novelSay That Again If You Dare

Zhou Yao looked into the distance. With his head raised, he exhaled a thin cloud of smoke from his mouth. A cigarette was clasped in his left index finger, and he flicked the ash into the ashtray.
"Hah..." He gave a low laugh. He had said since the start that he did not expect her to surprise him. Now what was she trying to do by disappearing?
Her stunning little face appeared in his mind. She was so dumb that she could not even take care of herself, but it was strangely very cute. His lips lifted in an affectionate smile. Little rascal!
Wait till he finds her, see how he will deal with her?
This little lady, she was up to something the moment she left his sight.
Just then his phone rang with an incoming call.
"Hello..." He picked up.
"Hello, Major General, I have checked. There are no exit records of Sister-in-law in Hong Kong. I think that she must still be in Hong Kong. There are some matters going on with Leng Hao, Sister-in-law's eldest brother, so she returned to Hong Kong to visit him."
"Got it." Zhou Yao hung up.
He went back into the hotel room with a cigarette in his mouth. He put on a white shirt and took a drag from his cigarette, not caring if the ashes fell on his pants. It seemed that there was nothing unusual about her return to Hong Kong, but why was she refusing to see him for no reason?
What was the meaning of this?
...
When the doorbell at Leng Hao's villa rang, the servant hurried to open the door.
Outside the door stood a tall man with long legs. The servant had never seen such a tall man before, and he needed to tilt his head up to look at him."Sir, who are you looking for?"
Zhou Yao took a look into the living room."The young lady, Leng Zhiyuan."
"I'm sorry, sir. This is our young master's residence. The young lady has not been here recently." The servant closed the door.
Zhou Yao paused outside the closed door for awhile, then stepped backwards and looked up at the window on the second floor...
In the villa, Leng Zhiyuan opened her bedroom door. She looked down the stairs and asked, "Has he left?"
"Young Lady, he has left."
"Who did he say he was looking for?"
"The gentleman said your name, Young Lady."
A glint appeared in Leng Zhiyuan's eyes, and she turned around to go back to her room.
She could not stay here anymore. She went to the wardrobe and took a coat out, then changed her shoes.
Just then, there was a low and beautiful laugh behind her."Mrs. Zhou, where are you going in such a hurry?"
Leng Zhiyuan whipped around instantly, only to see Zhou Yao leaning against the wall with his hands on his hips. The window beside him was open. He had climbed in through the window.
Since they were already face to face, Leng Zhiyuan no longer wanted to leave. She turned around and hung her coat back in the wardrobe."Major General Zhou, isn't it very impolite for you to enter through someone's window?"𝐟𝘳𝘦𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯o𝐯e𝒍 - 🅽🅽novel
Zhou Yao came behind her, bent down, and said into her ear, "I did knock on the door... It was impolite for me to climb in through the window, but was it polite for you to lie to me?"
Leng Zhiyuan slipped away from his arms nimbly. She walked over to close the window and asked, "What can I do for you?"
The masculine scent that she dodged came at her again, and a big palm was placed on her slender waist."So I can't look for you for no reason?"
"Let go!" She struggled to break free.
Zhou Yao's palm moved, directly turning her body in his arms and ignoring her struggling."Mrs. Zhou, is there a need to beat around the bush when we talk?"
"Ok, Major General Zhou, what do you want to say?" She looked up at him.
"Why are you refusing to see me?"
"Why should I see you?"
Zhou Yao pressed his thin lips together and stared at her, looking into her cold, beautiful grey eyes that did not contain a single trace of warmth.
Leng Zhiyuan did not avoid his gaze at all."Major General Zhou, let me remind you that we have this three-month fake marriage in order to fool people. When I was in T City, your grandfather was watching, so we had no choice but to stay together. Now, something has happened to my Elder Brother and I have successfully returned to Hong Kong. Since I have already returned to Hong Kong, my father will definitely be reluctant to do anything about me. At this time, I can totally find a random reason to go abroad for a task. No one can control me.
"As for you, Major General Zhou, is there any need for us to keep in touch with each other in private besides pretending to be loving in front of outsiders? Shouldn't we just part our ways and become strangers as soon as the agreement is over?"
Zhou Yao's eyes gradually filled with a little anger. He never knew that she could be so eloquent.
With a frown, he suppressed his temper."I came to Hong Kong a few days ago for some private matters. Are you angry because of this?" he asked in a low voice.
He could not think of any reason for her to act this way, except for this.
"Oh, is it convenient for Major General to tell me what personal matters you have in Hong Kong?" she asked him with interest.
Zhou Yao stiffened.
"Can't say it, right? Oh, don't take it seriously, Major General Zhou. I'm just randomly asking. I have never been interested in prying into other people's privacy. Please let go of me. I have already told you my plan, and I hope that you can cooperate with me. You are on the mainland while I am in Hong Kong, and three months will pass peacefully for both of us."
"Are you serious?" Zhou Yao pressed her shoulder firmly."You don't want to go back with me, and you want to part ways here?"
"Yes." Leng Zhiyuan nodded.
Her words were invulnerable. What they had between them was a deal in the first place, so since she was in Hong Kong, she would naturally no longer be bound and would not need to deal with him anymore.
But they were not like this before...
Although he had not figured out what to do with her in the future, their ending should not be like this.
He looked down at the carpet under his feet, then raised his eyes, caressed her face with his left hand, and whispered, "Alright, don't be angry. The Old Man is not so easy to deal with. You go back with me..."
"Impossible!" She interrupted him.
"Mrs. Zhou..."
"Take care; please see yourself out."
"Leng Zhiyuan, if you dare to give me such an attitude again, I will not wait upon you anymore!" He exploded at last and glared at her fiercely.
Leng Zhiyuan took a look at him."Let go!" She pushed him away and left."Little bastard!" He grabbed her pale wrist and held her face in his hand. He leaned over and went directly for her lips.
Slap! Leng Zhiyuan raised her hand and slapped him.
Zhou Yao was hit in the face.
"I should have given you this slap a long time ago. Don't touch me with your dirty hands. I feel disgusted!"
Zhou Yao had never been slapped by anyone before. Although Old Master Zhou beat him, that was using a whip. In his heart, Old Master Zhou doted on his only grandson.
She even said... disgusted...
He turned his face and stared at her, saying, "Say that again if you dare!"
"I said, this slap should have been given to you a long time ago. Don't use your dirty hands..."
"Damn it!" Zhou Yao extended his leg and directly kicked the chair beside him. The wooden chair was smashed into pieces instantly. He strode out with his long legs.
The door of the room was slammed shut with an ear-splitting boom!
The servants downstairs did not know what was going on when they heard the loud noise from the room. Just then, they saw a man coming out of their Young Lady's room all of a sudden. Most shockingly, this was clearly the man who had been refused at the door."You, you..."
Before the words could come out, a strong gust of wind blew, and the man had disappeared out the door.
