Ling Hui had never thought that she would spend three days with a man in a villa.
Tang Xi asked Fang Ye to bring his laptop and various documents to the villa, and even asked Fang Ye to bring fresh fruits and vegetables over every day.
He seemed to be addicted to kissing her. Whenever he was not working, he would pull her over and kiss her.
Her body was delicate and could not withstand his continuous torture.
Apart from the first day when he had forced himself on her several times, he had not touched her in the last two days.
But kissing was essential every day.
Sometimes, when she was eating, there would be rice on the corner of her mouth. He would come over and kiss away the rice at the corner of her mouth. Then, he would pull her onto his lap and kiss her without any restraint.
Other times, when she was watching variety shows on the sofa, he would come over when he finished his work. When he saw that she was ignoring him, he would press her onto the sofa and ravage her lips until she stared at him for ten seconds before he let go of her.
He was domineering to the core, but was meticulous and considerate in some aspects too.
When she was with him, she never needed to cook. When she was upset, she could always throw a tantrum at him.
If Ling Hui had never been hurt in the past, she might have thought that Tang Xi was a good lover.
However, she was divorced and had been hurt before. Her heart would not be opened so easily!
…
On the fourth day, Tang Xi’s company called him and asked him to attend an important meeting.
After making breakfast for Ling Hui and leaving a note, he headed out.
Ling Hui was woken up by a ringtone.
For some reason, she had been able to sleep well every night while staying with Tang Xi and seldom had nightmares.
Ling Hui reached for the phone on the bedside table and anwered sleepily.
“Miss Ling, are you not up yet?”
It was a male friend of Ling Hui, Zuo Yi.
Zuo Yi’s family background was not bad. He liked to travel and explore, had been to many countries, and met many important people.
After Ling Hui’s father had been poisoned, she had asked Zuo Yi to help her find a famous doctor who knew how to cure all poisons.
It was because of this that Zuo Yi was calling Ling Hui.
“I went to B Country some time ago and made a friend from the royal family. I heard from him that the Ninth Prince’s mother left three life-saving pills for him when he was alive. Every time he went out, he would bring one with him. That life-saving pill can cure hundreds of poisons, but the Ninth Prince regards them very preciously. He only gave one to the old King when he asked him for it.”
Ling Hui sat up on the bed. She picked up the remote control and the curtains opened automatically. Dazzling light shone in and Ling Hui narrowed her beautiful eyes. “No matter how difficult it is, we have to try.”
“I heard that the Ninth Prince is going to Sina Island for a vacation the day after tomorrow. The most famous place on Sina Island is an entertainment city called Guna Castle. That is the Ninth Prince’s favorite place for a vacation.”
“Huihui, do you want to ask your aunt for help regarding this matter?”
Ling Hui pursed her beautiful red lips tightly. “Country B and our Country Y have never been on good terms. Auntie is already very busy with work every day. I don’t want to trouble her. Besides, it’s still a legend that the life-saving pill can cure hundreds of poisons. We don’t know that for sure!”
“Don’t tell me that you’re going to look for the Ninth Prince personally.”
“Why not?”
“But Huihui, the Ninth Prince is known for being a pervert. If you go and look for him, I’m afraid you’ll be walking into a lion’s den!”
“Don’t worry, I will protect myself.” Ling Hui got off the bed and went to the bathroom to wash up. She seemed to have thought of something and asked Zuo Yi on the other end of the call, “Oh right, there’s something I want to ask you.”
“What is it?”
“I got together with a man who had a crush on me for many years. I’m ending it with him in a month. However, during the time we spent together, I realized that he wasn’t too bad. But I don’t want to keep dating him. How can I lessen the pain I’ve caused him?”
“When he had a crush on you, he thought that you were an unreachable goddess. Now that you’re dating, you’ve made him realize that you aren’t as beautiful as he thought you were. Who knows, he might have thought it through and might end it with you in advance!”
Ling Hui bit her lip and thought of her behavior in front of Tang Xi in the past few days. She had been arrogant and unreasonable, but that was also her true self.
In the past, she had hidden her true personality for Ling Motian, and had worked hard to change herself, wanting to become the type of woman he liked.
But in the end, he still preferred the flirtatious slut outside!
Ling Hui would not change herself for a man!
She could still live well without relying on men.
As for Tang Xi, she did not hide her personality in front of him. He probably would not be able to stand her once they had been together for a long time.
After ending the call, Ling Hui went downstairs.
There was a note stuck on the refrigerator. Tang Xi had used a fountain pen to write a note. “Your breakfast is in the microwave. I’ll get Fang Ye to bring lunch over. Don’t miss me too much.”
There was even a naughty smiley face drawn on the back.
…
After breakfast, Ling Hui took a walk in the garden.
Back at the villa, she booked a flight to Sina Island for the next day.
In the afternoon, Fang Ye brought lunch over and told Ling Hui, “Young Master has to work overtime tonight, so he might not be able to come back.”
Ling Hui smiled brightly. “Let him work in peace.”
After Fang Ye returned to the President’s office of the Tang Corporation. Tang Xi, who was sitting behind the desk signing documents, looked up and glanced at him. “Did you tell the Princess that I’m not going back tonight?”
“Yes.”
Tang Xi raised his eyebrows slightly. “What did she say? Did she look like she missed me?”
Fang Ye really did not want to attack his young master. He braced himself and replied, “Princess Ling Hui told you to work in peace.”
“That’s it?”
“Yes, Young Master. Actually, Princess Ling Hui has started to care about you. She would never say such things in the past.”
Tang Xi gave a self-deprecating smile. “She probably prefers me not to go back.”
…
Ling Hui thought that she would be able to sleep better if Tang Xi did not return at night.
However, in the end, she failed to go to sleep that night and only fell asleep at three or four in the morning.
In the morning, she was woken up by a rustling sound. Ling Hui opened her eyes in a daze and saw the man packing his luggage through the gaps of the curtains.
Realizing that Ling Hui had woken up, Tang Xi walked to the side of the bed and caressed her small face. “You’re awake? Come to the company with me later. I’ll bring you to a fun place in the afternoon.”
Ling Hui thought about how she was going to Sina Island in the afternoon and pulled away the man’s hand that was caressing her face. She said with a slightly hoarse voice, “I have something on in the afternoon and will only be back the day after tomorrow.”
“What is it?”
Ling Hui pursed her lips. “I don’t want to talk about it.”
Tang Xi stared at Ling Hui for a few seconds. “Is it very important?”
“Yes.”
“Alright, I’m going out too. See you the day after tomorrow then.”
“Okay.” Ling Hui was still a little sleepy. She turned over and fell asleep again.
Tang Xi looked at the back of her head. He wanted to kiss her before leaving, but it was obvious that she did not want to be intimate with him.
He took his luggage, walked to the bedroom door, and turned back to look at her.
She seemed to be sleeping soundly and did not look at him.
A faint loneliness spread in his heart.
A person’s heart would never be satisfied. She had promised to stay with him for a month and he had slept with her. However, he desired her heart.
