My White and Rich Beautiful CEO Wife

Thump, thump!

The moment the phone connected, Qin Yu could hear his heart pounding violently.

He was sure that the woman he deeply loved was Yan Mingyu. Yet, by some cruel twist of fate, he had become intimate with Miao Xian'er first. Given she was the esteemed daughter of the Gu King of Miaojiang, if he failed to take responsibility, the Gu King would definitely come to East Sea with his people and chop him into pieces.

On the other hand, his relationship with Yan Mingyu was warming up, and they had even kissed tonight. If he abandoned her to marry Miao Xian'er, this superior woman would surely be heartbroken.

Damn it, this accursed fate really mocks people!

Qin Yu held the phone, his heart weighed down with gloom.

"Beep, beep...."

"Eh? Qin Yu?"

After a full ten rings or more, a surprised voice came through the phone, and it wasn't Miao Xian'er, but Ghost Granny.

Because in her mind, Qin Yu and the puppet had fallen from such a height, they should have perished together.

"Ghost Granny, it's me. Where's Xian'er?"

Qin Yu felt very anxious and also a bit puzzled. Why had Miao Xian'er's phone been switched off for so long, and now that it was on, why was it with Ghost Granny?@@novelbin@@

"Qin Yu, is it really you? I can't believe you're still alive. If the young miss knew, she would be so happy!"

Ghost Granny's attitude towards Qin Yu had undergone a significant change. First, because he was Miao Xian'er's man and thus the Gu King's prospective son-in-law, and second, because he had risked his life to save her at Tiger Leaping Gorge.

"Xian'er... she didn't... "

Qin Yu picked up on something in Ghost Granny's words, sensing clearly that something had happened to Miao Xian'er. Her head had hit the rocks that day; the injury must have been fatal.

For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a bit distressed.

Even though he didn't like Miao Xian'er, she was still a woman he had been intimate with.

"Ah, ever since the young miss was injured that day, she has been in a coma. The doctors think it's highly likely that she'll become a vegetative patient!"

Ghost Granny sighed deeply, her voice heavy with sorrow.

"What?"

Qin Yu exclaimed in shock, Miao Xian'er hadn't woken up since falling into that coma?

"When will you be free to come to Miaojiang? Maybe if you're there to take care of her, the young miss might wake up!"

Ghost Granny clearly hoped that Qin Yu would personally look after Miao Xian'er.

"This..." Find adventures on My Virtual Library Empire

Qin Yu hesitated for a moment before replying with a wry smile, "Ha, I've got a lot of troubles lately, and I'm not even sure if I can survive them!"

"What kind of trouble are you in? I can tell the Gu King, you are the young miss's man, our son-in-law. He can take up your cause!"

Ghost Granny asked urgently.

"No need, I can handle it myself. Alright, Ghost Granny, once I've sorted out all my troubles, I'll make a trip to Miaojiang!"

Qin Yu declined Ghost Granny's offer.

If he really were to rely on the Gu King's power to resolve this crisis, he feared that, regardless of whether Miao Xian'er woke up, he wouldn't be able to shake off the title of "Miaojiang's son-in-law."

Better to maintain some distance.

Of course, Miao Xian'er lying in a coma meant he had certain responsibilities as a man which he needed to uphold. He would visit her in Miaojiang after a while.

"Then... alright. If the young miss wakes up, I'll tell you immediately!"

"Mm!"

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yu was extremely conflicted.

If Miao Xian'er never woke up, then he wouldn't need to marry her, but that would be too cruel to her, and it wasn't the outcome he wanted to see.

But if she did wake up, she would most likely come looking for him.

Could it be that his relationship with Yan Mingyu would forever be stuck as just employer and bodyguard?

That undoubtedly would be another form of harm to Yan Mingyu!

"Creak... Qin Yu!"

Just as Qin Yu had a worried look on his face, the bathroom door cracked open slightly, and Yan Mingyu's somewhat shy voice came through, "Have you bought the underwear? Hand it to me!"

Although there were bathrobes provided by the hotel in the bathroom, after all, it was an awkward situation with a man and a woman alone, and she definitely felt too embarrassed to just come out in a bathrobe, all bare underneath.

"Ah... yes, it's ready!"

Qin Yu snapped back to reality.

"Unwrap the package!"

Yan Mingyu reminded him, as men tend to be careless, and certainly wouldn't have paid attention to such detail.

"Okay!"

Qin Yu took out a set of brand-new underwear from the bag and unwrapped it. The silky touch was indeed nice.

He knew Yan Mingyu wouldn't wear cheap stuff; such a small piece of fabric had cost him over three thousand.

However, the style was quite conservative. Although the store had many colorful and seemingly sexy undergarments on display, and the clerk even recommended thongs, Qin Yu didn't choose any of those.

Otherwise, if Yan Mingyu mistook his intentions, thinking he liked her wearing such sexy lingerie, that would be troublesome.

"Ms. Yan..."

Qin Yu walked to the bathroom door and passed the underwear through the crack in the door.

Heaven and earth bear witness, he was absolutely not lascivious, but his gaze still involuntarily stole a glance through the crack, where it was all hazy with steam.

Yan Mingyu's snow-white delicate body was faintly discernible, with one hand covering her chest and the other taking the underwear from Qin Yu's hand.

Although the view through the mist was not very clear, the obscurity only left more space for the imagination.

"Hey, I'm going to close the door now..."

Seeing Qin Yu still standing dumbly at the door, Yan Mingyu couldn't help but feel a mix of annoyance and embarrassment.

"Oh, right..."

Qin Yu scratched his head and sheepishly returned to sit down on the sofa, propping his hands behind his head and staring blankly at the ceiling.

The matter with Miao Xian'er could be put aside for now, but there was still one important thing at hand.

An Upper Ninja from the Black Dragon Society was about to arrive in East Sea, a being on par with a Half-Step Pill Holding expert!

Back in Tiger Leaping Gorge, the puppet controlled by the Xiangxi Corpse-Driving Clan was also a Half-Step Pill Holding expert. But since it wasn't alive and lacked combat awareness, it managed to give him a hard time, struggling between life and death.

Not to mention, this time it was a living breathing Half-Step Pill Holding expert.

What should he do?

On the way back, he had mentioned this issue over the phone to Lu Wenrou, but she also acknowledged that such high-level experts were very difficult to deal with. She needed to contact the Martial Alliance to ask them to send assistance.

However, members of the Martial Alliance were full of pride and reclusiveness, and it was uncertain whether they would agree to help.

"Squeak..."

As Qin Yu was wrestling with these thoughts, Yan Mingyu finally put on the robe and walked out, shuffling in slippers.

Her hair was wet, and whether due to shyness or just from the shower, her beautiful face was slightly flushed, giving her an alluring and tempting appearance.

"You should take a shower too. I'll help you treat your wound later," Yan Mingyu said after a glance at Qin Yu.

Struggling with a Middle Ninja had left his bandages soaked with blood, looking very bad.

"Uh... okay," Qin Yu nodded.

He took a pair of boxers and walked into the bathroom. As soon as he opened the door, a unique fragrance, a mixture of bath gel and a woman's body scent, rushed into his nostrils.

It made his body warm and he couldn't help but feel restlessly distracted.

Stripping off his suit and untangling the bandages, he stood under the shower to bathe.

Before long, as he came out wearing a bathrobe, Yan Mingyu had already dried her hair and pinned it up simply with a hairpin at the back of her head, revealing a neck as slender and white as a little swan.

"Take off your clothes!"

Yan Mingyu glanced at Qin Yu and said naturally.
