Chapter 37 The Interrupted Love
I was quite proud and said, "What's so surprising about this? You haven't seen the angles of my splits yet."
"Show me later and see how much of your basic skills are left." He smiled like a fox.
I think his real intention is not to drink, and it is obvious that his head is full of colorful garbage.
I looked at him with blurred eyes, and his eyes darkened. He was about to lower his head to kiss me, but at this moment, the cell phone beside him rang. He glanced at the screen, frowned slightly, and seemed reluctant to answer it. After hesitating for a few seconds, he wiped his hands and picked up the phone.
When he answered the phone, his body was obviously a little further away from me. "It's so late, what's the matter?" I couldn't hear what the other party said, but I could vaguely hear a somewhat sharp female voice. My heart sank, and my intuition told me that it was the girl from the daytime.
“…Yes, this has nothing to do with you, just take care of yourself.
...I emphasize again, no one can interfere in my affairs, especially you.
Who told you this? Wu Wanqing?
...If she has any opinions, let her tell me and not interfere in adults' affairs.
...There are many things you don’t understand, so just focus on your studies!"
His tone was cold and hard, and I roughly knew what was going on.
I think Wu Wanqing told the girl that I stayed overnight tonight. She obviously called to question him, but his tone was firm and he didn't seem to worry about this being known to others.
I became more and more curious about the situation in his family, but as a woman who had only known him for a week, what right did I have to ask?
So I continued to pretend I didn't know, and he didn't intend to explain.
After hanging up the phone, he closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he looked as if nothing had happened.
"Have you soaked enough? I'll carry you to bed." His voice was sexy and his tone was ambiguous, and my heartbeat quickened uncontrollably again.
He wrapped me in a towel, gently placed me on the bed, and asked softly, "Do you know what you look like now?"
I was a little confused: "Like what?"
"Just like a newborn baby, pure and beautiful." He whispered in my ear.
I looked down at my appearance and was speechless: "You wrapped me up like this, I thought you wanted me to cosplay as a mummy."
He broke down in a second and laughed: "You really know how to ruin the atmosphere!"
He was about to untie the bath towel for me when someone knocked on the door. I struggled inward like a big maggot, trying to hide myself in the quilt.
"Who is it?" His voice was filled with suppressed anger.
A soft and sweet voice rang out, "Mr. Xiao, my mother asked me to bring you some fruit soup as a midnight snack. Please open the door and I'll bring it in."
"No, take it away." His voice was as cold and hard as ice, but the voice outside the door seemed not to notice it and continued to speak softly, "My mother said that it's cold and the fruit soup won't taste good if it's cold. If it's not convenient for you now, I'll wait here. The tray is a bit heavy, but I can hold on for a while."
I was amazed at Wu Wanqing's clever moves. First, she called Xiao Shiqiu's daughter to question him, and then, knowing full well what we would do, she came over to interrupt us under the pretext of delivering midnight snacks.
No matter how good Xiao Shiqiu's personality is, a man's temper will not be much better when he is disturbed at such a time.
"I'll say it again, take it away, I don't need it." I saw his face had darkened.
But Wu Wanqing was a little relentless, picking on the loopholes in his words, "Mr. Xiao, you don't need that. Miss Xia is a girl, she will definitely like fruit soup."
