The Aftermath of Having Slept with the Villain - Chapter 211: Stand-in Lover (23)

Chapter 211: Stand-in Lover (23)

World Seven. Stand-in Lover (23)

Chi Yu’s statement aroused Xue Xue’s curiosity.

However the man didn’t finish his sentence, he just put his hand on the top of Xue Xue’s head and stroked it gently twice, as if smoothing the fur of a small animal.

“Give me some time, and I’ll explain things to you clearly, okay?”

Hearing this, Xue Xue complained in her heart.

Could it be no good?

“Are you really going to tell me?”

Xue Xue raised her head, looking straight into Chi Yu’s eyes with her dark black eyes, like a snow-white rabbit acting like a baby with its master, pitiful and cute.

Chi Yu’s heart stirred.

The height difference between the two was perfect. The man lowered his head so that he could meet the nose of the lover in his arms.

“Of course, I won’t lie to you, Xue Xue.” Chi Yu’s voice was low and hoarse, with the unique gentleness towards his lover. “As long as you are honest with me, I will be honest with you. People who love each other should not have secrets, right?”

Wasn’t it?

Xue Xue also wanted to ask Chi Yu on behalf of Xue Li in her previous life. Since both of them had secrets, how did he have the right to hate Xue Li? After all, Xue Li in her previous life didn’t know Chi Yu’s real identity until her death.

However, Xue Xue suppressed this impulsive thought the moment it surfaced, and told herself rationally that it was meaningless to do so.

What she should do was get her job done.

This was her obligation to Xue Li.

“Xue Xue?”

Xue Xue’s silence made Chi Yu’s heart tighten, and he experienced a rare feeling in his life that might be called panic or scared. Even when he knew about Xue Li and Fu Qingyu at that time, Chi Yu had no taste of it.

The strangeness screamed uneasiness.

Xue Xue also felt it.

From the stiff but suddenly tightened movements of the limbs of the man, it was obvious how his mood fluctuated.

Xue Xue lowered her eyelids to hide her redundant emotions.

The distance between the two was very close, and the sound of quick and slow breathing was intertwined, binding them tightly like chains.

“Xue Xue…”

“Okay.” She said, and at the same time flashing past Chi Yu’s close lips and burying herself in his warm chest. “Chi Yu, just like you gave me a chance, now I will give you another chance.”

Xue Xue said that while turning her face, and leaning her ear on Chi Yu’s left chest, listening quietly to the steady and powerful rhythm one after another.

Then, she closed her eyes.

“Don’t let me down, Ah Yu.”

When Chi Yu heard this, he retracted his arms.

“No, Xue Xue.” Resting his chin on Xue Xue’s forehead, Chi Yu’s voice was as soft and peaceful as if it had been moistened by water. However, if you listen carefully, you can hear the slight trembling in it, which is the excitement of being pardoned. “I won’t let you down.”

Everyone can say in words, but the key is whether to do it or not.

Although Xue Xue thought so, she would not spoil his happiness at this time.

“Hmm, I believe you.”

It was more than two months later when Chi Yu made things clear.

In the middle, Chi Yu took Xue Xue out for a trip. Xue Xue was unwilling to go at first. The company has been troubled recently, and she seldom takes a break even on ordinary holidays, let alone a week-long trip.

But in the end she agreed to Chi Yu.

Because of Xue Dehui.

“Are you afraid that I will swallow the company while you’re not here? Don’t worry, I’m not such a villain.”

“You are a human being, not a working machine. You should rest when you need to rest, otherwise it would be meaningless to spend all your life in the company.”

It was a coincidence that Xue Xue staggered when she was leaving the house because she had a fever and was found by Chi Yu, who carried her to the hospital.

Later, while waiting for the doctor to see her, Xue Xue suddenly wanted to drink hot milk tea and after being pestered by her in various ways, Chi Yu was finally persuaded to drive to the city alone after repeatedly telling her to be careful.

The milk tea shop that Xue Xue designated was an online celebrity shop, even though it has been booked in advance, it still has to be waited for half an hour.

She had to admit that she did it on purpose.

Chi Yu hadn’t stopped nagging since taking her temperature at home, and Xue Xue felt that her ears were about to be made deaf by him.

In the past few days, the cold current has hit, and the temperature in various places has dropped several degrees. Several cities in the north even have heavy snowfall, and the surfaces were all silvery white.

Although Xue Xue was in a good condition, it has been raining continuously for several days. After finally waiting for the weather to clear up, a strong wind blew again. Xue Xue, who has arranged with foreign customers for field survey projects these days suffered terribly.

It seems unreasonable not to catch a cold.

However, Xue Xue’s physical fitness has always been good, and she didn’t really care about a runny nose and cough. Chi Yu noticed that Xue Xue jested after being asked a few times, probably because she had accumulated for too long, and finally broke out all of a sudden.

Xue Xue had a fever of thirty-nine degrees.

As soon as this number appeared, Chi Yu’s face immediately turned as black as a block of dark ink.

Xue Xue knew that she was in the wrong, so she was as obedient as a good student listening to the teacher’s lessons no matter what Chi Yu said, but Chi Yu obviously didn’t know what it meant to accept when she was good.

At first she didn’t feel any pain in her head, but after being nagged by Chi Yu, Xue Xue felt that she had become the Monkey King, with a tight band on his head, which was very uncomfortable.

In the end, it was really a last resort to send the man away.

When Chi Yu left, Xue Xue felt that the world suddenly quieted down. It was only then that she felt drowsy, as if she would fall asleep at any time.

Xue Xue, who buried her entire face in the scarf, moved her stiff shoulders, in an attempt to clear her mind.

But to little avail.

At this moment, someone tapped on the shoulder.

Xue Xue thought it was Chi Yu who had returned.

“How can you…”

Xue Xue, who turned around and saw the person coming, swallowed back the words that hadn’t been said yet.

She never expected to meet Xue Dehui here.
