After Xian Xingze and Xian Shaonan left, Bai Xiaoruo began tidying up the house by herself.
He threw all the messy decorations and props into a plastic bag and put it outside. He found an A-frame ladder in the storage room, took the light bulb that Xuanxingze had taken off, and slowly climbed up to replace it.
After finishing everything, Bai Xiaoruo mopped the floor inside and out with a mop.
It's finally all cleaned up.
Bai Xiaoruo rubbed her shoulders and twisted her neck. It had been a long time since she had done so much work; it was really tough.
I've gotten so used to being waited on by Aunt Qin and Xia Xia at the new hospital these past few months that I'm starting to get lazy.
I miss them a lot. I'll go see them again when I have time.
After tidying up the house, Bai Xiaoruo felt a little sleepy. She yawned and slowly walked upstairs.
My dress is all dirty and my hair is a mess. I need to take a shower and then get some sleep.
I have to go to school early tomorrow morning, so I can't stay in bed any longer.
......
The car drove into the residential area and finally came to a smooth stop in front of a villa.
"Young Master, we've arrived." The driver turned around and glanced at Xuan Mingyu, who was slightly drunk and resting his head on his hand in the back seat.
The negotiations tonight, culminating in the signing of the contract, went quite late; it's already past 2 a.m.
"Okay. You can go back now. I can go in by myself." Xuan Mingyu slowly moved his body, opened the car door, and got out of the car.
I was only slightly drunk, but still quite lucid.
The driver was still a little worried, so he got out of the car with him. "Young master, are you sure you don't need me to help you inside?"
"No need, you can go back... By the way, tomorrow is Monday, isn't it?"
"Yes, young master."
"Come and wait at the gate at 8 a.m. tomorrow. You'll be responsible for taking the young mistress to school."
"Yes, young master."
After instructing the driver, Hsien Ming-yu took out the keys from his pocket and opened the door.
There are a lot of things to deal with these days, so I won't be Bai Xiaoruo's driver for the time being. Facing her all the time always makes me feel inexplicably irritable. When I think of Su Yuluo and how she is now in some corner of L City, Xuan Mingyu hopes that Mu Bie can help find her as soon as possible, but he doesn't know how to face each other's current situation if he really finds her. He also can't convince himself to get close to Bai Xiaoruo again.
***
Opening the door, the living room and kitchen were brightly lit.
This was a light that Bai Xiaoruo specially left on for Xuan Mingyu, in case he came back too late and the house was too dark to walk around in.
Hsien Ming-yu took off his suit jacket and hung it on the coat rack in the entryway. He changed into slippers and headed upstairs.
The lights were on in the master bedroom. As soon as the door opened, the blankets on the bed were slightly raised. Because she was afraid of the cold, only half her head was showing. Her back was to him, and her long, black hair was casually scattered on the pillow. Her petite body was curled up in the blankets, rising and falling gently...
Xuan Mingyu sat down next to Bai Xiaoruo. She was already asleep, fast asleep, with her mouth and nose tucked under the covers except for her eyes.
Actually, the master bedroom was heated and not very cold, but perhaps because Bai Xiaoruo was naturally insecure, she was filled with vigilance and fear even when she was asleep.
"Ding-dong!"
My phone vibrated in my pocket; there was a new message.
Hsien Ming-yu remembered that many people seemed to be looking for him tonight, and his phone rang several times. However, he was busy with negotiations and couldn't play with his phone, so he didn't have time to check it.
Xuan Mingyu took out his phone and looked at it. Apart from a few irrelevant spam ads, there was a picture that Xuan Xingze had just sent, and Lu Xinyao's only message.
He first opened the picture sent by Xian Xingze, which was a group photo of him, Xian Zhengsen, and Lin Suqing. The two elders were also made to laugh heartily by him, which was very heartwarming.
Sure enough, from childhood to adulthood, that troublemaker, despite always being a brat, was always the apple of his grandparents' eye.
It seems he has already been picked up by his uncle.
Well, at least I can have a few days of peace and quiet.
Xuan Mingyu opened Lu Xinyao's chat window.
Originally, Xuan Mingyu had no intention of adding her as a friend. Once, when they went out to eat, he was careless and she snatched his phone as soon as he unlocked it with the password. Although he got it back in less than a minute, he quickly entered her number and logged in. After that, Xuan Mingyu just left it hanging, too lazy to delete her. In the past, no matter what she sent, Xuan Mingyu would ignore it as if he hadn't seen it. But tonight, she sent a video, and the two main characters in it piqued Xuan Mingyu's interest.
Although she didn't say anything, it was obvious just by watching the video.
It's not surprising that Lu Xinyao was able to uncover the relationship between Xuan Mingyu and Bai Xiaoruo. However, is it really such a coincidence that she was able to capture Bai Xiaoruo and Ji Ziqian acting so intimately?
Was it because they were always so affectionate that no one needed to be lurking in the corner, or... was it Lu Xinyao's deliberate act?
Hsien Ming-yu wasn't immediately angry. Shouldn't he be happy that his little wife was so popular?
I vaguely remember that Bai Xiaoruo called Xuan Mingyu this evening, just before he was about to leave work, to say that she was going out to dinner with her friends.
So, it turns out, her so-called friend was none other than her Ziqian.
She even made a special trip to report to him whether she was just too bold or if she was truly innocent with that man.
Regardless of the circumstances, from the moment she married into the Xian family, she became a member of the Xian family. Whether their marriage was public or not, she should abide by the duties of a wife as the young mistress of the Xian family!
I put down my phone, looked down, and gazed at her sleeping face.
