Around 6 PM, Ye Xi was in the kitchen preparing di

er.

Huo Yaoting walked over and kissed her cheeks, "What are you thinking about? You didn't even notice when I came back. "

The magnetic voice sounded dissatisfied.

Ye Xi blinked his eyes, the light in his eyes had become clear, and he looked at the man's handsome face in front of him. Slowly, the corner of Ye Xi's lips curled up, "Hubby, you're back?"

"?" Huo Yaoting frowned, and looked deeply at Ye Xi.

Ye Xi's eyes flashed, and with a bit of strength, he struggled out of his embrace. He turned around and gently pushed him out of the kitchen, "The food will be ready in a while, go take a shower first, you should be able to eat it."

Huo Yaoting cast a glance at the flow stage with his double pupil, and lifted his lips, "Why are you in the mood to cook personally today?"

Ye Xi raised his eyebrows, "Everyday, you either eat outside or come back with food, aren't you bored eating?"

Huo Yaoting laughed, "You won't be tired of eating."

Ye Xi's face heated up, she retorted and hit him on the head, her voice turning soft, "Hurry and go take a bath."

Listening to her sweet and gentle voice, how could Huo Yaoting bear to let go of her? With a single exertion, he pulled her closer into his embrace.

Ye Xi's long eyelashes became wet, but she still resisted.

Huo Yaoting was displeased, he immediately bit on her lower lip, "You are not allowed to refuse!"

With Ye Xi's current state of mind, she could not continue to be with him.

Therefore, he came up with an excuse, "Ji

ian ?"

Huo Yaoting buried his head into her neck, his breath hot, "When I came back, I saw Ji

ian returning to her room, let's go to her bedroom, hm?"

Ye Xi pinched the center of his palm, extended a hand to caress his face, and gently looked at him, "I still can't ?"

"?" Huo Yaoting's face darkened, as he heavily bit the tip of her nose.

Ye Xi was really afraid of this man trying to rape him.

Thus, he hurriedly said, "I'm in pain."

Huo Yaoting suddenly took a breath, and tenderly kissed the center of her brows, his voice extremely hoarse.

Ye Xi could hear the deep love and pity in his voice, but he felt bitter and heavy in his heart. He raised his hand to hug Yun Che's neck and gently said, "It's fine, just pay attention to it next time. However, you might have to wait for me for a few days. "

After saying his last sentence, Ye Xi was so embarrassed that she had crawled into his neck.

Seeing the little girl drilling into his neck like a hamster, Huo Yaoting laughed involuntarily. He patted her head and asked, "Did you apply medicine on her?"

"Yes." Ye Xi replied gloomily from inside his neck.

Huo Yaoting pressed his voice into her ear, his voice was so damn sexy, "You wiped it yourself?"

Ye Xi tugged on his arm and said, "Nonsense!"

Huo Yaoting breathed heavily, "How did you wipe it?"

Ye Xi is really...

With a flushed face, Ye Xi pushed him away and turned around, ignoring the man who acted like a hooligan the moment he opened his mouth.

Huo Yaoting looked at her beautiful smile.

He did not laugh out loud, but Ye Xi knew that he was laughing at her, and snorted angrily: "If you don't go take a bath, there won't be any food in a while!"

So ruthless!?

Huo Yaoting rubbed her nose, then went forward to kiss her cheeks, before walking out of the kitchen with a smile on his face and headed towards the bedroom.

The sound of footsteps gradually faded behind him.

The warmth on Ye Xi's face grew colder and colder by an inch.

The family of three finished their di

er and sat on the sofa for a while. At 9, Ye Xi carried Ji

ian to his room's bathroom to shower and wash.

Only after watching the little fellow fall asleep at 9.30 a.m. did Ye Xi give the little fellow a kiss on the face before turning off the light and leaving the room.

Ye Xi walked into the living room and looked at the closed door of the study.

After pursing his lips and hesitating for a bit, Ye Xi pinched his palm and walked over with trembling hands.

Standing at the entrance of the study room through a door, Ye Xi heard the man's dark and sinister voice.

"Do you think I can't do anything to her just because she's dead?"

"Hmph, she dared to touch my people. She should have expected this outcome!"

"There is no need for Xiao Xi to know how I am going to handle this matter."

"?"

"?" Ye Xi's breathing stopped abruptly, and his face also instantly paled.

Ye Xi's hands and feet were ice-cold. The pictures that Chu Lingtian had shown her two years ago surfaced in her mind once again, causing her heart to tremble.

At ten-thirty, Huo Yaoting walked into the bedroom. He did not see Ye Xi in the bedroom that made him frown, he left the room, he casually opened the door to Ji

ian's room, but discovered that she was also not in Ji

ian's room.

