Chapter 14 Coaxing her to call him husband
Reading Settings
After the bystanders left, Zhou Jingming's gaze fell on Su Xi. He was no longer as serious as before, but rather more casual.
When did you arrive?
Su Xi sat down on the sofa, leaning casually against the back of the chair, her posture languid. "While you're taking a shower..."
"Tsk~"
Zhou Jingming sat down next to her. "What did you see?"
Su Xi stared at the man for a few moments. "I didn't see your bath photos, but I did see Miss Qiao looking disheveled and disarrayed."
Zhou Jingming's eyes were dark and unfathomable, like a deep, unfathomable sea.
What a clever Qiao Xing!
They dared to ignore his warning.
"Wait for me a moment."
Zhou Jingming got up and went to the balcony. He didn't know who he was calling. Through the glass door, Su Xi saw a different side of Zhou Jingming.
There was a fierce glint in his eyes.
It looked like it was going to eat people.
I wonder which unlucky guy messed with this thug; he's probably in big trouble!
Just as she was thinking this, her waist was encircled, and Zhou Jingming had already called back, chuckling mischievously as he kissed her eyebrows and eyes.
"How about I wash it again to show you?"
A masculine, intense aura enveloped them.
Su Xi was scalded beyond recognition.
"Okay!" She responded gracefully, showing no embarrassment or annoyance at being teased.
Zhou Jingming glanced at her delicate red lips, his gaze then wandered to her.
Her daring outfit revealed her cleavage, and her ample breasts seemed ready to burst forth.
He leaned forward, lowered his head to her slightly reddened ear, and said in a deep, seductive voice, "Why don't you take a shower with me?"
Su Xi hooked her arms around his neck, her eyes filled with seductive allure, "I want to too, but my period won't allow it!"
Zhou Jingming pinched her slender waist and chuckled with pleasure, "Are you hungry? I'll take you to eat."
His voice was exceptionally pleasant, with a captivating quality.
His breath carried a faint smell of tobacco.
Her flamboyant yet slightly dissolute nature is truly captivating.
"Miss Qiao was going to cook for you herself, aren't you going to eat?" Su Xi poked his chest muscle, grinning mischievously. "Or, why don't you take me with you and let me enjoy it too?"
Zhou Jingming suddenly cupped her face and kissed her forcefully, saying, "I'll eat what you made."
A playboy is a playboy.
Even kissing is this bad.
His tongue pried open her pearly teeth, entwining with her nimble little tongue, as skillfully as if they had done it eight hundred times.
"I still prefer the brown sugar water you make." Su Xi was breathless from the kiss and dug her nails into his back.
The next second, his body was suspended in mid-air.
The scoundrel kissed her as he lifted her up.
Su Xi's eyes sparkled as she licked his lips. "Sweetie, Auntie hasn't left yet."
"I won't touch you, I'll carry you to the rest room to lie down."
Zhou Jingming entered the room with ease and placed her on the bed. "Wait for me, the brown sugar water will be here soon."
Su Xizhen felt incredibly fortunate.
I never imagined I would receive such care from Zhou Jingming in this lifetime.
"Thank you, Young Master Zhou."
"Call me husband."
Su Xi said sweetly, "Husband~"
Zhou Jingming walked out of the room with satisfaction.
Calling this an office is an understatement; it's more like a suite.
In addition to the bedroom, there is also a kitchen.
He has already had his bodyguard buy the ingredients for brown sugar water; all he needs to do is boil it.
Shen Xian once said that women shouldn't touch water when they have their period. After he left, she might not necessarily make brown sugar water herself.
Of course, he wouldn't let her get wet either.
That's when I sent her a message asking her to come over.
As for Qiao Xing...
This woman trespassed into his private space without his permission, and she really took advantage of his good temper to provoke his bottom line?
Outside.
Qiao Xing hadn't left yet; she stood at the top of the stairs, looking at that door.
More than half an hour has passed since Su Xi went in, and she still hasn't come out.
Qiao Xing clenched her fists, her eyes red-rimmed.
Why does she have to sneak in, while Su Xi can swagger in and approach Zhou Jingming?
Could it be that Zhou Jingming really intends to spend his life with Su Xi?
"Sister Xing, didn't Young Master Zhou ask you to go in and discuss cooperation? Why are you out so soon?" The assistant went to the restroom and came back to find Qiao Xing standing outside. She asked curiously.
Qiao Xing took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. "We've finished talking."
"Let's go then," the assistant said.
She had made plans to have dinner with her boyfriend that evening and couldn't be late.
Qiao Xing gritted her teeth, unwilling to give up and turned away.
She came to see Zhou Jingming, but the bodyguard wouldn't let her in. She was about to leave when the bodyguard received a phone call and left.
This gave her the opportunity to break in.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Jingming was taking a shower.
Then Su Xi appeared.
She only stayed for ten minutes from the time she went in until she left.
Qiao Xing hated Su Xi to death. If this woman hadn't appeared, perhaps she really would have found an opportunity to go along with Zhou Jingming.
"Xiao Lan, you go first, I still have some things to take care of." Qiao Xing was unwilling to let it go like this.
Although Zhou Jingming provided her with resources and cast her as the female lead, she was always uneasy, worried that this powerful backer wouldn't last long.
Only by having a relationship with Zhou Jingming can she secure her current position.
The assistant, eager to leave, nodded, "Okay, Sister Xing, you should go home soon."
Qiao Xing said "okay".
After her assistant walked away, she went to the restroom, took out a bottle of perfume from her bag, and sprayed it on herself.
This is an aphrodisiac scent; even the most valiant man will turn into a beast upon smelling it.
Qiao Xing finished tidying up and walked out when suddenly a dark figure appeared in front of her.
The next second, her body went limp, and she lost consciousness.
...
At the hospital.
Su Rou threw herself into Li Xuemei's arms and sobbed.
After Su Xi left, the number of reporters working for the company increased significantly.
Even the haters have been attracted.
One by one, people called out to her, demanding that she come down and explain the trending topic.
Su Rou didn't dare go downstairs and stayed hidden in the company.
As evening approached, she saw the crowd disperse and tried to sneak away, but a large group of reporters rushed out from the green belt.
He held the microphone and pressed her for details about the trending topics.
The reporter also has her explicit photos.
Su Rou knew that Su Xi was responsible, and she was so angry that she fainted on the spot.
She was taken to the hospital, and as soon as she regained consciousness, she saw Li Xuemei beside her and cried out her grievances.
“Those trending topics are all fabricated by malicious people. I didn’t do those things. Mom, you have to believe me.”
Li Xuemei patted her back gently and comforted her, "You were born of your mother, so I know your true nature. On the contrary, Su Xi dresses up in a flamboyant way every day, without any trace of a 'Star Girl,' and she has disgraced our Su family."
"Mom will take care of this for you. Just focus on getting better and don't worry. Mom won't let you suffer any injustice."
Su Rou lowered her head, a hint of smugness flashing in her eyes.
Li Xuemei loved her and protected her.
No matter what she says, Li Xuemei will believe it.
Li Xuemei would stop at nothing to get what she wanted.
All of this is thanks to her being trafficked for so many years. The Su family felt guilty towards her, so they did everything they could to make amends.
Su Rou obediently lay down, tears still on her face. "It was because I was disobedient back then that I was kidnapped. I can't blame Xi'er."
"It's understandable that she harbors resentment towards me; if it weren't for me, she wouldn't..."
Li Xuemei interrupted her, "It's all Su Xi's fault. If she hadn't let her keep up with you, you wouldn't have gotten lost."
