Chapter 548: Taking a Bath with Him
Nan Zhi really could not understand how this man thought.
He was suspicious of her and his wife…
She rubbed her wrist that was hurting from his hold, looked at his cold and sharp features and said, “I’m very grateful for what you’ve done for Xiaojie. I’m sorry for misunderstanding you.”
The man looked at her submissive expression and his thin lips tightened, his handsome face still cold. “Are you here to make peace?”
Nan Zhi quickly waved her hands. “No, no…”
Before she could finish, she found that the man’s expression turned even colder.
Nan Zhi quickly said, “I’ve never thought of getting back together with you again. You need Wan’er’s support and help now, I don’t want to let people to have something on you because of me. You know that a love scandal could destroy a person.”
Hearing her words, the man’s jaw clenched and he gave a smirk. “You really have the overall interest at heart.”
His weird tone made Nan Zhi furrow her eyebrows.
If she threw caution to the winds and got together with him, and they were found out, she would be a mistress in the eyes of their people, a shameless person who destroyed his marriage with Wan’er.
Seeing that she was silent, the man eyes darkened and he laughed. “I have no care for a seductive woman like you.”
When Nan Zhi knew what he had done for Xiaojie, she felt a little guilty.
But when she heard him say this, she felt angry and aggrieved.
She did not want to talk to him anymore.
She turned and left without looking back.
When she was at the door, she heard him say coldly, “Close the door.”
The door to the room slammed shut.
…
Nan Zhi had just came out of the room when she saw a handsome little figure running up the stairs.
Xiaojie, who was wearing the uniform of the Royal Academy, ran up.
Seeing Nan Zhi, a bright smile appearing on his delicate face. “Pretty Zhizhi!”
Nan Zhi opened her arms and pulled the little fellow who was running towards her, into her arms.
Turning around several times with the little fellow in her arms, Nan Zhi was then pulled into his room excitedly.
…
Mu Sihan leaned against the bed for half an hour. His head was feeling very heavy but he was clear-headed.
Looking at the tightly closed door, he frowned.
Where did that damn woman run off to?
Taking out his phone, he looked at the time.
The brat should be back.
Since she did not come in to look for him again, she must be with the brat.
He was feeling somewhat upset
She was kind to Qiao Yanze, smiled at Shangguan Wan, close to the brat, but only to him…
His temper became bad in an instant.
Just at this moment, Bo Yan called.
“What?”
On the other end of the line, when Bo Yan heard Mu Sihan’s angry tone, he was slightly stunned before he spoke, “Abandoned again?”
Bo Yan knew him too well and knew that he was short-tempered because of that woman Nan Zhi.
“Say what you want to say.”
“Women care about status. If you can’t give it to her now, don’t provoke her.”
Mu Sihan’s face darkened. “Who said I provoked her?” He had already prepared himself not to pester her anymore today.
Bo Yan gave a low laugh. “I’ve heard you say that over 800 times. If you don’t provoke her, pigs would fly.”
Mu Sihan clenched his jaw, a sharp glint in his eyes. “Fine. You’ve got guts. You still care about that woman but still act indifferently. I think you will stay lonely forever.”
Bo Yan was silent for a few seconds before saying, “I’m having a blind date.”
Mu Sihan laughed like he had heard a very funny joke. “That woman must be very brave, but I hope you can succeed this time.”
Bo Yan was a very cold person, a coldness that came from deep within his bones.
To someone he did not like, he could say nothing from the beginning to end.
That kind of personality could suffocate people to death.
Yan Hua used to like him for years and he did not know what she had liked about him.
After ending the call with Bo Yan, Mu Sihan got up from the bed, opened the door and walked out.
When he reached the door of Xiaojie’s room, he heard cheerful laughter coming from inside.
“My Brother Jie, I didn’t expect you to receive so many love letters every day at such a young age. I’ve lived for more than twenty years and haven’t received as many love letters as you have!”
Nan Zhi opened another letter and read it aloud with a crisp voice, “From the moment I laid my eyes on you, I was attracted to your deep-set eyes, well-defined nose and sexy thin lips. All the other children in the kindergarten like Ye Xiaojie, but I don’t like him. Compared to Uncle Ye, he’s just a brat. I’ve picked up a heart-shaped stone by the beach, I hope Uncle Ye will like it… Ye Xiaojie, when you see this letter, please pass it to your Daddy… From Bei Li.”
Nan Zhi’s voice became softer and softer as she was nearing the end of the letter.
Xiaojie’s beautiful features were scrunched up and he took the letter from Nan Zhi’s hand, reading it over quickly. “There are love letters to Daddy too.”
Nan Zhi’s lips twitched. “Darling, is Bei Li your classmate?”
Xiaojie nodded. “A lot of boys like her in class. I didn’t expect her to like Daddy. Seriously? Daddy won’t even let off a four year old child.”
Nan Zhi burst out laughing. She pinched Xiaojie’s tender fair face. “When our Brother Jie grows up, you’ll be even more charming than your Daddy.”
Xiaojie wrapped his arms around Nan Zhi’s neck and said with a smile, “Anyway, I only like Pretty Zhizhi.” After saying that, he gave Nan Zhi two kisses on her face.
The man who was standing before the door that was slightly ajar, saw Xiaojie kiss Nan Zhi twice on the face and he frowned.
…
Nan Zhi prepared a sumptuous dinner.
It had been a long time since the three of them had dinner together.
Nan Zhi had all her attention on Xiaojie and kept giving him food, scooping soup for him and totally ignoring the man sitting in the master seat.
The man’s expression became more dark and he stood up and left without eating anything.
Nan Zhi looked at his icy cold back and her lips moved, but did not say anything in the end.
After dinner, Xiaojie took Nan Zhi for a walk in the back garden of the palace. After the walk, Nan Zhi wanted to help Xiaojie take a bath when suddenly she felt the surrounding air turn cold. She looked back and when she saw the man standing behind her, she was slightly shocked. Before she could say anything, the man passed her, lifting Xiaojie onto his shoulders and stepped into the bathroom in a flash.
The door to the bathroom was slammed shut.
In the bathroom, Xiaojie looked at the man whose eyes were cold. He pursed his lips. “Are you jealous that Pretty Zhizhi wants to take a bath with me?”
“What’s there to be jealous about!”
“Because she won’t take a bath with you.”
Mu Sihan gritted his teeth. “Don’t worry, I won’t allow her to take a bath with you in the future.”