Huo Yaoting squinted his eyes, then walked into the bedroom and headed straight for the balcony.

When he walked to the balcony, he saw Ye Xi, who had just finished showering and was wearing a thin nightgown, leaning against the railing with an empty gaze, staring directly at the pitch black night sky, no one knew what he was thinking about.

Huo Yaoting tensed up his face slightly, and his big hands rudely grabbed onto Ye Xi's arm.

The coolness of the tentacles foretold that she had not been standing on the balcony like this for a moment.

Huo Yaoting's face became even uglier, and with a cold expression, he bent down and carried Ye Xi.

Ye Xi only regained his senses after landing in a warm embrace, and looked at the man's delicate, tensed up lower jaw with slight panic.

Huo Yaoting didn't look at her as he carried her to the bedside. He lifted the velvet blanket and tucked her in, wrapping her up into a ball.

After making all of these movements, he didn't get up. Instead, he placed both of his arms on either side of Ye Xi's body.

Ye Xi's face was white, her lips were trembling, and it was obvious that she was trying her best to restrain herself, but she seemed extremely nervous.

Huo Yaoting stared fixedly at the unconcealable fear in her dark pupils, the maliciousness on his face was retracted bit by bit, and the cold light in his eyes was replaced with the softness of stars.

Slowly sitting up, Huo Yaoting and the duvet lifted Ye Xi up, allowing her slightly stiff body to lean into his embrace.

The wide and warm palm gently held her tight arm as she looked at her with her deep and gentle eyes. "It's winter now. If you wear so little and stand on the balcony, you'll catch a cold. Do you hear me next time?"

Ye Xi's eyelashes trembled slightly, her moist eyes lit up, her white lips nodded slightly, and she said with a trembling voice, "I heard."

Huo Yaoting looked at the mist in her eyes, and his pupils turned deeper. His fingers tenderly caressed the corners of her eyes as he sighed, "You're scared?"

"?" Ye Xi did not nod his head or shake it.

Huo Yaoting squinted his eyes, and then reached his hand out from under the blanket, and caressed her stiff back without any obstruction.

However, not only did his actions not ease her stiffness, he even felt her body becoming more and more stiff.

Huo Yaoting frowned as she stared inquiringly at Ye Xi, her gaze sweeping across her pale little face. "Are you really afraid of me?"

After he finished speaking, Ye Xi's teeth were chattering uncontrollably.

Huo Yaoting's expression slowly turned cold, "Am I a ferocious beast or a demon, why are you so afraid of me?"

Ye Xi bit his lower lip, and his eyes started to turn red.

Huo Yaoting could feel her body trembling in his embrace to varying degrees, a surge of flames suddenly rushed forth and grabbed her shoulders, "Ye ?"

"I want to ask you a question."

Just as Huo Yaoting's voice came out, he heard Ye Xi trembling as he opened his mouth.

Huo Yaoting pursed her lips, her expression did not look good, and coldly snorted, "What do you want to know?"

Ye Xi slowly sat up in his embrace, her hands hugging her knees under the blanket.

Shui Wang's large eyes stared at him, "Did you know that something happened in the Huo's Group Building?"

Huo Yaoting squinted his eyes and stared at Ye Xi for a few seconds, "What do you want to say?"

"..." Do you know that the one who fell down was Qin Susu? " Ye Xi frowned, her tears stinging in her eyes.

Huo Yaoting looked at her tears, his face like cold steel, and said slowly, "I'm the CEO of Huo's Group, do you believe me when I say that the Huo's Group Building crashed?"

Ye Xi's throat was choked with sobs, "Then, do you not know about it?"

"I know." Huo Yaoting curled her lips, but the curve of her lips was extremely cold.

The arms around Ye Xi's knees tightened, "Then do you know that the one who fell from the tower was Qin Susu?"

Huo Yaoting stared into her eyes. Those eyes were still clear and clean, but now they were filled with stubbor

ess and fear.

Narrowing his eyes, Huo Yaoting said, "Since I know about the incident at the Huo's Group Building, then I naturally know about the main character. Xiao Xi, why not directly ask the question that you want to know the most. "

Ye Xi's lips trembled intensely, his fingers under the blanket were pinching his calf more and more tightly.

She looked into his dark eyes, which were devoid of any trace of tenderness. Suddenly, she couldn't find anything to ask.

Slowly lowering his head, Ye Xi closed his eyes, "I, don't have anything else to know."

Huo Yaoting looked at Ye Xi's lowered head and her cute little ball of skin under the blanket, and suddenly felt an intense pain in his heart.

Clenching his fist, Huo Yaoting finally reached out and pulled her back into his embrace, "Xiao Xi, do you believe in me?"
