《Substitute Marriage: Loving My Sweet Little Wife》 Chapter 1 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Tong felt her head was heavy and her legs were light. Lying on the bed, she felt as if she was floating in the sea. Her body seemed to have fallen apart, and it was extremely sore. Where was she¡­ Ye Tong covered her head and sat up. The scene in front of her was something she had never seen before. Due to the poor lighting, she could vaguely see that the place in front of her was a hotel. Wait! Why was she in a hotel?! Ye Tong was shocked. Just as she was about to get up, she felt a sharp pain from her lower body. It was as if she had done some exercise last night. Ye Tong frowned and looked to the side. The next second, her expression changed. There was actually a man lying beside her! At this moment, this man was sleeping with his back facing her. The muscles on his back were clearly defined, which was quite interesting. Ye Tong shook her head. Now was not the time to look at the muscular handsome man. Instead, she should be thinking about why she was here! She vaguely remembered that she seemed to be on her way home, but in the end, she met Ye Yuechang¡­ Looking at the marks all over her body, Ye Tong¡¯s expression was so gloomy that it was as if water could drip out of it. She knew that Ye Yuechang did not like her, so Ye Tong had tried her best to reduce her presence at home but they actually did such a thing! Ye Tong¡¯s hands were tightly clenched together, and her nails dug deep into her flesh as if she didn¡¯t feel it. She took a deep breath and carefully moved her body, making sure that she wouldn¡¯t wake up the man beside her. Ye Tong could roughly guess why Ye Yuecheng did such a thing, but could she sacrifice Ye Tong¡¯s happiness just because she didn¡¯t want to marry Xie Heze?! Ye Tong did not want to resign. There was a hint of determination in her eyes. She wanted to ask Ye Yuecheng what she wanted to do! Looking at the clothes scattered by the bed, Ye Tong seemed to be able to imagine how intense the situation was last night¡­ Ye Tong carefully picked up her clothes from the ground and then put them on herself in a hurry. Then, she picked up her shoes and tiptoed outside. Before she left, her small face hesitated for a moment. Finally, she took out 200 yuan from her pocket and placed it by the bed. She wasn¡¯t sure how much the normal price was, but she felt that 200 yuan should be enough. After she successfully walked out, Ye Tong could finally heave a sigh of relief. Patting her chest, Ye Tong looked at the tightly shut door behind her. The emotions in her heart were a little complicated. She had never thought that she would lose her virginity in such a way. She also never thought that Ye Yuechang would actually do such a thing to her. It looked like the sisterhood really did not exist anymore¡­ Putting on her shoes, Ye Tong limped towards the elevator. Her scattered hair made her look a little disheveled. If not for the clothes that could cover the scars on her body, Ye Yuechang would attract everyone¡¯s attention the moment she left the room. Thirty minutes later, the man in the room woke up and subconsciously looked to his side. However, he discovered that the woman he had sex with last night had disappeared. Thinking of all the things that had happened last night, a smile appeared on his face. This was the first time he had such an interest in a woman. He had been drugged last night. When he came to the room, he found a woman lying on the bed. Even though he could not see the woman¡¯s face clearly, the feeling from last night still left a deep impression in his heart. Yet, who knew that this woman had actually disappeared? He slowly walked out of the bed. His muscular body displayed perfect proportions. But at this moment, his body was slightly stiff because he saw that there was actually 200 yuan beside the bed?! A trace of anger appeared in the man¡¯s eyes. Then, he picked up his phone that was on the ground and made a call. At the same time, he pulled open the thick curtains. The sunlight was somewhat dazzling. ¡°Find out who did the matter last night.. Also, what happened to the woman who appeared in my room last night?¡± Chapter 2 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio On the way back, Ye Tong¡¯s eyes were slightly red. It was unknown whether it was because she was sad or angry. After returning home, the main culprits of this matter, Ye Yuechang and her mother, Yan Haihan, still seemed to be fine. They were eating at home. As for her father, Ye Qingcang, he had obviously gone to work. ¡°Yo, Miss Ye, where did you go to fool around last night? You actually came back only now?¡± Yan Haihan said with a faint smile when she saw Ye Tong coming back. It made Ye Tong feel uncomfortable for a moment when that pair of her eyes sized up Ye Tong¡¯s body. It was as if Yan Haihan could see through her clothes and see how miserable she was. Ye Yuechang also smiled with an innocent look and said, ¡°Yeah, Sister, why did you only come back now? Where did you go to stay out all night?¡± ¡°You two!¡± Ye Tong gnashed her teeth and looked at the two of them, saying in a cold voice, ¡°Were you responsible for what happened last night?!¡± ¡°What evidence do you have to prove it?¡± Yan Haihan shook her head indifferently and said, ¡°I don¡¯t even know what you¡¯re talking about.¡± She still said she didn¡¯t know? Didn¡¯t Yan Haihan¡¯s words just now have a hint of self-disclosure? Ye Tong looked at the two women. They had beautiful faces, one was pure and the other was dignified. No one would believe that they would do such a thing. Ye Tong¡¯s eyes were bloodshot. She looked at the two women and said in a hoarse voice, ¡°I don¡¯t understand. What did I do wrong? Since I was young, I¡¯ve tried my best not to fight with you. Why do you still treat me like this?¡± Yan Haihan covered her mouth and laughed. ¡°Where do you get off saying that? Your father doesn¡¯t like you because of your short-lived mother. What does that have to do with us? Besides, even if you want to fight, your father might not care about you.¡± Ye Tong was at a loss for words. Yan Haihan was right. Her father really didn¡¯t like her. Ye Tong gritted her teeth and took a deep breath. It was better for her to forget it. She should just treat it as a one-night stand with a man. After all, that man¡¯s figure was not bad. It couldn¡¯t be said that she was at a disadvantage. It was already the twenty-first century, so she shouldn¡¯t care about this. Thinking of this, Ye Tong didn¡¯t want to pay attention to the two guys in front of her. She turned around and planned to return to her room. However, Yan Haihan behind her still didn¡¯t give up and said, ¡°Ye Tong, looking at your appearance, I think something shameful must have happened last night.¡± Ye Tong didn¡¯t want to talk about this matter anymore, but she didn¡¯t expect that the other party still wouldn¡¯t let go. For a moment, Ye Tong was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, instantly exploding in anger. ¡°Enough! I¡¯ve tolerated enough. You all know what happened last night. There¡¯s no need to be sarcastic here.¡± When Ye Tong said this, her tone paused. ¡°It¡¯s already the 21st century. It¡¯s even more common for this kind of thing to happen to young people. Do you think your daughter must be innocent?¡± ¡°You, little slut, what are you talking about?!¡± Yan Haihan¡¯s expression instantly changed, and she couldn¡¯t contain her anger as he looked at Ye Tong and cursed. Ye Tong¡¯s heart was somewhat desolate. Look, Yan Haihan also knew what this kind of thing meant. She protected her daughter, but why did she have to treat her like this. Ye Tong didn¡¯t want to say anything more. She turned around and was about to go upstairs, but at this time, she heard a sentence from behind her, causing Ye Tong¡¯s body to instantly tense up. ¡°I have your photo here!¡± Chapter 3 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Tong suddenly turned around, and the calm expression on her face disappeared. ¡°What do you mean?!¡± She was not a fool, so she naturally knew what the photo that Yan Haihan was talking about meant. Yan Haihan looked at Ye Tong as if victory was in her hands, and said with a smile, ¡°Nothing. I just want to discuss something with you before your father comes back.¡± ¡°Do you think this is discussing with me?!¡± Ye Tong¡¯s face turned pale for a moment, and the anger in her eyes was not hidden at all. However, it was useless to Yan Haihan and Ye Yuechang. Ye Yuechang, who had been silent all this time, looked at Ye Tong mockingly and said, ¡°Ye Tong, don¡¯t retaliate just because I gave you a hard time. Saying that we want to discuss is just flattering you. Do you think you still have the right to choose?¡± Ye Tong fell silent when she heard that. She stared at the two women who were as vicious as scorpions and asked, ¡°Is it because of the Xie family?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. I think you also know what kind of person Xie Heze of the Xie family is.¡± Yan Haihan did not hold back at all. She nodded and said without hesitation. ¡°The Xie family wants to connect with us by marriage. I think it¡¯s more appropriate for you, the eldest daughter, to do this. What do you think?¡± The Xie family¡¯s old master had made a marriage agreement with the Ye family a long time ago. He said that he wanted Xie Heze to marry Ye Yuechang. It was naturally a good thing for the Ye family. However, Xie Heze suddenly had an accident a few years ago. His face was badly burned due to a fire in the house. From then on, his body was extremely weak, as if he would die at any moment. If Ye Yuechang was to marry him, wouldn¡¯t that be the same as being a widow? Therefore, seeing that the engagement was approaching, Yan Haihan and Ye Yuechang had been running around anxiously. A beauty like Ye Yuechang was at the prime of her life. How could she marry such a guy and be a widow? Ye Yuechang was naturally unwilling. Yan Haihan did not want to watch her daughter spend her time like this either. Thus, she thought of a way to let Ye Tong marry him instead of Ye Yuechang. After all, the marriage was only arranged to marry the Ye family¡¯s woman, but, they didn¡¯t say who she was. As if she was worried that Ye Tong wouldn¡¯t agree, Ye Yuechang looked at Ye Tong and said with a smile, ¡°Sister, you have to think clearly. If these photos spread out in the future, how will you live?¡± There was a smile at the corner of Ye Yuechang¡¯s eyes, but this smile made Ye Tong shudder. How could someone be so vicious to such an extent? Ye Tong¡¯s clenched fists were slightly trembling. She looked at Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan, trying her best not to cry. Even so, her voice was still trembling. ¡°If you want me to marry in your place, you can discuss it with me directly. Why did you do such a thing? You are also a woman. Don¡¯t you know what this means to a woman?!¡± Ye Yuechang sat on the sofa indifferently. Then, she looked at her new nails and said calmly, ¡°Of course I know what this means. But if I don¡¯t do this, how can I guarantee that this matter will be foolproof?¡± A trace of impatience appeared on Yan Haihan¡¯s frowning face. She looked at Ye Tong and said, ¡°Alright, do you agree or not? If you don¡¯t, I can¡¯t guarantee where these photos will appear.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll marry him!¡± Chapter 4 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Tong¡¯s voice trembled as she said this. Looking at Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan¡¯s overjoyed expressions, she stretched out her hand. ¡°But shouldn¡¯t you give me these photos?¡± Yan Haihan rolled her eyes at Ye Tong and said, ¡°Well, when your father comes back, you take the initiative to tell him that you can replace Changchang in getting married. After you get married, I will destroy them. You don¡¯t have to worry.¡± It seemed that she wouldn¡¯t be able to get the photos back for the time being. Ye Tong was silent for a moment, then she looked at Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan with bloodshot eyes, she said fiercely, ¡°I will do as you ask, but after I get married, if any of these photos get into the hands of others¡­¡± ¡°Even if I die, I will make you pay the price!¡± After saying that, Ye Tong turned around and went upstairs without any hesitation, leaving Ye Yuecheng and Yan Haihan staring blankly at her back with a trace of fear in their eyes. When Ye Tong spoke just now, the viciousness in her eyes had indeed frightened Ye Yuecheng and Yan Haihan. However, when the two of them came to their senses, Yan Haihan looked at Ye Tong¡¯s back and cursed, ¡°Little b*tch, what¡¯s your attitude when you are talking to me?! You dare to threaten me?!¡± ¡°Mom!¡± Ye Yuechang pulled Yan Haihan¡¯s arm and said with a smile, ¡°Don¡¯t lower yourself to her level. If you force her into a corner, who knows what will happen in the end? I don¡¯t want to marry that cripple.¡± ¡°Humph! Who is she? Doesn¡¯t she know who¡¯s in charge in this family? How dare she kicks my nose and face!¡± Yan Haihan looked at Ye Tong¡¯s room and cursed. After a long while, she finally calmed down the anger in her heart. Then, she patted Ye Yuecheng¡¯s arm and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. There will definitely be no problem in this matter. Ye Tong needs to consider the consequences of whatever she does.¡± ¡°As long as something happens to Ye Tong, no one will care about her short-lived mother.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Ye Yuecheng¡¯s eyes carried a trace of pride as she nodded with a smile. Upstairs, Ye Tong sat weakly in her room. When she heard the swearing sounds downstairs, her eyes were red like a rabbit¡¯s eyes. She didn¡¯t know what she had done wrong and why she had to be treated like this. She had been tolerating it. ¡°Mom, I miss you so much¡­¡± Ye Tong caressed the photo of her mother and her tears kept falling down like beads with a broken thread. Ever since her mother passed away and her father married Yan Haihan, Ye Tong could no longer feel any warmth in this house. She had even been living a cautious life. It was not a problem to say that she was a real-life Cinderella. In fact, if Yan Haihan had properly discussed the marriage arrangement with her, Ye Tong would have agreed because Ye Tong did not want to live in this house anymore. She wanted to stay far away from here. However, she did not expect that Yan Haihan and Ye Yuechang would set her up and make her lose her virginity. They even used this to threaten Ye Tong. To be honest, when they were downstairs, Ye Tong really wanted to fight them to the death. Now, her lower body was still a little sore. Ye Tong couldn¡¯t remember what happened last night. She didn¡¯t even remember what the other party looked like. Just like that, she inexplicably handed over her first time. Ye Tong wiped her tears and comforted herself. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. It¡¯s 21st century anyway. Such things are very normal. Whatever is lost is lost. Now, I should think about what I should do if I really marry Xie Heze..¡± Chapter 5 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After all, Ye Tong was no longer a virgin. What would she do if Xie Heze discovered that on the day of their wedding? Ye Tong¡¯s brows were tightly knitted. She felt as if all the injustice in the world had happened to her. After venting her emotion for a while, Ye Tong felt that her mood had calmed down a little. Hadn¡¯t she gone through so much suffering just like that? In the end, she was only married to a crippled Xie Heze. Could it be that it was even more difficult than living in this house? Ye Tong patted her own cheeks and forced herself to be more energetic. ¡°It¡¯s alright. Even if Xie Heze passed away after I marry him, it just happened that I would no longer need to interact with Xie Heze anymore. That would be easier. I just need to endure until Xie Heze passes away. Then, I can be free.¡± Thinking of this, Ye Tong felt that marrying Xie Heze wasn¡¯t a bad thing. It was just that his burnt face would be a little scary, but that wasn¡¯t a big problem. After thinking through this point, Ye Tong felt that her mood was better. However, those photos were still in the hands of Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan, which made Ye Tong a little worried. Ye Tong frowned and was stunned for a while. She felt as if her entire body was falling apart, and she felt extremely uncomfortable. Therefore, she got up and walked to the bed. Then, she curled herself up in the blanket and planned to rest for a while. When Ye Tong woke up, it was already evening. At this time, Ye Qingcang had also returned. It was rare for Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan not to disturb Ye Tong when she was resting. It was probably because Ye Tong promised them that she could replace Ye Yuechang in getting married. After waking up, Ye Tong felt that her body was much better than before. Hearing the voices coming from downstairs, Ye Tong got up and walked downstairs. When she reached the stairs, she saw Ye Yuecheng, Yan Haihan, and Ye Qingcang talking and laughing. The scene looked especially warm. It was the beautiful life of a family of three. Yes, a family of three. Ye Tong¡¯s eyes were a little painful, and she felt that her existence was unnecessary. After seeing Ye Tong, Ye Yuecheng hurriedly touched Yan Haihan with her arm. Yan Haihan immediately understood. She looked at Ye Tong and said with a smile, ¡°Ye Tong, you¡¯re up.¡± Only then did Ye Qingcang turn around to look at Ye Tong, but he only gave a simple nod and did not have any reaction. His reaction pierced Ye Tong¡¯s heart. Indeed, there was no longer any need to stay in this family. If it was possible to leave, then so be it. Yan Haihan looked at Ye Tong and said with a smile, ¡°Ye Tong, didn¡¯t you tell me that you have something to say to your father? Now that your father is back, why aren¡¯t you coming over quickly?¡± These words were obviously reminding Ye Tong that she should tell Ye Qingcang she would replace Ye Yuechang to get married? Ye Qingcang looked at Ye Tong when he heard this as if he was curious about what Ye Tong would say to him. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Ye Qingcang looked at Ye Tong and asked. Ye Tong did not have the time to say anything as Ye Yuechang quickly said, ¡°Father, it¡¯s like this. Sister told me that she has been falling in love with Xie Heze for a long time. She hopes that she can replace me to marry him.