Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 1010: Chapter 983: Reality and Ideals Are as Far Apart as the Author’s Weight

Yu Mingxi was always the leader among the kids, and with Yu Minglang, they were unbeatable in the compound; and even Hai Zhao was their follower.

Later, after joining the army, he went wherever the conditions were harsh, be it the thousands-of-meters-high plateau or the hostile borders, his stamina naturally trained to match even that of Hai Zhao, who’s been in the city all year long.

”I need to hit the gym,” Hai Zhao silently vowed.

”I can’t go home, if my parents see me like this, they’ll break my legs.” She casually tossed a small bra onto his head, making him look like a superhero.

Hai Zhao was amused, taking the thing off his head intending to toss it aside, but his hand naturally crumpled it up and shoved it into his pocket.

”You know fear? Why didn’t you think about that when you were out having fun?”

Had she really drunk too much? If she hadn’t, why couldn’t she even recognize him, but if she had, how could she remember she’d get in trouble at home? And he even took her intimate clothing, yet she just giggled silly. If she hadn’t drunk a lot, she’d definitely have jumped at him to fight.

”Forget it, come to my place. You know who I am, right? I’m Hai Zhao, the Hai Zhao you particularly dislike. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you.”

He explained as he carried her on his back.

Yu Mingxi let out an ”oh,” and rested her face against his back.

So obedient.

He thought warmly, yet with a bit of sadness.

Maybe it’s only when she’s drunk that she’s this obedient to him. Why must there be an end to this path? How wonderful it would be to walk on like this forever, she wouldn’t say those hurtful words, wouldn’t treat him like air.

As they left the bar, he carried her to his car. Just as he was about to open the door to put her down, Yu Mingxi lightly bit his ear from behind.

”No, you’re wrong. I don’t dislike Hai Zhao. I, I— Ugh!”

Great, she threw up on him too. You don’t hate? You’re vomiting... boo hoo hoo! Hai Zhao was miserable again.

Hai Zhao’s home was in the center of the city. When the first high-rise in Q City was built, he bought it. From his place, you could see far off. He once hoped to share the night view of the city’s shimmering lights with Yu Mingxi.

The wish was finally granted, although it didn’t quite match his expectations.

He put her on the couch, went to fill the bathtub, and when he came out, the recently dazed and drunk woman had already gotten up, standing by the floor-to-ceiling window in awe.

”You’ve got a great view here.”

”Do you like it?” If you like it, then just stay here forever.

The latter half was unspoken affection; no one can capture the wind, and she was like the wind.

”I like it,” she turned and gave him a slight smile.

Her bright, expressive eyes made his heart race, and he automatically interpreted it as her liking him.

”I’ve run the water, you can take a bath. I’ll call in for some clothes for you.”

She suddenly sprang forward, wrapping her arms around his neck, looking at him with innocent yet enchanting eyes, ”You wash me?”

”...!!!”

He was instantly excited.

If he wasn’t excited, he wouldn’t be a man. The goddess he liked for so long suddenly holding him in such a way.

”Hahaha! Silly! Don’t you think I have a sour smell on me? I got it on you, didn’t I?”

She laughed heartily, making Hai Zhao’s face flush red, this was her, always playing by her own rules, a bold and hearty woman.

After teasing him enough, Yu Mingxi hummed a little tune and went to take a shower.

After she went in, Hai Zhao helplessly lowered his head, talking to himself.

”What’s there to be happy about, she didn’t mean it that way... And even if she did, I can’t take advantage of someone.”

Something he’d thought about his whole life, he just couldn’t do it.

If he acted, the Yu Family would chop him into 109 pieces, but that’s not what Hai Zhao feared. What he truly feared was seeing her not forgive him when sober.

Even more so, he feared she’d treat him like a stranger, just like that day when Qian got married, she did that to him once, and half of his heart died.

”There’s no clothing store open at this hour... Right, isn’t Lili running a clothing store?” Hai Zhao rifled through his contacts, remembering a former store manager who had opened her own shop after leaving his.

”Lili, send a set of clothes to your brother from your store, I need everything – shoes included, don’t ask for whom. I’ll pay you three times the price, pick the best you have, as for size...”

Hai Zhao thought about Yu Mingxi’s height, although she’s slim, she’s tall, ”get 170 cm, the shoes are... wait a moment.”

He walked to the entrance to check her shoes, ”Size 38.5.”

The faint sound of water made the noise outside less discernible, Yu Mingxi soaked in the bathtub, vaguely hearing him talking.

Her head was still a bit dizzy, but the unfamiliar environment didn’t make her feel wary, as everything here felt so comfortable to her.

She particularly liked the color scheme of the bathroom, wait, wasn’t this her own bathroom?

Yu Mingxi suddenly remembered, the apartment issued by her agency, this was how she decorated it; she was home?

Hmm, it seemed a bit larger than hers.

This bathtub was also much bigger.

She reached out to measure, feeling there was enough room for another person.

When someone renovated, he modeled it all on her place, sneakily thinking that even if he couldn’t be with her, he’d at least have the same bathtub, the same bed.

”Turns out alcohol really can blur spatial perception. How did I get back home, why did my bathtub become bigger... Hmm, must be the booze.”

Yu Mingxi’s thoughts were a jumble, she couldn’t remember how she got back, but in her daze, she believed this was her home.

The warm water alleviated her weary body, she leaned back in the tub, dreamily soaking, and after a while, feeling she’d had enough, she dried herself and wobbled to find a bed to sleep.

”Huh, I didn’t bring any clothes in? And there’s no big bath towel in the bathroom? When did I become so sloppy...”

She looked around but found nothing, oh well, it’s just her home, going out like this should be fine... right?

”Ah, you’re out, I made some hangover tea, come drink a bit and then lie down for a while, wait for me— ah!”

Hai Zhao had just placed the tea on the table, turned around, and was stunned.

This, this, this...

Yu Mingxi was also stunned.

How did a man come out of her house?!

Hai Zhao felt like his body was filled with lead, heavy as a ton. Seeing this unexpected stunning scene, he couldn’t move an inch. Oh my, so white! So perky! So slender! So long!

Completely uncontrolled, his eyes travelled up and down her body, this sight that would need a mosaic even in dreams, suddenly appeared out of the blue!

The perfectly figured goddess walked towards him step by step, making Hai Zhao feel a bit delighted.

”Slap!”

With a crisp sound, Yu Mingxi decisively swung her hand!
