50: Chapter 50 The night was slightly cool, and Lin Xiaojin took the initiative to confess her feelings.

Receiving no response, Lin Xiaojin tiptoed and poked her little head out from the corner of the wall.

When she saw the figure sitting on the presidential bed, Lin Xiaojin's beautiful eyes widened in shock, and she stood frozen in place.

After a full half-minute, Lin Xiaojin hurriedly trotted forward in excitement and asked in surprise, "Mom, how are you here!?"

The person in the presidential suite was not Qin Ge at all, but her mother!

You must know, ever since her mother became paralyzed, she had never left the tenement building.

Even for massage rehabilitation, she had to hire technicians to come to the house.

Later, after she secretly learned massage techniques, she started doing the massages for her mother herself.

She never dreamed that her mother would also appear at the seaside!

Xu Ying looked at her daughter before her with doting eyes and said softly, "Of course, Mr. Qin brought me here."

"Mr. Qin said it was your wish to bring your mother along on a seaside trip, so he deliberately took advantage of your team-building event to bring me over."

Lin Xiaojin bit her lip, and mist instantly welled up in her eyes.

She had thought that Qin Ge brought her to the room to take advantage of her.

As it turned out, Qin Ge just wanted to give her a surprise while she was taking a shower?

Guilt, annoyance, heartache, and being moved—all sorts of complex emotions were brewing within Lin Xiaojin's chest.

Overwhelmed by a mix of emotions, Lin Xiaojin could no longer control her feelings.

Hot teardrops fell in torrents from her cheeks.

"Silly child, why are you crying?"

"Mom still has a surprise for you."

Sitting on the bed, Xu Ying leaned on herself and stood up unsteadily.

She opened her arms and pulled her crying daughter tightly into her embrace, whispering with a choked voice,

"Xiao Jin, Mom can stand up now. Mr. Qin said that in at most a month, Mom will be able to live like a normal person. By then, you won't have to carry the burden of the family on your thin shoulders all by yourself anymore!"

Seeing her mother stand up, Lin Xiaojin's beautiful eyes trembled wildly, and her body, held in the embrace, shook even more violently.

She felt as if she were dreaming.

Things that only happen in dreams.

Now, they were appearing before her eyes one by one, like dreams coming true.

Lin Xiaojin's tears were like a broken dam.

Bean-sized teardrops fell pitter-patter onto her mother's shoulder.

She said with a choked voice: "It was Qin Ge..."

Xu Ying gave a soft hum, "Mr. Qin was worried that there wouldn't be enough time, so he hired world-renowned doctors to perform the surgery on Mom while on the plane."

"Xiao Jin, Mr. Qin cares about you even more than Mom thought!"

Lin Xiaojin tried hard to wipe away her tears. She broke free from Xu Ying's embrace, looked at her mother, and pouted, "Mom, where did Qin Ge go? Where is he now?"

Lin Xiaojin's watery eyes were filled with urgency.

She desperately wanted to see Qin Ge!

She felt that if she didn't see Qin Ge right now.

She would fall apart.

She was happy, she was excited, she was overjoyed.

Her mother, who had been paralyzed for years, could not only move her upper body but could now even walk on the ground.

And now, she had even come to the seaside to watch the ocean with her!

All of this was a surprise that Qin Ge had specially prepared for her!

Yet, just a moment ago while showering, she had questioned Qin Ge's intentions.

Suspecting that Qin Ge wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to sleep with her.

Lin Xiaojin felt that she was truly ungrateful and couldn't distinguish good intentions from bad!

If she didn't apologize to Qin Ge.

Would she, Lin Xiaojin, still deserve for Qin Ge to treat her this well?

Xu Ying shook her head and replied uncertainly, "Mr. Qin should be at the beach, right?"

Upon getting the answer, Lin Xiaojin changed her clothes and hurriedly ran toward the beach.

...

As the sun set, night gradually fell.

Having searched the entire beach, Lin Xiaojin finally discovered the solitary figure of Qin Ge in a rocky area, letting the sea breeze blow against his face.

Under the bright moonlight, Qin Ge's shadow was stretched long.

Bathed in moonlight and wearing the 'slightly cool night' medal, Qin Ge.

At this moment, not only was he incomparably handsome and full of charm.

His whole being was surrounded by a layer of aloof coldness.

It was as if the Qin Ge standing there was out of place with his surroundings.

Exceptionally lonely in his solitude.

His inner loneliness could not be dispelled by anyone.

Lin Xiaojin didn't know why, but looking at Qin Ge's profile at this moment, a trace of sympathy actually arose in her heart.

"That's right! I don't understand Qin Ge at all!"

"Qin Ge is not at all the way I thought he was."

"He is warmer and kinder than anyone, yet he has to endure the doubts of others."

"Not just Jiang Yingxue, even I, Lin Xiaojin, have also hurt Qin Ge's heart."

She had treated the surprise Qin Ge prepared as his selfish desire to possess her.

