My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 428: Chapter 0427 Making Things Difficult (First Update)_1
 

In the following days, Ye Xiong stayed at his aunt’s house every day, helping Xinyi with her dressings and cooking her meals.

Yang Xinyi’s neck wound wasn’t very serious and under Ye Xiong’s meticulous care, she recovered rather quickly.

During these days, Su Zhentian would come over almost every day. After Ye Xiong asked Yang Xinyi and learned that she didn’t wish to see him, he directly sent Su Zhentian away. After several attempts without getting to see Yang Xinyi, Su Zhentian stopped coming.

In the beginning, Yang Dingguo and his wife had a very bad opinion of Ye Xiong, but seeing how well he took care of Yang Xinyi and the fact that she didn’t express any desire to send Ye Xiong away, they came to accept him.

After Yang Xinyi’s condition stabilized, they also left, leaving only Ye Xiong alone at the aunt’s house to take care of Yang Xinyi.

Yang Xinyi’s injury was on her neck, which didn’t much affect her daily life as long as she didn’t recklessly twist her neck around.

The most troublesome time was during baths at night, it was incredibly inconvenient. Murong Ruyin had said that under no circumstances was it to get wet.

Ye Xiong volunteered to take on the major task of bathing her, to which Yang Xinyi responded with two words, “Forget it.”

During the time he stayed at his aunt’s house, Ye Xiong never dared to overstep again, sometimes feeling that Yang Yueru’s gaze toward him was strange. That look always inadvertently ignited his desire.

That night, after Ye Xiong finished changing Yang Xinyi’s dressings, he was ready to head back to his room to sleep. As he passed by Yang Yue’s room, he suddenly heard a strange sound coming from inside, a suppressed moan that made Ye Xiong wryly smile.

Attracted by the sound, he stood motionless at the door, not expecting that at that moment, the door would suddenly open.

Yang Yueru came out from inside, her face flushed. Seeing him standing at the door, she paused.

“Uhm, is your husband not back yet?” Ye Xiong awkwardly asked.

“It’s already eleven, I guess he’s probably not coming back, staying over at his office,” Yang Yueru said. Then, looking straight at him with a sizzling gaze, she asked, “What are you doing here?”

“I heard some strange sounds and thought something had happened,” Ye Xiong replied naively.

Yang Yueru halted, her face blooming with redness as she pointed towards the living room, “I’m going to get some water.”

Immediately after, she fled in disarray.

Due to her hasty departure, she didn’t close the door properly, and through the gap, Ye Xiong saw an object shaped like a stick standing on the bed inside!

Do not look at what’s not proper, do not think about what’s not proper.

Ye Xiong quickly ran back to his own room.

Back in his room, Ye Xiong tossed and turned, his mind filled with the scene he had just encountered at the door of Yang Yueru’s room, and he couldn’t help but wryly smile.

It seemed he still had some integrity left; otherwise, he really could have done anything.

…

In Capital City, at the Imperial Palace.

“Path of Righteousness” filming was in full swing.

As a Korean movie with an investment of over three hundred million, “Path of Righteousness” had garnered widespread attention in all respects from the beginning of its production.

The cast of the movie was incredibly huge; to conquer the Huaxia film market, the production company had brought on Huaxia’s most famous young actress, Zhang Liyan, to play a very important role in the drama.

The scene being shot was at the Imperial Palace.

Zhang Liyan came out from the set drenched in sweat, took a sip of water—her movements in the previous shots had been too demanding, and she had failed to nail it several times, prompting the director to call a break.

The director was notoriously harsh, his demands for filming almost reached the point of obsession, the movement that Zhang Liyan had just attempted was complicated, comprising four difficult sequences pieced together, with no room for error and he was adamant about not using cuts.

Among the action actors in Huaxia, Zhang Liyan was known for her agility, yet even she couldn’t complete it.

“That bastard, he’s clearly just giving you a hard time on purpose,” Zhang Liyan’s female agent cursed.
