Chapter 45 Chapter 45
The evening breeze blew in from the window. Qiao Yanrou moved a chair in front of the window, then sat down and enjoyed the tranquility of the night.
In another half month, Fu Chuqing probably won't look for her again. Qiao Yanrou didn't think she was so important that Fu Chuqing would lose his appetite. He... was a very calm person.
Her hair was blown dry and she felt sleepy. She yawned and lay on the bed. She picked up a corner of the quilt to cover herself and soon fell asleep.
She thought that the incident last night was over. The next day, when she came to the swimming pool to change the water with He Xiaoyu, the door opposite her was pushed open. Xue Yu was standing by the pool in a bathrobe, and his mixed-race eyes were looking at her across the pool.
Because they were quite far away and Qiao Yanrou was busy doing something, she didn't notice his gaze.
After the water in the swimming pool was changed, she sat in the shade as usual and watched Xue Yu swimming in the pool. She knew without looking that He Xiaoyu was going to "intercept" Xue Yu again.
Qiao Yanrou was passing the time by daydreaming, when suddenly a person emerged from the water in front of her.
Xue Yu swam to the edge of the swimming pool and looked at her with interest: "If I remember correctly, your name is Qiao Rou." He raised his hand to wipe away the water covering his eyes, looking so handsome that it made people scream.
Qiao Yanrou became a little alert. He must have seen her whole face last night, and she was afraid that he would have other thoughts.
"Yes." She answered coldly.
Xue Yu had a smile on his lips, admiring her rabbit-like defensiveness that was non-threatening.
"Would you like to go swimming?" he asked.
Qiao Yanrou decisively refused: "I don't want to."
It seemed that she had no interest in him at all, and Xue Yu found her even more interesting.
"You did a good job last night. Do you want to change your job?" he asked again.
Qiao Yanrou immediately replied to him: "I don't want to." Seeing him looking at her with interest,... another one came, but Xue Yu probably felt that it was the novelty of her that was at work.
Xue Yu was not in a hurry, but stared at her for several seconds before swimming leisurely to another place.
Qiao Yanrou breathed a sigh of relief. Her exposed appearance last night still caught Xue Yu's attention. She would wait a few days and see what happened.
Just as she felt relieved, He Xiaoyu, who had not spoken to Xue Yu, ran up to her angrily.
"What did Mr. Xue say to you just now?" Why did Mr. Xue talk to her for so long this time? He Xiaoyu was already feeling unbalanced, and it was even harder to calm down at this moment.
Qiao Yanrou remained indifferent to her questioning: "Just asked me a few questions."
"What did I ask you?" He Xiaoyu continued to ask in a bad tone.
Qiao Yanrou looked up at her and said, "Go ask him." She wouldn't be persuaded by force.
"You!" Knowing that she couldn't ask Mr. Xue, He Xiaoyu was angry and helpless. She knew that Qiao Yanrou was not easy to bully, and she would not end up well if she confronted her.
He Xiaoyu was so angry that she stomped her feet and ran to the shady place on the other side.
Until she walked out of the manor in the evening, Qiao Yanrou ignored her and Xue Yu never appeared again.
The next day, she and He Xiaoyu had just changed the water in the swimming pool when He Xiaoyu was called away by the housekeeper.
Qiao Yanrou didn't care, thinking that the housekeeper was just looking for He Xiaoyu for something, and she was the only one in the huge swimming pool.
After a while, the door of the villa was opened and Xue Yu waved for her to come over. Qiao Yanrou hesitated for a moment, but still walked over.
"Is there anything I can do for you, Mr. Xue?" She walked to a position about two meters away from him and stopped.
Xue Yu couldn't help but laugh when he saw how defensive she was. It was the first time that a member of the opposite sex was so wary of him.
He took off his bathrobe and handed it to her, saying casually, "Here."
Qiao Yanrou took the bathrobe he handed her and watched him jump into the swimming pool. She didn't just stand there, but walked to the beach chair next to her and sat down to wait for him to finish swimming.
