Little Miss Devil:The President's Mischievous Wife

Lu Xinyi opened her eyes and saw him staring at her.

"What?"

Shen Yi shrugged his shoulders. He really didn't want to piss her off before he could lay down his proposal.

"Well, about the deal I was talking about earlier, I want you to—"

"Hey, look. Your girlfriend is watching us." Lu Xinyi pointed a finger on Xia Yuhan's direction, the girl getting caught off guard. Her eyes so wide; she looked like a kid caught stealing a cookie from a jar.

Following her finger, Shen Yi cursed to himself for not noticing that Xia Yuhan had been watching them the whole time. He couldn't make a deal with Lu Xinyi like this. Disappointed that he cannot talk to his Miss Pancakes without disturbance, he replaced the smile on his face with a scowl.

He abruptly sat up from his seat, surprising Lu Xinyi. He grabbed her arm and forced her to follow him.

"Hey! My food! I'm not done with my breakfast yet," Lu Xinyi complained as she tried to struggle from his tight hold.

"Oh? I think you're already done, my love. You are just eating dessert. Aren't you afraid that I will replace you with a beautiful sexy woman?" Shen Yi sounded louder than his usual tone.

Lu Xinyi gaped at him and once again didn't notice that she allowed him to drag her somewhere else. Why was he parading her as his lover anyway?

"Like I care! Gimme back my cheesecake!" she whined, but Shen Yi ignored her words.

"But my love, I thought you said you need to lose weight?"

She threw a glare to Mr. Hollandaise. Rude! How dare he use the weight card to defeat her? She wasn't overweight in the first place. Well, she might have overeaten these past few days, but hey, being broken-hearted was a good reason to eat anything she wants.

Lu Xinyi pulled her arm but failed. She could only look back at the table where her delicious cheesecake was left behind.

'So long, my cheesecake,'

Sobs.

'This evil man has separated the two of us, but I must come back at him with vengeance.'

Sobs.

She was so distracted by her favorite dessert that she didn't realize Shen Yi brought her to one of the private suites on the cruise ship.

'Too late to run away now, eh? Xinyi?'

Her eyes wandered around. She really didn't expect this was what the luxury suites would look like. She'd never been to one, but assuming that rich people like to get the best among the rest, maybe she shouldn't be surprised.

Shen Yi let her look around his suite and was amused to see her eyes sparkling with delight.

"This is your suite?" she asked.

"Yes,"

"Holy sh*t. Are you a drug lord or something?" Lu Xinyi exclaimed. Her jaw dropped when she stepped into his suite. She was really surprised to see the difference between her cabin and his suite. It made her cabin look a shoebox compared to his.

"The words that come out of your mouth sometimes...." he sighed. "I work in a real estate company. What do you think I'm doing?"

Lu Xinyi turned around to face him. She then looked at him from head to toe that made Shen Yi uncomfortable in his spot. He had a share of admirers that gave him the 'up and down gaze' and flirty smiles. He was already used to the giggling sounds women make whenever he walks along the lobby of their office.

But this… somehow, it felt different for him.

She sat down at the leather couch on his living room. His suite was complete with high-end amenities. By her estimation, this could be around a hundred square meter in size. There was even a private bar set-up across her. She wouldn't be surprised if he got a full-size bed in his bedroom with nifty lighting effects and a large round window to give him a better view of the outside.

Lu Xinyi tilted her head on one side.

"A stiff businessman…" she paused. "Please tell me, you aren't a fugitive on the run?"

Upon hearing her words, Shen Yi couldn't stop himself and burst into laughter. Miss Pancakes was really something.

"Why are those the only options?" he asked while he tried to suppress his laughter.

Lu Xinyi shrugged her shoulders and pouted.

"Because Mr. Hollandaise, I don't know all the positions in a company," she confessed.

"What did you just call me?"

She blinked. He stared at her, waiting for an explanation.

"Because you wouldn't tell me your name even though I told you mine. I assume you don't want me to know who you are, so I'll just call you Mr. Hollandaise from now on."

Shen Yi nodded. Her explanation makes sense. At least now he knew she wouldn't force him to say his name and identity.

"That's fine, Miss Pancakes."

That name again! Why was he still calling her with that nickname when she already gave him her name? Lu Xinyi gritted her teeth. This man surely knew how to push the wrong buttons on her.

"Why are you calling me Miss Pancakes anyway?"

Instead of answering her question, Shen Yi stared directly on her face before moving his gaze down to her flat chest. Following the direction, he was looking at, she…

"..."

Silence engulfed the two of them.
