Ming Xi trembled, forced to meet his piercing gaze. She slightly moved her red lips, but couldn't utter a single word.
"How about using your lifetime of happiness and self-esteem as collateral?" Xue Qi's pair of eyes instantly turned cold, while his mouth curved in a mocking smile!
Ming Xi froze, looking into Xue Qi's bottomless eyes, completely lost. She could not see the road ahead. She did not know how to proceed.
Ming Xi's feet suddenly rose high into the air. She was so frightened that she almost let out a scream. She was then carried by Xue Qi.
After that, he walked out of the bathroom with big strides, went to the bedroom, and threw Tantai Xi onto the bed. Then, he stared at the woman who was flustered and helpless on the bed with an expressionless face.
Ming Xi pulled the quilt over her body, staring at Xue Qi in fear, not knowing what he was going to do next!
Forced him? Thinking back to the torture of living a life worse than death, Ming Xi wrapped herself even more tightly.
Xue Qi was shocked. He threw his bathrobe on Tantai Xi's face, then said coldly, "Get down!"
Ming Xi trembled as she hastily put on her clothes. Then, she jumped off the bed and quickly laid down on the ground. She curled up into a ball like a shrimp and tightly closed her eyes, afraid that he would be dragged into her rage again.
However, he still couldn't help but cry.
Her heart felt like it was about to be frozen! She should not have fantasized about him. After all, he was just a heartless, gentle man who only cared about a woman. He had to hide from her as soon as possible. That man can't love, once he falls in love, he is doomed to die like a moth to the flame.
It was just that she didn't know why she was suddenly a little interested in him. Perhaps, it was only because on the day of the operation …
He walked to the bedside and saw the blanket that had been messed up by Tsui Xi. Frowning, he threw the blanket on the ground, turned around and took out a new blanket from the wardrobe, "The thing that you touched makes me feel disgusted!"
Ming Xi shrank back, pretending not to hear him.
Xue Qi turned off the light in shock and was preparing to rest, but after lying down for less than three minutes, the door was opened widely and the light suddenly turned on. He then shouted furiously, "You little rascal, I'll beat you to death!"
Old Lady Xue rushed forward and pulled Xue Qi up from the bed, then looked at Ming Xi, who was sitting up straight from her shock. With moist eyes, she raised her palm and slapped Xue Qi's handsome face heavily and said, "You heartless fellow, Ming Xi has just recovered from her severe illness. You actually let her sleep on the floor, you … I'll beat you to death! "
"Pa!" A clear sound resounded throughout the room.
The news she got from the servants were indeed correct. She did not believe that her grandson would be so cold-blooded and cold towards a weak girl. But seeing was believing, she had no choice but to believe. Never in her wildest dreams had she thought that he would be like this.
Xue Qi paused in shock. Five bright red handprints were imprinted on his handsome left cheek. He turned his face to the side and maintained his posture of being beaten. However, a cold light flashed across his eyes.
"You beast, how can you treat your own wife? "Even if you don't like her, you can't do this …" Old Lady Xue scolded angrily. Due to her extreme anger, she was gasping for air.
Xue Qi remained silent in shock, standing still on the spot.
The servants who had been roused from their sleep were gathered outside the door. When they saw this scene, they were so frightened that their bodies trembled slightly.
"You heartless fellow, you actually … I must teach you a good lesson today! " Old Lady Xue couldn't hold back her anger any longer. She raised her hand with the intention of slapping him again.
Seeing this, Ming Xi immediately got up and grabbed Old Lady Xue's hand, begging her, "Grandmother, don't blame him. I didn't want to sleep on the bed. Grandmother, don't hit him!"
"Do you think I would believe you?" When Old Lady Xue saw that Mingxi was obviously wronged, but still insisted on protecting Xue Qi, she felt a surge of anger in her heart and said, "You like sleeping on the floor? If you like it, how come you don't even have a blanket or a pillow? "
Ming Xi grabbed Old Lady Xue's hand and bit her lips. Her eyes immediately reddened as her voice faltered. "Because it's too hot in the summer, I don't like sleeping on the bed at all …"
Xue Tai Lao looked at Tsai Xi with a pampering look. At the same time, he felt that it was not worth it for her to protect him.
