I Am Rich

60

Everytime time she came out from the set, Guan Zhiyi always turned into a sleepyhead, her sleeping schedule would become especially long. Thus, despite her going to sleep so early yesterday, she still has not woken up at 10 o'clock the next day.

Qi Chengyan has always been an early riser, however today, when he woke up and saw the person in his embrace, his desire to get out of bed was completely extinguished.

He instead hugged while staring at her before falling back asleep without him even realising it.

Later, he got woken up because someone had kicked him in the thigh. Although it wasn't very strong, Qi Chengyan was a light sleeper so such things would make him open his eyes.

At this time, the person who was originally sleeping in his embrace has gone lying down farther away. She was in almost horizontal position by now, with her head on the edge of the bed and her feet on top of his body.

She stretched her back, seemingly to be waking up from her sleep. Qi Chengyan hooked his lips, reached out his hands to grasp her ankle.

The first thing Guan Zhiyi did after waking up was to reach for her phone on the bedside table, but after stretching out her hand and caressing the air for a while, she still couldn't find the phone. When she opened her eyes and looked around, she remembered that she did not sleep in her room last night.

Yesterday she slept together with Qi Chengyan. She was too sleepy to return to her room and fell back asleep without saying another word to him......

"You're up?" All of a sudden, a voice came.

Guan Zhiyi turned her head to look, huh? There's no one here?

"Over here." Someone pulled her leg, his words were filled with a faint laughter, "Move back yourself."

Guan Zhiyi glanced over towards the sound source and only then did she discover that she was sleeping in a very unbridled position. At once, she froze for a moment then pulled up the quilt to cover half of her face,"I usually sleep alone......"

She was used to occupying a large bed all by herself while sleeping, so her sleep has always been messy.

Qi Chengyan laughed, "I got it, you come here."

Guan Zhiyi slowly moved over and lay on her pillow, staring at him with a pair of eyes from under the quilt,"Don't you have to go to work today?"

"At first, I was going to go."

"Then what?"

"Then I thought you were home by yourself and am not feeling at ease, so I didn't go."

"How can you do this?" Guan Zhiyi said, "You don't have to worry about me, I'll be fine at home by myself. Y-you can come back in the evening."

These words sounded a bit like they were said by his little wife.

Thus, if Qi Chengyan still had some thoughts about going to work, then just now every little bit of it has vanished. His heart is softened into pieces, all he wanted to do now was just to hold this person in his embrace. 

And the next second he really did do so, he hugged her, resting his jaw on the top of her hair while saying, "Are you hungry?"

Guan Zhiyi leaned against his chest, finding that this felt very magical, they actually can wake up in the same bed ah......as if they were a married couple.

She smiled secretly and clutching the clothes on his chest tightly, reluctant to let go, "A little."

"Then shall we get up and go downstairs to eat?"

"But yesterday I told auntie that she didn't have to come today either."

Qi Chengyan: "I'll cook."

"Huh?" Guan Zhiyi looked up at him in surprise, "You were serious about what you said yesterday?"

"You don't have faith in me?"

Guan Zhiyi: "It's not like that...then should I taste it?"

After saying that, her gaze suddenly fell and fixed upon his chin, watching attentively at him, then rubbing her forehead from below.

Not understanding the reason why, Qi Chengyan simply just watched as the little girl who had finished rubbing touched her forehead, looked genuinely silly,"You seem to have grown a little beard, it's a little itchy."

"Did you get stabbed?"

"Yeah, do you want me to help you shave later!"

She suddenly felt excited.

Seeing her happy spirit, Qi Chengyan said with a smile, "Can you?"

"I've never done it before," Guan Zhiyi said enthusiastically, "But I have seen my brother do it. It's rather simple, isn't it just applying a layer of white bubbles then shaving it."

"Why doesn't it sound very reliable?"

"Says who?" Guan Zhiyi touched his chin,"I'm sure I will be really good at it."

Afterwards, the two got out of the bed and went to the bathroom to wash up. When they finished washing face and rinsing mouth, Qi Chengyan really handed her the razor and actually let the novice hold it to work on his face.

