Chapter 177: 177, Pure, proud, and aloof, with a heart as cold and emotionless
Shi Yuhuan seemed to be genuinely asleep, breathing evenly.
Suddenly, Song Qinghuan gathered more courage.
She nuzzled against him once, saw his lack of reaction, nuzzled against him again. In an instant, she thought this was fun and felt so happy, she lifted one leg and casually placed it on top of his leg.
Shi Yuhuan still didn’t respond.
Then, she lifted a hand, gently placing it around his waist, then she laid her face against his chest, listening to his powerful heartbeat close to her ear.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve…
Hm, his heartbeat is strange. Why isn’t it steady? Why does it sometimes skip beats? The beats were fast, or maybe she missed a beat.
Or perhaps she was the one who missed a beat…
Song Qinghuan continued to count Shi Yuhuan’s heartbeat until she somehow fell asleep.
The only thing she remembered was how safe she felt in his arms, a feeling she hadn’t had for a long time.
With a beautiful woman in his arms and the sound of steady breathing in his ears, the man, who had been sound asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.
His gaze was devoid of any signs of sleep.
He looked at her unflattering sleeping posture, a hint of a smile curving his lips. He brushed away a lock of hair that fell upon her face, the smooth and fragrant feeling lingered on his finger, which felt exceptionally wonderful.
This woman, who would bare her teeth and claws at him when she was awake, was only soft and obedient when asleep, like a little kitten.
His phone suddenly vibrated. Shi Yuhuan took an indifferent glance, then reached out to pick it up. After seeing the number on the screen, he promptly switched off the phone.
But then it seemed as if something occurred to him. He turned on the phone again, dialed a number, and ordered casually, “Buy me a phone.”
Chen Tian, who was startled from his sleep, immediately replied respectfully, “Sure, Mr. Shi. May I ask what model you would like?”
Shi Yuhuan responded indifferently, “A woman’s phone.”
The answer really made Chen Tian want to tear his hair out, it was like he didn’t answer at all.
But as someone who was always by Shi Yuhuan’s side, he remained composed and asked with a chuckle, “How about the same model as yours? Is that okay?” 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝘣.𝘤𝘰𝑚
After glancing at the still sleeping Song Qinghuan, Shi Yuhuan hesitated for a moment before saying, “Alright.”
Just as the call ended, there came a knock at the door. Shi Yuhuan didn’t want to bother, yet seeing Song Qinghuan frown uncomfortably in her sleep, he reluctantly got up to open the door.
Standing outside was a cold and angry Si Chen. He asked, “Are you serious?”
Shi Yuhuan’s gaze was indifferent, as if there was nothing outside the door, only air.
Si Chen spoke up again, his voice quivering with suppressed sobs, “I asked, are you really serious?!”
Shi Yuhuan looked at him, his eyes as cold as ice, full of extreme indifference and killing intent.
Si Chen could clearly feel the air around him freeze instantly, the coldness seeping into his body with every breath, stabbing into his bones as if it would freeze his blood.
Suddenly, Shi Yuhuan closed the door, completely blocking everything outside, but it didn’t take away the icy cold. Si Chen felt his heart freeze to the extreme, his body involuntarily trembling slightly.
Si Chen didn’t knock on the door again, instead, he took a step backward, leaving the villa!
It was unknown when it started to drizzle outside.
Si Chen hated rain, especially the rain in Shi Country Villa.
Because it was on a rainy day at Shi Country Villa when he first met Shi Yuhuan, the only man in the world who could make him bow.
And also on a rainy day, at Shi Country Villa, he learned that the man named Shi Yuhuan was not only aloof and arrogant but also heartless and merciless.

Lastly, want to recommend a good cross-dressing novel written by my buddy, Cat Xiao Shao, “Contrary to the World: The First Demon Subduer”.)
