The obedient girl glances up, and the tyrannical tycoon kneels down to pamper her.

Xing Zhengyu refused: "No."

“Brother Zhengyu?” Pei Youyou walked over.

Xing Zhengyu immediately hung up the phone, turned to Pei Youyou, opened his arms, and asked with a smile, "Why are you awake?"

"I had a nightmare, and I was scared when I woke up and you weren't there." Pei Youyou pounded his chest and said coquettishly, "You promised to protect me, but you weren't there when I woke up."

"I just came out to take a call because something came up."

"Why do you have to come out to answer the phone? Brother Zhengyu, you won't do anything to betray me, will you?" Pei Youyou was very proud of Xing Zhengyu's love for her, and she didn't want to lose in this matter, so she couldn't help but be suspicious.

Xing Zhengyu had never found Pei Youyou so annoying.

"Don't think nonsense. You will be my wife for the rest of my life. I'll carry you back to sleep."

"Mmm!" Pei Youyou nestled in his arms, having long forgotten her nightmare. "Brother Zhengyu, I really like you so much."

"Me too."

As Pei Youyou passed the stairwell, her eyes happened to be looking at the corner of the stairs on the third floor. She thought there was a figure moving, which startled her.

"There's someone over there!"

"Who is it?" Xing Zhengyu turned around with her in his arms and went up the stairs. Pei Youyou buried her face in his chest.

"Nobody's here, Youyou, are you seeing things?"

Pei Youyou slowly raised her head and looked over, but there was indeed nothing there.

On the third-floor stairwell, Xing Yanzhao pinned Luo Huai against the wall, covering her mouth with one hand, their breaths mingling.

It felt as if a large branding iron was placed on Luo Huai's body, with one spot being particularly prominent, making her feel hot.

"The person is gone," she whispered. "You can let go now."

Xing Yanzhao let go, took a half step back, and realized that his brother had raised the banner. He explained, "It means that I am healthy in this area."

Luo Huai's face flushed again.

"Why did you come out?"

"I woke up and you weren't there."

"I was thirsty, and there was no water in the room, so I went downstairs."

"Go get the water, why are you hiding? Do you think Xing Zhengyu will eat you? He wouldn't dare. If he did, I'd smash his bones to pieces."

"I saw him furtively taking out his phone to answer a call, so I hid."

At that moment, the light from Xing Zhengyu's phone was on, allowing Luo Huai to clearly see his expression.

To answer a phone call, one not only has to leave the room, but also looks around to see if anyone is getting up at night. What else could it be but sneaking around?

She leaned closer to listen.

"I didn't hear what the other person was saying, but I heard him repeatedly reminding the other person not to contact him easily. He also said that he had transferred a lot of money to the person on the phone over the past three years, asking if they were short of money. The other person probably said no, and then made other requests, which he directly refused. That's when Pei Youyou arrived, and I hurriedly went back to hide."

He dodged and bumped into Xing Yanzhao.

My forehead bumped into his firm chest muscles, and it still hurts a little.

Luo Huai raised his hand to rub it, and Xing Yanzhao fell into deep thought.

"What are you thinking?"

"Can't you call for help again?" Xing Yanzhao looked at her, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Luo Huai had been called upon by him several times, and he greeted him skillfully: "Brother Zhao."

Xing Yanzhao replied to her, "I'm wondering if the person who called him is surnamed Lin."

Luo Huai remembered that he had said his original name was Lin Yanzhao, which meant that his adoptive parents' surname was Lin.

If the person who called Xing Zhengyu was his biological parents, and they mentioned three years ago, it means that Xing Zhengyu knew he wasn't the Xing family's biological son three years ago, but the truth only came to light a month ago.

Thinking hard.

Xing Yanzhao told her to go back to her room, "I'll take care of the water; it definitely won't burn you this time."

Luo Huai nodded, and as soon as he sat down, he realized that the cup was still in his hand. He wanted to chase after him, but the person had already disappeared.

Long legs mean you can walk fast.

They'll be back soon.

Xing Yanzhao carried the entire water purifier up and placed it against the wall. He rested his elbow on the purifier and raised his chin at her, saying, "Come on, drink whatever you like, whether it's hot or cold."

Luo Huai: "..."

She took her water glass and went over, filling it as she asked, "Are you still moving it downstairs?"

