The Billionaire's Hidden Affection-Chapter 470 - 467 I Spoil You 9_1

Even stranger still was a complete set of skincare and cosmetics.

When she left home, she had only packed two or three outfits. Since she planned to stay cooped up in the hotel, she didn’t think she’d need to dress to the nines. However, she had grown tired of those few outfits, especially after wearing them for a whole month.

Unexpectedly, that brute Donglin sent over several sets of clothes at just the right moment.

Her thoughts of possibly going home were immediately dismissed.

Little did she know, that was exactly what Wan Donglin feared. At this point, he couldn’t guarantee she wouldn’t be swayed by Huang Xiaojue’s sweet words and lose her resistance.

The dresses were simple in style yet of good quality, but they had no brand labels, so she didn’t know their prices. Of course, Yan Xixi had no idea that Wan Donglin had specifically instructed for all the labels to be removed.

The skincare products were exactly what she desperately needed. She hadn’t brought any with her and had been making do with the disposable moisturizer provided by the hotel.

With nothing better to do, she washed up and applied some of the new skincare. She then put on some light makeup and began trying on the dresses one by one. To her pleasant surprise, they fit perfectly. Their colors were also elegant and tasteful, a stark contrast to the bold reds and greens she used to pick. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

She instantly transformed into the epitome of a wealthy, fair, and beautiful woman.

That brute actually has surprisingly good taste, she thought.

One rose-gray dress, in particular, caught her eye. It had no embellishments, but its lines were smooth and flowing, making it incredibly beautiful. Even she found herself staring, a little stunned.

A smile touched her lips. When I finally meet that brute, I’ll wear this dress.

「One day」

She was reading until midnight when she became extremely hungry. Tired of the hotel’s late-night snacks and not in the mood for fruit, she suddenly craved grilled skewers.

But where could she get grilled skewers at this hour? Suppressing her hunger, she closed her eyes and lay in bed, but she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Inevitably, her thoughts turned to Huang Xiaojue. She opened her other phone and saw countless messages, all from him.

She couldn’t bring herself to read them, not a single word.

Why do I hate him so much? she wondered in a daze. Is it because his family bullied me so relentlessly? He was the person I relied on most, the only one I trusted—it felt as if my entire faith in him, in everything, had been shattered overnight.

Her heart felt as cold as iron. Resolutely, she turned off that phone.

Just then, her other phone pinged with a new message: "Miss, are you asleep?"

"Not yet. I’m starving. I’m suddenly craving grilled skewers, especially big ostrich meat ones."

"Pfft. Grilled skewers? They’re basically at the top of the junk food list. Eating too many is bad for you."

"Once in a while won’t hurt. Besides, where would I even get them this late at night? I was just thinking aloud. I’m going to bed."

"You really want some?"

"Yes, really. But the hotel doesn’t have grilled skewers. I checked the menu—it’s all pasta, salads, and stuff like that. Not what I’m in the mood for."

The other person didn’t reply. Yan Xixi turned off the light, but she was so hungry, how could she sleep? After tossing and turning for a while, she got up again to continue reading. Suddenly, the intercom buzzed. It was the front desk. "Miss Yan, could you please open your door? One of our attendants has a late-night snack for you."

She was puzzled. "But I didn’t order any late-night snacks."

"This is a gift for you from a gentleman."

Yan Xixi immediately got up to open the door. A server entered, holding an exquisite tray. And what was artfully arranged on it if not large, grilled meat skewers?

Along with this came a cup of steaming fresh coffee.

The server was particularly courteous. "These are freshly grilled large ostrich meat skewers, Miss. Please enjoy."
