Chapter 421: Guessed Right
Jiang Yuan disagreed with this. The last time she went back to the old house, she had offended his parents badly. The feud had already been formed, and it would be extremely difficult to resolve it.
Yin Dong didn't want her to think too much, so he changed the subject. "It's rare for us to come to Haicheng together, so how about taking you out for a walk? Rest for a night and go back early tomorrow morning?"
It is indeed rare to have such free time, but the current situation is too tense. Their every move is probably being watched by the Xue family. Even if they just go out for a walk, they have to mobilize a large number of people. Those bodyguards have been following her for most of the day, so it is better to trouble others less.
"No, I'm too tired and don't want to move."
Jiang Yuan leaned on the pillow, slid down, and lay back down.
Yin Dong could no longer hide his fondness for her, and called her, "Lazy Bones."
Jiang Yuan ignored him and closed her eyes pretending to sleep, but she felt the edge of the bed suddenly sink, and his breath suddenly covered her.
He didn't press her at all, his arms supported her sides, and he kissed her lightly, intermittently. Jiang Yuan was tickled by him, and shrank her neck to avoid him. She wanted to scold him, but her voice was filled with rare coquettishness, "Stop touching me!"
He kept pursuing her sensitive parts, his eyes showing a growing interest. Jiang Yuan was too hard to bear, so she could only go soft with him. "I'm so tired, can you let me sleep for a while?"
She begged him for mercy with her eyes.
There was anger in his eyes, but his voice was calm. "You sleep, I'll be gentle, and think of it as helping you hypnotize."
Jiang Yuan was so sad that she wanted to cry but had no tears. She regretted it very much and thought that one should not think too much about others.
She opened her eyes and said, "I don't want to sleep anymore. Let's go out for a walk together. How about going to Disneyland?"
"It's too late."
He put his big hands on her face, covered her eyelids, and said in a hoarse voice, "Go to sleep. I promise it will be quiet."
"Would you like me to draw the curtains for you?"
Jiang Yuan closed his eyes and exhaled slowly, "No need."
She lives in a penthouse suite on the 38th floor, so it doesn't matter whether she draws the curtains or not.
Perhaps she was really too tired. Jiang Yuan didn't expect that she actually fell asleep. She could not remember the scene before she fell asleep. She only vaguely remembered that her body was damp and hot, and he seemed to be bending over to help her wipe her body.
She didn't know how long she slept. It was dark outside and night had just fallen.
His voice could be heard from the balcony. He was dressed neatly and was talking on the phone, holding a cigarette in his other hand with a serious expression.
At a certain moment, he turned his head, and their eyes met through the transparent window. The temperature in his eyes immediately rose several degrees.
He quickly hung up the phone, stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray, and walked in.
Jiang Yuan had a bad feeling. She sat up from the bed, took her clothes and put them on while staring at him and asking, "What's wrong? What did Assistant Zhou find out?"
He glanced at her, as if he was about to speak, but after two seconds of silence, he chose to tell her, "Xue Qi is indeed not Xue Guangkun's biological daughter. She was adopted by Xue Guangkun's wife Zhang Ning from an orphanage abroad."
Jiang Yuan felt relieved, but then she said, "As far as I know, Xue Guangkun and his wife don't have any other children. Even if they adopted her, after raising her to this age, their feelings for her would be no different from their own daughter. They wouldn't be willing to risk Xue Qi's life, right?"
He walked to the bed and sat down, saying calmly, "Zhang Ning doesn't have any other children, but Xue Guangkun has three illegitimate children outside. Xue Qi wasn't welcomed at home, so he used her as a stepping stone. This is considered a way to repay his kindness in raising her."
Seeing that he looked very unhappy, Jiang Yuan guessed that he might have some sympathy for Xue Qi.
