It was a little past seven in the evening.
Guan Xi took off her apron, washed her hands, and hurried off to the door of the mansion. She heard the sound of a car engine so she knew that the Xiao Jiuyan was coming.
She wanted to welcome him home.
When she reached the door, she saw Xiao Jingming coming out of his sapphire-blue race car. He threw the keys to the servants and told them to park the car.
When he saw her, he asked in surprise, "Auntie, are you here to welcome me home?"
"No! Get lost!" Guan Xi told him.
Xiao Jingming felt like his chest was hit with an arrow.
Suddenly, the mansion's bronze-carved iron gate opened again and a black Cayenne slowly drove in.
Guan Xi's eyes lit up. Xiao Jiuyan was back!
She stood on her tiptoes, staring excitedly at the Cayenne.
Xiao Jingming muttered to lowly, "You do know that you look like a proprietary housewife waiting for her husband's return, right?"
'A housewife?'
'Excuse me?'
Guan Xi couldn't help but be incensed.
'What the hell?'
She was a young woman with a beautiful face and body. How could she be a housewife?
However, she couldn't deny that she did cook his dinner and now she was waiting eagerly for him to come home.
Her brat of a nephew had a point...
Still, she it was only a little similarity.
She was definitely not a housewife!
She glared at Xiao Jingming. "What nonsense are you talking about? I just... I just wanted to do something nice for him because he helped me today."
She felt that her explanation was not enough, so she added fiercely, "Besides, I'm his wife, your aunt, might I add. What's wrong with me waiting here for him?"
Xiao Jingming thought that she was being too defensive.
However, he was a wise man. He was not going to point that out to her.
He nodded. "I see. Well, Uncle Jiu is indeed awesome. He was able to kick Xue Qiqi out of the school so quickly."
"Xue Qiqi is your ex-girlfriend, right? Are you not sad that she got expelled?"
"No? Besides, what else can I do?"
Xiao Jingming shook his head and continued, "It was Uncle Jiu's order and I'm not going against him. Besides, I have a lot of girlfriends. Xue Qiqi's loss doesn't really make a difference to me."
Guan Xi turned to him, deadpan. 'This scumbag!'
From her expression, Xiao Jingming immediately realized that he said something wrong. "Auntie, don't look at me like that. I didn't do anything."
"Who asked me to f*ck him in the student's office last time?" she asked pointedly.
Xiao Jingming deflated. "Please don't ever mention that dark times."
While the two of them were talking, the black Cayenne stopped in front of them.
Before the driver even got out of the car, Guan Xi had already opened the door for Xiao Jiuyan.
"Master Jiu, you're back!" Guan Xi greeted.
Upon hearing her voice, Xiao Jiuyan tore his gaze away from the laptop on his lap and looked up. He was greeted by his beautiful wife's smiling face.
Her smile was so sweet as she looked at him expectantly.
Xiao Jiuyan's brows furrowed. "What are you doing here?"
Guan Xi paused.
Here she was welcoming him home and he had the nerve to be so cold about it?
She could not answer him.
"I... I came to welcome you home and escort you inside," she replied softly.
His indifferent gaze swept across his young wife's face. "You came to escort me?"
His usually cold tone seemed to carry a little... happiness.
