But every time he smiled at her, Su Zixi couldn’t help but think of the phrase “wolf in sheep’s clothing.”
His every move seemed to possess an indescribable allure.
Su Zixi covered her flushed cheeks in annoyance.
In her chaotic thoughts, she caught that scent again... that unique scent from He Jingyao, emanating from his shirt.
Su Zixi decided to cover her nose as well!
She couldn’t give him another chance to charm her!
Come to think of it, with his upbringing, He Shao must have received a good education, taking off his clothes in front of others and tossing them on the floor... Was this something a well-mannered man would do?
Unless... he did it on purpose!
Realizing this, Su Zixi felt she might have made a rash decision.
She felt like a lamb walking into the lion’s den.
He Shao was still in the bathroom. It wouldn’t be appropriate to just walk away now; she should at least wait until he came out and greet him... but would she have a chance to leave once he came out?
Also, she hadn’t seen the surveillance footage yet... She wouldn’t be satisfied without the evidence.
Blushing, Su Zixi called again in a louder voice, “He Shao, are you okay?”
After half a minute, there was still no response.
Su Zixi finally couldn’t stand it, what if He Shao suddenly fell ill?
Gritting her teeth, she pushed the door open and walked in!
There was still a slight mist lingering in the bathroom, but at a glance, it was empty! Only the water in the bath rippled slightly.
Could he have fainted in the bath?
Su Zixi’s face turned pale! She bolted to the edge of the bathtub, reaching her hand into the water and calling anxiously, “He Shao!”
She quickly touched a piece of hard, slippery muscle. The next second, a strong arm encircled her waist!
The world spun, and water splashed everywhere!
By the time Su Zixi realized what was happening, she was already dripping wet, lying in the bathtub...
To be precise, lying on top of a man. Her hand was resting on his taut, sexy chest.
He Jingyao emerged halfway from the water, revealing his defined torso. He wiped the water from his face and smiled slightly, “What are you doing?”
Su Zixi’s face turned from white to red, then red to green, and green to red again...
“I... I... I thought something happened to you.” She stammered, “I called you outside just now, but you didn’t answer me...”
