Chapter 98: In My Arms
Xiao's mother was not sure what Xiao Li's attitude was, and her tone was urgent and confused.
"What am I guilty of? I'm not telling lies, Xiao Li, no matter how much hatred you have for us, Jin Xuan cannot be blamed for all this. You, if you are right..."
Xiao Li listened with a cold expression, completely losing interest in what Xiao's mother said next. He hung up the phone without letting the other party finish.
The evening breeze blew against his face, and Xiao Li stood alone in the garden, as if he wanted to blend in with the dark night.
The next day.
Sunlight penetrated into the room through the gap between the curtains. After Yuanyuan woke up, she climbed onto Ye Shengxiao's bed, held her arm and called her mother.
"Mom, get up soon, the sun is out! Adults who sleep in are not good role models for children!"
Xiao Li sat on the side in a leisurely manner, with a laptop on his lap, and while handling official duties, he motioned for Yuanyuan to be quiet.
"Your mother was drunk last night, let her sleep a little longer."
Yuanyuan pouted her little mouth, "Okay, then I'll wait here for mom to wake up."
Although she said this, Yuanyuan was very active by nature. After a while, she started to play around here and there.
Ye Shengxiao was sleeping soundly, but at this moment, she was woken up by Yuanyuan.
Still a little dazed, she slowly opened her eyes, and the little breast dumplings immediately pounced on her.
"Mom! Are you awake?"
Ye Shengxiao stretched out her left hand to helplessly block Yuanyuan behind her, preventing him from falling off the bed, with a helpless and doting smile on her lips.
"There is no way. Someone came to see my mother early. Can she not wake up?"
Yuanyuan stuck out her tongue when she heard the words, "Mom, do you think Yuanyuan is noisy?"
Oh, this is even more aggrieved.
Ye Shengxiao was so funny that she reached out and touched her round little head.
"No, no, why would mom find Yuanyuan noisy? Come on, help mom get the phone and check what time it is."
Her biological clock was always on time, so she thought it was a little late today, probably around eight o'clock, so she was shocked when she saw ten fifteen on her phone.
"It's already past ten o'clock?"
Yuanyuan didn't have a clear concept of time yet, so she thought about it and nodded.
"Mom, it took me a long time to finish breakfast."
Ye Shengxiao was very stunned. From the corner of her eye, she saw Xiao Li's smiling mouth again, and her face couldn't help but turn red.
"This, that's it. Mom, get up quickly."
Ye Shengxiao said as she stood up and walked into the bathroom.
As the warm water hit her face, Ye Shengxiao felt that the clouds in her mind had dispersed a little. She raised her hand and pressed her temples, trying to recall what happened after she was drunk last night.
At that time, I was in a trance, my consciousness was dim, and my body was weak. After lying on the table for a while, I seemed to have gone out?
But what are you going out for?
Ye Shengxiao frowned and thought for a long time, vaguely remembering that she seemed to have received a courier, but she could no longer remember what happened after that.
Ye Shengxiao sighed, finished washing and changing clothes and walked out, asking Xiao Li who was sitting on the sofa leisurely.
"Did I receive a courier last night?"
Xiao Li's eyes darkened slightly when he heard this, and he remembered Xiao Jinxuan's "big gift" yesterday. A cold look flashed across his face, but his tone was still the same when he spoke, and his expression was not the least bit strange.
"You mean the clothes my aunt sent to Yuanyuan?"
Ye Shengxiao was startled, "Auntie sent clothes to Yuanyuan?"
Xiao Li looked at her confused look and raised the corner of his mouth, "You can't even rush this. It seems like you are really drunk."
There was a faint smile on the corner of the man's mouth, which made his tone sound joking.
Ye Shengxiao's cheeks were hot, and she looked away with evasive eyes.
She muttered in a low voice, "Otherwise, wouldn't it be true drunkenness or fake drunkenness?" As she said this, she felt something was wrong again and raised her eyes to look at the man by the window.
"Did anything else happen after I got drunk last night?" she asked tentatively.
Xiao Li was still the same as before. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows at her and asked, "Other things?"
That expression suddenly became meaningful.
Seeing this, Ye Shengxiao quickly added, "I mean there are other things besides receiving express delivery, don't think wrongly!"
Xiao Li turned around from the window and walked up to Ye Shengxiao. His handsome face was smiling, and his dark eyes were like some kind of magical magnet that captured people's hearts.
"I didn't think wrongly. I don't know who really thought wrongly. It seems that some people are hoping that something will happen."
Ye Shengxiao inexplicably felt a dangerous aura approaching her.
She took two steps back uncomfortably and retorted hastily.
"I have no hope...don't talk nonsense!"
"Really? If you really don't have any thoughts in your heart, who was it that stayed in my arms last night and refused to let go?"
Ye Shengxiao's eyes widened when she heard this, and she looked at the man in front of her in disbelief.
"Are you talking about me? Staying in your arms and refusing to leave?"
Xiao Li smiled half-heartedly, "What else?"
Ye Shengxiao turned to stone on the spot, and for a moment, the roots of her ears gradually turned red.
She really had no memory of what happened last night, and subconsciously she didn't believe what really happened between her and Xiao Li, but the other person's expression was so intriguing that she began to doubt herself again.
Could it be that something indescribable happened between her and Xiao Li when she broke up?
Oh my God!
Ye Shengxiao was shocked when she thought of this, and she was so annoyed that she wished she could go back in time to last night.
If she had known that the situation was developing in an uncontrollable direction, she would not have touched that bottle of red wine anyway!
Why is this? Although Xiao Li has an outstanding figure and handsome features, it is not the first time that he has seen her. There is no reason to be like those nymphomaniac little girls and stay in her arms...
Ye Shengxiao was very desperate, thinking that no matter how drunk she was, she would not be so greedy for Xiao Li's appearance, but she really couldn't find any other reason to excuse what she did.
In embarrassment, Ye Shengxiao turned around and ran out of the room with a red face.
…
Xiao Li had been in a good mood for several days, so much so that the senior executives who had gone to Yejia to work as coolies could clearly feel that their boss was in a happy mood recently.
While the originally fearful senior executives relaxed a little from the pressure, they were also wondering what caused their boss's good mood, and his usually cold and stern face became softer.
The executives who came to Yejia for a meeting that day met Yuanyuan in the garden. Their eyes lit up, and they stepped forward to inquire about the young master who was playing with mud attentively.
