The Obsessive Tycoon Claims the Deserted Heiress-Chapter 170 - 169: He went to Ruan Yuan’s house.

Shi Weiqing lightened his grip slightly but still didn’t let go of the hands encircling her waist.

He lowered his head, placing a gentle kiss on her forehead. The sadness and self-reproach that had been churning in his heart gradually subsided.

"Are you two going to kiss or not?" Jin Yunzhi, who had been holding up his phone the entire time, was starting to feel his arm ache but still hadn’t managed to capture their intimate moment.

Yu Zhi: "..."

The abrupt voice made her glance at the boy before she turned her head and buried it into the man’s chest.

Shi Weiqing curved his lips into a smile—a smile that seemed to part the dense clouds, letting the sunlight reappear.

He held the girl’s hand, guiding her to sit on the carpet with him before picking up the already-completed test paper to review it.

"You solved this question?" The man pointed at a large problem written out in dense characters.

Based on the girl’s performance during the last monthly exam, it seemed unlikely that she could have written such a perfect answer.

"I taught her!" Jin Yunzhi quickly chimed in, puffing up his chest proudly and raising his chin with a hint of pride. "Impressive, right?"

"Then why don’t you explain why you used this method to solve it?"

"I... I’ve always used this method!"

Shi Weiqing, feeling playful, casually wrote a math problem on a blank sheet of paper and slid it over in front of the boy. "Try solving this one."

Jin Yunzhi glanced at the incomprehensible characters on the sheet, and the smugness on his face vanished completely.

He blinked twice in panic, clutched his stomach, and groaned, "I—I have a stomachache. I need to go to the bathroom first."

Watching the boy dash upstairs in a whirlwind, Shi Weiqing chuckled and shook his head lightly, setting aside the problem he had written.

Yu Zhi pinched his waist and complained, "Why do you always have to tease him?"

Like a child. So immature.

"Ouch." Shi Weiqing frowned tightly, pretending to be in unbearable pain. "Zhizhi, you’re trying to murder your husband."

Yu Zhi, knowing full well how little strength she had used, rolled her eyes at him and ignored his antics. She picked up her pen and resumed working on her exercises.

"..." Unable to keep up his act, Shi Weiqing coughed lightly, wrapped his arms around the girl’s waist, and pulled her back into his embrace.

He planted a lingering kiss on her jelly-like cheek, his deep voice tinged with tenderness. "I’m here to keep you company."

Yu Zhi paused for a moment, then looked helplessly at the blank physics test in front of her, her cherry-red lips pursed tightly.

After writing two multiple-choice questions, she set down her pen and turned to glance at the man beside her.

Shi Weiqing raised an eyebrow. "Not in the mood to continue?"

For some reason, the girl just couldn’t stand doing homework. Every time she came home from school, she wished she could throw her backpack out the window.

Yu Zhi tugged on his sleeve. "Shi Wei..."

"No room for negotiation." The man took the pen and placed it back in her palm. His stance was so firm that he didn’t even look at her again.

Yu Zhi lowered her gaze, then tugged on his sleeve again.

After a long while, seeing that the man remained unmoved, she gritted her teeth and softly called out, "Hubby, help me write."

That one word—hubby—struck Shi Weiqing right in his weak spot.

He stared at the girl’s rosy cheeks, barely suppressing the smile threatening to stretch across his face. "What? I didn’t hear you."

The girl lifted her eyes, noticing his seemingly indifferent expression and assuming he genuinely hadn’t heard her. So, she repeated softly again.

"Hubby, help me write, please?" For the sake of this damn homework, she was truly throwing all caution to the wind.

"Say it one more time."

"Hub—mmph..."

The taste of mint and candy mingled within their mouths.

The man cradled the back of the girl’s head as they shared an entangled, intoxicating dance in that sugary-sweet realm.

Only after the kiss ended did they slowly pull apart.

Shi Weiqing, brimming with satisfaction, gently wiped away the shimmer on her lips. Holding her hand, he placed the pen back into her grip, his deep voice raspy with affection. "If you ever use that tactic again, Zhizhi, there’ll be consequences."

Yu Zhi, still dizzy from the kiss, didn’t ponder what exactly he meant by "consequences" and simply nodded absentmindedly.

The warm rays of the setting sun bathed the couple, outlining their embrace with golden, sparkling edges.

Shi Weiqing diligently worked on the girl’s homework while explaining the steps and methods to her. His low, sexy voice found its way into her ears and seeped into her heart.

At the staircase, Xu Changxiao stood frozen, staring at the girl for a long moment. Finally, carrying an eager heart, he descended the steps alongside the woman next to him.

Stopping by the coffee table, he waited until she had packed her homework back into her bag before calling her name in an attempt to get her attention.

Yu Zhi subtly examined the man in front of her. The middle-aged man in a meticulously tailored suit exuded a refined and elegant air—someone clearly born into privilege.

Looking at his brows, which resembled Xu Zhen’s, she started to piece together some guesses in her heart but didn’t know what to say.

Fortunately, Xu Changxiao took the initiative to say, "Little Zhi, I’m Xu Changxiao, your uncle."

When he uttered the word "uncle," he watched the girl’s expression nervously, afraid she might react negatively.

Yu Zhi nodded. Her gaze then shifted to the woman behind Xu Changxiao, whose eyes were red and brimming with tears, as if she would cry at any moment. "Auntie?"

Chang Yalin quickly responded, joy and sorrow mingling as she bent down to stroke the girl’s head, choking up, "You’re so thin. Why aren’t you eating more?"

Just thinking about the hardships this child had endured in the past made her heart ache unbearably; she wished she could’ve borne all the suffering on her behalf.

Yu Zhi furrowed her brows slightly and answered matter-of-factly, "My body’s just not prone to gaining weight."

"Right, it runs in the Xu Family." Whether it was the old master or Xu Changxiao himself,

or even the younger generation, none of them had bodies that gained weight easily.

Hearing this, Chang Yalin’s heart felt a bit lighter. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

She held the girl’s hand, her lips curling into a smile, chatting with her casually about everyday life and studies.

The earlier tension loosened, and faint laughter occasionally broke the atmosphere.

"Buzz, buzz—"

The phone on the sofa vibrated twice consecutively. Yu Zhi glanced at its screen and raised an eyebrow as she swiped the unfamiliar text open.

Displayed on the screen was a photograph of that familiar building in Yushui Bay, accompanied by several striking words: [Your old friend K.]

Yu Zhi clenched the phone tightly, her expression instantly turning dark. Grabbing her backpack, she stood up abruptly. "I have something to do. I’m leaving."

Before anyone present could even react, she strode with urgency out of the Jin Family’s door.

"Zhizhi, who sent you the message?" Shi Weiqing, holding a coat, chased after her in just a few steps.

"K." Yu Zhi didn’t stop walking, a trace of ferocity flashing in her eyes. "He’s gone to Ruan Yuan’s house."

She had known from the moment he escaped from the man’s grip that he wouldn’t give up so easily. But she hadn’t expected that his next target would be Ruan Yuan.
