It was quite late when they got off the Ferris wheel. Xiao Bao held Fu Yanci's hand in one hand and Ye Li's hand in the other, skipping and hopping all the way, clearly in a good mood.
Ye Li, on the other hand, would laugh and make a fuss, and even make faces at Xiao Bao, but she would never look at him.
Fu Yanci let out a long sigh in his heart.
The Maybach sped back to the Lishan Mansion.
Once inside the villa, Ye Li patted Xiao Bao's head and said, "It's late, go to sleep early. We'll take you to do something else tomorrow!"
Xiao Bao nodded excitedly.
Ye Li turned around and went upstairs.
When Fu Yanci returned to the master bedroom, the large room was pitch black, with only a faint, damp fragrance in the air.
Knowing she was doing it on purpose, Fu Yanci looked helpless and went to the bathroom in the dark.
The sound of rushing water filled the air. Ye Li pulled back the covers and let out a soft sigh.
Ye Li herself couldn't explain what she was angry about.
Fu Yanci is petty; she has already apologized sincerely but he doesn't appreciate it.
Or is it something else that's making you angry?
Lost in thought, Ye Li didn't even realize when the sound of water had stopped.
The bathroom door opened with a hum, and a beam of light shone through. Ye Li snapped back to reality and quickly closed her eyes.
Fu Yanci realized the girl was pretending to be asleep almost the instant he lay down in bed.
Asleep, Ye Li was as relaxed as a sponge.
At this moment, she was as stiff as a piece of wood in the blanket.
Seeing the amusement in his eyes, Fu Yanci leaned over.
"Ye Li, I've already apologized, so it's all over. Can we not hold a grudge?"
A man's voice sounded in her ear, his breath brushing against her collar, making the hairs on Ye Li's neck stand up with a tingling sensation.
Ye Li pretended to be asleep and remained silent.
A muffled laugh rang out, "Mrs. Fu, do you know how bad your acting is? You're easily exposed?"
? ? ?
Ye Li froze.
Snap!
The bedside lamp was turned on.
She subconsciously opened her eyes and was met with the amused expression of the man above her.
Ye Li glared at him angrily, "You think it's over just like that? I haven't even gotten over it yet."
Fu Yanci raised an eyebrow. "Fine, then tell me why you're angry. If it's my fault, I'll apologize."
āIā¦ā I never coaxed Zhou Hechen in the same way.
The words were on the tip of his tongue, but the thought of mentioning "little uncle" made him angry, so it was clearly not the right time to bring up Zhou Hechen.
Ye Li remained silent.
Fu Yanci didn't press further, only saying softly, "Ye Li, it's my fault. I shouldn't have doubted you. I just get angry when I think about how you once wronged yourself to please others."
Ye Li was stunned.
Fu Yanci said in a deep voice, "There are many ways to apologize. If we are wrong, we will show our attitude and punish those who deserve it. However, the premise of punishment is that it cannot hurt self-esteem. Any way of apologizing that hurts self-esteem is wrong, understand?"
Ye Li never expected that while she guessed the beginning correctly, she didn't predict the ending.
Fu Yanci seemed like a different person at night; his features were gentler than during the day, and he was much more patient.
Ye Li gradually grew bolder, "So, we're even now, right?"
"right."
Fu Yanci nodded, and Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief.
The stiffness in my body gradually eased.
Fu Yanci approached, "There's something else I want to tell you..."
Ye Li looked up.
In the dim light, the man's eyes were deep and thoughtful. "Mrs. Fu, although your method of expressing remorse is not advisable, I like it very much!"
Before Ye Li could react to what he meant by those words...
The man lowered his head and gently captured her lips with his.
