Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The surrounding was quiet. The reflection of the trees fell on the windowsill through the bright and clear moon and the sound of the wind could be heard, whoos.h.!.+
Zuo Weiyi stood in the middle of the staircase. Suddenly, she felt the cold attack and sneezed.
Such a big house and he was staying here alone?
She advanced her steps down.
“What are you doing?”
She heard a voice behind her just as she was about to take on the next step. The sudden voice startled her and she lost her balance. She slid down the staircase.
“Ah!”
She cried out in alarm and thought she would fall flat on her face but at the critical moment, a hand wrapped around her waist. She felt herself swirling in the air and when she regained her senses, she was standing intact at the bottom of the staircase.
She widened her eyes and saw the man’s handsome face.
“Why? Did I scare you?” Seeing fear in her eyes, the man’s voice turned gentle and his eyes were filled with fondness and mystery.
Zuo Weiyi felt his breath and lowered her head. She took a step back and answered, “Yes.”
“It’s late. Why are you still down here?”
“I’m thirsty and I’m trying to get some water.”
“Come here.”
He tugged her hand and walked towards the kitchen.
The refrigerator was opened and in there lay various premium beverages and milk. “What would you like to have?”
Zuo Weiyi saw the items in the refrigerator and pursed her lips. “Plain water will do.”
The man smiled. “Same as me.”
He stretched out his hand and grabbed a jug of cool water from the refrigerator. He pa.s.sed the jug of water to Zuo Weiyi. “Help yourself.”
Then, he turned and left the kitchen.
Glancing at the man’s tall figure from behind, Zuo Weiyi waited for him to be out of sight before she turned around to look about in the kitchen. She found a few mugs on the shelf by the side.
Everything in this house was high-end and luxurious. Even the mugs were made of crystal gla.s.s.
After drinking, she looked at the sparkling and crystal-clear mug. She was afraid to dirty it and so, she washed it and put it back. Then, she turned and went up to the second floor.
She went into the master bedroom and was about to lie on the bed out of habit when she heard the sound of water from the attached bathroom.
She was shocked and very quickly remained quiet.
Wasn’t only s.h.i.+ Yuting in this house besides her?
The thought of this made her nervous. Her chest rose and fell in an unstable manner and she was not sure if she should stare at the bathroom.
After about twenty minutes, the door of the bathroom opened.
Zuo Weiyi sat by the bed. When she heard noises, she was so shocked that she stood up.
The man was wrapped in a bath robe and he sensed her shock.
His ivory pectoral muscles were exposed. Zuo Weiyi stole a glance and her cheeks burned, so she lowered her head and looked down.
Then, she raised her head and looked at the man.
She knew that the price she had to pay for the revenge she wanted was to become this man’s woman and what she had to do now was to serve him well.
Zuo Weiyi pursed her pink lips slightly and walked over to him.
She lifted and moved her trembling hands closer to the man’s waist bit by bit.
She was 168 cm tall but standing beside this man, she was a head shorter than him.
