1609 Something Is Wrong 1
Looking at Xia Xibei being so calm, Dolores couldn’t help but wonder if she really hadn’t rested well last night.
“Oh yes, the tea I gave you has a little sleep-aiding effect!”
Xia Xibei added, “After drinking this tea, you will sleep very well! Did you sleep well?”
Seeing Xia Xibei so even-tempered and innocent, Dolores did not think deeper and really thought that the effect of this herbal tea to help sleep was so obvious.
“I slept pretty well.”
“That’s good,” Xia Xibei nodded. “Come on, let’s eat something!”
“Alright…”
While eating, Xia Xibei still had the same attitude as before and did not seem off in any way. This also quieted the suspicion in Dolores’ mind.
Moreover, she felt that Xia Xibei’s personality was really quite good.
This girl seemed to be better than what the media said!
How come she didn’t find Xia Xibei so outstanding and good before?
How come she did not like Xia Xibei before?
Thinking about it, Dolores couldn’t help but doubt her own judgment.
After dinner, Dolores was taken back to her house by car.
By now, there was someone else in the house.
Looking at this plain and slightly old man, Dolores’ heart could not repress a surge of revulsion.
How was this man… So old?
Moreover, he looked way too ordinary!
Dolores had always valued the looks of the people around her, but this man was clearly not handsome!
Why did she think he was fantastic before?
Dolores was not a young girl. After all these years, she had long understood the cruelty of reality.
In a relationship, when one party was older and more experienced than the other, it was easy to be more dominant in the relationship.
In other words, one party could be controlled by the other.
Thinking back over the years, Dolores wondered what was going on there.
Dolores’s mind tumbled with all kinds of unanswered questions, and she stood still.
“Dolores?”
Jiang Rongguang looked at the silent Dolores and couldn’t help but wonder.
“Oh!”
Dolores came back to her senses and slowly walked over.
“You went to Qi Xibei’s house today?”
“Yes,” Dolores nodded, but carefully pulled away from the man.
Jiang Rongguang didn’t notice that Dolores was out of sorts and continued to ask, “Did you see anyone unusual?”
“Anyone unusual?” Dolores thought about it and shook her head. “No. It was just me and her. There was not even a maid.”
Jiang Rongguang cursed in a low voice, annoyed.
Although Xia Xibei had invited Dolores into her home, she was also guarded against her.
It seemed that the two were still not close enough.
“It’s okay. You should try to get closer to her.”
He reached for Dolores’ waist and laughed, “Don’t worry. No matter what, I love you the most.”
When his hand first touched hers, Dolores couldn’t help but stiffen for a moment.
When she heard the affectionate words he said, she stiffened even more.
There were goosebumps on her.
She didn’t understand what she had been thinking all these years. Why was she with him?
Jiang Rongguang didn’t notice her rejection. After all, the compulsion in Dolores’ body didn’t move, so he wouldn’t suspect in that direction.
“Okay, I understand.” Dolores controlled herself and pushed Jiang Rongguang away. “I’ll go take a shower first.”
“Okay, I’ll wait for you,” Jiang Rongguang winked at her ambiguously.
Dolores stiffened for a moment before opening her mouth, “I… I am a little tired today.”
Jiang Rongguang nodded helplessly, “Okay then, I’ll reward you next time.”
Dolores’ smile froze.
