Su Hongxing let out a delicate yawn and stood up. “Qilan, please entertain Miss Mo for me. I’m going to retire for the night.”
Typically a less active person, she didn’t like to overthink or speak much. Tonight, she had over-exerted herself by engaging Mo Qiu’s provocations.
“Mo Qiu, you should go home. Hongxing and I are going to bed.” After Ye Qilan finished, he didn’t look at Mo Qiu again. He walked side by side with Su Hongxing.
Mo Qiu was left alone, watching the pair walking away. Beneath her jealousy, there was also a hint of envy.
She had followed Ye Qilan for such a long time, why did Ye Qilan choose to marry Su Hongxing over her?
She dearly wished to spend every day and night with Ye Qilan and to wake up in the morning to his face.
Before she left, Mo Qiu gifted Xiaole an expensive bracelet. Xiaole happily accepted the gift, promising to keep her informed about Su Hongxing’s every move.
Meanwhile, ever since she and Ye Qilan entered the main room together, Su Hongxing felt a little uneasy.
She could handle Ye Qilan’s extramarital affairs without any problem, but she surely didn’t want to spend time alone with a man she barely knew, let alone have physical contact with him.
Ye Qilan, she had to admit, had a powerful aura. Even though he seemed harmless, she felt pressure simply being by his side.
When they reached the second floor, she was about to enter the guest room when Ye Qilan’s voice echoed from behind her, “We’re married. Are you sure you want to sleep in separate rooms?”
The back of her head was locked in his gaze. The moment he said those words, she noticeably stiffened.
Indeed, this woman had just said that even if she were to divorce, she would never be desperate over a man.
Moving closer, he reached out and touched her waist, feeling her body jump in response.
His fingers pinched her waist. Soft and plump, it was a rather nice sensation.
He whispered into her ear, “Let’s go, time to sleep…”
“Um, I’m not sleepy yet. I want to watch a little television before bed.” Su Hongxing interrupted him, quickly extricating herself from his grasp and ran downstairs.
Ye Qilan only managed to catch a glimpse of her fluttering dress as she disappeared down the hallway.
From his position, he dialed the intercom, “Xiaole, lead Su Hongxing into the master bedroom.”
Xiaole was confused. She eyed the woman who was lounging on the sofa watching television, wondering if she had heard that wrong.
She asked tentatively, “Sir, are you asking me to bring Madam into your bedroom?”
“No matter how you do it, just get her inside.” Ye Qilan ordered before hanging up.
Xiaole now was sure of the instructions. She couldn’t procrastinate any longer, so she went to Su Hongxing and said, “Madam, please retire to your room.”
Su Hongxing hugged the pillow tighter, “1 am not sleepy yet. 1 want to watch a bit more of the TV. If it’s bothering you, 1 can turn down the volume.”
Sir insists, so Madam, please. Don’t put me in a tough situation.” Xiaole reinforced her tone, but her eyes darted over Su Hongxing’s figure.
Unbelievable! Would Ye Qilan really allow Su Hongxing to sleep in his master bedroom?
Su Hongxing inhaled deeply, “I said, 1 want to watch the TV!!”
Seeing her words have no effect, Xiaole had no choice but to use a bit of force.
Su Hongxing clung to the back of the sofa, “What are you doing, let me go!”
Damn maid. How come she is stronger than herself? Even though her body was sturdier than Xiaole’s..
