“I know,” he said, with a smile in his eyes.
Rong Yan silently closed her mouth and buried her head in her coffee.
She was being laughed at, wasn’t she? She must have been laughed at…
She finished her cup of coffee in a couple of sips without really tasting it, and when she looked up, she noticed that Li Shengxiao had only drunk less than half of his.
“I’ll go get a refill, you stay here,” she said.
She felt as though she had lost all the face she had accumulated in the past twenty years!
Just as she stood up, the man who made a 1 yuan instant coffee taste noble put down his mug and suddenly said to her, “I want to take a bath.”
A bath, that meant using her bathroom?! contemporary romance
Inside, Rong Yan was extremely reluctant, but facing Li Shengxiao’s proud and handsome face, all her will to refuse swallowed back down, “My bathroom might be a bit small for you.”
In reality, it was not small at all. The reason she had chosen to rent this place was because it was close to Country Garden, and the old, run-down apartment had a proper private bathroom, which also had her favorite large bathtub. She could leisurely soak in it after a long day since the rent was relatively cheap.
She just didn’t want to share her bathtub.
Especially not with Li Shengxiao!
Rong Yan recalled the torrid scenes of that fiery night, and her ears began to burn uncontrollably at the thought of him using her bathroom for a shower.
“If you need it, I’ll go tidy it up.”
Her underwear was still hanging in there!
“Mhm.”
So he was going to use it!
Really has no manners…
Rong Yan resigned herself to the situation and mumbled, “I’ll get it ready!”
Li Shengxiao stood up, completely ‘oblivious’ to her reluctance, and gladly accepted her ‘kind’ offer.
Grinding her teeth, Rong Yan accepted her misfortune and went to serve the CEO.
She cleaned the bathroom like a maid, prepared the bathwater, and with a heavy heart, placed her expensive shower gel in plain sight before she finally left the bathroom.
She was wearing rubber gloves, and to avoid getting her hair wet, she had wrapped a small towel around her head, looking just like a servant.
In stark contrast, the man in the living room was suited and booted, the very image of a well-dressed scoundrel! No wonder someone with such a cold personality could dominate the top spot as the most desired son-in-law in entertainment circles year after year!
Rong Yan diverted her gaze and said, “Mr. Li, it’s ready.”
Li Shengxiao felt her gaze retreat from his body and, for some reason, a sense of loss crept into his chest. Damn it!
“Is it ready?”
“It is.”
He suppressed that feeling and stood up, as if he hadn’t noticed Rong Yan looking at him just a moment before. He walked over to her, and as he approached, he suddenly stopped and looked down slightly, reaching out his hand.
The scent of male hormones enveloped her, and Rong Yan’s first instinct was to dodge, abruptly turning her head away.
But her chin was firmly caught.
“Don’t move.”
His voice was low and hoarse.
It was downright soul-stirring!
The next second, she felt something being taken off her head, and as the person drew back, the overbearing presence disappeared from her.
“There was something on your head,” he said.
In Li Shengxiao’s open palm lay a piece of plastic scrap.
Rong Yan’s heart raced and her cheeks flushed; she couldn’t even bear to look at him and muttered an embarrassed “Thank you.”
She planned to make a quick escape.
But before she could get away, her wrist was seized..
