Chapter 349: Never Give Up
n. Just a simple strike had almost depleted all his Yang Qi, leaving him dizzy and lightheaded, with weak limbs, a churning feeling in his chest, and an urge to vomit. 。He knelt on one knee, gasping f...This is... Tong Lei's little tongue!
Tian was stunned, habitually going to suck on that fragrant and soft tongue, but Tonglei quickly retracted her tongue, leaving only a sweetness in his mouth.
He opened his eyes and saw Tong Lei's round face right in front of him. It was red, like it had been smeared with rouge, so red it looked like it would bleed.
“You’re being stubborn. I didn’t say you could open your eyes yet.” Seeing Xiang Tian open his eyes, Tong Lei blushed, her two fair hands covering Xiang Tian's eyes as she jumped up and down saying.
A violent beat surged in Tian Xin's heart, he desperately wanted to hold this adorable girl in his arms and savor her sweet little mouth.
He knew Tong Lei definitely wouldn't refuse. She was like a lamb that walked right into his trap, willingly offering herself to him. As long as he wanted, she could be devoured completely right now.
But he still gave up on the idea, grabbed Tong Lei's hand, pulled it down, and smiled: "Well, is this the gift you're giving me"
"Do you like it" Tong Lei asked in a low voice, her eyes sparkling as she stared intently at Xiang Tian, waiting for his reply.
Chewing thoughtfully at the sky, she seemed to savor it still. "Hm, not bad. A touch more honey and it'd be even sweeter."
"Oh, you big rascal! I'm not something to eat," Tong Lei cried out, pushing Xiang Tian away and then flattening her right hand in front of him. "Here, this is your gift."
She was holding a yellow sachet in her hand, embroidered with a golden dragon. It looked very delicate.
"What's this" Xiang Tian asked, taking it over.
Here's the amulet I got from the temple last time I went there. I asked for an extra one, so I'll give it to you.
He smiled mischievously and said, "I'll keep the amulet. Let's just throw this sachet away, it's too ugly."
"You dare!" Tong Lei pouted, her face unhappy. "If you don't like it, just give it back to me! Good intentions are treated as liver and lungs, Humph!"
Of course, he was teasing her. There was an 80% chance that this sachet was made by her today. When he took hold of Tong Lei’s left hand and examined it closely, as he expected, there were many needle pricks on her fingers.
Tong Lei saw that her little secret had been discovered by Xiang Tian, and she was so embarrassed that she wanted to withdraw her hand. But Xiang Tian held on tightly, and she couldn't pull it back at all. She could only turn her head away from him and avoid his gaze, her face turning red again.
Looking up at those red prick marks, his heart suddenly ached. He could imagine how hard she must have worked, her hands pricked and bleeding as she made these sachets for him.
On the pale fingers, red needle pricks were clearly visible, at least twenty of them, densely packed. Seeing them, Xiangtian seemed to feel the piercing pain again and again.
His heart ached with her.
Such a good girl!
"Does it still hurt" he asked softly, holding onto Tong Lei's hand.
Tong Lei nodded, then shook her head, still too afraid to look up at the sky.
Suddenly, she turned her head in surprise, watching him put his finger into his mouth and lick it. She could even feel the tip of his tongue...
The True Dragon Qi quietly circulated, and the tiny needles on Tong Lei's fingers disappeared without a trace. Xiang Tian gently kissed Tong Lei's back of her hand and smiled, saying, "You're such a silly girl."
Tong Lei's eyes suddenly seemed to fill with a pool of cool water, becoming moist and glistening. Her small chest heaved violently up and down, and then, in her astonished gaze directed upwards, she flung herself into his arms, hugging him tightly, as if using all her strength.
After a while, she let go of looking at the sky and her face was flushed. She tilted her head up to look at him.
After hesitating for a moment, she seemed to finally gather her courage and stammered, "I... Can I be your girlfriend"
As soon as she finished speaking, her face grew even redder.
Xiang Tian was stunned. He didn't expect this girl to confess to him at this time.
He was completely unprepared and didn't know how to respond.
But Tong Lei kept looking up at him, her shy yet ardent eyes filled with anticipation.
He suddenly let out a sigh, holding onto Tong Lei's cheeks with a soft smile. "Tongtong, you're beautiful and cute. I really like you. But—"
A hand suddenly covered his mouth, Tong Lei shaking her head incessantly, "Don't say anymore, please don't say anything more."
