Chapter Fifty I Am Too

  Resign? Resign? Resign?

  The moment he heard this sentence, Lin Taiping suspected that his hearing was a problem: "Don't joke around, you say you want to resign? That is, you won't work for me anymore?"

  "Yes..." Christine turned her head somewhat unnaturally, looking at the black carriage stopped at the garden's back gate. "I'm sorry, I know this goes against the contract, but please, let me leave."

  What a joke? Lin Taiping couldn't help but want to laugh, but when he saw Kristen's tightly pursed lips, he had to admit that this wasn't funny at all. He really didn't understand why Kristen suddenly said she wanted to quit. Was it because the work was too tiring or the salary not enough? These were all negotiable, weren't they?

  "No, you've been very kind to me, and to Vivian as well." Kristen deliberately used polite language, making their relationship seem somewhat distant. "However, I have my own things to attend to, so I must take my leave."

  "Are you serious?" Lin Taiping lightly licked his lips, a strange sense of loss welled up in his heart, making his mouth feel bitter, as if he had lost a precious treasure.

  There was no answer, Kristen just hung her head, looking at the tip of her own feet. The originally somewhat depressing atmosphere became even more solemn and oppressive at this moment, and even the birds that were chirping in the yard fell silent for some reason.

  Time seemed to have frozen at this moment, yet it also seemed like a long time had passed. In this suffocating atmosphere, Lin Taiping finally licked his bitter lips and forced out a faint smile: "Alright, maybe I should use Ye Ge's wolf-tooth club to knock you unconscious and force you to stay and work. But since you've already made up your mind... then..."

  "Thank you." Kristen tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, responding almost imperceptibly, and with this sentence, the atmosphere that had just eased up a bit suddenly became oppressive again.

  Lin Taiping took a deep breath, suddenly beaming with joy and revealing eight white teeth, and exaggeratedly opening his arms: "Alright, alright, it's not like we're parting ways forever, we'll definitely meet again in the future. But on second thought, as a farewell gift, shouldn't you give me a big hug or a passionate kiss of blessing...hmm!"

  Without any warning, the slightly trembling red cherry lips suddenly blocked his mouth. At first, the somewhat cold lip was quickly replaced by a passionate flame after the initial awkwardness. The intoxicating tongue lightly wandered around and soon invaded his oral cavity, bringing with it threads of frenzied desire.

  Completely unexpected, what was originally just a joke to ease the atmosphere suddenly received a sultry response, Lin Taiping was thoroughly confused at this moment, his mind went blank, and he even felt that his body had lost control.

  But soon, in Kristin's passionate response, he quickly became entranced in that tenderness and tried to actively extend his tongue to chase after her fiery cherry lips. Those hands, which had originally not known where to place themselves, finally wrapped around Kristin's soft waist, tightly pressing down with force, as if wanting to press her wonderful body completely into his chest.

  A very, very long time later, this sweet and endless kiss finally came to an end...

  Kristin's face flushed as she pushed Lin Taiping away, taking a few steps back. She lowered her swan-like slender neck, her moist and shiny cherry lips slightly parted, her high and heaving bosom rising and falling violently, but she didn't say anything.

  Lin Taiping's face was filled with a strange expression as he touched his lips, suddenly feeling extremely embarrassed, and didn't even know where to look. But what made him feel even stranger was why Kristen would suddenly become so proactive and enthusiastic, even though there was indeed some ambiguity and affection between them, but it seemed like they hadn't reached that point yet.

  "There's nothing, just a farewell gift." Kristen finally lifted her head, revealing that radiant smile.

  All her worries and shyness just disappeared at this moment, she turned back to the usual Kristen, elegant and bright, full of wild beauty: "So, boss, you take good care of yourself, by the way, remember to have a few more kids with Ye Ge, as for me... see you!"

  In this way, she bid farewell with a swift and decisive turn of her body, and strode away with long steps. The golden sunlight of the late afternoon fell on her red hair, making her figure increasingly blurred, as if it would disappear into thin air at any moment.

  But just then, as she was about to leave the garden, this red-haired beauty with slightly moist eyes turned around and said loudly in a serious tone: "Boss, that's my first kiss!"

  Looking at that radiant smiling face, Lin Taiping fell silent for a moment, and replied loudly: "Same here, me too!"

  Yes, just like getting a very satisfactory answer, Kristen smiled brightly, like a golden sunflower blooming in the sunlight, but she finally waved her hand vigorously and stepped onto the long-awaited black carriage.

  The sound of the wheels rolling, this unmarked black carriage slowly drove away, along that quiet and peaceful little road, gradually getting farther and farther away, until it disappeared into the evening fog.

  "Alright, I hate this melodramatic plot..." Lin Taiping lit a cigar, murmuring to himself expressionlessly in the slowly rising smoke.

  A moment later, he suddenly lifted his head and stared at the lush tree beside him, "Hey, have you had enough? Come out if you've had enough!"

  "How did you find me?" Along with the rustling of leaves, Ye Ge jumped down from the treetop, her expression looked a bit strange but still smiling, "How pitiful, dear, do you want me to lend you my handkerchief or offer my shoulder for you to cry on?"

  "It doesn't matter at all, you just need to pay for the ticket and that's it." Lin Taiping puffed out a few smoke rings, nonchalantly patting his hands, "Of course, if you're not planning on paying, then help me with something instead, how about that?"

  "What's up? Do you want me to help you write a love letter?" Ye Ge licked her tongue, but still leaned in, however, after listening to Lin Taiping's words, she suddenly showed a very strange expression, "Uh, are you sure you want to do this?"

  "Of course, I'm sure." Lin Taiping patted her fragrant shoulder, "Is there a problem? If you can't do it, I can ask someone else to help."

  "Idiot, the Intimidation Law is ineffective on me." Ye Ge couldn't help but roll her eyes, still confident as she licked her cherry lips. "However, considering that gift you gave me, I'll reluctantly help you once, just this once."

  She said, stretching out her small hand to hook him, tilting her head in thought, and then, as if thinking of something, added: "But, come to think of it, when men are so heartbroken, shouldn't they usually go find a place to drink, get drunk, take some other woman for a lover, and bring her back to push onto the bed..."

  Push you a head! Lin Taiping directly turned around and left, behind him, Ye Ge still didn't give up, closely following and grumbling...

  "Hey, hey, we can negotiate, anyway you're going to give a discount to someone else, why not give it to me?"

  "Wait, don't go so fast, I'm serious. I promise that when you push me down, I won't resist at all, even if you call out the name Kristen."

  "How detestable! If you can kiss her passionately, why can't you have children with me... Is this reasonable? Are you trying to force me to use a wolf's tooth club?"
