Hai Xiaotang doubted if she was hearing things.
No, she wondered if there was something wrong with Dongfang Yuâs brain.
She didnât read the newspaper today, so she was not aware that she had never actually divorced Dongfang Yu.
âDongfang Yu, what do you mean by that?â Hai Xiaotang asked, puzzled, âWhat do you mean your house is also mine? Do we have a relationship? Are you sure youâre not joking?â
Dongfang Yu still answered firmly, âI am not joking! It is just as I said.â
âWhat do you mean by that?â a slightly uneasy Hai Xiaotang asked.
Dongfang Yu pursed his lips: âIâll explain when we get there.â
He couldnât clarify now, and he didnât know how to explain it either.
But Hai Xiaotang couldnât wait, âNo, tell me now! Otherwise, pull over, I want to get out.â
âAre you sure you want to get out? Donât you want to hear what I have to say to you, even if itâs very important, are you sure you would not want to know?â Dongfang Yu retorted.
This made Hai Xiaotang hesitate for a moment.
Humansâ curiosity can be their downfall, she was not an exception.
âYou better have something important to say to me.â Hai Xiaotang warned, indifferently shifting her gaze away from him
And so, both of them reached the mansion in silence.
Dongfang Yu drove into the mansionâs driveway, stopped, opened the door and ordered her, âGet out.â
Then he went straight into the living room.
Hai Xiaotang followed him, the servants saw her and greeted her respectfully with a smile, âYoung mistress, hello, welcome home.â
Even after Hai Xiaotangâs divorce with Dongfang Yu, these people still called her young mistress, so she didnât think much of it.
âYoung master, dinner is ready.â One of the servants reported.
Dongfang Yu nodded, he took off his suit jacket and threw it on the couch, then turned to Hai Xiaotang, âCome on, letâs go eat. I will tell you everything after we finish dinner.â
âI wonât eat, tell me now.â Hai Xiaotang added.
Dongfang Yu glanced at her, âHave you eaten anything since last night?â
ââ¦â She hadnât.
âEven if youâre not hungry, Iâm hungry, as I havenât eaten!â Dongfang Yu said, then turned around and walked towards the dining room.
Hai Xiaotang was slightly surprised.
What did he mean by that, he hadnât eaten anything since last night?
Why hadnât he eaten?
Hai Xiaotang wouldnât naively think that he hadnât eaten because he was worried about her.
â¦
Hai Xiaotang still went to the dining room.
She hadnât eaten all day, indeed, she was hungry. Coupled with the constant anxiety, now that she was able to relax a bit, she felt exhausted and starving.
All the dishes were her favourites, and she was caught off guard and ate⦠three bowls!
After finishing her last bowl, Hai Xiaotang found Dongfang Yu observing her.
Immediately feeling awkward, she quickly put down her chopsticks, âIâm done eating.â
âReally?â Dongfang Yu asked back, making Hai Xiaotang even more embarrassed. He must think she was starving.
âUm, Iâve finished!â She nodded casually, trying her best to remain calm and composed.
Dongfang Yu got up, âNow that youâve finished eating, follow me to the study.â
Finally, he was about to drop the bombshellâ
Hai Xiaotang quickly followed suit, entering the study with a feeling of nervousness.
âClose the door.â Dongfang Yu, who walked in front, ordered.
Hai Xiaotang closed the door again, âWhat are you trying to say?â
âFrom now on, we will continue to be husband and wife!â Dongfang Yu turned his head and threw out this sentence directly.
Hai Xiaotang was startled, âWhat did you say?â
