Chapter 329 - 168: Who Was It Last Night Shouting ’I’m Dying, I’m Dying’?
Chapter 329 - 168: Who Was It Last Night Shouting ’I’m Dying, I’m Dying’?
The spring wind blew gently through the night, as fine as rain.
Compared to the careful exploration of the previous night, Xu Yun was now on a familiar path, confidently enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way.
And Xino, too, felt the taste of being loved.
’So this is love between a man and a woman. It’s so captivating, I completely forgot about my treatment.’
After the storm had passed and the skies cleared...
Xino finally remembered the important matter at hand. Lying in bed, she looked down and then measured with her hand.
’It really seems a little bigger.’
She happily told Xu Yun, who was beside her, "It’s bigger! I feel like it’s really a little bigger than before."
"Is that so? Looks like my skills are pretty good, then."
Seeing her adorable expression, Xu Yun couldn’t help but laugh. "It worked after just one session."
"How about we go for another round?" Xino asked, her face full of anticipation.
Faced with Xino’s enthusiasm, Xu Yun could only nod in agreement. "Alright. For you, I’ll put in some overtime."
"Thanks for your hard work. Mwah!"
...
You can’t trust a woman’s words.
Again and again, Xu Yun worked overtime all night long, day and night without rest.
Not even a capitalist could be as ruthless as she was.
They didn’t stop until just before dawn.
Xino was a classic case of someone who was bad at the game but loved to play, desperate to turn her B+ into a C+ in a single night before she would even think of stopping.
The exhausted pair slept for a few hours, not waking up until the afternoon.
Xu Yun got up and quickly performed a set of the Eight Pieces of Brocade to recover some health.
He returned to the bedroom and asked with a deliberate smile, "Want to go again?"
"No more."
Xino shook her head in terror. "Are you trying to kill me?"
"And who was it last night crying out, ’I’m dying, I’m dying’?"
"Get lost..."
Hearing this, Xino immediately pulled the covers over her head.
’Thinking about how she acted last night was mortifying.’
Seeing her reaction, Xu Yun said, "Rest up and then get out of bed. I’ll have some food sent to the room."
"Mm, I want extra meat," came Xino’s muffled voice from under the covers.
Her stomach was already rumbling with hunger; last night’s exercise had burned a lot of energy.
Xu Yun called the front desk.
A short while later, the manager personally arrived, pushing a room service cart. In addition to a lavish lunch, there were also two exquisite sets of afternoon tea pastries.
As he was leaving, the lobby manager added, "Mr. Xu, that person who came to disturb you yesterday has been waiting in the lobby since last night."
"Alright, I understand. Thank you."
Xu Yun acknowledged him. After seeing the client manager out, Xino, who had gotten out of bed, walked out barefoot in her pajamas.
"Hungry? Come and eat."
Xu Yun helped her set her plate and utensils. "It’s all meat. You need to replenish your strength."
"You’re the one who needs to replenish his strength."
Xino stuck out her tongue playfully. "I know you must be sore all over. Don’t act tough, I won’t laugh at you."
"Then let’s go again."
Xu Yun challenged her. "I’ll show you just how strong your man is!"
"I’m scared of you, alright?"
Seeing that he looked ready to make a move, Xino was terrified and immediately backed down, picking up her knife and fork to start on her steak.
Watching Xino wolf down her food as if she hadn’t eaten in days, Xu Yun generously gave her his own dessert after the meal.
’Besides, he didn’t like sweets anyway.’
"If you like it, have more."
"Thank you."
"When are you planning to head back?" Xino asked as she ate.
"Today, probably."
Xu Yun asked back, "What about you? Coming with me?"
"I still have some business to take care of, so I’ll be staying for another day or two."
Thinking of the task her older brother had given her, Xino said reluctantly, "So I can’t go back with you. I’ll come find you when I’m back."
...
Xu Yun’s return flight was booked for a little after 3:00 PM.
To avoid the person waiting downstairs, the two of them took a private elevator directly to the parking garage, where Xino drove Xu Yun to the airport in her Ferrari.
At the airport, as they were saying their goodbyes, Xu Yun took out a portion of tea he had already divided and handed it to Xino.
"Take this tea back for your father."
"???"
Xino’s jaw dropped in surprise. She shook her head. "You spent 18 million on this! I can’t take it."
"It’s not the whole thing. I wouldn’t be able to part with all of it."
Xu Yun explained with a smile, "I’ve already divided the tea into five portions. This is only 20 grams."
’But even so, 20 grams of this tea was still worth around 3.5 million.’
’He gave it away just like that, without the slightest hesitation.’
’To her, it was a clear sign of how much Xu Yun liked her.’
"Are you trying to butter up my dad already?"
"Not buttering him up, just being polite."
Xu Yun lowered his voice. "I slept with the man’s precious daughter without a word to him. I should at least make a gesture."
"..." Xino blushed.
"It’s not much, I know, but think of it as a sample. Your dad should like it; otherwise, he wouldn’t have had you bid as high as 8 million for it."
"In that case, I’ll thank you on my dad’s behalf." Xino accepted it with a smile, no longer feeling awkward.
’In her mind, she and Xu Yun were already a unit; she shouldn’t let money create a distance between them.’
When the boarding call was announced, Xino was reluctant to let him go, acting as if they might never see each other again.
She said sadly, "Xu Yun, what am I going to do? We haven’t even parted yet, and I already miss you."
"I’ll miss you, too." Xu Yun gave her a hug and another kiss before heading toward the boarding gate.
Xino stood rooted to the spot, watching until he disappeared from sight before turning to head back to the hotel.
’I’m not doing anything else today. I’m just going to go back and get some more sleep.’
As Xu Yun began his journey back to Jiangcheng and Xino went back to sleep, a story about the auction suddenly began to circulate and gain traction online.
