She had lewd thoughts about his body when he wasn't looking?
Xuxu heard his accusation and almost vomited blood due to exasperation . Wasn't she the one who had fallen asleep first?
She had no inkling of anything that happened afterward .
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in your body at all . "
Her eyes swept across Young Master Yan's chest scornfully and she stood up . She adjusted her clothes before striding towards the exit .
Yan Rusheng turned cold because of Xuxu's words . "Then whose body are you interested in?"
He got up and he caught up to her in no time with the advantage of a pair of lanky legs . She grabbed her arm and warned her . "You have to keep in mind that you're my wife now . You can only think of me . "

Xuxu halted and turned around . She lifted her head and looked at him with sparkling eyes . "How about you?"
She had overlooked his feelings and love and tried her best to fit into her role in this marriage .
Why should he care about her feelings and love then?
Recently, both of them were getting immersed in their roles . Shouldn't they continue in this way to sustain this marriage?
He had suddenly customized couple outfits, brought her out for lunch and a movie, and even clarified his rumors with another woman . . .
All these made her overjoyed and left her with hope and expectations .
But she didn't dare to harbor hope easily . To expect him to forget Fang Jiayin whom he had yearned for these years .
She didn't dare to hope that he would be able to forgive her for causing Grandmother's death . Or to hope that he would lessen his loathing towards her all within these few months .

As he had once promised her that they would never be apart .
But he appeared hand in hand with another woman in front of her at the next moment .
She had chased him relentlessly all these years and all these had proven that he had made the promise to the wrong person that night . She was merely a substitute for another woman .
She took a deep breath but spoke lightly . "Yes, without Grandmother, I wouldn't be here today . But I've caused her death and this is what I owed her and the Yan family . I'll try my best to atone for my sin . "
She flung his hand away as she said, "Sorry, but my heart is in my body . It's mine . "
She finished and turned to walk hastily away .
She loved him, but he wasn't everything in her world .
Yan Rusheng's hand hovered in mid-air and he watched Xuxu vanished from his sight . She was prideful, cold and unyielding . She had instantly and callously extinguished his determination and passion to court her .
He thought that her behavior last night had meant that she had accepted him .
That's why he mustered his courage to explain to her and even asked someone for movie tickets .
To his surprise, she only wanted to make amends and even asked him not to get his feelings involved .
He wanted to chase after her and say, 'Wen Xuxu, I'm the one who caused Grandmother's death . You don't owe us anything and you don't need to atone for anything . You can leave now . "
But he remained rooted to the ground; he was afraid that she might really heed his words and never return .
. . .
His car made a turn and entered the courtyard . In a split second, he stopped the car outside the main doors .
The car owner got down and slammed the door behind him .
"Wen Xuxu isn't back yet?" Yan Rusheng asked the butler the moment he entered the house .
He exuded an eerie and chilly aura and his expression was gloomy and dark . The butler shivered a little before answering politely, "Young madam isn't back yet . "
Then a doubt shot across the butler, 'Didn't you go out with Young Madam this morning?'
Yan Rusheng remained mum and changed into his slippers . He strode over to the living room .
He was about to ascend the stairs when a servant called out to him . "Third Young Master . "
He paused as his gaze slowly turned towards the servant .
"A parcel came for the young madam this afternoon . " She held a small box and walked towards him .
