Snowy Night Kiss

Chapter 74 Do you want to run away with me?

It was a fully enclosed dark-colored elevator with compartments separated from each other. After passing through a complex and long corridor, the receptionist escorted her to room 412.

Jian Yi pushed open the door, and for a moment everyone's attention was focused, and she suddenly felt a little annoyed.

I should change my clothes today.

There are simply too many people.

There are a few familiar faces, but more are strangers. Some of them can be vaguely matched with the photos in the financial newspapers. People who have only been seen in the reports suddenly appear before my eyes, giving me a sense of illusion as if I were dreaming.

Jin Yanchen sat in the center of the group and waved at her.

Jian Yi walked over with small steps, her canvas shoes landing silently on the marble floor, but her heart was pounding so hard that it almost jumped out.

She felt that she should say something, or even say hello, but Jin Yanchen patted the seat next to him and pulled her over with one hand.

This cocktail party has been going on for a long time. Regardless of status or etiquette, Jian Yi should not be the latecomer.

She pursed her lips, a little annoyed that she was only wearing the simplest jeans and canvas shoes today.

"Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Jin Yanchen thought she was talking about the cocktail party time. He chuckled, stretched out his arms to hug her, and his words were full of fearless doting on her.

"unimportant."

"It would be best if you came."

There was a moment of silence, and Jian Yi looked up into his eyes.

If she were asked to recall the past many years later, she would definitely say that this year was the best.

She was spoiled by Jin Yanchen to the point of being almost lawless, like the lightest bird, flying freely to every piece of the sky.

Jian Yi gently grasped his hand. The singing and dancing never stopped. The revolving notes seemed like messengers traveling through time and space. She recalled the first time she rushed into an unfamiliar cocktail party.

At that time, Jin Yanchen also sat high on the platform. The difference was that today she sat next to him.

"Today someone asked me what kind of boys I like. Guess what I answered."

Jin Yanchen raised his eyebrows and asked with interest:
"How?"

"I said I only like you."

"You gave me a special love, and I gave you a special love in return."

It was too noisy here, with cheers everywhere. She spoke quickly, as if she was afraid that he couldn't hear her. She raised her slender neck and leaned closer, breathing just within reach.

Jin Yanchen stared down at her, pinched her chin, and stroked her eyelids with his thumb. His expression was inquiring and unpredictable.

The place where his fingertips had rubbed felt itchy, and Jian Yi's eyelashes could be clearly trembling. She wanted to close her eyes, but she forced them open again so that he could see the truth inside.

It's funny, in such a place full of hypocrisy, she raised her head and wanted to talk to him about real feelings.

Jin Yanchen smiled and let her go.

He reached out for a cigar on the coffee table, slowly lit it and leaned against the back of the chair. The blue-gray smoke rose up and blurred. Jian Yi still sat there and looked at him with a smile.

The corners of his lips curled up as he made a random joke.

"It's so big, I'm afraid I can't pay it back."
-
The party lasted almost the entire night.

Jian Yi originally thought it was just a simple dinner party, but she didn't expect that she could not find a reason to help Jin Yanchen get out, and she got stuck in it herself.

After they finished playing two rounds of billiard, they were called to the chess and card room next door to play cards.

Jian Yi was so sleepy that she could hardly open her eyes. The hearts and spades were mixed together and she could hardly see the numbers engraved on them.

Jin Yanchen looked fine, shuffling and drawing the cards in a crisp and concise manner, and when it was time to deal the cards, he stuffed the cards into her hands. "You're not sober anymore, it's best to win money now."

He said this sentence simply to take time to sober up.

One advantage of playing cards with these rich young men is that you can feel at ease when you win money. It’s not that their card-playing skills are bad, it’s mainly because they just don’t take it seriously.

It's just like playing a game. You just throw out a card at random and even if you lose money, it's just a drop in the bucket.

The key point is, who is playing this game with?

Those present could see that Jian Yi's position was not ordinary, so they fed her cards in various ways. In the end, the weights piled up, and Jian Yi felt guilty holding the winnings in her hands.

Jin Yanchen tilted his head to look over at this time, leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Don't want to fight anymore?"

Jian Yi nodded slightly, and then wanted to ask himself if it would ruin the mood if he gave up at this time?

But Jin Yanchen threw down the cards and took her away in a clean and neat manner.

"Excuse me, I'm going to go see Mr. Huang."

Jian Yi looked up and asked which Mr. Huang it was, the financial tycoon Mr. Huang Peiyuan mentioned in the financial newspapers or the entertainment tycoon Mr. Huang Liang.

Jin Yanchen chuckled softly, held her wrist, and pushed open the door of the box.

Fresh air hits me in the face. How can this be the way to meet guests?
Jian Yi realized belatedly that Jin Yanchen had already taken her straight to the rooftop. It was then that she noticed that the view here was excellent. From the top of the building, she could overlook the mountains and rivers of Kyoto.

The mist is like smoke, passing through the tall buildings and overlapping bungalows. The morning sun shines through the cracks in all things. The moment the Tyndall effect appears, light can be found.

Seeing her surprised expression, Jin Yanchen propped up his arm and glanced at her, "How about it, do you want to run away with me?"

Jian Yi opened her mouth and subconsciously asked him, "Where are you escaping to?"

The old iron door was closed with a creaky sound, and the window that was not closed tightly was opened again. Jin Yanchen took out a bottle of brandy from somewhere. It had a sweet taste, and the moment the bottle cap was opened, Jian Yi could smell the scent of peach.

She also understood what Jin Yanchen meant at this time.

He meant that the party was too noisy, but Jian Yi didn't expect him to escape, take her with him and tell an insignificant lie, and then climb onto the cold rooftop in the early morning.

All the sounds were fading away. Jin Yanchen lowered his head, took a sip of wine, lifted her lips, and kissed her without hesitation.

The world is silent at this moment.

They were secretly in love with each other behind the backs of others.

Jian Yi closed her eyes and put her hands on his waist. The cashmere coat he was wearing was soft in texture, and when her palms pressed against his waist, it felt like skin contact. The pocket of the coat was slightly bulging, and before she could explore further, Jin Yanchen grabbed her hand.

His lips brushed across her cheek and then flowed behind her ear, and his breath was like fire, spraying in her ear.

"You're not paying attention when you kiss me?"

Jian Yi's breathing had already become disordered, her hands were bound by him and pushed to the top of her head. Her fingers, unable to struggle, pulled a string of black agarwood beads on his wrist. She gasped and said "no", while entangled in the kiss even more deeply.

Jin Yanchen just smiled. He was a master of flirting. He took a gradual approach and whispered to her.

"Then tell me what the wine tasted like?"

I can't stand his tone.

If there really is a paradise on earth, Jian Yi would have already fallen into it.

She licked her lower lip subconsciously: "Peach flavor."

She seemed to be tasting it seriously. Jin Yanchen's eyes darkened and he smiled softly in her ear, "Really... Then let me try it."
