Chapter 695: Chapter 695: Do You Believe I Will Marry Someone with Xiaobao Right Away
“Don’t forget, Xiaobao is still with me.” Zhixi lay on the bed, face up, clutching the phone in one hand and placing the other on her lower abdomen, “He Jingyao, do you believe I could take Xiaobao and get married right away?”
“Don’t believe it.” He slowly drawled out these two words.
Zhixi was so angry she ground her teeth, about to issue a harsh threat, when the man suddenly chuckled lightly, “Behave, get some sleep early.”
His deep and husky voice traveled through the airwaves into her ears, making them inexplicably warm as if she could feel his burning breath even across the waves.
“If you hadn’t called me, I would have already been asleep!” Zhixi huffed, her voice inadvertently taking on a whiny tone.
“Hmm, my fault for dialing the wrong number.” He curved his lips, his voice growing even deeper, “I’ll come to pick up Xiaobao tomorrow morning. See you then.”
Zhixi felt her heartbeat starting to falter again, and she let out a meek “oh.”
“Good night.” He chuckled again as he said these two words.
Finally, Zhixi couldn’t hold on any longer, hastily said “Good night” and hurriedly hung up the phone.
She touched her wildly thumping heart, unable to help but silently curse.
This man… making a random call to disturb her mood, and still having the nerve to wish her “good night.”
She turned over, suddenly feeling… that the bed was too big and too empty.
After a moment’s thought, she picked up her phone again, flipping through her contacts.
Lu Qixi stepped out of the shower, looked at her empty bedroom, and suddenly felt a wave of loss.
She stretched out to whack her own head! Feeling loss for what, eagerly waiting for him to sleep with you?
Lu Qixi, annoyed with herself and without a hint of sleepiness — and with her phone confiscated by that someone — simply sat down on the sofa, turned on the TV, and popped in one of her own albums.
It was her second album since her debut, the one that made the name Lu Qixi echo throughout the music industry. Every song was a hit, and they all came with corresponding music videos. Watching herself on the screen, she was still not quite adept at handling the camera back then, and some movements inevitably appeared contrived. But back then, she was full of passion, as if she never knew the meaning of fatigue.
As she watched, she couldn’t help but space out, so much so that she didn’t notice someone had entered the room.
It wasn’t until someone sat next to her that she turned, looking shocked!
The man was dressed in home attire, his hair still slightly damp, appearing lazy and relaxed.
His gaze drifted from the screen to her, a hint of amusement in his eyes, “Lu Qixi, I didn’t expect you to be such a narcissist.”
“That’s because you confiscated my phone.” She huffed, diverting her gaze.
Ning Yichen turned to glance at her, this woman with such outstanding skin, especially clean and translucent after removing her makeup, watching the screen intently now, just like an innocent teenager.
“This song… is it ‘Singer’?” Ning Yichen listened to the melody and suddenly laughed, “I quite one, it seems… you wrote the lyrics yourself?”
Lu Qixi looked at him in surprise, “You’ve heard it?”
And he knew she wrote the lyrics herself? The most update n0vels are published on noᴠelfire.net
“How could I possibly not have heard your songs.” He gave her a cool glance.
That statement made a faint ripple stir within Lu Qixi’s heart.
“I thought you never paid attention to these things.” She pursed her lips, “You never mentioned it to me before.”
