After saying that, Ye Yanxi's small face flushed with anger. Her dark eyes burned with fury as she stared defiantly at Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu stood there calmly, looking at the woman in front of him with amusement. How could she get angry so suddenly? With her eyes wide open in anger, he even found her cute. Suddenly, he wanted to see just how worried she was about him.
Seeing that Xiao Yu remained silent, Ye Yanxi frowned and looked into his eyes. For just a moment, she felt something in her heart sinking. So she quickly averted her gaze, afraid that Xiao Yu would see through her thoughts.
After a long while, Ye Yanxi coughed slightly to cover her uneasiness. "If you don't want to talk about it, I won't ask. It's getting late. Let's go back."
After saying that, Ye Yanxi quickly opened the car door and got in.
Sitting nervously in the car, she could still feel Xiao Yu's gaze on her. She didn't dare to look at his expression. Anyway, Xiao Yu got in the car soon after and drove back to Qingyuwan. They didn't say a word all the way.
When they got downstairs, Ye Yanxi felt more and more stifled. She didn't talk to Xiao Yu on the way. She picked up her things and got on the elevator. After getting home, she first unpacked the food and fed the two little guys.
Then, she took out some fruits, chopped them into pieces and put them in the food box. As soon as there was food, the two little things immediately perked up and scrambled to enjoy the delicious food. Looking at the lively appearance of the two little guys, Ye Yanxi's originally depressed mood improved a little.
In the living room, Xiao Yu was sitting on the sofa. Ye Yanxi didn't want to go to the living room, so she stayed on the balcony, teasing Xiao Hei and Xiao Hui.
"Xiao Hui, you're so domineering. There's still a lot. Don't grab it." Watching the two of them start to fight after they were full, Ye Yanxi squinted and smiled. Her eyes became much softer.
However, even though she didn't want to see Xiao Yu, he came to find her.
Just as she was watching happily, Ye Yanxi felt as if there were two burning gazes on her back. The feeling was so strong that it was hard for her to pretend not to notice.
She turned around and saw Xiao Yu leaning against the door frame. His jet - black eyes stared at her without blinking.
Ye Yanxi was unhappy. She didn't like Xiao Yu's sharp and penetrating gaze at all. Moreover, because of his height advantage, he always looked down at her in a haughty manner. Ye Yanxi pouted and was about to go back to the living room.
Before she took a few steps, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Xiao Yu take his hand out of his suit pocket. Just as she was about to move forward, Xiao Yu stretched out his arm and blocked her way.
Looking down at her slightly, he asked, "Are you angry?"
"No." Ye Yanxi glared at him angrily and immediately denied it fiercely.
"You're not angry, but why is your face wrinkled like an old woman's?"
Damn it! He actually mocked her for looking like an old woman. Ye Yanxi raised her head and retorted without hesitation, "I'm only in my early twenties. Don't compare me to you!"
"We're both in our twenties. We're both on the verge of turning thirty!"
Ye Yanxi gave him a disgusted look and said meaningfully, "You're twenty - nine. Counting the year you weren't born yet, you've been in this world for thirty years. At thirty, you still insist on pretending to be a young man in his twenties."
Finally, Xiao Yu's face changed.
"Are you complaining that I drove away Lin Mo, the guy who was chasing you?"
Ye Yanxi was stunned. She was caught off guard by the mention of Lin Mo. What did this mean? Besides, she didn't plan to be with Lin Mo. That kid was a bit too familiar.
However, her mood was not good at the moment. Since Xiao Yu brought it up, she was too lazy to refute. "Yes, I do blame you for driving Lin Mo away. If it weren't for you, maybe I'd be with him now!"
Xiao Yu's eyes darkened. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Then you'll never have that chance in this lifetime."
Ye Yanxi ignored him and pushed his arm. Xiao Yu didn't move an inch. "Get out of the way. I need to pass."
"Where are you going?" Xiao Yu narrowed his dark eyes.
