Chapter 159: Chapter 159: Improper Thoughts

Two people sneaked to the downstairs…

That’s not right. He Jingyao was completely composed, so the word “sneaked” could not really be used to describe him; “sneaky” suited her more accurately.

The kitchen was vast, and once Su Zixi entered, she indeed felt a bit clueless.

She turned her head, looking at He Jingyao for help.

The man leaned against the wall in his robe, his brow slightly furrowed, seriously surveying the various cabinets and the refrigerator for a long time before his thin lips parted slightly, “I don’t know either.”

Su Zixi was startled.

He curved the corners of his lips, “I don’t cook.”

Su Zixi instantly understood that he, the young master, also had no idea where the food was stored…

If that was the case, why did he pretend to be familiar with everything and insist on accompanying her downstairs?

Su Zixi had no choice but to rummage through cabinets… Fortunately, Uncle Li managed the house well; the fridge was always stocked with some snacks. Su Zixi took them out, heated them briefly in the microwave, and then joyfully carried them to the dining room to start eating.

He Jingyao sat beside her, his elbow propped on his chin, an indolent look on his face… Su Zixi inadvertently looked up and was momentarily transfixed.

Under the dim light, his features became even more defined, his usually dark eyes carried a lazy seductiveness from not fully waking up… He was sexier and more captivating than the snacks in front of her.

Gulp.

Su Zixi swallowed her saliva unconsciously, hurriedly burying her head to focus on the snacks!

“Is it good?” He Jingyao asked with a light chuckle.

Su Zixi nodded emphatically, turning all her cravings into appetite… Yes, she was just simply hungry.

It wasn’t because she harbored any inappropriate thoughts towards someone!

Su Zixi convinced herself mentally, quickly finishing the snacks. He Jingyao timely handed her a glass of water, which she eagerly took and drank several gulps from, barely avoiding choking.

A trace of amusement flickered in He Jingyao’s eyes; this woman ate as if someone was competing with her for food.

In the dead of night, two people sneaking into the kitchen to steal snacks… The illustrious Mr. He had never experienced something like this before. Truth to be told, she found it quite refreshing as well.

Before meeting Su Zixi, his life seemed to revolve around just one thing. From a young age, he had shown extraordinary talent and had been involved in the family business by his teens, taking over officially at twenty. He had faced various challenges; the innate competition among males once made his blood surge, but mostly…

Mostly what? He had never really stopped to think about the meaning of it all.

In the midst of accolades from others, he had gradually found it mundane.

If life was only about one thing, and particularly something that wasn’t very challenging for him, it was bound to be boring.

That changed when he met Su Zixi.

Perhaps from that day onward, he felt life had become much brighter.

The things he once despised and disregarded, when experienced firsthand, became more irresistible.

With that thought, He Jingyao suddenly reached out, tucking a stray strand of her hair behind her ear.

Su Zixi was slightly startled, raising her head to see the tenderness and affection in his eyes, her heart suddenly trembled.

In that moment, something transformative seemed to happen deep within her heart… leaving her flustered but also joyous.

“Jingyao…” she involuntarily uttered.

“Hmm?” He looked at her with a smile.

Su Zixi suddenly felt bashful, she put down her cup and coughed lightly, “I’m full, let’s go back and rest.”
