Chapter 1598: He Came to Pick Her Up
The young man walked to Tang Xi’s side and saw the eye-catching red lipstick mark on his face. He bared his teeth. “Brother Xi, are you going to keep this red lipstick mark forever?”
Tang Xi raised his eyebrows and a doting and affectionate expression that did not match his style flashed past his devilish face. “I like it. Besides, this lipstick mark is to tell you guys to stop giving me women!”
The young man was speechless. He was doomed. Brother Xi was serious this time. Why did he have a feeling that Brother Xi would be miserable? Because he did not think that his G.o.ddess liked him!
When Tang Xi and the young man pa.s.sed by the restaurant, Dai Xuan, who was sitting by the window, glanced outside inadvertently and happened to see Tang Xi with his hands in his pockets, a trace of evil laziness on his unrestrained handsome face.
Gu Meng and Ye Qing went to the washroom and only Ling Hui and Dai Xuan were left at the dining table. Ling Hui saw Dai Xuan’s serious expression after looking out of the window and asked in confusion, “Auntie, what are you looking at?”
Dai Xuan did not hear Ling Hui’s words and continued to look out of the French windows.
Ling Hui followed her gaze and looked outside. She happened to see Tang Xi’s figure pa.s.sing by outside.
The moment Ling Hui looked over, Tang Xi suddenly returned and glanced at her. His charming eyes were bright and captivating.
Ling Hui’s first reaction was that this man was much scarier than his bad appearance.
Tang Xi saw that Ling Hui had avoided his gaze and there was no expression on his handsome face. A short smile flashed past his lips and he continued walking forward with the young man.
Dai Xuan noticed the man’s gaze on Ling Hui. She put down the spoon in her hand and asked, “Huihui, do you know that man?”
Ling Hui bit her lips. Just as she was about to answer, she heard Dai Xuan say, “He should a Tang. If you know him, don’t get close to him and keep your distance from him.”
Ling Hui was confused. Why had Auntie said this?
Besides, she didn’t know Tang Xi’s surname.
“Auntie, do you know him?”
A deep meaning that Ling Hui did not understand flashed past Dai Xuan’s eyes as she said elegantly, “Auntie will not harm you.”
When Ling Hui saw that Dai Xuan was reluctant to say more, she nodded and hummed.
She would only be together with Tang Xi for a month at the very most. When the time came, they would become strangers.
At that time, she would listen to her aunt and keep a distance from him.
…
Gu Meng came out of the washroom and saw the man leaning against the wall, his head lowered as he answered the call.
The bright light fell on his n.o.ble and cold body, making him look even taller and more handsome.
Because of time and experience, he had become much more mature and masculine, and it was evident.
Just the action of answering the call was enough to make one’s heart flutter.
Seeing Gu Meng come out, he ended the call simply and hung up.
“I’m going to meet a foreign guest later. I set the meeting up a few days ago. I can’t send you and your mother to the tarmac.”
Gu Meng shook her head with a smile. “It’s okay.”
“I’ll go to Italy to look for you the day after tomorrow.”
“Okay.
Ye Qing grabbed Gu Meng’s slender hand and held it. He wanted to say something but restrained himself. “Let’s go.”
Gu Meng followed him and took a few steps while looking at his well-defined side profile. She called him, “Ye Qing.”
“Hm?”
Gu Meng’s bright eyes were filled with laughter. “Do you want me to kiss you before I leave?”
Ye Qing stopped, his dark eyes looking at her as he hummed softly.
Gu Meng knew that it had been hard on him recently. Her mother did not let them sleep together before they registered their marriage. When they were together, he could only look at her but not touch her. It was hard for him to not feel sad.
However, he was a gentleman. He would not go back on his promise to her mother.
That was why he had been getting frustrated recently, but he had no choice but to endure it.
Gu Meng’s heart ached for him. She stood on tiptoes and kissed his thin lips. “You can’t kiss me for too long. If not, you’ll be the one feeling sad.”
The two of them had not noticed that Dai Xuan and Ling Hui were standing in the corner.
“Auntie, let’s not go to the washroom!”
Seeing the bright smile on Gu Meng’s face, Dai Xuan could not help smiling as well. “Let’s go, we won’t disturb the couple.”
After breakfast, Ling Hui sent Dai Xuan and Gu Meng to the plane.
“Huihui, you have to be careful when you travel around the world alone.”
Ling Hui was embarra.s.sed to tell Dai Xuan that she was going to stay with a man for a month, so she had lied that she wanted to travel the world.
Ling Hui nodded. “Auntie, don’t worry. You’re usually busy with work and you must take care of your body.”
After the two of them got on the plane, Ling Hui returned to the hotel.
Ling Hui had not rested well these few days. After returning to the hotel, she turned off her phone and took a nap.
By the time she awoke, it was already four in the afternoon.
Ling Hui turned on her phone. There were several missed calls and one of them was from the big baby.
He had even sent a message that read, “Pack your luggage and find me in the bas.e.m.e.nt.”
Ling Hui’s temples throbbed uncomfortably.
There was no way of escaping this!
Ling Hui did not like to run away from her problems. Since she had agreed to it, she had to do it.
She took out a dress and planned to wear it. As if thinking of something, she put the dress down and changed into a red blouse and black tights.
…
In the hotel’s underground parking lot.
Fang Ye looked at Tang Xi, who had been waiting here for the entire afternoon and felt wronged on his behalf.
He did not know what spell Princess Ling Hui had casted on the Young Master. He had never been patient with women, but had actually waited here for an entire afternoon?
Besides, because he was afraid of disturbing the other party, he had only called once and sent a message.
If Princess Ling Hui did not come down, wouldn’t he have to wait endlessly?
“Young Master, you haven’t eaten anything for lunch. Do you want me to buy some food for you?”
Tang Xi played with the lighter in his hand. His eyes were lowered and there was no other emotion. “Wait a while more. If she doesn’t come down, I’ll go up and pull her out.”
The moment Tang Xi finished speaking, the elevator door opened.
Ling Hui walked out with her luggage behind her.
She was wearing red collared blouse with matching gold b.u.t.tons and embroidery. The bright color made her skin look even more delicate. Her brown curly hair fell over her shoulders and her fiery red lips made her look even more beautiful and charming.
She was wearing a pair of tight black jeans with the blouse tucked into the waist of her pants. Her waist was slender, her b.u.t.tocks were perky, and her legs were slender and straight. Although she was completely covered in this outfit, she exuded a strong and s.e.xy feminine aura from head to toe.
Tang Xi realized that whatever she wore was seductive in his eyes.
He really wanted to strip her clean.
Tang Xi’s bright eyes were smiling as he instructed Fang Ye, “Bring the Princess’ luggage to the car.”
After Fang Ye placed Ling Hui’s luggage in the car, he got into the car and locked the door.
Ling Hui pulled the car door but could not open it. She turned back to look at Tang Xi and found that he had disappeared.
