"I thought because you rarely cook, so you don't want to do it for your sister, but who knows that your sister is not as great as your wife. I shouldn't have helped you collect your love letter when we were young. You really don't appreciate me and are biased!"
Xian Guiying's face was sour, her lips were pursed as she poked Xian Zihao's waist purposely."Biased! Biased! Biased! I'm going to stay in a hotel! I don't want to live under the same roof with a selfish man like you. I'm going to the hotel tonight!"
"Alright, stop messing around." Xian Zihao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He grabbed Xian Guiying's hand that was poking at his waist and gestured to Jiang Ruolan to drag her out of the kitchen.
"Guiying, come here." Jiang Ruolan went in and pulled her out.
Xian Guiying left the kitchen with a sour face and sat down on the sofa with her legs crossed and picked up the newspaper with a face full of jealousy.
She glanced at the financial page with Qin Gengxin's picture on it and her face froze for a second, then looked at the report. It was about the purchase of the major companies by the Chinese multinational companies. After reading it, she put it down without any change in her expression, and the jealousy in her eyes immediately disappeared.
Jiang Ruolan had been in the media industry for more than two years, so she was able to observe the situation quite accurately. Seeing the change in Xian Guiying's mood, she immediately went to the kitchen to cut some fruits and sat beside her.
Xian Guiying took a piece of it and took a bite. She actually seemed to like it a lot. She ate another piece before turning back to look at Jiang Ruolan. Her eyes were very calm as she said in a voice that only she (Jiang Ruolan) could hear, "Does my brother know?"
Jiang Ruolan understood that Xian Guiying was referring to the matter of her pregnancy. With a faint smile, she shook her head."Do you think I'm the kind of person who talks too much?"
Xian Guiying raised her shoulder disapprovingly and snorted. She then asked, "Oh right, sister-in-law, did Qin Group take over your company?"
"Yes, they did. However, this is a matter between the Qin Group. How do you know about it so much?"
Xian Guiying smiled but didn't reply to her question.
That night, under Xian Zihao's strict order, Xian Guiying couldn't go to the hotel as she wished.
Before going to bed, Xian Guiying, who was wearing Jiang Ruolan's pajamas, inadvertently said, "Brother, your house's soundproofing should be pretty good, right?"
Jiang Ruolan was momentarily taken aback. She didn't quite understand what kind of question she was referring to. Xian Zihao shot a meaningful glance at Xian Guiying, "Did you really think I would let you hear?"
Xian Guiying shrugged her shoulders and sighed."Who knows? Although I really want to see my nephew earlier, I really don't want to hear those strange sounds that would disturb my sweet dreams."
Jiang Ruolan's face instantly flushed, and she wished she could find a hole to hide. On the other hand, Xian Zihao looked at Xian Guiying with a smile that was not a smile."Do you want me to arrange for Cui Liuxian to accompany you in Boston?"
Xian Guiying's face turned cold."If you plan not to have a little sister anymore, make her come near me and try it out!" With that, she walked into the guest bedroom with a dark expression and slammed the door loudly.
Sure enough, Cui Liuxian was Xian Guiying's weak point.
Xian Guiying had been mistreated because of her since she was young and it had left such a deep shadow in her heart.
Jiang Ruolan clicked her tongue in wonder. It was indeed one thing after another.
****
Jiang Ruolan had just fallen asleep when she heard Xian Zihao's cell phone vibrate. Even though she was recently addicted to sleeping, she was still able to sleep lightly. Furthermore, she had just fallen asleep and woke up instantly.
Jiang Ruolan was able to catch a glimpse of the contents of the text message on his phone.
"Zihao, see you tomorrow." Plus a very happy smiley face symbol.
She saw the sender's name, Zhou Shufen.
Tomorrow would be Old Man Xian's birthday. Senior Zhou and Zhou Shufen would attend too.
She really grasped the timing very well.
These words seemed simple, but it had a much deeper meaning. It was longing, like it was the kind of coquettish intimacy they had five years ago.
When Xian Zihao saw the text message, there was a moment of depression in his eyes, and as if he could feel Jiang Ruolan's gaze, he immediately turned to look at her.
Jiang Ruolan was momentarily absent-minded and forgot to pretend to be asleep.
"Why aren't you sleeping?" He nonchalantly put down his cell phone and leaned over to kiss her forehead.
Since she was caught peeping, Jiang Ruolan didn't pretend to be asleep. She got up, moved the pillow to one side, and lay down at an angle with her back to him."I'm going to sleep now. Zihao, see you tomorrow ~"
Zihao was silent for a while before he suddenly lifted the blanket on Jiang Ruolan without saying a word.
Jiang Ruolan was unwilling and kept pushing him, but it turned out that when a man really intended to use force, he was unbeatable.
Jiang Ruolan was unable to move after Xian Zihao pressed her body on the bed. She immediately glared at him."What are you trying to do?"
Xian Zihao's eyes were deep and dark, and he was staring at her intently. He then sighed."So sour that entire Greenville Residence is about to collapse."
Jiang Ruolan snorted. While he was distracted and had lowered his strength, she immediately lifted her foot and kicked him away.
In the end, Xian Zihao was kicked off the bed by her.
*BANG!*
Jiang Ruolan immediately regretted her action and quickly got up to see him.
Xian Zihao was lying on the floor and didn't move.
Could it be that her legs were too heavy and she kicked him hard?
After another two minutes, Jiang Ruolan couldn't sit still.
"Zihao."
"..."
"Zi--hao." She dragged out her voice.
"..."
"The floor is too cold. Hurry up and get on the bed!"
"It hurts."
"Ah? Where does it hurt?"
She really kicked him hard?
But where was the injury?
Jiang Ruolan hastily lifted the blanket and stretched out her legs to get off the bed. However, just as she stretched out one leg, Xian Zihao suddenly grabbed her ankle and pulled her along with the blanket.
She fell heavily on top of him. Before she could react, he had already flipped their body and pressed her down on the floor.
"You actually lied to me!"
Jiang Ruolan was so furious and tried to vent her anger, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get rid of him.
Xian Zihao forcefully pressed his lips on hers and gently stroking her body with his hand. He bit her lips and forced his tongue into her mouth.
As she gradually couldn't bear it any longer, Xian Zihao then bit onto her earlobes, softly sighing and laughing, "Idiot, are you that confident?"
