The night deepened…
This was Chi Xiaoyu's first night back in Country M.
An unpleasant incident unfolded, which she had not anticipated. The first half was still manageable. But ever since Xue Mei's incident, the looks people gave Chi Xiaoyu seemed to carry more weight.
Although no one dared to openly treat her poorly,
she could feel that those people, especially the women of high society, were different towards her despite their outward courtesy.
Tired, she stood barefoot in front of the dressing mirror, the ceiling light in the bedroom illuminated her, and she still sparkled brilliantly.
With her hands reaching behind her, she tried to unzip her dress but couldn't quite manage it. A pair of large hands came over and considerately pulled down the zipper for her.
She turned her head to look at him, her hands resting on his neck.
"Baby, are you very tired?"
His fingers gently traced her lips.
She shook her head.
