Chapter 1076: He Wants to Publicly Demonstrate His Affection

Ye Xiaotao found the cigarette and the lighter. She walked back to Leng Hao, took out a cigarette, and handed it to him. “Honey.”

Leng Hao did not take it. He played a tile.

Ye Xiaotao didn’t know what to do. She thought he wanted to smoke? Why didn’t he take the cigarette?

She got closer to him and placed the cigarette next to his mouth.

The man parted his thin lips and held the cigarette in his mouth.

Ye Xiaotao exclaimed silently, “Could it be that he wanted me to feed him the cigarette like this?”

She quickly dismissed the thought. Although the two of them were in love, Leng Hao had a cold personality and had never done such a lovey-dovey thing with her.

Ye Xiaotao’s father and uncles were both present. Was this Leng Hao’s way of publicly demonstrating his affection?

Ye Xiaotao had butterflies in her stomach. Her fingertips had accidentally brushed against his lips. His lips were cold and very soft. They felt quite nice.

He held the cigarette in his mouth and didn’t light it. Ye Xiaotao acted calm on the outside and then lit the cigarette for him.

Uncle Zhao and uncle Sun both laughed when they saw this. “Young master Leng, Xiaotao, are you guys showing off? That’s not very nice. Xiaotao. Why don’t you light a cigarette for me too?”

Father Ye tossed the cigarette and the lighter to the two uncles. He scolded, “You’re being disrespectful! Light your own cigarettes!”

Both uncles took a cigarette and lit it. “I’m just joking. Look at how protective you are. But in all seriousness, Xiaotao, you’re still in college, right? When your baby bump gets bigger in the future, you won’t be able to hide it anymore. So for safety’s sake, I think you should take a six-month leave of absence first. You can go back to school after the child is born.”

“No!” Ye Xiaotao immediately pouted and retorted, “If I take a leave of absence, how boring would that be? I want to go to school. Besides, winter vacation is coming up. When I really can’t hide it anymore, it’ll be school break.”

Father Ye played a tile. He glanced at Leng Hao and said, “I can’t make the call on this matter. The two of you can figure it out.”

Father Ye wanted to hear Leng Hao’s opinion.

Leng Hao looked at Ye Xiaotao. The girl was looking at him with hope in her eyes. He smiled and said, “Your call.”

Leng Hao knew that Ye Xiaotao yearned for freedom. She was like a little bird that wanted to fly freely. She was in the prime of her years for school and education. She had youth and dreams.

Uncle Zhao and uncle Sun sighed. “Fine, just pretend that we didn’t say anything!”

Ye Xiaotao felt happy. The feeling she got when her husband and her daddy protected her was really good. And she had a baby in her; Ye Xiaotao felt very happy.

Then, Leng Hao said in his low and masculine voice, “You can go to bed first. We’re smoking and secondhand smoke is bad for the child.”

Ye Xiaotao looked at Leng Hao. He held the cigarette between his fingers and breathed out the smoke in a different direction. He tried to keep Ye Xiaotao from smelling the smoke. So he exhaled a puff of smoke before looking back at her.

Although smoking was not healthy, the way Leng Hao looked when he smoked was eccentric in Ye Xiaotao’s eyes.

Ye Xiaotao stood up, blushing. “Daddy, Uncle Zhao, and uncle Sun, I’m going to bed. And honey, you should rest early too.”

After saying that, Ye Xiaotao turned around and went upstairs.

As she was going upstairs, she heard Uncle Zhao and uncle Sun tease her. “Young master Leng, does Xiaotao usually stick to you? We’re playing mahjong. It’s only been a few rounds and Xiaotao is already urging you to go to bed.”

“Exactly. It’s like she’s scared of us hoarding you.”

…

Ye Xiaotao returned to her room. Then, Auntie Miao walked in with a plate in her hand. She took the glass of milk on the plate and handed it to Ye Xiaotao. “Xiaotao, have a glass of warm milk before you go to bed. It’s good for the child and your sleep.”

“Thank you, Auntie Miao.” Ye Xiaotao took the glass of milk. Then, Ye Xiaotao saw the bottle of red wine on the plate. Her craving was immediately aroused. She had not drunk wine in a long time.

Although she had low tolerance, she just could not resist the fragrance of the wine.

“Auntie Miao, who is the red wine for?”

“Oh, I’m going downstairs to see if your dad and the others want any.”

Ye Xiaotao coughed and said in a serious tone, “Auntie Miao, leave the red wine with me. My husband likes it. He’ll want some when he comes up late.”

“Sure, this one is a limited edition. Your dad had been saving it. Young master Leng will definitely like it.” Auntie Miao put the wine on the nightstand.

Ye Xiaotao was delighted. She quickly finished the milk in the glass. “Auntie Miao, here.”

“Okay, Xiaotao. Good night.” Auntie Miao left.

Once Auntie Miao left, Ye Xiaotao immediately danced in circles happily. She found a bottle opener and secretly opened the red wine. She took a whiff of the wine’s fragrance and exclaimed in excitement.

She was too eager to even find a wine glass. She took a sip right from the bottle.

It was delicious!

She drank a few more sips.

Delicious!

But she didn’t dare to drink anymore. Because she was pregnant, she could only take a few sips of the red wine.

After putting the wine lid back on, she went to the closet and pick out a pair of pajamas. Then, she headed to the bathroom for a shower.

As she was taking the shower, Ye Xiaotao felt dizzy. Oh no, she was drunk.

Would the baby get drunk too?

She shouldn’t have drunk so much.

Ye Xiaotao blamed herself. She quickly rinsed off the foam on her body and put on her pajamas. As she walked to the big bed, she felt as if the world was spinning. She quickly got under the blanket.

If her dad and husband found out about this, they would definitely scold her. Whatever, she had better go to sleep first.

She felt really dizzy.

…

An hour had passed after Ye Xiaotao left the group of men.

Father Ye looked at the time and said, “Leng Hao, it’s getting late. You should go and rest first. Let Auntie Miao take over and play with us for a while.”

“Okay.” Leng Hao stood up.

Auntie Miao took over and said with a smile, “Young master Leng, you have so much asset right now. Don’t be angry with me if I lose them all.”

“It’s all on me. Enjoy yourselves.” Leng Hao nodded politely and then headed upstairs.

Uncle Zhao and uncle Sun smiled when they saw Leng Hao enter the room. “Old man Ye, it seems that young master Leng is quite a jealous character. We’ve only briefly mentioned Gong, and young master Leng was already deliberately showing off.”

Father Ye looked at the mahjong tile in his hand. “It’s only normal. It’d be strange if he didn’t get jealous.”

“Haha,” the two laughed. “But old man Ye, I think young master Leng is quite overbearing. Xiaotao is fully under his control. Xiaotao is simple-minded, so I hope she doesn’t get bullied in the future.”

Father Ye looked at the two of them. “Am I dead to you?”

Uncle Zhao and uncle Sun changed the topic. “Old man Ye, you dote on Xiaotao the most. Seeing that you’re so satisfied with young master Leng, you’re not thinking of handing over the Ye business to him, are you?”

Father Ye laughed. “That’s a possibility.”

Uncle Zhao and uncle Sun looked at each other. It seemed to them that old man Ye was seriously considering it. They didn’t expect that the business his three sons fought so hard over would end up in a stranger’s pocket.
