Chapter 302: Chapter 302: She Made the Right Bet Chapter 302: Chapter 302: She Made the Right Bet Su Zixi didn’t oppose sharing a bed with him.
Last month, she even stayed in his room for several consecutive days. In fact, she really enjoyed the feeling of nestling in his arms. But at that time, she had her period for protection, so he didn’t make a move.
But now, it was different—now, if he wanted, he wouldn’t let her go…
And she knew just how easily this man’s desires could be aroused… If they shared a bed, she was afraid he might turn into a wolf in minutes…
Originally, Su Zixi thought the several times in the bathroom would have exhausted him, right? Wrong! Seeing him still so vibrant, Su Zixi felt it was she who was drained… Her waist and legs still felt numb…
At that thought, she couldn’t help but let the tears flow.
But He Jingyao didn’t care much about that. Seeing her obediently lift the blanket, he lay down contentedly, drawing her into his embrace and letting her rest on his arm.
Su Zixi complied, but under the covers she didn’t dare get too close… This was because earlier, when He Jingyao helped her dress, he had taken quite some time to choose a nightgown for her to wear…
She had no doubt it was intentional.
“Sleep,” the man whispered, kissing her forehead, his voice deep and gentle, “I won’t bother you anymore.”
Feeling as if she were pardoned, Su Zixi immediately hugged him, a sweet smile hanging on her lips, and fell asleep in a second.
She was really too tired from the day.
Soon, she began to snore lightly.
Even He Jingyao was momentarily taken aback, then he chuckled softly.
She lay docile in his arms, her long, thick black hair spread on the pillow, revealing her snow-white, round shoulders… The contrast between black and white was striking and enticing.
He Jingyao felt his body stir again.
But seeing her satisfied sleeping face, he could only chuckle helplessly in the end.
“Goodnight,” he whispered in her ear, eliciting a muffled grunt from Su Zixi.
It was deep autumn in Yanzhou City, and the late-night wind was piercingly cold.
Wrapped in a coat and wearing a mask, Xia Xinyu hurried along the street.
When she passed a supermarket, she stopped, walked in, and used cash to buy some food.
After successfully escaping from Tianshui City, she had turned off her phone, cutting off all communication.
She didn’t dare use cards or electronic payments, relying only on the little cash she had.
She didn’t know how long she would have to live dodging from place to place, but she didn’t dare take the risk. She knew the He Family wouldn’t let her go, regardless of whether He Jingyao and Su Zixi were rescued or not.
From the moment she decided to act, she knew she had completely abandoned her identity as the Xia Family’s heiress. The Xia family was now a place she could no longer return to.
Although she was indifferent when He Jingyao threatened her using Xia Bangguo, at least at times , she would try not to involve her parents.
As long as she did not return home, she believed He Jingyao wouldn’t make things too difficult for them. Over the past two years, holding the title of He Jingyao’s fiancée, although she had barely interacted with him, she had some understanding of his way of doing things. This man did have a ruthless side, but he was also very principled.
He would never harm the innocent.
So at that time, she was actually gambling, gambling that He Jingyao would not harm her parents, and it turned out, she was right.
And now, the only person she could rely on was He Yizheng.