Seeing her arduously raising her head, Qi Chengyan directly picked her up and put her to sit on the washstand, then propping both of his hands on her sides, bending his body closer to her.

"It's easier this way, isn't it?"

Guan Zhiyi held his head,"Yes!"

Qi Chengyan smiled indulgently,"Well, then you can start having fun."

Guan Zhiyi didn't tell him that actually the reason why she wanted to help him shave was because she has watched too many movies. And every time she watched this kind of scene before, she always felt those couples were very sweet, so she wanted to try it herself.

"Hiss......"

Guan Zhiyi abruptly stopped, saying nervously, "Am I hurting you? Did you get cut?!"

The corners of Qi Chengyan's mouth lifted slightly, "No, I just want to scares you."

"You be quiet," said Guan Zhiyi, glaring at him.

On the next one, she shaved more carefully, afraid of hurting him.

She was so focused, her whole body was all tense, in contrast with Qi Chengyan who is very laid-back. It was just that when he saw the little girl he likes this close, his heart inevitably started to get restless, wanting to do something bad.

"Is it done?"

Guan Zhiyi: "Not yet."

A moment later.

Qi Chengyan: "Is it almost done?"

Guan Zhiyi shook her head,"Hold on."

Another moment passed.

Qi Chengyan: "What about now?"

Guan Zhiyi gave him a quick look, "Almost ......Aiya, why are you so impatient."

Qi Chengyan slightly tilted his head, faintly said, "I want to kiss you."

Guan Zhiyi's hands paused, and after a moment of silence, she said,"......brother don't tempt me now."

"Hm?"

Guan Zhiyi forced herself to take her eyes off his lips and said conscientiously, "You can kiss after shaving."

"Can't we discuss about it first?"

"No."

"Fine, then you hurry up."

Guan Zhiyi nodded, holding her breath, and finally finished the last few strokes neatly.

"It's done, you can wash it." said Guan Zhiyi as she let out a sigh of relief.

Qi Chengyan: "Um."

After washing and wiping it dry, Qi Chengyan returned to stand in front of her.

Guan Zhiyi held out her hand to stroke his chin, "As expected of me, I'm good at it."

But Qi Chengyan nevertheless directly lowered his head to seek her lips,"Can I kiss now?"

Guan Zhiyi froze,"......Then I'll go down first."

"No need, just stay there."

As he said this, he bowed his head and kissed her lips.

It's the taste of peppermint.....was her only thought in a muddleheaded state as her and his lips clung together.

She always thought that this person would change during intimate moments. He was usually gentle and indulgent to her, but when kissing, he exuded very apparent fragments of aggressiveness and dominance.

At this time, because of the kiss, she had to continuously lean backwards, he was intensely pressing her down, and both of her hands were all sore from supporting her body.

"Wait…."

Qi Chengyan, who was not willing to stop, took her by the waist and helped her up, bringing her into his embrace, "Is this more comfortable?"

Guan Zhiyi clasped his waist tightly. At the moment, such a question combined with this kind of position made her face blushing red, "Let me go down first…"

Qi Chengyan almost indulged her at the sight of her pitiful appearance, he then coaxed, "Just one moment."

"....then are you still going to cook, I'm hungry."

Qi Chengyan came back to his senses, only then did he remember that he had not fed this little girl, "Alright, I'll cook right away......"

With that, he kissed her for another while, feeling reluctant to part.

Guan Zhiyi didn't know how other people first started their relationship, but she knew that ever since they established their relationship, she felt like she was constantly drowning in honey.

It was tenacious and filled with joy.

In fact, she loved to stick around him before, however, in comparison to now, she realised that such clinginess was actually nothing, she was merely standing next to him, not comparable to being able to hold him nor equal to the happiness when kissing him.

A few moments later, the two people finally managed to got out of the bathroom.

When Cheng Yan went to the kitchen, Guan Zhiyi also followed in, watching from the side while occasionally lending a hand to wash the vegetables.

Qi Chengyan was much better than she previously thought, she had never seen him going to the kitchen, but the things he made were surprisingly decent.

