Chapter 132

XunMi finally woke up three hours later.

“You’re awake. Hurry and eat some food. After eating, you can go back to sleep.” Tang Guo Er put down her laptop and beckoned for XunMi to come and eat.

XunMi washed her hands and sat down at the dining table awaiting to be fed, all while yawning repeatedly.

Tang Guo Er almost fell back into a stupor. My goddess, this is breaking the rules. Using your big peach blossom eyes to look at me with anticipation is too cute!

While they ate, Tang Guo Er’s phone rang. XunMi stayed true to her reputation as a walking RMB maker [T/N: RMB is the Chinese currency abbreviation}. Variety show Powder with Color had invited XunMi for an interview. This show had pretty high ratings.When they decided to return home, Tang Guo Er researched the handful of reputed and well received shows and varieties in the country. This Powder with Color was hosted by the celebrated Xia QiDai, each week had its own theme. There was no fixed script nor specific requirements to fulfill. Besides having four guests per week, the show had a relaxed atmosphere.

XunMi could use this show to formally greet the domestic audience for the first time.

“Rest up tomorrow. I’ll pick you up at night.” Tang Guo Er cleaned up and discussed the upcoming schedule with XunMi before leaving.

XunMi washed up before going back to sleep again.

Downstairs, the cellphone left behind repeated lit up, yet there was no one to answer. Finally, after stubbornly ringing for another half hour, the phone shut off completely.

This scared the overly imaginative person that had been continuously calling XunMi. Without even thinking, he got in his car to go look for her. Ou JinYan had received news of XunMi’s return yesterday. He wanted to go pick her up but feared that she had forgotten who he was. Instead, he spent the afternoon and evening endlessly refreshing Weibo for pictures and videos of XunMi, the infatuation obvious in his eyes. He didn’t know why but his heart sped up crazily after seeing XunMi this time.

He had long known that he loved her. But this time, he suddenly wanted to imprison her so that only he could see her. He didn’t want her smiling towards others, he didn’t want others looking at her with such adoration.

She was his only, she could only belong to him.

This sudden feeling had hit him abruptly and ferociously. He didn’t even have time to stop the feeling from growing. He could only fall further and further. If Mi’er didn’t remember him or didn’t like him, he would have gone crazy. But he didn’t want to give up. No matter what, he planned on tying her to his side.

He had dialed a number he remembered by heart. However, no one picked up the phone on the other end. After calling more than ten times, Ou JinYan could no longer sit still.

His imagination had gone wild. Did something happen to Mi’er? Why isn’t she picking up? No, he needed to go check himself.

On the other side of town, Ni XunMi’s second brother was also glaring at his phone.

“FengHua, tell us. Did you get through to your sister or not? Why are you just staring at your phone like a fool?” A handsome forty something Father Ni slammed open the door to the study room and asked his son. His tone was anxious. He had also called XunMi but failed to get a response.

Ni FengHua shook his head. “Maybe she’s too tired and fell asleep. I called Guo Er, she said Mi was home. Dad, you and Mom rest up first. Don’t worry, I’ll go and check up on her.” After reminding his son to be careful on the road, Father Ni let his son free.

XunMi was snoring deep in REM sleep while her front door was continuously being knocked on. Finally the determined pounding successfully woke up the girl nearing hibernation mode. As if sleepwalking, XunMi walked downstairs and thrust open the door. Then, she leaned on the doorway and sleepily blinked her eyes.

Ou JinYan has been knocking endlessly. Maybe Mi’er wasn’t home? After knocking for a few minutes, he saw the lights turn on inside and nervously waited for the door to open. The view that he was greeted with made his heart burn. He really wanted to hide this little seductress away.

She wore loose-fitting sapphire blue pajamas. The sleeves were embellished with white flower patterns. Hidden underneath her loose and soft chestnut colored hair was an unusually striking face. Her brows were slightly knit together while her eyes were narrowed as she tried to blink away her sleepiness. Her eyes’ usual dazzling brightness was replaced with softness like the spring breeze.

XunMi finally cleared her head under his passionate gaze. Her sudden rise in heartbeat frequency and the familiar reaction of her soul told her that this handsome face with its striking features belonged to her dear husband.

She let out a large bright smile and fell into his arms, sighing with satisfaction. “Little gege.” This was the male lead of this book, Ou Corporations’ chairman, Ou JinYan.

She thought it would take some time before she bumped into this person but it looked like she got lucky.

Ou JinYan’s stiffness and carefulness was gone, replaced by a deep sense of doting and gentleness. He was Ou JinYan. What should he be afraid of? Mi’er was the person he loved, the person that he refused to let go of in this lifetime. This had been clear to him early on so what was there to hesitate on?

He wrapped his arms tightly around the little one rubbing her face on his chest, his lips curving into a charming smile. “I thought my little princess Mi’er won’t remember your little gege. You didn’t even pick up my calls. You scared me so much that I came here immediately. So heartless.” He tapped XunMi on the nose and spoke helplessly.

XunMi laughed shamelessly. “How would Mi’er forget little gege. But it’s been so many years since we last saw each other. Little gege has become a big gege. You’ve also become more handsome. My little gege is the most handsome!” She made a thumbs-up gesture and shamelessly praised her own husband.

Ou JinYan’s entire heart was burning, refusing to calm down. Mi’er saying ‘my gege’ was definitely the sweetest words in the world.

“En, you’ve gotten much taller. I can’t call you a little gege anymore.” XunMi rubbed her chin and mumbled to herself.

Ou JinYan immediately stiffened. What did Mi’er mean? Did she not want to seem close to him? No, that won’t do. He won’t allow it. Just as the demon inside him was about to erupt out, one sentence immediately brought him back up to heaven.

“I’ll just call you Jin ge. It sounds nice and intimate. Jin ge. Only I can call you that okay? You can’t let anyone else alright?”
