"Take a shower."
"..." Ye Yanxi was instantly infuriated. She glared at him. "Can't you see I'm in here? The bathroom is being used!"
"I know." It was still just a few simple words.
Since he knew, why didn't he leave? Ye Yanxi kept complaining in her heart, but Xiao Yu showed no sign of leaving. Instead, he took steps towards her.
She still had body wash on her body that hadn't been rinsed off, otherwise she would have left long ago.
Seeing that tall figure approaching slowly, Ye Yanxi didn't care anymore. She quickly rinsed herself a few times, not bothering whether she was clean or not, and immediately rushed towards the bathroom door.
However, she was blocked by Xiao Yu's arm. Then he reached out and pulled her back, all the way under the showerhead.
"You haven't rinsed clean yet. Where are you going?"
As he said this, Xiao Yu rinsed her. But this time, the shower took much longer than usual.
A single man and a single woman, both naked. It was easy to imagine... An hour later, Ye Yanxi felt as if she had been run over by a car. She could hardly stand steadily. It was Xiao Yu who carried her out of the bathroom.
On the bed, Ye Yanxi immediately pulled the quilt over herself.
After several intimate contacts, Ye Yanxi no longer blushed when seeing Xiao Yu's naked body.
"Mr. President, it's very late... Aren't you leaving?"
After saying this, Ye Yanxi thought he would definitely go back. Who would have thought that the man would skillfully lift the quilt and lie down.
Ye Yanxi was a little afraid of Xiao Yu's wolf - like energy. She looked at him warily. "Um... Mr. President, I'm very tired now."
Xiao Yu didn't care what she said. He reached out and pulled her into his arms, covering the glaring light above his head with one hand.
"Go to sleep!"
It was concise, but Ye Yanxi opened her eyes wide. Sleep?
She couldn't help stealing a glance at him. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw one of his feet on the edge of the bed. "Mr. President, aren't you going back? Look, my bed is too small. Don't you think it's crowded?"
She was eager for Xiao Yu to get up and leave.
However, she got Xiao Yu's deep, dark eyes, staring at her silently. "If you want to do it one more time, I don't mind."
As soon as this sentence came out, Ye Yanxi immediately shut up, lay down obediently, and turned off the light.
She was used to sleeping alone. Suddenly there was a man beside her, and the tip of her nose was filled with his smell. So, Ye Yanxi tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
When she tossed and turned again like an egg being fried on fire, a hot hand wrapped around her waist and fixed her firmly.
"Don't move around!" In the darkness, Xiao Yu's deep voice was charming and a little hoarse.
"I'm not used to it. I can't fall asleep." Ye Yanxi tried to drive him away again. "Can't you go back?"
"I have a meeting early tomorrow morning."
Immediately, Ye Yanxi's sympathy overflowed. It was almost one o'clock now. If he went back and forth, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep for long. So she had to shut up again.
She glared at him angrily.
Suddenly, the scene of seeing Jin Yan in the office today came to her mind, which aroused her curiosity.
"Mr. President." She called him in a low voice.
"Speak!" At this moment, Xiao Yu's voice was a little impatient.
"Miss Jin. Were you engaged to her before, Mr. President?" She asked quickly.
"When we were kids, it was my father who made an engagement with his friend as a joke."
Hearing this, Ye Yanxi felt a little blocked. Lying beside Xiao Yu made her feel guilty.
"What's wrong?"
"Miss Jin has always been my idol. Now I'm sleeping in the same bed with her fiancé... Although it will end in the future, I still feel a little sorry for her."
After hearing her words, Xiao Yu's eyes darkened. He stared at the woman who was still struggling.
"It seems that you still have a lot of energy."
Huh? Why did the topic change so suddenly?
Before Ye Yanxi could react, she felt a heavy weight on her body.
It was destined to be another exhausting night.
The next day, just as dawn was breaking, someone came to deliver clothes for Xiao Yu.
Ye Yanxi was lazy and slept a little longer. When she got up in her slippers, she saw Xiao Yu neatly dressed in a suit, looking energetic, standing on the balcony.
Why was she so tired while he seemed to be fine?
When Xu Bei came to pick up Xiao Yu, Ye Yanxi, who was physically and mentally exhausted, was not polite at all. She got in the car and went to the company with them.
On the way, Ye Yanxi began to doze off.
When they were almost at the company and just passed a subway station, Ye Yanxi finally woke up. She immediately slapped the back of the driver's seat. "Stop, stop the car!"
Xu Bei was startled by her loud shout. Xiao Yu also squinted at her.
Soon Xu Bei stopped the car. Ye Yanxi quickly opened the door and jumped out. Before closing the door, she said to Xiao Yu, "Mr. President, I'll get off here. It's very close to the company. I can just walk there."
After saying that, she closed the door.
Her meaning was clear. She didn't want to enter the company with Xiao Yu. If people found out, it would cause a big stir and unnecessary trouble.
Xiao Yu didn't say anything. He just ordered Xu Bei to drive.
Ye Yanxi watched Xiao Yu's car leave before dragging her extremely tired body towards the company.
Suddenly, the phone in her bag rang. She took it out and saw it was Chu Beize. Her mood immediately turned bad.
Why was he still calling her? Wasn't he done yet?
Ye Yanxi answered the phone while crossing the intersection. She was a little impatient. "Hello. Why are you calling again?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Beize's angry roar came from the other end.
"I waited for you at the Jinling Hotel all night. Why didn't you come?"
Hearing Chu Beize's voice, Ye Yanxi was even more annoyed.
Such persistent entanglement. Where was the gentle man in her memory?
"Mr. Chu, I think I need to remind you that there's no relationship between us anymore."
"How could there be no relationship?" Chu Beize roared loudly. "You were the one who pestered me first eight years ago. Now you say there's no relationship and that's it?"
"Mr. Chu, I think you should remember that you're He Man's fiancé now. And there's the He Consortium behind her. Aren't you afraid that if you keep pestering me, I'll make you lose both your wealth and your reputation?"
After hearing this, Chu Beize was silent for a while. Suddenly he laughed softly. "Xiaoxi, I know what kind of person you are. You won't do that. I'm your big brother. Have you forgotten? How could you be willing to do that, right?"
Sixteen years ago, a single sentence suddenly stabbed Ye Yanxi's heart. During the eight years with Chu Beize, she had worked hard to make herself excellent so as to get the recognition of his family. And in order to protect him from harm, she had even practiced taekwondo.
No matter what Chu Beize had done to hurt her over the years, she would choose to forgive him because of his life - saving grace sixteen years ago.
Because she owed him that.
Now, it had become a bargaining chip for Chu Beize to threaten her. When had Chu Beize become so despicable and shameless?
"Chu Beize, I'll say it one more time. It's over between us long ago."
"Eight years. You say it's over and it's over?" Chu Beize paused for a moment and then said, "Don't even dream. Unless... you accompany me for one night, just one night. Then I'll stop pestering you."
