My Sloppy Husband Is Actually a Handsome Bigshot!-Chapter 144 - 142: The Momentum of the Dark Horse 2

Only to see Li Yanan lowering his head, like a beast comforting a wounded companion, licking her wounds.

For a moment, Lin Zhenxin’s heart was pounding uncontrollably.

She didn’t know if it was because she had just been crying or because of his licking.

No trace of desire mixed in, it was only to soothe her collapsing emotions...

Li Yanan suddenly looked up, his beautiful peach blossom eyes staring directly at Lin Zhenxin.

The heartbeat, already chaotic and out of control, became even more frantic!

"Does it still hurt?" he asked, a faint dimple on his cheek.

Lin Zhenxin instinctively nodded, then shook her head.

Li Yanan wore nothing but a hotel bath towel around his waist, his perfectly toned body exposed at a lowered glance.

"Then stop crying, I’ll put some medicine on it for you."

His voice was deep and sexy, making her unable to refuse, even forgetting to cry.

How could Lin Zhenxin forget that as long as this man wanted to, with just a glance or a smile, he had the power to overturn worlds!

She nodded woodenly.

Lin Zhenxin even began to forget the fear and dread from earlier.

Li Yanan sprayed some medicinal powder on her wounds, and after ensuring there were no other bruises, he stood up.

"What exactly... is going on?" She was still in a daze, unsure of Li Miya’s intentions.

"The reason is complex, do you want to hear it?" Li Yanan capped the medicine bottle and said.

Lin Zhenxin nodded, gathering the thin blanket to cover herself.

"The Li Family wants a piece of land, but I have it now. I had Xun Chen give Li Yingying a room card, instructing Li Miya to meet at the hotel room tonight! She got the wrong idea and targeted you."

Li Yanan’s explanation was concise, but Lin Zhenxin’s heart was already in turmoil!

"What do you intend to do?" Standing abruptly, she asked.

Li Yanan didn’t speak; what he planned was already in motion.

Ten minutes earlier, Xun Chen likely had already ’accidentally’ sent the room number of the T.N.C president’s hotel room to certain media outlets.

Everyone was curious about who the T.N.C president, a constant trending topic, really was.

"What I intend to do goes against morals and ethics, so I don’t want to tell you."

Li Yanan said honestly, looking at her from above.

Lin Zhenxin tightened her grip on the blanket, looking back up at Li Yanan.

"Will it at least cause you any trouble?" Just like the situation with Shelley.

Li Yanan chuckled softly, quickly understanding her concerns.

He shook his head.

Finally, Lin Zhenxin’s heart temporarily settled, but she still had doubts.

"Why did Li Miya specifically choose me?" She truly couldn’t understand.

"First, because you’re my woman."

Lin Zhenxin’s face turned red upon hearing these words, clearly not accustomed to this title.

"Second, because He Bainian likes you."

Silence descended instantly.

Several times Lin Zhenxin opened her mouth, but no words came out.

Li Yanan had a smile on his lips, slowly leaning down, getting closer to her soft, pale lips.

Lin Zhenxin didn’t move, letting him approach her.

She could feel this man’s warm breath, the temperature misting on her face.

She could feel the focus in his eyes when he looked at her.

As their lips touched, Lin Zhenxin had only one feeling, and that was...

Heartflame!

When Li Yanan kissed her, he habitually closed his eyes.

His long eyelashes, thicker than a woman’s, displayed before her, making Lin Zhenxin a bit envious.

She could even hear the occasional sounds slipping from his throat.

She reached out her hand, gently letting it trace his face.

Sketching Li Yanan’s features with her fingers, but he pressed her closer into his embrace!

Lin Zhenxin dared not meet his criminally attractive peach blossom eyes, lowering her head instead.

"What should you say at this moment?"

Li Yanan knew well he was being quite unreasonable, especially when it came to He Bainian.

But naturally, emotions are different from business; they can’t adhere to reason at all!

"You..." Lin Zhenxin slowly raised her head to look at him.

Li Yanan was quite expectant of her next words.

"The towel fell..."

"..." Li Yanan looked down to find the towel had indeed fallen to the ground at some point...

"Just right!"

His sudden utterance of those two words left Lin Zhenxin stunned for a long moment.

Just right? Just right for what? What is just right?

Just as she was about to ask, the next moment Lin Zhenxin only felt herself being picked up by Li Yanan and thrown onto the bed...

"Saves the trouble of taking it off!"

Two o’clock in the morning, deep into the night.

However, suddenly the quiet was shattered by a piercing shouting!

Li Yanan opened his eyes, but Lin Zhenxin, sleeping sweetly in his arms, showed no reaction.

Gently removing his arm from under her neck, he got out of bed silently.

In the hallway, there was some arguing, with women crying and screaming accompanied by faint clicking sounds.

