When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase
Chapter 1345: Xi Siyan’s Wounds (5)
However, tonight, Zhou Chengchen’s initiative exceeded Xi Siyan’s expectations. Plus, he had been busy with the company’s affairs, and the two of them hadn’t really spent time together.
Tonight truly counted as their wildest night together.
This endless entanglement lasted until the sky turned white, and finally, unable to resist exhaustion, they fell asleep.
They slept until noon the next day. It was the weekend, theoretically they could skip going to the company, but because of the busy period, Xi Siyan had been on duty almost daily. Today he truly slept in.
Still, Xi Siyan was the first to wake. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Zhou Chengchen’s fluffy little head. After a brief phase of chaos, his mind cleared up.
A smile involuntarily appeared in Xi Siyan’s eyes, and he gently rubbed Zhou Chengchen’s head.
The person in his arms seemed disturbed from a good sleep, furrowed his brow, murmured something, but Xi Siyan didn’t hear clearly.
He shifted slightly, reached for the phone on the nightstand, and checked it. No messages, no missed calls, and the email had no new messages either.
It seemed there’s nothing pressing. Xi Siyan didn’t bother with it, embraced Zhou Chengchen’s soft body, and closed his eyes to rest for a bit.
About half an hour later, Zhou Chengchen finally woke up, nuzzling his head in Xi Siyan’s embrace and raised his eyes in a daze. Soon, he felt something soft pressing onto his forehead.
"Morning."
The brain fresh from sleep took a few seconds to start working, Zhou Chengchen paused for quite a while before smiling and saying, "Morning."
Both of them were awake but too lazy to get up.
This was rare for the always self-disciplined Xi Siyan, but with Zhou Chengchen, everything felt normal.
Zhou Chengchen lay on Xi Siyan’s chest, while Xi Siyan’s fingers entwined with her long hair. Neither spoke for a while.
After a long pause, Xi Siyan spoke, "What happened yesterday?"
"Hmm?"
"You were unusual yesterday, what happened?"
Zhou Chengchen instantly understood Xi Siyan’s meaning and didn’t hide it but hesitated over the wording, before speaking, "After work yesterday, you weren’t around, and your mom came by."
Xi Siyan’s hand was on Zhou Chengchen’s back at the time, and Zhou Chengchen could clearly feel the brief rigidity in Xi Siyan’s hand after she spoke.
Though he quickly returned to normal, that instant stiffness still made Zhou Chengchen’s heart ache.
"What did she say?"
With a deep voice, Xi Siyan asked, and Zhou Chengchen shook her head, "She didn’t manage to say much before Liu Xiaoyu chased her away. Later... I found out some things."
As Zhou Chengchen spoke, she tightened her hold on Xi Siyan’s arm, as if to give him warmth and strength.
Xi Siyan knew precisely what the person in his arms meant; he didn’t ask what she found out, because he could already guess.
He kissed Zhou Chengchen on her hair, "I’m fine, it’s all in the past."
The unpleasantness was already over. To say he’d moved on, Xi Siyan knew he wasn’t so magnanimous yet, but to dwell on it, he didn’t have that kind of leisurely mood either.
