After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 503

Xia Qiqi went to the restaurant booked by Nie Ziming.

Nie Ziming was rarely romantic.

In Xia Qiqi's eyes, he was just genuinely good.

But tonight, unexpectedly, he had reserved the entire upscale restaurant and prepared a candlelight dinner.

The two of them sat across from each other.

Xia Qiqi smiled beautifully and charmingly, saying, "I really didn't prepare a gift."

Nie Ziming smiled gently, "Having you accompany me is the best gift. For a long time, I've been spending my birthdays alone. For a while, my birthday wish was to have someone accompany me to eat cake and blow out the candles."

Xia Qiqi's nose turned sour.

She was actually a person rich in emotion, easily touched by others.

Just thinking about Nie Ziming once being alone and lonely made her feel very upset.

She took Nie Ziming's hand on her own initiative, "From now on, I'll accompany you, for a lifetime."

"Yes." Nie Ziming smiled, as if comforting her, "So now, I really feel very happy. I've been thinking that maybe the reason God let me lose so much before was to let me meet you better. I really have to thank the old man."

Xia Qiqi couldn't help but laugh.

Nie Ziming always seemed to be able to cheer her up.

Unlike...

Xiao Nanchen.

Her gaze suddenly paused.

Why was she thinking about that bastard at this moment?

Just the thought of him made her mood utterly ruined.

Nie Ziming seemed to have noticed Xia Qiqi's slight abnormality, but he was good at concealing it. He stood up from his seat and suddenly walked towards her.

Xia Qiqi's heart rate quickened as she watched Nie Ziming's actions.

According to common sense.

Could Nie Ziming be about to... propose?

She had only wanted to sleep with him, never thinking it would reach this point.

At this moment, her heart was also racing.

She just watched Nie Ziming.

Watched his elegant bow, then extend his hand, "May I have this dance with the most beautiful Miss Xia in the world?"

Xia Qiqi was stunned for a second.

So...

It was just a dance.

She had thought he was going to propose.

It gave her quite a fright.

She gladly extended her hand and walked with Nie Ziming to the side.

Completely unaware that at the moment she thought Nie Ziming was going to propose, why had she felt a bit startled.

Beautiful music began playing in the restaurant.

The two lightly embraced each other, swaying their bodies.

They were very close.

Their breaths were close.

Between adults, even a small gesture could potentially ignite a passionate encounter, let alone in such an environment...

Xia Qiqi took the initiative to embrace Nie Ziming's neck and kissed him.

Nie Ziming froze for a second.

Then slowly responded to her.

The two became entwined in the romantic setting.

After the kiss.

They were both slightly breathless.

Xia Qiqi's rosy lips drew near Nie Ziming's ear, and she softly said, "Your place or mine tonight?"

Such an obvious suggestion.

Nie Ziming

could not possibly misunderstand.

Yet at that moment.

Xia Qiqi did not sense Nie Ziming's excitement, did not sense the same anticipation as her.

He became rigid, as if stunned.

Just standing there stiffly.

Xia Qiqi frowned.

She looked at Nie Ziming with puzzlement at his changing expression.

Clearly able to see the panic and bewilderment in his eyes.

So...

Nie Ziming was unwilling?!

Nie Ziming naturally also saw Xia Qiqi's gaze.

He struggled to regain his composure, leading Xia Qiqi directly back to the dining table.

As if nothing had just been said.

However, Xia Qiqi was not the type to back down easily. The less she received an answer, the more aggressive she became.

"Ziming, do you know what I meant by what I just said?" Xia Qiqi stated clearly.

Nie Ziming's throat moved slightly, and he said, "I'm afraid it won't be good for your body."

"Are you afraid it won't be good for my body, or because you look down on my body?" Xia Qiqi was clearly agitated.

Nie Ziming looked at her with astonishment, quickly saying, "How could you think that? I would never look down on you!"

"I've slept with other men before and had an abortion, don't all men look down on that?"

"Qiqi, you shouldn't say that. I really never thought that way..."

"Then why, after we got back together for so long, have you never touched me?"

"I really am just afraid you might have another miscarriage, that it won't be good for your body."

"So you want me to go to a doctor and get a certificate proving that I can have sex now?"

Xia Qiqi's emotions were clearly out of control.

Actually, during this period of being together, whenever the two of them clearly had those kinds of urges.

Nie Ziming would always find an excuse to brush it off.

Previously, she didn't make an issue of it.

But today, she had said it so clearly, yet Nie Ziming still rejected her!

"Qiqi, please calm down." Nie Ziming looked very flustered.

"I can't calm down!" Xia Qiqi shouted at Nie Ziming, "I can't find any reason why you won't touch me!"

"I really don't want to harm you." Nie Ziming explained, explaining over and over, "Qiqi, all these years we've been together, I've never really crossed the line either. It's not that I don't want to, I want to marry you properly. I..."

"I don't need you to marry me properly right now, I just want to sleep with you now. I don't care whether you marry me or not!"

"Qiqi, call it me being traditional if you want, but I really can't do that. And you're in a heated state right now, not hearing what I'm saying, so please calm down first."

"And how do you think I should calm down?" Xia Qiqi laughed sarcastically.

She had said this much already.

Yet Nie Ziming was still telling her to calm down.

"I'll send you home first, we can talk about it properly tomorrow."

"You go." Xia Qiqi said coldly to Nie Ziming.

Nie Ziming stared blankly at her.

"Go, let me be alone for a while."

Nie Ziming's throat moved slightly.

In the end, he stood up.

Xia Qiqi smiled, even more sarcastically.

"Qiqi, I really do hope we'll be better in the future." After saying that, Nie Ziming left.

Leaving as Xia Qiqi smiled through tears blurring her vision.

Was it really for their future to be better?

Or...

He simply no longer wanted to touch her.

Xia Qiqi picked up the red wine in front of her and drained it.

She then gestured for the server to bring her some higher proof liquor.

Drinking until she was utterly drunk.

So Nie Ziming would rather let her drink herself to death than compromise and sleep with her.

She could no longer tell if Nie Ziming still loved her or not...

Xia Qiqi stumbled out of the restaurant in a daze.

She hailed a taxi and gave an address to go back.

She thought.

Perhaps tomorrow, tomorrow she would understand.

The car reached its destination.

Xia Qiqi paid and staggered into the neighborhood, following the familiar path to the elevator, pressing the floor button, then entering the password.

The door opened.

Xia Qiqi pushed her way in.

She flung off the high heels from her feet in a parabolic arc.

Because of the heating, she also took off her coat, revealing the sexy lace dress underneath, or perhaps feeling the lace dress was also a burden, she took that off too.

Then she continued walking while stripping off her clothes one by one.

By the time she was lying on the bed, her entire body was completely naked.

Xiao Nanchen just watched as clothes littered his home's floor, watched the drunk, unconscious woman in his bedroom!