Li Yanan turned on the wall light.

The dim yellow light enveloped him in an indescribable eerie atmosphere.

He suddenly recalled a day after he was brought to the Li Family.

A little girl dressed like a princess walked up to him, an innocent smile on her lips, stretching out her hand...

Several strong men stepped forward from behind her, stripping him of all his clothes and throwing him into the winter snow like a dog.

The weather was bitterly cold.

Snow was heavy.

Merely because she disliked him, found him an eyesore, for no reason whatsoever.

Perhaps, within the Li Family, there was an evil gene deeply embedded.

Even in such a small child, there were hidden venomous fangs like a snake.

Sores festered and oozed on his hands, stomach, and legs, moving slightly felt like ripping his insides apart...

Li Yanan poured himself a drink, taking some ice cubes from the fridge.

The sound of ice hitting the glass...

Crisp, pleasing...

The Li Family...

I’m here!

Early the next morning, a shocking scandal exploded within J City’s media circles!

Last night, someone released information about the hotel name and room number where the T.N.C president was staying.

The source of the leak even took photos of the registration record, only censoring some private information.

What drew the most attention was the signature on the check-in record.

It was signed... Elliott!

In the international financial scene, there are two unshakeable Chinese tycoons.

One is He Bainian’s aunt, Susan He!

The other is the mysteriously enigmatic and never-seen Elliott!

Could it be that this mysterious tycoon is the president of T.N.C Group?

That night, every media outlet dispatched reporters to stake out near the hotel room, hoping to get firsthand information!

But as they staked out until deep into the night, an unexpected event broke the tension!

A middle-aged woman hurriedly approached, cursing under her breath!

She directly headed towards the room that was leaked by the source!

She even managed to get a room card from the front desk. frёewebηovel.cѳm

When she swiped the card and the door opened for a man holding a camera, that woman rocketed out like a bomb!

No one was prepared at all!

You could hear her hollering and cursing inside!

After a brief moment of stunned glances among each other, all the ambushing journalists emerged from their spots, desperate to seize the firsthand scoop!

Who knows!

The more explosive the news, the better!

But even for all they had seen, none of them expected...

They watched as that middle-aged woman yanked out a naked woman with cascading waves from inside!

Pulling her hair and calling her a temptress!

What exactly was going on?

Even more bewildering was how familiar this voluptuous, naked woman looked to them?

In a flash of realization, they suddenly discovered, wasn’t she the Li Family’s young lady, Li Miya?

This was too explosive!

How could Li Miya be coming out of the T.N.C president’s room?

Especially after the T.N.C Group had just seized valuable land from the Li Family that day?

The intricacies inside were too many to fathom!

Yet, what they least expected was still to come!

Soon, a man came out from inside, wearing nothing but a towel, and started a shout match with that middle-aged woman!

It was absolute chaos!

And amid that chaos, they gleaned another particularly useful piece of information!

It was Li Miya who had come forth willingly!

Before the reporters could internally cheer, their phones received simultaneous texts from their informants!

It turned out, from the start, the information was misdirected, and the room where the T.N.C president was supposed to stay had a room number ending in 8 instead of 3!

Due to a clerical error, such a misunderstanding occurred!

The room ending with 3 was actually occupied by a minor nouveau riche.

An uproar!

The journalists instantly envisioned a plot unfolding in their minds!

Trading a daughter for glory?

Seduction?

All of this, meanwhile, was completely unbeknownst to Lin Zhenxin, comfortably nestled in Li Yanan’s embrace.

She was sleeping soundly until the itch on her collarbone woke her.

Opening her sleepy eyes, she saw Li Yanan’s fingers gently caressing there, his gaze resting on her face.

The tender, captivated look in his eyes sent a tingle up Lin Zhenxin’s spine, spreading warmth to her heart.

Shyly, she pulled the thin blanket over her face, all too aware of her freshly awakened state...

Such a disaster!

And yet Li Yanan could still give her that kind of look; she seriously questioned his taste.

But when she thought about it, something seemed off.

Criticizing his taste was as if criticizing her own taste.

"What are you looking at!" Lin Zhenxin peeked out her eyes, wiping her mouth to make sure she hadn’t drooled, then relaxed.

"Looking at your beauty."

"..." Li Yanan’s single sentence left Lin Zhenxin utterly speechless.

She couldn’t believe that just woken up with a shiny face could be considered beautiful!

"Go away!" Under the blanket, Lin Zhenxin kicked lightly at Li Yanan’s calf.

Li Yanan expressionlessly lifted his leg to pin her ankle down.

"Does it still hurt?" Perhaps he had been too impulsive yesterday.

Couldn’t he avoid using that hoarse, magnetic voice to talk about such profound topics with her!