Where else could she go? What a stupid question.
But being asked like this by Xiao Yu made her angry. She continued to argue with him, "Didn't you just say that I blame you for driving Lin Mo away? I'm going to look for him now. Maybe he's still in the supermarket."
After saying that, Ye Yanxi bent down and slipped under his arm.
Xiao Yu's face changed. He immediately grabbed Ye Yanxi's arm to stop her from rushing towards the door. At the same time, he comforted her, "Don't be naughty."
"Naughty? Who's being naughty? I'm going to look for him. Let go of me!" Ye Yanxi shouted loudly and beat his arm.
Xiao Yu ignored her struggle. He stared at her angry face for a while. Suddenly, his eyes darkened. He picked her up and threw her over his shoulder, then walked towards the second floor.
"What are you doing? Put me down. Put me down!" Suddenly, her feet were off the ground. Her head spun. After she came to her senses, she struggled even more fiercely. Her hands kept beating his back.
Xiao Yu didn't react to her struggle at all.
Seeing that Xiao Yu ignored her, Ye Yanxi got even angrier. She took a bite of his back.
Unfortunately, Xiao Yu's muscles were too firm and hard. After taking a bite, her teeth ached, but it didn't even hurt Xiao Yu.
"Xiao! I told you to put me down. Did you hear me?" Ye Yanxi said dejectedly with a grunt.
However, Xiao Yu still remained unmoved, pretending to be deaf. He carried Ye Yanxi straight into the bedroom.
As soon as they got to the bedroom, Xiao Yu kicked the door shut with his foot. He walked to the bed and threw Ye Yanxi onto it. Ye Yanxi finally got her freedom. She turned over and tried to get up, but the next second, Xiao Yu's tall figure pressed down on her. He held her restless hands down, leaving her no chance to escape.
"Let go of me. I'm going to look for Lin Mo!" Ye Yanxi was extremely angry at the moment and shouted randomly.
She was about to say something else, but Xiao Yu didn't give her a chance. He lowered his head and kissed her lips. All that came out of her mouth were mumbled words. She tried to push him away, but she didn't have any strength in her hands. She felt like a fish on a chopping board, at his mercy.
Xiao Yu was much stronger than her and was better at fighting. It was a luxury for Ye Yanxi to find a chance to escape. Finally, she felt like she was about to run out of breath. She lay on the bed, gasping for air, with her chest heaving violently. She had no strength left to resist.
After she caught her breath, Xiao Yu's kiss came down on her like a violent storm. His actions were rough and showed no tenderness at all. It felt like being gnawed at by a wild beast. Her lips started to hurt badly.
Just when she was about to suffocate again, Xiao Yu finally let her go.
He propped his arms on either side of Ye Yanxi, looking down at her angrily. His voice was hoarse and magnetic as he asked, "Are you still going to look for that pretty boy? Answer me!"
Ye Yanxi stared back at him. Her face was flushed. "When did I say I was going? It's all your fault."
Hearing this, most of Xiao Yu's anger subsided.
"So, you don't like that Lin Mo?"
"I never said I liked him." Ye Yanxi murmured in a low voice.
"Aren't you the one who recognized him right away in the supermarket?"
Ye Yanxi rolled her eyes and immediately retorted, "Didn't you do the same when you saw those two beautiful girls in the parking lot?"
Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows.
"Are you jealous?"
"What's so strange about that? Why should I be jealous? Who you're with has nothing to do with me. Narcissist!" After saying that, she averted her eyes and didn't look at him.
Xiao Yu rolled over and lay beside her. He put his arm around her waist. "I told them I have a girlfriend."
This made Ye Yanxi feel a bit better. She stiffened immediately when she felt Xiao Yu's little move beside her. She only felt Xiao Yu's breath lingering on her neck, making her feel weak all over. She uncomfortably moved a bit to the side, but the hand around her waist pulled her closer.
Just when her body was stiff and she didn't know what to do, Xiao Yu's hand reached for her collar and pulled it down a bit.
