Zhuang Hengyu was unable to react in time. After being pulled by Zhuang Yu and seeing his sister desperately shooting him a look not to do anything, he managed to suppress his anger. After all this, it was getting late. Shen Hanxing had been woken up in the middle of the night and had experienced a moment of life and death. No matter how strong she was, it was inevitable that she would show some fatigue.
The few of them did not waste any more time. After bidding farewell, they went back to their respective homes. When Ji Qian took the car, she was so sleepy that she nodded her head. As soon as she entered the house, she yawned loudly. “Big Brother and Sister-in-law, I’m going upstairs to rest first.”
“Go ahead,” Shen Hanxing replied gently. She handed Ji Qian an ice towel. “Put some ice on your face before you go to sleep.”
Ji Qian took the ice towel and placed it on her face. She shivered from the cold. “It’s so cold. Thank you, Sister-in-law. I’ll go upstairs first.”
After Ji Qian went upstairs, Shen Hanxing raised her head to look at Ji Yan beside her. She softly said, “Mr. Ji?” When Shen Hanxing was around, Ji Yan’s gaze would always fall on her. No matter what time it was, as long as she looked back, she would always see those deep black eyes, which were gentle and deep.

Shen Hanxing’s drowsiness dissipated a little. She curled the corners of her lips and looked at the sky outside. “I’m a little hungry. Mr. Ji, do you want to have some supper together?”
Ji Yan looked at Shen Hanxing and replied in a low voice, “Okay.”
After a long night, Shen Hanxing’s stomach was indeed feeling a little empty. She opened the refrigerator and took a look. “There are wontons. How about we cook some wontons?”
“Okay.” Ji Yan’s adam’s apple moved slightly. His gaze fell on Shen Hanxing’s face. They only turned on the corridor light. The dim yellow light fell on Shen Hanxing’s face, coating it with a layer of warm light. The distance between them was very close, it was so close that Ji Yan could easily see the fine hair on Shen Hanxing’s face. It was as though as long as he lowered his head a little, he could easily kiss her and taste her sweetness.
Shen Hanxing counted the small wontons and brought them into the kitchen. She skillfully heated the wok with oil, stir-fried the shredded meat, and added the soup stock that the servants had prepared earlier. Soon, as the soup stock boiled, she lifted the lid of the wok and put in the small wontons. Hot steam instantly filled the previously empty kitchen. This scene made Shen Hanxing look extremely gentle. A strand of hair fell from her ear, and Ji Yan’s heart itched slightly. He took a step forward and carefully tucked the hair behind her ear. Shen Hanxing looked up at him with moist eyes and a faint smile.
At this moment, Ji Yan felt that his empty heart, which had been floating in the air, seemed to have returned to its roots in an instant. This was probably the taste of home…
The Auntie who was staying in the maid’s room was woken up. When she saw that Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan were busy in the kitchen, she hurriedly took a couple of steps forward. She asked, “Sir and Madam, why didn’t you call me when you wanted to eat?”
“It’s fine. The two of us were just going to have a snack.” Shen Hanxing smiled and served the cooked wontons. Ji Yan naturally took the bowl. He was dressed in a straight suit, and he was even more handsome than the others when he held the bowl. Shen Hanxing found it funny. She shook her head at the helpless maid beside her. She told the maid, “It’s still early. You should sleep a little longer. Don’t worry about us.”
The maid hesitated. At this moment, a pair of dark eyes landed on her with a hint of coldness. It made one’s body tremble. The maid came back to her senses and naturally said, “Then if you have something you need, just call for me… I, I’ll be going back to my room first…” as soon as she said that, the gaze that made one’s heart tremble instantly disappeared. The maid understood and did not disturb Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing anymore, she quietly returned to her room.
Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan faced each other and ate the small wontons. The atmosphere was quiet and beautiful. After eating, Ji Yan took the initiative to get up and put the bowls and chopsticks into the kitchen. Then, he bent down and exchanged a wonton-flavored kiss with Shen Hanxing. His voice was hoa.r.s.e as he said, “Good night, my wife.” His gaze was entwined with indescribable tenderness.
Shen Hanxing’s heart skipped a beat. She suddenly smiled and called out to Ji Yan, “Mr. Ji.”
Ji Yan turned to look at her. Shen Hanxing smiled and said, “Do you want to sleep together?” She raised her head and stood at the door of the room, looking at Ji Yan defenselessly. She was like a demoness who would only appear in the middle of the night and seduce people’s souls.
Ji Yan’s adam’s apple moved slightly. He replied huskily, “Do you know what you’re saying, my wife?”
“Of course I do.” Shen Hanxing’s smile was gentle, and her gaze was neither shifty nor evasive. In front of Ji Yan, she pushed open the door to her room. She asked, “Do you not dare, Mr. Ji?”