¡± ¡°Since I already know that Xie Heze is my sister¡¯s sweetheart, I naturally can¡¯t snatch her love away. So, I¡¯ll let my sister marry him. Father, what do you think?¡± Ye Qingcang raised his eyebrows and looked at Ye Tong when he heard that. He said with a calm expression, ¡°Is that so? Is what your sister said true?¡± Behind Ye Qingcang, Ye Yuecheng and Yan Haihan glared fiercely at Ye Tong. The threat in their eyes was not concealed at all. Ye Tong was bitter in her heart and fell into silence.. Chapter 6 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Yuechang saw that Ye Tong had been silent, she became anxious. She hurriedly pretended to be friendly and walked to Ye Tong¡¯s side. She said with a smile, ¡°Sister, what¡¯s wrong?¡± After walking to Ye Tong¡¯s side, the expression in her eyes changed from the initial innocence to viciousness at an angle that Ye Qingcang could not see. She looked at Ye Tong and said in a deep voice, ¡°You promised us! Or do you want your photo to be posted on the Internet?¡± In the living room, Ye Qingcang was still looking at Ye Tong, waiting for her answer. Ye Tong was silent for a while, then she nodded and pretended that nothing had happened. She said, ¡°Yes, Father. It is indeed like this. I hope you will allow it.¡± Therefore, the wedding that originally belonged to Ye Yuechang changed into another person just like that. Ye Qingcang did not care much about Ye Tong. He had heard of the rumors about Xie Heze. In fact, he did not wish for Ye Yuechang to marry such a cripple, but he had no choice. Since Ye Tong had taken the initiative to say that she admired Xie Heze, then he should allow Xie Heze to marry Ye Tong. Hence, he agreed without a second thought. The next day, the betrothal gifts from the Xie family were given. Looking at the jewelry in front of them that made people unable to shift their eyes away, Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan stared at it with their eyes wide open. Casually picking up a pearls necklace, Ye Yuechang tugged Yan Haihan¡¯s arm and said unhappily, ¡°Mom, are these all for Ye Tong? Does she deserve them?¡± Ye Yuecheng¡¯s eyes turned red with envy when she saw the betrothal gifts. She didn¡¯t expect the Xie family to be so generous. The betrothal gifts were worth a lot of money. If Xie Heze wasn¡¯t disabled, Ye Yuecheng would be more than happy to marry such a rich young master. Yan Haihan also picked up an earring and tried it in front of the mirror. She said casually, ¡°Since you like it, you can take some of them. After all, it¡¯s the betrothal gifts given by the other party. If we take them all away, it won¡¯t look good if others find out.¡± Ye Tong happened to come out from her room and heard how Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan were planning to take the betrothal gifts into their own pockets. After hearing these words, a trace of ridicule flashed in Ye Tong¡¯s eyes. She didn¡¯t want to pay any attention to them at all and turned around to leave. However, Yan Haihan was still sneering behind her and said, ¡°Ye Tong, you don¡¯t have any qualifications to accept so much jewelry. It¡¯s enough to give you some. You should be content, understand?¡± A trace of coldness flashed in Ye Tong¡¯s eyes, but her expression was indifferent. Her photos were still held by Yan Haihan, so she couldn¡¯t say anything. Ye Yuechang also gloated, ¡°Speaking of which, being able to marry into the Xie family is something that countless women dream of!¡± ¡°Hehe!¡± Ye Tong¡¯s face darkened. She turned to look at Ye Yuechang, her eyes filled with an undisguised coldness, ¡°Sister, you¡¯re right. Since you know this is a blessing, why did you push this matter to me in the first place?¡± ¡°After all, if you were the one getting married now, these things would all be yours. Aren¡¯t you guys tempted?¡± Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan were really playing nice after getting a good deal! Ye Yuechang¡¯s small face sank, she looked at Ye Tong with a malevolent expression and said, ¡°Such a person is more suitable for you, Sister. I¡¯ll forget about it. After all, you¡¯re not a virgin anymore. If word gets out, I don¡¯t know if anyone will want you.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll let you have my marriage with Xie Heze. It¡¯s a good thing for you.. Do you understand?¡± Chapter 7 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Tong didn¡¯t say anything. She just glanced at Ye Yuecheng coldly. The coldness in her eyes seemed to be able to turn into a real entity. Ye Yuecheng was shocked. ¡°Alright, Changchang, why are you talking so much to her? Hurry up and see if there¡¯s any jewelry you like,¡± Yan Haihan said to Ye Yuecheng while looking at the mirror happily. Ye Yuechang glared at Ye Tong fiercely. Only then did she turn around and look at the betrothal gifts that were sent to Ye Tong. She was filled with joy as she started to look for the jewelry she liked. However, just as the two of them were trying on the jewelry, Ye Tong¡¯s voice suddenly sounded. ¡°These jewelry should be very expensive, right?¡± Yan Haihan and Ye Yuechang turned around when they heard that and saw Ye Tong looking at them meaningfully. ¡°Nonsense, these jewelry are not things that you can touch, understand? Of course, we will leave some for you, but don¡¯t be too greedy, understand?¡± Yan Haihan rolled her eyes and thought that Ye Tong was interested in the jewelry. ¡°Don¡¯t be greedy?¡± Ye Tong suddenly smiled and slowly walked to their side. She casually picked up one of the jade bracelets and looked at it. ¡°I think what you said is correct. As a person, we shouldn¡¯t be too greedy.¡± ¡°What do you mean?!¡± Ye Yuecheng snatched the jade bracelet back and then looked at Ye Tong with disgust. Ye Tong walked to the sofa at the side and sat down. She looked at the list of betrothal gifts on the table, then, she said indifferently, ¡°Do you think that if the people of the Xie family knew that the betrothal gifts were taken away by you in the end, they would be dissatisfied?¡± The two people who were trying on the betrothal gifts stopped because of her words. Yan Haihan looked at Ye Tong coldly and berated, ¡°Ye Tong, what do you mean by that? Do you really think that you¡¯re a big shot?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not a big shot. However, since I¡¯m the one going to marry Xie Heze, I¡¯ll be the young madam of the Xie family in the future. Do you think that the Xie family would be willing to see their betrothal gifts taken away by some people who have nothing to do with them?¡± Ye Tong looked at Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan with a vague smile. She felt very comfortable when she saw their faces change from surprise to malevolence, and there was a trace of fear in their eyes. ¡°Ye Tong, what do you mean by this?¡± Ye Yuechang looked at Ye Tong with a gloomy face. She felt that Ye Tong¡¯s eyes gave her goosebumps. ¡°Have you forgotten that your photo is still in our hands?¡± Yan Haihan wanted to use this to threaten Ye Tong, but unexpectedly, Ye Tong didn¡¯t seem to care. If not for the photos, Ye Tong might not be so angry, but what she endured in exchange for was their contempt. In the end, she was going to leave this home, so there was no need to spoil them! Ye Tong¡¯s face darkened and she said coldly, ¡°It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t talk about the photos. Since you¡¯re talking about this matter, let¡¯s talk about it properly!¡± ¡°If I find out that my photo is leaked after I get married, then it won¡¯t only affect me, but also the Xie family!¡± ¡°When the time comes, it¡¯s not up to me to decide how the Xie family will deal with you. However, I feel that your ending will be more miserable.¡± ¡°Of course, I will definitely not speak up for you. After all, there is a limit to my patience. Naturally, you can choose to send them out now. However, the Xie family won¡¯t choose a tainted woman to enter their home if they found the photos.¡± Ye Tong looked at her hand leisurely and continued, ¡°When that time comes, I reckon that this matter will fall on you again.. My dear sister, what do you think?¡± Chapter 8 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Yuecheng¡¯s expression suddenly changed. Indeed, she had always wanted to use the photos to threaten Ye Tong, but she had never thought of this. In this way, wouldn¡¯t this photo be useless no matter what she did? After seeing Ye Yuecheng and Yan Haihan¡¯s expressions, Ye Tong knew that her words were effective. Yan Haihan said with an ugly expression, ¡°Since you¡¯ve agreed to marry Xie Heze, we naturally won¡¯t mention this matter again. You don¡¯t have to worry about this.¡± ¡°Hmm, that¡¯s good then.¡± A brilliant smile appeared on Ye Tong¡¯s face, and then she said with a smile, ¡°But you must be careful because if this photo accidentally leaked out in the future, it would still be a trouble for you.¡± ¡°You must keep them well. I¡¯m not worried about myself, I¡¯m worried about you.¡± These words were really disgusting. Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan¡¯s faces were as ugly as if they had eaten a fly. They originally thought that the photo was Ye Tong¡¯s weakness, but they didn¡¯t expect it to be a time bomb. Ye Tong¡¯s arrogant look made them angry, but they couldn¡¯t do anything to her. Ye Tong continued, ¡°Also, the list of betrothal gifts is here. If nothing goes wrong, the Xie family will also have a list with them.¡± ¡°Since I¡¯m the one getting married, these things naturally belong to me. Before this, I can give you whatever you like, but it¡¯s different now.¡± Yan Haihan and Ye Yuechang¡¯s ugly faces became even uglier. Ye Yuechang even rushed in front of Ye Tong and said sternly, ¡°Ye Tong, what do you mean?¡± As she spoke, she raised her palm and slapped Ye Tong¡¯s face but it was blocked by Ye Tong. Ye Tong looked at Ye Yuechang who was standing in front of her and said coldly, ¡°You¡¯d better be careful. I¡¯m getting married tomorrow.¡± ¡°Do you think the Xie family will not do anything if there are wounds on my face?¡± ¡°You!¡± Ye Yuecheng looked at Ye Tong in exasperation, unable to say a word. Ye Tong pushed Ye Yuecheng¡¯s hand away and then looked at Yan Haihan who was standing behind her with a cold gleam in her eyes. ¡°In addition, you¡¯d better put all these things back. If I find anything missing here, I¡¯ll tell my husband, Xie Heze, about it.¡± ¡°At that time, I can¡¯t guarantee that the Xie family will not come to you for my betrothal gifts.¡± When she said this, a bright smile appeared on Ye Tong¡¯s face. She looked beautiful, but it was bone-chilling in Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan¡¯s eyes. ¡°In order to prevent something embarrassing from happening, I think it¡¯s better not to put things that are not yours into your own pockets.¡± Ye Yuecheng and Yan Haihan were so angry that their chests heaved up and down. In the end, they could only angrily take off their jewelry and throw them into the box. Only then did Ye Tong stand up with satisfaction and left with the list. Before leaving, she didn¡¯t forget to instruct Ye Yuecheng and Yan Haihan to check carefully. Any loss of one of the jewelry was enough to send them to jail. Ye Yuecheng and Yan Haihan were so angry that they almost fainted. ¡°Mom! Look at Ye Tong¡¯s smug look. I¡¯m so angry!¡± Ye Yuecheng looked at Ye Tong¡¯s back and stomped her feet in dissatisfaction. Looking at the jewelry in front of her, she was really jealous! Yan Haihan was the same, but she was an adult after all. She held Ye Yuecheng¡¯s arm and said, ¡°Okay, Xie Heze may be gone at any time. Even if she marries him, she won¡¯t have a good life.¡± ¡°When you find a good man to marry in the future, you will have these things, even better than hers!¡± Chapter 9 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan were talking downstairs, but Ye Tong didn¡¯t care anymore. The only thing she wanted to know at the moment was what kind of person Xie Heze was. She was going to marry him the next day. But when she thought of what happened that night, Ye Tong was a little uneasy. What if Xie Heze found out that she wasn¡¯t a virgin. In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the wedding. The wedding was pretty simple. Perhaps it was because Xie Heze¡¯s health was not very good, so the wedding was not very grand. They did not even meet the groom. Then, Ye Tong was brought to the Xie family¡¯s villa. However, Ye Tong did not see Xie Heze at all while she was on her way to the villa. The servants brought Ye Tong to the wedding room and left. Ye Tong looked at the maid beside her and said with a smile, ¡°I¡¯m sorry. May I ask where is your family¡¯s young master, Xie Heze? Why haven¡¯t I seen him?¡± The maid lowered her head and said respectfully, ¡°Young Master¡¯s health is not good, so it¡¯s not suitable for him to walk around. When night falls, Young Master will come to the wedding room. Young Madam, you just have to wait for a while.¡± ¡°Is that so¡­¡± Ye Tong put on a regretful look as if she was a little regretful that she couldn¡¯t see Xie Heze. But in reality, she was overjoyed! Just now, the maid said that Xie Heze¡¯s health wasn¡¯t good and it wasn¡¯t suitable for him to move around. How weak must he be to be unable to appear at the wedding? Ye Tong was curious, but at the same time, she felt a little fortunate. Did this mean that Xie Heze wasn¡¯t suitable for sex? After all, didn¡¯t the maid say that it wasn¡¯t suitable for him to exercise? To Ye Tong, this was really great news! With this, Ye Tong didn¡¯t have to worry about Xie Heze discovering that she wasn¡¯t a virgin at all. As for the rumored Xie Heze, it was said that his personality changed drastically after his disfigurement. His entire person was incomparably cruel. Hence, if it wasn¡¯t for the fact that she had no other choice, Ye Tong would definitely not interact much with such a person. However, they were married after all. It would be impossible if they never meet. Hence, Ye Tong could only silently hope that Xie Heze¡¯s body would continue to be weak. Then, even though they would meet each other, she did not have to worry about what Xie Heze would do to her. During this period of time, Ye Tong would conserve her energy and wait for the right time to find an opportunity to leave. After arriving at the wedding room, Ye Tong could not help sighing when she saw the decorations. It seemed that the decorations here were indeed very meticulous. The Xie family was probably very happy that their son in such a state could marry a wife. It was just that she was a little miserable. She still had to face Xie Heze, this cruel fellow. She was not sure when Xie Heze would come. Ye Tong just waited quietly in the room. Time passed bit by bit. Along with the sound of footsteps, Ye Tong, who was about to fall asleep, was instantly startled awake. Could it be that Xie Heze was about to come? Ye Tong reached out her hand and patted her little face, trying to regain a trace of consciousness. Then, she sat upright by the bed, quietly welcoming the other party¡¯s arrival. Creak¡­ With a sound, the door to the room was opened by someone. Then, she saw a tall and straight man wearing a suit slowly walking in. However, his footsteps seemed a little weak? Was this Ye Tong¡¯s future husband Xie Heze? Chapter 10 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Only when the other party walked to her side did Ye Tong carefully and slowly raise her head to look up. To be honest, Ye Tong was actually a little nervous. After all, everyone had said that Xie Heze had been disfigured, his face was ferocious and his temperament was irritable. Ye Tong was worried that when she saw Xie Heze¡¯s face later, she would subconsciously react in a way that she shouldn¡¯t have. If she angered Xie Heze, she wouldn¡¯t have a good ending either. Therefore, after Ye Tong took a deep breath, she silently made ample preparations in her heart. Then, she raised her head and looked over, but the terrifying face that she imagined didn¡¯t appear. On the contrary, Ye Tong saw a silver mask that covered Xie Heze¡¯s face completely, leaving only his chin and an eye. There were no scars on his chin, and his eyes were deep as well, as if she would be attracted with just a glance. Was such a person really as cruel as the rumors said? Ye Tong could not help but guess in her heart. If Xie Heze¡¯s face had not been disfigured, how would he look like? Just this chin and nose alone could vaguely see the outline of a handsome man. Ye Tong felt a little pity in her heart. She felt that Xie Heze should have been a very handsome man, but because of the accident at that time¡­ ¡°Have you seen enough?¡± A cold voice was heard, calling Ye Tong back from her thoughts. Only then did Ye Tong realize that she had lost her composure. She had actually stared at Xie Heze¡¯s face for such a long time just now?! This should cause Xie Heze to be angry, right? Thinking of this, Ye Tong hurriedly shook her head and said, ¡°No, no¡­¡± ¡°No? Why? Don¡¯t tell me you want to continue watching?¡± Xie Heze¡¯s tone could not be discerned from his words. However, his reaction made Ye Tong even more like a frightened rabbit as she anxiously waved her hand. She was just about to jump up from the bed. Ye Tong wanted to say that she did not mean it that way. She did not intend to keep staring at Xie Heze¡¯s face. However, who would have thought that before she could finish her words, she was misunderstood by the man in front of her. Ye Tong hurriedly explained, ¡°No, I didn¡¯t mean it that way. I didn¡¯t mean to look at you just now. I¡¯m sorry, I didn¡¯t mean to keep looking at you¡­¡± Looking at the woman in front of him, Xie Heze¡¯s eyes revealed a subtle smile. Ye Tong lowered her head. She didn¡¯t know whether she should look at Xie Heze or not. Also, Xie Heze didn¡¯t look as weak as the rumors said¡­ Ye Tong clenched her fingers together and began to think. What if Xie Heze wanted to rest here later? What should she do? What if Xie Heze wanted to do something to her? Wouldn¡¯t she be discovered? Thinking of this, Ye Tong became even more flustered. Her face flushed red as she cautiously looked at Xie Heze and said, ¡°Um, do you want to sleep here¡­¡± Ye Tong was thinking of an excuse to reject Xie Heze, but who knew that at this moment, she heard Xie Heze beside her said in a deep voice, ¡°You want me to sleep here?