Chapter 20 - Staying For The Night (2/2)

Xiao Ye opened his sleepy eyes and looked at Chi Yaoxi in a daze. He then looked at his watch and saw that it was only seven o’clock. He mumbled, “It’s still early. Let me sleep a little longer. I’m tired from jet lag.” With that said, he pulled the blanket over his face and wanted to continue sleeping.

Chi Yaoxi was anxious. It was broad daylight, and she did not know who would come later. If she was targeted by the crew’s gossipy people or entertainment reporters, she would be in big trouble.

While Xiao Ye was half-awake, he felt waves of coldness coming from his body. When he opened his eyes, he saw Chi Yaoxi standing by the sofa. The blanket he had covered was already lifted by her.

“Hurry up and get up and leave! There are too many people here, and there’s a lot of gossip. Can you bear with it if there’s a scandal or something?” Chi Yaoxi lifted her leg and kicked Xiao Ye down the sofa.

However, the man stretched lazily and dodged it. “How can you treat your friends like this?” Xiao Ye grumbled and yawned before reluctantly getting up.

After washing up briefly, he was reluctantly invited out by Chi Yaoxi.

When they arrived downstairs, Xiao Ye saw a black Rolls-Royce parked by the roadside when he walked out of the hotel. The man sitting in the driver’s seat was the man who had delivered the cake to Chi Yaoxi last night!

Xiao Ye immediately perked up and looked seriously at the movements in the car, deep in thought.

The relationship between this man and Chi Yaoxi was indeed not ordinary. He waited here early in the morning. Chi Yaoxi could not be blamed for being so nervous and chasing him away so early. However, on second thought, he was the one who stayed in Chi Yaoxi’s room last night.

At this thought, a sly smile appeared on Xiao Ye’s face as he walked towards the car.

“Good morning!” Xiao Ye came to the car window and pretended to be polite as he took the initiative to greet Li Qianming. Seeing him raise his head, he even stretched lazily. “I’m too tired. I can’t get up early even if I wanted to.”

Li Qianming was reading a document in his hand. When he heard someone talking, he looked up and saw that it was the man in Chi Yaoxi’s room last night. He frowned slightly before recovering his noble and cold expression.

That man had actually come down from upstairs early in the morning, didn’t he leave last night? He was still staying there? This woman called Chi Yaoxi… was too casual! Li Qianming could not help but frown deeply, deep in thought.

Although he knew that Chi Yaoxi was only Chenchen’s mother and getting a marriage certificate with him was just on the surface, the contract clearly stated that the two of them did not interfere with each other’s private lives.

However, seeing that this man was actually living with Chi Yaoxi, Li Qianming still felt very uncomfortable and inexplicably wanted to flare up.

Xiao Ye saw that the man in the car was only looking down at his documents and did not pay attention to him at all. He was annoyed and left the hotel resentfully.

Chi Yaoxi tidied up and went downstairs. Today was an important day. It was the little fellow’s anniversary celebration in kindergarten. The little fellow had long agreed to let Daddy and Mommy watch his performance together.

When she saw the familiar black car parked by the roadside waiting for her downstairs, Chi Yaoxi hurriedly opened the door of the backseat and got in. Looking at Li Qianming’s cold face, she instantly felt nervous. “Sorry, Sister Ming came to find me, so she came down a little late.”
