A Lovely Girl Turning Into A Rat Chapter 23
"Happy birthday, my sweetheart," said Luo Nan, with a big bunch of lilies in his hands .
Dong Ci gave him a smile, although her favorite flower was not the lily .
Her birthday party was held in the Ocean View Hotel . Many people came to the party and most of them were Luo Nan's business cronies . Chai Wenxiu was not here yet . Before going out, she said to Hai Ming, "Today is Dong Ci's birthday . Your examination is coming . You'd better stay at home and revise for it . I know you don't like to attend a party . " Hai Ming smiled at her with grat.i.tude and said, "You know me very well . "
In the car Chen Qi said to Chai Wenxiu, "Dong Ci is lucky enough to have a friend like you . Otherwise, I wouldn't have known her birthday one month in advance . "
Chai Wenxiu said, "This is the last time I will help you . "
When Luo Nan saw Chen Qi, he felt a chill creep over him .
When Chen Qi saw Luo Nan, he felt that this man was like him .
Dong's heart nearly stopped beating at the sight of Chen Qi . "h.e.l.lo . . . "
"Well, your friends are here . Now I'm going to entertain my friends . " Luo Nan kissed Dong Ci on the cheek . We can open presents together after we get home tonight . "
He cast a look at Chen Qi and said, "You must be Hai Ming . Chai Wenxiu really has a good taste in men . "
Advertis.e.m.e.ntDong Ci gave Luo Nan a slight push and said, "Go and chat with your friends . I want to talk with my friends alone . " Luo Nan obediently went away .
Chai Wenxiu stuck out her tongue at Dong Ci and said, "I'm afraid I have to answer a call of nature . "
"I told you not to contact me anymore . " Dong Ci looked at Chen Qi in consternation, but soon delight overwhelmed the panic .
"You can't stop me from loving you," said Chen Qi .
"You've seen my future husband . I have a deep affection for him . So, it's impossible for us to be together . " Dong Ci looked around on alert like a Navy Seal .
Luo Nan came over and took Dong Ci's hand . "Come with me . The party is about to start . "
The party started with a dramatic display of fireworks . The dazzling fireworks exploded in the sky with vivacious colours, one after another, illuminating Dong Ci's beautiful face . A happy smile played on her lips .
Chen Qi quietly slipped away . He didn't like fireworks because they were short-lived . After a brief, splendid fireworks, there was nothing left in the night sky .
Dong Ci wore a smile and pretended to be happy . She was a good actress and all people were cheated on by her . When Chen Qi approached the door, he glanced back and met Dong Ci's eyes . Even if they remembered what had happened in the distant past, they couldn't be together because Luo Nan was like a gap existing between them .
"Why is she still alive?" Nidazu asked Ji Jing, who was standing in the corner .
"How should I know?" Ji jing looked at people laughing and playing games with cold eyes, "Do you really think she lives a happy life?"
The reason Luo Nan liked Dong Ci was that he was accustomed to being with her . They were very familiar with each other, so there was no need for him to rack his brains to please her .
The reason Dong Ci liked Luo Nan was that she was accustomed to being with him . He was so kind to her that she had no reason to break up with him .
Dong Ci's phone rang . The caller was waiting for her downstairs . Luo Nan had left for work fifteen minutes ago . Chen Qi said, "I will give you five minutes . If you don't go downstairs five minutes later, I will go upstairs to see you . "
'Five minutes? How can I dress myself up in such a short time?" Dong Ci hurriedly changed her clothes and then combed her hair . Now she realized that it was a bad habit to have a lie-in .
She ran downstairs and saw Chen Qi sitting in the car .
"You forgot to wash your face," said Chen Qi .
"Please let me go and stop pestering me . . . " pleaded Dong Ci . Some bubbles formed when she had brushed her teeth with toothpaste remained on her lips .
"Don't worry . I have a birthday present for you . "
Two hours later, the car pulled out of the city proper and came to the suburbs, but they still didn't reach their destination . Dong Ci frowned and asked, "Are you going to rape me or murder me?"
On hearing this, Chen Qi burst into laughter, "Haha . "
"You once said you were a psycho killer . " Dong Ci cast a glance at Chen Qi's mouth .
"You are not the kind of person who owes me money but can't pay back . I won't kill you," he said .
"What if I borrow money from you and fail to pay back?" asked Dong Ci .
"Silly girl, then you can give yourself to me . " Chen Qi kissed Dong Ci on her nose quickly . "Do you know why I like you?"
"I don't know . "
"You may not believe my words, but I want to tell you that I had dreamed about you before I first met you . And in my dream, you wore ancient costume . " Chen Qi turned round a bend . "We're reaching the destination . "
Dong Ci curled her upper lip in a show of disdain and said, "It’s really a tacky explanation . Are you a writer? Otherwise, how could you cook up such a theatrical reason? You might as well have said that I look like your first girlfriend . "
The sun was high in the sky . They walked in a green bamboo grove and felt refreshed .
"It's a beautiful place . " Dong Ci breathed deeply, drawing in the fresh air .
"Your birthday present is just ahead," said Chen Qi .
Dong Ci walked quickly out of the bamboo grove, and then pushed open the garden gate .
The garden was full of roses and their slender branches flickered in the wind . The air was full of the fragrance of roses . The green leaves glistened with dewdrops . As the afternoon drew on, silvery dewdrops on the petals were gradually evaporated by the sun . The path among the roses was scattered with fallen petals .
Dong Ci did not reject such a beautiful birthday present . She even allowed Chen Qi to kiss and caress her . In the rose garden, the roses drew nutrients from corpses buried underground . That was why they were much more beautiful than roses anywhere else .
The pity was that it was in the daytime . If Dong Ci came to the rose garden at night, she would see some naked men and women lying lifelessly among the roses with their bellies cut open . They died with everlasting regret .
The rose garden belonged to Chen Qi, a real psycho killer .
