PICTURES IN THIS CHAPTER
It was dark in the room but this was no obstacle to Xia Lei . He saw Liang Si-Yao hiding under the covers in bed the instant he walked in . She was covering her face with the blanket .
Xia Lei closed the room door gently and locked it .
He did this not to lock out burglars but to lock out her father, Liang Zheng-Chun .
Xia Lei quietly approached Liang Si-Yao’s bed but did not know what to do when he got to her bedside .
“I…” He finally spoke one word .
Liang Si-Yao swiftly popped her head out and put on a startled act . “Huh? Wh, Why are you in my room?”
She was unaware that Xia Lei could see her every movement clearly . Liang Si-Yao thought Xia Lei had the same visibility as she had and could not see the bed clearly . Xia Lei was tickled by her pretense but he held his laughter in . He pretended to be shocked too . “Huh? This is your room? Oh no, I’ve walked into the wrong room . I’m sorry, I didn’t do this deliberately . ” He turned to leave after he spoke .
“Go . You go . If you go then you’ll have to wait till our wedding night to touch me,” said Liang Si-Yao slowly .
Xia Lei was speechless .
Her words were like a paralysis spell and Xia Lei froze in place .
The night was long and their touches of love lingered infinitely .
Liang Zheng-Chun woke the next morning to find Liang Si-Yao changed - she actually made breakfast . He found that she was like a whole new person, glowing and radiating happiness like she had met with several fortuitous events . He also quickly saw that the way Liang Si-Yao was walking was a little odd . She was not lame, but not normal either .
“Si-Yao, what’s wrong with your foot?” asked Liang Zheng-Chun worriedly .
Liang Si-Yao blushed mysteriously . “N, Nothing . I slipped in the kitchen earlier due to carelessness . Maybe it’s sprained . ”
“Put some herbal liquor on it . The liquor I make is very effective for sprains, “ said Liang Zheng-Chun .
Liang Si-Yao quickly said, “No need, it’s fine, it’ll be okay in a while . If my leg still has problems I’ll ask Xia Lei to use acupuncture on me . He’s really good at it . ”
“Is Lei still asleep? Call him to wake up and eat breakfast,” said Liang Zheng-Chun .
“Nn . ” Liang Si-Yao limped towards her room .
Liang Zheng-Chun watched her suspiciously .
Liang Si-Yao remembered something when she opened the door and laughed sheepishly . “I’ve gone to the wrong room . ” She closed the door and turned to go to Xia Lei’s room .
Liang Zheng-Chun smiled wryly and shook his head, seeming to have understood something . He was a little disappointed but happy .
Only men who had daughters would know how he felt .
Xia Lei was still snoring in his room; the previous night’s activities had tired him out . He’d probably be sleeping in Liang Si-Yao’s bed till noon if he had not been chased out at five in the morning .
Liang Si-Yao patted Xia Lei’s cheek and said gently, “Rise and shine, lazy pig . The sun’s on your ass . ”
Xia Lei opened his bleary eyes and said groggily, “Let me sleep for a while more . Yawn… I’m so sleepy . ”
Liang Si-Yao frowned and reached to pinch Xia Lei’s nose . “Get up . Dad’s waiting for you so that we can have breakfast together . It’s going to be so embarrassing if he sees through us . ”
Xia Lei climbed out of bed at that and found that he was aching all over and that his legs were wobbly .
Liang Si-Yao poked Xia Lei with a finger . “You greedy man . It wasn’t enough for you to go again and again, huh? Know what tiredness feels like now?”
Xia Lei grinned . He enveloped Liang Si-Yao in his arms . “I can’t get enough of you for my whole life . ”
Liang Si-Yao was in bliss . She kissed Xia Lei on the cheek . “Okay, okay, enough . Let’s go out now . Dad is waiting . ”
Xia Lei went to the dining room when he was done washing up and greeted Liang Zheng-Chun respectfully . “Good morning, Master . ”
“Let’s eat . Send me to the martial school after breakfast,” said Liang Zheng-Chun .
Xia Lei made a sound of agreement and buried his head in his breakfast, avoiding Liang Zheng-Chun’s gaze .
Liang Si-Yao continuously put food in his bowl . “Eat more . It’s tiring at work so you need more nourishment . ”
Xia Lei was speechless .
After breakfast, the three of them went downstairs and Liang Si-Yao asked, “Lei, where’s your car?”