¡± Ye Tong¡¯s face instantly flushed red. For a moment, she didn¡¯t know whether to say she wanted to or not. Ye Tong definitely didn¡¯t want to, but if she said this, would it anger Xie Heze? After struggling for a long time, Ye Tong finally decided on the answer, so she mustered up her courage to say her thoughts.. Chapter 11 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Tong wanted to find an excuse for Xie Heze to rest here, but he shouldn¡¯t touch her. However, just as Ye Tong was about to say it, she heard Xie Heze¡¯s indifferent voice. ¡°I won¡¯t sleep here.¡± Ah? Ye Tong was stunned. She didn¡¯t expect Xie Heze to say such a thing. When she reacted, she was secretly delighted. However, she should not express her feelings. She could only lower her head so that Xie Heze could not see her expression. Even so, her shoulders were still trembling. Ye Tong could not help being happy. However, it was not the case in Xie Heze¡¯s eyes. Xie Heze thought that he had said too harshly, causing the woman in front of him to cry. This made Xie Heze frown. He didn¡¯t know what to do for a moment. To be honest, Xie Heze didn¡¯t have any feelings for his wife who suddenly appeared in front of him. However, when he came to this room, he smelled a familiar scent. In addition, Ye Tong¡¯s voice seemed to give Xie Heze a familiar feeling. It made Xie Heze think of the woman who disappeared after she slept with him in the hotel. Therefore, the harsh words that he wanted to say could only be slowed down. Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong and said in a deep voice, ¡°I came here to tell you that although we are married, we are still strangers in nature. I don¡¯t want to cultivate any feelings.¡± ¡°I believe that you have heard the rumors about me. So, what I mean is that we will not interfere with each other in the future. You can live here, do whatever you want, and tell me if anything is missing.¡± ¡°But I don¡¯t wish you come and disturb my life. For example, hoping me to stay here or spend time with you, understand?¡± After Xie Heze said these words, he saw Ye Tong¡¯s shoulders trembled even more violently. A trace of curiosity towards Ye Tong rose in his heart. What on earth was going on with this woman? She clearly knew about the rumors about him, yet she still wanted to marry him. And she even started crying because of this matter? Although Xie Heze couldn¡¯t bear it, he still felt a little annoyed when he saw Ye Tong crying. Hence, after saying these words, he didn¡¯t wait for Ye Tong to say anything and left the room without hesitation. Ye Tong waited until Xie Heze left and didn¡¯t hear any footsteps, only then did Ye Tong suddenly raise her head and cover her mouth as she laughed. She had never thought that something like this would happen! Before this, Ye Tong was still thinking about how to get along with Xie Heze, and even how to cover up the fact that she was not a virgin. However, she had never thought that Xie Heze would actually say that they would not interfere with each other in the future! Ye Tong was so happy that she was about to jump up. This was naturally not a problem for Ye Tong. In fact, it was something that she could not wish for. Ye Tong laid on the bed casually and began to plan her future living. Since Xie Heze would not restrict her life, could she continue working as usual? Thinking of this, Ye Tong got up and took out her phone to look at the resume that she had sent out previously. She estimated that there would be a reply in a few days. After everything was settled, Ye Tong thought of Xie Heze¡¯s appearance just now, as well as his voice. She suddenly felt that it was somewhat familiar. She seemed to have heard it somewhere before. In a trance, Ye Tong seemed to have returned to that night. In the pitch-black room, that man was whispering in her ear¡­. Chapter 12 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Thinking up to this point, Ye Tong¡¯s face instantly flushed red as she hurriedly sat up from the bed. What was going on? Ye Tong had basically forgotten all the memories from that night. Why did she suddenly remember some of the fragments while she was fine?! Ye Tong shook her head, trying to get this memory out of her mind. It was interesting to say that Ye Tong¡¯s first night was actually given to a gigolo. Ye Tong did not even know how to speak about this matter. She did not even know how that guy looked like. Although she had been consoling herself that it was fine, treating it as finding a man to go out and have some fun, now that she heard Xie Heze¡¯s voice, it awakened Ye Tong¡¯s memory? Ye Tong covered her flushed face and was curious in her heart. Could it be that the voices of these men were similar? Why did Ye Tong feel that Xie Heze¡¯s voice sounded so similar to the man from that night¡­ She shook her head. It was already late. Since Xie Heze would not come and disturb her, then she should rest early. Ye Tong got out of bed and went to the bathroom. She realized that the daily necessities she needed were all prepared. Ye Tong nodded her head in satisfaction. She did not expect the servants of the Xie family to be so considerate. After a simple wash-up, Ye Tong went to bed to rest. It was probably because she had a busy day and her body and mind were relaxed, she fell asleep after lying down for a short while. On the other side¡­ Regarding the feeling of familiarity, Ye Tong wasn¡¯t the only one who felt this way. Xie Heze, who had already left, was also puzzled. When he saw Ye Tong, Xie Heze also had a sense of familiarity in his heart. He even felt that Ye Tong was the woman that night. However, this shouldn¡¯t be the case. The woman that night didn¡¯t seem to have the same personality as his wife. When that woman got angry, she looked like an enraged little lion. She didn¡¯t seem to be the same person as Ye Tong. At the very least, Xie Heze felt that that woman wouldn¡¯t cry after his casual words, right? When he thought of this woman, a trace of anger appeared in Xie Heze¡¯s ink-like eyes. She ran away after having fun with him? How could the mighty Xie Heze be humiliated like this? Not to mention, when Xie Heze left, he found 200 yuan by the bedside? What did she take him for?! Xie Heze had to find this woman and teach her a lesson when she fell into his hands. At this moment, Xie Heze¡¯s phone vibrated. ¡°Mr. Xie, I¡¯ve done what you asked me to do. I¡¯ve found that woman¡­¡± Xie Heze raised his eyebrows. He had finally found this woman. He wanted to see who was so bold to run away after sleeping with him. She even left a sum of money to humiliate him? Xie Heze asked in a low voice, ¡°Really? Who is she? Send me the information!¡± ¡°Yes!¡± After that, Xie Heze¡¯s phone vibrated a few times. Then, Xie Heze received a series of messages. When he saw the messages on his phone, a trace of surprise appeared in Xie Heze¡¯s eyes. The information he received showed that the girl who slept with him that night and left was his wife, Ye Tong?! Xie Heze was stunned for a moment before he suddenly laughed. He turned around and looked in the direction of Ye Tong¡¯s room. He muttered to himself, ¡°This is really interesting. I didn¡¯t expect you to deliver yourself to my doorstep.¡± After that, Xie Heze, who had already walked into the courtyard, turned around and walked into the hall¡­. Chapter 13 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xie Heze originally planned to not interfere with Ye Tong, but the premise was that Ye Tong was just an ordinary woman, a bride assigned to him by his family. However, things were different now. The woman Xie Heze had been looking for all this time was actually Ye Tong, whom he had just met? Xie Heze didn¡¯t expect that this seemingly harmless woman, Ye Tong, actually had such a side. Since he had found her, Xie Heze naturally wouldn¡¯t leave just like that. Therefore, after Xie Heze put away his phone, he turned around and walked back without hesitation. However, just as he took a few steps, his phone rang again. After seeing the contact displayed on the phone, Xie Heze¡¯s brows furrowed slightly. No one knew what the person on the other end of the phone said, but Xie Heze¡¯s expression instantly changed. Then, he turned around again and strode out of the house. He wanted to teach Ye Tong a lesson, but¡­ Before Xie Heze left, he looked in Ye Tong¡¯s direction and said to himself, ¡°I¡¯ll let you off first.¡± ¡­ Late at night, there seemed to be a trace of fog in the air. The sound of a car rang out, and then the servants of the villa walked out as if they were welcoming someone. The car door opened. Then, they saw a man with a straight figure and a cold expression walking out slowly. When he didn¡¯t speak, he exuded a sense of oppression. ¡°Young Master, you¡¯re back?¡± The servant came forward and said to Xie Heze. Xie Heze nodded indifferently and then walked into the villa. However, this direction made the butler a little curious. Because under normal circumstances, shouldn¡¯t Xie Heze go back to his room after he returned? But why was he heading towards his wedding room when the butler looked in Xie Heze¡¯s direction¡­ Although the butler was a little puzzled, he didn¡¯t say anything. After all, Xie Heze and Ye Tong were married, so it was normal for Xie Heze to go to the wedding room. Xie Heze did not know how the butler behind him looked at him. He was just curious what Ye Tong¡¯s reaction would be when she saw him coming back again. When he thought of this, Xie Heze¡¯s eyes even revealed a hint of a smile that he did not notice. He could not wait to see Ye Tong¡¯s frightened little face. It would definitely be very interesting. After walking to the door, Xie Heze simply twisted the doorknob, but he found that the door was locked from the inside. Xie Heze raised his eyebrows and was a little surprised. He didn¡¯t expect this little woman to be so vigilant. She was married, but she locked the door when she was sleeping. Could it be that she was worried that he would come back in the middle of the night? If this had happened before, Xie Heze would definitely think that Ye Tong¡¯s actions were unnecessary. However, it was different now because it was proven that Xie Heze would indeed come back in the middle of the night. However, it didn¡¯t matter. Every room here had a key. If Xie Heze wanted to enter, even if Ye Tong locked the room from the inside, it would be useless. Thinking of this, the corners of Xie Heze¡¯s mouth curled up into a wicked smile. He turned around and waved at the butler. Then, he took the room key from the butler¡¯s hand. This wicked smile made the butler a little surprised. He didn¡¯t expect Xie Heze to have such a childish side. Xie Heze didn¡¯t notice the butler¡¯s expression. He inserted the key into the keyhole. With a click, the lock was opened. Xie Heze tightened his grip on the door handle again and turned it gently. Creak¡­ The door was opened.. Chapter 14 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The lights in the room had been turned off, and the only light in the room was the faint moonlight. Ye Tong seemed to have fallen asleep. She didn¡¯t notice Xie Heze walked in. There was a hint of playfulness in the depths of Xie Heze¡¯s eyes. He slowly walked to the bedside and saw Ye Tong, who was now sound asleep. After she fell asleep, Ye Tong looked exceptionally obedient. Her long and narrow eyelashes were like a small fan, covering a faint shadow. She didn¡¯t seem like the same person as the woman on the bed back then. If it wasn¡¯t for the familiar smell on Ye Tong¡¯s body and the information he had found out previously, Xie Heze wouldn¡¯t have believed that such a coincidence would happen in this world. His marriage partner was the woman who had slept with him and then escaped. Xie Heze sat by the bed. At this moment, when he looked at Ye Tong¡¯s appearance, he felt that if he were to look at Ye Tong in the dark, there were indeed some similarities between her and the woman back then. Especially under the weak moonlight, her small mouth with a watery surface looked exceptionally alluring. For a moment, Xie Heze¡¯s heart was faintly a little restless. Xie Heze knew that if he touched her, he would definitely wake Ye Tong up. However, even though this was what he thought in his heart, his body was very honest as he extended his hand to Ye Tong¡¯s face, carefully caressing her face. When his hand touched Ye Tong¡¯s mouth, he couldn¡¯t help but exert some force. Xie Heze was very worried that what he had done would wake Ye Tong up, but he didn¡¯t expect Ye Tong to sleep like a dead pig. There was no reaction at all. It was as if even if he sold Ye Tong, Ye Tong would not know. Looking at Ye Tong¡¯s sleeping appearance, Xie Heze smiled helplessly. He shook his head and said, ¡°I¡¯ve been looking for you for so many days. I didn¡¯t expect you to come knocking on my door.¡± ¡°Tell me, how should I punish you?¡± Xie Heze knew that Ye Tong probably didn¡¯t know that he was the man that night, so he had the idea of teasing Ye Tong. After staying in this room for a while, Xie Heze felt that he had to leave immediately. Otherwise, the room was filled with the sweet scent of Ye Tong¡¯s body and Xie Heze couldn¡¯t help thinking of what happened that night. Xie Heze was worried that if he stayed here any longer, he wouldn¡¯t be able to control himself and do something. Hence, after staying in the room for a while, he left. The next morning¡­ When the sun shone on Ye Tong¡¯s face, Ye Tong¡¯s brows furrowed slightly. After stretching her body, her mind became somewhat clear-headed. Speaking of which, Ye Tong had a dream last night. In the dream, she didn¡¯t know what had happened, but the gigolo that she met previously had actually come to her room. He was even touching her. It was as if she was in a daze and she heard a sentence, ¡°I¡¯ve finally found you.¡± When Ye Tong thought of this, she violently shook her head. Then, she patted her little face and muttered to herself, ¡°Ye Tong, what¡¯s wrong with you? Why did you have such a dream? Could it be that you still want to see that fellow?¡± Ye Tong felt that something was wrong with her. She was married. Even though the man on her back looked really handsome back then, but there was one thing that she had to know, and that was there would be no possibility between her and the gigolo! Ye Tong got up from the bed, shook her head, and said, ¡°Why would I have such thoughts? It¡¯s really scary. Although Xie Heze told me not to interfere with each other in the future, I can¡¯t cuckold my husband since I¡¯m married, right?¡± At the same time, Ye Tong had a baffling feeling in her heart.. He was clearly just a gigolo, how could Ye Tong still keep thinking about him? Chapter 15 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Bang, bang, bang¡­¡± Just as Ye Tong was in a daze, there was a series of knocks on the door. Following that, the female servant¡¯s respectful voice sounded. ¡°Young Madam, are you awake? The breakfast is ready.¡± When Ye Tong heard this, she was stunned. She was even a little surprised. She didn¡¯t expect that someone from the Xie family would invite her for a meal? The treatment here was really like heaven when compared to the treatment Ye Tong received in her own home. Speaking of which, other than her husband was a little weak, the life here seemed to be pretty good. Ye Tong was initially worried that she would have a very hard time after coming here. She even had to face this temperamental Xie Heze. For a moment, she was a little uneasy in her heart. However, she did not expect that the situation did not match with what she was thinking. Not only did Ye Tong not encounter any bad things, Xie Heze even told her on the day of their wedding that she could do whatever she wanted to do in the future. In the morning, someone even invited her to eat. For a moment, Ye Tong¡¯s mood rose from the bottom of the valley to the peak in an instant. Such a matter made Ye Tong feel that her life had become incomparably beautiful. When her mood was good, Ye Tong would naturally treat everyone around her sincerely. Even if they were the Xie family¡¯s servants, they were no different from her own family in Ye Tong¡¯s eyes. Hence, after hearing these words, Ye Tong smiled and said, ¡°Okay, I know. Please wait for me for a moment. I¡¯ll come down immediately.¡± After saying this, Ye Tong immediately got up. However, Ye Tong immediately discovered another thing. She didn¡¯t seem to have any clothes to wear¡­ She was wearing a wedding dress when she came yesterday. On this morning, she couldn¡¯t possibly wear a wedding dress and go down to eat, right? Ye Tong frowned slightly, but she felt that according to the Xie family¡¯s style of doing things, it shouldn¡¯t be possible for them to be unprepared for this kind of situation, right? Thus, Ye Tong got off the bed and began to walk towards the cabinet. As expected, things were indeed as Ye Tong had thought. The Xie family had prepared clothes for Ye Tong, and it even made Ye Tong feel a little overwhelmed by the favor. There were so many clothes here that Ye Tong was a little dazzled, and every single one of them was very suitable for Ye Tong¡¯s size. The first time Ye Tong saw it, her eyes widened, and she exclaimed in surprise, ¡°Is this the world of the rich? Even if I change the clothes here every day, I probably won¡¯t be able to wear all of them!¡± Furthermore, these clothes all looked extremely expensive. They were definitely luxurious items. Ye Tong swallowed her saliva. Although these clothes were all hers now, Ye Tong was still a little cautious, afraid that one of the clothes would be damaged. Hence, in the end, Ye Tong randomly found an ordinary-looking household clothing in this dazzling cloakroom and put it on. Then, she opened the door and walked towards the hall. Usually, they would eat at the dining table in the hall. Even the butler who had seen the world was stunned by Ye Tong at first glance. Her jet-black hair was shining, and her sweet aura carried a hint of maturity. The butler and the others could not help but sigh. Ye Tong was indeed a great beauty. However, this great beauty¡¯s pupils were trembling at this time. She even widened her eyes and looked at the people in front of her in shock.. Chapter 16 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After the butler saw Ye Tong¡¯s appearance, there was a trace of incomprehension in his eyes. He looked at Ye Tong and said with a smile, ¡°Young Madam, what¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Ye Tong looked at the table full of delicacies in front of her in shock. Then, she looked at the butler and said in surprise, ¡°These¡­ These are all for me?