“Rong Yan, don’t tell me that you need a pillow again!” Luo Anning barked, gritting her teeth angrily.
“Mm…” he murmured incoherently while hugging her.
Luo Anning was infuriated. She had clearly instructed Auntie Li to place a whole array of pillows that were of different shapes and sizes, in Rong Yan’s bedroom. Yet, he still said that he was lacking a pillow?
She stared at Rong Yan who was sleeping soundly beneath the dim, yellow light. However, she was feeling extremely uncomfortable and hence stuck her leg out to kick him off the bed without hesitation.
Rong Yan was caught off guard and was kicked off the bed by Luo Anning.
He crawled up with a sullen expression and glared at her sternly. “Luo Anning how dare you kick me!”
Luo Anning smiled, and blinked innocently. “I’m sorry, Young Master Rong, I don’t sleep well so it’s inevitable for me to kick you off the bed.”
Rong Yan clenched his fists tightly and took a deep breath before moving onto the bed again. He then wrapped his legs around her tightly and said with a sinister smile, “Since it’s inevitable, I might as well take precautions.”
Luo Anning moved her body, only to realize that she had been restricted by him, so much so that she could not move at all. Just as she was feeling angered, Rong Yan pressed his chin against her head and said, “Stop kicking up a fuss. I’m tired… ”
Who was the one kicking up a fuss?
Am I not tired too?
Who would be able to sleep well while being hugged by a man in an uncomfortable position at night?
Her body stiffened as she heard the sounds of him breathing rhythmically. She could not fall asleep at all. Rong Yan smacked her head and said, “Relax.”
Luo Anning turned around and stared at Rong Yan whom she thought had already fallen asleep. She asked curiously, “Rong Yan, why do you have to squeeze onto my bed when you have your own? You’re out to disturb me, aren’t you?”
“No.”
“Why are you doing this then?”
After giving it some thought, Rong Yan said, “I can’t fall asleep.”
So?
He’s treating me like his pillow and hugging me just because he can’t sleep?
……
On the following day, Luo Anning received a call from Old Mr. Rong when she was having lunch in the dining hall. She was so shocked that she almost toppled her bowl.
“Grandpa, did I hear you correctly? You want me to follow Rong Yan on a business trip?”
“…”
“Grandpa, that can’t do. This is inappropriate. We’ll be setting a bad example for the employees since people don’t usually bring their family members along on a business trip.”
“…”
“But, I can’t help him much. I won’t be of any use.”
“…”
“… Alright then.” Luo Anning ended the call morosely and instantly lost her appetite as she stared at the sumptuous spread on the table.
Auntie Li asked, “Young Madam, what’s the matter? Are you in a bad mood?”
Luo Anning nodded distractedly and immediately instructed Auntie Li to help her pack her luggage. Auntie Li asked in shock, “Young Madam, are you going away on a business trip?”
“Yeah, I’m going to England together with Young Master Rong.”
Upon hearing her words, Auntie Li clapped delightedly and cheered, “Alright, alright, I’ll go upstairs to pack your luggage right now.”
The matter cropped up too abruptly and by the time Auntie Li was done with packing the luggage, Uncle Zhang had already arrived at Luxury Mansion. He handed her the flight tickets.
It seemed she had no excuse to refuse anymore. Old Mr. Rong was really ruthless. He did not give her a chance to reject him at all!
Uncle Zhang said, “Young Madam, Old Mr. Rong would like me to send you to the airport. Young Master Rong is almost there too. We’ll make it just in time if we set off now.”
