750 What’s the Matter Again?
Shen Hanxing’s words sounded like she was demanding an explanation from Ji Yan. However, the smile on her face was more of a tease than a challenge. Ji Yan’s Adam’s apple bobbed slightly. He put his hand on Shen Hanxing’s waist and said in a hoarse voice, “Then how will Madam punish me?” His eyes were full of love, as if he was completely defenseless and was at Shen Hanxing’s mercy.
Shen Hanxing could not help but chuckled. She then tiptoed and kissed Ji Yan on the lips. “How’s this punishment?”
“No, it’s not enough.” Ji Yan’s eyes darkened instantly. He suddenly tightened his grip and pulled her into his arms. His eyes were extremely aggressive as he said softly, “Madam, you’re encouraging me to be naughty.”
“Mr. Ji, you want to do naughty things to me? This is really a headache.” Although Shen Hanxing said that, she did not look pissed at all. Instead, she smiled charmingly. Her fingertips brushed against Ji Yan’s cheek as she whispered into his ear, “Then, I’ll have to think about how to make Mr. Ji remember this so deeply that he won’t do it again.”
Despite her words, in the alluring atmosphere, how could Shen Hanxing bear to punish Ji Yan? Especially when he looked at her with such indulgence and love, allowing her fingers to land on his vulnerable Adam’s apple, and looking completely defenseless against her, it was impossible for her to make things difficult for him. This man always put himself in front of her so openly that she couldn’t even bear to tease him. It made her feel helpless and a little frustrated.
Shen Hanxing opened her red lips slightly and bit Ji Yan’s Adam’s apple. She said unhappily, “Mr. Ji, you’re cheating.” He must have known that she had no resistance to his charms. Wasn’t this cheating?
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, Madam,” Ji Yan’s eyes were smiling as he gently rubbed the top of Shen Hanxing’s head and said gently,” Didn’t I allow Madam to punish me?” The place where he was bitten didn’t hurt; instead it felt like a tickle.
He was still playing dumb? Shen Hanxing glared at Ji Yan. She could smell the fragrance of the wine on him. She thought about how he had been entertaining the guests until now and got pissed. She frowned and said, “Mr. Ji, have you had eaten anything? ” She knew that he had drunk a lot. Those banquets and dinner parties were mostly about drinking and socializing, and one didn’t get a chance to eat.
“Don’t worry, Madam. I ate something before I drank.” Ji Yan’s heart was filled with warmth when he saw the worry in Shen Hanxing’s eyes.
“Then why don’t you go and get some sleep?” Shen Hanxing was relieved. She pushed Ji Yan away and feigned a fierce tone. “I’ll settle the score with you another day. Now, go take a shower and go to bed.” Her tone was fierce when she gave this loving instruction.
Ji Yan could not help but laugh. He staggered two steps forward with her in his arms, and his voice was gentle. “Yes, Ma’am. I’ll go now.” He planted a gentle kiss on Shen Hanxing’s forehead and said, “Good night, Madam.”
“Good night, Mr. Ji.” Shen Hanxing chuckled.
After a good night’s sleep, she woke up the next day to hear Ji Qian’s shouts from downstairs. “Qiao Xi, what are you doing?”
Shen Hanxing looked over and saw that Qiao Xi was surrounded by Ji Qian and Ji Ning with her head lowered and a small box in her hand. Shen Hanxing asked, “What’s this for?”
“Sister-in-law, Qiao Xi packed up her things early in the morning.” Ji Qian’s eyes lit up when she heard Shen Hanxing’s voice. She quickly asked for help, “She’s leaving without saying why. Sister-in-law, please convince her to stay!”
“Qiao Xi, what are you doing?” Shen Hanxing’s heart skipped a beat, but she did not show it on her face. She walked down the stairs and was slightly surprised when she saw Qiao Xi’s appearance. “Your clothes… What are you doing?”
Shen Hanxing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Qiao Xi was wearing a long cotton dress, and it was obvious that she had been wearing it for quite some time. The white neckline was slightly yellow, but it was very clean. The long dress reached her ankles and covered her entire body. It looked gray and ancient. Her braid fell to her chest, just like when they first met. She looked very simple.
It was no wonder that Shen Hanxing was surprised. Ever since Qiao Xi had arrived at the Ji house, she had been trying to dress like Shen Hanxing. Her long hair was either let loose or pulled up in a bun. Her dress style was simple and elegant, and the colors had changed from the previous gray and white. Now that she changed back into her old style, she looked like a completely different person.