¡± Hearing this, the butler nodded indifferently and said, ¡°That¡¯s right. These are the breakfast we specially prepared for you.¡± ¡°But¡­ but this seems to be too much. I can¡¯t finish it all by myself.¡± Ye Tong frowned at the table full of food. Her appetite was not so big. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter, Young Madam. If you can¡¯t finish it, then don¡¯t finish eating them all,¡± the butler said lightly as if he didn¡¯t care about these delicacies at all. Ye Tong waved her hand and said, ¡°That won¡¯t do. It¡¯s such a waste.¡± When she was in the Ye family, Ye Tong was often bullied by Ye Yuechang and Yan Haihan. Sometimes, she even didn¡¯t have any food to eat, especially when Ye Qingcang was on a business trip. Therefore, Ye Tong had formed a good habit of not wasting food. Now that Ye Tong knew that these were prepared for her, if she could not finish them, they might just throw them away. Ye Tong was worried that she would be punished by the heavens. Therefore, Ye Tong looked at the butler and said, ¡°Have you eaten?¡± ¡°We can go to the kitchen to eat later. Young Madam, you don¡¯t have to worry about us.¡± After the butler finished speaking, Ye Tong smiled and said, ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, you guys can sit down and eat with me. Anyway, I can¡¯t finish eating by myself. It would be a waste to throw it away like this.¡± ¡°Absolutely not!¡± When the butler heard that, a trace of fear appeared on his face. He looked at Ye Tong and repeatedly waved his hand and said, ¡°We are servants, and you are the master. Since ancient times, there has never been a servant eating with the master at the same table.¡± ¡°Aiya, it doesn¡¯t matter. You guys don¡¯t have to treat me as a master. Just treat me as your family. Sit down and eat together,¡± Ye Tong said indifferently. Ye Tong¡¯s reaction really surprised the servants and the butler. After all, they did not expect Ye Tong to say such a thing. It even seemed like she really thought so sincerely. This made their hearts warm. But even so, the butler and the others were still unwilling to eat together with Ye Tong. In the end, Ye Tong was helpless and could only say, ¡°It¡¯s only this one time. It¡¯s alright, right? The main thing is the breakfast that you guys prepared this time is really too much. I can¡¯t finish it at all.¡± ¡°Furthermore, you guys should have spent quite a lot of effort to prepare all this. How can you just throw it away? If you guys don¡¯t sit down and eat with me, I won¡¯t eat either. You guys can do as you see fit.¡± Seeing that Ye Tong had said so, the butler and the rest finally agreed to eat together. However, they also said that it was only this once and it wouldn¡¯t happen again. Ye Tong nodded. During the meal, she told them, ¡°Actually, if I¡¯m the only one eating at home in the future, there¡¯s no need to prepare so much. Just casually prepare some. I can¡¯t eat so much, and there¡¯s no need to eat so luxuriously.¡± Ye Tong¡¯s actions undoubtedly left a very good impression on the butler and servants present. Ye Tong did not mind this, because these were indeed Ye Tong¡¯s true thoughts. After eating, Ye Tong¡¯s phone suddenly vibrated, as if she had received some messages. Ye Tong picked up the phone, took a look, and a smile appeared on her face. Chapter 17 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Last night, Ye Tong was still thinking about this matter. At that time, she had sent a resume to a relatively famous pharmaceutical company. Initially, there had been no reply at all. Ye Tong even thought that she wouldn¡¯t be able to get to anyway on this matter. However, she did not expect that she would suddenly receive a message from the personnel department. It said that she could come to the company for an internship for a period of time. If she performed well, she could stay. Such a matter was considered very good news for Ye Tong. She was so excited that her face began to turn red. If that was the case, Ye Tong should be able to go to work the next day. She thought of what Xie Heze had said before. The two of them would not interfere with each other. Did this mean that she could go to work? Ye Tong put away her phone. She looked at the butler tentatively and said, ¡°Well, I might need to go to work tomorrow. There shouldn¡¯t be any problems with this matter, right?¡± The butler heard this and nodded with a smile. ¡°Of course, what Young Madam wants to do is entirely up to you. Young Master has already informed us about this matter.¡± ¡°Really?!¡± Ye Tong was so excited that she directly stood up. After seeing the reaction of the butler and the others, she realized that her reaction was a little too extreme. Ye Tong looked at them very embarrassedly and said with a smile, ¡°Sorry, I was too excited¡­¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. I think this should be good news for you,¡± the butler shook his head and said with a smile. ¡°Yup!¡± Ye Tong nodded. After she finished eating, she took a stroll around the villa and briefly understood the environment and the furnishings of the villa. Xie Heze did not appear even when it was evening. It was just as they had agreed at the beginning. Although the two of them were married, they would not interfere with each other in the future. This was a good thing for Ye Tong. Hence, she did not ask about Xie Heze¡¯s current location. She rested early in the evening. Next early morning, Ye Tong put down the alarm clock and sat up on the bed. Then, she found a more formal suit in her cloakroom and set off to her destination. After a day, Ye Tong had basically gotten used to this place. Although she was still a little shocked about everything here, she could accept it. After putting on some light makeup, Ye Tong rushed to the company confidently. Ye Tong¡¯s suit set off her mature charm, but there was a hint of innocence in her eyes. Her fair skin and innocent big eyes attracted many people¡¯s attention. When Ye Tong left, the butler wanted to drive her to her office but was rejected by Ye Tong. There was no other reason, but Ye Tong felt that it was too high-profile to take the car to the internship. Although she was now married to Xie Heze, she didn¡¯t have any feelings for him. It didn¡¯t seem appropriate to use the Xie family¡¯s resources without any scruples. After arriving at the destination, Ye Tong looked at the towering building in front of her. Her eyes were filled with unconcealed longing and excitement. After taking a deep breath, a trace of determination appeared in her eyes. Then, she walked into the building. This was a brand new life for Ye Tong. It was also a life that could prove her strength. Ye Tong silently encouraged herself in her heart. There would be no problems. She could definitely stay! Chapter 18 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio In the following few days, Ye Tong had a very fulfilling life. She didn¡¯t see Xie Heze again, nor was she disturbed by Yuechang or Yan Haihan. What made Ye Tong feel strange was that during this period of time, she kept dreaming about that man when she was sleeping. Ye Tong was very helpless. She even faintly felt that she had let Xie Heze down. Although Xie Heze had said that they would not interfere with each other and it might be an accident to dream of that guy once, wouldn¡¯t it be a little strange if she had been dreaming about this fellow all this time? After waking up on this day, Ye Tong held her head and said helplessly, ¡°Ye Tong, Ye Tong, what¡¯s wrong with you? Could it be that you still remember him in your heart?¡± ¡°You don¡¯t even know how that fellow looks like. Furthermore, he¡­ he is a gigolo!¡± Ye Tong began to suspect that it was because she had never experienced such a thing before, hence, it left an indelible impression in Ye Tong¡¯s heart after she had such an experience all of a sudden. Ye Tong did not know how to explain it? It was also strange. When she was at home previously, she did not have such a dream. It just so happened that after she married here, she would dream about that fellow every night. Ye Tong even felt that there was something wrong with this place. Or could it be that someone entered her room at night? Yet, it shouldn¡¯t be. Ye Tong would lock the door behind her every night when she slept. Shaking her head, Ye Tong shook off these inexplicable thoughts. Then, she washed up and went downstairs. As Ye Tong had said before that the servants didn¡¯t need to prepare so many dishes for her, the butler and the others had improved a lot. Although it was still relatively rich, it wasn¡¯t as exaggerated as the first time. Moreover, Ye Tong could finish all these dishes, which made Ye Yong very satisfied. Every time she ate, she would praise the Xie family¡¯s chef. The dishes they made were well-balanced. In just a few days, Ye Tong felt as if she had gained a little weight from eating. After eating, Ye Tong went to work as usual but who knew that she would meet a rather strange guy in the company this time. To say that he was strange was not because this person was strange, but his behavior was a little strange. Standing in front of Ye Tong was a man in a suit. When he spoke, his voice was clear and deep, and it even gave people the feeling of a subwoofer. His eyes were extremely deep, and his star-like eyebrows and sword-like eyes had an extraordinary temperament. When Ye Tong saw him, for a moment, she felt that this guy was some big boss of a company. But¡­ The big boss would not casually come and talk to her, right? This was Xie Heze¡¯s first time coming to the company, but he didn¡¯t expect to see Ye Tong here. He had to say that Ye Tong, who was wearing a suit, was very stunning. Xie Heze couldn¡¯t help but have the intention to tease Ye Tong. When they were at home, Xie Heze always wore a mask, so Ye Tong didn¡¯t recognize him. But now, Xie Heze was really curious what Ye Tong¡¯s reaction would be when she found out that the man she spent the night with had appeared in front of her. ¡°What a coincidence.¡± Xie Heze walked up to Ye Tong and said in a deep voice, a hint of amusement appearing in his eyes. Xie Heze had guessed what Ye Tong¡¯s reaction would be when she saw him countless times, but he didn¡¯t expect this girl to have such a reaction.. Chapter 19 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Tong frowned as she looked at the man in front of her and asked in puzzlement, ¡°Do we know each other?¡± Did they know each other¡­ This sentence made the expression on Xie Heze¡¯s face crack. What did this little woman mean? Could it be that she didn¡¯t know the man in front of her anymore? That night was so crazy, yet she actually forgot about it? Thinking of this, a trace of anger appeared in Xie Heze¡¯s eyes. Especially when he thought of how Ye Tong had given him 200 yuan before she left, his eyes seemed to have been knocked over by ink, and it was even more unfathomable. Xie Heze was silent for a moment. Then, he looked at the work badge on Ye Tong¡¯s chest and said, ¡°Which part are you mainly in charge of here?¡± Hearing this, Ye Tong felt even more baffled. What on earth was going on with this guy? Although he was quite handsome, there seemed to be something wrong with his brain. Ye Tong looked at Xie Heze suspiciously. An idea flashed through her mind. She looked at Xie Heze and said, ¡°Are you here to see a doctor?¡± They had indeed set up a place for medical consultation. This guy was talking nonsense. Could he be here to see a doctor? But who knew that after she said that, the man in front of her seemed to become even gloomier. Just as Ye Tong was wondering if it was her words that made him angry, she suddenly saw the other party nod and say, ¡°Yup, you can say that. I¡¯m here to look for someone.¡± ¡°Ah, you¡¯re here to look for someone. Which doctor are you looking for? I can help you.¡± Ye Tong felt that it might be her own illusion just now. After hearing his words, she took the initiative to offer her help to Xie Heze. Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong¡¯s serious expression and a trace of interest flashed in his eyes. Had this woman always been so innocent? She didn¡¯t seem to be the same as the woman he saw back then. Speaking of which, Xie Heze had returned home late after taking care of some matters over the past few nights. Hence, when he returned, he would always go to Ye Tong¡¯s room to take a look. However, Ye Tong had already fallen asleep every time. She even slept like a pig. No matter how Xie Heze moved, Ye Tong could not wake up. Xie Heze began to wonder how such a fellow had left before he woke up that morning. Could it be that he was tired after working too hard that night? The woman in front of him that night was like poison. It was as if he was addicted to her. Xie Heze was insatiable and eventually fell into a deep sleep. ¡°Sir? Sir, can you hear me?¡± Ye Tong saw that Xie Heze had been staring at her with a burning gaze. It made her feel a little embarrassed. This gaze made Ye Tong feel as if he could see through her. Xie Heze came back to his senses after hearing Ye Tong¡¯s voice. His eyes were a little surprised. He actually lost his mind because of a woman. Xie Heze shook his head and said, ¡°What did you say?¡± Ye Tong smiled and said, ¡°I said, I can help you find the person you¡¯re looking for. Coincidentally, I also work here. If you find the person on your own, it might be a little time-consuming.¡± Looking at Ye Tong¡¯s smile in front of him, Xie Heze suddenly had an evil idea in his heart. He wanted to see Ye Tong crying in front of him. In Ye Tong¡¯s eyes, it was after she finished saying these words that Xie Heze in front of her suddenly looked at her and curled the corners of his mouth. Before Ye Tong could react, he bent down and slowly said in an extremely ambiguous tone beside Ye Tong¡¯s ear, ¡°I¡¯m here to find a woman who threw away 200 yuan and left after sleeping with me back then.¡± ¡°Do you know where she is? Can you take me to her?¡± Chapter 20 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The moment she heard this, Ye Tong felt her mind go blank in an instant, and a buzzing sound rang in her ears. What did he mean by this? Ye Tong subconsciously thought of what happened that morning. At that time, when Ye Tong woke up, she hugged her clothes and left. However, before she left, she felt that she should still give some money, so she took out the 200 yuan from her pocket and placed it by the bed. Could this guy be the man who slept with her for the whole night?! Ye Tong¡¯s mind could not react in time as she stared blankly at Xie Heze. After seeing Ye Tong¡¯s reaction, Xie Heze revealed a satisfied smile. This was right. This was the reaction that Ye Tong should have when she saw him. Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong with an unfathomable gaze. He did not know what Ye Tong was thinking in her heart. Xie Heze snapped his fingers in front of Ye Tong, then said with a smile, ¡°How? Can you take me to find this woman? Her actions really hurt me.¡± ¡°You¡­¡± Ye Tong swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and a trace of panic appeared in her eyes. She looked at Xie Heze and said, ¡°You, could it be you are the gigolo¡­¡± The moment the word ¡°gigolo¡± was uttered, the man¡¯s face darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye. Ye Tong was so frightened that she quickly shut her mouth. She frowned at Xie Heze and said, ¡°I don¡¯t know what you¡¯re talking about. This¡­ This person, you should go look for her somewhere else. I can¡¯t help you.¡± Ye Tong analyzed Xie Heze¡¯s words. He probably didn¡¯t know who she was. The lights were so dim that night that even she didn¡¯t know what the other person looked like. She thought that Xie Heze wouldn¡¯t be able to tell who she was, right? Ye Tong thought in her heart. Then, she decided to deny this matter no matter what. After seeing Ye Tong¡¯s reaction, a trace of a smile appeared in Xie Heze¡¯s eyes. This woman was quite cunning. She actually decided to deny it no matter what? After Ye Tong said this, she anxiously planned to leave this place. However, she was unexpectedly stopped by Xie Heze. Bang¡­ Ye Tong felt as if her head had directly knocked against Xie Heze¡¯s chest. The pain caused Ye Tong to burst into tears. She painfully rubbed the spot where she had been knocked against just now. She was facing the man¡¯s broad chest and the man¡¯s breath assaulted her face. In an instant, some images surfaced in Ye Tong¡¯s mind. These images caused Ye Tong to instantly blush. There was simply no way for her to face Xie Heze normally. ¡°Wh¡­ What are you doing? I don¡¯t know anything. I¡¯m not that person. Don¡¯t look for me¡­¡± Ye Tong blushed and wanted to leave, but she had no way to escape Xie Heze¡¯s imprisonment. Xie Heze found Ye Tong¡¯s reaction very interesting. He lowered his head and narrowed his eyes. He looked at the flustered woman in front of him with a faint smile. He didn¡¯t expect that someone¡¯s face could be so red. Xie Heze burst out laughing. Then, he reached out his hand and gently patted Ye Tong. Ye Tong was so scared that her heart almost jumped out of her throat. What¡¯s wrong with this guy? How did he find this place? Ye Tong said anxiously, ¡°No, it¡¯s useless for you to look for me. I¡¯m not the person you are looking for. Moreover, I think that with your current identity, you shouldn¡¯t appear here.¡± However, no matter what Ye Tong said, Xie Heze was unwilling to let her off just like that. In the end, he provoked Ye Tong and made her look like an angry kitten, which made Xie Heze even more amused. Ye Tong could also see that the angrier she was, the happier this fellow would be! Ye Tong¡¯s face turned red as she looked at Xie Heze and said, ¡°You, you better get out of the way right now. I still have other things to deal with. You keep on like this¡­¡± However, before Ye Tong could finish her words, she was interrupted by someone. ¡°Aiyo, President, when did you come? Why didn¡¯t you tell us before you come? Ye Tong, what are you doing? Look at your attitude when you are talking to the President!