Chapter 908: What’s the Story Behind This Dangling Earring?
Wen Xinya took out a small, exquisite box that contained four gold cuff links that were resplendent and elegant. There was a golden dragon embossed on the round b.u.t.ton which Wen Xinya was stroking. Upon feeling a string of small alphabets, she took a closer look to see that “Rexi” was written in cursive. Rexi was the combination of hers and Si Yiyan’s name!
Si Yiya did not notice anything different about her and instead placed the cuff link on his sleeve.
Wen Xinya noticed that the cuff link was placed on the second b.u.t.ton of his sleeve and her heart skipped a beat. Legend had it… that it was the position that was closest to a man’s heart.
Those cuff links were obviously custom made. In that case, Si Yiyan had already begun doing that a long time ago.
Yet, she did not discover it at all.
How much does Si Yiyan actually value me?
Wen Xinya scanned Si Yiyan from head to toe before bursting into laughter. “Okay, you look very perfect. You’re definitely going to be the most outstanding man at the banquet tonight.”
Si Yiyan would become the most eye-catching view wherever he went.
Si Yiyan smiled and took out two masks from a box. “We must put these on to be considered perfect!”
“You’re so full of tricks!” Wen Xinya burst into laughter. The masks were a pair of dragon and phoenix masks that Si Yiyan and she wore to the auction in Nantong.
“My woman is so gorgeous. If you don’t cover your face, I would be at a loss if other men ogle at you.” Si Yiyan put the mask on for Wen Xinya, though he still felt that something was missing.
Wen Xinya glared at him and remarked, “Loquacious!”
Lucifer and the Xiasi Group had always been mysterious to others, especially the leader, whom almost no one knew. Wen Xinya was sure that it was because of how secretive Si Yiyan was.
Si Yiyan gestured and pulled Wen Xinya into the dressing room!
Extremely bewildered, Wen Xinya asked, “What are you doing? We’re really going to be late if we continue dilly-dallying.”
Si Yiyan found a crystal box in a pile of cosmetic products, in which there were some cream and liquid products. Si Yiyan picked up a brush, dipped it into some product and began putting some makeup on her forehead.
Wen Xinya’s eyes were blocked by his hand and all she could feel was a cooling sensation on her forehead and a faint fragrance that wafted up to her nose.
Si Yiyan was done with the makeup on her forehead soon enough!
Wen Xinya stared at the vibrant makeup which glowed like a metal. Si Yiyan had drawn a resplendent phoenix that had its wings spread open. It was opulent and posh.
Extremely pleased with his masterpiece, Si Yiyan said, “Okay, now you’re perfect.”
It was the first time that Wen Xinya had ever seen such an eye-catching forehead makeup, though she found it to be surprisingly beautiful. “Si Yiyan, you can be my personal makeup artist.”
Si Yiyan was the one who came up with the design of her makeup for the Poise Magazine photoshoot.
Gazing at her smilingly, Si Yiyan said, “How much are you willing to pay to hire me as your personal makeup artist?”
Wen Xinya could not help but feel awkward as she began to think about some erotic images.
Noticing how much she was blus.h.i.+ng, Si Yiyan knew that she must have been thinking about the rated stuff. He wiggled his finger in front of her and said, “You can’t pay me with your body. You already owe me a lot. I’m afraid you won’t be able to return everything.”
Wen Xinya glared at him, finding him to be extremely evil. “Forget it, then. You’re too haughty and I can’t afford to hire you.”
Si Yiyan said, “Heartless la.s.s. I serve you in and out of bed all day and yet you still said that about me. Why didn’t you say those words when you were using me?”
His ambiguous words made Wen Xinya turned warm, though she tried to convince herself that it was because of her heavy clothes. She frantically sprung up from the chair and pulled Si Yiyan away in a bid to leave. “It’s already 6:25 now, we’ve been late for half an hour.”
Holding her hand, Si Yiyan exclaimed, “Wait a minute!”
Wen Xinya said resignedly, “Be good and cut it out. Now’s not the time to be willful.”
Si Yiyan leaned in and whispered into her ear, “Where are the dangling earrings that I bought you? Did you bring them along with you?”
Wen Xinya previously had the habit of wearing that pair of earrings wherever she went. However, she decided to stop wearing them so frequently ever since she got kidnapped, for she was afraid that she would lose them, just like how she almost lost the earrings that Xu Zhenyu gave her.
Wen Xinya nodded and answered, “I did!”
“How obedient!” Si Yiyan kissed her forehead and took out a small purple box from the makeup trunk, in which there was that pair of earrings.
Wen Xinya asked curiously, “Do you want me to wear this pair of earrings to the banquet? There’s only one side, though!”
She would look rather unkempt and shoddy if she were to wear an incomplete set of earrings to the formal event.
Si Yiyan exclaimed, “Just put on one side, then!”
Si Yiyan removed the black and gold agate earrings from her ears and placed the dangling earring on her right earlobe.
Wen Xinya finally noticed that Si Yiyan was wearing a similar one on his left year that was polished and exquisite. The design was simple, yet intricate and beautiful.
Reminded of the words that Si Yiyan said to her when he gave her the pair of earrings, she asked, “Is there a significance behind this earring?”
Si Yiyan fiddled with her earrings gently and said, “This is a token of proof that belongs to the lady-in-charge of Lucifer. The fallen angel Lucifer became the devil’s follower and yet, it was also labeled as the son of brightness. It is the pride of the seven sins and evil.”
Wen Xinya suddenly felt the temperature of her ear rising. It turns out, the earring was a token belonging to the lady-in-charge of Lucifer. In that case… it meant that she had been wearing the token and showing it off to everyone three years ago. In a way, she had already been marked by him and had become his belonging! Ah, I can’t just put on jewelry hastily!
Noticing her uneasiness, Si Yiyan guffawed and continued, “So… from the moment that you put it on, you had already become the future lady of Lucifer and my fiancée, as well as the mother of my future child!”
Back then, he did not expect that Wen Xinya would fancy the earring so much.
Fuming with anger, Wen Xinya clenched her fists and punched Si Yiyan’s chest. “Si Yiyan, you’re so evil and sly. You’re annoying. You actually hid it from me all this while, causing me to…”
She had allowed Si Yiyan to label her as his, a long time ago.
Si Yiyan held her fist and said, “Okay, okay, don’t get angry. It’s only a matter of time. It doesn’t matter when you put it on.”
Si Yiyan smirked and remained silent.
Wen Xinya punched him again and chided. “You’re so irritating…”
