Love belongs to the mountains and seas, I don't belong to you

Hearing that Mr. Xiang agreed to let him discuss business, Lin Cong became serious.

"I will definitely work hard, Mr. Xiang."

Hearing Lin Cong's serious tone, Xiang Shao turned his head to look at Lin Cong, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

While eating the smoothie, some bean paste got on the corner of Xiang Shao's mouth.

He turned his head and Lin Cong just happened to see it.

Lin Cong was very conflicted at this time.

Would it be too ambiguous to just wipe it off for him? Wouldn't it be better to just remind him?

Xiang Shao noticed that Lin Cong was hesitant to speak, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

"Um, the corner of your mouth..."

Lin Cong wanted to remind Xiang Shao, but a voice in her head reminded her - seize the opportunity!

So, she reached out and wiped the bean paste from Xiang Shao's mouth, "I rubbed the bean paste, and now it's gone."

The moment Xiang Shao was touched by Lin Cong's fingertips, he felt as if he had been electrocuted, and a subtle feeling rushed straight to his brain.

He took a deep breath, "Lin Cong, actually..."

Before Xiang Shao could continue, the power in the room suddenly went out.

The two people also fell silent because of the power outage.

In the pitch-black space, there was only the sound of two people breathing.

"Lin Cong, do you have your cell phone?" asked Xiang Shao.

"The phone is on the table."

"Okay, don't move, I'll get it."

"Why is there a power outage?"

"Occasionally there will be a shortage of power. I'll go out and take a look later."

Xiang Shao stood up to get his phone. When he first came in, he also put his phone on the table.

There is basically no light source in the mountainous area, and it is extremely dark during a power outage. Xiang Shao can only grope his way forward.

Just now, the two of them were eating smoothies on the bed, and now he could only walk over based on the direction in his mind.

Lin Cong waited patiently.

Suddenly there was a "bang", followed by Xiang Shao's voice, "hiss——"

Because he couldn't see clearly, Xiang Shao was tripped by the bench.

This time, the collision really hurt.

"What's wrong?" Lin Cong asked anxiously.

"It's okay, I just got bumped."

"I think I know where it is. I'll go find it!"

Without giving Xiang Shao a chance to refuse, Lin Cong got out of bed.

She walked forward barefoot.

"Lin Cong, wait, don't come down." Xiang Shao's words were obviously much slower.

"It's okay." Just as he finished speaking, Lin Cong shouted, "Ah!"

“? Ugh——” Xiang Shao made a sound of pain.

Just now, Lin Cong bumped into Xiang Shao.

Xiang Shao was standing on one leg after being knocked down by the bench.

He was hit by the forest and lost his balance instantly.

Both of them fell to the ground.

As luck would have it, Lin Cong just happened to fall on Xiang Shao.

At the moment he fell, Xiang Shao hugged Lin Cong as if by reflex.

So, Lin Cong was not knocked down.

Lin Cong's cry was out of fear, while Xiang Shao's cry was out of real pain.

Noticing the postures of the two people, Lin Cong wanted to get up.

Just as he was about to get up, Xiang Shao held him tightly.

This time, Lin Cong buried his head directly into Xiang Shao’s neck.

Lin Cong's heart began to beat faster, and she couldn't tell whether it was because of nervousness or something else.

Lin Cong felt that his lips were vaguely touching the skin on Xiang Shao's neck.

Of course Xiang Shao also felt it, because Lin Cong's lips were cold because he had just eaten a smoothie.

The slightly cool lips touching the skin of his neck not only made his neck itchy.

It made him feel even more itchy.

In this state, Lin Cong remembered it even more.

However, she moved slightly and moved closer to Xiang Shao.

"Don't move, be careful not to get hit."

Xiang Shao supported himself on the ground with one hand and tried to get up.

At this moment, the lights in the room suddenly lit up.

Xiang Shao stood up quickly and put Lin Cong aside.

He didn't even look at Lin Cong, picked up his phone, and said only one sentence: "I'll go check the circuit," and then left as if escaping.

During the whole process, Lin Cong didn't have time to react.

After a few seconds, Lin Cong sat up.

Touching his chest, Lin Cong could still feel his rapid heartbeat.

She couldn't help but ask herself: Why did I jump just now?

After calming down for a while, Lin Cong finally stood up.

She walked to the door and looked out, but it was quiet outside and there was no sign of Xiang Shao.

After calming down, Lin Cong felt a little confused: Why did Xiang Shao leave in such a hurry?

"Sister, are you okay?" An An came.

"It's okay, why are you here?"

"I was afraid you'd be scared, so I was at Brother Azhe's place just now, and I ran over here with a flashlight."

"Thank you, An An." Lin Cong said with a smile.

After more than half a year of getting along, Lin Cong and An An have become like real siblings.

"Sister, why are you being so polite to me..." An An scratched her head embarrassedly.

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Xiang bought some smoothies, come and try them."

Lin Cong found the smoothie he had stored and handed it to An An.

"Wow! Sister, is this the one you mentioned?" An An's eyes widened.

"Yes."

"Boss Xiang is amazing! You just mentioned the smoothie yesterday, and it's here today!"

"Try it quickly." Lin Cong said.

An An's words made Lin Cong think of Xiang Shao again. What was it that he wanted to say but didn't finish before the power outage?

……

After Xiang Shao left Lin Cong's room, he found an empty corner.

He sat down on the spot, breathing heavily.

He had indeed escaped just now.

Because his body actually had a physiological reaction.

At this moment, he clenched his fists, and the veins on his arms bulged.

He really wanted to suppress that evil thought.

However, it is simply impossible.

On my neck, I could still feel the softness of Lin Cong's lips.

There is also the fragrance on Lin Cong's body, which is a faint scent of sunflower.

The smell lingered around him, making him deeply immersed in it.

Before the power outage, the word "like" almost came out of my mouth.

Xiang Shao understood that he really fell in love with Lin Cong, even more than he had imagined.

But when he thought about what happened between Lin Cong and the Bai and Xia families, he hesitated.

He had no idea what Lin Cong was thinking.

Those little calculations make Lin Cong look a little silly, which is really cute.

However, if Lin Cong only used him as a backer to take revenge on those people, he would be unwilling and unable to do it.

However, if Lin Cong also has feelings for me, that would be another matter.

When they found her trapped in the mountains, her frail appearance and aggrieved expression really aroused his desire to protect her.

At that moment, he really wanted to use the strength of the Xiang family to cut off the Xia family's path.

Now that he had calmed down, he suddenly felt that he had been too impulsive.

Perhaps, if you really say "I like it", it will be exactly what Lin Cong wants.

Thinking of all this, Xiang Shao's fiery heart finally cooled down.

Taking a deep breath, he walked to the work area and began to check the wiring.

The forest factory is full of timber. If there is a problem with the line, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Xiang Shao reminded himself: Linchang is the most important. If you want to conquer the world, don't be tied down by love.

The idea was nice, but when he went back, Xiang Shao couldn't help but look at Lin Cong's room.

He quickly returned to the house and took a cold shower.