¡± Chapter 21 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xie Heze nodded at this person and then waved his hand, meaning that if there was nothing else, he shouldn¡¯t leave them alone. They were all people who were used to working in the business world, so they could naturally see what Xie Heze meant. Hence, this person gave Ye Tong a look before leaving carefully. No matter how slow Ye Tong was, she could tell from these words that the man in front of her was none other than her big boss, the CEO of this place! What was going on?! For a moment, Ye Tong felt that her brain was stuck. Wasn¡¯t this guy just¡­ a gigolo?! Why did he suddenly become the CEO of this place?! ¡°You¡­¡± Ye Tong swallowed her saliva and looked at Xie Heze in front of her. She stammered, ¡°You¡¯re the CEO of this place?!¡± Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong¡¯s shocked expression. There was a subtle smile on the corners of his eyes. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Ye Tong. ¡°What do you think?¡± Xie Heze lowered his eyebrows and looked over. At this moment, Ye Tong suddenly realized that the man in front of her had an aura that ordinary people did not have. How could such a person be a gigolo¡­ What had she done! Ye Tong¡¯s face was extremely red. Her only thought now was to immediately cover her face and escape from this place. But for some reason, Ye Tong¡¯s legs seemed to be disobeying orders. She just stood on the spot, unable to move at all. Xie Heze¡¯s deep voice sounded in Ye Tong¡¯s ears. ¡°Now do you know what you¡¯ve done wrong?¡± When he thought about how he woke up that morning and found a few banknotes by the bed, Xie Heze¡¯s face couldn¡¯t help but darken. Putting aside the fact that this young lady treated him as someone with that kind of status, even if he was, she shouldn¡¯t have just given him two hundred. To Xie Heze, this was a blatant humiliation. If this news were to spread, it would probably shock a lot of people. ¡°Are you here for an internship?¡± Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong¡¯s pale face and felt that it was exceptionally interesting. The current Ye Tong wasn¡¯t the same as when he first met her. He didn¡¯t expect that this woman actually had so many faces? Ye Tong was shocked and looked at Xie Heze in panic. What did this guy mean? Could it be that he wanted her to leave this company?! How could this be possible? After all, it was already an extremely difficult task for her to get an internship! For a moment, Ye Tong¡¯s little face instantly drooped. Could it be that the job that she had painstakingly obtained was going to be lost just because of that night¡¯s incident? This was so unfair! Thinking of this, a wave of inexplicable anger appeared in Ye Tong¡¯s heart. Even if she had left the money behind and left, that was still her first time! It was already very disadvantageous for her to hand her virginity to Xie Heze for free. If it weren¡¯t for her kind heart, she wouldn¡¯t have left without the money. There was no other way. Ye Tong really didn¡¯t expect that Ye Yuechang and the others would actually find a CEO for her. After all, according to their nature, they would definitely find a random guy to do that kind of service. That was why Ye Tong would pay but who knew that things had developed to this point. This guy actually came to find trouble with her! Thinking of this, Ye Tong felt quite resentful in her heart. She raised her head and stared at Xie Heze in front of her with a resentful look. Xie Heze was a little surprised. Just now, Ye Tong was still in a panic and cute appearance. Why was she like a kitten with fur pricked in the blink of an eye? However, it didn¡¯t matter as Ye Tong was just as cute. Just as Xie Heze was about to speak, he heard Ye Tong angrily say something that made him a little surprised. Chapter 22 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°I¡¯m at a disadvantage too! If you think there¡¯s something wrong, then return the money to me.¡± After saying that, she stretched out her hand and looked at Xie Heze as if she was using her actions to tell Xie Heze to return the money to her. Then, this matter would be written off just like that. Xie Heze could not help but laugh out loud this time. ¡°You, what are you laughing at!¡± Ye Tong looked at Xie Heze angrily. It was as if her tail had been stepped on. ¡°Hehe, I don¡¯t think I can return the money. However, we need to discuss this matter properly. Follow me.¡± After Xie Heze said that, he turned around and walked towards his office without hesitation. He was amused by Ye Tong¡¯s panicked look. It was as if there was no need to worry at all. Ye Tong would not take the opportunity to escape. On the other side, Ye Tong watched Xie Heze¡¯s back as he left, and her heart was conflicted. To be honest, Ye Tong wanted to leave, but after Ye Tong found out that Xie Heze was the CEO here, she actually couldn¡¯t do such a thing. Or it could be said that she didn¡¯t have the courage to do it. After all, Xie Heze¡¯s casual words could decide whether she had to leave this company immediately. Being able to come here for an internship was a rare opportunity for Ye Tong. If it was not because of her lack of ability and not passing the internship period, Ye Tong would not be able to accept any other reason for her to leave the company. After struggling for a minute, a determined expression appeared on Ye Tong¡¯s small face. She walked resolutely behind Xie Heze. Xie Heze saw Ye Tong¡¯s heroic expression from the corner of his eyes and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He seemed to be able to guess what this little woman was thinking about. Ye Tong looked at the broad back view of the man in front of her, as well as the clear and refreshing scent of the heavy wood. Ye Tong could not help but think of the experience that night, and for a moment, her face felt as if it was on fire. Ye Tong simply could not believe that this matter could be so coincidental. In this world, if it was not for the fact that she wanted to meet someone, even if the two of them were very close to each other, they would not have had any chance of meeting each other. However, Ye Tong screamed at the sky in her heart. She was really out of luck. It had been so many days, and she had actually met the man that night again! Furthermore, this man was her CEO. Ye Tong wanted to cry but had no tears. She felt uneasy in her heart. She did not know why this guy called her to the office. After arriving at the office, Ye Tong frowned slightly and looked nervously at Xie Heze in front of her. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Xie Heze turn around and walk to her side. When he reached her side, he suddenly stretched out his hand. ¡°You, what do you want to do? This is the company¡­¡± Ye Tong was so scared that she hurriedly closed her eyes. She even hugged her chest with both hands and cried out in panic. ¡°It¡¯s over, it¡¯s over. This fellow can¡¯t be so petty, right? I only left behind a few pieces of banknotes. Do I have to be taught a lesson?¡± ¡°Click.¡± A crisp sound rang out. What Ye Tong had expected didn¡¯t happen either. She carefully opened her eyes and saw Xie Heze looking at her with a playful expression. So close! Ye Tong¡¯s face instantly flushed red. She subconsciously stepped back, but she realized that the door behind her had been closed at some point?! Recalling the voice just now, Ye Tong immediately guessed that Xie Heze didn¡¯t come here to lay a hand on her, but to close the door! However, Ye Tong didn¡¯t feel fortunate because of this. On the contrary, she was even more flustered. What was the point of closing the door in broad daylight?! Chapter 23 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Could it be that he had evil intentions towards her? This thought suddenly popped up in Ye Tong¡¯s mind. However, Ye Tong immediately forcefully consoled herself. It wouldn¡¯t happen. It wouldn¡¯t happen. There were so many people outside and it was in broad daylight. Even if Xie Heze was the CEO of this place, he shouldn¡¯t be so impudent, right? Could it be that he wanted to force a girl from a respectable family to commit adultery in broad daylight?! ¡°What are you thinking about?¡± Xie Heze¡¯s magnetic voice sounded above her head, scaring Ye Tong so much that her face turned pale. She looked carefully at Xie Heze and said, ¡°Pre¡­ President, may I know why you called me here¡­¡± ¡°Oh? Are you trying to pretend to have amnesia?¡± Xie Heze¡¯s eyes flashed with a hint of a smile. This little woman was really good at pretending. Looking at the tall figure in front of her, Ye Tong seemed to be able to feel the aura emanating from Xie Heze¡¯s body. Even if he didn¡¯t say anything, it still made people feel suffocated. Needless to say, Ye Tong, who already had a devil in her heart, felt that she could hardly breathe. Ye Tong tried her best to push her back against the door, hoping to create a certain distance between herself and Xie Heze. At the same time, if Xie Heze made any bad moves, Ye Tong could guarantee that she would be able to escape from this place immediately. However, Xie Heze only turned around and walked to the office table, then sat down leisurely. Behind him was a bright floor-to-ceiling window. A ray of light shone on Xie Heze¡¯s face, outlining his well-defined face. His ink-like eyes were now firmly locked onto Ye Tong. Ye Tong was momentarily stunned by what she saw. She had to admit that Xie Heze¡¯s looks were indeed top-notch. Ye Tong wanted to cry but had no tears in her heart. She should have thought of it long ago. How could Ye Yuechang and the others find such a high-quality guy for her! Ye Tong pursed her lips and looked nervously at Xie Heze. She felt her chest rise and fall, and her little heart was about to jump out of her chest. When she first arrived here, Ye Tong was still cheering for herself. However, who knew that she would encounter this god of plague on her first day here? At the very beginning, she had naively thought that this fellow had come here to see a doctor. And she had even kindly wanted to help Xie Heze look for someone together! Ye Tong thought back to the words she had said back then, and she wanted to slap herself to death. Especially when she saw that Xie Heze had stopped speaking and felt this low and heavy pressure, Ye Tong¡¯s entire body froze. Ye Tong still didn¡¯t have any shrewdness in this aspect. Hence, the thoughts in her heart were basically revealed on her face. Her small face was filled with calm, and her doe-like eyes were rolling. No one knew what she was thinking in her heart. It made Xie Heze laugh endlessly in his heart. He had the thought of wanting to tease Ye Tong. After that, he leaned back and said with a fake smile, ¡°I don¡¯t know if you still remember what happened back then.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t remember, I don¡¯t remember!¡± Ye Tong said hurriedly. She really didn¡¯t lie. She basically couldn¡¯t remember what happened that night. She only remembered that when she woke up in the morning, Xie Heze, that fellow, was by her side. As for the subsequent events, as for how crazy the two of them were that night, Ye Tong didn¡¯t know. It was just that she would recall some of the scenes intermittently later on. However, Ye Tong¡¯s face would always turn red from embarrassment, and she didn¡¯t want to think further. Therefore, Ye Tong really didn¡¯t remember. Or rather, Ye Tong was too embarrassed to think about it. ¡°You don¡¯t remember? Since that¡¯s the case, I can only help you recall,¡± Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong and said these words lightly. Chapter 24 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio In an instant, Ye Tong felt as if a thread in her brain had suddenly burst open. D*mn! He even wanted to recall memories? How was she supposed to recall memories like this?! Ye Tong looked at Xie Heze and squeezed out a smile, putting on a very innocent look. She looked at Xie Heze and said, ¡°President, what does this mean? I don¡¯t understand¡­¡± ¡°Haha, you¡¯ll understand soon enough.¡± As he spoke, Xie Heze stood up and slowly walked toward Ye Tong. The unique scent of wood from his body instantly surrounded Ye Tong. Xie Heze stretched out his hand and trapped Ye Tong between himself and the door. Then, he lowered his head and slowly leaned toward Ye Tong¡¯s face. Ye Tong hurriedly lowered her head. She even stretched out her hand and wanted to open the office door, but she found that she was tightly suppressed by the man. She had no way to resist at all. ¡°Since you said that you forgot, why don¡¯t we recall what happened that night? We may even replay the scene here. What do you think?¡± Xie Heze¡¯s voice was deep and his tone was hoarse. He looked at the flustered woman in front of him and did not try to hide the mockery in his eyes. Unfortunately, Ye Tong could not see it. After Ye Tong heard Xie Heze¡¯s words, her face instantly turned pale. She even felt that her heart skipped a beat. What¡­ What did he mean by that? What did he mean by replaying the scene?! Before Ye Tong could react to Xie Heze¡¯s words, she suddenly felt a warm sensation on her waist. Xie Heze¡¯s large hand had unknowingly been placed on her waist. Ye Tong was shocked. D*mn, what, what did he think of her! ¡°Don¡¯t be like this!¡± Ye Tong forcefully pushed the man in front of her away. Then, she turned around and planned to leave without any hesitation. Xie Heze did not expect that this petite woman, Ye Tong, would have such great strength when she erupted. He saw that Ye Tong was about to turn the doorknob and leave. Xie Heze casually tidied up his collar and said, ¡°If you go out, you don¡¯t need to intern here anymore.¡± These words clearly hit Ye Tong¡¯s Achilles¡¯ heel. In an instant, Ye Tong froze on the spot, unable to move. Ye Tong didn¡¯t know that the reason why she could intern here was simply because Xie Heze had seen the resume Ye Tong sent. If Xie Heze wanted to, he could replace Ye Tong at any time. Of course, Xie Heze didn¡¯t have such thoughts. The reason why he said these words was purely to scare her. At the same time, Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong¡¯s back and faintly felt a little hot. Just now, Xie Heze just wanted to tease Ye Tong. However, when he saw Ye Tong¡¯s panicked little face, the image of Ye Tong lying under him flashed in his mind. This was the first woman who could casually arouse Xie Heze¡¯s passion. Xie Heze even suspected that Ye Tong¡¯s body had been drugged. When someone could come into contact with her, there was no way to extricate themselves from it? Ye Tong gritted her teeth as she stared at the door in front of her. It was as if she had treated the door as the man behind her. If it was possible, Ye Tong could not wait to step forward and give him a big slap. However, it was obviously not possible at that moment unless she wanted to leave this place earlier. She was really unlucky for eight lifetimes. How could she have offended such a troublesome fellow? Ye Tong did not understand. Xie Heze was such a big CEO. Even if it was a one-night stand, she believed that he had done it many times before, right? She and Xie Heze could only be considered as a love affair. In addition, she also gave the first time to Xie Heze, why did he still need to be so difficult for her?! Chapter 25 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Even though she thought about it, Ye Tong still had to bow her head to reality. She took a deep breath and slowly turned around. The dissatisfaction on her face had changed into a smiling face. Even so, Xie Heze could still see a trace of resentment on this smiling face. Xie Heze raised his eyebrows, and the smile in his eyes became even more intense. This little girl seemed to have deep resentment toward him. Ye Tong gritted her teeth and grinned as she looked at Xie Heze and said, ¡°President, regarding that matter, it was indeed my fault. However, at that time, it was also because I mistook you for¡­¡± The word ¡°gigolo¡± did not come out of her mouth for a moment. Ye Tong was worried that if she said it out loud, Xie Heze would definitely be displeased. As expected, when Ye Tong saw that Xie Heze¡¯s face had darkened a little, Ye Tong hurriedly said, ¡°So this can be considered an unintentional act of mine. Moreover, it was also my first time that night. Speaking of which, President, you actually did not suffer a loss.¡± First time? When he heard this, Xie Heze¡¯s mood was obviously much better. He didn¡¯t expect this little woman to actually be doing it for the first time. After Ye Tong noticed the expression on Xie Heze¡¯s face, her big eyes blinked as she stared at him. She even looked as if she had been wronged as she said, ¡°So, President, don¡¯t be calculative with me, okay?¡± ¡°If it really doesn¡¯t work out, you can return the money to me. Or rather, you can also throw some money at me. That should be fine, right?¡± Ye Tong did not care about these things. As long as there was money, that was the way of the king. Not to mention that Ye Tong¡¯s heart was filled with thoughts of how to appease Xie Heze¡¯s anger. Moreover, what made Ye Tong have a headache was that the Xie Heze in front of her did not seem to want to let her off just like that. However, if she were to continue to be pestered by Xie Heze like this¡­ How was she going to face her husband when she returned? Even if her husband¡¯s physical condition was like that, she shouldn¡¯t have done such a thing. Ye Tong still didn¡¯t know that the man in front of her was her husband, Xie Heze. She just felt that he was her president and her immediate superior. She didn¡¯t have the courage to ask for the other party¡¯s name. All Ye Tong wanted to do was to completely sever all ties with this man and treat him as a normal boss and subordinate relationship in the future. Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong¡¯s innocent expression. She didn¡¯t look like the same person as the vixen that night. Indeed, when Xie Heze saw Ye Tong like this, he was a little soft-hearted. However, Xie Heze wasn¡¯t concerned about whether she had money or not. From Ye Tong¡¯s words just now, Xie Heze keenly grasped that sentence. She didn¡¯t seem to have any recollection of what happened that night. This really made Xie Heze feel a little uncomfortable. After all, Xie Heze had worked very hard that night. But now, only Xie Heze had memories of that night. How could this be? Xie Heze smiled and looked at Ye Tong, saying, ¡°It seems that you really can¡¯t remember what happened that night. Otherwise, you wouldn¡¯t have said those words so indifferently.¡± ¡°I originally thought that the incident that night would make you linger and forget about returning home. I¡¯m really a little sad now.