Xuanyuan Mo was leaning against the bedside, holding a brochure in his hand and reading it with relish.

With a squeak, the door was opened. Duanmu Xi carried a dish of dessert and walked inside.

Duanmu Xi glimpsed the red figure leaning against the bedside and put the dessert on the table.

“Snow, I’ve made some osmanthus cake. Would you like to try it?”

Then, Duanmu Xi picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and had a bite. She nodded inwardly and found it taste good. It appeared that she didn’t lag behind in her cooking skills. She meant to take some into the palace for Third Master. She wondered whether Third Master was back or not.

“Snow, would you like…” Duanmu Xi didn’t hear Xuanyuan Mo’s answer so she turned to look inside.

When she saw clearly what Xuanyuan Mo was holding in his hand, Duanmu Xi’s voice stopped at once and the osmanthus cake also dropped to the ground from her hand.

After being dazed for a while, Duanmu Xi started coughing. It was hard to tell whether she got choked or felt ashamed. Her face was all red now.

Hearing her cough, Xuanyuan Mo slightly knitted his eyebrows and gracefully rose. He walked to Duanmu Xi and stroked her back gently.

“Why are you acting like a baby? How can you get choked by eating?”

His husky voice contained deep affection.

Duanmu Xi stared at the brochure in Xuanyuan Mo’s hand. Her face was burning hotter. Damn. How could she totally forget the brochure? This was so embarrassing.

Feeling Duanmu Xi’s gaze, Xuanyuan Mo slightly curled his lips, his amber eyes full of bantering.

“This brochure is not bad. Would you like to read it?” Xuanyuan Mo said and then raised the brochure.

Hearing Xuanyuan Mo’s bantering, Duanmu Xi blushed again.

Seeing the words on the brochure, Duanmu Xi directly went forward and seized it regardless of shyness.

“Give it back to me.”

Seeing Duanmu Xi’s anxious look, Xuanyuan Mo smiled. He raised the brochure, “I did forget that this brochure was yours. I suppose you must have read it.”

“I…” Duanmu Xi was somewhat anxious to hear that and wanted to refute but she recalled that she had taken a glance at it indeed. At the thought of the picture she glimpsed that day, she felt a sensation. Now, her face became as red as a cooked shrimp. Even her neck and earlobes were so red that they seemed to bleed.

Staring at the fascinating look of Duanmu Xi, Xuanyuan Mo felt a heatwave welling up in his heart and a sensation in his lower abdomen with his eyes darkening. Dang. He had read the brochure for such a long time but he was not affected at all. Now, only a facial expression of hers could make him react so violently. He directly went forward, carried Duanmu Xi in his arms and walked to the bedside.

Duanmu Xi was shocked and subconsciously started to struggle.

Xuanyuan Mo reached out his hand to pat Duanmu Xi’s butt gently, “If you struggle again, I’ll do it right now.”

His husky voice was somewhat threatening.

Duanmu Xi quieted down instantly. Her whole face was buried in Xuanyuan Mo’s arms. She clutched his clothes tightly and felt regretful. How could she forget such an important thing? It was Lian’er’s fault. How could Lian’er send such a thing to her? Now she was messed up. She couldn’t explain it at all.

Xuanyuan Mo directly carried Duanmu Xi onto the bed and then with a flick of his sleeve, the door was closed.

“Should you explain the origin of the brochure to me?”

His voice was gentle but Duanmu Xi subconsciously shuddered. Looking at the brochure in Xuanyuan Mo’s hand, Duanmu Xi swallowed and braced herself to say with difficulty, “Could you return it to me first?”

Xuanyuan Mo cracked a sinister smile and shook the brochure in his hand, “Do you want to read it again? I don’t know you have such a special hobby. It’s my fault. However, since you like it, we can study it together.”

Meanwhile, he kept pressing down on Duanmu Xi like a cheetah approaching its prey nonstop.

Duanmu Xi struggled to move backward and meanwhile explained anxiously, “I don’t want to read it. I only want to put it away. I mean it. Please believe me.”

