Chapter 1023 - Belief (1/2)

The bedroom door was pushed open from inside suddenly and both An Feng and the butler froze.

An Feng met the eyes of the woman who opened the door.

The woman had a large male nightgown on her, her long hair wet against her shoulders. An Feng’s gaze landed on the woman’s face, her eyes constricting a little.

It was clear the woman had just finished showering. She didn’t have any makeup on, so An Feng could tell that her skin wasn’t very good, her age showing. However, her facial features were pretty and clean, her eyes bright while her aura was gentle and quiet. She wasn’t tall, but her proportions were rather good.

An Feng was dazed for that one second.

Why would this woman whose aura was slightly similar to hers be in Helian Xiao’s room? Also, why was she wearing his nightgown?

The butler froze as well. He only knew that the Old Madam had brought a woman back, but he didn’t expect for her to bring the woman to his Master’s bedroom.

The butler was an old butler that had served the Helian family for many years. Many years ago, he had seen this woman in the bedroom.

If he didn’t remember wrongly, she was probably Master’s first girlfriend, Kuang Meiyue.

Old Madam actually brought her here.

The butler was still thinking of a way to break the awkwardness when Helian Xiao walked over quickly.

“Butler, please bring An Feng to the guest room first.”

An Feng glanced at Helian Xiao, not asking anything before she turned around to follow behind the butler.

Helian Xiao stared at An Feng’s back, hurriedly chasing after them to grab her slender hand. He said hoa.r.s.ely, “I’ll explain to you later.”

An Feng was not an unreasonable person, and she nodded, “Okay.”

After watching An Feng enter the guest room, Helian Xiao finally turned around to walk towards his bedroom.

Kuang Meiyue was standing by the door, her eyes fixed on Helian Xiao the moment he appeared.

He was as handsome and tall as he was back then. As time pa.s.sed, the masculine aura he exuded only became more attractive.

Kuang Meiyue stared at his handsome features as she caressed her own face. She didn’t take very good care of her skin, so her skin isn’t as smooth and firm as it was when she was young. Faint wrinkles had also appeared by the corners of her eyes.

However, she knew that she was still pretty.

Seeing Helian Xiao walk over, Kuang Meiyue took a few steps back. Helian Xiao entered the room and stared at her with dark eyes.

She tightened her hold on the nightgown’s belt in unease, not daring to meet his eyes.

Helian Xiao stared at Kuang Meiyue for a few seconds, before he spoke with a furrow at his eyebrows, “Change your clothes and tidy your luggage. I’ll get someone to send you away.”

After finding out the truth behind what happened back then, Helian Xiao felt rather guilty towards her, because it was because of him.

Kuang Meiyue immediately looked up into Helian Xiao’s eyes, her eyes slowly turning red as she said, “Old Madam brought me here, she said… she said…”

Helian Xiao interrupted Kuang Meiyue, furrowing his eyebrows. He said, “My Mom didn’t understand the situation and didn’t know that I already have someone I would like to be my wife.”

Noting the glint of gentleness flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes, Kuang Meiyue’s nails sunk into her palm, her lashes fluttering. “Was it that woman earlier?”

Helian Xiao hummed openedly.

Kuang Meiyue nodded, not asking anything more. She took out her clothes from her luggage and went to the bathroom to change her clothes, before she took her luggage and left the room.

After the Old Madam saw Helian Xiao and Kuang Meiyue coming down one after another, she stopped Helian Xiao, saying softly, “Kuang Meiyue divorced with her husband not too long ago. I heard that she had been abused. I brought her over and gave her hope, now that you’re chasing her away, she must feel sad. You should bring her to a hotel personally and have a proper chat with her after she’s checked-in properly.”
