Chapter 219: Chapter 219: Are you so eager to know about the matters between my spouse and me?
Lou Xinyu had just returned home not long ago, and she still felt a dull pain there.
But her heart was brimming with sweetness.
Now hearing the servant say Young Master Xing had arrived, she couldn’t contain her excitement and quickly rushed downstairs.
As soon as she reached the stairs, she saw Xing Chen sitting on the sofa, calmly reading a newspaper.
The servants had retreated, leaving him alone in the vast living room.
The coffee on the nearby table was still steaming, adding to the stillness of the moment.
Such a simple scene was enough to make Lou Xinyu deeply infatuated...
She walked over quickly, instinctively sitting beside Xing Chen and greeting him.
"Brother William, you’re here..."
"Hmm." Xing Chen responded briefly, without even lifting his head, his voice indifferent and emotionless.
He didn’t glance at the woman beside him, totally focused on the financial newspaper in his hand, as if she didn’t exist at all.
Lou Xinyu couldn’t understand this selective ignorance; she had always seen Brother William behave this way, so she thought it was normal for him to treat her like this.
Thus, she still clung to him like she did when she was a child.
"Brother William, last night, we..."
"Miss Lou, do you not know that disturbing others arbitrarily is very rude?" Xing Chen finally spoke with a hint of impatience, interrupting her.
He had disliked this woman since childhood.
He disliked her even when she was very young, so he basically didn’t play with her.
If Lou Xining hadn’t always brought her along, Xing Chen wouldn’t have had any interaction with her.
This dislike persisted even now that they were grown.
If she weren’t Lou Zhaonian’s granddaughter... Xing Chen wouldn’t even bother speaking to her.
Seeing Xing Chen’s cold demeanor, Lou Xinyu was a bit dumbfounded.
The Brother William from last night wasn’t like this.
Lou Xinyu couldn’t understand, her hands twisting her dress until it wrinkled, without her noticing.
But could everything that happened last night really just be ignored?
No... how could he do that and not own up to it?
Gritting her teeth, Lou Xinyu was unwilling to give up, thinking perhaps Brother William liked her proactive approach from last night?
She then leaned closer, aiming to sit directly on Brother William’s lap.
Already feeling displeased, Xing Chen sensed her sudden approach and instantly stood up, moving aside.
Such obvious rejection was completely different from last night!
Lou Xinyu’s awkward attempt left her embarrassed.
"Brother William, are you afraid of others seeing? It’s okay, I won’t tell anyone." Lou Xinyu was still trying hard to win over Xing Chen, "I haven’t told anyone about last night..."
After all, last night... he was so passionate, how could he suddenly turn cold today?
He must be worried others would see and gossip, right?
It must be that...
Convincing herself incessantly, Lou Xinyu continued to believe that the passionate Brother William from last night was the real Brother William!
However, she didn’t realize her bold actions had actually angered Xing Chen.
His dark eyes suddenly became icy, he didn’t even want to glance at her, but hearing her mention last night...
His heart sank suddenly, could she have... spied?
"Lou Xinyu, are you so eager to know about matters between me and my wife?"
