Chapter 875 - Misfortune
"But then again, Shuhua"s daughter is really pretty. If she doesn"t marry a rich man to support her in the future, it would be such a pity."
Xia Shuhua immediately smiled proudly, "That"s true! I"m only going to play mahjong now, in the future! I"m counting on this son-in-law. "
As the saying goes, money cannot be revealed, and bragging also had to pay the price.
When Xia Shuhua was talking happily, the three men at the table beside them who were playing cards immediately looked at each other. They were the people who often worked as villains in the mahjong hall, and at the same time, had a greater background than the others, which was pulling the rich and powerful people to the casinos to play big games. But at this moment, Xia Shuhua"s words made them immediately include her as a target.
Xia An returned to Gong Yuze"s villa. At this moment, she was playing with Little Ke on the gra.s.s playing with Flying b.u.t.terfly, while Gong Yuze sat on the sofa under a huge umbrella. There was a laptop on the table, working.
As Gong Yuze wrote the email, he looked at the girls and his beloved pets beside him. He also looked at their figures that were playing around.
Sure enough, the addition of a girl seemed to have gained a lot of vitality and vigor.
Xia An"s clear and melodious laughter sounded out from time to time, and accompanying Little Ke"s excited cry was a scenery in the middle of the evening gra.s.s.
At six in the evening, Gong Yuze"s chef punctually came over and prepared dinner for them. Gong Yuze put down the work in his hands, and walked towards the center of the gra.s.s with his long legs.
There was a soft cus.h.i.+on on the ground. Xia An didn"t notice Gong Yuze had come, she had pulled a small wildflower from the side and placed it beside Xiao Ke"s ears. She imagined Xiao Ke to be a girl, and felt a little cute.
She raised her head and saw Gong Yuze approaching. She immediately panicked a little and quickly threw away the little flower beside Little Ke"s ear.
Gong Yuze saw it, but he did not say anything. He just sat on the blanket by the side and laid down with his hands behind his back, looking at the blue sky. It was also a kind of enjoyment for him.
The blanket was big enough, with Xiao Ke in the middle. Xia An raised his head to look at the blue sky, which was still clear and floating with white clouds. She also laid down, and her entire field of vision widened.
Xia Ran was also in a daze as he counted the clouds in the sky. He imagined what those clouds looked like and was checking the speed at which they were drifting.
Between them was a small coca. At this moment, Little Ke was attracted by something and got up. As it ran away, there was nothing in between. Xia An couldn"t help but turn his head, while the man also turned his head.
Two pairs of eyes lay there, separated by half an arm. Their gazes met each other, clear and clean, reflecting the other"s face. The atmosphere was dull for a few seconds.
She quickly turned her head away and sat up. At this moment, Little Ke suddenly rushed over from the side in excitement. When Xia An was pounced on by such a large dog, the consequence was naturally falling backwards.
When her head rested on the man"s st.u.r.dy chest, she was shocked. She actually fell into Gong Yuze"s embrace.
At this moment, Xiao Ke continued to point his large head at her, as if he was intentionally bringing her into the arms of the male owner.
Gong Yuze"s body tensed up, he reached out and grabbed Xia An"s shoulder, then ordered Xiao Ke, "Xiao Ke, stop messing around."
Xia An wanted to sit up, but because he was half-lying in Gong Yuze"s embrace, he couldn"t get up for a while. At this moment, a strong and healthy arm supported her, and only then did she sit up straight and quickly move away.
Gong Yuze reached out and stroked Xiao Ke"s head, but did not blame it. Instead, there was a trace of a smile in his eyes.
Xia An"s long hair had just been thrown out of the blanket, and at this moment, a few strands of hay were stuck on the ends of her hair. She did not manage to check what was going on, and when Gong Yuze saw it, he naturally extended his hand out.
He gently reached out and took it away for her.
Dinner was as bountiful as ever. Every dish was meticulously cooked and served consecutively.
After dinner, the chefs finished packing up and left. The whole villa also quieted down, Xia An went to Gong Yuze"s study room to find a book to pa.s.s the time. Other than reading books, she didn"t have any other hobbies.
That night, Xia Ran had a bath and also washed her hair. After blowing it half dry, she let it fall to the ground and let it dry. She sat on the balcony to enjoy the wind, but she did not know that her room was actually connected to Gong Yuze"s balcony.
So she could see the balcony of his master bedroom.
Xia Ran looked at his room with its lights on. She didn"t know why, but she was curious as to what he was doing.
Just as he was thinking, a slender figure suddenly walked onto the balcony, and saw Gong Yuze coming out with a white bath towel wrapped around his waist. Under the warm light, he held onto a cup of red wine, and looked into the distance to taste the good wine.
Since Xia An had gone out to the balcony first and her balcony had not been lit, Gong Yuze did not know that she was on the balcony.
Xia An"s eyes slightly widened as he blankly stared at the man standing on the balcony. His upper body was bare, and only a towel was wrapped around his upper body. His charming face was completely red.
She quickly covered her mouth to prevent herself from making even the slightest sound. She was so fl.u.s.tered that she wanted to go back to her room.
She didn"t expect to see a gla.s.s table on the balcony. As she turned around, her knee hit the corner of the table, making a loud noise as if the table was about to be overturned.
Xia An didn"t care about the pain anymore and immediately hid in his room.
When Gong Yuze heard the sound next door, he also realized that Xia An was on the balcony just now. He lowered his head to look at the towel wrapped around his waist, and he thought that the previous time he hit her was definitely because she b.u.mped into something during her panic.
Gong Yuze squinted and walked back into the room.
Xia Ran sat on the edge of the bed. In the lamplight, she could clearly see the place where she had been hit. It was green and swollen, and there were traces of blood.
It was so painful that she gasped in pain. Heavens! Indeed, the consequences of being too impulsive often came at a price.
It hurt so much!
Xia An could only endure it, at the moment, she couldn"t disturb Gong Yuze, furthermore, she wasn"t a proud and arrogant girl, she had suffered these kinds of injuries before.
Therefore, she could still see the scars on her legs.
Xia An endured the pain as he sat on the bed, planning on going to sleep.
Suddenly, her door was knocked. She was shocked, so she went to open the door.
Opening the door, Gong Yuze carried his medicine box and stood at the entrance.
