Quick Transmigration: Sorry, I Never Loved You - Chapter 207
Xu Jiaqi made Tang Yizhou stagger backwards until he was pinned against the sofa. She used her hand to push him down to a sitting position, before pinching the tip of his chin and pulling it upwards gently.
With a playful whistle, she smirked.
“..Miss Xu, what are you trying to do?” Tang Yizhou quickly became nervous and panicked. He tried his hardest to resist any visible changes, but it was too late by the time Xu Jiaqi placed one hand on top of his chest.
His rapid beating heart, and the pretty flush that appeared on top of his face was enough evidence for Xu Jiaqi to figure out more about this man’s intentions. At the very least, his reactions were honest.
She did not see any signs of possible fraud, and the man truly did seem flustered.
‘Cute.’
Her luck was truly the best. She was welcomed by such a treat right after coming here. Not to mention, the man was also interested in her.
Giggling, she got off the man. “Nothing much. Let’s go and have the dinner you promised?”
Tang Yizhou was left baffled. He didn’t say it out loud, but a large pit of disappointment formed inside his heart. He sat still for a few seconds before his rationality began to return, standing up to escort the lady to their next destination.
He sighed in despair. What was he thinking? Xu Jiaqi was someone he shouldn’t touch.

After their fiery first real meeting, Xu Jiaqi and Tang Yizhou exchanged contacts and kept in touch with each other. Tang Yizhou would regularly ask Xu Jiaqi out, and they would spend some time together without actually having a proper relationship status.
She even got to meet his younger brother, Tang Yixiu, who recognized Xu Jiaqi in an instant. At first, he was a bit weirded out, but after seeing how his brother began to gradually recover as Xu Jiaqi appeared more and more, he fully accepted this new presence and welcomed her.
Xu Jiaqi continued her work as a streamer, making large amounts of money by the side thanks to the System’s help. Her viewer counts began to exponentially increase due to her crazed and peculiar habits at handling money.
It couldn’t be helped, her character was just too out of the world. Strange, yet captivating. The beauty who had endless money, one that you couldn’t take your eyes off of no matter how hard you tried.
Naturally, a lot of backlash followed her wherever she went. Many criticized her, but she never actually did something wrong, so no one could actually do anything to her.
Xu Jiaqi continued to grow, until her daily viewership entered the thousands with each livestreams she would do. Having a mixed audience with an array of different opinions on her, Xu Jiaqi treaded carefully, maintaining the balance of her character with her plans.
She wanted to have a big enough platform in which she could launch her big guns and successfully create a wave throughout the whole world. To do that, she would probably need a lot more time.
Xu Jiaqi was still underage when she first met Tang Yizhou. She couldn’t afford to get herself in serious trouble. Her partner was Tang Yizhou- a bigshot that lots of people would recognize at first glance. She couldn’t just do whatever she wanted in this case.
Tomorrow, she would turn into an adult. Today, she was still in an ambiguous session with Tang Yizhou. It was as if they had done everything, and yet have actually done nothing.
They were completely in tune with each other, but the final push lied within her turning into an adult.

“Tang Yizhou, do you not like it when I do this? Push me away, then. Push me away with all your strength and chase me out. You can do it, you know?” Xu Jiaqi tugged the man’s head down and positioned her lips right beside the man’s ears, letting out soft and warm breaths to further rouse the man’s reactions.
They met up with each other hours ago, both deciding to take this day off because it was going to be Xu Jiaqi’s ascension to becoming an adult in a few hours. As always, they ‘played’ together, engaging in intimate gestures and positions.
“I..” Tang Yizhou was afraid to speak, since his mind was not in the right place. What if he blurted out something terrible? The heat of the moment got to his head and clouded his decision making skills.
“Hmm? You what?” Xu Jiaqi locked her eyes with the other, holding his face up so he couldn’t break the eye contact unless he willingly pulled away. “Speak clearly for me.”
“It’s not like I don’t like it..” Tang Yizhou replied softly. His hands were shy at first, but as Xu Jiaqi didn’t show any signs of backing off, he started to pick up his bravery and let his own hands roam over the woman in front of him.
His touches were shaky and as light as a feather, but Xu Jiaqi only needed those as a sign of his consent.
“If you don’t dislike it.. Then shall we continue on?”
“Qiqi.. Do you like me?” Tang Yizhou questioned.
This matter had always weighed on his heart heavily. Now that the pressing moment was near, he wanted to make real decisions from now on. One that concerned how their status was going to turn out to be.
As soon as Xu Jiaqi entered adulthood, he longed to confess. He had already planned it for so long. This wish of his, although he was so excited to finally do it, a large shadow was also cast above his heart. One that wondered anxiously. Full of ‘what ifs’ and negative assumptions.
He still viewed Xu Jiaqi as someone that was out of his reach. It wasn’t like he had no self confidence, it was just that Xu Jiaqi’s case was different. He was addicted to her just like how someone would grow addicted to substances.
He was afraid that the more he indulged himself in this, the more he set himself up for a lunge towards the pits of hell. He wouldn’t be able to come back and recover the moment she decided to disappear from him.
Xu Jiaqi grew silent, making his worries spike up even more.
“..I might not be as interested as you are in me, but I’m willing to try out new things.” Xu Jiaqi got closer to the man’s face, staying in front of him within a breath’s width. “Tang Yizhou, don’t tell me you thought I was a conservative lady at first.. Or maybe you think these actions are immoral? Do you feel like you’re being defiled?”
Xu Jiaqi wanted to lead the innocent lamb down to the depths of darkness.
“Of course.. not.” Tang Yizhou gulped. Somehow, he was fine with the advances. He didn’t dislike them.. In fact, it made his heart race, and he could feel the clear sexual tension overwhelming his senses as he spoke.
Xu Jiaqi grinned in delight. “Close your eyes, will you?”
Tang Yizhou did as told, and waited for whatever was about to come.
The gift that Xu Jiaqi chose was… a tingly sensation on his lips, a fluttery kiss that made him want to crave for more.
His entire body became rigid. What must he do in this situation? He wondered if the choices he made was right. If he was heading down the right path and not one that would be the catalyst to his downfall.
Xu Jiaqi had always warned him. From their first meeting, she stated that she was dangerous. And he was always made aware of this fact.
And yet, he didn’t wish to heed such a warning and chose to stay here, be here, and exist right beside the woman.
He didn’t want their exchange to be a casual one. He was truly interested in Xu Jiaqi. It didn’t take long before he realized this fact. Added on to his secretary’s assistance, he quickly sorted out his feelings and learned to express it.
To tell the truth, when this all began, he truly had zero experience, and was extremely lost. His moments of youth had been lost due to grinding towards his future, wanting to improve his living conditions at all costs while simultaneously chasing his aspirations.
For romantic relationships.. He was extremely dense and uneducated. He didn’t have time to develop such things, to the point where his secretary had to identify what he was feeling a lot of times. His emotional foundation was lacking, it needed a lot of polishing.
After meeting Xu Jiaqi, all of this needed to change. He forced himself to adapt to realizing that his everchanging emotions were something that he had to deal with no matter what in order to proceed.
And after a few months of initiation, he had indeed grown in that department.
Along with it, his seed of worries bloomed uncontrollably, leading to the current point.
Where his emotions were at the peak, about to explode.