She let out a scream and quickly pulled her clothes back up. "What are you doing?"
A scar was exposed to Xiao Yu's sight. The new flesh on the scar was very different from the surrounding skin color. Xiao Yu's fingers gently stroked the wound bit by bit.
She got this wound when she was saving Jin Yan in the hotel. She fought with several bodyguards at that time. She fell on the stairs and was scratched by the railing. Although the wound had healed, it still left an ugly scar.
When his slightly cool and slightly calloused fingers gently brushed over it, she couldn't help but recall the scene when she got hurt. Her body instinctively shivered.
"Does it hurt?" Xiao Yu's voice was full of pity and tenderness. He looked into her eyes, and his fingers moved very carefully.
For no reason, Ye Yanxi felt her heart soften. She found it a bit hard to resist Xiao Yu with such a doting look in his eyes. Her cheeks that were being looked at by him suddenly burned.
"It doesn't hurt anymore." Ye Yanxi replied softly.
"I'm asking about when you got hurt."
Ye Yanxi answered truthfully, "It hurt a lot at that time. Fortunately, I met Aunt He."
She felt the hand around her waist tighten. Xiao Yu's voice was a bit apologetic. "I'm sorry. I didn't notice you at that time."
It was rare to see Xiao Yu with an apologetic expression. Ye Yanxi's heart softened. She smiled indifferently. "It's all right, isn't it? Besides, Miss Jin was more seriously injured than me at that time. I should have saved her. And Miss Jin is still lying in the hospital."
Xiao Yu was silent. He remembered that Ye Yanxi was so seriously injured in the hotel that she couldn't even stand up. If it weren't for Mrs. He, he didn't know what would have happened.
Just thinking about that dangerous scene made him tremble with fear, but she said it so indifferently.
After that night, she also didn't hesitate to move out of the apartment.
Now that he thought about it, maybe it was because she saw that he only saved Jin Yan at that time, so she was disappointed and chose to leave heartlessly.
"If I could have noticed you earlier at that time, I would have saved you first!" Xiao Yu buried his face in her neck and said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Ye Yanxi was very touched. She smiled and said, "She was much more seriously injured than me at that time. Even if you wanted to save me first, I would have asked you to help her first."
It seemed that all the previous misunderstandings were cleared up. After they had a frank talk, they felt closer to each other.
The hand that was just quietly around her waist started to get restless. It slowly lifted the bottom of her clothes and reached inside.
Ye Yanxi was stunned for a moment. She immediately understood what he wanted to do. Her breathing became a bit unsteady from the teasing. She pulled his hand out of her clothes.
"What are you doing?"
Xiao Yu's answer was to hug her tightly. However, she soon noticed his physical reaction. She felt her ears burning.
After struggling for a long time, Ye Yanxi stammered, "Not today."
"Your wound is healed, isn't it?"
Ye Yanxi suddenly felt very happy. Finally, she had a chance to get back at him. She said with a big smile, "Although the wound is healed, I'm on my period."
"........"
The punctual arrival of her period saved her. Looking at Xiao Yu's livid face, she felt really happy.
The next morning when she got up, Ye Yanxi still looked pale. Seeing her haggard appearance, Xiao Yu wanted her to stay at home and rest, but Ye Yanxi firmly refused. In the end, she still went to the company with Xiao Yu.
As usual, when they got to the subway station near the company, Ye Yanxi asked Xiao Yu to stop the car. When she opened the door, Xiao Yu grabbed her arm. "What are you doing? We're not there yet!"
Ye Yanxi looked around nervously. When she didn't see any of her colleagues from the company, she turned back and explained to Xiao Yu, "We'd better not go to the company together. People will misunderstand."
"Misunderstand? Are you afraid that it will have an impact on me if others know?" Xiao Yu said coldly, "Don't worry about those things!"
