There's no need to pay too much attention to your image; as long as your clothes are comfortable, that's all that matters.
Therefore, she simply stuffed the bag into her suitcase and brought it with her, never opening it to look at it.
She opened the wardrobe and took out the bag that she had casually placed at the bottom of the wardrobe while packing her luggage.
There were three skirts inside the clothes, each with a different style.
After taking out the three dresses, there was a small black bag underneath. It was so small that you wouldn't notice it unless you took the dresses out.
Song Mai pulled out the bag and casually took out the contents. She couldn't help but blush after just one glance.
It was a set of bright red lace-up lingerie. It wasn't particularly exaggerated or revealing, but it was still very sexy. It could perfectly outline the curves of a woman's figure without being vulgar.
Lin Ran had indeed put a lot of effort into choosing it, but unfortunately, she couldn't use it.
Song Mai, carrying the set of sexy lingerie, was both amused and exasperated.
I don't know what this girl is thinking all day. Instead of thinking about finding a partner, she's scheming for someone who's already married.
Just as she was lost in thought, the bathroom door suddenly clicked, and then the man opened the bathroom door and came out.
Upon hearing the sound, Song Mai instantly snapped back to reality, so tense that she almost forgot to breathe.
She quickly stuffed the lingerie back into the bag, her face turning pale with fright.
The man hadn't paid any attention to her at first, assuming she was just tidying up her clothes, but her movements were rather furtive, which aroused his suspicion.
"What are you doing?"
He didn't see what she was holding, but he did see a red blob of something stuffed into her bag.
Song Mai could practically dig a villa out of her toes; she wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground so no one could see her.
She didn't know if Chu Xing had seen it or not, but since he asked, she could only bite the bullet and answer.
"No, I didn't do anything... just tidying up clothes."
She glanced around nervously, her eyes betraying her panic.
[I must give that little brat a good beating when I get back.]
Chu Xing listened to her rambling thoughts but couldn't understand what she meant.
"You're acting strangely."
Clutching the black bag, Song Mai could only stammer, "It's... underwear... so..."
As expected, the man didn't ask any more questions after hearing this, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She quickly stuffed the bag back into her suitcase, preventing it from ever appearing again.
She lay back down on the bed, her phone screen displaying one message after another from Lin Ran.
"How about it?"
Do you like it?
"I've been looking at this for a long time, I guarantee your husband's eyes will light up when you wear it!"
Song Mai was speechless and replied with a jaw-dropping emoji.
As soon as she sent the message, Lin Ran replied with several messages instantly.
"Did you wear it? Is your husband smitten with you?"
"On such a beautiful night, how come you still have time to reply to my messages? Why don't you go and spend the night together?"
"You can resist your husband's looks? You must have kicked your drug habit!"
...
Song Mai glanced at Chu Xing sitting on the sofa. The man had just finished showering, and his hair was still dripping wet.
Water droplets slid down his neck, rolled down to his collarbone, and formed a small puddle there.
He wore the bathrobe casually, and with his movements, it opened slightly at the chest, revealing the man's handsome chest, where one could see that the muscles were firm and powerful.
She exudes sexual tension, yet her face appears serious and ascetic. The combination of these two contrasting qualities doesn't feel out of place; instead, it creates a powerful tug-of-war that draws you in.
Even if it were a cup of poison, I would be willing to drink it without hesitation and sink into its depths.
It seems quite tempting.
Song Mai stared wide-eyed.
Perhaps it was because her gaze was too intense that the man noticed something, because he suddenly turned his head and his eyes met hers.
Song Mai's pupils suddenly dilated, and her heart contracted at that moment.
Is it pretty?
The man suddenly spoke, and Song Mai looked puzzled.
"What?"
The man immediately gave him a look as if he were looking at an idiot.
Song Mai then realized that she had been caught peeping, and her face instantly turned red to the roots of her ears.
"I, I'm not..."
She wanted to explain that she hadn't been spying on him on purpose.
But peeping is peeping; there's no distinction between unintentional and intentional.
She realized her explanation was somewhat ridiculous halfway through, and swallowed the rest of her sentence.
But I already had the answer in my heart.
It's beautiful, incredibly beautiful...
The man chuckled and shook his head, saying nothing more, and instead picked up his laptop to work.
After Song Mai was caught, she dared not look at him again. But that's how people are; the more they dare not look, the more a voice in their hearts urges them to look again, and keeps telling them that it's okay to look once.
She secretly glanced at him a few more times. The man at work had a serious handsomeness that drew her gaze to him uncontrollably several times.
After a while, she sent Lin Ran a message that seemed to reflect her feelings: "He does seem quite handsome."
Lin Ran was almost speechless with shock.
"Seriously, lady? You're only realizing how handsome your husband is now?"
"What kind of taste do you have? You've married such a handsome guy right in front of you, and only now do you realize how good he is?"
"It's so enviable, she's completely unaware of her husband's good looks and wasting his talent."
Lin Ran's series of messages made Song Mai chuckle.
She had noticed long ago that he was quite handsome, but only now did she truly feel his attraction to women, a feeling that no other handsome man could provide.
Song Mai tossed and turned the blankets, forcing herself to distract herself. She felt she couldn't think about him anymore, or something uncontrollable might happen.
She simply dug out the photos she had taken that day and began editing them one by one.
She only put down her phone and prepared to sleep when drowsiness overcame her.
While Chu Xing was working, he glanced at the woman on the bed and saw that she seemed to have fallen asleep.
He turned off the lights, leaving only a small reading lamp, which immediately darkened the room.
After a while, when he could hear her steady breathing, the man put down his computer and quickly went into the bathroom.
He quickly dialed a number and lowered his voice to say:
"How are the talks with the drone company going?"
"They are still sticking to the price they offered before and are unwilling to budge."
The man snorted coldly: "They've been operating at a loss for a long time. Although they have good technology, they lack foresight. If they keep following the old path, they'll go bankrupt sooner or later. The fact that I'm willing to spend a lot of money to acquire them at this time is already giving them some face."