¡± Buzz! Ye Tong finally recovered to her normal complexion after much difficulty. After hearing Xie Heze¡¯s words, she instantly flushed red again! Ye Tong felt as if her face was on fire. She didn¡¯t know how Xie Heze could say such hooligan words in such a serious manner! What lingered and forgot to return home? Could it be that she had to keep this matter hidden in the depths of her heart and take it out from time to time to reminisce?! Chapter 26 - Could Not Be Helped Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xie Heze once again walked forward and pulled Ye Tong into his embrace. Then, ignoring Ye Tong¡¯s struggle, he said in a hoarse voice beside Ye Tong¡¯s ear, ¡°Why don¡¯t we think about what happened that night again now?¡± ¡°Hmm¡­ You¡¯ll definitely have an unforgettable memory after that. What do you think?¡± The ending tone rose slightly and reached Ye Tong¡¯s ears, causing her ears to itch slightly. Ye Tong struggled to break free from Xie Heze¡¯s embrace, but there was nothing she could do. As a woman, her strength was naturally not comparable to a man¡¯s. Therefore, no matter how Ye Tong struggled, it was useless. Seeing that the corner of Xie Heze¡¯s mouth was about to fall on her neck, Ye Tong was so anxious that tears were about to come out. Ye Tong said anxiously, ¡°I¡¯ve already said that I¡¯m sorry. What else do you want to do? Moreover, you don¡¯t lose out on this matter!¡± After feeling the touch of the woman in his arms, Xie Heze¡¯s eyes seemed to have spilled ink. Something was secretly flowing in his eyes. Xie Heze originally thought that his self-control was not bad. Initially, he only wanted to tease Ye Tong. However, he didn¡¯t expect that the moment he touched Ye Tong, Xie Heze actually had the intention to do it for real. Xie Heze knew that he couldn¡¯t continue like this. Otherwise, Xie Heze was worried that he would really do something in this office. Especially when he saw the tears in Ye Tong¡¯s eyes, it made Xie Heze¡¯s heart heat up even more. ¡°What do I want to do? What do you think?¡± Xie Heze let go of Ye Tong and then took a deep breath to suppress the heat in his heart, then, he slowly said, ¡°It¡¯s not impossible for you to give me money, but my status is not just limited to a few banknotes.¡± ¡°Then what do you want to do?!¡± Ye Tong gritted her teeth and looked at Xie Heze with a wronged expression. Although this guy had already had sex with her, how could he do such a thing in broad daylight?! Xie Heze stared at Ye Tong with unfathomable eyes. He said mockingly, ¡°At the very least, you have to give me 20 million yuan, right?¡± 20 million yuan?! Ye Tong looked at Xie Heze in shock. She frowned and said, ¡°Are you robbing me?!¡± Besides, it was only one night. What right did Xie Heze have to be so valuable?! Ye Tong could take out 200 yuan, but it was impossible for her to take out 20 million yuan even if he killed her. Therefore, Ye Tong simply said, ¡°Forget it. I don¡¯t have any money. Otherwise, you can kill me. You can use it to pay off the debt.¡± As she spoke, she looked at Xie Heze with a questioning gaze, as if she was complaining that Xie Heze was not worth so much money at all. Her appearance made Xie Heze both angry and wanted to laugh. ¡°Why? Do you feel that you lost?¡± Xie Heze said with a half-smile. Ye Tong curled her lips and said unhappily, ¡°Why are you so expensive? It¡¯s my first time. Do you know how precious a woman¡¯s first time is? I gave it to you in a daze.¡± ¡°I haven¡¯t said anything yet, yet you still want to ask me for so much money. I don¡¯t have it. Anyway, I can¡¯t take out this money.¡± ¡°No money?¡± The teasing look in Xie Heze¡¯s eyes was even more obvious. He said in a hoarse voice, ¡°If that¡¯s the case, there¡¯s another way. I don¡¯t know if you¡¯ll agree.¡± ¡°What way?¡± Hearing that, Ye Tong immediately widened her eyes and looked at Xie Heze, as if she couldn¡¯t wait to cut ties with Xie Heze. That was indeed what Ye Tong was thinking in her heart. Ye Tong also did not expect that she would lose her first time in a daze. She even found herself such a big trouble. It was really unfair from the heavens.. Could it be that it was just because of Xie Heze¡¯s high status that a night was so expensive? Chapter 27 - Sticking to Marriage Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio However, this was clearly her first time as well. How precious was a woman¡¯s first time? This was something that everyone should know, not to mention that she was already married. If the Xie family found out about this matter, who knew what kind of trouble it would bring her. Ye Tong¡¯s heart was filled with unspeakable bitterness. Fortunately, her husband had yet to share a room with her. He had even said that in the future, they would lead their life individually without interfering with each other. Only then did Ye Tong feel a little more at ease. Although she did not know what to do with the remaining matters, it was not impossible to deal with them later. ¡°Then, you should be with me and be my wife. In that case, I can write off everything that happened that night. What do you think?¡± Xie Heze did not know what was going on. When he saw Ye Tong, he had such a wicked scheme in his heart. He wanted to tease Ye Tong. Although Xie Heze and Ye Tong were married, Ye Tong still didn¡¯t know that the Xie Heze in front of her was her husband. When Xie Heze went to see Ye Tong on the day of their wedding, he also wore a mask. Therefore, Ye Tong wouldn¡¯t know his identity. The rumors in the outside world said that Xie Heze¡¯s appearance was ruined, and he was even a guy with poor health. It was believed that no woman would want to be with Xie Heze, right? Even if they were married, the chances were that the woman was actually eyeing the Xie family¡¯s assets. Therefore, Xie Heze felt that Ye Tong might not have any feelings for him. Facing a handsome man with a lot of money and a man who had lost all his looks, and who didn¡¯t even know when he would die, he believed that every woman would choose the former without hesitation. Apart from teasing Ye Tong, Xie Heze¡¯s words had another meaning. He probably wanted to test Ye Tong. Even if Ye Tong chose the former, Xie Heze didn¡¯t mind. After all, they had just gotten married and didn¡¯t have much of a relationship foundation. However, Ye Tong¡¯s reaction surprised Xie Heze. Ye Tong¡¯s expression changed when she heard that. She frowned and said without hesitation, ¡°This won¡¯t do. I¡¯m already married. How can I do such a thing? !¡± Huh? Xie Heze raised his brows. A hint of surprise appeared in his eyes. Indeed, Xie Heze did not expect Ye Tong to say such a thing. Even though the two of them did not have any relationship foundation, Ye Tong still chose to stick to her marriage. For some reason, Xie Heze actually felt that his mood had improved a lot because of Ye Tong¡¯s words. ¡°But the rumors outside say that your husband¡¯s appearance seems to have been completely ruined, and his body is even weak. If you choose me, it¡¯s clearly a very good choice,¡± Xie Heze continued, looking at Ye Tong with a hint of judgment in his eyes, it was as if he wanted to know if Ye Tong would still be firm in her decision. ¡°Yes, that¡¯s what the outside world says, but this has nothing to do with you. Moreover, since we¡¯re already married, I shouldn¡¯t think too much of my husband because of this. This is the most basic principle of life.¡± Ye Tong¡¯s small face was extremely serious as she looked at Xie Heze. ¡°That¡¯s why I don¡¯t wish for you to describe my husband in this way. Moreover, I won¡¯t agree to this matter. At most, I¡¯ll work for you for free. You can deduct it from my salary.¡± However, after saying these words, Ye Tong suddenly reacted. Why did these words sound a little strange? The man in front of her seemed to have not come into contact with her since that day.. Then, how did he know that she was married to Xie Heze? Chapter 28 - Angry Cat Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xie Heze was slightly taken aback. He didn¡¯t expect this woman to be so quick-witted. She actually found something wrong with his casual words. However, Xie Heze didn¡¯t panic. Instead, he calmly said, ¡°The news of the Xie family¡¯s marriage has long spread like wildfire. Everyone knows that the eldest daughter of the Ye family is married to Xie¡¯s family.¡± ¡°The resume you submitted has information on it. After I saw your name, I naturally knew about it. Why? Is there something wrong?¡± Xie Heze shrugged and looked at Ye Tong with a matter-of-fact look. This made Ye Tong wonder if she had thought too much just now. Speaking of which, it was true. The Xie family was a big family. A casual matter would cause the entire city to discuss it. Therefore, the news of the Xie family¡¯s young master getting married would naturally spread. Ye Tong didn¡¯t think much about it. She just looked at Xie Heze and discussed, ¡°Then, what I said just now, do you agree?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t have that much money. You can deduct a part from my salary, but¡­¡± Ye Tong looked at Xie Heze with some hesitation, and then looked pitiful. ¡°This is also my first time. On account of this, can you reduce it a little? After all, speaking of this matter, you actually don¡¯t lose out, do you¡­¡± Xie Heze saw the change in Ye Tong¡¯s expression and was suddenly in a good mood. Hence, he nodded in agreement and said, ¡°I agree to this matter. It¡¯s not impossible, but there¡¯s a condition.¡± ¡°What condition?!¡± Seeing that Xie Heze agreed, Ye Tong¡¯s eyes began to shine. ¡°I¡¯ll charge you a certain amount of interest.¡± Xie Heze did not know what was wrong with him. He would not do something like this before. On the day of their wedding, Xie Heze even personally told Ye Tong that from that moment onwards, they would not interfere with each other. The two of them shouldn¡¯t have anything to do with each other. But now, Xie Heze couldn¡¯t help but want to get close to Ye Tong. Ye Tong¡¯s face fell when she heard that. Xie Heze was already so rich and was a big CEO. How could he still value the interest? However, since Xie Heze had already given in, Ye Tong felt that she could not make too many requests like this. Since that was the case, she could only nod her head and agree. Although she did not know how much the interest was, Ye Tong felt that Xie Heze was a proper CEO of a company. He should not do anything illegal, right? Therefore, she braced herself and said, ¡°Okay, sure. In that case, you can deduct it from my salary in the future. You can take the interest with you!¡± Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong like she was a kitten. She clearly knew that she had done something wrong, but she still had to raise her head to argue. Or rather, she braced herself to make things right. Xie Heze found it funny. He reached out to cover his face. In Ye Tong¡¯s eyes, he looked like he was deep in thought, but in reality, Xie Heze just wanted to use this opportunity to stop himself from laughing. After all, if Xie Heze laughed out loud at such a serious moment, then everything that he had said before would not count. Who knew if Ye Tong, this little wild cat, would explode again. Ye Tong did not know what Xie Heze was thinking. She only saw the man in front of her covering his face as if he was deep in thought, and she felt a wave of goosebumps in her heart. She was really unlucky. How could she have offended such a guy! Especially now that this guy even knew about her relationship with Xie Heze! However, it just so happened! It just so happened that the two of them had a relationship.. If he were to tell Xie Heze about this, the Xie family might do something to her! Chapter 29 - Bargaining Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio As long as she thought of these things, Ye Tong felt extremely bitter in her heart. There was no way to avoid it even if she wanted to. Who asked this fellow to be the CEO here? He seemed to be a fellow that she should not offend, especially since Ye Tong needed this job. Previously, she valued this company. Now, it was because she had to pay back the money! If her job was gone, how could Ye Tong repay the debt she owed? Needless to say, Ye Tong was still worried that this fellow would tell others about what happened that night. Thinking of this, Ye Tong looked at Xie Heze again and said with a frown, ¡°Um, President, I have something to tell you in advance¡­¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Xie Heze raised his eyebrows and looked at Ye Tong. What was this woman thinking about again? ¡°Um, I have already promised you that I can return the money¡­¡± Returned the money? She had never borrowed money from him before. It was a little inappropriate to say that she would return the money. Therefore, Ye Tong paused and continued, ¡°No, I gave you the money. I also promised that I will definitely pay this money off.¡± Paid Off? The corners of Xie Heze¡¯s mouth twitched slightly. What did she mean by paying off? Did she treat him as a commodity? Xie Heze¡¯s face turned slightly dark. However, this woman had yet to discover anything. She continued to speak on her own, ¡°But I hope that you can promise me one thing.¡± ¡°That¡¯s what you should know now. I¡¯m actually married to Xie Heze, so¡­¡± ¡°So what?¡± Xie Heze raised his eyebrows and looked at Ye Tong. If Ye Tong raised her head slightly, she would see that Xie Heze¡¯s eyes were full of mockery. ¡°So I hope that you won¡¯t tell anyone about this. If you want me to give you a certain amount of compensation, it¡¯s not impossible. Therefore, I can also give you a sum of money!¡± ¡°However, it¡¯s not up to you to decide how much this sum of money is to be given. Because if you ask for too much, I won¡¯t have it either. Moreover, both of us were involved in what happened that night. It¡¯s not like I¡¯m the only one enjoying it.¡± Ye Tong pouted and said in an aggrieved manner. When she woke up that morning, Ye Tong even felt that her body was about to fall apart. Even though Ye Tong did not have much of an impression of what she did that night. However, looking at the marks all over her body, Ye Tong could also imagine how intense that night was. Hence, just asking her to fork out money was truly a little overboard. Xie Heze did not expect Ye Tong to say such words. For a moment, he was at a loss for words, too. Ye Tong continued, ¡°Furthermore, I¡¯ve already been bullied to such an extent. I didn¡¯t ask you for money, did I? Therefore, you have to agree to my conditions. What do you think?¡± When Ye Tong said these words, she actually didn¡¯t have much confidence because she wasn¡¯t sure if Xie Heze would agree with her. Looking at Ye Tong¡¯s pitiful appearance, Xie Heze felt that if he continued to tease her, this fellow might directly explode. Hence, he nodded and said, ¡°Alright, I can agree to this.¡± ¡°Thank you, President!¡± Ye Tong¡¯s face was filled with joy. For some reason, Xie Heze actually felt a little unhappy? However, what exactly was he unhappy about? Could it be that he was unhappy that before Ye Tong married him, she went to find a man to sleep with? Yet, wasn¡¯t that man himself? Xie Heze frowned slightly. He didn¡¯t know what was wrong with him. He just looked at the alluring Ye Tong in front of him and was worried that if Ye Tong continued to stay here, he would do something bad.. Chapter 30 - Bad Luck Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Just as Xie Heze waved his hand and was about to let Ye Tong leave, he saw Ye Tong look at him carefully and said, ¡°President, do you have anything else? Have we already settled this matter? If that¡¯s the case, if there¡¯s nothing else, I¡¯ll be going out.¡± Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong¡¯s innocent and nervous expression and a trace of warmth could not help but appear in his eyes. Even Xie Heze himself did not realize how gentle the gaze was when he was looking at Ye Tong at that moment. Xie Heze nodded and said, ¡°You can leave now.¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Hearing that, Ye Tong immediately turned around and opened the door with lightning speed. From the looks of it, it seemed like there was some kind of ferocious beast behind her. It was as if she was worried that if she stayed here for a while longer, Xie Heze would say something again, or perhaps he would do something to her. Seeing this, Xie Heze also felt a wave of helplessness in his heart. After Ye Tong left, the faint fragrance of Ye Tong¡¯s body was still lingering in the air. This woman had such a side. It was really interesting. However, when he saw Ye Tong, he couldn¡¯t help but feel a little hot in his heart. He waited until after Ye Tong left, but Xie Heze was still suppressing this emotion. What was going on? It was rare for Xie Heze to lose control of his emotions like this. However, when he held Ye Tong in his arms just now, Xie Heze really had that thought and wanted to execute Ye Tong on the spot. Initially, Xie Heze thought that this new wife was definitely here for the family¡¯s money. However, he did not expect that it was slightly different from what he had thought. Xie Heze¡¯s original plan also deviated a little because of this. It seemed that he could not be like what he had initially said and not interfere with Ye Tong. After Ye Tong came out, she could not help but pat her small chest. The things that happened every day were really exciting. She never thought that she would meet the fellow that night here. Ye Tong was regretful for a moment. If she had known earlier, she would have gone to take a look at this man¡¯s appearance before she left. Then, she would not have met this fellow on this day and still not recognized who he was. If she knew that this was the person who slept with her the night before, Ye Tong would definitely have taken a detour and gone far away when she saw him, and the following things would not have happened. Ye Tong thought of a saying. One might even choke when he swallowed cold water when he was unlucky. First, she lost her first time for no reason. Then, she was threatened to replace Ye Yuechang to get married. Ye Tong tolerated all of this. However, she thought that things had taken a turn for the better with great difficulty. And that fellow, Xie Heze said that he would not come and have anything to do with her. She had even come to work at the company that she wanted. However, who would have thought that she would meet a great plague here! Ye Tong patted her cheeks and comforted herself. It was alright. She had already agreed with Xie Heze that he would not tell this matter to a third person. This was already enough. No matter what, this fellow was still a big CEO. He would not go back on his words when he had promised someone. Thinking of this, Ye Tong could be considered to be a lot more at ease. Next, Ye Tong was worried that Xie Heze would come and find trouble with her again. However, things were not as she thought. Xie Heze did not come to look for her anymore and Ye Tong could settle down and handle her work here. This made Ye Tong sigh in relief.. Chapter 31 - Why Was He Here Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Tong left early after finishing her work. Looking at her appearance, it seemed like something was chasing after her. When Ye Tong returned to the Xie family¡¯s villa, she returned to her room after having her meal like before. To be precise, it was her and Xie Heze¡¯s wedding room. Since Xie Heze came to her room to talk to her and left after that, this room was naturally treated by Ye Tong as her place to live. She was also carefree in this room. When she didn¡¯t meet Xie Heze, Ye Tong felt even more relaxed. However, what made Ye Tong curious was that Xie Heze seemed to have always been in another room on the third floor. The second floor was the place where Ye Tong usually lived. Moreover, it seemed that Xie Heze and Ye Tong weren¡¯t the only ones living here. Looking at the corridor upstairs, a trace of curiosity appeared in Ye Tong¡¯s eyes. However, Ye Tong also knew that curiosity killed the cat. The fact that Xie Heze did not come to find Ye Tong was already a great thing for Ye Tong. Therefore, according to Xie Heze¡¯s original request, she could just live here by herself. After Ye Tong washed up, she was ready to go to bed. Recalling that she met that fellow during the day, Ye Tong shook her head. She did not know if she would still dream about him that night. Was it because she always dreamed about that guy in her dreams that she met him during the day? Now, Ye Tong finally knew what that guy looked like. Since she knew that he was her CEO, she would have to be more careful when she went to work in the future. To be honest, Ye Tong really didn¡¯t want to have anything to do with this guy because Ye Tong¡¯s current identity was Xie Heze¡¯s wife. Even if Xie Heze said that the two of them wouldn¡¯t interfere with each other, if Ye Tong really did something, or if the Xie family found out that she had slept with a man before this, then¡­ They would probably be furious, right? Just thinking about it made Ye Tong¡¯s heart tremble, and she even felt a chill. ¡°Click.¡± A soft sound was heard. Ye Tong hurriedly sat up from the bed. She frowned and looked at the door in bewilderment. That sound just now seemed to be someone turning the doorknob? But after Ye Tong sat up, there was no more movement. Could it be that she had heard wrongly? Ye Tong¡¯s brows furrowed slightly. She suspected that she had heard wrongly or something. Bang, bang, bang. However, just as Ye Tong was about to lie down to sleep again, she suddenly heard a series of knocks on the door. Ye Tong¡¯s heart skipped a beat. What was going on? Who was knocking on the door? If it was before, there wouldn¡¯t be any servants disturbing her at this time. Because Ye Tong had already locked the door from the inside, the people outside couldn¡¯t enter. Even so, Ye Tong still felt a little uneasy. Could it be Xie Heze? However, this shouldn¡¯t be the case. At that time, Xie Heze had clearly told her that they wouldn¡¯t interfere with each other in the future. It hadn¡¯t even been a few days, so could it be that he was going back on his word? Hence, Ye Tong frowned and looked in the direction of the door. She said warily, ¡°Who is it? Is there anything? I¡¯m going to sleep.¡± There was no movement outside the door, as if no one was knocking at all. However, after a short period of silence, a deep voice came from outside the door, ¡°It¡¯s me.¡± When she heard this voice, Ye Tong instantly felt her hands and feet go cold. A chill surged up from her back to her skull. Xie Heze?! Why was he here?! Chapter 32 - Entering the Bedroom Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio A few nights ago, Ye Tong did not hear any sound. Xie Heze had never appeared either. He would not even be with Ye Tong during dinner. Ye Tong was already used to being alone. But at this moment, she suddenly heard Xie Heze¡¯s voice? Xie Heze was standing outside the door?! Ye Tong¡¯s vigilance instantly rose, and the last trace of sleepiness instantly vanished without a trace. Ye Tong¡¯s voice was a little hoarse as she said, ¡°You, what are you doing here? Don¡¯t tell me you¡¯re going to sleep here?¡± ¡°Yup.¡± A light voice drifted over from outside the door. No emotions could be heard, but it made Ye Tong fall from heaven to Hell in an instant. Ye Tong¡¯s little face was pale with fear. To be honest, Ye Tong¡¯s heart was actually a little broken at that particular moment, and she couldn¡¯t even accept it for a while. She wasn¡¯t sure why Xie Heze would suddenly come to sleep for no reason. They had clearly agreed at that time that they wouldn¡¯t interfere in each other¡¯s affairs in the future. Could it be that the dignified young master of the Xie family, Xie Heze, had gone back on his word? Besides, if Xie Heze wanted to sleep here, would it mean that he would have sex with her? Ye Tong suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. However, she was no longer a virgin. What if Xie Heze found out? What would he do then? In addition, all the rumors said that Xie Heze¡¯s temper was actually not that good. Although she didn¡¯t see it at first, no one could guarantee that Xie Heze wouldn¡¯t punish her for it. Ye Tong subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva. There was a trace of panic in her eyes as she looked at the door, not knowing what to do. ¡°Are you going to let me stand outside the door all the time? My¡­ wife?¡± Xie Heze¡¯s voice came from outside the door again. This time, when he spoke, there was a trace of playfulness in his voice. It seemed that Xie Heze was in a good mood? Ye Tong hesitated for a moment. She knew that she couldn¡¯t just let Xie Heze hang out at the door. After all, the two of them were married. This was also the Xie family¡¯s villa. If she was unwilling to open the door, no one knew if Xie Heze would be suspicious after a long time. Ye Tong took a deep breath to calm herself down. Then, she slowly walked to the door. ¡°Click.¡± With a sound, the door opened. Ye Tong held onto her drowsiness nervously. Even though she tried her best to keep herself calm, her heart was still pounding like a deer. Xie Heze stood outside the door. Just like before, he was still wearing a mask. Ye Tong felt he was a little weak, but even so, Ye Tong could still feel a faint sense of pressure from Xie Heze. Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong in front of him. It was the same as when he saw her in the day. The current Ye Tong seemed to have just taken a bath. Her hair was still a little moist, and her skin looked white with a tinge of red. It was like a peach that made people want to take a bite. There was a hint of nervousness and helplessness at the corners of her eyes. Xie Heze¡¯s eyes were filled with a smile when he looked at her. Ye Tong probably did not expect him to suddenly visit her like this. ¡°Why? Are you going to stand here forever?¡± When Xie Heze spoke, there was a trace of a smile in his voice. It was obvious that he was in a very good mood. Ye Tong¡¯s delicate brows furrowed slightly. After hearing Xie Heze¡¯s words, she suddenly reacted and hurriedly stood to the side. Then, she watched helplessly as the man walked into the room.. Chapter 33 - Came Over and Lied Down Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The room was so quiet that Ye Tong could hear her own heartbeat. She watched as Xie Heze walked to the bedside naturally and then sat down on the bed. Then, he turned to look at her. That powerful aura pressed down on Ye Tong so much that she couldn¡¯t breathe. When she faced Xie Heze, other than feeling a little nervous, Ye Tong actually felt a little guilty. This was her husband who had been married to her, but she¡­ had cuckolded Xie Heze before the wedding¡­ Especially when she noticed Xie Heze¡¯s gaze on her face, it was as if he could directly see the depths of Ye Tong¡¯s heart through her outer appearance. This made Ye Tong feel a wave of nervousness. ¡°Why? Don¡¯t tell me you plan on standing there forever? Come here and lie down.¡± Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong. His magnetic voice sounded, but it made Ye Tong shudder. Ye Tong pursed her lips and looked at Xie Heze awkwardly. Looking at his posture, it seemed like he had made up his mind to sleep here with her at night. Ye Tong could not help but stretch out her hand to pull at her pajamas. She was secretly glad that she was more conservative. That was why she found such tightly wrapped pajamas in the closet when she was sleeping. Ye Tong silently walked to the bedside. Then, she carefully laid down and closed her eyes tightly. It seemed that only this way could she feel slightly more at ease. In Xie Heze¡¯s eyes, Ye Tong¡¯s entire body was tensed up. Her small hands were tightly clutching the quilt on her body. It was like a string that had been pulled tightly. Her long eyelashes were like butterflies, gently trembling. It could be seen just how nervous Ye Tong was because of Xie Heze¡¯s arrival. Xie Heze did not speak. He only used his gaze to carefully outline Ye Tong¡¯s appearance, the corners of his mouth curling up. Little fellow, you knew fear at this moment? Didn¡¯t you look very powerful that night? After Ye Tong laid down, Xie Heze did not speak. Ye Tong also remained silent. Only the sound of their even breathing could be heard in the air. However, this kind of feeling made Ye Tong feel extremely tormented. It was as if she was a criminal who was about to be pushed to the guillotine. The air seemed to be extremely stifling, especially when Xie Heze was beside her. Ye Tong could even feel Xie Heze¡¯s eyes darting around her face. What was Xie Heze thinking? Why was he looking at her and not saying a word? Could it be that he knew about the things she had done? All sorts of guesses surfaced in Ye Tong¡¯s mind, but no matter which one it was, it made Ye Tong¡¯s heart feel like ants were crawling over it. It was extremely torturous. After that, Ye Tong seemed to feel Xie Heze beside her move. He lifted the blanket and slowly laid down. This made Ye Tong, who was already tense, feel as if there was a thread in her brain that was about to break. She did not dare to speak. Because of this kind of atmosphere, Ye Tong¡¯s palms were even covered in a layer of hot sweat. Ye Tong silently prayed in her heart that after Xie Heze laid down like this, he would not move and would directly sleep. He must not do anything to her. However, the heavens seemed to have not heard Ye Tong¡¯s prayers at all. While Ye Tong silently prayed in her heart that Xie Heze must not do anything to her, suddenly, she felt a pair of large hands at her waist. The heat coming from the hands caused Ye Tong¡¯s entire body to tremble. Following that, this pair of large hands pulled Ye Tong¡¯s entire body into his embrace! Chapter 34 - As Expected... Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio At this moment, Ye Tong could no longer continue acting like this. She suddenly opened her eyes and turned around to push Xie Heze away. ¡°Young¡­ Young Master Xie¡­¡± Ye Tong¡¯s voice trembled as she said these words. She looked at Xie Heze with a trace of fear in her eyes. When Ye Tong turned around, what she saw was still a mask. Even when he was sleeping, Xie Heze did not take off this mask. Ye Tong felt that it was probably because Xie Heze really cared about his appearance. That incident made Xie Heze unable to face such a person. Hence, he was unwilling to take off his mask? Of course, it could also be because he was worried that Ye Tong would see his appearance. In any case, what Ye Tong needed to resolve was everything that was happening in front of her. Xie Heze¡¯s eyes were as dark as ink. Deep within his eyes, there was a layer of love. Xie Heze did not know what had happened to him. Whenever he met Ye Tong, it was as if he had met a poppy. He subconsciously wanted to sink into it, wanting to press the woman in front of him under his body. Looking at her crying appearance, the current Xie Heze had already forgotten what he had said to Ye Tong back in the wedding room. Ye Tong felt as if the place where she had touched Xie Heze just now had been set on fire. Even at this moment, there was still a faint fever. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Xie Heze¡¯s voice was hoarse, with a rare trace of gentleness. Ye Tong gulped and then looked at Xie Heze and mustered up her courage to say, ¡°Hmm¡­¡± ¡°Young Master Xie, What¡¯s wrong with you? Didn¡¯t we agree back then that you wouldn¡¯t sleep here and that we wouldn¡¯t interfere with each other? Why are you¡­¡± ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± The corners of Xie Heze¡¯s lips curled up as he looked at Ye Tong¡¯s blushing face and incoherent speech. He found it amusing. ¡°Why did you suddenly come here? Moreover, you, even¡­¡± Ye Tong really didn¡¯t know how to continue speaking. Those words really made Ye Tong feel a little ashamed. In addition, Ye Tong was still unsure if Xie Heze came here to do that kind of thing with her. ¡°We¡¯re husband and wife at the very first place. Isn¡¯t it a very normal thing for me to come here and sleep with you? Why, don¡¯t you want to?¡± A hoarse voice rang out. Ye Tong couldn¡¯t figure out Xie Heze¡¯s tone for a moment, and she wasn¡¯t sure if he was dissatisfied with her words. Moreover, what did Xie Heze mean by his words at this moment?! If it wasn¡¯t for her cowardice, Ye Tong would have slapped the table and gotten up. After all, his identity in this place was very clear. Although the two of them were indeed married, it was also normal for Xie Heze to come to the wedding room. However, didn¡¯t they already agree? Was Xie Heze regretting it now? He even went so far as to regret it as if he didn¡¯t feel that there was anything wrong with his actions at all. Moreover, where did Xie Heze get the confidence to ask her if she was willing? For sure, she won¡¯t be willing! Moreover, wasn¡¯t Xie Heze¡¯s body rumored to be very weak? If he still did such a thing, wouldn¡¯t he worry that his body wouldn¡¯t be able to take it? However, Ye Tong didn¡¯t have the courage to say such straightforward words. Hence, Ye Tong could only squeeze out an ugly smile as she looked at Xie Heze and said with a smile. ¡°However, Young Master Xie, isn¡¯t your body relatively weak? I think it is better for you¡­¡± Yet, Ye Tong was interrupted by Xie Heze before she could finish her sentence. ¡°Call me hubby..¡± Chapter 35 - Was Not Allowed Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xie Heze¡¯s deep voice sounded, ¡°Furthermore, how did you know that my body was not working well?¡± Wasn¡¯t Ye Tong the one who should be the most aware of whether his body was working or not? If he was really too weak, then how could he make Ye Tong cry and say no that night? Ye Tong¡¯s tongue almost popped out when she heard Xie Heze¡¯s sudden words. Hus¡­ Husband?! What was going on with Xie Heze? He didn¡¯t look like the same person when she saw him back then. What was wrong with him? Was he crazy? Earlier, he had told her that they should not interfere with each others¡¯ lives. However, at this moment, he came to the room and asked Ye Tong to call him hubby? Could it be that this Xie Heze wasn¡¯t just physically incapable? He had schizophrenia? It was really difficult for Ye Tong to associate this fellow with the person she saw back then. Seeing that there seemed to be a hint of displeasure in Xie Heze¡¯s eyes, Ye Tong hurriedly explained, ¡°No, the outside world has always said Young Master Xie¡­¡± Before she could finish her sentence, she saw that Xie Heze¡¯s eyes were fixated on her. Ye Tong quickly changed her words and said, ¡°Hu¡­ Hubby, the rumors say that your health isn¡¯t that good and that you¡¯re relatively weak.¡± After Ye Tong said this, her face instantly turned red to the root of her neck. Xie Heze raised his eyebrows. Because Ye Tong called him ¡®Hubby¡¯, Xie Heze felt a little better. He had forgotten that he had actually been acting as a weak person in the outside world. Many reckoned that he wouldn¡¯t have much time left. Following that, the corners of Xie Heze¡¯s mouth twitched. He went forward and pulled Ye Tong into his embrace. He even flipped over and pressed her under his body. Ye Tong was so frightened by this sudden action that her mind was a little muddled. What was going on? Who was going to tell her! It was already said that Xie Heze¡¯s body was relatively weak. Why did he have to make a move? Could it be that he wanted to prove it in front of her? Ye Tong felt that this guess was very likely. After all, didn¡¯t all men dislike people saying that they were weak? For a moment, Ye Tong also wished that she could give herself a big slap. Why did she have to say that he was weak when he was fine? Now that he was fine, not only did she not manage to stop him, he even became even more enthusiastic. Seeing that Xie Heze was about to touch her, Ye Tong felt goosebumps all over her body. Ye Tong was so scared that she hurriedly reached out to stop the big hand that was wantonly moving around her body. ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Tong saw that Xie Heze¡¯s eyes were already filled with a hint of displeasure. Ye Tong hurriedly said, ¡°No, hmm¡­ Hubby, I don¡¯t think we can do it like this¡­¡± Ye Tong¡¯s voice started to become knotted as she spoke. She was so anxious that her head was covered in a layer of sweat. What if Xie Heze found out that this was not her first time? What would she do then? Ye Tong wanted to cry, but no tears came out. She anxiously said, ¡°Hubby, I think we should focus on your health. What do you think? Of course, this kind of thing can continue even in the future. What do you think?