My Wife is My Life!

Lu Lixing looked at the dressing table that was littered with skincare products and frowned. He barely managed to pick out a bottle of body lotion from the pile of large and small bottles.

In the bathroom, Ji Qingqing didn’t hear any movements in the room for a while. She thought that Wen Rou had left, so she loosely wrapped a bath towel around her body and opened the bathroom door. She walked out of the bathroom barefoot.

Lu Lixing had just stood up after finding the body lotion for her. The two of them met face-to-face in front of the bed.

Ji Qingqing believed that she was seeing things, otherwise, why would she see Lu Lixing standing in front of her at this place and time?

She raised her hand and rubbed her eyes firmly. When she opened her eyes again, Lu Lixing was already standing in front of her as he looked down at her. His gaze followed the droplet of water that fell from her onto her smooth bare neck, and then onto her pale chest. His gaze lingered around the droplet until it fell into the bath towel wrapped around her chest.

The atmosphere was strange, and they remained quiet for a few seconds.

When Ji Qingqing finally realized that she was not hallucinating, her face paled immediately, looking as if she had seen a ghost. Ji Qingqing clutched tightly onto the towel that was wrapped around her body, turned around, rushed back into the bathroom, and slammed the door shut.

Lu Lixing?

Was that really Lu Lixing standing in her room? Was she hallucinating or not?

Ji Qingqing’s heart pounded rapidly against her chest.

She had an incredulous expression on her face as she looked through the frosted glass of the bathroom door. She barely managed to make out Lu Lixing’s figure.

Yes, she was now certain that Lu Lixing was standing in the middle of her hotel room.

Why did he come here?

What was he doing here at this time?

Why didn’t he call her in advance if he was going to come here?

But the answers to those questions were not important. What was she wearing when she appeared in front of Lu Lixing?!

She lowered her head and glanced at the towel that was loosely wrapped around her body. A lot of her skin was exposed since the towel was not properly wrapped around her body. She hurriedly took off the bath towel and changed into pajamas. She dressed carefully. After she finished dressing, she checked herself out in the mirror, making sure that nothing was out of place before she left the bathroom.

Lu Lixing was sitting on the sofa. His eyes were closed as he rested.

Ji Qingqing frowned slightly and asked, “It’s so late at night already, you…why are you here?”

Lu Lixing was concise and comprehensive when he said, “I’m on vacation.”

On vacation? Why would he be on vacation here in the middle of the night?

Did he plan on vacationing in the country because he liked China’s scenery the most? Why wasn’t he staying in a five-star hotel? Why did he vacation in such a remote area like here?

Ji Qingqing was not naive enough to believe the nonsense sprouting out of his mouth.

“You’re here on vacation? Why would you vacation in such a remote area?”

Lu Lixing was usually calm and collected, but he couldn’t help but cough when he saw how suspiciously Ji Qingqing was staring at him. He didn’t answer her questions; he asked her a question in return, “You don’t seem happy to see me here?”

Ji Qingqing smiled insincerely, “You didn’t tell me that you would show up in my room in the middle of the night. I was almost scared to death by you! How can I be happy?”

Lu Lixing fell silent for a moment. He sounded apologetic as he said, “Sorry. I forgot to tell you because everything happened so suddenly.”

He was indeed in a rush and acted too rashly.

Ji Qingqing was helpless against him. Since he was already here, there was nothing else she could do.

“Forget it. It’s already very late, so you must be tired too. Go and rest.”

Ji Qingqing didn’t know that Lu Lixing didn’t check out a room in the hotel. Her hotel room was very small; it was at least three times smaller than her room at home. She could easily bump into someone else just by turning around. How could the high and mighty Lu Lixing sleep in such a room?