Such an ugly thought.

Compared to Jiang Yingxue, who had once hurt Qin Ge, how was she any better?

Lin Xiaojin hurried forward, looking at the solitary and cold Qin Ge, her heartache uncontrollable.

She desperately wanted to take Qin Ge into her arms.

She wanted to tell him that she could accompany him, always accompany him, and never be apart.

But when she walked to Qin Ge's side, she became timid again; she stood blankly beside Qin Ge, lowering her head in guilt.

"Why aren't you keeping your mother company? What are you doing coming here to find me?"

Qin Ge turned back, a breeze-like smile on his face, yet in his eyes, there was an indescribable sadness.

Lin Xiaojin looked up, her large watery eyes still a bit red. She opened her mouth and asked softly, "How did you know that bringing Mom to the seaside was my wish?"

Qin Ge took out a blue and white exercise book and waved it in front of Lin Xiaojin, saying with a smile, "I didn't know what to do to make you happy from the bottom of your heart, so I used some small tricks to get your diary from your mother."

He opened the exercise book, looked at the crooked writing in the diary, and read, "March 8, 2010. The teacher said the beaches in the Maldives are the most beautiful places in the world. I want to go too, and I want Mom and Dad to take me."

"..."

"September 12, 2011. Mom is lying on the bed alone, wiping away tears. The teacher said waves can wash away all worries and sadness. Lin Xiaojin, keep going! When you make money in the future, you must take Mom on a seaside trip..."

The diary entries were not continuous.

Lin Xiaojin didn't write in her diary every day either.

It was called a diary, but in reality, it was just a way for the somewhat insecure young Lin Xiaojin to vent her emotions.

Listening to Qin Ge read her childhood diary, Lin Xiaojin didn't feel the slightest bit of shame.

She only felt that her heart, which had been cold and fragile.

Was now being held up by a pair of warm, large hands that were cradling her icy heart.

Warming her.

And protecting her too!

Lin Xiaojin's eyes reddened. Looking up at Qin Ge's warm face, she whispered with a choked voice, "Qin Ge, why do you treat me so well?"

"Why can you do so much for me?"

"Do I, Lin Xiaojin, really deserve for you to do this?"

Qin Ge was just about to nod and answer with the word "worth it."

But before the words could leave his mouth, Lin Xiaojin took the initiative and confessed first, "Qin Ge, I like you!"

After saying this, Lin Xiaojin stepped forward, stood on her tiptoes, wrapped her arms around Qin Ge's waist, closed her beautiful eyes, and kissed him forcefully without warning.

Holy crap!

Even Qin Ge, upon seeing this scene, had his eyes widen, and he couldn't help but curse.

Everything he had carefully arranged was just to get Lin Xiaojin to confess.

No one told him that the white moonlight would force a kiss on someone too!

Looking at Lin Xiaojin, who was so caught up in the moment that she only knew how to press her lips against his.

Qin Ge thought that since they were already kissing.

He simply tossed the diary aside and held the back of Lin Xiaojin's head.

Kissing her passionately.

The sea breeze blew up not just her long hair, but also the diary that carried Lin Xiaojin's true inner thoughts.

The blue and white exercise book's pages flipped:

"May 13. Today, I was caught by the boss taking a croissant from the snack cabinet. The evil capitalist actually forced me to give him a massage. I've been defiled, I'll never be able to get married now, o(╥﹏╥)o"

"May 14. Mr. Qin transferred five hundred yuan to me again today. A TCM massage only costs 198 yuan per session, and I only learned the technique secretly. Isn't Mr. Qin paying too much? The evil capitalist! Mr. Qin made me wear stockings today. It's my first time wearing stockings, it's so embarrassing, (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻"

"May 15. Mr. Qin transferred twenty thousand yuan to me, saying it was the monthly fee for massages. Mr. Qin doesn't seem as bad as I thought. It's like he knew I was short on money and is helping me? (⊙o⊙)?"

"May 16. Mr. Qin asked me to accompany him to the Mu Family's engagement banquet. Everyone attending the banquet is an evil capitalist. I feel like a pheasant thrown into a flock of peacocks. However, staying by Mr. Qin's side gives me such a sense of security (●ˇ∀ˇ●)"

"May 18. Mr. Qin actually knows medicine! Mom's upper body can move now. Mr. Qin says Mom will be able to walk on the ground in the future. That's great, thank you, Mr. Qin ~

(≧▽≦)/~"

"..."

"The Operations and Maintenance Area is having a team-building event. It's actually going to the Maldives seaside! If only I could go with Mr. Qin, that would be great!"

"I asked Mr. Qin today, and Mr. Qin said he has business to discuss and can't go ~~＞_＜~~"

"If it were the previous Jiang Yingxue inviting Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin would definitely go, right?"

"Mr. Qin has always doted on Jiang Yingxue so much."

"Mr. Qin is so good to his girlfriend!"

"May 20. If only I were Qin Ge's girlfriend..."
