Xie Wanwan looked at her as if she had seen a ghost. Youre not in the least concerned?

Cheng Xin is not the first person who mentioned this. Xiang Wan showed a calm smile. Besides, why should I mind? Although back in ancient times, such hatred and grudge might mean that a pair of lovers would never be together

Xiang Wan paused for a moment.

This is actually totally unfounded. But lets a.s.sume that this matter is true Miss Xie, how many years has the Qing Dynasty been gone? What has the younger generation got to do with the older generation?

Xie Wanwan pressed her lips tightly together.

In just a few sentences, she was unable to utter another word.

The Xiang Wan before her seemed to have become another person.

In Xie Wanwans heart, this Xiang Wan was completely different from the girl in Jin City who loved to wear white clothes. It was like they werent the same person at all.

Miss Xie, do you still have anything else to say? Xiang Wan smiled. If theres nothing else, then do rest early. Youre a busy person, creating billion-dollar deals every day from the moment you wake up. Thank you for your concern and dont worry about me.

Then she turned and walked away.

Xie Wanwan stayed at her spot.

Slowly, she pulled out another cigarette!

Click!

The flame from the lighter danced about.

There was no other sound.

That night seemed to be quieter than most.

When Xiang Wan returned to the bedroom, Bai Muchuan had finished taking a bath. His hair was still damp and he was working on his laptop, with a hand holding a cigarette and his posture looked as if he was really relaxing

This was the second time that Xiang Wan was forced to take in second-hand smoke and her eyebrows were closely knitted together.

What are you doing?

Bai Muchuan looked up, his gaze brus.h.i.+ng past her face. He hurriedly snuffed out the cigarette then fanned the air around him. After that, he showed a sneaky, secretive smile.

Im writing about my happiness.

I gotta hand in my homework or my wife is going to ignore me.

Alright, his att.i.tude was good as he was working on what he owed her.

Xiang Wan walked over for a glance. He really was writing the latest chapter for his novel, The White List.

Her mood improved after she saw that. I wont disturb, so continue to write. Ill go take a bath now.

And she went to the bathroom.

After she was done, she blew dry her hair. Then she sat on the bed and noticed that Bai Muchuan was turning off his laptop.

Xiang Wan suddenly perked up in joy. You updated already?

Bai Muchuan kept his laptop on the sofa. Of course!

Thats great! Xiang Wan couldnt wait to check out the latest chapter. She quickly picked up her phone

And was totally absorbed in reading it.

When Bai Muchuan walked over to her, she had no reaction at all.

When he pulled up the quilt and lie beside her, she also showed no reaction.

Bai Muchuans eyebrows were crumpled together. Earlier on when you came in, was there something that you wanted to tell me?

Oh, nothing! Xiang Wans eyes were glued to the mobile phone screen. She didnt even lift her head to look at him. Theres nothing more important than reading Second Young Master Mus novel.

Bai Muchuan felt as if his gums were a little ticklish. Little Xiang Wan, are you asking for a beating?

Xiang Wan was concentrating on reading and felt a hand land on her waist. She quickly caught it and flung it away. She also took the opportunity to give him a warning by showing him a peeved look. For goodness sake! Dont disturb me while Im reading This is an opportunity to interact with Second Young Master Mu that is so hard to come by!

Bai Muchuan:

He realized that he was green with jealousy.

Yet the ident.i.ty that he hated and was jealous of, was Second Young Master Mu.

Had I known, I wouldnt have written the chapter.

Dont! I cant help being this way. Ive been waiting for your update for so long, its only normal that Im so eager to read it Xiang Wan explained. As she didnt see any response from him, she reached out to get his hand which she flung earlier and placed it on her waist. Go ahead, just squeeze however you like

Bai Muchuan:

What was the use of squeezing her?

The heart of his beloved was not on him at all.

A while later, he peered over.

Dont tell me youre mesmerized by the male protagonist?

Mm! Maybe.

The way he solves the case is really awesome!

Bai Muchuan laid straight on the bed like a zombie and looked directly at the ceiling. Its just a special ability granted by the Author. How can you believe that?

So what if its granted? It makes me happy! Youre not allowed to criticize my idol.

Bai Muchuans feelings were complicated.

Ive never thought before that my greatest love rival would actually be myself

Isnt that great? Xiang Wan chimed in casually, If its another man and you found yourself unable to match up to him, wouldnt that be worse?

Three dark lines appeared at his forehead, like an emoji.

Sir Little Bais rage meter was almost full. Xiang Wan was still intrigued and immersed in reading the new chapter. She was completely oblivious to his emotions. When she finished reading the latest chapter, she also read the previous two chapters for some thinking. Tsk, tsk, tsk! exclaimed Xiang Wan, who couldnt get enough of it. I wish there were two updates every day!

Hurhur!

Bai Muchuan gave a sneer. Are you sure you could take it if there were two chapters every day?

Xiang Wans face immediately felt like it was burning when she thought of the condition of him updating a chapter.

Slowly, she put down her phone and looked at Bai Muchuan greedily like he was prey. She then seemed as if she had made a decision.

For the sake of reading your updates, Im willing to sacrifice my body! Come~Hero!

She lunged at him.

Bai Muchuan then followed along and embraced her where they made a turn on the bed.

Little thing! he teased, you dont care about having face anymore and decided to be shameless?

Whats the use of having that? Just take it! I want to read more chapters!

Are you trying to anger me to death?

Whats the use of angering you to death? Can I inherit the rights to your novels?

Xiang, Wan!

Bai Muchuan laughed again and didnt say anything else.

He held her up. As he felt the softness of her body, he seemed to have the mood and started to kiss and bite her.

Xiang Wan t.i.ttered and couldnt stop rolling about. Stop that! The next room, the next next room, the next next next room, might be able to hear

I dont care

Hey! Xiang Wan was panting and gasping for air. She finally managed to break free and held his shoulders with a calmer, serious expression. I almost forgot. Someone confessed to me earlier. Do you want to know who?

Bai Muchuans body instantly went stiff. Who is that?

Make a guess?

Tell me! When Bai Muchuan wore a grim expression, he was like a jealous husband.

He stared at Xiang Wan coldly, as if knives were coming out from his eyes. If I know who that is, Ill skin him alive!

Haha! Xiang Wan was very satisfied with his reaction. She tucked her hair behind her ears and replied in a lazy tone. Its a pity that its a woman. I dont think youll have the heart to skin her alive.

She gave an account of what they talked about in the living room earlier to Bai Muchuan.

She gave an indifferent smile when she saw Bai Muchuans face turning cold.

Frankly, Xie Wanwans a straightforward person. She didnt make an issue out of it but chose to tell me directly. Cheng Xin, on the other hand, I thought she was just similar to Bai Lu, a naive girl who doesnt know the ways of the world as their family protected them too well. Besides being wayward and spoilt, they are still basically kind at heart. I never expected that she would resort to such an underhanded method, as if sowing discord was not enough, she actually plotted to do harm through the hands of another!

Bai Muchuan furrowed his eyebrows. Shes the bad apple in Serious Crime Division One.