Xia Lei hesitated, wondering if he should tell Liang Si-Yao and Liang Zheng-Chun that his car had been ruined by Gu Ke-Wu . They would worry if he told them but if he kept mum, he would be hiding things from Liang Si-Yao and he didn’t want that . This was no small matter either .
At that moment, a brand new black BMW M6 came in from the entrance of the neighbourhood and stopped before the three of them in an instant .
The door opened and Fu Chuan-Fu stepped out .
“Uncle Fu? This is…” Xia Lei had a suspicion .
Fu Chuan-Fu smiled . “My apologies, Mr Xia . The car you lent me has met with an accident and cannot be repaired . I’m returning you a new car . ”
“This…” Xia Lei was gobsmacked .
“Your car was new too, so it is only right that I give you a new one . The paperwork has been processed and the keys are in the car . Please accept it,” said Fu Chuan-Fu .
Before Xia Lei could speak, Liang Si-Yao jumped in and said, “Thank you for the hard work, Uncle Fu . We’ll take the car . ”
A housekeeper was a housekeeper - of course he had to compensate her Lei for damaging his car! It was a car which cost over two million yuan!
Since Liang Si-Yao had accepted it, Xia Lei did not feel it appropriate to reject it and said, “Then, thank you . ” He knew that the car must’ve been sent by Shentu Tian-Yin . The clever woman had even thought up an excuse for Fu Chuan-Fu .
Fu Chuan-Fu bowed deeply to Liang Si-Yao .
Liang Si-Yao hurriedly helped him up and said in surprise, “What are you doing, Uncle Fu?”
“This is a show of Milady’s appreciation . She instructed me to convey her thanks,” said Fu Chuan-Fu .
“I didn’t do anything . What’s she thanking me for?” said Liang Si-Yao awkwardly .
“I don’t know about that . You can ask her the next time you meet . All right, I’ve finished what I came here to do . Goodbye,” said Fu Chuan-Fu .
“I’ll send you off,” said Xia Lei .
“No need . Jin Da-Hu is waiting for me outside . He’s driving,” said Fu Chuan-Fu .
“Have a good day then, Uncle Fu,” said Xia Lei .
Fu Chuan-Fu gave him a wave and strode towards the exit .
Xia Lei thought for a bit and decided to tell them . “My car was actually destroyed by Gu Ke-Wu . ”
Liang Si-Yao paused, then giggled . “I knew it couldn’t be like that . Even so, it’s only right that you accept the car she’s given you . Your car wouldn’t have been destroyed if it weren’t for her, right?”
Xia Lei felt more at ease for having said the truth . Liang Si-Yao and Liang Zheng-Chun were both good people and he did not want to hide anything from them nor lie to Liang Si-Yao .
“Is the problem serious?” asked Liang Zheng-Chun worriedly .
“It’s fine, Master, don’t worry . The problem has been solved,” said Xia Lei with a smile .
“Mm, it’s good that it’s solved . Let’s go - we have to open up . ” Liang Zheng-Chun did not pursue the matter .
“Drive the car and try it out . You can get it changed at a 4S shop if there’re problems,” said Liang Si-Yao . She drew close to Xia Lei’s ear and said softly, “I know why she wants to thank me - it’s because she borrowed my boyfriend . Good that she admits it, but she’s only borrowing you that one time . No more lending . ”
Xia Lei was speechless .
A short while later, the brand new BMW M6 stopped in front of the martial school and Liang Zheng-Chun alighted . He walked two steps forward and turned back to say with a deeply meaningful tone, “Be safe, you two . ”
“Yes, Master . You be careful too . ” Xia Lei was all warm inside .
Liang Zheng-Chun walked off after saying that one line .
Liang Si-Yao’s face was red and she froze for a while before she reached to pinch Xia Lei on his thigh . “My dad knows! It’s all your fault!”
“He knows? What? What are you blaming me for?” said Xia Lei uncomprehendingly .
“Didn’t you hear him? He said to be safe . Be safe! We didn’t use condoms last night!”
Xia Lei was speechless .
“You’ve got to steal some boxes from our supermarket when we get to the company . ”
“Steal some boxes?”
“You’re the boss . Won’t all the supermarket employees know if you buy condoms? And if the supermarket employees know, the entire factory would know . Go steal from the warehouse, they’re yours anyway . ”
Xia Lei was speechless .
