After all, how could she still face him after confessing such a shameful thing?
After a while, Xu Wanwan looked at the words on the page. Her vision was a little blurry. She yawned and propped up her chin as she persevered.
Time trickled by slowly. It was stormy outside, but inside the room, it was quiet and peaceful.
Xu Wanwan liked this kind of atmosphere; hearing the sound of Li Jingran tapping on the keyboard gave her a sense of security.
She was a little tired, so she simply leaned down on the table and closed her eyes.
When Li Jingran finished his work, he took a look at the girl, who had long fallen asleep.
He gently placed the girl on the bed and covered her with the blanket before lying down beside her.
‘That night, Xu Wanwan slept exceptionally peacefully.
She remembered that the doll on her bed did not have such a realistic feeling.
So, she slowly moved her hand down and touched it back and forth.
Li Jingran felt the girl’s restless little hands moving around his body. With his body seemingly heating, he frowned and held her arm.
“Why are you moving around?”
Having just woken up, his voice was hoarse and languid. When Xu Wanwan heard his voice, she shivered and immediately opened her eyes.
She stared at the man and asked in surprise, “Why am I here?”
Li Jingran moved her hand away from his body and got up to put on his coat.
“You fell asleep in the study last night.”
Xu Wanwan quickly got up from the bed and recalled what she had done just now. Her face was completely red.
“I didn’t do it on purpose!” She jumped down from the bed barefooted and said in a panic, “I was dreaming!”
LiJingran smiled. “Why are you so excited?”
He bent over and handed her the slippers by the bed.
“The floor is cold, put them on.”
Xu Wanwan was even more embarrassed. She stepped on the ground with her toes, put on the slippers, and slipped away.
Li Jingran looked at the girl’s retreating figure and felt happy.
He could still recall the warmth of her palm. This feeling was actually not bad.
After Xu Wanwan’s quick escape, she ran to Li Jingran’s study room and quickly packed her bag.
She washed up casually and rushed downstairs.
“Brother, why did you let Xu Wanwan go back to the Li family house again?!”
Downstairs, Li Xuyi was standing in the middle of the hall, arguing with Li Jingran about something.
“Don’t you know that Dad has a bad heart? If he finds out that you’re with Xu Wanwan again, he’ll definitely be angry!”
LiJingran said coldly, “This is my house. It’s not your place to make decisions.”
“What do you mean by yours? She doesn’t belong to anyone!” Li Xuyi argued indignantly. “Besides, you’re already engaged. Why are you still pestering her?”
“From now on, if you continue to meddle in other people’s business, I can guarantee that your club abroad will be completely stopped.”
Li Xuyi was not someone to be trifled with. He said hatefully, “As you wish!”
“Tl go tell Dad right now that you’ve brought Xu Wanwan home Again. If you don’t care about his health, then you’ll have to go against me!”
Li Xuyi saw Xu Wanwan, and his tone became a little better. “Then you should follow me back obediently. I won’t pursue the matter anymore.”
Xu Wanwan frowned and subconsciously looked at Li Jingran.
The next second—
Li Jingran’s big palm grabbed her waist and looked at Li Xuyi. He said coldly, “She’s already mine. Don’t you understand?”
Xu Wanwan blushed, but she didn’t deny it anymore.
She knew that if she continued to deny it, Li Xuyi would definitely have a big fight with Li Jingran.
Then things would be difficult.
“Xu Wanwan, why are you confused again?” Li Xuyi took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress his emotions.
“Have you forgotten that my brother is engaged to someone? Do you want to see him betray his family for you?”
“Besides, even if you follow me, you won’t feel wronged, right? Whatever my brother can give you, I can do it too!”
Hearing the girl’s words, Li Jingran curled his lips in satisfaction.
His efforts in persuading Xu Wanwan were not in vain.
Li Xuyi could do nothing about Xu Wanwan, so he could only vent his anger on Li Jingran.
Women were very stingy. There was no room for two tigers in one mountain. Li Jingran would have to bear the consequences from now on!
Thinking of this, Li Xuyi felt a little better.
Before he left, he softened his tone and said to Xu Wanwan patiently, “Come back to me when you’ve thought it through.”
“Lwon’t go back with you.”
In front of Li Jingran, Xu Wanwan rejected him without hesitation.
After Li Xuyi left, Li Jingran was in a good mood. He asked unintentionally, “Is what you said true?”
The corners of his lips twitched slightly. He didn’t want to show how happy he looked, so he pointed at the clock on the wall and pretended to be serious. “You’re going to be late again..”
