CHAPTER 274

"So, how do you like our bedroom?"

"Our... Bedroom?" Ning Xiaozhi asked.

"Hmm. You are welcome to this house any day and anytime. You are my partner, remember," Ye Chaoxiang said.

He hugged her from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder. Ning Xiaozhi's eyes watered. She abruptly turned around and hugged him.

"Sigh. You have been such a crybaby of late. Calm down," he said.

"I can't help it. You are so nice and cheesy and warm and- mm."

He silenced her with a fervent kiss pouring out all his emotions in the kiss. Ning Xiaozhi matched his pace with a passion of her one. Accepting what he gave and giving in return.

Soon enough, after they were almost out of breath, they ended the kiss. While catching their breath, their foreheads remained locked.

"I love you," Ye Chaoxiang whispered.

"I love you too."

"Alright. Go and take a bath," he said.

"Okay."

As soon as the door to the bathroom shut close, Ye Chaoxiang's phone rang. Bringing the phone out of his pocket, he smiled when he saw the caller.

"Hi, my little princess," he said as soon as he swiped the receive button. He went into his walk-in closet a picked a grey coloured shorts and a red round neck shirt before he went back into the bedroom.

"Don't call me your little princess," Ye Lee Ai's small angry voice rang out from the phone.

"Hey! What did daddy do now? Please don't be mad at me," he said.

p "Why should I not? You forgot about me and were not picking up your calls since the day before yesterday," she whined.

"Sigh. Will you forgive me? I am sorry I missed your call. Something very very bad and urgent happened. My attention was needed."

"Fine. I forgive you. But only because you said it was urgent and bad and I know you played hero, right?" The last part came out in excitement.

"Of course, I played hero. Your uncle Chen played hero too. But the real hero was your handsome prince, Li Fengjin," Ye Chaoxiang did.

By this time, he was already in the living room and he took a sit on one of the couches.

"Wah! Who did you save? Let me guess... A goddess?" Ye Lee Ai said.

"You got that right. A very pretty goddess. Li Fengjin saved her from some bad guys and the rest is history," he said.

"So cool. I am so proud of all of you."

"We are too. So, how was my baby's day?" Ye Chaoxiang took the opportunity to ask.

"It was fine. I got ten stars in today's activities," she answered.

"Oh! That is so good. What are the activities you did?"

"Well, we recited poems and drew and painted. Teacher Mei and everyone said my painting was the best. We also..."

The little chatterbox listed all the activities performed in her school. She also talked about the things she did after school. Ye Chaoxiang listened attentively and even commented in between her story.

"So, that is how my day went. How about you, daddy? What did you do?" Sgebaaked in return?

"I was at the hospital. I just came back a few minutes ago," he replied.

"Oh! Alright, then I will hang up now so that you can have a good night's rest. Make sure to eat and drink enough water before going to bed, okay?" She lectures him.

"Okay, cupcake."

"Good night, daddy."

"Hey! No kisses for me?" Ye Chaoxiang sulked.

"Of course, there are kisses for you. Muah, muah, muah. I love you, daddy. Sleep well," Ye Lee Ai kissed him good night.

"Kisses to you. I love you too. Good night and sweet dreams, my princess," Ye Chaoxiang said before ending the call.

"So... Would you mind telling me who you were speaking with on the phone?" Ning Xiaozhi spoke from behind him.

Ye Chaoxiang turned to look at her. He was met with an alluring sight making him go speechless and wide-eyed. But Ning Xiaozhi mistook his expression.

She thought he was like that be sure she had caught him speaking to a woman over the phone.

Ning Xiaozhi happened to overhear the last part of his phone call. She was shocked at what she heard. Was he cheating on her?

She found it hard to believe. So, instead of going crazy and storming out of the house, she decided to confront him.

"Stop staring at me like that. I just asked you a question. Who were you speaking with?" Her voice has raised a note higher than normal snapping Ye Chaoxiang back to reality.

"Huh? I was talking to... Well-" he was stuttering.

"Ye Chaoxiang, have you been lying to me?" Ning Xiaozhi asked.

"What? Why would I do that? I am not-"

"Don't lie to me. I just overheard you talking to someone on the phone. You were telling another woman that you love her when you have a girlfriend?" She had begun to get angry and scared at the same time.

"No. Darling, listen to me. It is not what you think," Ye Chaoxiang quickly said as he walked toward her, wanting to hold her.

"Don't touch me. Don't," she stepped back. Her eyes were already red and watery. "What do you know I am thinking of? If you are not guilty, you would not be saying those things to me. You would not stutter when I ask you a question and you would not hesitate to tell me it's him you were being so lovey-dovey with on the phone," she yelled.

"Listen. It is not what you think. Let me explain myself, at least," he said.

Ye Chaoxiang was disoriented. Seeing her like that made his brain unable to function properly. He could not produce a good solution to the problem.

"No. Why did you lie to me? Why?" Her voice broke.

"Please. Just... Just listen to me. There is no other woman. I was talking to my daughter."
