her slender fingertips, her fingertips lightly brushed against her lips.

Her eyes were lowered, glistening and moist, with a barely perceptible pale red hue, and a sweet fragrance emanated from them.

It smells like her lipstick.

He slowly curved his lips into a smile. Two years had passed, and she was still so reckless and disregarded the consequences.

They take advantage of their boldness to act recklessly.

But she can't bear the consequences, and she'll cry and say she regrets it, just like she did back then.

Gu Zhi took a deep drag of his cigarette, suppressing the irritation in his chest.

This not-so-gentle kiss was meant to teach her a lesson.

Let's teach her a lesson about her arrogant and ignorant nature.

Footsteps sounded behind me.

"Mr. Gu."

Gu Zhishen turned around, and the female doctor stepped forward, speaking very respectfully, "I have already performed a physical examination on Miss Jiang. Miss Jiang has not been given any medication, but there is a small amount of anesthetic in her body."

Gu Zhishen frowned slightly, just as he had guessed.

She was definitely acting strangely, but it wasn't because of that kind of medicine.

The real key is to leverage the effects of medication.

Her acting skills are still too raw.

"Anesthetic?" he asked in a low voice. "What effects will it have?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Gu. Ms. Jiang herself must have taken measures, so the concentration of the anesthetic she inhaled was not high. She may feel a little dizzy and weak."

The doctor added, "I injected Ms. Jiang with a diluted medication. She should drink plenty of water and rest well. It will be metabolized in three hours."

Gu Zhishen nodded slightly and looked at Yin Ming, "To Dr. Li."

......

In the room, Jiang Li leaned against the headboard.

Apart from some swelling and pain at the injection site and a slight dizziness, I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere else.

Footsteps came from the doorway, and Jiang Li looked up.

The tall man entered the room.

The dark tie had been torn off, the collar was slightly open, and the sexy outline of the Adam's apple was on full display.

Gu Zhishen pulled up a sofa chair and sat down on the edge of the bed, crossing his long legs. His deep pupils fell on Jiang Li's face with a scrutinizing gaze.

In the quiet room, Jiang Li smelled the strong scent of tobacco in the air.

In Jiang Li's memory, Gu Zhishen rarely smoked in front of her. Occasionally, when she caught him smoking, he would immediately put out the cigarette.

Even afterward, he would go to the balcony to light a cigarette.

The only time he got really angry was when he smoked one cigarette after another in front of her.

Clearly, he hadn't reached that level yet.

"Uncle."

Jiang Li smiled and greeted them, as if nothing had happened.

Gu Zhishen stared at her, finding it amusing.

Just a moment ago she was recklessly calling his name, but now she's treating him like an elder.

He began, "Let's talk."

Jiang Li felt a little uneasy looking at his serious expression.

He wondered to himself if he had gone too far with what he had just done.

She was inwardly terrified, but outwardly she maintained the appearance of a good student and obedient girl.

Jiang Li nodded seriously, "Uncle, please speak."

Gu Zhishen stared intently at Jiang Li, his scrutinizing gaze unwavering. He cut to the chase, asking, "What's your plan tonight?"

His voice was deep and cold, sending chills down one's spine.

Jiang Li looked up and met his gaze. His cold, sharp eyes made her gasp.

"The anesthetic, he escaped from Tang's room, had a pretty exciting time." He looked at Jiang Li, "He deliberately said he was drunk and asked Gu Rou for help. He knew Regalia Club was my territory, and was sure I would come looking for you."

"You put on such a grand show, and then what?" Gu Zhishen exposed her little trick, word by word, "You're playing me?"

If he doesn't come, how does she plan to get away?

Or was he just a pawn in her joke?

"Jiang Li," he said coldly, addressing her by her full name, "you've really grown wings."

He was as cold as an iceberg that had never melted in a thousand years, exuding a chilling aura.

Jiang Li stared into his deep-set eyes and asked, "And what about you?"

"You knew I was acting, but you still came to see me." Her eyes were slightly red, and she gently curved her lips into a smile. "Uncle, you were worried about me too, weren't you?"

After a two-second eye contact, Gu Zhishen let out a soft laugh. "If someone takes my cat, I'll hold them accountable, let alone a person."

Jiang Li's fingertips trembled. In his heart, she was just like a pet he kept.

She gave a slight smirk. "You're no longer my guardian. You have no obligation to be."

The man laughed angrily, "You mean I'm meddling in other people's business?"

Jiang Li dared not meet his gaze, lowered her eyes, and felt wronged.

It wasn't that she thought he was too controlling; she actually wished Gu Zhishen would keep an eye on her and watch over her all the time.

She just needed a status to be controlled.

He refused to give me this identity two years ago, and he still refuses to give it to me two years later.

Besides, he already promised his great-grandmother he would get married, so how could he still interfere with her?

Gu Zhishen didn't know what she was thinking, so he nodded and said, "Okay."

He got up and left the bedroom without looking back.

Jiang Li watched his retreating figure disappear through the door, and her eyes quietly reddened.

The atmosphere instantly plummeted to freezing point, and the huge suite fell into complete silence.

Jiang Li sat blankly on the bed, only hearing her own breathing, which went from rapid and heavy to even and gentle.

She tiptoed out of bed, opened the bedroom door, and quietly walked out.

A deep, clear male voice came from the living room, occasionally uttering an "hmm," as if he were talking to someone.

Jiang Li suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he walked away without getting angry.

She walked slowly into the living room and caught a glimpse of the man's tall figure through the floor-to-ceiling window.

He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding his phone, seemingly making a call, but mostly just listening to the other person.

Hearing a faint sound, Gu Zhishen turned around, phone in hand, and saw the girl who had quietly appeared behind him. Her lips curved into a beautiful smile, and her eyes were bright.

She had a docile and ingratiating look on her face.

Gu Zhishen was on the phone, holding a transparent glass that was more than half full of water.

His gaze shifted downwards, sweeping over her smooth, slender, and shapely calves, and landing on her bare feet as she walked towards him on the carpet, her bright little face tilted up.

Gu Zhishen glanced at her and casually handed her the water glass he was holding.

Seeing that he was on the phone, Jiang Li didn't say anything and obediently took the water glass with both hands.

The water temperature is just right, neither too hot nor too cold, as it seeps through the cup walls.

"I drank it."

Gu Zhishen's tone was icy, like a command.

Jiang Li nodded like a good student and drank a big gulp of warm water.

After Gu Zhishen finished his call, he put away his phone and effortlessly placed her on the wine cabinet next to him, pinching her slender waist.

Jiang Li held the water glass in both hands and stared at the man's cold and stern face.

"If you think I'm meddling too much, then you should know better."

The man's broad palm naturally tested the temperature of her bare toes; they were slightly cool.

He frowned slightly, grabbed a blanket from a nearby spot, and tossed it onto her lap.

Jiang Li then suddenly realized.

He remembered that if her feet got cold, it would hurt a lot when she had her period.

When she lived with him in Beishan Villa, he would always watch her put on her shoes and socks.

She is occasionally disobedient and likes to run around barefoot.

When he was in excruciating pain, he would coldly say, "Serves you right."

But while he was being stubborn, he would rub her stomach.

The warmth of his palm was comforting and soothing, easing her pain.

It turns out he still remembered this detail.

Jiang Li held her water glass, tilted her head back, and looked at the man with a smile.

"sorry."
