"You are my woman, what's there to repay?" Li Yang smiled, pinching her smooth cheek, and shoved a pair of chopsticks into her hand. "Eat."
"Mmm," Shui Xiang nodded, taking the chopsticks and picking up food for him.
After they finished eating, they cleaned the table and washed the dishes, then lay on the sofa. They didn't engage in any intimate acts, but simply held each other, basking in each other's presence, feeling quite content.
After ten o'clock, Li Yang drove her back, having bought some gifts along the way.
Father Shui hadn't gone to bed yet. Seeing them return together, his face lit up with joy. "Did you come together?"
"Yes, Uncle," Li Yang smiled, handing over the gifts. "You're still awake?"
"I'm about to go to bed," Father Shui quickly accepted the gifts and smiled. "Thank you for the presents. Don't be so formal next time."
"You two chat, I'm going to bed now."
With that, he quickly walked towards his bedroom and closed the door with a click.
Only the two of them remained in the living room.
Shui Xiang couldn't help but chuckle. "My dad probably thinks we aren't together yet and wants to set us up."
"I'll confess our relationship to Uncle right now," Li Yang said with a smile.
Shui Xiang shook her head and pulled his arm. "No need. Let him keep his hopes up."
"You're quite mischievous," Li Yang pinched her nose.
Shui Xiang hummed and leaned into his embrace. After a while, she said, "Are you free this Sunday?"
"Yes," Li Yang nodded. "What is it? If it's urgent, I'm free now too."
"I won't tell you for now. You'll know when the time comes," Shui Xiang smiled, then raised her hand to straighten his clothes. "It's getting late, you should head back soon. It'll be dangerous to drive when it's dark."
"Alright, I'll be going then," Li Yang nodded, kissed her with a smile, and walked out of the house.
The night outside, under the city lights, wasn't too dark. The distant scenery was still clearly visible.
As Li Yang drove home, he suddenly spotted a beautiful figure, his expression turning suspicious.
"Oh, oh, my foot," the beautiful silhouette let out a pained cry, inadvertently turning towards Li Yang, displaying an extremely alluring curve.
Li Yang recognized the voice. "Xue Mi'er?"
"Ah? Mr. Li, it's you!" The woman with the shapely hips and sheer stockings immediately turned her head, revealing a stunningly beautiful and charming face, and exclaimed, "What are you doing here?"
"Just passing by," a glint flashed in Li Yang's eyes, and the corner of his mouth curved into a smile. He got out of the car and said to her, "It seems you've run into some trouble."
"Mr. Li, you've come at the perfect time. I was just about to hail a taxi, but my high heel stepped on a manhole cover and I twisted my ankle," Xue Mi'er said charmingly. "If you hadn't come, I would have cried."
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, as if she were about to cry.
This was something that could easily move a man.
Li Yang immediately said, "Don't worry, I'll come and help you."
"Thank you, Mr. Li," Xue Mi'er said, deliberately accentuating her figure to appear more alluring.
Li Yang crouched down and held Xue Mi'er's delicate foot. "Does it hurt?"
"Ah, ah, Mr. Li, you're hurting me so much, I can't take it anymore."
"It's supposed to hurt. It means you just sprained your ankle. If it didn't hurt, then the problem would be much bigger," Li Yang chuckled, then suddenly looked to the side. "What do you see over there?"
"Where?" Xue Mi'er turned her head but saw nothing unusual, her expression becoming somewhat puzzled.
At that moment, Li Yang applied force with his palm, and with a crisp crack, before Xue Mi'er could feel any pain, her sprained ankle was already set straight.
It was then that Xue Mi'er understood. "Mr. Li, you weren't actually asking me to look at something, but you wanted to treat me, weren't you?"
"You're very smart," Li Yang looked up and smiled.
Xue Mi'er's pretty face flushed, and she asked shyly, "Mr. Li, what did you see just now?"
"Cough, nothing."
"Mr. Li, you're lying, you clearly saw something," Xue Mi'er said, her face red.
Li Yang rubbed his nose. "Sorry, I saw it accidentally. If there's nothing else, I'll see you next time."
"Mr. Li, I suddenly don't want to go home anymore. Can you take me for a drive?" Xue Mi'er immediately walked over and hooked her arm through his.
Her pleasant fragrance immediately made Li Yang feel happy and refreshed.
On such a beautiful night, with such a beautiful woman, any normal man would not want to waste such a good time.
Li Yang was, of course, a perfectly normal man. He led her towards the car.
"Can the drive be to my place?"
"Mr. Li, whatever you wish. Tonight, I am yours," Xue Mi'er said very directly.
Li Yang took her to his place.
Unbuttoning his trousers, Xue Mi'er said, "Mr. Li, you go take a bath first. I'll come over later."
"Alright, I'll wait for you in the bathroom," Li Yang smiled and walked into the bathroom.
After a while, Xue Mi'er came over with two glasses of wine. "Mr. Li, let's toast first."
"You're very romantic," Li Yang smiled, took the wine glass, and drank it down in one gulp.
Seeing him drink the wine without any reservation, a cold light flashed in Xue Mi'er's eyes. I've finally found my chance!
Li Yang, the humiliation you inflicted on me that day, I will repay tenfold tonight.
The corner of her mouth curved slightly, and Xue Mi'er smiled and asked, "Mr. Li, how do you like the taste of this wine?"
"It tastes very good. But compared to you, it's certainly insignificant," Li Yang smiled and embraced her.
Xue Mi'er didn't resist. The potent poison in the wine would take effect soon, and that would be your death!
However!
Time ticked by, but Li Yang showed no signs of poisoning.
Xue Mi'er began to panic. "Mr. Li, how are you feeling now?"
"Feeling great. Your figure is amazing," Li Yang carried her into the bathtub and smiled. "Are you ready? Here I come."
