"Mm." Ye Huang responded with one syllable, as if his words were as precious as gold.
"Then, then where is your bride?" As she spoke, the already cautious voice became quieter and quieter.
As she asked this question, Bai Xiao felt her heart rise to her throat.
She had taken over their wedding room, their wedding bed, and the man himself; the bride must have been scared off, right? How terrible.
"She's here!"
This time, Ye Huang replied with two words. However, his cold gaze still made Bai Xiao's scalp tingle. She couldn't help but look around: where was the bride?
She was certain that there were only the two of them, herself and Ye Huang, in the room. So, was the bride in the next room? Wow, that's really generous. Why didn't she kick her out?!
Speaking of which, who was the bride? She should have made a strong appearance last night and driven her out of the Ye Family. Or even beaten her up—that would have been fine too! Although... it wasn't intentional.
If only she could have made her escape in time...
Bai Xiao moved her lips several times, but lacked the courage to ask. She decided to leave first.
Ye Huang's presence was too overpowering, it made her feel endangered.
Cherish life, stay away from Ye Huang.
Especially now, when she had caused such a disaster.
Bai Xiao let out an annoyed sigh and said, "Could you turn off the lights first?" Being stared at like that was too much pressure, and it was too cold - the air conditioning was on full blast.
Ye Huang gave her a cold look, and Bai Xiao's mouth immediately curved into a placating smile.
He did not speak, answering with action instead.
Click!
The lights went out.
Bai Xiao was enveloped in darkness. After being exposed to the light, the sudden darkness made her feel as if she was blind, unable to see anything.
After several seconds and several blinks, her eyes finally adjusted to the dimness of the room.
Ye Huang paid her no mind and lay back down.
Good, he was going back to sleep. That meant he wasn't too angry, and her life was safe for the moment.
As a child, Bai Xiao had been a wild kid from the mountains, unbeaten in school fights, and even Ye Huang had taken a beating from her. In the first round, Bai Xiao won, and then, Ye Huang took up karate... After that, Bai Xiao would take a detour whenever she saw Ye Huang.
Bai Xiao fumbled out of bed, searching for her clothes.
Where were they?
Bai Xiao searched and searched, but couldn't find them.
It might be better to search with the lights on.
Bai Xiao crouched and made her way to the side where Ye Huang was sleeping, trying to turn on the light.
"Click!"
In the darkness, there was a soft sound. Bai Xiao hadn't touched the switch yet, but the light was already on, casting a warm glow over the entire room.
Ye Huang, who had gotten up at some point, leaned against the headboard, watching her coldly.
"Ah, pervert!"
Bai Xiao screamed, raising her hand to cover her chest. Wait a second. The lower part needed covering too. Ah, her hands weren't quite enough.
At that moment, she was completely bare!
Watching Bai Xiao, who was now flailing and in a panic, a hint of a smile flickered in the depths of Ye Huang's eyes, but the preoccupied person missed it.
However, Bai Xiao was indeed quick-witted. Since she couldn't cover up, she chose to turn her back.
Ye Huang watched her smooth back, the roundness of her arms, and her slender, beautiful legs, as his Adam's apple bobbed.
"Are you trying to wake up the entire household?"
Ye Huang's cold voice still had no warmth to it, and although it wasn't loud, it was full of deterrent power.
Bai Xiao immediately quieted down. Right, right, barging into someone's wedding room, lying in their wedding bed, climbing onto their man—she couldn't afford to make a fuss about such a bold deed. Especially not letting Grandma Ye find out!
"Turn off the lights and throw my clothes over," Bai Xiao took a deep breath, trying hard to remain calm. One must not lose their composure!
