After Bankruptcy, the Billionaire Asked Me to Marry Him!
Chapter 443: Little Fox or Little Rabbit

Chapter 443: Chapter 443: Little Fox or Little Rabbit

When he got up early, he said: Ah Li, focus on the competition! Leave everything else to me!

The night fell, and the longing hadn’t yet overflowed.

He appeared.

With a smile blossoming, Ye Li lifted her dress and rushed forward.

Just two steps away, she leapt into his arms.

Fu Yanci opened his arms to embrace her.

The faint fragrance of the girl’s perfume filled his nose and mouth, enveloping him, breathing it in.

It was only then that the anxious heart of Fu Yanci, uneasy for days, slowly settled.

Arriving in Mo Du on Monday afternoon.

It’s Saturday now.

Calculating it, it’s only been 5 days since they parted.

But he felt like it had been several months.

"Did you miss me?"

"...Yes."

"What does ’yes’ mean? Ah Li, speak up, did you miss me?"

"I did."

It seemed it only counted if he heard it directly from her. Hearing her say it again, the smile on Fu Yanci’s face deepened.

The familiar scent of sandalwood lingered at his nose as he looked at the high steps before him.

Every so often, someone would pass by in the square, look back, and then quicken their pace.

Ye Li snapped out of it, realizing what she had done.

Using her hands and feet, she dropped from Fu Yanci’s embrace to the ground, peeked around him, saw no one was there, blushed, and snuggled into his arms, "Why did you come?"

"I missed you..."

Fu Yanci bowed his head, gently kissed the top of hers, "Without you, I can’t sleep."

At first, he thought Lishan Mansion was too empty.

Later, back in the old house, he still couldn’t sleep, tossing and turning.

After two consecutive nights of insomnia, Fu Yanci decided he couldn’t go on like this.

Had the competition not started, Fu Yanci might have arrived in Mo Du by Wednesday.

He forced himself to hold out until the competition ended today.

Fortunately, it finally ended!

With the soft fragrance in his arms, Fu Yanci let out a deep sigh of relief.

The girl in his arms raised her head, her eyes and face filled with a touch of pride, "Fu Yanci, what would you do without me?"

"Yes, Ah Li is right!"

Fu Yanci nodded, reached out, and hugged Ye Li, "I really can’t do without you!"

For a moment, Ye Li was dazed.

The moonlight was so gentle.

Under the moonlight, Fu Yanci’s eyes looked even more gentle, entirely shedding the day’s severity.

And at this moment, the Fu Yanci who said "Ah Li is right" melted the firm resolve in Ye Li’s heart, turning it into cotton candy.

The photo of that short-haired girl, be it Li Li or someone else, it didn’t matter anymore.

To hell with it!

At this moment, Mrs. Fu was her, and so was the person in his eyes.

That was... enough!

"Fu Yanci..."

Raising her head, she pecked his lips, Ye Li’s voice was soft, "Do you want to know how much I missed you?"

Fu Yanci’s breath caught.

One side thought it was just a simple question, the girl was just asking.

The other side thought she was doing it on purpose, blatantly teasing him.

Facing her mischievous and shy eyes, and that fleeting cheekiness.

Fu Yanci thought, perhaps... it was the latter?

"Yes!"

As the word fell, the sound of footsteps faded away.

The car sped, stopping in the hotel’s underground parking lot in just over ten minutes.

Almost as soon as they got into the elevator, Ye Li’s heart began to race.

As bold as she was when teasing him.

She was as nervous at that moment.

Ye Li felt, she really wasn’t suited for the sexy, seductive vixen style.

"Fu Yanci..."

Clutching Fu Yanci’s arm tightly, Ye Li’s face was full of regret, "If I say I was wrong now, is it too late?"

The girl who just moments ago was full of challenge like a little fox, had in the blink of an eye become a small, harmless white rabbit.

As if the elevator door opened, she could dash out and find some hidden bush to hide.

