Chapter 181: Chapter 181 When It Comes
Su Zixi felt regret in an instant!
How nice it would have been if she didn’t mind, or even better, if she had never known…
However, in the next second, He Jingyao turned over and got out of bed. After straightening his clothes, he looked down at her with an emotionless expression on his handsome face, “Get some rest early.”
Su Zixi watched his resolute figure leave, and tears suddenly flowed down! In a panic, she rolled out of bed, hugging the blanket, wanting to speak up to keep him, but her throat felt as though it were blocked by something.
Even if she were to keep him, what would be the point? She couldn’t do it after all…
He must be very angry, right?
Su Zixi sat on the floor, looking lost and helpless, as if abandoned by the whole world.
After He Jingyao returned to his own room, the suppressed anger finally erupted.
The valuable decorations on the shelf were swept to the floor by his hand, but unfortunately, the thick carpeting muffled the sounds of their fall, increasing his irritation. He kicked the decoration aside before walking over to the bay window, silently staring out into the night.
Li Bo, who followed him in, gave a wry smile, picked up the decoration from the floor, placed it back on the shelf, then walked up behind He Jingyao, “Young Master.”
He Jingyao rubbed his brow, “Li Bo, it was you who suggested that I shouldn’t let Zhixi know about my illness, why?”
After a moment of contemplation, Li Bo understood and asked, “Does the Young Mistress know now?”
“Hmm,” he responded indifferently, his expression unchanged, “Now she thinks I just want to sleep with her!”
Li Bo’s mouth twitched, “Young Master, isn’t it…”
“Shut up!” He Jingyao grew more irritable, “Haven’t I been good enough to her?”
Li Bo looked at his volatile mood, truly moved.
He had never seen the Young Master so restless before. From a young age, because of his exceptional talents and his condition that prevented contact with the opposite sex, he was exceptionally logical and sharp, never at a loss due to people or circumstances.
Therefore, he always seemed composed and confident, so much so that Li Bo often forgot about his age.
But now, the Young Mistress had succeeded in making the Young Master feel defeated.
“Young Master, do you love the Young Mistress?” Li Bo asked with a smile.
He Jingyao looked at him displeased, “Don’t start with that nonsense. I have read all those books you brought me before, what’s the point of that sentimental drivel?”
“But when the day comes, you will definitely feel it,” Li Bo said confidently, “Actually, it is a good thing that the Young Mistress minds.”
He Jingyao looked at him coldly.
“It means the Young Mistress cares about you, which is why she minds your feelings for her,” Li Bo smiled, “Besides, Young Master why are you angry? Just because the Young Mistress rejected you?”
He Jingyao was silent for a long time.
Indeed, he was angry and disappointed because of her resistance, but he knew that wasn’t all there was to it.
More than that, perhaps it was because of her distrust.
Although he lacked experience with women, he knew how other men treated their women. He had always thought he was doing well enough, but Su Zixi didn’t believe it; in reality, he simply wanted to make her happy.
Thinking of this, He Jingyao couldn’t help but curse under his breath.
Certain Author: Young Master He, you should know, “To those whom much is given, much is expected, they must first be made to endure hardship, toil their muscles and bones, hunger their body…”
