Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 437: Chapter 437: Misunderstanding

After explaining the situation, Xu Ke closed his eyes. He didn’t know what to say to such a big child, but luckily Yu Xia was not very talkative herself and did not feel awkward.

The taxi drove for almost two hours before reaching the mountaintop villa.

Although Xu Ke hadn’t returned for a long time, and the security guards had changed, his ownership information was still with them, so there wasn’t any situation where the security didn’t recognize him. They just glanced twice at Yu Xia behind Xu Ke, murmuring a few things to themselves.

Yu Xia’s family could only be described as middle-class, with around a million in savings. A family of four lived in a three-bedroom, one-hall house. Suddenly coming to such a place, Yu Xia didn’t know where to put her hands and feet; her whole body stiffened. When following Xu Ke inside the villa, she appeared rigid like a rusty robot, not knowing where to place her limbs.

"This is my home. Feel free to choose any room on the first floor for yourself. Don’t be nervous; there’s nothing special here compared to outside, except the place is a bit larger. Oh, and the room at the very end on the first floor belongs to Sister Zhou, aside from that one, you can pick any. Yaoyao and I get up around seven-thirty in the morning. Just have breakfast ready by then. We’re not home for lunch, and if we come back for dinner, we’ll notify you in advance. If not, there’s no need to make dinner for us; just eat by yourself. I’ll give you my mobile number later, save it. Is there anything else you need to know or understand?" Xu Ke asked.

"No, nothing," Yu Xia bit her lip and shook her head.

"Are you sure there’s nothing else? I’m a man, so there might be things I wouldn’t think of. If you don’t say, I won’t know. If you’re uncomfortable talking to me, you can also speak with my wife once she returns," Xu Ke said, noticing her timid and scared demeanor. He lost interest in continuing the conversation, gave a few more instructions, and went upstairs.

Lin Mengyao returned from work, the house was lit up. Her exhausted body almost felt like it crashed, standing outside the villa until the warmth had almost entirely been swept away by the wind. Only then did she open the

complex. The words Xu Ke said earlier felt like a thorn piercing her heart, the pain suffocating her. She once naively thought

she should blame Xu Ke, should hate him. But when she saw the lit-up house, her heart miraculously felt peaceful. At that moment, she knew she couldn’t let go of Xu

villa with a complicated heart, wanting to talk with Xu Ke, to tell him she still loved him. But appearing in the living room was a young girl in a pink apron, with timid, ink-black eyes. This discovery was like a bucket of cold water that immediately doused Lin Mengyao’s simmering heart.

No matter how much he likes you, I’m his legally married wife, his missus, not someone like you, a mistress or concubine, that can compare to," Lin Mengyao retorted coldly, solidifying her suspicion with Yu Xia’s way of greeting.
