Chapter 44

“Clean the mess up as fast as possible.”

Pei Siyan gave in; he angrily stared at the chips on the ground and walked toward the bathroom agitatedly after finished talking to Jiang Sheng.

“Cleaning right up! Right now!”

Jiang Sheng sat up quickly and yelled, “Xi Que.”

“I’m here.”

The maid Xi Que had already shown up by the door with the cleaning tool in her hands the moment Jiang Sheng finished his sentence.

“How do you know everything I want you to do? You are just amazing! You can show up at any place, any time as if you know magic!”

Jiang Sheng gasped in admiration while stroking his chin, watching Xi Que doing the cleanup.

Xi Que was a maid who looked rather young and clean. She couldn’t really be regarded as a beauty but definitely had an unforgettable look.

Xi Que remained silent; she nodded at Jiang Sheng after finishing sweeping the floor, and then left.

Jiang Sheng unhappily curled his lips, but he had already got used to the silence of Xi Que because Xi Que had been the one taking care of his daily life for the past week.

“Oh god, I’m bored!”

Jiang Sheng lay down in bed while gazing at the ceiling blankly.

Afraid of him running away, Pei Lele had locked him in the room for a week and now he was sick of it.

Jiang Sheng gazed at the ceiling for ten minutes. Just as he was about to get up, Pei Siyan suddenly came into his sight, and he was looking down at him with his eyebrows furrowed.

‘Oh yeah, I haven’t apologized to him for talking trash about his wife who’s gone already.’

Jiang Sheng tried to turn over and get up. But because he had been lying for too long, his body became numb and he couldn’t get up.

‘Damn! Seriously?’

Jiang Sheng’s face fell. He held the edge of the bed, trying to get up again. But as his belly got bigger lately, he couldn’t get up on his own.

Being helpless, Jiang Sheng suddenly had a fit, “Are you blind or something? Can’t you see that I can’t get up on my own? Come and give me a hand!” He yelled at Pei Siyan who was watching this indifferently.

“What? Is that the attitude you should have while begging for help?” Pei Siyan crossed his arms and didn’t reach out to him.

Jiang Sheng couldn’t say anything about that. He was grinding his teeth in anger but could only beg Pei Siyan for help. Thus, he cracked a smile reluctantly, “Could you please lend a helping hand? Thank you very much!”

‘F**k that! You are the one that gets me pregnant! You have to be responsible for me when I have trouble moving around!”

“That’s it?”

“What? What the f**k do you want exactly? Are you messing with me? Help me up! Now! I can’t feel my legs now!”

Jiang Sheng lost his temper. Not only did he yell at Pei Siyan, but he also gave him a middle finger and an angry stare.

‘Damn it! Does it hurt to lend me a hand?’

“Fine! I won’t beg you. I’ll f**king get up myself!”

Jiang Sheng bit his lower lip and flipped over with difficultly. Just as he felt the pressure on his belly was making him sick, his body suddenly was in mid-air. When he blinked and realized what had happened, he was already held in Pei Siyan’s arms with their eyes meeting.

“F**k! Why don’t you just say you will help me at the beginning? Do you have to wait until I felt pain?”

Jiang Sheng scolded Pei Siyan once he got the chance to do so. Also, he gave him a stare.

Pei Siyan didn’t say anything. He just looked at the face of Jiang Sheng quietly. After a gentle touch on his face, he asked, “Did you behave well and stay here as I told you to?”

Tenderness was all over Pei Siyan’s voice when he said that; even his voice became softer.

Jiang Sheng felt a bit upset all of a sudden because he knew the man was not being nice and gentle to him. Actually, he was being gentle to his face.

‘What is it? You can be gentle to whoever owns this face?’

Jiang Sheng was jealous. For the very first time, he was upset about this.
