After finishing his sentence, Qin Zhiyou tilted up his chin slightly and looked at her with a calm gaze.
Lu Weixi’s eyes were slightly reddened, not from sorrow or grievance, but from sheer annoyance. Glancing at the bowls and plates on the table, the unfinished porridge and uneaten fruit, she had a mind to dump them all over Qin Zhiyou’s detestable face.
She clenched her fist, took several deep breaths to compose herself, and forced a smile through gritted teeth, “But just now, I helped you with your drink and also prepared fruit for you.”
Qin Zhiyou responded with a nonchalant ‘Oh’, nodding before saying softly, “Thank you.” And after a pause, added with a wicked smirk, “I never asked you to do those things, it was all voluntary.”
Lu Weixi’s eyes widened. She was genuinely shocked that Qin Zhiyou could play such a cheap trick, all for a mere night’s accommodation! She got up abruptly, her icy face avoiding Qin Zhiyou, who was sitting in the middle. She purposely took a detour, walking towards the staircase from behind the sofa.
Just when she was passing behind the couch, an arm stretched out to grab her wrist. Lu Weixi instinctively attempted to shake off the hand, when a soft, lazy voice floated from beneath, “…But the young master is in a good mood now. If I am pleased later, not to mention last night, I will pay for today as well.”
Lu Weixi frowned slightly, unsure of the credibility of Qin Zhiyou’s words. Shortly after he finished speaking, he released his grip and stood up, leisurely brushing down his clothes, slid his hands into his pockets, took long strides, and casually headed upstairs.
Watching his retreating figure, Lu Weixi hesitated for a moment, but decided to follow him. As soon as he entered the door, Qin Zhiyou headed directly to the bathroom. She followed him closely, fixing her eyes on him as he fiercely shut the door. She had to stop abruptly, almost crashing into the frosted glass door of the bathroom.
Then, the sound of water trickled from the bathroom.
She gently touched her nose and waited obediently, preparing his pajamas.
This is precisely the scene Qin Zhiyou saw when he emerged from the bathroom.
Lu Weixi, dressed in pajamas, was seated at the dressing table applying makeup. When she heard his voice, she turned around immediately with a smile on her face, her voice soft, “Have you finished bathing?”
Qin Zhiyou’s expression remained calm as his throat bobbed slightly. He only grunted in response, ignoring her as he threw his bath towel into the laundry basket and picked up his clothes to change. Once dressed, he paid no further attention to her, picking up his mobile phone to handle some business before climbing into bed.
Seeing him resting, she quickly tidied up as well. The room was silent, and she took the time to figure out how to please him, when suddenly, Qin Zhiyou leaned over to her.
Qin Zhiyou’s lips were soft. His upper lip was slightly thin, while his lower lip bore faintly visible ridges, giving off a deeper hue, as if injured. Paired with his handsome nose and subtly upturned eyes, he held a captivating allure.
Lu Weixi thought, no wonder so many women were infatuated with him. He was strong, domineering, and occasionally gentle.
She broke the silence, “Are you satisfied?”
After hearing that, Qin Zhiyou paused.
There were no lights on in the room. She could feel him stir slightly before he let out a low chuckle, like a ghost’s whispering, followed by his resounding voice, “Satisfied, how could I not be? I am dead-ly satisfied. However…”
Even in the dim room, she could see his eyes gleaming fiercely, like a hawk on a moonlit night, locking onto its prey.
“…It’s far from enough!” These words softly echoed against her ear like a faint, distant whisper.
Qin Zhiyou didn’t leave her alone for a second longer than necessary, as though she was something untouchable.
Of course, before leaving, he tossed a reassuring word to her with a warm smile, “Don’t worry, with the fruits of your labor, you’ll become rich. I won’t owe you anything.”
It took Lu Weixi a long time to recover from her exhaustion and even longer to free herself from Qin Zhiyou’s hold. Her wrists and waist ached.
Was he satisfied? She didn’t know if he was or not. The first round, he was his usual self, second round he was laughing throughout. However, she always felt he was furious, as if he wanted to actually bite her in anger.
The next moment, her phone pinged. It took her great effort to reach for it. It was a notification from her mobile bank, showing an incoming transaction of 20,000.
Then came a message from him, “Thanks for the hospitality, I had a great night.”
He paid so generously and thoughtfully sent a text, apparently, he was in a good mood earlier. Despite the discomfort she still felt, Lu Weixi let out a sigh of relief and quickly responded with “Looking forward to serving you next time.”
She sent the message on WeChat, but there was no response from his end.
But Lu Weixi was used to it. After several sleepless nights, she tidied up slightly and went back to bed. The bed was large enough for her to sleep in any position, which was much more comfortable than sharing it with someone else. After a tiring round, she fell asleep quickly and woke up refreshed. After taking her medicine, she had a pleasing chat with Aunt Hao about the food for the night.
After that, she was very busy, and so was Qin Zhiyou. Time flew by, and almost a month passed without Qin Zhiyou returning home for even one day..
