To feel aroused now… Han Muzi looked distracted; alarm bells were ringing in her head, warning her that this situation could not go on. However, her body was not resisting. Under the urging of Ye Moxuan’s sexy appearance, her hands slowly wrapped around his neck as she began to respond passionately; she was lost in a delirious frenzy.
Before, Ye Moxuan had struggled to make a move on her as she was not responsive and had resisted his advances per usual. However, now that she began responding to his advances, he realized how bad the situation had become. Initially, he had only intended to playfully tease her. Since he couldn’t have the main course, a little appetizer wouldn’t hurt, right? But, now…
Lost in a delirious state, she suddenly felt the person pressing his body down on her roll over then sat on the edge of the bed. She was pregnant, so he could only hold her tenderly in the palms of his hands, for fear of hurting her. After being teased so badly, she had made her decision, but he promptly rolled over and moved away. Why?
“What’s wrong?” Staring at his back, she moodily asked.
Turning his head to glance at her, the color of his eyes was dark—it was like there was a ball of fire dancing wildly. Pursing his lips in mild annoyance, he hoarsely muttered, “Aren’t you pregnant?”
Not understanding what he meant by that, she nodded. “Yeah.”
There was a strong sense of helplessness and insatiable desire in his eyes; when he leaned over again, she thought he was going to continue. As she prepared to reach out her hands to hug him, his thin lips simply touched against her forehead lightly, and he left again.
She stared after him speechlessly. Is it over just like that? Frowning, she watched as he tucked her into her blanket. His voice was gentle but restrained as he said, “Go to sleep.”
What… is wrong with this guy? If he isn’t going to continue, then why did he suddenly decide to tease me? Not only is he refusing to take responsibility after turning me on, but he also left me in this d*mn state! As the thought crossed her mind, she couldn’t control her irritation and pushed her foot out of the blanket to kick him. Then, she quickly pulled the blanket back into place and rolled over, turning her back to him. Fine, if you don’t want to, then so be it—the one who is going to be uncomfortable isn’t me anyway. If he just wanted to tease me, then refuse to continue after turning me on, he can wallow in his sexual frustration.
After turning her back toward him, she didn’t care to see how he reacted. It’s too late for him to start regretting anyway. He sat on the edge of the bed for a while, then she suddenly felt the side of the bed bounce back as he got up from the bed. Turning around to steal a glance, she realized he had escaped out to the balcony.
“Tsk. Go out to the balcony then; serves you right if you freeze to death.”
Deciding to ignore him, Han Muzi adjusted her body, got into the most comfortable position, and prepared to sleep. Now that she was pregnant, she was constantly lethargic and fell asleep quickly. In the beginning, she was looking at the figure of his back, but as she continued looking, her eyelids became heavier and heavier. Then, unable to keep her eyes open, she closed her eyes. From that moment on, she couldn’t remember what happened after that.
On the other hand, after hearing Han Muzi’s voice, Xiao Su had wanted to plead for her to help him, but for some reason, the call was suddenly ended from Ye Moxuan’s side. Pondering over it, Xiao Su didn’t dare to call back again. So, he sat by the edge of the bed and stared at his phone in frustration. To assign this kind of task to him, he might as well have asked him to plunge into a sea of flames. At least then, Xiao Su wouldn’t be as wishy-washy as he was now and be at their every beck and call.
After waiting for half the night, he didn’t receive a call from Ye Moxuan again. He began to wonder if he should just go to sleep and pretend that he had never received a call from him in the first place. Thinking about it, he decided that it was not a bad idea. Thus, he started to tidy up. The moment he turned off the lights and prepared to go to sleep, his phone vibrated. Shuddering, he glanced at the message and nearly fainted. The message was from Ye Moxuan, and only had a single line: ‘I want the documents the day after tomorrow.’
The day after tomorrow?! He was tempted to ask whether Ye Moxuan realized that it was already the middle of the night today. By the time he went to sleep and woke up the next day, he would only have a day’s worth of time left. Furthermore, he would be working during the day. Mulling over it, he decided to try to beg for more time. Therefore, he took out his phone and started typing.
Ye Moxuan sat on a chair on the balcony; his legs were folded leisurely as he leaned back with his eyes closed. His expression revealed nothing, but his deeply frowning eyebrows looked like he was restraining himself greatly. Despite the cold winter night, his forehead was beaded with cold sweat.
Beep! His phone rang and he looked down at it. Xiao Su had sent a message to him. ‘Can I delay the deadline by two more days? This task… is extremely difficult.’
Expressionlessly, Ye Moxuan typed back in reply. ‘No.’
‘Then, do you want it during the day or the night of the day after tomorrow?’
‘8 in the morning.’
Xiao Su was rendered speechless. A strong sense of disbelief and incredulity washed across his heart; he wanted to lash out and question the other party concerned. However, in the end, he placed his phone down, lay down on his bed, and mechanically covered himself with the blanket. Then, he closed his eyes peacefully. Yes, peacefully. Knowing the difficulty of this task, I might die peacefully from it. Haha…
Knowing Young Master Ye’s personality, he should not have asked. Since Young Master Ye had not specified what time he wanted it, and only mentioned he wanted it on the day after tomorrow, Xiao Su could have dragged it out until the end of the day. Now, things were for the worse—he had dug his own grave.
…
Since Yan resigned, she had not looked for another job. There was a reason why it had been a long time since she went home. When she accompanied Han Muzi overseas previously, she quit her job at the finance department of the Ye Group.
The head of the finance department just so happened to be her father, and he had been furious at her resignation. After all, it was a great career opportunity; if she gave it up, then another person would quickly take her place. By then, even if she regretted her choice, she would never get another chance.
Be that as it may, Yan believed that Ye Moxuan was a scumbag and refused to work in his company any longer. She even went so far as to advise her father against working for him. It made her father so angry that he cursed at her. Pointing at her nose, he threatened that if she resigned from her post, he would disown her and end their father-daughter relationship; he even said that she should never return.
At that time, Yan was young and foolishly spirited. Although she intended to persuade him nicely, in the face of her father’s stubbornness, she felt that it would be humiliating if she gave in to him. Therefore, she broke off their father-daughter relationship on the spot and claimed that she would never return. In a blink of an eye, so many years had passed; not once did her father call her, and they had no contact with each other since. Only her mother would call her up every year, asking her when she was coming home.
Back then, Yan wondered, why isn’t my father the one that called me? He has never asked me to go home; if I go back now, won’t it be humiliating?
