Qin Yunxi received an invitation from a friend of a friend of a friend to a high-end private pool party that night.
If it were in the past, he would have gone without a second thought.
Long legs, big waves, fair skin, and beautiful looks; hunting for women was one of his many hobbies.
Didn't the ancient Chinese have a saying— "After satiety, one thinks of lust"?
And another saying— "Food and sex are natural"?
These perfectly expressed the ancient people's understanding of human nature and their eternal, great wisdom.
Therefore, Qin Yunxi never controlled his desires, whether physiological or psychological.
But not now, he was a married man.
He had to restrain himself for his wife.
"Forget it, I have an appointment to discuss something important later," Qin Yunxi refused.
The person was very regretful, "Alas, what a pity. The organizer of this party is a prominent figure in the New York fashion scene, Caroline. She's incredibly stunning and voluptuous. I was going to introduce her to you—"
Qin Yunxi interrupted, "What? Caroline?" Was it the one he knew?
The person replied, "Yes, a super hot fashion designer. What, are you interested?"
Qin Yunxi pondered for a moment, "Do you have an invitation?"
Wasn't Caroline with Du Ruoxin? Why would she be hosting a pool party?
He felt something was off.
The person said, "Yes, I'll give it to you."
Qin Yunxi didn't go immediately after receiving the invitation, but when he learned that Grace and Du Ruoxin were also going, he spat out a mouthful of air.
This Caroline!
Could it be that she was hosting a pool party to find a new man for Grace?
Damn it!
How dare she!
Recalling the unpleasant conversation at the Christiano estate, Qin Yunxi rushed to the scene as quickly as possible.
If it was to provoke him, to make him give up pursuing her, and Grace found any man to cook raw rice into cooked rice...
No!
He would kill!
He had to keep an eye on his wife; anyone who dared to covet her would face his gun!
At the lively pool party, men and women mingled in pairs, swaying their bodies and dancing wildly.
When Christiano walked in, his brow furrowed repeatedly.
This—
The scene—
Was truly mind-boggling!
Dressed in a white shirt and trousers, he looked out of place and discordant amidst the exposed and unrestrained crowd.
Everyone cast scrutinizing glances his way, but no one dared to approach.
The reason was the several fierce-looking bodyguards armed with guns behind him, who were incredibly intimidating.
Christiano walked directly towards Du Ruoxin.
Du Ruoxin had already seen her elder brother. "Hi."
She waved at him.
Christiano's murderous expression completely vanished when he saw the woman wearing a conservative one-piece swimsuit that revealed no skin.
He returned to his gentle and amiable demeanor.
He sat next to Du Ruoxin, his voice low and husky, "Are you bored being alone?"
He had left the villa for a business dinner in the afternoon.
Du Ruoxin, eating fruit, mumbled indistinctly, "I was bored staying in the villa, so I came out for some fresh air."
Christiano: ...This is fresh air?
Fortunately, he had always had bodyguards following her, so no man dared to harbor intentions towards her.
Christiano glanced at his watch. "It's ten ten. Aren't you going home to sleep?"
Du Ruoxin replied, "I'll play a bit longer and leave at midnight sharp."
Christiano frowned. "The doctor told you to sleep and wake early."
Du Ruoxin became a little impatient. "The doctor also told me to keep my mood happy."
Christiano: "—"
Du Ruoxin continued, "Alright, alright, I'm not going clubbing or anything."
Seeing the two in a stalemate, Caroline received news of Qin Yunxi's arrival and came running. "Grace, let's go, let's go, he's here, quickly hide."
Grace stood up. "Oh."
Christiano glanced in the direction where the two were hastily leaving, lost in thought. "Qin Yunxi?"
What were they—
Plotting?
