22 Chapter 22 : The Beautiful Mrs. Xing (2/2)
He was also hugging her oh so tightly, her actions were limited. She can only pinch his cheeks and angrily pouted ”You stop being a pervert. I want to go home and sleep.”
Hongqi gave a heartily laugh and continued pestering Xiulan until they reached Xiulan's white Mercedes Maybach.
It was a really sweet and natural gesture. These were all seen by Tung-Yi and the staff. This was another shock for them. How can Mrs. Xing be this cute!
”So sweet!” one of female staff commented.
Tung-Yi is now confused. ”Are they still both acting or is this a natural occurrence between them? This level of sweetness is too pure.”
”Just bear with it for a little while.” Xiulan chanted to herself. She must endure all the overbearing requests of this man and the liquor smell. She's not sure if there will be a chance to divorce him. So it's better to tolerate his nonsensical wishes this early.
Xiulan concentrated in helping the 'drunk' Hongqi sit in the shotgun seat. The shameless man kept on flirting and whispering perverted words. She almost forgot to bid farewell to Tung-Yi, good thing the man coughed to get her attention.
”Mr. Wu, thank you for escorting us until here. If this happens again, please call my number.” Xiulan said and handed a business card to Tung-Yi.
Tung-Yi stared down at the card for a few seconds before accepting it. Tung-Yi never thought that someone would give him a business card just for the purpose of calling them when an emergency happens. Really weird but very refreshing idea.
”No problem, Mrs. Xing. Hope to see you again. But I really do hope our next meeting doesn't involve a drunk Hongqi.” Tung-Yi joked before he said good bye.
Xiulan quickly pace towards the driver's seat while muttering ”So cold, so cold.” She regretted that she wore such thin fabrics and even wearing a sandal. The denim jacket didn't help at all. She should atleast put on some thick socks. Her legs were icey!
As she sat on the driver's seat, she glance at the sleeping Hongqi and there was an obvious contentment on his face. It irritated Xiulan a little bit but at least her work here is done.
”Are you really drunk? You're not gonna vomit right?” She asked the unconscious Hongqi. When she didn't got any answer, she just sighed and prayed that he won't splat all of his vomit inside the car.
She was about to start the engine when Hongqi suddenly talk. ”Let's go to Golden Acre Residences. I have a penthouse there.”
Xiulan stared down at Hongqi who still has his eyes shut yet his mouth was commanding her like she was his servant.
It slightly annoys her but she must endure. ”Endure.” the ultimate mantra of Xiulan.
She really doesn't understand her role today. Tung-Yi could have done this job for him but no, he has to pester her.
She quickly searched the place in her mobile phone and tracked the route to Golden Acre Residences.
The distance was really short and it only took them ten minutes to get there.
Xiulan was amazed by the golden statues and elevator. It really lives to the golden theme and name.
They were now inside the elevator and Hongqi went back to his clingy persona again and he clutches himself to Xiulan.
There were other people inside the elevator and these people can't stop staring at the couple.
Xiulan wanted to prick each of their eyes. ”How can they shamelessly stare at us?” Xiulan silently complained. Today, she got a lot of unwanted attention and she's not happy at all!
Finally they have reached Hongqi's penthouse and the best actor still clungs himself to Xiulan.
”Hey, can you atleast open the door? Stop hugging me already!” Xiulan complained and tried her best to get out of Hongqi's arms.
The shameless Hongqi didn't let go until they went inside the penthouse.
Hongqi immediately plop his body on the soft sofa bed in the living room while Xiulan helplessly tried to look for the kitchen. She was really thirsty. Imagine a six footer man putting most of his weight on her while walking. Such drastic energy consuming activity.
She was gulping down the water. Then she took another glass and poured water in it.
She went to the living room and put the glass on the coffee table beside the soft sofa bed.
”Here, drink some water.” Xiulan said before she sits on the sofa chair. Hongqi didn't answer and continues being motionless on the sofa bed.
~complete silence~
Xiulan was waiting for Hongqi's next demand but he remains silent. It was so quiet. ”So what am I going to do now?” Xiulan asked herself.
”Uh... it's getting late. I better go if you don't have anymore requests.” Xiulan said and stands up from her seat.
Hongqi quickly twisted his head and call Xiulan's attention. ”Wait! I still have something to say.” He said and handsomely grinned.
Xiulan raised her eyebrows at him. ”Whatis he up to again?”