Xue Yu swam several laps and walked out of the swimming pool. Qiao Yanrou stood up and handed him a bathrobe, but he did not reach out to take it.
"Open your nightgown." Xue Yu looked at her and said.
Qiao Yanrou calmly opened the pajamas in her hands to make it easier for him to put them on.
Xue Yu stared at her and slowly put on his nightgown.
He suddenly said to her: "It's a good character."
Qiao Yanrou was still very calm: "It's okay." There was no need to be angry with him. He was too strong and could probably kill her with just a few moves.
Xue Yu tightened the laces of his nightgown, his eyes never leaving her. "You're the first woman I've ever wanted to fall in love with." What kind of woman could make such a powerful man keep searching for her? He really wanted to get to know her better...
Qiao Yanrou's mind was filled with alarm bells, and she looked at him defensively: "I don't want to talk to you."
Xue Yu's handsome appearance showed no impatience: "No hurry, it's not too late to talk to me when you are willing."
She breathed a sigh of relief and didn't want to talk to him anymore. She planned to find a time in the next two days to see if she could sneak out of the base.
As Qiao Yanrou was thinking, he raised his hand to take off the hat. She reached out to take it back, but Xue Yu held the hat high up. He was 1.9 meters tall and she couldn't reach it at all.
"Give me back my hat." She said in an annoyed tone.
Xue Yu smiled ostentatiously and shook her hat in a joking manner: "Don't you feel stuffy wearing this hat every day? I can't even see your face clearly."
Seeing that she couldn't take it back, Qiao Yanrou had no choice but to let him shake his hat to provoke her.
"Are you angry?" Xue Yu approached her leisurely.
"It's not worth it," she said.
Xue Yu was stunned by her, then a smile appeared on his face: "I'm just kidding, if you agree to be my girlfriend, not only the hat, but also the base and I will be yours." He wanted to see what charm she had that could make a strong man like Fu Chuqing so interested in her.
Qiao Yanrou sat on the beach chair: "I don't care." She didn't want to say another word to him.
This was the first time Xue Yu was treated so coldly. He walked up to her and asked, "Why? Am I making you so unhappy?"
Qiao Yanrou glanced at him calmly: "Yes."
After she answered, the air was silent for several seconds.
Xue Yu squatted down, her figure reflected in his eyes. He said, "You make me more interested."
Qiao Yanrou: “…” Forget it, it’s not like she hasn’t encountered such a pervert before.
"From now on, you don't have to work in the swimming pool. Live with me in the villa." This would save her from running away, and then he would have nowhere to have fun.
Qiao Yanrou: “!” She looked up at the man who stood up in disbelief.
"Just now I was going back to where I used to live."
Xue Yu looked down at her and said, "If you can get out, you can live wherever you want."
Qiao Yanrou didn't understand why he locked her up in this manor, and couldn't guess what he wanted to do.
He put the hat on her gently and said, "Stay with me and cultivate your relationship."
Qiao Yanrou: "Mr. Xue, I don't have any feelings to cultivate with you."
Xue Yu's tone was nonchalant: "Relationships will develop over time."
Qiao Yanrou had never seen a scoundrel like him, so she simply didn't bother to pay attention to him. She couldn't believe that there was no place to sneak out in such a big manor.
Xue Yu didn't force her. He raised his hand to straighten the collar of her nightgown, then turned and left the swimming pool.
As soon as he left, Qiao Yanrou immediately got up and walked out of the manor, but was stopped at the gate. The psychic who was guarding the manor did not let her go out.
She tried to climb over the wall from various places in the manor, but the wall of the manor was covered with Xue Yu's fire power, and she had no way to bypass the fire power and climb out.
Qiao Yanrou walked around and returned to the swimming pool with nothing. She stayed by the pool until dark but didn't see He Xiaoyu again. She didn't know where the housekeeper had arranged her to go.
