“Come here.” He held her hand, pulled her up from the sofa, and took her to the huge french window.
Mu Xiaoxiao rested on the transparent glass and stared at the scenery outside. As they were close to the river bank, they had the best view of the river in the city. With splendid bright lights from both sides, it felt like they were overlooking the city.
“Look here.” Yin Shaojie pointed at the location below, and he leaned his side onto the glass. With a dark gaze, he watched her expression.
“Where?” Mu Xiaoxiao stared in a puzzled manner at the location where he had pointed.
There was nothing there, just a piece of glass, and through the glass, there was only the nightscape…
Before she could finish her thought, she saw a streak of silver light traveling straight into the pitch black sky. Then in the next second, there was a thump sound. A ball of fireworks exploded, and it looked just like a black cloth dyed with a splendid flower.
“Wow—It’s fireworks. it’s fireworks!” she exclaimed in surprise, excitedly tugging onto his sleeves.
Yin Shaojie’s tall figure leaned onto the glass. He cast a glance at the fireworks, and his slender lips turned into a smile.
Mu Xiaoxiao couldn’t care to speak with him as the fireworks flew off one after another and exploded. It was a sight that was hard to turn away from.
In a few minutes, over a hundred balls of fireworks had exploded, and gradually, the sound faded and the traces vanished.
Mu Xiaoxiao couldn’t have enough of it. Nevertheless, she calmed down. Then, she turned to look at him and asked, “Is this your gift for me?”
Yin Shaojie nodded his head and smiled charmingly. “Yeah, do you like it?”
Mu Xiaoxiao laughed happily, “I like it! Okay, I believe that your apology is sincere. I’ll forgive you.”
He extended his hand and hooked onto her shoulders, taking her away from the french window.
“So, can you come home with me now?”
Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoxiao slipped away from his arms and ran to the sofa to sit cross-legged. All smiles, she said to him, “I’m not going! I want to sleep here tonight. It’s already paid for. It’d be such a waste not to sleep here! What’s more, there’s still a sumptuous breakfast in the morning, and it’s free!”
Yin Shaojie looked at her and said humorously, “Do you know how much a night here costs? You’re only interested in the breakfast?”
Just the cost of the presidential suite was enough to cover her breakfast for a whole year.
Mu Xiaoxiao stuck out her tongue and cheekily covered her ears, and she interrupted him, “Don’t tell me! I don’t want to know!”
If she knew the actual cost, she would have regretted it extremely!
Though she wasn’t the one footing the bill, she didn’t like to squander money.
Initially, she was only acting willful to spite him, but it had led her to pick the most expensive room without even thinking about whether it was a waste or not. She only wanted to spend his money just to relieve her anger.
Yin Shaojie looked at her in disapproval, and he finally gave up and said, “Okay then, you can stay if you want. Anyway, it is the weekend tomorrow, and there’s no need to wake up early. Sleep here then!”
As he spoke, he walked towards the bathroom, taking off his clothes on the way.
Mu Xiaoxiao saw him take off his t-shirt. She was stupefied as she stared at his bare back. His well-defined muscles emitted the powerful presence of a man. She subconsciously swallowed some saliva, and her face slightly flushed with redness.
“Hey, hey!” What are you doing?” she asked promptly.
Yin Shaojie hooked his shirt over his shoulder, turned, and glanced at her with a devilish smile. He then said, “To shower. I’m not going back either. I’ll stay here for the night.”
