Chapter 2043: Strange Atmosphere

“Haven’t you made it clear that this incident has nothing to do with your family? Ding Haobei was the one who did it.” Yu Dong confirmed that the room was safe again before looking at Ding Junqi.

Ding Junqi looked at the place where the woman had disappeared. “With someone dead, how can we claim that everything’s fine?”

As Ding Junqi spoke, the glint in his eyes darkened.

At the end of the day, the Ding family could not wash their hands clean off of this matter. If Ding Junqi returned without letting Eldest Uncle take over the company, perhaps…

Ding Junqi stopped talking, but Yu Dong could understand where he was coming from. In the end, Yu Dong just patted Ding Junqi’s shoulder. “I’ll handle this. I won’t let her be pursued.”

Ding Junqi nodded. When this farce ended, Mu Qi was the last to leave. However, before she left, she gave Le Tian a mocking look before turning to leave.

Le Tian did not miss the look in her eyes. Although she did not know what it meant, Le Tian knew it was definitely not a good one.

Ding Junqi collapsed onto the sofa and started ma.s.saging his forehead.

Le Tian peered at him. “How did you know someone was in Xin Ya’s room?”

“I didn’t. What I did was that I verified it,” Ding Junqi said as he looked at Le Tian. “Were you worried about me just now?”

Le Tian, “…”

No!

Le Tian rolled her eyes as Ding Junqi pulled her into his lap. “I heard you knocking on Xin Ya’s door just now. I feel like the entire floor heard you. If you weren’t worried, what else could it be?”

“I… I’m just afraid that Yuejia will ask me for his father,” Le Tian retorted.

Ding Junqi pressed his head against Le Tian’s neck. No one knew if he was smiling or something else.

“What are you doing?” Le Tian frowned, but she could not move.

“You’re quite cute when you’re not acting the same way as what you say,” Ding Junqi said as he pinched her chin and forced her to turn around to look at him. “Le Tian, I realized that I’ve gotten bewitched by you. What should I do?” As he spoke, his lips landed on Le Tian’s neck. “Will you try to break this curse?”

Hey hey hey—

He should not take advantage of their current situation!

Le Tian wanted to push the man under her because it felt like the magnetic field between them was completely off today, especially Ding Junqi. He would not touch her so frequently in the past.

The kiss that landed on her neck felt a little hot. Le Tian bit her lower lip and grabbed the hand that was slowly moving up from her waist.

“Ding Junqi—”

The voice that slipped out from her mouth was soft. This was a voice that she was not familiar with. That could not be right.

Le Tian pursed her lips tightly. She started to feel her strength leaving her hands.

“Le Tian, break this curse,” Ding Junqi whispered into her ear. His hot breath landed on her ear and burned straight into her heart.

“Do you know what I was thinking when that woman attempted to cut me down?” Ding Junqi asked. These words penetrated Le Tian’s ears.

Le Tian pursed her lips tightly, unwilling to utter a single word.

“I believe that I must’ve loved you very much. So much that even after losing that memory, I still managed to find you. In that memory, we must be in love. Le Tian, do you believe me?” Ding Junqi said slowly. His voice was like an elegant violin, playing a melodious tune. “If this is the end of my life, I’m willing to leave this world with that knowledge.”

“No—” When Le Tian heard that, she suddenly turned around and covered his lips with her hand. They just had a brush with death, and she did not want to hear the word ‘death’ again.

Le Tian’s concern for him made Ding Junqi laugh once again. He reached out to hold Le Tian’s hand that was covering his lips. His eyes were seeping with an overwhelming flood of affection.
