Gently bite the jasmine

Chapter 262 Extra 6

Lin Xi picked up the glass of wine in front of her and drank it all in one gulp. Duan Yiheng called.

Lin Xi snorted and didn't answer.

Duan Yiheng called three times in a row, but she didn't answer.

She simply didn't want to answer. Then Liang Yutong's phone rang.

She showed Lin Xi her phone and said, "It was your husband who called."

Lin Xi pursed her lips and said nothing.

Liang Yutong knew her well enough to put the call on speakerphone immediately.

"Is Lin Xi with you?"

Liang Yutong snorted coldly: "What do you think?"

Duan Yiheng quickly said, "Please take care of it for me. Don't misunderstand, I'll be there now. Give me an address."

Liang Yutong glanced at Lin Xi and gave her the address.

Half an hour passed, and Duan Yiheng still hadn't arrived.

Lin Xi was so angry that she got up and left. After all, she had been drinking. Liang Yutong was terrified and quickly followed her.

Lin Xi didn't drive; she rode in Liang Yutong's car.

Just as they reached the roadside, Duan Yiheng's Bentley pulled up.

Upon seeing Lin Xi in the distance, Duan Yiheng instructed the driver to find a place to park on the side of the road.

Liang Yutong also saw Duan Yiheng and quickly waved to indicate that Lin Xi was angry.

Duan Yiheng got out of the car and walked over, but before he could even reach Lin Xi, she shook him off without saying a word.

Duan Yiheng looked at Liang Yutong and said, "Miss Liang, I'll take her back. Thank you for your help today."

Liang Yutong gave him a "make it easy" look and drove away.

Duan Yiheng looked down at Lin Xi and whispered, "Shall we get in the car first?"

Lin Xi crossed the road in a huff and walked forward along the road.

Duan Yiheng caught up and explained, "I met with Zheng Jiayi and his wife today, as well as her younger sister's family. Her younger sister's husband's company is running into some trouble; their business is failing, and their cash flow has dried up. They're talking to me about an acquisition—"

"So they sent you a woman?" Lin Xi shot him a sharp look.

“Zheng Jiayi and her younger sister did leave later, and I didn’t expect them to bring a group of women over,” Duan Yiheng explained as he walked. “Because you called, I was busy checking my phone when suddenly a woman sat down next to me—”

"Did I sit on your lap? Or is it my fault for interrupting your good time?" Lin Xi continued to interrupt him, almost going crazy with anger.

"I left right away without sitting on her lap." Duan Yiheng tried to pull her away, but Lin Xi dodged him.

"Don't touch me, I stink."

Duan Yiheng was taken aback, lowered his head and sniffed, and indeed there was a scent of perfume.

He simply took off his suit jacket and threw it into a roadside trash can.

Seeing that Lin Xi was still angry, he said in a humble tone, "At least leave me one piece of clothing. I can't walk around naked in the street."

Lin Xi scoffed, "If I didn't make a call, who knows if I'd be naked?"

"Lin Xi," Duan Yiheng said, his tone becoming more forceful, "is this how you think of me?"

Lin Xi pouted, and tears immediately fell.

Duan Yiheng immediately panicked and went forward to hug her, but she threw him away again in a fit of pique.

Duan Yiheng grabbed her waist, pinning her against the roadside railing, and gently coaxed her repeatedly:

"Don't cry. I really didn't do anything to wrong you. In fact, I even got angry because the other person couldn't understand me. If you don't believe me, go ask around."

Lin Xi turned her head away without saying a word, her expression looking truly aggrieved and pitiful.

Duan Yiheng bent down to wipe away her tears: "Shall I take you to confront them face to face?"

“Who wants to confront me face to face?” Lin Xi choked up. “It’s because you were hiding something from me while you were looking at your phone. I thought you were hiding something from me. When I called you, I heard another woman’s voice, so naturally I got angry.”

"Okay, okay, I was wrong." Duan Yiheng took out his phone and handed it to her. "See whatever you want."

Lin Xi turned her head away and deliberately said, "Delete everything too."

Duan Yiheng was both amused and exasperated: "You heartless little thing."

Lin Xi was almost completely coaxed, but she couldn't bring herself to make up with him.

I was angry and crying just now, and I lost all face in public.

“We did talk about the acquisition today. There are plenty of people in business who use women to conduct business, and I can’t control others, but you’re the only one in my heart.” Duan Yiheng explained gently to her, “Don’t be angry anymore, okay? I’ll film you every time we go out.”

Lin Xi replied softly, "Who asked you to film a video? Aren't you afraid of what people will say about you?"

"What are you afraid of?" Duan Yiheng cupped her face and wiped away the last trace of tears. "It's so hot outside, let's get in the car."

Lin Xi nodded.

The driver followed them the whole time, and luckily it was the middle of the night and there weren't many other vehicles around.

Once in the car, Duan Yiheng asked her, "I've been hiding from you while you're using your phone for several days now, haven't I? Why didn't you say anything when you weren't feeling well?"

Lin Xi whispered, "Not everyone has privacy."

"Who said that?" Duan Yiheng pinched her fingertips. "You're really going all out. If you're not feeling well, just say so. What can I do about it?"

"You're making it sound like I'm being unreasonable."

"You're very reasonable, just a little too sensible." Duan Yiheng naturally took her hand and kissed it. "I don't need you to be too sensible. Just do what you like and dislike. I'll cover for you, so what are you afraid of?"

Lin Xi grabbed his hand, wanting to laugh but too embarrassed to.

After she and Duan Yiheng got together, they rarely had any arguments, which was quite a novel experience for her.

"From now on, don't keep anything to yourself. If it's your call, I'll answer it even if I'm in a meeting, understand?"

Lin Xi hummed in agreement: "I understand."

Duan Yiheng ruffled her hair: "Come here, give me a hug."

Lin Xi was still a little embarrassed when Duan Yiheng unbuckled her seatbelt, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her onto his lap.

With the front and back blocked, and no one outside could see inside, Lin Xi felt less embarrassed.

Her eyes were still a little red. Duan Yiheng gently scratched them with his fingertip and sighed, "She cried without making a sound just now, which really startled me."

Lin Xi poked his chest with her finger: "Next time you call me, I'll have to find a man to answer for me, then you'll understand."

Duan Yiheng called her "ancestor" and then leaned back to kiss her on the lips.

Back home, Lin Xi pushed Dr. Duan upstairs, urging him, "Hurry up and take a shower. Don't wear these clothes anymore."

Duan Yiheng dared not refute.

"You can't do business without women," Lin Xi remarked.

Even so, she couldn't control others.

Duan Yiheng turned around and pulled her along, saying, "Come and wash together, I'll coax you a bit more."

Lin Xi couldn't possibly miss his unspoken message? She blushed deeply with embarrassment.

One night of passion, and I couldn't even get out of bed the next day.

Lin Xi slept until noon when Sister Mei came upstairs and knocked on the door. Just as Lin Xi pushed Duan Yiheng away, the phone on the bedside table rang incessantly.

As soon as she answered the phone, Liang Yutong's laughter came through: "You two are something else, you've made it to the top of the entertainment news trending topics."

Lin Xi was suddenly startled awake: "What?"

Liang Yutong: "Go see for yourself. I really didn't realize you two were so lovey-dovey. Did Duan Yiheng win you over?"

Lin Xi was teased and silently hung up Liang Yutong's call.

When I went online, I found that all of her "affected" behavior with Duan Yiheng last night had been filmed, and it was even video footage.