"No need, the Xing family is so wealthy." It's just that the Xing family doesn't take Xing Yanzhao seriously and doesn't fully furnish his room.

Xing Yanzhao himself was used to being rough and didn't make things difficult for anyone in this regard. If he did, it would be the servants below who would get scolded, which was pointless.

He only does things that truly annoy the Xing family.

Luo Huai's eyes darted around, and he thought about these things as well. The room's furnishings were indeed rather unsatisfactory.

She had seen Pei Youyou's princess room and Pei Yuanzhou's meticulously decorated room, which was filled with many collectibles.

"I'll make a phone call." Xing Yanzhao went to the balcony, intending to ask Kuang Ye to check if Xing Zhengyu had any previous dealings with the Lin family. As soon as the call connected, he roared again.

"Again!"

"Is my sister-in-law a human being while we are livestock?!"

"You feel sorry for your sister-in-law, but can't you also feel sorry for my brothers?"

"Don't even think about it! I'm not going."

Beep. The other party has hung up.

Xing Yanzhao: "..."

How come this kid has an even bigger temper than him?

They've gone too far with the teaching.

Seeing him staring at his phone with a furrowed brow, Luo Huai slowly walked over and asked, "Is it not going well?"

“He was disturbed while he was sleeping, and he took it out on me,” Xing Yanzhao cursed. “You brat.”

"Then I'm going to sleep." Luo Huai returned to bed, took off his shoes, lay flat on his side, pulled the blanket over himself, and looked like a stiff, obedient baby.

Xing Yanzhao chuckled: "You're afraid of me sleeping on the sofa?"

"No," Luo Huai said in a low voice.

Xing Yanzhao didn't hear clearly, reached out and turned off the light, then lay down on the sofa, using one hand as a pillow and the other hand to pull the blanket.

The sofa is wide enough for him to lie down.

But it's not long enough.

Xing Yanzhao's legs were either bent, hanging on the sofa, or placed on the floor.

He closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Luo Huai couldn't fall asleep no matter what, and didn't dare to turn over for fear of waking the person on the sofa.

She originally wanted to sleep on the sofa herself, as it was quite large for her.

Xing Yanzhao wouldn't allow it, and Luo Huai couldn't say a word.

She knew from the first day they met that the man was a domineering type.

How about we buy a bigger sofa?

When that didn't work, the Xing family asked what to do.

So you're saying the sofa is bad?

Everything the Xing family uses is good.

Luo Huai was so worried that he actually fell asleep.

She opened her eyes at 6:02 a.m., and she kept remembering that the Xing family had breakfast at 7:00 a.m.

The person on the sofa was still asleep. Luo Huai tiptoed out of bed and glanced at Xing Yanzhao as she went to the bathroom. He wasn't so fierce now that he was asleep.

I accidentally noticed the raised bump.

Luo Huai thought to himself, "It's still fierce."

So much so that even while brushing her teeth, the image kept replaying in her mind, even bringing to mind the scene from the previous night, and she almost choked on the toothpaste foam.

I tried to hold it in at first, but then I couldn't help it.

The man coughed twice, sat up on the sofa, and went to the bathroom door.

Luo Huai smiled sheepishly, but then choked on his laughter.

The man leaned against the door, watching her leisurely as she drank water and spat.

Then I asked, "Do I need to teach you how to brush your teeth?"

Luo Huai shook his head and stepped aside for him.

Xing Yanzhao stepped over, reached out and touched his stubble, sprayed some foam on it, and picked up a razor to shave it little by little. Luo Huai continued brushing his teeth, and the two remained at peace.

As Xing Yanzhao went downstairs for breakfast, he waved to the servants.

"Young Master."

"Buy a sofa bed and deliver it to our room."

Young Master Xing remained calm and composed, while the servants glanced at him and his wife.

"Yes, young master."

Luo Huai felt uncomfortable drinking water.

"Why did you buy a sofa?" Pei Youyou asked, her face flushed as she walked downstairs, arm in arm with Xing Zhengyu. "Are you two sleeping in separate beds, brother and sister-in-law?"

Xing Yanzhao looked up: "We're happy to mess around on the sofa, is it any of our business?"

"Cough! Cough cough..." Luo Huai choked again.
