Hai Xiaotang nodded, âHmm, itâs something like that.â
Dongfang Yu candidly said, âJust treat their words as if they were farting, donât pay attention to them!â
How could she ignore them so easilyâ¦
If she hadnât come today, she wouldnât have known the severity of the situation.
Everyone in the family is against him now.
For some reason, Hai Xiaotang recalls the last time, at the Dongfang Mansion. The whole family was against them being together, but Dongfang Yu was very firm in his refusal back then.
Now, her very existence threatened the survival of the company, as well as his position.
Still, he refusedâ¦
Hai Xiaotang was deeply touched and distressed.
Especially upon seeing the blue stubble on his chin, and his slightly tired face.
She knew he must not have rested last nightâ¦
After finally finishing with the inspectors, the family began to make trouble. Dongfang Yu seemed to be having a really hard time.
Hai Xiaotang didnât want to say anything. She reached out and touched his face. âAre you tired? You didnât sleep last night, did you?â
Dongfang Yu was slightly startled!
He thought she would bring up the topic of divorce. Unexpectedly, she asked this instead.
Hai Xiaotangâs question warmed his heart.
Dongfang Yu hugged her all of a sudden and said just like a child, âI am tired, but Iâm not tired when I see you.â
Hai Xiaotang gently patted his back, suggesting, âHow about you rest now? Iâll stay with you!â
âOkay!â Dongfang Yu agreed readily.
They went to rest in the rooftop lounge.
However, Dongfang Yu didnât want to sleep as he didnât want to close his eyes with Hai Xiaotang by his side.
Hai Xiaotang covered his eyes with her hands, not letting him continue staring at her.
âQuickly go to sleep, or I will ignore you!â
Dongfang Yu immediately grabbed her hand, pretending to be angry, âHai Xiaotang, youâre getting brave, threatening me!â
Hai Xiaotang giggled, âYes, Iâm threatening you⦠so are you going to sleep now?â
âIf I get a kiss, Iâll sleep,â Dongfang Yu seized the opportunity to request.
Hai Xiaotang quickly leaned down and kissed him. Dongfang Yu was caught off guard.
âAlright, now sleep!â She cleared her throat and commanded.
Dongfang Yu chuckled, although he couldnât see, he knew she must be blushing.
He didnât expose her, obediently closing his eyes.
âWife, remember not to leave, wait for me to wake up,â he whispered in a low voice.
âOkay,â Hai Xiaotang softy replied. Only then did Dongfang Yu fall asleep peacefully.
He must be really tired, he fell asleep very quickly.
Hai Xiaotang watched him in his peaceful sleep, finding it hard to take her eyes off him.
She thought Dongfang Yu looked really handsome. He seemed to have longer eyelashes than her, and his nose stood outâ¦
Hai Xiaotang admiringly stared at him, canât help but traced his deep features in the air as they captivated her more and more.
If it was in the past, she would never dare to imagine having such a loving time with Dongfang Yu.
Who would have thought that the person who was least likely to fall in love with her in this world has now become the person who loves her the mostâ¦
Suddenly, Hai Xiaotang realized. Being reborn once, even if she couldnât get rid of him, but being able to earn his love made it worthwhile.
It was indeed worthwhile in this life.
â¦
Dongfang Yu didnât wake up until noon.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he didnât see Hai Xiaotang.
He suddenly sat upright and called out in a deep voice, âHai Xiaotangâ ââ
