Chapter 42: Chapter 42 What to Do If You Don’t Want a Divorce

Looking at the message Su Ye sent, Xiao Jinsheng felt a bit puzzled.

She glanced at the time—it was almost 1 a.m. now.

186GoodBroWouldn’tLetMeTouchHisAbs: I’m outside your door.

Xiao Jinsheng: Bro, don’t mess around. You’re not trying to scare me like a ghost in the middle of the night, are you?

186GoodBroWouldn’tLetMeTouchHisAbs: If I wanted to scare you, I’d climb in through the window. Why would I bother texting you?

Curious about what Su Ye was up to being so sneaky late at night, Xiao Jinsheng put on her shoes and went to open the door.

The hallway lights weren’t on. With the light from her bedroom, Xiao Jinsheng could see Su Ye in a bathrobe, his belt loosely tied.

"What are you up to?" Xiao Jinsheng hurriedly averted her gaze from the hem of his robe that threatened to reveal more with his every move.

"Playing Buddha."

Su Ye chuckled lightly, grabbed her wrist, and slid her hand inside his robe. Leaning down to whisper in her ear, he said, "Just proving I’m not stingy."

"You, you—" Xiao Jinsheng’s heart raced, mixed with a flustered panic. In an impulsive move, she grabbed Su Ye’s belt and dragged him into the room.

Peeking outside the hallway, she confirmed that no one else had been disturbed by the commotion, then carefully closed the door.

"You’re scared of everything normally, and now you’re being cautious even at home?" Su Ye smirked, wrapping an arm around her waist and pulling her against him.

Pressed close together, her hand resting on his abs was now sandwiched between them through the fabric.

Heat surged through Xiao Jinsheng’s body, especially in the hand pressed against Su Ye’s firm stomach—it felt like clutching a furnace.

"And what about you, sneaking into my house in the middle of the night? What’s your excuse?" Xiao Jinsheng countered.

"If I got turned down, my pride would take a big hit." Su Ye’s golden eyes lowered slightly, his gaze drifting from Xiao Jinsheng’s fair and delicate face to her smooth shoulders and collarbone.

Xiao Jinsheng was wearing a spaghetti-strap sleep dress. Feeling his invasive gaze, she shivered slightly and hunched her shoulders.

"Cold?" Su Ye asked.

Xiao Jinsheng shook her head, though she could feel herself enveloped by his fresh post-shower scent and powerful hormonal aura.
