Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“It’s getting late, I should be getting back.” Shi Qianduo’s delicate little face was flushed red. She ran out like a child who was caught red-handed doing something wrong.

Shi Qianduo put on her clothes and went to change her shoes. Sister Xu advised her, “The rain is getting heavier. It’s not safe for you to go back alone. Why don’t you stay here?”

Shi Qianduo did not say anything and continued to tie her shoelaces.

Sister Xu really did not know what she was feeling awkward about. The two of them were already parents to a child, what was there to hide? Of course, she did not know the backstory between He Yian and Shi Qianduo.

Shi Qianduo put on her shoes and stood up. Just as she was about to leave, she saw He Yian walk out of the kitchen. His eyes were deep. “Big sister Xu, clean up the guest room upstairs.”

“I…” Shi qianduo was about to reject him when He Yian interrupted her coldly. “The rain is heavy and road conditions are bad. It’ll be hard to get a ride. If you insist on leaving, then I’ll have to drive you in that Maybach. If it gets scratched, you’ll have to find a way to raise money to fix it.” It was rare for He Yian to talk to her for such a long time. After he was done, he turned around and went upstairs.

‘Shi Qianduo?’

That night, she stayed there with her phone turned off. She did not want to be disturbed by the Shi family, she just wanted to have a good sleep. Perhaps it was because of the change in environment, or perhaps it was because she was upset, Shi Qianduo tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. She then got up and went to the baby’s room to accompany Jing Xing.

The baby’s room was a little far from the guest room. Shi Qianduo carefully stepped on the plush carpet in the corridor barefooted. When she passed the study room, she realized that the light was still on.

Shi Qianduo looked through the half-closed door and saw a man half-lying on the sofa in front of the window. He seemed to be asleep. There was a laptop on the coffee table in front of him. The laptop was on, and the screen was dimly lit, outlining the man’s strong, angular features.

Shi Qianduo hesitated for a moment, then pushed the door open and walked in. She did not really want to bother with him, but what if he caught a cold sleeping here like this? The point was that it was fine for him to catch a cold, but he was not allowed to infect her son.

There was a suit jacket hanging on the hanger at the door of the study room. Shi Qianduo took it and was about to cover him when her wrist was grabbed by a pair of big hands. He used a lot of strength, as if he was going to crush her wrist!

Shi Qianduo subconsciously let out a cry and tried to pull her hand back. However, she lost her balance and her body fell forward, crashing into the man’s chest without any warning.

Shi Qianduo panicked and tried to get up. After struggling in his arms for a while, she looked up subconsciously and met a pair of deep and dark eyes.

She did not know when he had woken up, but he was looking at her intensely. Then, he slowly let go of her.

Shi Qianduo also stood up quickly and rubbed her painful wrist. She glared at him angrily, “He Yian, you hurt me!”

He Yian sat up on the sofa, frowning. He did not look too good.

However, Shi Qianduo had no idea that she had touched a man’s most vulnerable spot when she was struggling on his body. Her pink lips had even rubbed against his face and neck a few times.

“Next time when I’m sleeping, don’t come near me.” He Yian said in a low voice as he draped his coat over his legs, barely hiding his embarrassment.

“Good intentions really don’t get rewarded. Be careful of being struck by lightning!” Shi qianduo mumbled unhappily.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, a thunderclap was heard, and Shi Qianduo was so scared that she winced.

He Yian’s brows relaxed, and he did not even realize that the corners of his lips curled up into a smile. He said, “Why aren’t you sleeping? What are you doing in the study?”

Shi Qianduo massaged her wrist and sat beside the sofa. She said in a muffled voice, “I can’t sleep.”

“Is there something on your mind?” He Yian looked at her, deep in thought.

Shi Qianduo leaned back on the sofa and looked at the ceiling. She pondered for a long time before she said slowly, “He Yian, have you ever been betrayed?” Her voice was very soft, as if she was murmuring to herself.

However, He Yian still heard it, but he did not answer. Just when Shi Qianduo thought he did not hear it, he suddenly mumbled, “Mm.” His eyes suddenly became so dark that it was scary.

“Then what did you do?” Shi Qianduo turned her head to look at him. Her irises were like black grapes, round and bright.

He Yian muttered to himself for a moment. “I’ll pay him back a hundred times over for what he did to me!”

In an instant, Shi Qianduo felt as if she had understood everything. What was there for her to be confused about? No matter what, those people would not let her off! She got up from the sofa and smiled brightly. “I’m going back to sleep. Good night!”

He Yian looked at her back, shook his head helplessly, and laughed. What a child!

However, Shi Qianduo seemed to have thought of something and suddenly turned back.
