Mo Jiangye followed his wife closely.
The girl who was kneeling on the snowy ground immediately retreated to the side, too scared to move or look at Ye Erruo when she saw her master appear at the door.
âWhat happened?â The woman walked over to the snow-covered field as she directed this question at the butler.
âYoung Madam, this servant is being punished for making a mistake.â The butler explained quickly.
âPunished?â She looked up and gazed at her man.
The butler jumped in to explain further. âIt has nothing to do with Young Master. She is being punished for her incompetence, thatâs all.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHow long has she been kneeling there?â
âAbout t-two to three hours.â
âYou better get her into the house. She may get ill if she continues to stay outside.â
The housekeeper glanced at Mo Jiangye, which earned him a furious rebuke. âWhat the f*ck are you looking at me for?â The manâs face looked terrible by now.
âY-Yes... Iâll let her go in.â
The woman didnât know what to say after witnessing their dialogue.
âCome and wear this.â He placed a cloak over her shoulders.
The snowstorm became heavy all of a sudden, and he caught hold of her without hesitation. âLetâs come out again after it stops snowing. We need to eat now and put on more layers of clothes before we venture out again.â
âWeâll invite Xu Xu and the gang over to our place for dumplings in the coming new year celebration. We can get Yao Tiao and Ji Sichen to come over too.â
âYou can do whatever you want.â
âAlright.â She smiled happily at him.
âYoung Master, these are Young Madamâs clothes.â
Right at that moment, another parcel arrived at their doorstep.
âNo one is to bring dubious items into the estate from now on!â the man ordered.
He was thinking of the bouquet of flowers they had received that day and the one that had arrived a few days ago.
Flowers...
His orbs glinted ominously. Someone was vying for his womanâs attention.
Who can it be and what does that person want?
âIs this for me?â The womanâs eyes shone with delight as she eyed the long dress inside the package. A pair of beautiful, glittering crystal heels came along with it.
âDo you like it?â These clothes would complement her set of jewelry nicely.
âThey are beautiful.â
The dress was made of cotton and was perfect for the current weather. Alas, the crystal heels would have to wait for warmer days.
He went over and pulled her into his embrace. âBaby Ruo, what would you say if we took some pictures with you in this dress in the next few days?â
He wanted to record her at her most beautiful.
Right now, her wedding gown was still being prepared so it would only be available after the new year. Then, he intended to take her around the world to capture all the lovely scenery.
He would give her a wedding that every woman would die for, and she would give birth to a pretty son and daughter that others would get jealous of.
The two of them would then take their children around the world to experience life.
They would grow old as a couple and be buried side by side. In their next lives, he wanted her to be his woman again so he could continue to love and indulge her. He wanted her to bear dozens of children for him.
The more he thought of it, the more beautiful his life seemed.
âIâll give out candy to everyone living in H City on the day you marry me.â He whispered softly into her ear.
âGood.â She lay docile in his arms.
The man felt really good about having her next to him as he dipped his head to plant a gentle kiss next to her ear.
Buzz!
The cell phone on the table went off suddenly. It was Xu Xu!
The gang of three had disappeared mysteriously after the last gathering.
âHey, Boss. Is sister-in-law at home with you?â
âYes.â
âAhem... Then... I have something to tell you.â
âWhat is it?â
The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly went soft without warning. âI have a girlfriend now and I want to bring her over to you so sis-in-law can have a look.â
The man stayed quiet momentarily before he turned his head to his wife and said, âXu Xu has found a girlfriend and wants to bring her over to our place. Do you want to see them?â
The woman opened her pretty eyes wide in astonishment. âOf course, tell him to bring her over!â
She remembered how the chap had clamored for a partner after being badly teased at the last gathering. Still, she hadnât expected him to find a girl within a short time of two to three months!
âAlright, you can bring her over,â he told his henchman.
âBoss, do you have any horror films at home?â Xu Xu lowered the volume of his voice further as he asked his Chief this question.
