Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight-Chapter 1052: Jealousy

Chu Yin was kissed into a bit of a daze, but the sound from the kitchen pulled her back to reality.

She braced herself against Sang Li’s chest, reminding him, "There’s someone here, your housekeeper Xu is making sobering soup for you."

Chu Yin’s tone was a bit sour.

Sang Li looked at her lips without speaking, just helped her sit up.

Just then, Xu Huihui came out carrying the sobering soup.

"Mr. Sang, you’re awake? Are you alright? I’ve made sobering soup."

Sang Li looked at the sobering soup in front of him, nodding politely, "Thank you."

"You’re welcome."

Xu Huihui smiled and instinctively looked at Chu Yin.

Instantly, her gaze froze.

Chu Yin’s lipstick was smudged.

She too was a woman, immediately understanding what happened between Chu Yin and Sang Li while she was in the kitchen.

Xu Huihui twisted her fingers.

Sang Li looked at her, "Is there anything else, Housekeeper Xu?"

Xu Huihui immediately presented her professional demeanor, "I am the housekeeper of this building, I must check the owner’s condition."

Sang Li thought about it, altering his usual gentle demeanor, his expression somewhat business-like.

"Housekeeper Xu, I will report your diligence to the property management."

"Mr. Sang, I’m not—"

"It’s too late, I’m not used to having outsiders at home." Sang Li coldly issued an order to leave.

Xu Huihui’s face turned pale, nodding quickly as she left.

Upon hearing the door close, Chu Yin turned to look at Sang Li.

"Do you know her intentions?"

"I wasn’t aware before, until she sent flowers last time. This time, it was an opportunity to make things clear to her. Her colleagues are downstairs. If she spreads feelings towards the owner, she’d be dismissed the next day. It’s unnecessary."

Sang Li’s main reason for staying here was because of Chu Yin.

Since Chu Yin was already by his side, where he lived was the same to him.

So he didn’t want to make things difficult for others.

Chu Yin nodded, although she was a bit upset with Xu Huihui’s attitude just now, Xu Huihui didn’t do anything particularly excessive.

Directly making someone lose their job is not very good either.

If this time he privately clears things up, and she understands, she’d actually be a competent housekeeper.

After thinking, Chu Yin raised her eyes to find Sang Li staring at her.

"What, what are you looking at me for?"

"Ah Yin, you haven’t told me why you were angry just now?" Sang Li’s voice was low, with a kind of coaxing feeling.

Chu Yin felt her scalp tingle.

"You’re calling me Ah Yin for no good reason, if you’re not drunk, I’ll go back to my room now, I’m not talking to you."

Chu Yin childishly felt that escaping would solve everything.

Just as she got up, she was pulled back by Sang Li, accidentally sitting on his lap.

This posture, she couldn’t even have imagined before.

It was like a couple in the honeymoon phase being sweet together.

Chu Yin moved to get up, but was no match for Sang Li’s strength, being pressed back onto his lap.

"Ah Yin, you haven’t answered me."

"I... don’t you already know, do you still need to ask me?" Chu Yin pouted.

"I want to hear it from you," Sang Li stared at Chu Yin.

Chu Yin felt all over her body tingling.

"Jealousy," Chu Yin no longer concealed.

Sang Li said deeply, "Then why don’t you want me to take care of you?"

Chu Yin lowered her eyes and confessed, "You seem troubled lately, and it’s all my issues recently. I don’t want to bother you. If my liking you only causes trouble, then what’s the point? For you, for me?"

Sang Li looked at Chu Yin with deep eyes.

"No, you’re not trouble. I’ve been stressed because of company matters lately, but you’ve already been able to solve problems on your own. I don’t need to worry too much."

Chu Yin felt a sense of relief deep down.

"Really?"

"Ever since we met, when have I lied to you?" Sang Li retorted.

"True, you even frankly stated you didn’t like me," Chu Yin said, then looked at him, "No wait, you said you had some feelings for me, what kind of feelings were they?"

"..."

Sang Li suddenly coughed.

He released Chu Yin, calmly saying, "It’s late, let’s rest first."

"Wait, why do you change the subject when I ask you? Is it hard to answer?" Chu Yin pursued.

"Don’t think too much, it’s all in the past."

Sang Li immediately got up, preparing to return to his room.

Chu Yin had gripped the handle of his words, how could she let go easily?

She went around in front of Sang Li, "Tell me."

As she spoke, Chu Yin unconsciously leaned closer to Sang Li.

The woman’s faint fragrance expanded in the ambiguous lighting.

Cue her waist tightened, her body was pulled close to Sang Li’s, tightly pressed against his.

Instantly, she felt the change in Sang Li’s body.

Sang Li lowered his eyes to stare at Chu Yin, "Understand now?"

Chu Yin swallowed her saliva, her whole face flushed red.

"Understood."

"Go to sleep."

"Okay."

After speaking, Chu Yin turned around and ran away.

She had considered many reasons for Sang Li having feelings for her.

Never thought it was because of beauty.

Even Sang Li didn’t expect this.

Men’s desire is the most direct, most genuine.

Because the body is more honest than oneself.

If you want it, you want it; if you don’t, you don’t.

Especially Sang Li who had always been rather ascetic, not enthusiastic about these things.

Because he clearly understood the heavy responsibilities on him.

Originally, family matters were shared between him and his sister Sang Ran.

Who knew Sang Ran had an incident abroad.

During that time, his father was overwhelmed, and to take care of his sister, he took on responsibilities, flew between two countries, extremely busy.

No time at all for dating.

People in their circle are quite rational.

No matter how much they like someone, they wouldn’t cause a disgrace to the family by pestering.

Sang Li also didn’t want to solve his needs by randomly finding a woman.

As time went on, his self-control became extraordinarily strong.

Even facing Lin Zhiyi, a woman he admired, he managed to control well.

Until Chu Yin appeared.

His self-control began to crack.

He wanted her.

Once such a thought emerged, his gaze could no longer overlook Chu Yin.

The more he knew her, the less he could let go.

This was his conclusion after calmly considering for months away from her.

...

At night.

Chu Yin lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Finally, she could only smile, covering her face with a pillow. She was really afraid she’d laugh out loud.

During a turn, she heard sounds from next door.

Sang Li had been in the study earlier, only now returning to sleep.

Chu Yin immediately sat up, listening.

Sighed that Sang Li worked so hard, having to deal with work so late.

After a while, Sang Li’s silhouette suddenly appeared on the balcony glass door.

Chu Yin quickly covered her eyes.

Then sneakingly parted her fingers to watch the silhouette on the glass.

Sang Li must have just finished showering and was coming out with just a towel.

Don’t be fooled by his gentle demeanor outside, his figure was anything but gentle.

Chu Yin chuckled, seems he’s been keeping up with exercise.

At that moment, Sang Li stood at the foot of the bed and began removing the towel.

Chu Yin thought he’d already been dressed like before.

Who knew...

Looking at the scene before her, Chu Yin was startled, her eyes wide open, but she didn’t turn her head.

Why was he so unconventional?

Chu Yin’s ears burned, quickly lying down, daring not to look further.

She pulled the quilt, leaving her eyes uncovered to glance.

Sang Li had already changed into pajamas and was lying on the bed.

He leaned against the headboard, rubbing his eyes, looking exhausted.

Chu Yin quietly watched him, without any wild fantasies, only more determined to better herself, not to become anyone’s burden.

Sang Li turned off the light and lay down.

Chu Yin silently mouthed, good night.