¡± Ye Tong felt that what she said was flawless. She did not show that she was actually unwilling to have sex with Xie Heze but also showed that she cared about him. She believed that Xie Heze would not be angry if she said that, right? After all, no matter what, he had to consider his own body first. If Xie Heze continued to carry on like this, it would really be a little inappropriate.. Chapter 36 - Long Way to Go Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Tong held Xie Heze¡¯s hand. She looked at Xie Heze with a sincere expression and said, ¡°Hubby, we still have a long time in the future, don¡¯t we? There¡¯s no need to rush at this moment.¡± ¡°When your body recovers in the future, it¡¯s not impossible for us to continue. What do you think? If your body is burdened even more because of this labor, won¡¯t it be my responsibility?¡± As she spoke, Ye Tong even looked at Xie Heze with heartache. Those who didn¡¯t know would really think that Ye Tong was concerned for Xie Heze. However, how could Xie Heze not know what this woman was thinking in her heart? It was just that when Xie Heze saw Ye Tong acting like a mischievous person in order to deceive him, he couldn¡¯t bear to expose her acting skills. Xie Heze knew that Ye Tong was worried that he would find out that she was not a virgin. However, what Ye Tong did not know was that Ye Tong¡¯s first time was also given to him. Hence, Xie Heze did not care about this matter at all. However, Ye Tong did not think so. She probably felt that if Xie Heze found out about this matter, she would not be able to bear the consequences? Xie Heze looked at Ye Tong with a playful look. Because he was wearing a mask, Ye Tong could not see the trace of a wicked smile on his face. Seeing that Xie Heze did not speak, Ye Tong¡¯s heart was in her throat. If she still could not stop Xie Heze, then Ye Tong really did not know what to do. ¡°Hubby¡­ What do you think?¡± Ye Tong blinked her big eyes and looked at Xie Heze, trying to use her sincerity to move him. Xie Heze took a deep breath and suppressed the agitation in his heart. Then, he turned over and lay beside Ye Tong, slowly saying, ¡°You are right. I think what you said makes sense.¡± ¡°After all, we have plenty of time in the future.¡± Ye Tong finally relaxed when she saw this. She finally managed to fool him. She was scared to death just now. As long as Xie Heze didn¡¯t agree, Ye Tong didn¡¯t know what to do. Xie Heze saw that the moment he said this, Ye Tong¡¯s originally tense body instantly relaxed. This made Xie Heze feel that it was very interesting. However, looking at Ye Tong¡¯s relaxed appearance, Xie Heze¡¯s heart faintly felt a little unhappy. Could it be that this little fellow felt that her acting skills were very good? Therefore, to make Ye Tong remain nervous, Xie Heze continued, ¡°In order for you to not have to wait for so long, I will use the shortest amount of time to recuperate my body.¡± ¡°Let you lead a happy life as soon as possible, and also prevent you from worrying about me like this. What do you think?¡± The moment Ye Tong heard these words, her body tensed up once again. She did not have such intentions. Ye Tong was about to cry. She did not feel that she had waited for too long or anything. If it was possible, Ye Tong hoped that Xie Heze¡¯s body would not recuperate at all. Then, Ye Tong would not have to face such a difficult situation. Hence, Ye Tong hurriedly held Xie Heze¡¯s hand and fawned over him. ¡°No, you can take your time to recuperate. After all, such matters cannot be rushed. What do you think?¡± ¡°We can actually take our time. Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t feel any dissatisfaction. Furthermore, I¡¯m already very happy now.. Really!¡± Chapter 37 - Rested Early Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Looking at Ye Tong¡¯s sincere appearance, Xie Heze felt a burst of amusement. Xie Heze discreetly held Ye Tong¡¯s small hand in his own. Then, he pulled Ye Tong directly into his embrace. After that, he smiled and said, ¡°You are hinting at me to hurry up? Alright, I¡¯ll work hard.¡± After hearing the voice above her head, Ye Tong even felt like dying. Oh no, Brother, why must he misunderstand her? She really didn¡¯t have such thoughts! ¡°No¡­¡± Before Ye Tong could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Xie Heze. ¡°It¡¯s getting late. You should sleep early. If you aren¡¯t willing to sleep, I don¡¯t mind showing you whether my body is weak or not.¡± Uh¡­ This sentence successfully made Ye Tong shut her mouth. Just like that, she was obediently embraced by Xie Heze. She didn¡¯t even have the intention to struggle anymore. Feeling the boiling heat coming from Xie Heze¡¯s body, Ye Tong felt as if her entire body was on fire. This was the first time she had such intimate contact with a man. Oh, that was not right. It was the second time. The first time was when she experienced it with that fellow. However, to be honest, Ye Tong could no longer remember what happened that night. Hence, she did not have much of an impression or feeling. However, it was different at this moment. She could clearly feel the heat coming from Xie Heze¡¯s body. The deep wood fragrance coming from Xie Heze¡¯s body made Ye Tong feel that it was vaguely familiar. However, at this moment, Ye Tong felt that her brain couldn¡¯t process it. Even though she felt that it was familiar, she didn¡¯t think too much about it. It was probably the same smell on men¡¯s bodies? Ye Tong¡¯s hand wanted to push Xie Heze away, but she touched Xie Heze¡¯s firm muscles. When she touched those muscles, Ye Tong felt a wave of shyness. She hurriedly withdrew her hand, not even daring to move. At the same time, a question arose in Ye Tong¡¯s heart. Wasn¡¯t it said that Xie Heze¡¯s body was actually very weak? But if that was the case, why would Xie Heze have such firm muscles on his body? This shouldn¡¯t have appeared on the body of a guy who had been sick for a long time. What on earth was going on? Ye Tong felt that there was something wrong with everything¡­ It seemed like Xie Heze was slightly different from what she had heard from the rumors. Xie Heze didn¡¯t know what the little woman in his arms was thinking. However, compared to Ye Tong¡¯s nervous look, Xie Heze looked much more relaxed, even with a hint of satisfaction. After an unknown amount of time had passed, Ye Tong thought that Xie Heze had fallen asleep. Hence, she carefully tried to remove his arms from her body. However, she did not expect to hear a hoarse voice coming from above her head. ¡°Are you not going to sleep? Otherwise, shall we continue with what happened just now?¡± The moment she heard this, Ye Tong¡¯s mind buzzed. He, he, he¡­ Why wasn¡¯t he asleep yet! Initially, she thought that Xie Heze was already asleep, but she did not expect him to still be awake. For a moment, she did not dare to move anymore and just stayed there obediently. Seeing that the woman in his arms had become obedient, the corners of Xie Heze¡¯s mouth curled up. He casually took off the mask on his face. It was really uncomfortable to sleep with this thing on.. Chapter 38 - Thought of a Way Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Tong did not know when she fell asleep last night, but by the time she woke up the next day, Xie Heze was already gone. Thinking of what happened last night, Ye Tong felt a wave of fear. Fortunately, she was smart enough to find an excuse to get rid of Xie Heze. Otherwise, if this continued, the outcome would be very miserable. Ye Tong felt extremely fortunate in her heart and patted her chest. However, when she thought of what Xie Heze said, there was still plenty of time in the future, Ye Tong once again found herself in a difficult situation. It was not a good thing for this matter to drag on. Just like what Xie Heze said, there was still a lot of time in the future, although she could use this excuse to decline at this moment, however, to be honest, Ye Tong felt that Xie Heze¡¯s body did not look very weak. In other words, having sex should not be a problem. Hence, this excuse wouldn¡¯t be able to last long. If Xie Heze wanted to continue in the future, what excuse could Ye Tong come up with? It was fine to decline once, but it would probably not work after two or three times. After all, Xie Heze and Ye Tong were married. The two of them were husband and wife. It was very normal for them to fulfill their obligations as husband and wife. If Ye Tong continued to decline, Xie Heze might get angry. Sigh¡­ Ye Tong frowned and started to feel troubled. If this happened in the future, what should she do? Ye Tong thought to herself. Otherwise, should she go for an operation? Would it be better for her to find an opportunity to restore her virginity? In that case, even if she continued to do that kind of thing with Xie Heze in the future, Ye Tong did not have to worry about whether Xie Heze would discover her. Yes. Ye Tong felt that this was a solution. After making up her mind, Ye Tong planned to find a time to take a look and if it was convenient, she would go for an operation. Therefore, on this day, Ye Tong took a rare day off for herself. When this matter reached Xie Heze¡¯s ears, he was a little surprised. Why did Ye Tong suddenly take a day off all of a sudden? Hence, Xie Heze immediately contacted the butler. ¡°Where¡¯s Ye Tong? Is she at home?¡± ¡°Young Master, Young Madam is at home, but she seems to be preparing to go out now.¡± Xie Heze tapped his fingers on the table and said, ¡°Find an opportunity to follow her and see where she goes. Then, tell me her whereabouts.¡± After saying this, Xie Heze hung up the phone. He got up and walked to the window. Looking at the traffic outside, his expression was unfathomable. No one knew what he was thinking. Buzz¡­ Then, Xie Heze¡¯s phone vibrated. Xie Heze took it out and saw that it was a message from the butler regarding Ye Tong. After seeing the location shown on the screen, Xie Heze¡¯s eyes were filled with surprise. After putting away his phone, Xie Heze strode out of the office. There was a trace of unconcealable worry in his eyes, causing everyone in the office to cry out in surprise when they saw it. Who was it that could make the big CEO, who didn¡¯t have any expression on his face all day, reveal such a worried look? For a moment, everyone in the office began to discuss among themselves. They were curious about the relationship between this person and Xie Heze. Could it be that this person was Xie Heze¡¯s girlfriend or something? Xie Heze did not know that they were discussing him, but Xie Heze did not care about these things anymore. The only thing he wanted to know at this moment was why Ye Tong would suddenly go to the hospital when she was fine? Could it be that she was injured? However, looking at Ye Tong last night, she seemed to be full of energy. She did not seem to be feeling unwell anywhere.. Chapter 39 - Enemies on a Narrow Road Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ye Tong sneakily came to the hospital. Before she came, she did not dare to tell the butler why she was there. After all, such a thing was not honorable. If the Xie family knew about it, it would not be good. Therefore, it was best that the fewer people who knew about it, the better. However, there was a good saying that the more afraid one was towards an event, the higher the possibility for that event to take place. Ye Tong felt that she had already wrapped herself up tightly enough. However, she still met the person she did not want to see the most. It was her boss, the CEO! The moment she saw Xie Heze, Ye Tong¡¯s heart skipped a beat. She quickly turned around. ¡°Oh no, oh no. It¡¯s really a narrow road for enemies. Why can I meet this God of Plague everywhere?!¡± As she spoke, she anxiously walked towards the stairwell, wanting to hide from Xie Heze. However, it was already too late, because Xie Heze had already seen Ye Tong. He came here for Ye Tong. Hence, when he saw Ye Tong turn around, he also took large strides and chased after her. ¡°Hey, what are you doing here instead of going to work?¡± When she heard the voice behind her, Ye Tong¡¯s body stiffened. Then, she squeezed out a smile as she looked at Xie Heze and said with a smile, ¡°President, I¡¯ve applied for leave.¡± She had already taken a leave of absence, so how could she go to work? How could they squeeze people! Xie Heze frowned and sized Ye Tong up. When he saw that Ye Tong did not feel uncomfortable, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he saw a note in Ye Tong¡¯s hand. It seemed to be a registration form. Xie Heze frowned and said, ¡°What is this? Why are you here at the hospital?¡± Upon hearing Xie Heze¡¯s words, Ye Tong hurriedly put the note behind her back and even clenched it tightly, as if she was afraid that Xie Heze would snatch it away. At the same time, an embarrassed and annoyed expression appeared on her face, as if she was very angry that Xie Heze had found out about her. This made Xie Heze even more curious. He raised his head to look around and realized that this was the gynecology department. ¡°You came here to see a doctor? What¡¯s wrong with you?¡± ¡°It has nothing to do with you. This is my own business. You don¡¯t have to care about it. If you come here to see a doctor, then leave quickly.¡± Ye Tong looked at Xie Heze in embarrassment. If Xie Heze found out what she was doing here, then she would really be too ashamed to face anyone. ¡°Oh?¡± Xie Heze raised his eyebrows and looked at Ye Tong. ¡°Do you not want to intern anymore? Could it be that you¡¯ve forgotten what our relationship is?¡± ¡°You!¡± Ye Tong was so angry that she gritted her teeth, but there was nothing she could do. After all, she was working for Xie Heze. Therefore, Ye Tong could only squeeze out a smile, she gritted her teeth and said, ¡°President, I still have something to do. Moreover, President, if you have something to do, you can go and get busy. After all, President¡¯s time is so precious. I won¡¯t delay it.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. I have plenty of time. No matter what, you¡¯re my employee. In addition, the two of us still have that layer of relationship. I¡¯m also worried about you coming here alone to see a doctor.¡± Xie Heze shrugged and looked at Ye Tong teasingly. ¡°In that case, I don¡¯t mind taking out my time to accompany you. It¡¯s no problem to accompany you to see a doctor. You don¡¯t have to thank me.¡± ¡°Who needed a company?!¡± Unexpectedly, not only did Ye Tong not thank him, she became even more unhappy. She even looked at Xie Heze as if someone had exposed her embarrassing incident. Indeed, Ye Tong was so embarrassed that her toes could dig out three rooms and a living room on the ground. ¡°President, if you have something to do, please leave quickly, okay? Consider it as I¡¯m begging you,¡± Ye Tong frowned and said anxiously to Xie Heze. They were about to call her name, but this guy was still here and didn¡¯t leave, what should she do. Sure enough, whatever in her mind came to pass. ¡°Ye Tong, please come to Room 5 for treatment..¡± Chapter 40 - Ran Away Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Her name was broadcasted on the radio. It was Ye Tong¡¯s turn. Ye Tong felt like she could not wait to find a hole to hide in. It was neither right nor wrong to go in at the moment. Ye Tong stood where she was and could not move her feet for a moment. However, the radio continued to call out Ye Tong¡¯s name. ¡°Let¡¯s go. I¡¯ll go with you to take a look.¡± As Xie Heze spoke, he pulled Ye Tong towards the direction of Room 5. Even though he did not know what was wrong with this woman, Xie Heze could only be at ease when he saw her with his own eyes. Therefore, Xie Heze pulled Ye Tong¡¯s arm and walked inside. Ye Tong¡¯s heart was anxious, but she did not dare to get angry at Xie Heze. If she was careless and lost her job, it would really be bad. Ye Tong felt that she was about to die from embarrassment. Who would have thought that she would meet Xie Heze when she came here for a surgery? Seeing that she was about to reach the consultation room, Ye Tong suddenly struggled to get away from Xie Heze and ran outside. Ye Tong really could not let her tell the doctor about this repair in front of that guy. Even if she became like this had a lot to do with him. However, the strong sense of shame made Ye Tong unable to face him. Xie Heze was caught off guard and was pushed away by Ye Tong. Looking at Ye Tong running into the distance, Xie Heze¡¯s brows were tightly knitted together. What on earth was going on with this woman? Didn¡¯t she say that she was here to see a doctor? Why did she still run away? Xie Heze¡¯s brows were slightly knitted together. He glanced at the consultation room behind him and walked in without hesitation. At this time, a middle-aged woman in her forties or fifties was sitting in the consultation room. When she saw a man walking in front of her. She also frowned slightly and said, ¡°Are you the patient¡¯s family member?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Xie Heze nodded. Unexpectedly, when the doctor heard this, she frowned and said unhappily, ¡°Since you¡¯re the patient¡¯s family member, I guess you know what she¡¯s here for?¡± ¡°Young man, you¡¯re already boyfriend and girlfriend. Don¡¯t mind this kind of thing so much. It doesn¡¯t matter even if the girl isn¡¯t a virgin. There¡¯s no need to ask your girlfriend to come here for a repair surgery.¡± ¡°Actually, it doesn¡¯t matter whether she has that layer of membrane or not. It is already the 21st century. It¡¯s not like everyone would bleed during her first time, understand?¡± When Xie Heze heard these words, his mind was a little muddled. When he understood what the doctor said, he also understood what was going on. This woman actually wanted to come here to perform surgery in order to prevent him from discovering that matter? Of course, Xie Heze knew that it was Ye Tong¡¯s first time. It was because of this that Xie Heze was so interested in Ye Tong. When he woke up in the morning and saw the glaring blood stains on the bed sheet, to be honest, Xie Heze was surprised. This was because Xie Heze did not expect that such a thing would actually happen at this time. After figuring out what was going on, Xie Heze¡¯s expression instantly darkened. Thinking about it, the reason why Ye Tong rejected him last night was largely related to this matter, right? For a moment, the powerful aura that came from Xie Heze¡¯s body made the doctors present feel a burst of pressure. Just as she was about to speak, she saw the man in front of her walk out without any hesitation. She could not help but wonder if she had said something wrong just now. ¡°Aiya, this shouldn¡¯t bring any trouble to that little girl, right¡­.¡±