Ye Yanxi said angrily, "I'm afraid it will have an impact on me. I'm just a small employee. I don't want to be drowned in those rumors."
"Is it so embarrassing for you to have me as your boyfriend?" Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Are you forcing me to tell the truth?"
"......"
"I'm leaving." Taking advantage of his momentary distraction, Ye Yanxi quickly shook off his hand, jumped out of the car, ran to the subway station, and then pretended to walk towards the company.
"Drive!" Xiao Yu's face was gloomy. His thin lips spat out two cold words.
Xu Bei felt as if he was in the middle of winter again. He didn't even dare to breathe loudly as he started the car.
It seemed that someone in the company was going to be unlucky today.
Ye Yanxi walked slowly towards the company. Naturally, she didn't know Xiao Yu's mood. She even felt that her mood was quite good.
Just when she reached the crossroads, not far from the company, she heard a man shouting rather loudly and anxiously, "Parli italiano?"
As he spoke, he stopped the people who were in a hurry. Many people stopped and listened for a long time, looking completely confused. Then they waved impatiently at him and left him behind.
The man's face clearly changed from a glimmer of hope to disappointment. Finally, he looked around dejectedly, but still kept asking passers - by.
Ye Yanxi wasn't very far away, so she walked over.
The man was probably disappointed many times. When he saw Ye Yanxi, he just numbly repeated the same sentence, "Parli italiano?"
"Posso!"
As soon as Ye Yanxi finished speaking, the man immediately looked at her excitedly. There was an undeniable joy in his eyes.
The man immediately asked another question, "Can you really? " He also spoke in Italian.
Ye Yanxi smiled and said, "May I ask if you need any help?"
The man immediately took out a note from his pocket and handed it to Ye Yanxi. As he did so, he said, "I just came from abroad. When I was taking a taxi, I gave the address to the driver. Then the driver brought me here, but I can't find that place."
Just taking a quick glance, Ye Yanxi immediately said, "You're in the wrong place. This is the east street corner. The place you're going to is on the other side."
"Oh my god! I finally asked the right person." The man's face lit up. His light - blue eyes were very beautiful, and his golden hair was typical of a Westerner. He politely bowed and asked, "May I ask, beautiful lady, how can I get to this place?"
"I'll help you hail a taxi and tell the driver where you're going."
"Okay, thank you. By the way..." The man looked Ye Yanxi up and down a few times and asked, "What's your name? Your Italian is really good. Are you studying this?"
The man smiled at her. He seemed very friendly. Ye Yanxi also said generously, "I'm a junior student in the Foreign Languages Department of S University. My surname is Ye."
"My name is Link. I'm here in China for the first time."
"Hello. Welcome to China."
After that, Ye Yanxi led Link towards the roadside, planning to hail a taxi.
But before they took a few steps, a man suddenly rushed out from behind an old woman who was walking in front. He snatched the old woman's bag and ran away.
This sudden change caught many passers - by off guard. Ye Yanxi was also stunned for a moment. After she came to her senses, she immediately rushed forward, caught up with the man. When the man tried to resist, she kicked him to the ground, stepped on his hand, and picked up the bag that had fallen beside him.
But the man was not an easy target. While Ye Yanxi was picking up the bag, he flipped over and got up. He spat on the ground and then ran away without a trace.
Ye Yanxi looked at the man's fleeing back, pouted, and returned the bag to the old woman. The old woman took the bag with trembling hands excitedly and thanked Ye Yanxi repeatedly.
When Link walked over, he stared at Ye Yanxi with his eyes wide open.
Ye Yanxi smiled awkwardly. Her actions were completely a conditioned reflex. "Sorry if I scared you just now."
"No!"
While they were talking, an empty taxi pulled up. After Link thanked Ye Yanxi again, he got in the taxi and left.
Looking at Ye Yanxi's figure getting farther and farther away in the rear - view mirror, Link hooked his lips into a smile. He took out his phone and dialed a number. "I've found the most suitable person, Miss Ye, a junior