Duanmu Xi’s startled eyes just aroused the original bestial nature in Xuanyuan Mo. He directly towered over Duanmu Xi and whispered to her ear, “Don’t think about reading the brochure. I’ll confiscate it. However, I’ve finished reading the brochure. So, I won’t mind demonstrating it to you.”

His husky and enchanting voice went through Duanmu Xi’s ears into her heart and then spread outward slowly.

Duanmu Xi didn’t come to her senses until she felt a chill and moisture on her ear. She pressed her hands on Xuanyuan Mo’s chest and then stuttered, “No…I don’t need…the demonstration.”

Gee. If he really demonstrated it to her, she would be unimaginably exhausted. Besides, it was clear that he would get the benefits. Why did he make it sound like he was sacrificing something?

When Xuanyuan Mo heard her words, his sinister smile was gone. He even gave her his puppy dog eyes.

“Are you loathing me? You would rather read the brochure than let me demonstrate it to you.” His voice was full of grievances as if he had been bullied.

Duanmu Xi twitched her lips rigidly. He was so good at pretending. He must be able to win the Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role if he were in modern times.

She raised her face and cracked a smile, “How can I loathe you? I love you best. Yet, can we not mention the brochure? Let it go. Okay?”

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Mo had a glint of laughter in his amber eyes. How interesting she was! She wanted him to let her go but she told him to let the brochure go instead.

“Fine. For your sake, I’ll let it go then!”

Duanmu Xi’s lips curved into a big smile. She nodded heavily and said, “That’s right. The brochure is very innocent.”

Back then, she threw it away only after glancing at it. She was so innocent.

Seeing Duanmu Xi’s cute look, Xuanyuan Mo was turned on and bent down to whisper to her ear again, “Xi, let’s do it now!”

Duanmu Xi looked away bashfully, “Now…it’s daytime.”

She didn’t know how to stop him. They were married. They would sleep together sooner or later. Nevertheless, she was worried too. What if he found that she was not a virgin now?

Her virginity was lost to him indeed but now, he had forgotten her and what they did that night. She was reluctant to give up the current affection with him. She hated it if the affection they finally had these years was back to square one. She couldn’t bear to see him look at her indifferently and treat her aloofly.

Xuanyuan Mo didn’t know Duanmu Xi’s thoughts and only thought that she was shy. He hung his head and kissed her clean forehead, “Don’t be afraid. No one will come here.”

Even though it was in the daytime, no one dared to come into Xuelan House at will.

Then, Xuanyuan Mo started to kiss Duanmu Xi again and put his hand on her body again. Her tender and fair skin made him unable to stop at all. Never had he known that a woman’s body could be so amazing.

Duanmu Xi tried her best to compose herself and meanwhile thought of a solution.

“Snow, I got out of the mansion this afternoon. It was bustling in the street…”

“Snow, my friend Ye’er is pregnant…”

“Snow, a maid called Wen’er in our mansion is sick. I let her have three days off…”

“Snow, the cat that often comes to our mansion to steal food gave birth to three cute kittens in the Southern Courtyard…”

This was the way Duanmu Xi came up with to distract his attention but it didn’t seem to work. No matter what she said, Xuanyuan Mo just didn’t answer or respond. He still focused on what he was doing.

“Well… Snow… Stop for a while. Listen to me first.” Duanmu Xi cupped the head buried in her chest, “Snow… Phoenix Five told me that Zhuge Weiming and Lian Zhengyu had left Baihu today.”

Hearing Lian Zhengyu’s name, Xuanyuan Mo finally hedged and slightly knitted his eyebrows. A shimmer of fierceness flashed across his eyes. If he remembered it correctly, that man seemed to have a crush on his wife.

His lips curved into a sinister smile. He bent down to gently bite Duanmu Xi’s earlobe as if punishing her, “You can still think of other men now. It seems that I haven’t worked hard enough yet.”

His husky voice was mixed with sinister intent.

Xuanyuan Mo buried his head on her chest again and planted more passionate kisses.

Bursts of sensation in Duanmu Xi’s body made her remorseful. What was her problem? Why did she mention them? Wasn’t this adding fuel to fire?

“Snow… You…”

The moment Duanmu Xi parted her lips, her lips were captured by Xuanyuan Mo again.
