Chapter 275: Tit for Tat
Shangguan Biyue was desperate, no longer caring about the image of the Iceberg President. As long as she could escape from Xiao Tianyu's clutches, using any shameless tactics was fine by her.
Now, Shangguan Biyue had only one thought in her mind, stay away from handsome guys, cherish life.
Though Xiao Tianyu was handsome, he was too intense in some aspects, going on for hours without a break. At this rate, would she even survive? To be honest, she really couldn't take it anymore.
While Xiao Tianyu was hesitating, suddenly, Shangguan Biyue flipped over, causing Xiao Tianyu to stumble. She pinned him under her, and not daring to linger, she grabbed a piece of sleepwear and dashed out of the room.
Watching Shangguan Biyue's hasty and sexy back as she left, Xiao Tianyu lay in bed, a chill smile curling at the corners of his lips. Daring to make him Xiao Tianyu drink a spiked drink, how could he let this woman off so easily?
Bang bang bang~
The sound of knocking continued. Shangguan Biyue, wearing a nightgown and slippers, walked downstairs with a face flushed and radiant, looking too charming, clearly well-pampered by Xiao Tianyu, but she walked as if she were drunk.
Pa~
The door opened, and Shangguan Biyue glanced outside and was suddenly stunned. It was indeed this woman.
Yes, it was none other than Ye Qingcheng who was knocking.
Living in Central Manor, the two households weren't far apart, but there had never been any interaction. This time Ye Qingcheng's late-night visit had a purpose that Shangguan Biyue could guess easily, as long as she wasn't dumb.
After all, during the morning run, Shangguan Biyue heard Xiao Tianyu say he was staying at Ye Qingcheng's place.
Could it be she came to catch him? That seemed off too; didn't he say there was nothing between him and Ye Qingcheng? He was just temporarily staying at her house. Now that Ye Qingcheng was at her door, what did that mean?
Even so, Shangguan Biyue still spoke with a smile: "What wind blows Ye President here in the middle of the night? I'm really surprised!"
Though she spoke with a smile, her words were barbed.
"I'm here, looking for someone!" Ye Qingcheng said coolly, her beautiful eyes scanning the living room.
Shangguan Biyue continued to smile: "Looking for a man, or a woman? You wouldn't be looking for me, would you? That would make me feel quite flattered!"
Shangguan Biyue's words were truly infuriating, making Ye Qingcheng's expression turn unpleasant. If it weren't for Xiao Tianyu, she wouldn't have come visiting Shangguan Biyue at ten o'clock at night even if her life depended on it.
"Stop pretending!" Ye Qingcheng snorted coldly, "Let him come out!"
"Who?"
"Xiao Tianyu!"
"Sorry, he's really not here!" Shangguan Biyue replied.
But before Shangguan Biyue's words finished, the sound of footsteps descending the stairs echoed. Shangguan Biyue's expression darkened; she had just said he wasn't here, but Xiao Tianyu brazenly came down from the bedroom, making her past statement ridiculously false.
This bastard, would it kill him to come down a little later?
Especially when Xiao Tianyu was also wearing a nightgown, one that matched Shangguan Biyue's sleepwear, a couple's set, exposing half his chest, as sexy as one could be.
If Xiao Tianyu walked down the street in that sort of nightgown, who knows how many innocent young girls would have wild fantasies.
But Ye Qingcheng was different; a chilling coldness enveloped her. Coming home late at night, was he messing around with this woman? Especially seeing Xiao Tianyu and Shangguan Biyue in matching couple sleepwear, she felt even worse.
Judging by their attire, what more did you need to think? Surely they had been making love.
Ye Qingcheng finally understood; no wonder she'd been knocking for so long without anyone answering. They had been engaged in indecent activities in the room.
"Get out of the way!" Ye Qingcheng pushed past Shangguan Biyue, barging into the villa, and directly confronted Xiao Tianyu, saying coldly: "Xiao Tianyu, what do you mean by this?"
Hearing this, Xiao Tianyu glanced at Ye Qingcheng with his dark eyes, ignoring her. After all, they were merely strangers to each other. Why did he, Xiao Tianyu, need to report his actions to her, Ye Qingcheng?
Then, Xiao Tianyu brushed past Ye Qingcheng and walked over to Shangguan Biyue, saying indifferently, "We're not finished yet, could you please get rid of the guest quickly? I'm a bit impatient, you promised until dawn!"
"..." Shangguan Biyue stared blankly at Xiao Tianyu. Did he really have to speak so bluntly in front of another woman? Where was his sense of decency? Was it gone?
But thinking of his shameless actions in bed, he had no decency to begin with, right?
Anyway, she wouldn't continue with Xiao Tianyu; she'd already had enough. She wouldn't put her life on the line to satisfy Xiao Tianyu; sacrificing one's life for a man's satisfaction, unless she was an idiot.
She absolutely couldn't let Ye Qingcheng leave; once Ye Qingcheng left, who knows what this guy would do to torment her, wouldn't it get worse?
No, she thought.
Absolutely not.
Shangguan Biyue was calculating in her mind. She was scared, truly scared. What man was this fierce? Going on without a break.
Unbeknownst to her, Ye Qingcheng was feeling green with envy. Her husband had the nerve to speak such brazen words in front of another woman, which was extremely infuriating. Even if there was no real relationship between them, bound only by a marriage contract, they were at least nominally husband and wife, right?
"Xiao Tianyu, do you... have no shame?" Finally, Ye Qingcheng's icy facade started to crack.
However, Xiao Tianyu's expression remained indifferent as he glanced at Ye Qingcheng: "This matter between Biyue and me, does it have anything to do with you whether there's shame involved?"
"..." Those words made Ye Qingcheng's chest heave with fury.
Tap tap tap~
Shangguan Biyue wobbled towards Ye Qingcheng, her legs still a bit weak. Seeing this, Ye Qingcheng's anger surged. Did she really need to put on an act in front of me?
In truth, Shangguan Biyue wasn't faking it. Having exercised for hours just now, being able to walk was already a blessing.
Shangguan Biyue thought inwardly that she absolutely couldn't let Ye Qingcheng leave like this, as leaving would ensure that guy would push her onto the sofa to continue.
So, Shangguan Biyue smiled gently: "Ye President, it's rare for you to visit, you can't just stand there foolishly. Come sit on the sofa, let's have a heart-to-heart talk!"
With that, Shangguan Biyue took Ye Qingcheng's hand, joking; a life-saving benefactor visiting, how could she be neglected?
"Don't touch me!" Ye Qingcheng snorted coldly, her beautiful eyes fixed on Xiao Tianyu: "What did you mean by what you said just now?"
"What do you mean, you don't understand?" Xiao Tianyu responded.
"You..." Ye Qingcheng trembled, while Xiao Tianyu wrapped an arm around Shangguan Biyue's waist, saying: "Could you please leave and not interfere with us?"
"How am I interfering with you?"
"In this kind of situation, do I really need to explain?" Xiao Tianyu said calmly.
"Come home with me!" Ye Qingcheng said coldly.
"Home?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Tianyu chuckled. When they registered their marriage, Xiao Tianyu did consider Ye Qingcheng's villa as his home.
But after Ye Qingcheng told him that theirs was just a contractual marriage, a relationship based on money, was it still a home?
