Lu Lingxiao looked at her with disdain and pushed her away from him, yet as soon as Zhao Manman's body left his, she slid toward the ground, leaving Lu Lingxiao with no choice but to grab her again.
Seizing the opportunity, Zhao Manman clung to him like a spider, her whole body pressed against his, as if she couldn't bear to be apart from him.
Normally, the housekeeper, Auntie Lin, would be available to lend a hand, but today Auntie Lin had to "pretend to be sick" and did not show up.
Zhao Manman faced Lu Lingxiao and said, "I'm not leaving tonight, okay? I want to sleep in your arms... The last time we slept together, you told me you wouldn't leave me, didn't you?"
Lu Lingxiao frowned deeply, while at the same time, something else captured Zhao Manman's attention.
Ye Xi came down the stairs, completely stunned.
She stood there, feeling like a superfluous presence.
She lost all reaction, and Zhao Manman's words just now had not missed a single pass into her ears.
