Huo Jiuxiao looked at Lin Wanli’s lips and listened to the voice in her heart.

[Even though we sleep in the same bed, use the same GPS, and hugged and kissed so many times, I still feel that you’re very distant. Although my rationality reminds me not to be anxious, every time I see an opportunity, I cannot help but grab it to prove that I am different from others in your heart.]

[Forget it. Let’s not give myself too high of an expectation. That way, I won’t be disappointed. ]

Lin Wanli did not want an answer anymore after preparing her heart.

However, Huo Jiuxiao lifted her chin and forced her to look at him.

“Do you think that if it was another woman in the hotel two years ago, I would have had sex with her and taken her away?

Lin Wanli did not say anything, but there was a voice in her heart.

[Isn’t it?]

“There are countless women who have been sent to my bed and women who have taken the initiative to throw themselves into my arms, but the one who has truly gotten me is only you.” Huo Jiuxiao snorted coldly.

That night two years ago, she was drugged, but he was very sober. He had seen such a scene at least eight times in the past few years. He tried his best to calm her down, but his body temperature rose when he touched her. Moreover, he felt that he was very familiar with Lin Wanli.

Until she shouted, “Huo Jiuxiao, help me. Please help me. Take me.”

At that moment, his brain exploded, and he was extremely crazy. Although he really wanted to understand the voice in her heart, she was too confusing. Even so, he could feel that she had deep feelings for him.

When she woke up the next day, the truth was revealed. She had been reborn and thought that he had been reborn as well.

Lin Wanli’s eyes lit up, and her hands that were hugging Huo Jiuxiao’s waist started to sweat. However, she did not ask any more questions. Huo Jiuxiao had already brought her into the car.

Song Huaishu was around, so it was not good to talk about personal matters.

However, she did not expect Huo Jiuxiao to close the car window, pinch her chin, and kiss her. Just like before, he was full of vigor and indulgence. Huo

Jiuxiao only stopped when Song Huaishu could not take it anymore and opened the window of the driver’s seat, letting the cool breeze in. However, he pressed against Lin Wanli’s nose and said, “Don’t be touched just because a man has shown you some kindness. He has to at least be willing to lose his life for you to be considered to care for you.”

[No, it’s just because it’s you.]

At this moment, Huo Jiuxiao could not stand Lin Wanli’s passionate feelings, so he hugged her and held her in his arms, calming himself down.

Lin Wanli was a little confused. She simply quieted down and forced herself to think about other things. However, no matter how hard she tried, she was still excited by Huo Jiuxiao’s answer.

In the dim light, Huo Jiuxiao felt helpless.

He did not say anything in front of the two of them, but every word he said in his heart was that he liked her.

They finally made it home and fortunately, Lin Wanli rushed to the children’s room as soon as she got out of the car. Huo Jiuxiao watched her leave and turned to instruct Song Huaishu, “Pick me up tomorrow morning and send

Madam to the airport first.”

“Yes.” Song Huaishu was extremely happy.

If he could tie Madam to Master Xiao’s belt, then the days of the subordinates would be heaven in the future.

Lin Wanli went to the children’s room to look at Youran. After she personally coaxed the little darling to sleep, she handed him over to Aunt Qi. She wanted to take a shower in the room before going to the opposite room. However, a sudden bang made Lin Wanli rush over recklessly.

Huo Jiuxiao had broke a cup, but he did not know it. Lin Wanli’s heart tightened when she saw the broken pieces by his feet. So she quickly ran over and blocked Huo Jiuxiao behind her.

[Tomorrow, I have to ask Aunt Qi to put away all the glassware in the house.

What else? I have to think carefully…]

Huo Jiuxiao listened to her thoughts and carried her by the waist, placing her on the bed. “Go take a shower.”

“I’ll go get my pajamas.” Lin Wanli glanced at him. The tips of her ears were slightly red.

Huo Jiuxiao, however, used his eyes to point at his wardrobe.

Lin Wanli instantly understood, so she jumped off the bed and went to choose his shirt.

When she came out of the bathroom, the glass shards on the floor were already lying in the trash can. Huo Jiuxiao was also lying on the bed, but there was still room for her.

Lin Wanli turned off the lights and went to bed, leaving only a dim yellow wall lamp.

At this moment, Huo Jiuxiao’s voice rang in her ear. “It’s normal for you today, but it might not be the same tomorrow.”

“It’s already very good. Is there anything to look forward to tomorrow?” Lin Wanli asked.

“No.” Huo Jiuxiao’s voice was very calm.

“Then, come with me after you’re done with the company’s matters tomorrow.” Huo Jiuxiao did not agree, nor did he refuse. He just calmly closed his eyes.

Lin Wanli looked at his face and emptied herself. However, in the darkness, she held his hand.

[Are you already looking at me?]

It was late at night in the Lin Family’s house, and the lights in the study were still on. Qin Huaijing locked the door and hid inside to secretly call the mother and daughter of the Ye Family.

“In order not to cause any more trouble, forget about the press conference. I’m afraid that bitch Lin Wanli will play tricks again. I’ll arrange for reporters to come over and interview her.” Qin Huaijing said over the phone.

“I’ve prepared a diagnosis report on Lin Xueyi’s mental disorder for you. When the time comes, Lin Wanli won’t be able to make a fuss. I’ll send it to you tomorrow morning.” Mother Ye said.

“Weiyin, you’re so thoughtful.” Qin Huaijing praised Mother Ye in surprise.

“Today, I received news that Lin Wanli left to see the Yue Group. However, the Yue Group didn’t give her any face and directly kicked her out. Lin Wanli didn’t consider her own status. The Yue Group hated that old thing so much. Why would they cooperate with her? Trash was still trash. So we don’t need to worry about her for now. Let Lin Xueyi take the blame for you first.”

“Huaijing, you have to handle this matter well. If there are any more problems, I won’t be able to help you.”

“Don’t worry, you’ve already made all the preparations for me. I’ll definitely take back what belongs to me.” Because to Qin Huaijing, Lin Xueyi’s diagnosis was irrefutable evidence.

As long as Lin Xueyi came out and took over all the scandals, he could rest easy.

The next morning, it was drizzling and the entire coastline was covered in thick fog.

After Lin Wanli washed Youran up and made breakfast, she left with Huo Jiuxiao and headed to the airport.

“Just put me at Entrance 3.”

Huo Jiuxiao glanced at her and did not say anything. After the car stopped, he pushed the door open and got out of the car first. He made way for her and held up an umbrella.

Lin Wanli entered the umbrella and looked up at him. “Send me a message after the meeting with the Board of Directors.”

Huo Jiuxiao twirled the stray strands of hair by her lips and handed the umbrella handle to her before getting back into the car.

However, the two of them did not expect the Yue Group’s car to be right behind them….
