Chapter 2851: Eyesores

"Okay, I’m hanging up now, goodbye."

"Goodbye." Li Mingxi hung up the phone and looked at Xiao Lang.

Xiao Lang didn’t speak, so Li Mingxi had to start the conversation: "Wen Ning is coming, I’m going to stay over there for a few days first. Don’t worry, I won’t break the agreement. I’ll make up the remaining days to you after Wen Ning leaves."

"Do you think that’s what I care about?" Xiao Lang retorted.

"No matter what you care about, I can’t break the agreement. I will wait until the agreement is over, and I’ll pay you back everything I owe you..."

Xiao Lang laughed coldly in his heart; what he wanted, she could never repay.

"Go ahead, I’ll cooperate with you, and I don’t want extra agreement time either," Xiao Lang suddenly said.

Li Mingxi looked at him in surprise: "You..."

"I’m giving in, I don’t want to make things so difficult for you. For the remaining time, you do whatever you think is right. The impression I’ve left you is already bad enough; I don’t want you to hate me even more."

In truth, he also couldn’t bring himself to truly hurt her.

Even though he was reluctant to see her leave right now, keeping her here would only make her suffer more.

Li Mingxi bit her lip and responded gratefully, "Thank you..."

"No, I’ve always been making things difficult for you, don’t thank me," Xiao Lang’s voice was deep.

"I..." Li Mingxi hesitated, "Tomorrow I’m planning to go on a business trip to H City. I’ve heard the scenery there is beautiful, so I’ll be going there to enjoy it alone for a few days."

Xiao Lang met her twinkling eyes, and suddenly he was enlightened, understanding her meaning.

His heart, originally at rock-bottom, instantly soared to Heaven.

Xiao Lang pulled her close and kissed her fiercely.

Li Mingxi was kissed breathless, feeling like she’d suffocate.

Xiao Lang released her lips and kissed her neck eagerly.

"Mingxi, I want you—" he breathed heavily.

Li Mingxi firmly pushed him away: "No... Wen Ning will be arriving soon..."

Xiao Lang cursed under his breath, exerting significant effort to stop.

Holding her tightly, he grumbled, "I really wish that the nuisance would stay far away from us."

Li Mingxi almost laughed.

The nuisance, aside from Wen Ning, did it also include Li Qian?

...

With Xiao Lang’s help, Li Mingxi managed to move all her things back to her own apartment.

After tidying up, Wen Ning was about to arrive.

Yet Xiao Lang was loitering, comfortably seated on her couch.

Li Mingxi’s couch was soft and large.

No matter who sat on it, they wouldn’t want to move.

"Wen Ning is coming, why are you still here?" Li Mingxi went to push him.

Xiao Lang pulled her into his lap, where she sat, held tightly.

"She can come. She’s allowed to visit; am I not allowed to visit?"

Li Mingxi laughed, "You’re a man! Just us two, what will others think?"

"Let her think whatever she wants, as long as we have a clear conscience," Xiao Lang said seriously, but his hands were not so serious.

Li Mingxi moved his hand away from her chest.

"Alright, you should go back; you can come once she’s here."

Xiao Lang didn’t want to leave; he was truly displeased with Wen Ning.

It was all her fault that he couldn’t be completely uninhibited in front of Li Mingxi.

But he couldn’t resist Li Mingxi, and in the end, he was pushed out by her.

After Xiao Lang left, Li Mingxi hurried to take a shower, ensuring there were no visible marks on her body, which made her feel much more at ease.