"I just saw a couple of cars drive past, it seems to go next door." While eating, Guan Zhiyi said.

Qi Chengyan nodded,"Your brother's house has been renovated for some time now, I suppose these days he's going to gradually move some furniture in."

"...he won't be there, will he?

"I have never seen him come since the renovation started."

Guan Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief, "That's right, he doesn't like to deal with such trivial matters, he would not come until the house is liveable. Anyway, is he planning to move out?"

"Probably."

"Don't tell me that he has a girlfriend?" Guan Zhiyi's eyes lit up, "It must be, it's not convenient to bring his girlfriend back home, while he can do whatever he wants outside."

Just as the words left her mouth, she saw Qi Chengyan looking at her meaningfully.

"…I'm not implying you."

"Oh?"

"Really…"

The two of them continued to eat and chat, while at the same time, people next door were moving things back and forth, before finally putting everything in their place.

"What about those ornaments that I want to put on this wall?" In the living room, a man stood in the centre and asked.

The staff on the side promptly explained, "President Guan, those things are fragile and valuable, so we didn't bring them together in this batch, but you can be rest assured that they will be delivered before seven o'clock tonight."

"Ok."

The decorations and equipment in the house were pretty much done, all the daily necessities were also complete, it was already doable to directly move in.

Guan Yuanbai walked around and said, "It's not bad."

The staff members were waiting cautiously by the side. From the start till now everything in this house was handled by them, and for so long the house owner has never appeared, so this unexpected arrival inevitably made them feel nervous, fearing that something might not be to his liking.

Everyone was relieved to hear that Guan Yuanbai was not nitpicking things.

Guan Yuanbai said, "Then you guys continue to deal with the details, I'll just take a look."

"Eh, okay."

Guan Yuanbai came to see this house because he had nothing to do today. After all, if he moved out he probably would live here afterwards.

When he finished looking around his house, it was right at mealtime, hence Guan Yuanbai left the house and went next door.

Next door was Qi Chengyan's house. He had been to his house before and knew the passcode. So he just pressed the combination lock while making a call to him.

At that time, Qi Chengyan and Guan Zhiyi, who didn't have any idea about the situation, had just finished eating, one was washing strawberries in the kitchen, and the other was in the living room doing a favour to find a movie that the person inside talked about.

Buzz---

The phone on the coffee table vibrated.

Qi Chengyan lowered his eyes, checking the caller ID before picking it up,"Yuan Bai."

"You're home?"

"Yes," said Qi Chengyan, glancing toward the kitchen. "Do you have any free time in the next two day?"

"What's the matter?"

"There's something I want to tell you."

"What is it? You can just say it directly now, I'm here."

"...Huh?"

"I've come to see how the renovation of that house of mine goings-on."

Qi Chengyan paused slightly, "So you're at your house now?"

"No."

"Then where--"

--Are you now?

The last three words were swallowed back into his throat when Qi Chengyan saw a person coming in from the corridor. Because there was no need to ask anymore, Guan Yuanbai was not in his own house, but in Qi Chengyan's home.

As Guan Yuanbai saw Qi Chengyan sitting in the living room he directly hung up the call and walked towards him, "You ......"

"I have washed the strawberries ~" before Guan Yuanbai could speak, he saw a figure running out of the kitchen, straight to Qi Chengyan who was sitting on the sofa,"It's so sweet, really sweet ah."

Guan Zhiyi took a bite, and naturally passed the remaining of the strawberry to Qi Chengyan's mouth,"Try it."

Qi Chengyan coughed lightly, pulled her hand down, seeing a mysterious light of retribution as he said, "Since you're here, then it's just right."

Just right? Just right for what?

Guan Yuanbai did not understand, he just stared at the strawberry that Guan Zhiyi had bitten.

At this very moment, his first thought was: When did this fellow come back?

His second thought was: Why is she here and not home?

The third thought was: How can she pass the food she has eaten to others? Did she have no manners?

Several thoughts collided haphazardly in his head and at last turned into one sentence.

"Why are you here?"
