When Feng Xinying sat on the chair with the help of Xie Yuansheng, she was aware of how aroused he was. She was smiling internally. When she saw him rus.h.i.+ng away, she knew what was the reason.
"What happened Miss Xinying?" asked Lu Boyun while serving her rice.
She shook her head and said, "Just a small sprain Lu Boyun. Xie Yuansheng helped me."
"Oh! Should I call a doctor?"
"No! I will be fine soon. I will have my meal and go up to take some rest."
"Okay. You should eat well Young Miss. Right now you are eating for two people," said Lu Boyun as he served her with lamb chops.
"Hmm…" she replied as she took a bite of the chops. "These are really good. Did you make them?" she asked.
"No, the Young Master made them."
Feng Xinying nodded. She was surprised at Xie Yuansheng"s cooking skills. He had really learnt so much. But if he could remember his cooking skills, why couldn"t he remember her? She sighed. She remembered that the doctor had given her some tasks for him. She had to make him do those things. While having her lunch she noticed that Xie Yuansheng didn"t come at all. She finished it and thinking that he won"t come, stood from the chair without limping.
She must have walked two steps when she saw Xie Yuansheng coming out, walking towards her. Immediately she caught the chair and turned the feet inside. "Ouch!" she said lightly with a painful voice.
Xie Yuansheng rushed to her again. He held her hands and then put them on his shoulder. As he did that her bosom rose a little and once again he endured the sight while taking her upstairs back to her bedroom. He settled her there and left the room in a rush.
For the next two days, he avoided her as much as he could. Feng Xinying would find a way to get him to her, but he would send some other servant her way. It was like he was just coming in her hands. She was getting agitated. She had scolded almost all the servants that came near her. She didn"t go to the office and would ask Cai Xin to come home with important doc.u.ments. All the meetings were postponed.
On the third day Keira had come over and Feng Xinying was talking about her woes to her as to how Xie Yuansheng was avoiding her.
"Hmm… May I suggest you one thing, Feng Xinying?" said Keira as though thinking very deeply.
"Yes please. I have run out of all ideas," said Feng Xinying with a sigh.
"So I was in a bookstore recently and I looked at this book called Hinari"s book on "How to Seduce Men". I think it is available online too. Why don"t you try one of its tactics?" suggested Keira with a glint in her eyes.
Feng Xinying became interested. This was indeed interesting. Keira went on to suggest her the plan. When she finished there was a huge smile on Feng Xinying"s face. She could pull that easily but for that she needed a situation. She kept thinking of ways when there was a soft knock on the door and Cai Xin entered with her usual doc.u.ments that needed to be signed. Keira hadn"t realized that she had spent more than two hours with Feng Xinying. She excused herself saying that she had to go back home, as she was expecting her parents to come for dinner. She hugged Feng Xinying, patted her tummy with affection and left.
Cai Xin smiled at Feng Xinying as she walked to her with doc.u.ments in hands. "How are you feeling today?" she asked as she kept them on the table and picked up to bring them to her for reading and signing.
"Ah! Cai Xin, I am feeling fine. Do you see any bulge in my tummy?" asked Feng Xinying, inspecting the waist.
"No, Madam," chuckled Cai Xin. "The bulge appears after five months but your waistline has increased."
"Ah, well!" Feng Xinying opened the doc.u.ment given to her and started reading it. By the end of it, she was exhausted.
Cai Xin went to collect all the doc.u.ments and while picking them up she said, "Miss Xinying, you are invited for an important party at the Minister of Education"s house. They are asking for donations for orphanages that are run by the government."
"When is the party?" asked Feng Xinying as she covered herself with the blanket.
"It is tonight. The invite is for the spouse too," answered Cai Xin with a smile.
Feng Xinying"s eyes became wide. Suddenly a thought came to her. This was her chance to act on the love guru Hinari"s suggestions. A grin appeared on her face and she said, "Okay Cai Xin, thanks for the information."
Cai Xin left.
Feng Xinying came out of the bedroom. She headed straight to the kitchen where she though Xie Yuansheng would be however, he wasn"t there. In fact, there was no one there. She went towards his room and there he found her sitting alone looking at the task that was given to him by the doctor. Those were some simple math problems that he was able to do and by doing them he was able to divert his attention from his employer effectively. He cleavage was haunting his dreams day and night.
So when Feng Xinying entered his room, he was surprised and sat up straight on his bed. "Good evening Miss," he said.
"Good evening Shengu," she replied and sat on the only chair that was in the room even though she was tempted to sit right next to him. "Do you remember the clauses of the contract that you signed?"
"I remember most of them."
"Then tell me what is Point No 10?" she asked crossing her arms across her chest with a faint smile on her lips.
Xie Yuansheng looked at her with misery and replied in a shaky voice, "I have to act as your husband in front of outsiders."
