Chapter 24: Master Sheng Gets Jealous

She went to take a shower first, then changed into her pajamas and buried herself under the covers, feeling wronged and cursing Sheng Xiao.

This stinky man!

Why did he think that about her?

She was the one who spoke so well of him in front of so many people!

She was angry and couldn’t help but shed tears. She tossed and turned in bed, and eventually fell asleep.

Sheng Xiao smoked a few more cigarettes outside, then walked to the bedroom door, turned the handle, and locked it.

He chuckled in anger. This woman, usually so well-behaved, was finally showing her true colors?

He walked over to the TV cabinet, took a spare key from the drawer, and opened the door. He had to clear the air tonight, there was no such thing as letting things fester overnight!

The lights were on in the room, and Lin Yuan was also asleep with her little face buried in the pillow.

She had always been a restless sleeper, and the blanket was off her now. A silk halter top clung to her figure, making her look graceful and alluring. She was lying on her stomach, her skin mostly exposed, making Sheng Xiao’s blood boil.

He pulled the blanket over Lin Yuan, went into the bathroom to take a shower, and then came back to bed, pulling her into his arms and kissing her cheek.

Lin Yuan felt something wet and soft sliding across her face. She opened her eyes sleepily, and saw Sheng Xiao’s handsome face slowly getting closer. She hugged his neck drowsily, “Sheng Xiao.”

Sheng Xiao was stunned. This woman had a big heart. She seemed to have forgotten everything after sleeping for a while.

Sure enough, the next moment, Lin Yuan shook her head, immediately took her arm off Sheng Xiao’s neck, and turned her back to him with lightning speed.

What was she doing!

They were still arguing!

She clutched the blanket, biting her lower lip in embarrassment. She had clearly locked the door. How did this man get in?

Frowning and secretly angry, Sheng Xiao felt the emptiness in his arms. He grabbed Lin Yuan’s shoulders and pulled her back. “What are you running from?”

Lin Yuan stretched out her arms and tried to run forward, but Sheng Xiao held her slender waist tightly, making her efforts futile.

She gave up struggling and hit him repeatedly on the chest with both arms. “Let me go, you bastard!”

Sheng Xiao’s face darkened. He lowered his head and blocked her mouth.

“You son of a bitch… ugh”

“You… ugh”

“You… ugh”

Sheng Xiao propped her head up with his hand, his forehead against hers. “Can you speak properly?”

Lin Yuan wanted to scold him, but she was afraid that Sheng Xiao would be forceful with her. She lowered her head and remained silent.

She couldn’t win, so she would just be angry by herself!

Seeing that she wasn’t making a fuss anymore, Sheng Xiao rolled over and lay down, pulling Lin Yuan up to lie on his chest. “Still angry?”

He wouldn’t have said anything if he hadn’t, but the moment he did, Lin Yuan’s sense of grievance welled up again. “Why were you so harsh with me?”

“When was I harsh with you?”

Okay, although, but, he wasn’t harsh with her, but it wasn’t much better than harsh.

“You doubted me, and then you gave me the cold shoulder.”

Sheng Xiao: It was just one sentence that he didn’t reply to, and that’s called giving the cold shoulder?

Then at the company, the executives would say ten sentences and he would only reply with one, wouldn’t the executives think he was giving them the cold shoulder?

“I was just thinking about how to answer your question.”

“I don’t care, you wronged me.” Her voice had softened, not like she was angry, but more like she was being coquettish.

“Sheng Xiao, although our marriage was rushed, and we don’t have much of a foundation, but I, Lin Yuan, am not a two-faced person. I don’t go around loving everyone. If I wanted to be with a rich man, why would I have chosen you in the first place?”

Even if she was wrong, she could have ignored Sheng Xiao’s feelings and gotten a divorce on the spot.

Besides, there were countless rich people surrounding Lin Yuan. Money was never a factor in her decisions.

Sheng Xiao put his hand on her back. “Don’t you feel wronged being with me?”

“I never felt wronged before, but your attitude just now made me sad. I’m not upset that you’re angry with me, but that you don’t trust me.”

Sheng Xiao: “I don’t distrust you, I just saw you chatting intimately with other men, and I…”

Lin Yuan looked at him with tears in her eyes. “What?”

“Nothing, I won’t do it again.”

Lin Yuan: “There were so many colleagues from the company there, and there was also An Shao. It wasn’t just me and my senior brother having dinner alone. Besides, even if we were having dinner alone, it was just about work, there wouldn’t be anything else.”

She finished speaking and then realized belatedly, “Sheng Xiao, are you… jealous?”

Sheng Xiao’s face flashed with a little embarrassment. He turned his head away and didn’t look at Lin Yuan. “No.”

This awkward look was a bit of a cover-up. Lin Yuan even saw a blush creeping up his ears. Her heart leaped with joy.

Jealousy only happens to people you like, so did Sheng Xiao have feelings for her?

She didn’t care about that, and like Sheng Xiao usually did to her, she domineeringly turned his face towards her. “Sheng Xiao, you are jealous.”

There were still tears in her eyes, but her expression was one of schadenfreude, as if she had exposed some great secret of Sheng Xiao’s.

Sheng Xiao narrowed his eyes, rolled over and pressed her back down under him. A man gets jealous, he gets jealous, there’s no need to be coy.

“Yes, I’m jealous.”

Lin Yuan hadn’t even had time to be happy when Sheng Xiao had already grasped something. He almost squeezed out a few words from between his teeth. “You think that by making me jealous, I’ll let you off the hook?”

His face had a sign of a storm brewing, and Lin Yuan knew exactly what that expression meant. She dodged, slipping out from under Sheng Xiao’s body, hugging her chest and rolling and crawling to the floor.

Sheng Xiao was unprepared and was actually evaded.

He pulled the belt of his robe open with one hand and approached Lin Yuan step by step, his face deliberately fierce, like a domineering mountain bandit. “See where you’re running.”

When he reached Lin Yuan, hugged her, his clothes were basically off.

Lin Yuan’s skin was delicate and tender. He held her tightly in his arms, her skin was white and rosy.

She giggled and whimpered, her hot breath all over Sheng Xiao’s smooth chest, making the man itchy and uncomfortable. With a force, he lifted her onto his shoulders, slapped her on the buttocks with a large hand. “Little lady, you better not mess with me.”

Lin Yuan kicked her feet defiantly, “What if I mess with you?”

Sheng Xiao threw her on the bed, knelt by the bed, and pulled her feet towards him. “You can.”

“Not only can you mess with me, you can also… mess with me from behind.”

Then, Lin Yuan realized what those two ways were all about.

And tonight, she truly experienced the consequences of making him jealous.

Unprecedented savagery, taking her to the clouds again and again.

Experiencing the taste of forbidden fruit.

It was better to die than to live.
