Chapter 1985: Held Back The Happiness In His Heart
Xiao Yuqian took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and then walked into the water with both her feet. The water quickly went up to her knees. The further out she went, the deeper the water became.
By the time she was near the box, the water was already around her waist. It was so cold that her teeth kept on chattering.
When she was only a few steps away, Xiao Yuqian stretched her hands and tried her best to get the box. She finally grabbed it but she stepped into a puddle of silt and slipped, causing her to fall completely into the water.
The cold lake water immediately entered her nostrils and every one of her pores. It was so cold that she almost suffocated. Thankfully, Xiao Yuqian was familiar with being in the water. It was only after she struggled for a while that she could climb ash.o.r.e.
After she got up on land, a cold wind blew over and she started trembling from the cold. She hugged her shoulders, picked up her shoes, and quickly ran back to the villa.
She was completely soaked and water dripped off her body. Xiao Yuqian was afraid of dirtying the villa so she took off her wet clothes at the door. She wiped her feet clean before stepping in through the door.
The man in the house was currently sitting on the sofa. He was sulking while he played video games. He didn’t even turn his head to look when he heard the door open. Ma Haodong suppressed his desire and didn’t take the initiative to pay attention to her. He wanted to see if this woman would take the initiative to speak to him first.
However, she didn’t. Her light footsteps pa.s.sed behind him and he didn’t hear Xiao Yuqian stop or take the initiative to apologize.
It was only when the footsteps were about to disappear to the second floor that he couldn’t take it any longer. He turned to take a look and was shocked. Why was she only in her underwear? What was going on?
He turned to look at the door and there was a beam of light. Ma Haodong saw there was a trail of wet footsteps left behind on the ground that went all the way to the stairs.
He couldn’t help but feel curious as to what Xiao Yuqian had done just now.
Why was she barefoot and wet? Her clothes were even gone.
When Ma Haodong figured out what might’ve happened, his body quivered and he got off the sofa. He quickly ran to the door to take a look and saw there was a bundle of wet clothes on the floor. There was also a trail of wet footprints coming all the way from the lake.
Could it be that Xiao Yuqian went down to get the box he’d thrown away just now?
If she really did that, what did this show?
Ma Haodong held back the happiness in his heart. He closed the door, turned around, and ran upstairs.
He went to his room and the door wasn’t closed. He walked in and heard the sounds of running water from the bathroom. She was probably having a bath.
Ma Haodong immediately pushed the door open and went in. He saw the bathroom was filled with hot steam and a beautiful snow-white figure could vaguely be seen through the steam.
Xiao Yuqian heard sounds coming from the door and turned around. When she saw it was Ma Haodong standing at the door, she screamed in shock and anxiously protected her body.
“Ah!!! Hooligan! Quickly get out!”
Not only did Ma Haodong not leave, but he even enjoyed the view while both his hands were in his pockets. “Don’t be nervous. Which part of your body have I not seen before? Not only have I seen it, I’ve even touched it before.”
“Quickly get out! b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”
Xiao Yuqian saw him walking towards her and she felt a bit afraid. She had no choice but to turn her body around and cover herself. “Don’t come over! If you take one step closer I will shout for help!”
Ma Haodong smiled slightly. “Shout as much as you like! The soundproofing here is really good. I can guarantee that no one can hear you even if you shout until your throat bursts.”
Ma Haodong already came up behind her and he intentionally moved his body closer to her. Xiao Yuqian felt extremely awkward. She held her body tightly and didn’t dare to turn around. Her mouth kept on scolding, “Ma Haodong! If you dare to do anything, I will… I will…”
Although he moved close to her, he didn’t actually do anything to her. He only stretched out his hand to grab a bottle of skincare lotion on the cabinet in front of her. He then moved away and left.
“I only came to take something but you are already so frightened. Go ahead and continue bathing!”
