」Frowning suspiciously, Xia’er sat boldly on his exclusive sofa, his beautiful black eyes staring unblinkingly at her. “Come here!” “Go where?” Still with an unlovable stubborn expression: Xinluo instantly hid her sad feelings well. She wouldn’t beg or act pitiful, so she would never show vulnerability in front of him. “Come and hug me!” His large hand accurately grabbed her wrist, pulling her forcefully into his embrace. “Ouch!” Her nose bumped against his hard chest, sending a wave of pain. “That’s better.” Holding her tightly in his arms, Xia’er felt a sense of reassurance. Whenever he felt tired or irritable, he would instinctively return here, preferably with Xinluo in his arms, but it was fine without her too – everything here would carry her feeling… making his mood calm. “What happened?” She could sense something was off with him. “Nothing, just a bit tired,” the thought of dealing with the Zhao family’s daughter for a blind date made him feel restless. “Let’s not talk about that, what were you looking at just now?” “…Me?” “Yes.” “I, I…” frowning, Xinluo answered. “You weren’t looking at the news about Lan Zhenyun’s pregnancy, were you?” Raising a thick eyebrow, he asked. “…” Should she say he was incredibly perceptive or uncannily accurate? She said nothing, but he knew everything perfectly. “Don’t look at those useless things!
」He was slightly displeased: Why go see a woman full of calculations? Do you want to pollute your mind and heart? 「……」Lowering her eyes, Xinluo remained silent. Was this his answer? Didn’t he have anything else to say to her? 「Xinluo, what are you thinking? 」Having long understood her temperament, when she didn’t speak, it was definitely not surrender, but a silent protest. 「……Don’t you believe she’s pregnant with your child? 」After a long pause, she finally asked. This was the first time she had mentioned another woman in her own home. 「Why do you ask this? 」Xia Erxi frowned. 「Because your expression says so. 」 「……」He looked at her deeply, Xia Erxi was silent for a moment, then nodded. 「Yes. 」 Because that woman’s character was not worthy of his trust, she had always been trying to become the future Madam Xia. 「You think she couldn’t be pregnant? 」 「I have always taken precautions, so even if she is truly pregnant, it may not necessarily be mine. 」He answered matter-of-factly. 「You know? Sometimes you’re really cold. 」Xinluo broke free from his embrace. 「You once liked her! Don’t you know this is a serious accusation for a woman! 」 His thin li
He sighed, speaking with deep sincerity. The “pure and clean” his father spoke of was probably describing a girl like her! A personality that couldn’t be more serious, yet without any calculating thoughts. “What do you mean?” “Many women would try to force me into marriage by using a child, that’s their tactic, and I absolutely hate such things, after all, everyone initially agreed it was just a game.” He raised his eyes to look at her. “This is also one of the reasons why I didn’t want to break up with you all these years, because I know you, you’re not a woman with hidden agendas.”
Was this a compliment to her? Yet she couldn’t feel happy; suddenly she felt even more heartbroken. “How do you view a girl’s feelings towards you?” She shook her head, “Maybe she truly loves you.” “Don’t casually use the word love, many people don’t understand what love is,” with a smile, Xia Erxi spoke words without any warmth. “So please don’t easily say you love me, I won’t believe it.” “And… don’t try to bind me with such low-level tactics using a child, that will only make me more disgusted.”
“How do you actually view women’s feelings of liking you?” Unable to believe he could say something so cruel, Xinluo blinked and stared at him. “I never asked them to like me, and I’ve never actively pursued anyone,” raising a thick eyebrow, Xia Erxi’s thin li
“I can only blame why they look at me like butterflies seeing honey, automatically sticking close, and in the end accusing me of not paying out with a handful of snot and tears!” Her heart felt cold because of his emotionless words. Seeing him was like a butterfly seeing honey, automatically sticking close… Was he talking about her? She was the one who initially confessed to him! This man truly breaks one’s heart! Murmuring “The CEO Wants to Play a Game” Chapter 6 “Sister, you can give up now, right?” A leisurely afternoon, a melt-in-your-mouth cheese cake, a pot of fragrant jujube rose tea, truly a perfect time for sisters to talk heart-to-heart. Xinmei looked like she was in a good mood, speaking with a light tone. “Give up on what?” Gently blowing, Xinluo took a sip of rose tea, as if her mood instantly relaxed. The sisters rarely met once a month: Could Xinmei not always start by talking about her love life, didn’t they have other topics to discuss? “I saw the news, he’s involved with a fashion designer, she’s pregnant, and apparently they’re getting married soon.” Frowning, Xinluo disliked Xinmei’s crude description. “Hmm, I know.” But she still answered calmly. “…That’s it?” Xinmei’s expression was strange. “That’s your reaction?” “What else?” She raised her eyes and glanced at Xinmei. “Sister, if you don’t want to curse him for being heartless, at least you should be sad about the news of his upcoming marriage, right?”
“Still…” Xinmei’s pretty face suddenly changed color. “You don’t plan to break up with him?”
“…”
“Sister! It’s one thing to be a hidden mistress now, but if you don’t leave him even after he gets married, you’ll become a notorious third party! This isn’t good! Don’t be a bad woman who destroys others’ happiness.” Xinmei exclaimed.
“…”
She hadn’t answered yet: Xinmei had already imagined the entire scenario. “Sister, don’t be stubborn!”
“I didn’t say I won’t break up!” Strange, how could two sisters from the same womb have such different personalities? Her personality was calm, while Xinmei was always dramatic.
“Then just now… just now…”
“Once he gets married, I absolutely won’t be with him again.” Xinluo said this with certainty. No matter how weak she was, she couldn’t bring herself to destroy someone else’s happiness.
“Hmm, hearing you say that, I’m relieved.” Xinmei patted her chest. Otherwise, if their strictly principled and conservative father found out, it would be strange if she wasn’t beaten.
“But, not that I’m defending Xia Erxi, I don’t believe that blue-surnamed woman is truly pregnant.” Xinmei muttered.
“Why?” She raised her eyebrows in surprise, having heard Xia Erxi say something similar before.
“I don’t know, I just feel that way.” Xinmei bit her silver fork pensively. “Maybe it’s because she seems full of scheming? I feel like this is just her way of trying to marry into a wealthy family.”
“Is that so?”