Only leaving a little fluffy tail trembling outside the bush.

Heart itching slightly.

Breathing starts to get erratic.

Fu Yanci laughed, holding her hand, "Ah Li, it’s too late!"

No, it’s not too late!

She could still struggle a bit!

As the elevator doors dinged open, Ye Li let go of Fu Yanci’s hand and dashed into the room like a gust of wind.

Fu Yanci’s eyes were full of laughter.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling window was the pitch-dark night.

But looking at the time, it was only nine o’clock.

With a long night ahead, he’s in no hurry!

"Ah Li..."

Taking off his cufflinks carefully, and his watch to place on the vanity, Fu Yanci approached, leaning at the bathroom door and knocking, "Didn’t you notice, you forgot something?"

What?

Looking up, her makeup was flawless in the mirror, nothing seemed amiss.

Looking down, the makeup remover and skincare products were all lined up on the sink.

Just as she was about to say "No," Ye Li paused, her mouth half-open.

"Fu Yanci... hubby, could you pass me my pajamas?"

"Sure!"

The man agreed heartily, Ye Li exhaled a light breath.

Touching her slightly warm cheeks, once again she lamented that she couldn’t handle the vixen role.

The bathroom door was knocked upon; Ye Li opened a crack.

The man’s arm, sleeves rolled up, reached in, holding her Starlight Bunny pajamas.

"Thank you, hus..." band.

As Ye Li’s hand touched the pajamas, the bathroom door opened, the man squeezed in, enfolding her in his embrace.

"What are you hiding from? Hmm?"

The pajama fell to the floor, and Ye Li was shoved into the corner.

Above her came the smiling voice of the man, "Ah Li, shouldn’t we have a proper reckoning?"

???

"Re... reckoning what?"

Ye Li suddenly looked up.

Fu Yanci looked down, "On Monday, you deliberately avoided me! Tuesday, you didn’t take my calls or text back! Wednesday, you finally did..."

Ye Li hadn’t exhaled yet.

Fu Yanci had a dangerous smile, "Ah Li, can you count how many calls you made to me, how many messages you sent this week while you were away?"

Uh...

Ye Li couldn’t count.

Because, there were none.

She had been angry the first two days.

Busy with the competition the following days.

Even when free, if he called or messaged, and she replied, he’d follow up with a video call.

"This, you can’t blame me..."

Ye Li lowered her head, arguing, "You were too quick, I..."

"Okay, then tell me, why were you avoiding me?"

His palm was hot.

One hand held her neck.

The other arm wrapped tightly around her waist, pinning her firmly between him and the corner.

For a split second, Ye Li almost blurted out.

Who is the short-haired girl on your computer?

You’re already married; why secretly look at other girls’ photos?

And... Li Li!

Looking up, the man’s eyes were gentle, discussing settling accounts, yet showing no anger.

Thinking of the moonlight-lit stairs where he came for her.

Thinking when he said: Ah Li, I’ve come to take you home.

Ye Li couldn’t bring herself to ask.

If she asked.

Then what?

All the goodness would shatter like moonlight on water, unreachable once broken, wouldn’t it?

"Fu Yanci..."

Lifting her head to kiss him, Ye Li gently pecked at his lips, "You have little secrets I don’t know about, and so do I! Can I... keep my secret?"

"Then...when will you tell me?"

"...When you tell me yours one day, I’ll tell you mine, we’ll swap, okay?"

"Alright!"

"Fu Yanci, you... ah..."

Before coming, she thought, upon meeting, they must settle the account no matter what.

But Fu Yanci found that he just couldn’t.

Whenever his Ah Li gently came to kiss him like this.

He didn’t want to say or ask anything anymore.

Before him were her eyes, misty with affection.

In his ears, her voice repeatedly calling his name.

His breathing was so erratic it couldn’t be compared, Fu Yanci’s mind had only two words.

Forget it!

Important things first!
