Auntie Li then shared the rough recipe with Madam.
After hearing this, Lin Wan requested, “Please prepare less of those dishes. It’s sufficient for Yichen. Make me some vegetable porridge instead. I’m not very hungry tonight and just want something light.”
She hadn’t had much of an appetite today. Despite her light meal in the afternoon, she wasn’t hungry now and preferred something easy on the stomach for dinner.
“Of course, Madam,” Auntie Li replied courteously, as she naturally complied with her mistress’s wishes.
In the evening, Lin Wan and Xiao Yichen dined in the dining room. After Lin Wan consumed two small bowls of porridge, she ascended to the study.
In the afternoon, she took leave and had no work. So, she wanted to spend some quiet time in the study, hoping to find inspiration and create some designs.
Xiao Yichen guessed Lin Wan went to study to work so he didn’t disturb her. He sat alone in the living room, watching television.
Lin Wan accessed her cloud drive on her computer and reviewed the meticulously organized information. Subsequently, she delved into her design work.
A serene night proved ideal for creativity. When Lin Wan completed her tasks, it was nearly eleven o’clock.
Upon returning to the bedroom, Lin Wan washed up and settled into bed. As she lay down, Xiao Yichen drew her into his embrace.
“Wan’er…” Xiao Yichen whispered intimately, leaning down to kiss Lin Wan.
Lin Wan anticipated his intentions and promptly turned her face away, preventing his kiss.
Xiao Yichen felt somewhat surprised by the missed kiss. Beneath the subdued light, he gazed at Lin Wan’s profile.
“I’m very tired. Let’s go to sleep,” Lin Wan said calmly, closing her eyes in preparation for slumber.
Iler chilly demeanor made Xiao Yichen feel frustrated but helpless.
He could not do much, even when she bothered him.
Xiao Yichen could only hold Lin Wan and restrain his impulses that night.
However, during the latter half of the night, Xiao Yichen found himself unable to endure any longer. After watching the sleeping woman in his arms, he rose gently from the bed and took a cold shower.
The torment of not engaging in physical intimacy with her was truly unbearable.
With the dawn of a new day, Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan went to work after breakfast.
Meanwhile, Xu Yanxi set out early for Blue Bay villa. Upon her arrival, she encountered Auntie Li, the nanny of Blue Bay villa, but saw neither Xiao Yichen nor Lin Wan.
“Where’s Lin Wan?” Xu Yanxi inquired of the nanny, her visage fraught with anger.
“Madam has gone to work,” Auntie Li responded. Her attitude was less than respectful, as she knew this visitor had unpleasant intentions.
Xu Yanxi was neither invited by the master nor mistress, so Auntie Li had no incentive to be polite. Moreover, she presumed this woman had harmed Madam in the past, making her disposition less than friendly.
“Why isn’t that woman gone? Does she think she can disregard my instructions?” Xu Yanxi vented her frustration. I gave her a three-day ultimatum. It seems that Lin Wan has no intention of complying. This woman had grown too audacious.
“Please use more respectful language,” Auntie Li advised the woman. “Madam will not leave. She is the mistress of this house.”
“Heh, mistress?” Xu Yanxi snickered and retorted to the nanny, “Open your eyes and see clearly. I’m the mistress here. The person Chen loves is me.”
Auntie Li had no desire to continue talking with the woman because of her irrational persistence. She walked over to the fence gate and pressed the doorbell button. In response, several security guards emerged from the villa..
