About half an hour later, Xi Xiaye got out unhurriedly from the bathroom and simply fixed her wet fringe as she turned to look at the bedside.

Mu Yuchen had kept away his phone and was casually browsing through her tablet.

As Xi Xiaye walked over, he kept the things away. Then, he turned to look at her as he helped her pull open the blanket and asked in a lowered voice, "What did you talk about with him for so long?"

Xi Xiaye casually pulled together her dark hair and slid underneath the blanket.

"What else could we have talked about? Just the same things. It feels like Han Yifeng's actually quite cold. When he becomes heartless, it's quite hard to get him back. Mr. Mu, will you be like that too? Be fickle in love?" She squinted at him, and then pulled over a pillow and leaned close to him.

"Fickle in love?" Mu Yuchen muttered softly as his dark eyes flashed with an indistinct light.

Xi Xiaye coughed softly. She shifted a bit and lay down. "When someone becomes heartless, it can really be terrifying. You should learn from this."

"Why should I learn from this? That's not a suitable lesson for me. Apart from you, I don't think anyone else can satisfy me," he said so matter-of-factly, and before Xi Xiaye could react, his slender fingers had accurately reached for the sash at her waist. He slowly undid it, and in a flash, the front of Xi Xiaye's robe was opened.

She had just finished showering, so she was obviously not wearing anything underneath, to his convenience.

Xi Xiaye knew what he was up to, so she immediately frowned. "Didn't we just..."

"We didn't do it last night," he said, and then he stripped her completely without caring about her slightly frowned brows. He covered her body with his and his cold kiss was felt on her lips.

Xi Xiaye sighed a little helplessly as she reached out to help him undo the sash at his waist too, taking off his sleeping robe. "Let's rest earlier tonight. Tomorrow will be a busy day and I have to rush to Los Angeles."

"We've been having quite a lot of fun these past few days. I'm not tired."

After Wang Hui's passing, Xi Xiaye was used to bringing her son to sleep in her room again, and he often could not have as much fun as he would have wanted.

The little guy had acute hearing. If you moved a bit too much, it would immediately wake him up. There were quite a few times when they were in the middle of a battle of lust and they turned to see their son sitting right beside them, much to their surprise.

"I think your potential for becoming a pervert is expanding. How did you even survive in the past?"

"It's fine when you haven't tried it, but I only feel this way about you. Aren't you happy about that? What a heartless woman!" His soft raspy voice sounded slightly magnetic as he smiled. "Serve me well, and I'll bring you to the nearby scenic areas in a few days."

"Are we roleplaying as an elderly gentleman and young servant now?" Xi Xiaye shot him a look, but her fair face could not help but blush.

"If you're willing, we can." Smiling devilishly, his tall figure leaned down tightly against her. Xi Xiaye sucked in a breath and then met his kiss. After that, she only held him tightly and let him demand as he wished...

After two rounds of lust-filled battles, Xi Xiaye pushed the man that was still on her away and said this with shaky breaths, "Mmm...Mr. Mu, you didn't use to be like this...not like this....you're making me feel like you really are....a wolf in sheep's skin..."

Mu Yuchen panted as he held her slender wrist. He said low and raspily, "Well, that means you really don't know men, Missus!"

Xi Xiaye lifted a hand to help him wipe away the thin layer of sweat on his forehead. "Only you would know. Hey, you seem quite tired recently. Apart from becoming thinner, your physical strength seems..."

Before Xi Xiaye could finish, Mu Yuchen already squinted his dark eyes that seemed to be filled with a hint of danger. "What's wrong with it?"

While Xi Xiaye lowered her gaze right now, she did not immediately react. She was about to answer when the atmosphere suddenly did not seem right, so she quickly looked up at him and realized that he was looking at her with a dangerous look.

She was stunned and could not help but shudder...

She almost forgot about what a prideful man he was. Besides, there was no way he would spare her!

Thus, before Xi Xiaye could respond, the third round had begun.

"I will prove with my actions that your husband's stamina is still so good that you'll beg for mercy."

"You..."

The results proved that Xi Xiaye was properly dealt with and she even embarrassingly cried in the end...

The next day Mu Yuchen woke up slightly late. Xi Xiaye was already awake, but she was hiding underneath the blanket and did not get out of bed. Later on, she fell asleep again. When she woke up once again, she realized it was already the afternoon. It was empty outside by the time she washed up and changed before stepping out of the bedroom.

It was obvious that the man was not around, but Li Si had just walked in through the door.

"Missus, you're awake." Li Si smiled.

Nodding, Xi Xiaye poured herself a cup of water and sat down. She took a sip before asking, "Where's your Master?"

"Missus, Master went to the hospital first thing in the morning, and then he met CEO Han for coffee before he made a trip to the office. He asked that you have something to eat when you wake up, and then leave for the airport at 3 p.m. He won't be coming back here and will just wait for you at the airport."

Not coming back here?

Was he going straight to Los Angeles?

Stunned, Xi Xiaye subconsciously looked up at the time on the clock and realized that it was already half past 1 p.m., so she quickly nodded. "Alright, I've got it."

"The attendants have served lunch. Have some to eat, Missus. It will take some time to get there, and it'll be dark by the time you reach," Li Si said.

"Mmm, thank you," Xi Xiaye responded.

"Right, what's your Master going to discuss with CEO Han? Didn't they meet yesterday?"

"CEO Han has some problems with his project. Since Master has a friendly relationship with the people here, he was just going to help CEO Han out. The person-in-charge from before was transferred to another post, thus the handover wasn't clear and CEO Han's matter was delayed," Li Si answered honestly.

"Project? Has Han Yifeng's business expanded here?"

"Yes, Missus, the company's invested a lot into this new product. It's not easy to get into the market here, especially when their foundation in New York is quite weak. If Master doesn't help out this time, I'm pretty sure they'll need to spend more manpower and resources."

After that, Xi Xiaye did not ask further and silently had her lunch. When she was done packing up, it was about time, so she made her way to the airport in the car that Li Si arranged.
