Chapter 749 Human Affairs 09
"Yes, sir, the two pairs you picked are a pair, for praying for marriage. The gold beads on them are also a pair, and they can be inlaid together..." the stall owner explained with a smile.
Hmm? Fate, hehe...
You chuckled inwardly, secretly glancing at Qin Che.
Before he could say anything that would upset you, your fingertips had already hooked onto the red string in his palm. The cool gold beads brushed against his knuckles, and with a flick of your wrist, the warm string was already wrapped around his wrist.
"I've put it on for you, now, help me put it on." You then offered your wrist to him, and as you looked down, the ends of your hair brushed against the back of his hand, creating a faint breeze.
Qin Che lowered his eyes and stared at the overlapping red ropes, his Adam's apple bobbing in the shadows.
The warmth of his fingertips contrasted sharply with the coolness of the gold beads; it was just a simple knot, yet he tied it extremely slowly.
As you turn around after paying, the back of his hand brushes against your palm, but the next second you grab his fingers.
"Let's go!" You waved your clasped hands, your eyes crinkling with laughter. "Qin Che, do you know the saying that whatever you do on New Year's Day, you'll do the same thing every day of the new year? You prayed for marriage with me today, so from now on, you'll have to be with me every single day."
"I thought even without these two ropes, we were already destined to be bound together." Qin Che pulled your clasped hands together and held them up in front of your eyes. "And you, do you need these to confirm your sense of security?"
You paused, your gaze falling on the two red ropes: "I know it's not necessary, but..."
Qin Che curled one corner of his lips and tilted his head slightly to look at you: "I always have to check repeatedly before I can be sure that the prey won't escape in front of you."
You met his red eyes and nodded vigorously: "Yes! Especially for a very cunning prey like you!"
"So you think I wouldn't cherish the person in front of me?"
He looked at your clasped hands, and in that moment of resonance, that familiar link reappeared—a red thread visible only to you that connected and bound the two of you together.
You looked at each other in the bustling crowd, and the light in his eyes reflected the same burning desire in yours.
The night wind lifted the corner of my clothes, but it couldn't blow away this invisible bond.
"Do you think you can kidnap me with this?" He suddenly leaned down, his warm breath brushing against my ear, his deep voice laced with laughter, "Nothing can stop me from doing what I don't want to do." The last syllable of his voice carried a seductive tremor, like a feather brushing against my heart.
You look up at him, your fingertips unconsciously tracing the lines on his palm.
Qin Che looked down at you, and the next second, he suddenly chuckled. The laughter cut through the noise and struck the softest corner of your heart.
“I came here voluntarily.” He tightened his fingers, the gold beads on the red string gently touching. “I’m not as uncomfortable here as you think.”
"Hmm..." you nodded hesitantly.
"Didn't you already know the answer?"
"Although I already have the answer in my mind, I always want to check the standard answer a few more times before I can be sure."
He reached out the hand that wasn't tied to yours and flicked your forehead.
“…Hey!” You glared at the annoying guy.
"There are still many places we haven't visited, let's go." Qin Che tightened his grip on their clasped hands and said.
