As soon as Rosiley left, the room fell into silence.
Yayoi leaned against the head of the bed and drank the water.
Morphy stared at her for a long time before he asked softly, “Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Tell you what?” Yayoi looked at him in confusion.
“Tell me you were in a bad mood.”
Yayoi curled her lips and said, “You’re busy with family matters, aren’t you? I don’t want to worry you anymore.”
“But now you worry me.” Morphy smiled helplessly. “Yayoi, we are lovers. I don’t want you to be so sensible. I will feel that I’m useless to be your boyfriend.”
“No, Morphy.” Yayoi smiled bitterly, “You have to worry about your grandfather and you have no time to care about me. So I can only treat myself alone.”
“Are you complaining about me?” Morphy asked tentatively.
Yayoi raised her eyebrows, “If I say yes, what will you do?”
“What will I do?” Morphy pretended to think seriously. A gentle smile appeared on his handsome face, and he looked at her in a gentle manner. He said softly, “I will be very happy, because I will have the feeling that you treat me as your boyfriend.”
Yayoi chuckled, staring at him with affection.
Morphy gently stroked her head with a faint smile on the corner of his lips. “Yayoi, I have some good news for you.”
“What’s it? Did your grandfather allow us to be together?” Yayoi thought it was the only good news for her, and other things were not good news.
Morphy laughed and pinched her nose dotingly. “He will allow soon.”
“Really?” Yayoi widened her eyes in disbelief. “You didn’t coax me just to make me happy, did you?”
“No.” Morphy smiled and shook his head, “Actually, Xu Wenjing volunteered to dissolve the engagement.”
“Xu Wenjing?” Yayoi was more shocked. She reached out to touch Morphy’s forehead and frowned, “Morphy, you’re not having a fever, right?”
Morphy helplessly took her hand away and said. “No. I’m telling the truth. Xu Wenjing said that in front of my grandpa and me.”
“It’s impossible!” Yayoi blurted out. She sneered, “Unless the sun rises in the west, she will definitely not take the initiative to annul the engagement.”
“You don’t believe her like that?”
Yayoi pursed her lips. “No, I don’t believe her. And she totally can’t be trusted. Xu Wenjing used money to send me away a few days ago and even threatened me. She would not suddenly be so kind. There’s definitely something wrong with that.”
It was precisely because she had come into contact with Xu Wenjing that she knew that Xu Wenjing was not as gentle and innocent as her appearance. More simply, Xu Wenjing was scheming.
Morphy had to take Xu Wenjing’s words seriously, because both Rosiley and Yayoi were suspecting Xu Wenjing. He wondered if there was something wrong as what Yayoi said.
However, he remembered that when Xu Wenjing proposed to dissolve the engagement, there was nothing suspicious, and he didn’t felt that something was wrong.
Morphy was lost in thought. Yayoi called out, “Morphy…”
Morphy came back to his senses when he heard the voice.
“What’s on your mind?” Yayoi asked.
He smiled and said, “I was just thinking about what you said.”
He held her hand and smiled gently, “Yayoi, regardless of whether Xu Wenjing has a purpose or not, since she propose to dissolve the engagement, I have a chance to make it real.”
Yayoi only looked at him and did not say anything.
He continued, “Yayoi, let’s get married.”
Yayoi’s eyes widened and filled with disbelief. She asked, “What… what are you talking about?”
Did she hear wrong?
Morphy held her hand and kissed it. He looked at her affectionately and repeated word by word, “Let’s get married.”
She didn’t hear wrong.
She pursed her lips tightly and looked into his tender black eyes. She was moved, feeling warm in heart.
Her eyes grew moist. After a long time, she gently nodded, “OK.”
Morphy smiled and held her into his arms tightly, as if he wanted to embed her into his body.
Yayoi quietly leaned against his chest and heard his calm heartbeat. She felt the air was sweet, and she put on a sweet and happy smile.
…
It was true that alcohol caused trouble.
When Ying Xiaoxiao opened her eyes and saw the unfamiliar environment, she was so frightened that she sat up suddenly. A thought flashed through her mind.
She had a one-night stand?
She suddenly felt chilly in her chest.
She looked down stiffly. She was astounded and she quickly grabbed the blanket and covered her naked chest, screaming loudly.
“What’s the matter?”
The door was forcefully pushed open and a panic man rushed in.
Ying Xiaoxiao turned around and saw Corey’s handsome face. Her eyes instantly turned red.
“Corey…”
Seeing that she was crying, Corey hurriedly walked over and asked anxiously, “What happened?”
“I… I…” Ying Xiaoxiao sobbed and her voice was choked.
Corey frowned and asked again, “What exactly happened?”
Ying Xiaoxiao wiped away her tears and sobbed, “I… I… had a one-night stand.”
“One-night stand?” At first, Corey didn’t understand what she meant. When he reacted, he couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Ying Xiaoxiao, who was immersed in her own sorrow, immediately stopped crying. She questioned discontentedly, “What are you laughing at? Is it so funny?”
Corey laughed uncontrollably and pointed at her, “Do you… think you had a one-night stand with someone else?”
Ying Xiaoxiao frowned. Didn’t she?
Seeing her confused expression, Corey laughed even more uncontrollably. His laughter filled the entire room.
Ying Xiaoxiao was angry, “Corey, what do you mean? Are you still my boyfriend? Is it so funny that I have a one-night stand with someone else?”
Corey quickly restrained his laughter, but the corners of his lips were still turning up. He looked at Ying Xiaoxiao, who was angry, and cleared his throat softly. He put on a serious expression and said, “If you really had a one-night stand with someone else, I would kill that man.”
Did he mean that… she didn’t have a one-night stand with anyone else?
But why she was naked?
Thinking about it, she looked down and lifted the blanket. She saw that she was indeed naked, and then she frowned.
Seeing her actions, Corey smiled and said, “Last night, you were drunk and vomited all over your body. I don’t have any women’s clothes here, so… Well, you know.”
She knew?
She didn’t know anything!
“Corey!” Thinking of her embarrassing movement just now, Ying Xiaoxiao angrily picked up the pillow and threw it at Corey.
Corey caught it and said with a smile, “Your clothes are dried. I put them in the bathroom. Get changed and come out.”
Before Ying Xiaoxiao could react, he turned around and left the room.
