"Mr. Xia, I'm sorry, but I must leave first."
"It's alright. If there's a chance in the future, I hope Miss Xia can come."
"Of course!" Xinran symbolically bid farewell to her father in front of everyone, then was pulled away by Dong Shan Zhong out of the Banquet Hall.
As they reached the door, Xinran shook off Dong Shan Zhong's hand and glared at him, saying, "You know I'm avoiding you, yet you chose to appear tonight of all times. You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"
"Yes, I know that in such an occasion, you wouldn't refuse me. However, I might have been too confident; it seems you still want to avoid me!" Dong Shan Zhong's eyes were deep.
"I'm just not sure how to face you..." Xinran lowered her head slightly, her eyelashes casting shadows.
"Alright, since that's the case, I'll give you time! But tonight, you must accompany me!"
"Where are we going?" Her hand was once again held by Dong Shan Zhong's broad palm, and this time she didn't shake it off.
"Just get in the car; you'll know when we arrive." At that moment, Dong Shan Zhong's black Ferrari pulled up. As usual, his subordinate got out first to open the car door for them and closed it after they got in.
There was a soundproof barrier between the front and back seats, creating two separate spaces. Xinran looked at Dong Shan Zhong sitting across from her and chuckled softly. She understood that such cars were usually temporary beds for wealthy young men eager to be with women; the seats were spacious enough and soundproofed well enough that even if things got heated in the car, it wouldn't matter.
"What are you laughing at?" Dong Shan Zhong gently lifted Xinran's chin with his hand, looking into her eyes as if searching for something.
"Nothing!" Xinran turned her head away, trying to shake off his grip.
"Don't move!" Dong Shan Zhong's voice was low, but he had somehow taken out a medical kit. He released Xinran and took out some antiseptic solution and a tube of ointment from the kit. He then held her jaw again, using the antiseptic to wipe away the remaining concealer on her face, before applying the ointment. His movements were so delicate as he slowly caressed Xinran's cheek, as if he were caring for a precious treasure.
"When did you find out?" With him so close, she could smell the refreshing scent of his cologne. Feeling his gentle treatment, her vision blurred for a moment before she hesitantly asked.
"A long time ago, I noticed it when I was holding you just now... Who did this to you?" Dong Shan Zhong moved his hand away, put away the medical kit, and instead held both of Xinran's hands.
"It's fine now; it doesn't hurt anymore!"
"Actually, even if you didn't say anything, I would know. I am almost fully aware of your situation! I won't let my woman be bullied, so..."
"No, no need for that. I can handle it myself." Xinran hurriedly placed her hand over Dong Shan Zhong's lips to stop him from speaking. She knew he had the strength to teach Xia Wenjing and the others a lesson, but she couldn't let her selfishness cause trouble for her father.
"Your hands are so sweet; I'm missing the taste of your lips!" Dong Shan Zhong smiled as he held her hand that covered his lips, kissing it teasingly.
"Let go!" Xinran's face flushed bright red as she turned to look out the car window, unexpectedly recalling that time in his office and their kiss...
"We've arrived!" The car stopped, and as the door opened, Dong Shan Zhong did not release Xinran's hand but pulled her out of the car.
"This place... is so beautiful!" Xinran exclaimed in surprise as she saw the starry sky so close to her.
"I remember when you debuted; you once said in an interview that what you wanted to see most was the starry sky from the mountain top. Tonight has the most stars; I thought you would like it!" Dong Shan Zhong wrapped his arms around Xinran from behind and whispered in her ear.
"I... really like it. Thank you so much!" A tear slowly fell from the corner of Xinran's eye. How could she not be moved by his thoughtfulness?