"She doesn't have the right to sleep in my bed. How can a low-leveled person have the right to sleep in my bed?" Xue Qi suddenly gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "Han Qingxi, tell this to Grandma. Do you think that you can become the Young Lady of the Xue Clan just because you have her by your waist? I tell you, delusional! "As long as I, Xue Qi, am here, you will forever be a dog that I keep by my side!"
Ming Xi's body stiffened as she desperately tried to explain, "Young master, I didn't tell grandma. I didn't say anything. I really didn't!"
"Do you think I would believe you?" Xue Qi's pair of eyes shone with a fierce, cold light. His tightly clenched fists let out creaking sounds that were made by adding bones to each other.
"I …" Mingxi was about to explain, but old lady Xue pushed her and she fell awkwardly onto the bed.
"Today, if I don't teach you a lesson, if I don't beat you to death, you cold-blooded animal, then I'm not your grandmother!" Finishing her sentence, old lady Xue raised her heavy palm and started waving it towards Xue Qi.
Seeing this, Ming Xi hurriedly got up from the bed, ran up to Xue Qi and stopped him, "Grandma, don't hit him!"
"Pa!" Another crisp sound rang out from the room, followed by a dull sound of "putong".
Mingxi felt dizzy from Old Lady Xue's slap and fell heavily onto the floor due to her unstable center of gravity.
Old Lady Xue was flustered. She hurriedly supported Tsai Xi, looking at her left cheek which had instantly swelled up as a result. Her face was full of reproach. "Why are you so foolish? He was the one who bullied you, but you still protected him! "You made my heart feel uncomfortable on purpose …"
Ming Xi sobbed. The pain from her left and right caused her tears to fall. She grumbled in dissatisfaction, "Grandmother, I already told you. I like to sleep on the floor. If you don't believe me, I like to sleep on the floor …" Why are you blaming the young master? "My face hurts so much …"
"You …" For a short while, Mrs. Xue didn't know what to say. She could only glare at Xue Qi resentfully. She held Tantai Xi up and said harshly, "From now on, you can only sleep on the bed. If you dare to sleep on the floor again, I'll be angry!"
Ming Xi glanced at Xue Qi, but didn't say anything. Xue Qi was extremely shocked and had a headache. He raised his hand and covered his forehead.
"Ming Xi, go sleep on the bed!" Old Lady Xue ordered.
Ming Xi stood still, not daring to move. He could only stare at Xue Qi in shock.
"Ming Xi, are you going to piss me off?" Mingxi was so frightened that she immediately jumped onto the bed.
"Get the fuck down!" Xue Qi's eyes instantly turned cold. He growled at Ming Xi in a low voice.
Ming-xi jumped out of bed as soon as she was ordered.
Old Lady Xue pouted and stared at Xue Qi, then said in shock, "If you dare to let her sleep on the floor again, I'll let you sleep on the floor!"
Then, he pushed her onto the bed, covered her with the quilt and was about to leave when he turned back to warn her, "I will check the room from time to time. If I find that Ming Xi is still sleeping on the floor, I will tell you! And if you don't want to sleep in the same bed as her, well, the floor is clean, you can sleep! "
Saying this, he happily left the room.
As for Xue Qi, he was shocked and his facial expression twitched. Then, he raised his head and roared loudly towards the sky in a great rage. He was about to die from anger!
Ming Xi was so frightened that she immediately pulled her body up and tried to get off the bed. However, Xue Qi yelled in shock, "You still want me to be slapped by Grandmother, don't you?" Ming Xi's body stiffened as she hastily apologized, "I'm sorry, I got beaten up because of me. I'm sorry!"
Xue Qi took a step forward and walked over to the bed, grabbed the lapel of Liu Xi's shirt and growled in a low voice, "I'm warning you, if you dare to mention these things to my grandma again, I'll make you wish you were dead!"
"I didn't …" Ming Xi wanted to explain. She didn't say a word to old lady Xue, not knowing how she had found out.
"Also, from today onwards, my grandma will be at the Xue Clan. You can pretend to be Young Mistress. Remember, you must pretend to be her. If she's not at the Xue Family, she'll be your maid! " Ming Xi lowered her head and nodded vigorously.
Xue Qi sneered, then fell on the bed, pulled all the blankets over his body, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
As for Tantai Xi, she tried her best to sleep by the side of the bed with her back facing Xue Qi in shock. She curled up in a ball, but could not fall asleep no matter what.
Why was it colder on the bed than on the floor? Tears dripped onto the pillow one by one, and eventually the pillow became wet …
