Chapter 583: 583, that day, I prepared a big gift for you
Shi Yuhuan gently embraced her from behind, whispering her name in a low, mesmerizing voice.
Unexpectedly, his lips found her earlobe, causing Song Qinghuan to gasp and shudder as if she had been electrified, her body now sensitively alert and mostly beyond her control.
“Shi Yuhuan…stop…I don’t want to…” She arched her body, turning to escape his grasp.
Shi Yuhuan’s eyes darkened, clearly noticing Song Qinghuan’s odd behavior.
Recently, ever since they returned from Q City, each time he attempted to get close to her, she seemed to resist, and then found an excuse or reason to dodge him.
Shi Yuhuan narrowed his dangerous eyes, murmuring in a husky voice, “What’s wrong with you?”
Song Qinghuan’s eyes flickered: “Nothing. I just haven’t been feeling well lately, I…”
Shi Yuhuan saw through her at a glance: “You’re keeping something from me.”
Song Qinghuan gently clung to his shoulder, burrowed her head into his neck with fatigue, and whispered, “Don’t get mad, I’m just tired. Let me rest for a couple of days. We can talk on Valentine’s Day, okay?”
She gently kissed Shi Yuhuan’s lips and seductively muttered, “I… have a big surprise for you on that day.”
Valentine’s day would be the day after tomorrow.
Perhaps it wasn’t right to push her too hard. If she wanted a couple days, he would give her that.
Shi Yuhuan raised an eyebrow, a provocative glint in his eyes, he said nothing and simply pulled her into his embrace.
Song Qinghuan heaved a sigh of relief and gently pushed Shi Yuhuan out of the kitchen.
When she finished washing the dishes and came out, she overheard Shi Yuhuan making a phone call from the sofa: “Where are you?”
After a pause, he continued: “Good, keep following them, I’ll be right there!”
After Shi Yuhuan hung up the phone, Song Qinghuan approached him: “Are you going out now?”
Shi Yuhuan looked at her as he stood up, his expression solemn: “Everything will end tonight, wait for me at home.”
Song Qinghuan nodded: “I’ll wait for you to come back.”
Shi Yuhuan kissed her forehead before turning to leave.
The night was dark and silent, and the crisp winds rustled the tree branches.
The new year had passed, and a sudden snowfall blanketed the ground, the reflected white light casting a stark and solitary atmosphere upon the world.
After this stormy night, the Shi Family underwent earth-shattering changes.
The morning news shocked the city when it reported the death of Shi Group President Shi Shouye, who had overdosed on drugs.
By noon, an even more sensational news story broke.
Times Group had suffered a disastrous investment; the billions they had spent on land turned out to be a green zone where construction was prohibited. Simultaneously involving bribery, the company went bankrupt overnight. All assets were to be liquidated and sold off cheaply. The person in charge, former president Shi Shouye’s son Shi Zhengguo, had fled the country…
All of this seemed like a tragedy of natural and man-made disasters, but Song Qinghuan had her suspicions; she believed this had all been orchestrated by Shi Yuhuan.
Shi Shouye still refused to hand over the “Four Fingers”.
So, Shi Yuhuan disavowed his agreement with old Master Shi, Shi Xiuren. He attacked Shi Shouye fiercely, in tribute to his deceased parents.
But, why had Shi Yuhuan suddenly changed his mind?
Somewhere deep within, Song Qinghuan found it hard to believe, yet everything seemed so naturally occurring.
Whether or not this was connected to Shi Yuhuan, all she needed to do was wait for his return to get answers.
As Song Qinghuan prepared a meal for Zishi in the kitchen, he was playing in the living room. Suddenly, a “crack” came from the kitchen window…
