At the entrance of the neighborhood.
Yang Chen stopped the car and said to Wei Xueqing, who was about to get off, "Thank you!"
Wei Xueqing paused for a mont and said in a low voice, "No need to thank , I just pity the little girl, pity her for having a heartless brother! Clearly, he could give her a better treatnt environnt, yet he’s doing nothing to save her!"
After speaking, Wei Xueqing opened the door and got out of the car.
Yang Chen was left bewildered by Wei Xueqing’s inexplicable words. What was that all about?
"Pfft!" Ye Xin covered her mouth and snickered from the back.
Yang Chen looked back at her, a bit annoyed.
Ye Xin pursed her lips and said, "Did you flatter her the wrong way?"
"I wasn’t flattering her at all, okay?" Yang Chen said helplessly, "I was just thanking her for buying snacks for Yanyan."
Ye Xin shrugged, "Well, you still upset her!"
With these words, Ye Xin got out of the car with a playful smile.
Yang Chen, feeling helpless, also got out of the car.
Once inside the room, Wei Xueqing tossed her bag on the sofa, her voice revealing undeniable fatigue, "I’m going to take a shower first. Call when dinner is ready; I still have to work overti doing docunts tonight."
Ye Xin said, "You have no qualms bossing my husband around!"
Wei Xueqing turned her head as she stood on the stairs and said to Ye Xin, "No! He’s cooking for you; I’m just mooching a al!"
"That’s more like it!" Ye Xin said with a satisfied smile.
Wei Xueqing rolled her eyes and went upstairs helplessly.
Ye Xin said to Yang Chen, who wore a helpless expression, "Dear, I’m going to practice yoga. Call when the food is ready!"
Yang Chen: "..."
After the two won left, Yang Chen opened the refrigerator to look at the food inside, pondering how to use these ingredients to make sothing delicious.
For the evening al, it’s best to keep it light.
Just yesterday, Yang Chen had familiarized himself with the entire structure of the villa, knowing exactly where everything was, including the kitchen supplies and utensils.
Since Wei Xueqing said she had to work overti tonight, Yang Chen took out so coffee that had been stored for a long ti.
He was quite surprised to discover that it was a can of Blue Mountain coffee imported from the Northern Federation, a high-end, very authentic brand.
It just seed to have been there for a while; Wei Xueqing probably forgot about it after bringing it back.
Yang Chen, of course, wouldn’t waste such good coffee. He took out the hand grinder, reorganized the ingredients briefly, and started preparing the al.
Dinner was simple, just vegetable salad and bread.
Won generally prefer being a bit slimr, so Yang Chen catered to their preference.
Actually, he preferred making Fla Country cuisine; that’s where he could really show his talent.
Now, his focus was on the coffee, grinding it manually.
As Yang Chen was enjoying the pleasure of grinding coffee, feeling each coffee bean being crushed, a sudden scream ca from upstairs.
The mont the sound reached Yang Chen’s ears, within 0.1 seconds, he reacted, quickly dropping the grinder and rushing upstairs like a leopard straight after its prey.
Yang Chen’s first thought was that soone was after Wei Xueqing!
So, he had no ti to think; his mind was fixed on one thought: to save Wei Xueqing!
The sound ca from the bathroom, and Yang Chen kicked the frosted glass to pieces, ignoring the sharp shards, pushed open the door, and went in!
Once inside, Yang Chen was dumbfounded.
Wei Xueqing lay naked in the bathtub, her fragrant shoulders exposed above the bubbles, looking tender and enticing.
Seeing Yang Chen rush in, Wei Xueqing scread and hurriedly covered her chest with her hands.
Actually, the bubbles in the bathtub covered everything, and Yang Chen couldn’t see anything, but with such a dramatic action, it was impossible for Yang Chen not to notice.
He quickly turned around and asked, "Are you okay?"
Wei Xueqing yelled in fury, "What are you doing! Why did you barge in!"
Yang Chen said awkwardly, "I... I heard you scream just now and thought you were in danger."
"Nonsense! How could I be in danger at ho? You’re just a beast! Get out!" Wei Xueqing scread hysterically.
Although she had embraced Western culture, deep down, Wei Xueqing was a Fla Country woman, a traditional Fla Country woman, reserved and self-restrained. Even with her boyfriend, she had only held hands and hugged, preserving her first kiss, all for the sake of having a perfect romance, a perfect self.
But now, a bodyguard she’d only known for a few days had barged in while she was taking a shower, leaving her on the brink of an emotional breakdown.
"I’m sorry!" Yang Chen said solemnly, walking out of the bathroom.
At this mont, Ye Xin also rushed over. Seeing Yang Chen coming out of the bathroom, she quickly asked, "What happened?"
Yang Chen shook his head and went downstairs.
Ye Xin, looking anxious, went into the bathroom and saw the broken glass door. Inside, she found Wei Xueqing sitting in the bathtub sobbing with her face in her hands.
Ye Xin quickly grabbed a towel to cover Wei Xueqing.
Wei Xueqing got out of the bathtub, and Ye Xin wrapped her in the towel.
Wei Xueqing leaned against Ye Xin’s embrace and sobbed loudly.
Ye Xin patted Wei Xueqing on the shoulder and comforted her, "Alright, alright, dear, stop crying. Tell what happened."
Wei Xueqing felt a sense of unprecedented grievance, with no mind to explain what had just happened, she just continued crying, wailing loudly, as if venting all the grievances she had suffered from Yang Chen these past days.
In Wei Xueqing’s bedroom.
When Wei Xueqing finally stopped crying, Ye Xin asked, "What exactly happened earlier? Why did you scream while showering?"
Wei Xueqing wiped her tearful face and sobbed, "It... it was a bird that hit the ventilation window."
Ye Xin was left speechless, "Then what about Yang Chen?"
"Don’t bring up that jerk to . How could he barged in while I’m showering? I really misjudged him; he’s just a big pervert! A lecher! A bastard!" Wei Xueqing nearly used every cursing word she could think of on Yang Chen.
Ye Xin now understood what had really happened.
She sighed and said to Wei Xueqing, "Dear, first, Yang Chen is your bodyguard. When you’re in danger, he will, at any ti, any place, by any ans, in the fastest way possible rush to your side to protect you. If soone really ca to kidnap you while you’re showering, does he still have to wait outside until you change before going in? Sorry, the perpetrators won’t give you the chance to dress!"
"But this wasn’t..." Wei Xueqing tried to argue.
Ye Xin interrupted her, continuing, "Secondly, you’re taking a bubble bath. I don’t think Yang Chen has x-ray vision, nor could he see through so many bubbles to things he shouldn’t see; you’re too tense!"
Wei Xueqing was even more furious, staring at Ye Xin, "I’m the one who got the short end, okay? I’m the one who got scared! How can you be so biased towards Yang Chen? What kind of magic spell did he cast on you?"
Ye Xin stood up and said to Wei Xueqing coldly, "He didn’t cast any magic spell on . He was just doing his job, and you were too tense, leading to a misunderstanding. He didn’t see anything he shouldn’t have, so you didn’t lose anything. But Yang Chen, he got hurt. I need to check on him."
Wei Xueqing was taken aback, looking at Ye Xin in astonishnt. She had no idea when Yang Chen got hurt.
