350: 350、Envy is Privy II

350、Envy is Privy II

Lu Zhaoyang blushed for some reason. It was probably due to the fact that she was caught "wet-handed" over her actual thoughts. She got up and zoomed into the shower room. The white light was glaring as she stood before the shower head. The warm water splashed upon her body. She was even more confused, not sure if the ever-changing temperature of water or the episodes in the past that irritated her. 0

She rushed out of the bathroom after showering and began searching for her handphone. Her sixth sense was urging her, imploring her over what possibly had happened with Chen.

Yunting cleared his throat as he leaned against the back of the bed, "Please tell me you're just checking out a chapter on Webnovel or I'll be seriously wondering if my insensible wife just contacted a third wheel right in front of me."

"Quit messing with me. I feel something is happening now. My eyelid is twitching." 

Where's my phone? My phone! My phone? Why can't I find it? Where did I put it? 

Huo Yunting snorted as he observed his woman on his bed. Eventually Zhaoyang suspected it was the devil's doing as she went to flip the entire blanket open, only to see… 

He's NAKED? 

"Surpris-" And she promptly put the blanket back onto the Adam before her, "Where's my handphone?" 

"Isn't it in your purse the whole time? You never took it out anyway."

Did she suspect me being the man of pilfering? 

Lu Zhaoyang went for the handbag behind her but the plot changed when Huo Yunting accidentally pulled the only towel she had. She lost balance and fell upon the bed. With the agility of a Venus Flytrap, the devil tumbled and caged her within his limbs as his eyes expressively winked upon her.

"Lu Zhaoyang. Here's my last warning for you. Don't you dare try bringing up other men in front of me. You won't have a good life if I'm not happy."

"I just don't want him to be in trouble, just like how I feel for you. He's still a part of my family, no matter what." 

No longer a part of my courtship. Clearly. 

Even if I was dumb, Chen should be very aware of the truth too.

"So—does that mean we are family too?" His face inched towards her as he whispered.

"Duh! Well, you can treat me as an outsider too. We can divorce for that!"

But Lu Zhaoyang was really dumb. They would still be a family even if they divorced. Probably as long as Madam Xue stayed in the Huo Family mansion, such complicated relationship would never cease to exist.

"Sorry, the provocation you have done is not in service." He raised his arm as darkness captured her. He lifted his body away from her, slept obediently next to her like a child as he grabbed her by the waist, "Good night. There's no news you see. Not like reloading the page a gazillion times would make any anyway." 

"How are you so sure? Is there an eye in Golden City or you plotted the entire thing yourself?" Speculated Lu.

"Let's just say. Life would be much, much easier for the both of us if you stopped suspecting everything was on me one day." He then closed his eyes and went quiet. 

Zhaoyang was not wrong. He did have an eye there. It was Huo Li. Well, Huo Li was more like an "aid". Just in case anything happened.

He fully trusted the capability of his uncle. If Huo Chen could mess up the night, he certainly did not deserve his position as a junior commander in the military. 

Zhaoyang was not convinced however. Her eyes remained wide open as she waited for the break of dawn impatiently. There was a few minutes where she unawarely fell asleep but it was forty winks for her when she spread her eyes wide open right after. 

"I'm going." She promptly got up the moment she glimpsed the morning sunlight peeking through the window. She pushed her man's arm away.

"Hmm—this—early?" He rubbed his eyes and immediately seized her again, "Five more minutes."

"No thank you." She did not sleep at all for the entire night yet she was feeling very energized. "Oh…" Huo Yunting mumbled as he remembered their final conversation before sleeping last night. He yawned outrageously, "Well, check it on my phone." He slid the phone from under the pillow to her.

"Okay…" Lu Zhaoyang took over his phone and she nearly threw it out of the window when the lock screen showed up.

"CHANGE IT!" She shouted.
