If I Have You, What More Could I Ask For In This Life? - Chapter 8.2
Translated by: Cherry
When their eyes met…
Yisheng turned red with shame. She wanted to pull her hand out of his grasp, but he did not let go. She anxiously explained, “I saw a mosquito on your face just now and wanted to hit it to kill it?”
“You’re hitting it very gently,” Song Anchen narrowed his thing and long eyes, his smile seemed to have knives hidden in it.
She laughed and said, “Of course, I’ve always been very gentle.” She laughed awkwardly for a long while, but she was the only one laughing. She found it meaningless and stopped laughing.
When their eyes met again, Yisheng only felt that she wanted to faint. She was feeling too awkward, it was all because of her restless hands, why did she want to take advantage of him while he was sleeping? Now, she was caught by him and she was completely disgraced and embarrassed.
He approached her little by little. She retreated bit by bit, and the situation instantly changed to the woman being below and the man pressing down on her…
He supported his body with his two hands. Below him was Yisheng, whose face had turned pale with fear. For a long time, the two of them were stuck in that position quietly.
Yisheng could even feel the warmth from his breath. His pair of deep and mysterious eyes seemed to have a mischievous glint in them, smiling as he looked at her, his body lowering bit by bit. She saw him getting closer and closer but had nowhere to retreat to. She forcefully closed her eyes, looking like she was facing her doom. But after she waited for a long time, what she expected to happen did not happen. She opened her eyes slightly but saw that Song Anchen was looking at the Rolex on his left hand in a good mood.
Yisheng did not understand what he was looking at. She then saw him smile and say in a doting manner, “It’s almost seven.”
Yisheng did not understand. He straightened up again, removing the pressure he was placing on her. He arranged his clothes back to how they were before and stood up, “I’ll return home now.”
“…” Yisheng nodded her head, a little distracted, “Bye-bye.”
Song Anchen simply smiled and walked towards the door. Yisheng followed behind him slowly.
When he completely vanished from before her eyes, she had yet to return to her senses. She recalled her embarrassment from before and pulled at her hair, irritated. Song Anchen must be despising her from the bottom of his heart. She pinched her forehead. After what happened just now, she was not sleepy at all. However, in the afternoon, she needed to accompany Zhao Jixiang on a blind date. She had to rest. In the end, she chose to take a cold shower, then go to bed.
Back in the parking lot, Song Anchen did not drive off for a long while. He kept sitting in the car in a daze, deep emotions in his eyes. He seemed to be thinking about something and was very focused. He rested his forehead in his hand, a melancholic expression on his face.
He took out his phone and opened his multimedia document. There were only two photos there, and these two photos were both photos of him and her. The first photo was of her with her refreshing short hair, she was wearing a sky blue Teenie Weenie hooded dress, hugging him from behind with both hands, her smile was like that of a flower, but he was not smiling. She had once complained that he did not want to take photos with her. That was not true, it was their first time acting so intimately and he was just feeling shy.
When his finger hovered over the second photo, he did not click on it for a long time. He just looked at the blurry photo in the catalog, seeming to be deep in thoughts. He could barely see that it was a photo with both him and her, and he looked at this blurry photo for a long time without opening it, his eyes slightly dazed. Finally, he turned off his phone and started his car, the sound of his car starting up was like his restless heart and he drove off, leaving Hua Yuan Estate.

Yisheng was woken up by her ringtone. She fumbled for her mobile phone, in a daze. When she saw that it was Zhao Jixiang’s call, she instantly woke up, quickly jumping up and answering the phone call.
“Miss Yisheng, can I ask, where are you?”
“At home,” She knew it was over for her.
“Do you know what time we agreed to meet, and what time it is now?”
She pulled her phone away from her ear and took a look. They had agreed to meet at three, and it happened to be three currently. Yisheng coughed lightly, “I’ll fly to you at the speed of light.”
“Come on!” Zhao Jixiang instantly spoke English. That voice… Yisheng directly pulled her phone away from her ear, letting Zhao Jixiang yell first.
The exact time that she got to the café was 3:46 pm, this was already the fastest Yisheng could get there. This café was not far from Yisheng’s house, it was just opposite to the restaurant that Yan Heng had brought her to eat at last time, but she needed to at least clean herself up and ensure that her appearance was good, so she was a little delayed.
Zhao Yisheng was about to explode. When she saw Yisheng coming over in a hurry, she pointed to the café, “That other party has been waiting for a long time, my image has been destroyed by you.”
Yisheng flattened her lips, “It doesn’t matter if you go in first.”
Zhao Jixiang ignored her and directly pulled her inside. When they reached a seat near the floor-length window and Yisheng saw Zhao Jixiang’s blind date, she almost spat out in shock. He had a Mediterranean hairstyle, a round belly, and a fat mouth. He was smiling as he greeted them, such an interesting person was really…
The two of them were a little stunned. Zhao Jixiang reacted first and swallowed her saliva silently, pushing Yisheng to sit down.
