Chapter 1704: Xiao Ying Is Jealous
Xiao Ying looked at the young girl who was leaving hurriedly and she walked in front of Long Ming. “The lady boss invited you to Mei Pavilion to dance and even told you about that night. Tsk tsk, Long Ming, did you bring me and Wan Bao here for a vacation to meet your old lover?”
The moment Xiao Ying finished speaking, Long Ming grabbed her slender wrist and pulled her over.
Her back was pressed against the railing and he grabbed her waist, lifting her up to the railing.
Although they were on the second floor and it wasn’t too high, Xiao Ying was still surprised by the sudden movement.
Her hands that were about to push him away curled around his s.h.i.+rt as she glared at him with furrowed eyebrows. “What are you doing?”
“If I don’t do this, would you talk to me properly?”
Xiao Ying did not have much patience. “You make me sound like a resentful woman.”
Long Ming raised his eyebrows. “Aren’t you jealous when you hear other women inviting me to dance?”
“What’s there to be jealous about?” Even if that lady boss had something with Long Ming, it was all in the past. She had a past too. She was not a hypocrite.
Seeing Xiao Ying being so generous, Long Ming was a little unhappy. His well-defined handsome face darkened. “You’re right. There’s no need to care about the past.”
Hearing his tone, Xiao Ying narrowed her eyes. “Do you really have a past with that lady boss?”
Long Ming pursed his lips, not saying anything.
A smile appeared on Xiao Ying’s lips, her eyes bright. “Your love history is more rich than I thought!”
Long Ming opened his mouth, wanting to say something when a childish voice came from the washroom. “Mommy, Mommy, I’m done.”
Long Ming had no choice but to let go of Xiao Ying. Xiao Ying did not look at him as she rushed toward the washroom.
Long Ming stared at Xiao Ying’s back, his eyes narrowed slightly.
It was not that she did not care or was jealous.
Then, why did she look a little unhappy?
…
Xiao Ying reminded herself not to be jealous. After all, who didn’t have a past?
But he had not denied having a past with that lady boss of his, which still made her feel a little bitter and uncomfortable.
Actually, the past didn’t mean much. The most important thing was that he had the cheek to bring her and Wan Bao here for a vacation and even let the lady boss’s staff receive them.
How generous did he think she was? Or was he taking the chance to visit his old lover?
“Mommy, I’ve already washed my hands. Why are you still holding my hands?”
It was only then that Xiao Ying realized that she had been holding Wan Bao’s hand under the tap for quite a while.
“I’m sorry, baby.”
“Mommy, why are you unhappy? Did Cool Uncle make you angry?” Wan Bao frowned. She did not understand what was going on. When Mommy was with Papa Tang En in the past, she had never been angry. But in front of Cool Uncle, Mommy was always angry.
Xiao Ying looked up at herself in the mirror. Seeing that she was really angry, she froze.
What had happened to her recently? Long Ming’s every action could affect her emotions.
Although she had agreed to be with him, she still had some reservations in her heart. She wanted to be an independent and strong woman. If there came a day when he was unwilling to be with her, she could still leave proudly.
But now, she could not stand hearing that he had a past with another woman.
However, she wanted to see what a woman who had a past with Long Ming looked like.
When Xiao Ying came out with Wan Bao, Long Ming had already instructed the butler to prepare dinner.
After dinner, Long Ming offered to go for a walk on the beach, and Xiao Ying did not refuse.
After playing at the beach, Wan Bao was a little tired. After returning to the villa, Xiao Ying took a bath and told her a story before she fell asleep.
When Xiao Ying came out of Wan Bao’s room, she heard Long Ming talking on the phone downstairs.
He only said ‘no’ before hanging up.
Xiao Ying instructed the nanny to take care of Wan Bao. She went to her room to change, put on makeup, and went downstairs.
Hearing footsteps, Long Ming looked upstairs.
Xiao Ying walked over slowly, a long red dress cascading down her body like water. Her slender figure was like a fairy’s, the bright colors making her skin look even fairer.
She had makeup on her face and her eyes were as exquisite and charming as a painting. Her long hair was gathered on one shoulder, revealing one side of her fair ears.
Seeing Xiao Ying like this, Long Ming froze for a few seconds.
Xiao Ying walked in front of Long Ming, her fair hand holding his arm as a charming smile appeared on her charming face. “Let’s go.”
The moment she approached him, he could smell the faint fragrance on her. His gaze on her darkened. “Where are we going?”
Xiao Ying lifted her chin, her red lips close to his ear. “Of course I’m going to your old lover’s place to dance!”
Long Ming hugged Xiao Ying’s slender waist, his fingers tightening slowly. “What’s there to see? She doesn’t dance as well as you.”
“I’m just going to take a look.” Xiao Ying smiled, but her eyes were cold. She took Long Ming’s hand away from her waist and took a few steps forward. “If you’re not going, I’m going.”
Xiao Ying walked toward the entrance of the villa.
Staring at her back, Long Ming could not help but smile.
Who was the one who had said that she did not care about his past or whom he had been in a relations.h.i.+p with?
Almost all of the guests in Mei Pavilion were male. Although she was not a weak woman, what if other men took advantage of her when she was dressed so beautifully?
Xiao Ying walked to the door of the villa and heard the man’s steady and strong footsteps behind her.
Just as she had expected, he had followed her.
Long Ming wrapped his arm around Xiao Ying’s slender waist. “I’ll take you there.”
…
Mei Pavilion.
The interior was decorated in an antique style and was divided into two floors. The stage was filled with smoke and dancing, giving people the feeling that it was a land of fireworks.
The receptionist at the door saw Long Ming and invited him to the VIP room on the second floor enthusiastically. “Mr Long, our lady boss reserved the best room for you.”
Long Ming did not say anything, but Xiao Ying, who was beside him, said with a smile, “Thank your lady boss. That’s very thoughtful.”
The staff member glanced at Xiao Ying. The lights were dim and he couldn’t see her clearly, but the two of them were very close to each other. The staff member was stunned for a few seconds.
This girl was too pretty!
Apart from the lady boss, she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen!
Xiao Ying blinked at the receptionist. Her fox-like eyes were moist and charming, almost able to steal a person’s soul away.
There was a sudden pain in his thin shoulder. Xiao Ying looked up and met Long Ming’s deep and cold eyes. “I’m just here to see my old lover. Don’t be agitated!”
