Ye Moxuan’s eyes turned stern and asked, “Who gave you the permission to call her Aunty?”
His body suddenly emitted a chilly air, which frightened Shen Qi. She shrunk back and looked downward fearfully in silence.
“Look who you are talking to!” Song An glared at Ye Moxuan angrily. “How can you talk this way to your wife? Shen Qi, ignore him. Have a good rest tonight. I’ll teach him a lesson.”
After saying that, Song An immediately got up and walked toward Ye Moxuan. Ye Moxuan’s brows knitted and before he could react to the situation, Song An had already reached out to pull his ear. “Come out!”
His handsome face, which had been a blank slate, completely changed at once. Shen Qi was startled to see that as she had never seen such an expression appear on his face before this; it was a mixture of anger and embarrassment. However, he couldn’t rebuke his aunt and could only say coldly, “Let me go!”
“No way.” Song An pulled his ear. “Come out with me. I have something to tell you.”
“Damn!” Ye Moxuan’s face turned livid, but he could only follow her obediently.
After they went out, Shen Qi subconsciously looked to Xiao Su who was standing beside her and felt a little bit awkward.
“Well… That’s Young Master Ye’s aunt—the only person in the world who can control Young Master Ye.”
Ye Moxuan was indeed cold and merciless, but he still showed his respect to his aunt. After all, he still could go out with her without cursing her even though his expression had changed so drastically to one of rage. Indeed, he still held respect for his elders.
But if it was Old Master Ye, Ye Moxuan would probably start to talk back to him.
Outside of the room, Song An’s hand was still on his ear. “Look at what you did. You’re a man; don’t you feel any sense of shame, bullying a woman like that?”
“Since when did I bully her? Let go!” Although Ye Moxuan was a man with a strong body, Song An was powerful enough to pull his ear hard until it turned red.
Song An wasn’t the least bit bothered by his cold stony face.
“You didn’t bully her? Then why are you so fierce to her? Don’t you know that you should be more gentlemanly to a woman? Fine. I know that you are all cold and haughty, never really bothering about other women, but Shen Qi is your wife, and you should play your role as her husband!”
Ye Moxuan remained silent.
“Do you hear me?”
Ye Moxuan scowled and said annoyingly, “Aunty, this is my private life. You don’t have to teach me what to do.”
Listening to that, Song An’s brows were knitted together at once. “Are you irritated at me for being nosy? Your mother asked me to look after you before she passed away, and this is the way you treat me as your aunt?!”
Ye Moxuan remained silent with his piercing gaze.
Feeling the change in his air and emotion, Song An pouted and retrieved her hand from his ear.
“Fine. I didn’t mean it. Don’t go too much into it. But remember that I have told you to be gentler to Shen Qi. She is a good lady.”
Listening to that, Ye Moxuan raised his brow in doubt and sneered, “How are you sure that she is a good lady?”
“Look at yourself—you’re in a wheelchair. Who would want to marry you?”
“There’re plenty of girls who want to marry into the Ye Family,” said Ye Moxuan.
“Indeed, they want to marry into the Ye Family, not to marry you. If you’re not a part of the Ye Family and not the president of the Ye Group, do you think there will be any woman who would want to be with you unless they are blind?” Song An did not show any mercy to Ye Moxuan at all. Her words were straightforward and offensive, her tongue no less sharp than Ye Moxuan’s.
Ye Moxuan scowled and said in displeasure, “What benefits do you gain for insulting me like this?”
“I’m just stating the truth. I just want to tell you that Shen Qi is really a good lady. You’ll definitely regret it if you don’t appreciate her.”
“How do you know if she didn’t marry me for the sake of money?”
“Pfft.” Song An sneered. Crossing her arms across her chest, she glared at Ye Moxuan in contempt. “If she really is a materialistic woman, she would have aborted her baby before marrying you. Not to mention that she is trying so hard to protect her baby even after you have found out the truth.”
“It’s because she still has feelings toward her ex-husband.”
“Based on what I know, she doesn’t have any feelings toward her ex-husband anymore. She is just protecting the baby from the perspective of a mother. That’s all.”
Ye Moxuan sneered and refused to agree with her.
“I heard from Xiao Su that she defended you when the others laughed at your disability. Moxuan, if you still think that this kind of woman is materialistic, then you’re really blind!”
“It’s getting late now. I’ll let Xiao Su send you back.” Ye Moxuan didn’t want to continue arguing with her,so he directly rolled his wheelchair out of the room.
Staring at his back, Song An raised her voice and said, “You little brat, are you angry just because of a few words of advice? Fine; I’ll leave first.”
Xiao Su was summoned to send Song An back.
Only Ye Moxuan and Shen Qi were left in the room. Thinking of what had happened before this, Shen Qi didn’t have the guts to face Ye Moxuan at all. Hence, as soon as he came into the room, she immediately got back into bed and pretended to sleep with the blanket covering her.
The sounds of the wheels rolling stopped by the bed and Shen Qi quickly closed her eyes.
Ye Moxuan’s emotionless voice sounded from behind. “Miss Second-marriage.”
Shen Qi’s ear twitched but her body remained motionless on the bed.
“Help me on the bed.”
Shen Qi gaped in shock. Does he want to sleep here tonight?
She didn’t move and pretended that she had fallen asleep.
“Is this how you treat your savior?” Ye Moxuan asked.
“Isn’t there another bedroom?” Shen Qi asked weakly.
Ye Moxuan booked a suite room so there was another bedroom next to this room. She used to sleep separately with Ye Moxuan so she wished that they could be the same as before.
Ye Moxuan sneered and said, “I want to sleep here tonight.”
Helpless, Shen Qi could only get off the bed slowly. “I’ll help you get into the bed. You may sleep here. I’ll go to another room.”
After saying that, she walked to Ye Moxuan and moved to help him up but she found that he was reluctant to move. Her pretty brows furrowed and she raised her gaze to look at him confusedly.
“How can I help you up if you don’t want to move?”
Ye Moxuan glared at her and sneered. “Help me up to the bed and you go to sleep in the other room? Miss Second-marriage, you’re so cruel. You were hugging me tight when you were drugged a while ago. Why didn’t you say so just now?”
Shen Qi’s expression changed as soon as he mentioned the drugging.
Ye Moxuan seized her wrist and placed her hand on his neck.
“I believe you have seen your masterpiece. This, this and this, these were all left by you,” he said in a husky voice, grabbing her hand and moving it around his neck to touch a few places.
Shen Qi was dumbfounded at the beginning and soon she became guilty, attempting to pull her hand out of his grip but failed. Ye Moxuan pressed her hand hard on his chest.
“Look at you. You really want me, don’t you? But now you’re turning me out. Miss Second-marriage, are you playing hard to get?”
