C134 Enjoy Your Boudoir (1/2)
After sending Qiao Jinglian off, Xu Qiu leaned on the door as if he lost half his life, and exhaled two long breaths while clutching his heart.
It seemed like lying wasn't something an ordinary person could do!
Xu Qiu gently shook his head, he looked at the exquisite box in his hands, his eyes flashed and opened.
Inside the box was a needle that had reverted to the past. It wasn't in exaggerated shapes and colors, but was simple and elegant. Even the crystals embedded in the petals of the magnolia were cream colored.
As his fingertips caressed the petals, Xu Qiu could not help but sigh in his heart.
Although he gave her the gift casually, he did spend a lot of effort on it. At the very least, she knew that she wouldn't be able to buy the exact same gift in the market.
Xu Qiu frowned, he closed the gift box and was about to go into the kitchen to help Aunt Wu.
However, just as he took two steps forward, the door behind him opened.
Xu Qiu was startled and turned to look.
coincidentally, her gaze met with Ye Xi who was standing outside.
”Mom …” Ye Xi was startled for a second, then he jumped in happily and grabbed her arm: ”Mom, did you hear the sound of the door being opened, and came out to welcome me?”
”You still need to welcome me at home? Are you a guest?” Xu Qiu looked at her in annoyance, and said to Huo Yaoting who was standing at the doorway: ”Yaoting, why aren't you coming in?”
Huo Yaoting smiled lightly and walked in, closing the door at the same time.
Xu Qiu frowned, he looked at the door thoughtfully, then turned and looked at Ye Xi who was rubbing her arm like a puppy, and asked softly, ”Xiao Xi, when you came up, did you meet anyone?”
”Yes.” Ye Xi nodded.
What?
Xu Qiu was shocked, she subconsciously glanced at Huo Yaoting, seeing that he was sitting on the sofa without a single change in expression, she frowned and asked Ye Xi, ”You, the person you met, is, is …”
”Neighbouring Uncle Zhang's family members met each other when they were entering the elevator for dinner.” Ye Xi raised his head and looked at her, his small eyebrows knitted together, asking suspiciously, ”Mom, why did you suddenly ask this?”
As Ye Xi was asking, Huo Yaoting also looked over.
Her eyes remained calm, causing Xu Qiu to become inexplicably nervous.
Xu Qiu's expression was rather unnatural, as she subconsciously reached out to crook her hair, ”N-nothing.”
Huo Yaoting stared at her hair curling movements, his long brows slightly raised.
Ye Xi saw and blinked his eyes. He felt that her actions were a little familiar.
”Xiao Xi, accompany Yaoting for a while. There's still some fish left, it'll be ready for dinner later.” Xu Qiu said unnaturally, then rushed back to the bedroom.
Ye Xi stared at Xu Qiu's back, his eyes turning.
He then moved to Huo Yaoting's side and blinked his eyes, ”Hubby, did you see that?”
”See what?” Huo Yaoting grabbed her hand.
”This is it.” Ye Xi hooked his ear with his other hand.
Huo Yaoting watched as she did this in all seriousness, and nodded, ”I saw it, what's the matter?”
”…” Ye Xi pursed his lips, leaned close to his ear and whispered, ”My mother is the same as me, she hooks up her hair whenever she lies, it's probably inherited.”
Huo Yaoting lifted his lips and laughed soundlessly. When she raised her head, his palm grabbed onto her small neck and fiercely kissed her lips.
”Ah …” Ye Xi screamed in fear, she covered her mouth and turned to look at the kitchen.
Seeing that Xu Qiu and Aunt Wu were busy cooking, they did not notice him.
Only then did he heave a sigh of relief.
Ye Zichen turned around and poked his arm in embarrassment.
Huo Yaoting stretched out his hand to hook her.
Ye Xi took a deep breath and crawled to the other side of the sofa.
Huo Yaoting caressed her long hair and muttered, ”Where is your room?”
”...” ”What?” Ye Xi opened her eyes wide and looked at him adorably.
Huo Yaoting wanted to kiss her again, so he endured it. His voice turned hoarse as he said, ”Let's go, take your husband to admire your room.”
