Chapter 1689: He Didn’t Contact Her Anymore
Xiao Ying pulled Long Ming’s sleeve and shook her head. “Forget it. It’s not easy for the boss to do business. I only want that little teddy.”
Long Ming had only intended on making Xiao Ying happy by winning the prize anyway.
Since she only wanted a Teddy, he naturally didn’t say anything.
Long Ming asked the boss to only take a teddy down and the boss was extremely grateful. “Miss, it’s your fortune to have such a boyfriend! I’ve set up my stall for so many years, but I’ve never seen a man who dotes on his girlfriend so much.”
Xiao Ying took the teddy from her boss and smiled, saying nothing.
The two of them walked forward and when Xiao Ying saw someone selling cotton candy, she could not help but take another look.
Long Ming stopped and bought cotton candy.
Xiao Ying sat on a grassy slope and Long Ming came over, passing her the cotton candy.
Xiao Ying was surprised. “Why did you buy this for me? I’m not a child.” Although she said that, she took the cotton candy.
Long Ming’s sat beside Xiao Ying.
Xiao Ying took a bite of the cotton candy, a smile on her lips. “It’s so sweet.” Seeming to have thought of something, she said softly, “When we were young, our training was very tough. There was once when we had to go to Wolf Mountain for training. We passed by the streets in a car and saw that there were people selling cotton candy. I really wanted to eat one, so I lied that I needed to go to the washroom and secretly went to buy one. However, I was found out before I could even take a bite. To punish me, I was forced to drink goldthread herb for a month.”
She did not know if it was because she was thinking of the taste of the goldthread, but Xiao Ying felt a bitter taste in her mouth. “After that, I never wanted to eat cotton candy anymore. Since I was young, I only knew the taste of bitterness and not sweetness.”
Long Ming stared at Xiao Ying. She lowered her long eyelashes, casting two small shadows on her exquisite face, a bitter smile on her lips.
“I don’t dare to hope for sweetness anymore.”
Long Ming’s tall and cold body moved closer to Xiao Ying. His slender arm wrapped around her thin shoulders.
Xiao Ying glanced sideways at Long Ming, who was also looking at her. Although they were surrounded by the noisy amusement park, there was only each other in their eyes.
The orange light fell on him like a warm halo. She looked at his face as he slowly approached her. Her heart fluttered and in her panic, she placed the cotton candy between them.
Long Ming was stuffed with cotton candy.
He did not have a sweet tooth, but what she had eaten tasted exceptionally sweet.
A faint smile appeared on his thin lips.
He was a man who rarely smiled. His facial features were cold and his facial features were well-defined. He had a natural king-like aura. Such a man would make people feel cold and distant.
But once he smiled, he was like a pure and defenseless big boy.
Seeing him like this, Xiao Ying felt like she was looking at a young Long Ming again. She could not help but smile.
…
That night, the two of them got on surprisingly well.
After leaving the park, she returned to the villa while he returned to the hotel.
When she came out of the shower, she received a message from him. “Good night.”
Xiao Ying lay on the pillow and stared at the message for a long time.
In the past, she had never thought that a person like her could find a place in the heart of others.
She did not dare to hope that she could fall in love like an ordinary girl.
But tonight, she actually felt like she was in love. There had been no intimacy, but it had still made her heart flutter.
…
The next day.
Long Ming was returning to the country and he woke up early in the morning.
After taking a shower, he changed into a tailored black shirt and pants.
Mo Tian came in to help him pack his luggage.
“Your Majesty, we should go.”
After breakfast, Long Ming and Mo Tian left in the helicopter.
Long Ming sat by the window while Mo Tian sat beside him, reporting to him about work.
“Recently, someone in the southeastern region caused a ruckus and caused panic among the people. I suspect that it was Long Di’s men.”
Back then, Long Ming had caught Long Di and put him in jail, but he had escaped. In the past three years, Long Di had been hiding and had not appeared. Long Ming knew that he must be planning to regain his power.
Long Ming glanced at Mo Tian, his slender fingers picking up the coffee cup. He took a sip and said with a deep and cold voice, “He can’t hold back anymore. He’ll show himself soon. We just have to wait.”
Mo Tian nodded and smirked. “Yes, he will appear soon.”
Seeing Mo Tian’s smile, Long Ming seemed to realize that something was wrong. He furrowed his straight eyebrows, wanting to say something, but his vision turned blurry.
“What… did you put in the coffee?”
“Your Majesty, you’re tired. Sleep!”
“I trusted you so much, but you…” Long Ming felt his eyelids getting heavier. He wanted to grab Mo Tian’s arm, but he could not muster any strength.
…
In his daze, Long Ming heard someone talking.
He wanted to open his eyes, but his eyelids were extremely heavy.
“Long Ming, you never dreamed that you would fall into the hands of your most trusted confidant, did you?”
It was Long Di’s voice.
Long Di looked at the man with his eyes closed, his gaze dark and filled with hatred. “Back then, you sent that woman to my side and took away the confidential documents in my computer, causing my family to be destroyed. I said that I would take revenge sooner or later!”
“Fortunately, God was kind to me and allowed me to find an old professor who was lucky enough to survive the SSS group’s research on the chip. Before he died, he gave me a chip. I found someone to improve on it. Now, as long as this chip is implanted in your brain, you will listen to me obediently and become my puppet.”
“Long Ming, I want you to write an edict personally and make me King. When I succeed, I’ll send you to hell to meet your parents.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll make that woman you’ve always loved my concubine and dote on her well.”
…
Ever since Xiao Ying received Long Ming’s “good night” that night, she had not received any messages or calls from him.
Three days had passed.
Xiao Ying had a clear answer in her heart, but since he had not contacted her, she could not take the initiative to look for him.
Just like that, another weekend arrived. Because Xiao Ying still had not received Long Ming’s call, she took the initiative to call him.
In the end, the call did not go through.
Xiao Ying then used Wan Bao’s phone to call him.
It went through, but no one answered.
Did that mean that her phone could not get through to him because he had blocked it?
Xiao Ying could not understand why he had blocked her number, nor why he had not contacted or replied her.
Xiao Ying was not an impulsive girl. Her experience since she was young made her used to analyzing the reason calmly.
Something must have happened for Long Ming to do this.
Xiao Ying then called Mo Tian.
