Chapter 296: Chapter 296: Like a Wonderland
From a distance, Su Zixi could see Hades Manor lit up brightly.
She struggled out of someone’s embrace, her face flushed as she adjusted her clothes, and as soon as the car stopped, she hurriedly got out.
As if a ferocious beast was chasing her from behind.
He Jingyao hooked the corner of his lips and gracefully stepped out of the car, following her steps.
This woman, timid as a rabbit.
Yet at times, like a cat, her fur bristled at the slightest provocation.
He Jingyao couldn’t help but recall the afternoon when she had sat on him to ease his pain…
His body tensed, his Adam’s apple bobbing slightly.
He involuntarily quickened his steps.
“Young Master, Young Mistress,” Uncle Li stood at the door waiting for them, his tone very emotional.
“Uncle Li, sorry to have worried you,” Su Zixi said, noting the slight redness around his eyes, suddenly feeling moved.
“Young Mistress, don’t say that, I’m really ashamed,” Uncle Li sighed, “The kitchen has prepared some snacks, please have some with the master.”
Su Zixi, seeing a flash of guilt on Uncle Li’s face, suddenly understood.
Probably, Uncle Li was the one advising He Jingyao to be “sensible” when Xia Xinyu asked him to make a choice.
Su Zixi smiled and didn’t mind. After all, as long as He Jingyao never gave up on her, she didn’t care about the choices of others.
“That’s great,” Su Zixi turned and took He Jingyao’s arm, “Let’s head to the dining room for some food.”
He Jingyao raised an eyebrow at her, “You’ve already had two meals this evening.”
She had eaten something in her own ward and had quite a lot more in He Jingyao’s room.
Su Zixi’s face turned red, then she said assertively, “I’ve had huge expenditures today!”
He Jingyao’s gaze deepened, then he chuckled lowly, “Mm, your expenditures were indeed large, you should eat more.”
Saying this, he caught her wrist and led her toward the dining room.
Su Zixi belatedly realized what he meant by “expenditures” and glared at him forcefully.
He Jingyao laughed, extending his hand to wrap around her waist.
Su Zixi inexplicably felt a bit weak in the knees… No, she definitely couldn’t let this man have his way with her so easily anymore, she warned herself internally.
Upon entering the dining room, Su Zixi was greatly shocked.
As far as the eye could see, there were various flowers…
Tulips, Baby’s Breath, red roses, lilies, balloon flowers… Su Zixi suddenly felt a bit breathless.
The dining room, originally classical and elegant, turned into something like a fairyland with the addition of the flowers. Su Zixi felt that if the legendary Eden Garden really existed, it would be just !
She looked at the man beside her with surprise, “Did you prepare this for me?”
He Jingyao was also a bit surprised, but seeing Su Zixi’s sparkling eyes, he certainly wouldn’t let her know that.
He smiled slightly, “Do you like it?”
“Mm, I really like it!” Su Zixi nodded vigorously.
Such a beautiful scene could overwhelm any woman!
If He Jingyao proposed to her at this moment, she would certainly accept without hesitation!
Er… wait, they were already married.
Remembering this, Su Zixi suddenly felt a bit of regret, but such a surprise was enough to make up for it… she comforted herself.
“I was actually planning to select them personally for you,” He Jingyao suddenly said.
He remembered that these flowers were originally prepared for the evening’s date.
