It's true . She had never been reduced to such an embarrassingly pathetic state before . It was because of her period that she'd been left in such an awkward situation today .
When Xuxu put on Yan Rusheng's shirt, it covered her thighs .
She didn't take heed of Yan Rusheng's instructions and continued wearing her own panties, but she wore his boxers over it .
She washed her pants and hung it on a hanger to dry by the window . After that, she replaced the bedsheets with a new set and folded up the soiled one, intending to bring it home to wash .
While she was changing the bedsheets, she subconsciously thought of the necklace that was hanging on the headboard .

Xuxu paused and raised her head to look at the words 'A Lifetime' on the pendant . She held it up with her hands and gently stroked the tiny diamonds on the pendant with her thumb .
The dazzling brilliance pierced her eyes .
"I'll give it to you if you like . "
Yan Rusheng had suddenly come in while she wasn't looking . His tone was lazy and nonchalant .
"I don't want it . " With a tinge of guilt, Xuxu let go of the necklace and continued to change the bedsheets .
As she knelt on the bed and bent her waist, the position had lifted her butt up . Under the big loose shirt, the silhouette of her body's curves was partially visible, inviting one to have lustful thoughts .

Yan Rusheng accidentally caught a glimpse . He felt a lump in his throat and had the impulse to hug her from behind .
He quickly shifted his eyes away to divert his attention . "It's certainly not as beautiful as the necklace 'Until The End of Time' . "
As he finished his sentence, he had reached the headboard and pulled down the necklace .
Placing it on his palm, he lowered his head for a moment . After that, he casually threw it on the bedside cabinet as if it wasn't precious or significant to him .
"But you've always hung it there, didn't you?" Xuxu couldn't help but question him .
She instantly regretted it and chided herself . So he hung it in his room—what did that have to do with her?
She sounded a little emotional . Even though Young Master Yan didn't discern the hint of jealousy in her tone, it was enough to put him in a cheery mood .
He took a glance at the necklace once more and said indifferently, "That year, it was almost Chinese Valentine's Day when Wang Haiming gave this necklace to me . He'd personally designed ten similar necklaces, but they weren't put on sale . He gifted the necklaces to all his couple friends . That's why Fang Jiayin also owns a similar necklace . "
Xuxu was stunned upon hearing this . "It was from Wang Haiming?"
Although she didn't associate much with Wang Haiming, she did have some understanding about him because he was a good friend of Yan Rusheng's in B City .
His family owned a corporation dealing with precious stones and jewels . It was one of the leading enterprises in the country's jewelry industry .
If this necklace was from Wang Haiming, then why did Fang Jiayin say that her necklace was a gift from Yan Rusheng on Chinese Valentine's Day? She'd even said that Yan Rusheng had chosen it with her and it was a limited edition item .
Yan Rusheng was pleasantly pleased with her reaction . He smiled slightly and feigned surprise . "Were you thinking otherwise . . . ?"
He was on cloud nine at the thought of her jealousy .
As expected, his conjecture was right . As long as she didn't maintain contact with Jiang Zhuoheng, she'd be able to accept their marriage and get used to being his wife .
This sign of jealousy proves that she's slowly accepting this role, didn't it?
All in all, this is a good start .
Xuxu lowered her eyes and took a quick glance at the necklace . She shrugged her shoulders and shook her head as she replied flippantly, "I'm not thinking of anything . I just felt that Wang Haiming was very generous . Even if his family is in the jewelry business, there's no need for him to do that much . "
