Chapter 1290: Then Can We Have a Proper Talk?

Previously, Feng Huaimu extended such an invitation, but at the time, it was stopped by Xuan Ting who sprang out. But now, that guy is no longer around.

Her heart was pounding uncontrollably, as if it was about to leap out of her chest.

"Okay!" Xu Haohao nodded immediately without hesitation, "But... I’ll stay in the guest room."

No need to share a room with him; she wasn’t thick-skinned enough for that.

It was settled like this, Xu Haohao sat in the passenger seat, counting on her fingers the things she needed to bring to Feng Huaimu’s house in Jiang City, wanting to take everything from big to small.

Feng Huaimu noticed her face growing increasingly conflicted through the rearview mirror.

"What’s wrong?" Feng Huaimu asked with concern.

Xu Haohao’s face was full of conflict, she said, "Well... everything about your place is great, except your butler is pretty scary, he’s skin and bones, thin like a skeleton, I’m afraid I’d scream if I bumped into him accidentally."

It’s hard to understand what kind of capability the butler possesses, given his appearance, yet manages to make Feng Huaimu trust him to be a butler, it’s baffling.

Xu Haohao, not wanting to trouble him, patted her chest and said, "I will try to accept it, and definitely won’t be startled!"

Feng Huaimu’s lips curved slightly: "Okay."

*****

Night gradually deepened, Su Li stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, staring unblinkingly at the dried yellow leaves falling piece by piece from the sky, when suddenly a warmth enveloped her shoulders.

"Su Li, go back and rest now."

The shoulder that had been relaxed instantly tensed under his fingers, Su Li stepped back a few paces in shock, like a frightened hedgehog with all its quills standing on end.

Su Li bit her pale lips, saying, "I want... let’s sleep in separate rooms."

Feng Huaijin’s eyes narrowed instantly: "What did you say?"

"Separate rooms... yes, separate rooms. I’m not comfortable sharing a room with you right now." Su Li tried to sound assertive, but dared not meet his eyes.

"Then it’s decided, we’ll sleep in separate rooms. I’ll have the servants move your things to the room opposite." Su Li said as she motioned to the servants.

The servants, upon hearing Su Li’s instruction, wore knowingly but somewhat enigmatic smiles.

Miss Su Li is someone who needs to go to the hospital for pregnancy care.

The servants laughed quietly and immediately ran off eagerly to help pack things.

Feng Huaijin’s expression visibly turned cold, his indifferent gaze falling on Su Li.

Su Li, increasingly uncomfortable under his piercing gaze, turned to run.

Just after taking two steps, the man behind took a long stride, and with a swift reach, lifted her up.

"Feng Huaijin—what are you doing?"

Feng Huaijin quickly carried her back to the room, coldly throwing a remark at the servants: "No one’s allowed to pack up the things!"

Leaving a stunned group of servants behind.

He carried Su Li swiftly back to the room, kicked the door shut with a loud thud, holding her tightly as he warned, "Su Li, you can vent your anger at me all you want, but don’t mess around with your own health."

Su Li’s eyes instantly reddened, as if she wanted this?

Feng Huaijin stared at the curled-up figure of Su Li, asking, "Shall we talk properly then?"

Su Li was silent for two seconds, then abruptly turned her face away, saying in a muffled voice, "I want to rest."
