Song Song instinctively wanted to refuse. Being alone with him made her feel breathless, let alone reading the report. But at this moment, the man who was originally sitting on the sofa actually stood up, his sword-like eyebrows and long eyes, with a serious expression said, "Into the room."
"Wha, what?" Song Song was instantly dumbfounded, were they really going to read in the room?
Could she refuse? Was it possible?
They weren’t really familiar, besides that marriage certificate, they had only met a handful of times before.
The room is a very private space...
How can he enter her room?
Sister-in-law Zhou saw Song Song standing there completely still, and with an expression of resistance, she internally lamented that Song Song hadn’t grasped her kind intentions.
Oh well, if you’re helping someone, help them all the way, as if delivering a Buddha to the West.
She went over and said with a proper tone, "Young Madam, aren’t you going with him? The young master’s temper has never been good, he detests people disobeying him. If 5,000 words turn into 10,000 or even 20,000 words, wouldn’t that be worse?"
Upon hearing this, Song Song was a bit shocked and distressed. She had worked hard to fabricate those 5,000 words, she couldn’t handle more.
"Okay, I understand, thank you, Sister-in-law Zhou..."
Sister-in-law Zhou smiled faintly and waved her hand, "You’re welcome, go quickly! Perform well later."
"Mm, mm."
At this moment, Xiao Jinghuai stood at the main bedroom door and opened the door with his hand. Instantly, a roomful of youthful fragrance rushed in. His first impression of the room was clean and orderly. Two plush toys were placed on the bed, one looked a bit worn, the other seemed new.
By the time Song Song ran into the room, he was already sitting on the sofa inside the room. When he saw her come in, he said with a glum face, "Don’t waste my time anymore, if you can’t read it out this time, rewrite 10,000 words."
"..." At this moment, Song Song’s heart was in collapse. She silently thanked Sister-in-law Zhou countless times; she was right, this man’s temper really wasn’t good.
Song Song took a deep breath, walked into the room, clutching the creased report in her small hands, and started to read...
Though still as nervous as before, this time she didn’t stop after reading a few words.
Gradually, Song Song became less nervous; reading to the funny parts she couldn’t help but want to laugh...
The man sat silently there, his dark eyes watching that delicate rosy little face, and the mouth that opened and closed to enunciate, clear and translucent like summer jelly.
He suddenly felt his throat tighten...
Suddenly, Xiao Jinghuai’s mood became extremely unpleasant, and he got up from the sofa, his handsome face covered in frost, "Shut up!"
"Uh..."
Song Song was a bit perplexed at this inexplicable interruption, looking over, she saw the man with a darkening expression; did she read something wrong?
Xiao Jinghuai said nothing, directly walked out of the room, and even left the suite entirely.
When Song Song suspiciously chased after him, she saw Sister-in-law Zhou also standing at the door in a daze, "Sister-in-law Zhou, did he leave?"
"Mm." Sister-in-law Zhou nodded puzzledly, "Young Madam, what happened between you inside the room? Why does the young master look so upset?"
"Nothing! I was just continuously reading, and then he suddenly got up and left. I don’t know what’s wrong either..."
Having said that, Song Song glanced at the kitchen, the baozi she had made earlier were still steaming on the basket, she sighed, "Really changed face quicker than flipping a book, not even taking the baozi. Sister-in-law Zhou, I’ll take those baozi to school tomorrow for Bao Bei! Could you please pack them for me?"
"...Sure."
Sister-in-law Zhou felt overwhelmed by the shock she had experienced today, her mind was a little fuzzy.
She felt something was off but couldn’t pinpoint exactly what.
...
After Xiao Jinghuai left, he did not immediately go to his place, instead he drove to the Imperial Dynasty Club. As soon as he entered the private booth, he saw Jiang Yixiu holding on to a few beauties, indulging in debauchery.
When he saw Xiao Jinghuai come in, his expression held a hint of alarm, "Old Xiao, why...why are you here today?"
