Chapter 27

Cheng Yang said through gritted teeth.

Facing Cheng Yang’s dangerous gaze, Xiao Ying quickly adjusted her innocent expression.

“Brother, what are you talking about? I’m still young. I don’t understand.”

Xiao Ying felt that she had discovered some earth-shattering secret.

The mystery of high society in her past life had been solved just like that.

If she sold this information in the future, she didn’t know how much money she could get for it.

Cheng Yang knew at a glance that this girl was only pretending to be innocent.

He wasn’t angry.. He smiled.

“Since you don’t know, then forget it. Since you like it, let’s just read.”

When Xiao Ying heard the second half of Cheng Yang’s speech, her face turned black.

Would Cheng Yang not feel guilty about showing that to a ten-year-old girl?

But how could he take back his words?

Xiao Ying had an idea. “Brother, I don’t know how to read. Let’s just look at some drawings.”

“I can teach you. Bring it over.”

Cheng Yang’s words made Xiao Ying close her eyes helplessly and casually throw a book onto his table.

Because of his height, his desk was almost as tall as she was.

So she could only throw it.

Xiao Ying looked at the desk unhappily.

What had he bought such a high desk for?

Cheng Yang saw Xiao Ying’s embarrassment and couldn’t help but laugh.

He reached out and picked her up.

She could finally see the table clearly, but she felt a little uncomfortable sitting on Cheng Yang’s lap.

Cheng Yang had acted on impulse and was now even more uncomfortable than she was.

However, he felt that this sort of feeling was not bad, so he did not release her.

Xiao Ying stopped moving when she heard a notification from the amulet: ‘Energy Acceleration Absorption…’

Cheng Yang opened the book in his hand, looked at the title, and chuckled at Xiao Ying.

“Ying’er’s taste is really… unpredictable.”

Xiao Ying was unmoved with Cheng Yang’s mushy nickname.

She quickly looked at the cover of the book.

“The Importance of Sex to Men”

A bolt of lightning struck Xiao Ying’s head.

The row of dreadful books had made her pick up a random one in despair.

Who knew that it could only get worse?

She immediately wanted to change to another book.

Xiao Ying’s hand was already on the book.

“Hmm?”

Cheng Yang’s snort made Xiao Ying put down her hand.

If she were to change to another book at this time, she would expose herself. She had said that she could not read.

Cheng Yang avoided Xiao Ying’s gaze and searched for a page full of words, but there was no explicit content.

He placed the page in front of Xiao Ying.

Xiao Ying heaved a sigh of relief when she did not see anything that would mentally scar her.

She hadn’t even noticed Cheng Yang’s actions just now.

Being so close to Cheng Yang, not only was the amulet absorbing energy faster, but her soul also sped up with absorption.

Now, Xiao Ying was surrounded by Cheng Yang’s aura.

Xiao Ying’s attention was all on this.

Cheng Yang had the same reaction as her at breakfast.

Xiao Ying was shocked and quickly asked the amulet.

“Amulet. When my spirit absorbed Cheng Yang’s aura, could he feel it?”

“Master, I don’t know.”

The expected answer made Xiao Ying a little worried.

She stole a glance at Cheng Yang and found nothing unusual.

Well, she had felt something was wrong as soon as she entered the room.

If Cheng Yang had the same feeling, he must have noticed it long ago.

Xiao Ying had just calmed down when she heard Cheng Yang’s voice.

“Okay, let’s get started. I’ll read it to you.”

Xiao Ying looked back at Cheng Yang in disbelief, not believing that he could truly be such a pervert.

He was actually reading this kind of book for a ten-year-old girl!?

Seeing Xiao Ying’s thunderous expression, Cheng Yang’s expression changed and he smiled.

He gave her a knowing look.

Xiao Ying was a little angry and speechless.

She could only watch as Cheng Yang’s mouth slowly opened.
