Chapter 33 (1/2)

This was Cheng Liyue's instinctive response after having been pushed around. It was a conditioned reflex.

A faint handprint appeared on his handsome face. Cheng Liyue stared at her palm of her hand, appalled.

My G.o.d! She slapped him?

She grew alarmed.

All of a sudden the man leaned forwards. His handsome face drew terrifyingly close to hers. She let out a shaky breath, and drew back.

“You dared to hit me?” His deep voice was menacing.

Ever since he was young, he had never been reprimanded before, let alone been hit by someone. And this woman dared to slap him?

A touch of panic flashed through Cheng Liyue's face. But she swiftly retorted, “You're the one asking for it. Who asked you to act like such an a.s.shole just now…”

The man's expression darkened. “This slap will be a debt that I'll collect from you in the future.”

He then turned around and left.

Cheng Liyue exhaled a long deep breath. She had been scared to death. Her palm was smarting which indicated that the force of her slap had not been weak.

Served him right. She let out a humph.

Returning to the side of the bed, she looked down at her son's good-looking face. She sighed. Why was it that her son was conceived with this man?

How did her son manage to recognize this guy?

Because the little boy was asleep, the Gong family's dinner was held off.

Cheng Liyue sat on the carpet with her legs folded under her as she leaned forward to rest on the edge of the bed. Resting her face in the crook of her arm, she soon drifted off to sleep.

Half an hour later, the tall and lithe figure of Gong Yexiao entered the room. Looking at the scene of both mother and son sleeping in the dim room, he was slightly stunned. He switched on the wall lamp.
