There was a mocking smile at the corner of his lips. Obviously, he was deliberately humiliating her.
Shen Qi said in anger, “I thought you weren’t interested in me? Why do you have to kiss me?”
Based on her understanding, a kiss was shared between two people who were in love with each other. However, it was evident that he was disgusted by her, so how could he even bring himself to kiss her?
“Mrs. Ye, didn’t I tell you just now? My interest in you and my urge to humiliate you are two entirely different things.”
Shen Qi was stunned.
She didn’t expect that he would be that evil. As such, she wanted to walk away in a fit of rage.
“Mrs. Ye, you haven’t helped me take off my clothes yet.”
Shen Qi was speechless.
“Or do you not wish to continue on as Mrs. Ye anymore?”
This was a threat! He was laying bare his threat!
Shen Qi clenched her fists; she was so angry that her face turned pale. But very soon, she released her grip.
Forget about it! I should just tolerate him. After all, I only need to take off his clothes, right?
Shen Qi turned around and walked toward him again. Ye Moxuan noticed that her gaze had turned cold; it had become a motionless, icy glacier once again.
Sigh! This is an utter disappointment! She wants to stay in the Ye residence, yet she doesn’t know how to seduce anyone.
Shen Qi bent forward and helped him take off his pants. She blushed furiously when she noticed the bulge in his groin region, thereupon she decided to close her eyes as she tried to tug his pants down. However, since she wasn’t pulling in the right direction, she couldn’t get his pants off no matter how hard she tried.
She could only ask, “I could really use some help here.”
Ye Moxuan sat there with a cold expression on his face as he said, “Mrs. Ye, don’t you know that I am a cripple? How could I exert any force?”
Shen Qi said, “If you don’t put in some effort, there is no way I can help you.”
“Hmm. It seems like you are not much use at all!”
Shen Qi’s expression changed, then she decided to keep quiet and try her best to undress him.
Two minutes later…
Shen Qi’s hard work didn’t pay off at all.
What should I do? Shen Qi was close to crying, and her eyes started to turn red.
Ye Moxuan raised his head impatiently, preparing to teach her a lesson. It was only then that he noticed her forehead was beaded with sweat, and even her eyes were red as well.
Hence, he swallowed back his words and frowned.
What was wrong with him?
He should have chased out this unscrupulous woman, who was not just pregnant with someone else’s child but also stood in as a substitute for her sister who was about to be married into the Ye Family. How could he have given her a chance to stay here?
Ye Moxuan suddenly regained his senses, then held her wrists and pushed her.
His actions came unexpected to Shen Qi, and her skinny shoulders knocked against the hard wall. She then lifted her head and met Ye Moxuan’s cold gaze.
“Get lost!”
She clutched her throbbing shoulders and looked at him in confusion.
“You are useless! What’s the point of letting you stay here? Get lost!”
“You!” Shen Qi clenched her fists tightly; she felt that he had gone overboard.
However, when she thought about it, she realized that she didn’t help him in any way at all. Hence, the rage in her eyes vanished, and she clutched her shoulders before walking out of the bathroom slowly.
“Xiao Su!” A cold and resounding voice rang through the doors, causing Xiao Su, who was eavesdropping outside, to shudder.
“Well, aren’t you going to come in?!”
Xiao Su immediately rushed into the bathroom in a panic while scratching his head in embarrassment. “Young Master Ye, how did you know I was outside?”
Ye Moxuan gave him a cold, sideways glance. As such, Xiao Su decided to shut up.
After he was done with his bath, he came out and noticed that Shen Qi was already fast asleep. She lay curled up within the covers, and she had her entire head covered, leaving only a few wisps of black hair exposed.
He merely gave her a glance before he retracted it.
“Towel.”
Xiao Su handed him a dry towel, thereupon he dried his wet hair. Then, through his thin lips he ordered, “You may go back now.”
The words were barely out of his mouth when Shen Qi, who was fast asleep, kicked off the covers, revealing a pair of long, slender, fair legs.
She had snow-white skin, and her legs were slim as well; it had quite a visual impact.
When Xiao Su heard the rustling sound behind him, he subconsciously turned his head toward the source of the sound. The moment his gaze fell upon those pair of slender, fair legs, Ye Moxuan demanded in a cold voice, “Aren’t you going to leave?!”
The sudden coldness in his tone made Xiao Su shudder, thereafter he quickly left the room.
After he left, Ye Moxuan turned his attention toward Shen Qi and snorted coldly. “Damn it, woman! How dare you pretend to look so clueless and innocent?!”
Now that she was fast asleep, how dared she try to seduce another man?!
…
When Shen Qi woke up, Ye Moxuan had already left. She went downstairs after she washed herself up, and coincidentally, she bumped into Old Master Ye.
“Shen Yue?”
“Old Master Ye…” When she saw him, Shen Qi felt inexplicably nervous.
She had always felt that he had a penetrating gaze, as if he could see right through one’s heart; she was afraid that her identity would be quickly exposed in front of him.
“Have you been accompanying Moxuan to the company for the past two days?”
Although his tone was casual, she could make out a hint of reproachfulness in his voice. She glanced at him timidly before she said in a small voice, “I’m sorry, Old Master Ye, I felt ill for the past two days, so—”
“Ill?” Old Master Ye narrowed his sharp gaze. “I’ll ask the doctor to examine you.”
Ask the doctor to examine her? Then wouldn’t her pregnancy be exposed?
Shen Qi immediately stopped him. “No need for that, Old Master Ye. I’m merely down with a common cold. I’ll go to the pharmacy to buy some medicine in a moment.”
Old Master Ye fixed his astute eyes upon her. Shen Qi’s hair stood on its end when she saw his look, and she bit her lower lip subconsciously.
“You have a strong nasal tone. How could you get better just by eating medicine?” Old Master Ye simply sighed as he waved his hand at her, gesturing for her to move closer to him.
Shen Qi took a few steps forward before she stopped cautiously.
“Remember to buy some medicine. If you recovered a bit after taking your medicine, remember to go to the company to visit Moxuan.”
Shen Qi nodded. “I understand, Old Master Ye.”
“Alright!” Old Master Ye nodded in a satisfied manner. “Go then.”
After she left the Ye residence, Shen Qi gave Han Xueyou a call. The latter was fast as she reached within 20 minutes.
After she got into the car, Han Xueyou asked the expressionless person beside her. “Have you thought things through? Are you going to get an abortion?”
Shen Qi nodded with determination.
However, Heaven had other things in store for her…