She turned her head and rushed to the bed, wrapping herself tightly in the blanket, whimpers of sobbing continuously coming from inside...
Half an hour later, she went downstairs but Tong Lei still hadn't come down.
He took out the yellow sachet in front of everyone and smiled, "This was given to me by Tongtong. I saw she was drunk, so I didn't let her come down anymore."
Several people passed around the sachet and looked at it. Li Hui and Yu Manni praised Tong Lei's handicrafts endlessly. After a lively meal and two cups of tea, Xiang Tian and Yu Manni said goodbye to the Xie family and left.
The car drove smoothly onto the road, and after a while, Mani suddenly stopped the car on the roadside.
She turned her head to look at him, a half-smile playing on her lips. "Are you really only given a sachet by Tongtong"
After coming down from the second floor, Xiangtian's mood hadn't been good. Hearing Yu Manni ask, he sighed and told her everything that had just happened.
"You just rejected her like that" Upon hearing his words, Yu Manni was somewhat surprised, and also a little pleased, "No regrets"
He smiled gently at her and grasped her hand tightly. "Tongtong is indeed a good girl, but I already have you both. That's enough for me. I can't possibly keep all the good girls in the world to myself, can I"
Then Manny rolled her eyes, retracted her hand, and continued driving.
"You haven't taken enough yet, have you Are you just holding back today because you see me"
"Well, you don't believe me, do you Just wait until I get back! You'll see what I can do to you!" Xiang Tian said angrily.
Thank you.
Tong Lei's mother came down from the second floor. Xie Jiaming put down the newspaper in his hand and looked up at her.
Tong Lei's mother shook her head and sighed, sitting down beside him: "That girl was heartbroken after being rejected by Xia Tian. It's a pity, it seems Tong Tong and Xia Tian are just not meant to be."
Xie Jiaming shook his head with a smile, Tong Lei's mother asked in surprise, "Why are you smiling"
"To give up after just one refusal, do you think that's our little Tongtong's style" Xie Jiaming quietly elbowed his wife beside him and nodded towards the upstairs.
Tong Lei's mother looked up and saw that Tong Lei's room door was slightly ajar. The girl must have been eavesdropping on their conversation.
"What do you think she'll do" Tong Lei's mother asked Xie Jia Ming intentionally.
"She's definitely the kind of person who gets stronger when faced with challenges, always moving forward without hesitation. Don't you remember This girl is always striving for excellence, whether it's in her studies or work."
"Well, you make a good point. I just don't know if Tongtong can pull herself together!" Tonglei's mother finished speaking and glanced upstairs. That crack in the door quietly shut.
She looked at Xie Jiaming, and they both smiled.
On the second floor, Tong Lei leaned against the door, her round face still bearing two streaks of tears, and her eyes were swollen red from crying.
She walked to the dressing table and looked at herself in the mirror. After a long time, she pouted and said, "Tongtong, you can't give up, you can't admit defeat, you are the best, you can definitely do it!"
After she finished speaking, she took out her phone, hesitated for a moment, and sent a text message to Xiang Tian. As soon as the message was sent successfully, she covered her burning face with both hands, her ears turning red.
At this moment, Xiang Tian was mercilessly "disciplining" Yu Manni. The sound of fierce impacts and blood-pumping chants echoed non-stop.
Beep, beep!
"Hurry... hurry and get the phone!"
On the bed, Yu Manni was placed in an extremely humiliating position and being harshly "disciplined" by him. She was already at her limit and pleaded with Tian to spare her.
He grinned at the ceiling and temporarily let her go. He reached over to the bedside table for his phone, opened it, and checked his messages. Only one from Tong Lei: "Never giving up!"
He was taken aback, never expecting that the little girl would be so determined.
Just then, a small, white hand suddenly reached out and snatched the phone from his grasp.
After Manni read the text message, she suddenly giggled with delight and quickly typed a reply on her phone to Tong Lei.
"Oh, what did you reply to her"
When Tian took her phone back into her hand, the message had already been deleted by You Manni. There was no way to know what she replied to Tong Lei. softly, "Silly girl, don't worry, no matter what you become, I'll still love you."He was telling the truth, he did like Xiaojiao, but he also liked Xie Xintong. In fact, even he himself couldn't tell...
