Chapter 32: Chapter 32: Does it look good?
Cheng Yi's room was on the upper leftmost side of the second floor, where he had lived since he was a child, and only the housekeeper aunt would come to clean.
The room had an oversized floor-to-ceiling window, and from this angle, one could take in the entire estate.
When Cheng Yi pushed the door open and entered, he saw Xinan standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, her head bowed, and her long hair covering her face, revealing only her fair and slender neck and beautifully delicate collarbone.
"What are you looking at?" he asked.
Hearing his voice, Xinan lifted her head, revealing a pair of clear eyes, "Nothing, I'm just looking around."
Cheng Yi stared at her for a while and then raised his hand to hand her the pajamas, "Go take a bath first."
Xinan nodded, took the pajamas, and turned towards the bathroom. After she closed the door, Cheng Yi didn't rush to leave. He leaned against the doorway, his eyes slightly squinting with a trace of languor.
The next second, he opened the bathroom door and walked in...
Xinan, holding the pajamas in front of the mirror, had just removed her clothes halfway when she heard the door open and saw Cheng Yi coming in. She was startled and hurriedly grabbed the clothes to cover herself.
Her skin was superb, rosy and as smooth as a baby's, and her features were fine and beautiful, especially her large, bright almond eyes, which seemed almost capable of dripping water.
Cheng Yi hooked his lips into a wicked smile, reached out to pinch her delicate cheeks, and lowered his head to kiss her.
The more she struggled, the more Cheng Yi seemed to resist her, his kisses becoming more passionate and heartfelt.
It wasn't until Xinan felt like she could hardly breathe that Cheng Yi finally let her go.
Xinan's eyes turned red, watery, much like a ripe apple, tempting one to take a bite.
Just when Xinan thought it was over, the next second, Cheng Yi lifted her up and headed towards the bathtub already filled with water...
In the end, Xinan lay limply in Cheng Yi's arms and fell into a deep sleep after a while.
Cheng Yi briefly cleaned her body, casually grabbed a blanket to cover her, then carrying her out of the bathroom, he gently laid her on the bed.
Cheng Yi sat by the bed, quietly staring at Xinan's beautiful brows and eyes, unable to resist stroking them a few times.
It was then that he dared to unabashedly observe her, to lay bare his own heart.
Looking at Xinan asleep, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and he leaned down to gently kiss her forehead.
"Nannan, good night."
That night, Xinan slept exceptionally soundly.
The morning sunlight shone through the window, landing on Xinan's delicate and fair face, and her slightly trembling eyelashes resembled the wings of a butterfly ready to take flight.
Xinan slowly opened her eyes, and her gaze immediately met Cheng Yi's divinely handsome face. Her heart skipped a beat, recalling the events of last night, and her face unconsciously flushed red.
Cheng Yi noticed Xinan's movements and also slowly opened his eyes, meeting hers directly.
Xinan was startled and coughed lightly, "You're awake?"
Cheng Yi stared at Xinan's lovely face for a while and then uttered a low "Mhm."
Cheng Yi's hand moved slightly.
Xinan had not noticed until then that his hand was resting on her waist. She immediately felt her face heating up, unnaturally turning her head away and then sitting up to get dressed.
"I'll get up first."
Since she had no clothes on her body to cover herself, Xinan had to use the blanket to hide herself, then awkwardly reached out to grab the clothes placed beside her.
This caused Cheng Yi's upper body to be directly exposed to the air.
Cheng Yi just looked at her for a while, his gaze cool, and then he too sat up, getting out of bed and boldly displaying his physique, his mermaid line and abs each lean and tight, without an ounce of excess fat.
Watching him was irresistibly tantalizing.
Xinan couldn't help but fix her gaze on his body, admiring those lines and suddenly feeling it was a pity he wasn't a model.
He stood on the carpet, pulling on his trousers with crisp, clean movements, every gesture exuding elegance and handsomeness.
Perhaps Xinan's stare was too intense, Cheng Yi slightly turned his head and asked, "Like what you see?"
Xinan quickly turned her head away, pretending as if she had seen nothing.
Cheng Yi curled his lips in a slight smile and shook his head gently.
By the time Xinan looked up again, Cheng Yi had already dressed.
Only then did Xinan notice that he wasn't wearing a suit today. Instead, he was in a white shirt and black casual pants, looking very stable and handsome.
A couple of minutes later, Xinan, too, was fully dressed. Seeing Cheng Yi putting on his watch, she suddenly remembered something and said, "Cheng Yi, your mother gave me a bracelet yesterday."
Xinan took off the jade bracelet from her wrist to show him.
Cheng Yi paused fastening his watch, his gaze slowly fell on the bracelet, but he only glanced at it briefly before looking away, his tone calm and steady, "Since my mom gave it to you, you should wear it."
"Oh..."
Since Xinan had to go to the filming set, after breakfast and bidding farewell to Mr. and Mrs. Cheng, she rushed off.
Cheng Yi drove her to the set. Instinctively, Xinan said goodbye to him, but just as she finished speaking, Cheng Yi opened the car door and stepped out.
He walked over to Xinan, hands in his pockets, his tone serious, "What are you waiting for? Let's go."
"Ah?" Xinan asked with a face full of confusion, "Are you coming with me?"
"Yes."
"Aren't you working today?"
Cheng Yi looked at Xinan and replied slowly, "I'm on leave today."
His expression was very calm, as if he were talking about something completely normal.
As the CEO of Yifeng Group, there were always numerous tasks waiting for him every day. Since his return to the country, his days had been packed.
But now, having unexpectedly taken a day off, he actually wanted to accompany her to the shoot? Xinan found it hard to believe.
Seeing Xinan standing there somewhat dazed, Cheng Yi urged, "Are we going or not?"
Xinan then snapped out of it and followed Cheng Yi inside.
Last time Cheng Yi visited, everyone was guessing his identity, but this time it was different; everyone knew he was the CEO of Yifeng Group.
Everyone who saw him greeted him with respect.
"Good day, Mr. Cheng"
"Mr. Yi."
"Mr. Yi."
...
Cheng Yi acknowledged their greetings with a slight nod, his face expressionless.
In such settings, he dealt with this daily, because he knew better than anyone that these people greeted him only to make themselves familiar to him.
After all, no one wouldn't want to get acquainted with the CEO of Yifeng Group, the leader of the Cheng family.
