Chapter 188 Don’t Go Too Far
Qiao Xi was like a small boat drifting on the sea, a tattered little boat at that.
She breathed rapidly and said, "Of course it's a wolf."
She chose the wolf.
Wolves are known for their keen insight and ambition, their ruthlessness, their foresight, and, most importantly, their loyalty to their partners.
Loyal and aloof.
The man was satisfied with the coaxing and started to torment her in new ways.
It was the first time for Qiao Xi to see the ceiling of the study. The dim light flickered before her eyes. The chair had pulleys, which was really thrilling, but she also particularly enjoyed the excitement.
Perhaps no matter how shy and steady a person is, he or she has an innate spirit of adventure in his or her bones.
Midnight.
The noise in the study finally ended.
Qiao Xi, wearing his white shirt, leaned softly in the chair, her cheeks flushed as she said, "Mr. Huo, it's torn..."
They played too hard and even Taima's music was broken.
Her body could sense it.
"Feel sorry."
His suit pants hung loosely at his waist, and he was shirtless. His hair was a little damp, and he looked at her with dark eyelashes.
"I...I'll take some medicine." Qiao Xi said.
"Don't eat it. Just let it go this time. If there is a baby, just give birth to it." He turned around to ask Zhou Yu how such a poor quality product came into his hands.
Qiao Xi thought about it and nodded.
It's just one time, it's not that easy to win.
Huo Xingzhou bent down and picked her up, "Let's take a bath together."
"study……"
"I'll clean it up and won't let Aunt Qian find out." He said this, but he knew it was unnecessary.
Aunt Qian's eyes are like searchlights and microscopes, so she is suitable to be a detective.
"That's good."
Qiao Xi was shy, and she was really afraid that Aunt Qian would think they were too indulgent. Even the study room... Before it all started, Qiao Xi had never thought it would develop into this.
It's out of control.
It's as if I've lost all my rationality.
"Tomorrow is Tianyuan Group's mid-year celebration banquet, which will be held at Jinling Hotel at 8 o'clock in the evening. I'll ask Lao Chen to pick you up then?" This time the main purpose is to celebrate winning the order from the Zhong family.
Those present included middle and senior management of Tianyuan Group and some partners.
There are relatively few people.
Qiao Xi nestled in his arms, yawned, and said, "I want to accompany grandma. Tomorrow is the anniversary of Dad's death, and grandma will be very sad alone. If it's too late, I'll sleep in the clinic."
She wanted to witness his success.
But grandma is important.
"Okay. If it ends early, I'll pick you up."
Huo Xingzhou pushed open the door sideways and walked into the bathroom, gently placing Qiao Xi in the bathtub.
Qiao Xi shyly clasped her hands together to cover her private parts.
The bathroom light was too bright.
She always felt that she had nowhere to hide.
Huo Xingzhou adjusted the water temperature to a suitable temperature for her and used the shower head to rinse her body. Qiao Xi held the back of his hand and said, "Mr. Huo, the wound on your hand cannot be touched by water. I will do it myself."
"Just a minor injury."
He dodged her movements and said, "Can't you see that I'm trying to take advantage?"
His fingers slowly slid across her side, causing her to tremble.
Qiao Xi keenly sensed his thoughts and quickly retreated, saying, "Mr. Huo, you can't come again. I don't want to become empty-headed and weak-footed."
"Okay." He responded and restrainedly scrubbed her body with a bath ball.
Qiao Xi's body gradually relaxed.
The hot water took away the tiredness in her body and she felt drowsy.
She didn't even realize when the man took her to bed.
She turned over and hugged the man in her arms, as if she was feeling the warmth she had felt in the cave on the snowy mountain that year, and the tip of her nose was filled with that distant and unfamiliar cold fragrance.
"Ayi..."
She muttered.
Huo Xingzhou glanced at her darkly, reached out and pinched her nose, warning her: "You'd better call me Auntie, not that Ah Yi..."
Qiao Xi was sleeping soundly, breathing with her mouth open.
Huo Xingzhou let go of his hand.
He was just a childhood playmate, nothing more than a young man who died young, and occupied a place of death in her heart.
…
the next day.
Qiao Xi set the alarm and got up, her waist and limbs were sore.
She gradually got used to this feeling, and getting up to do a set of Five Animal Exercises could basically eliminate the negative pain. When she got up, she just heard the sound of a car starting outside.
I guess Mr. Huo will be very busy today.
The first mid-year meeting of Tianyuan Group after it officially settled in Haicheng.
After a quick wash, she slipped into the study to check the situation.
All the absurdity and mess of last night have been cleaned up.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
"Young Madam, it's time for breakfast."
Aunt Qian shouted downstairs.
"Coming." Qiao Xi walked down the stairs quickly.
Aunt Qian laid out the breakfast, including a bowl of red bean and osmanthus dumpling soup. "Madam, eat it while it's hot. I need to find some more ingredients to nourish you and the young master."
Qiao Xi held the celadon bowl, her ears burning.
Aunt Qian looked at her for a long time, then spoke again: "Young Madam, let me do the housework next time. The young master has been living a life of luxury since he was a child, and he is successful in business, but he is a mess at housework.
This morning I noticed the mop was placed in the wrong direction. The rag wasn't shaken out after being wrung out. The garbage bag..."
There are flaws everywhere!
The floor in the study is of different depths.
The mop must be too wet because I didn’t open the window for ventilation last night.
The garbage bag in the study is not on.
The most important thing is that the Taitai Le in the study has been unpacked!
"Aunt Qian, I..." Qiao Xi felt so ashamed that she wanted to disappear right there.
Aunt Qian smiled frankly and said, "Young man, I understand. When Aunt Qian was young, she was much wilder than you... Young Madam, don't be shy. I, Aunt Qian, can still pass on my experience to you."
"What experience?"
“The experience of having a child.”
She spoke freely, pouring out all her decades of extensive experience. Some of it was even more bizarre than the information on the USB drive Shu Xue had given her, leaving Qiao Xi shocked and embarrassed.
It was an eye-opener for her.
"Young Madam, remember this. Every night after 10 o'clock, I will definitely fall asleep. I will not hear any movement in the house. You treat me as invisible."
She is so sweet.
But Qiao Xi's face was so hot that she could fry an egg on it.
Aunt Qian was clearly lying! Last time, she and Mr. Huo played around in the swimming pool until midnight, and Aunt Qian woke up early and said she heard a cat calling, and she didn't sleep well all night!
"I'm going to work!"
Qiao Xi hurriedly finished a few bites, grabbed her bag and ran out.
Aunt Qian hadn't finished her words yet, and she still felt a little reluctant.
Qiao Xi sat in the car, breathing unsteadily, and said, "Old Chen, drive. You don't have to pick me up tonight. Mr. Huo said he would drive over."
She and Mr. Huo were not going out together today, so Lao Chen drove a Porsche out of the garage.
Usually the couple would travel along the way and use that Rolls-Royce.
Sometimes their schedules don’t match, and Qiao Xi doesn’t want to trouble Lao Chen and Mr. Huo, so she takes a taxi home.
"Okay, young lady."
Old Chen stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the clinic.
