"The new mayor?" Su Yan raised an eyebrow. Had he not had time to deal with the father and son duo of Hong City, and they were already finished?
"Xiao Xue is quite a capable child indeed."
His statement seemed more of a jibe at Bai Xue than a compliment.
A mocking smile appeared on Su Yan's face, "Indeed, she is very capable!"
She had proposed such a simple wager with him initially. She must have already anticipated that things would develop this way.
It was quite pathetic that he understood Bai Wanrou less thoroughly than Bai Xue did.
Even the timing was perfectly calculated by her.
Three months—that's all it took. Bai Wanrou could not even hold out for this short span of time that seemed to pass in the blink of an eye.
After eating, Su Yan went upstairs to pack up and leave.
"Where are you going?" Su Dongkun was stunned. What was going on? Su Yan had just returned and was taking off again?
"Going to the bridal chamber to accompany my wife, Mrs. Su." Su Yan gave a rogue smile.
"Very good!" Su Dongkun shouted in approbation, "I hope that a grandchild will come along soon!"
"As long as she is able to bear a child, no problem!"
Bai Xue exited the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel only to find Su Yan, laid-back on the sofa, chuckling lightly while looking at her.
She was shocked. How could he be here!
His appearance was entirely unexpected. She thought he would definitely not want to see her in the near future. She was even prepared to avoid him.
"Do you need anything?"
"Why? Do I need to have a reason to find my wife, Mrs. Su?" Su Yan raised an eyebrow.
The sarcastic tone in his use of the words 'Mrs. Su' was piercing.
However, it made Bai Xue's heart throb. Mrs. Su...Su Yan's wife...
She was starting to believe that she was slightly masochistic; a sarcastic title was making her feel sweet.
"Have you eaten? Do you want me to make something for you?" She tried to change the topic; she had no intention of staring at him with wide, open eyes.
"Do you think I'm a beggar, Mrs. Su?" he smirked. The heir of the Su family was asking about having a meal. Could it be that he couldn't afford one?
Bai Xue smirked, "Mr. Su, your imagination is too vivid!"
Was there a problem with her tone? Why did he always twist her good intentions?
"Ah.....!"
"Mrs. Su, you look seductive only wrapped in a towel." His deep voice and warm breath made her heart flutter.
Bai Xue was typically quick-witted and agile, but at this moment, she was petrified, frozen in his arms not knowing what to do.
She knew how to deal with an indifferent, angry or cruel Su Yan but didn't know how to face a tender Su Yan.
Especially this kind of tenderness, filled with ulterior motives.
She was scared, yet longed for it.
"Tonight marks our wedding night, Mrs. Su."
"A moment of spring evening is worth a thousand gold, Mr. Su. Let's call it a night!"
Originally, Su Yan planned to humiliate her. But seeing her eagerly waiting, he felt that he was not humiliating her, but himself.
He suddenly stood up and pushed Bai Xue away.
Bai Xue fell to the floor.
