The Art of Pursuing: The Unyielding Ex-wife-Chapter 18: How Can You Come in Without Permission
Chapter 18: Chapter 18: How Can You Come in Without Permission
Seeing her unyielding demeanor, Xu Yisen stopped teasing her, "Get some rest early, good night."
Qin Muni impatiently waved her hand, "Mm, be careful on the road."
Only after giving her one last look did Xu Yisen turn and leave.
And it was only after he left that Qin Muni realized that his trench coat was still draped over her shoulders.
"I’ll return it next time," she muttered softly before entering a string of numbers on the door’s keypad and walking into the house.
The house Qin Muni lived in now was the one Xu Yisen left her after their divorce; it was their wedding house when they got married.
The house was situated in the most bustling area of the city center, resulting in sky-high property prices.
The community called Fanluo Residence was developed by the Fanshu Group. There are a total of four buildings in the community, each with thirty floors, and only two residences per floor. Each apartment has a massive space, and the residents are all of high-ranking officials and aristocrats of notable status.
The apartment Qin Muni lived in spanned the fifteenth and sixteenth floors. Initially, Xu Yisen hired a renowned interior designer to create a loft apartment, decorating it entirely according to his preferences and style.
After their divorce, Qin Muni hired a designer again to redesign the house. It still followed the loft style, but the interior decor was adjusted to her preferences. After the renovation, the house felt even cozier than before.
Hence, when Xu Yisen once again stepped into this home he hadn’t visited in three months and saw the completely transformed interior, he couldn’t help but show a hint of surprise.
He took off his suit jacket and left it on the sofa, then walked into the kitchen to pour himself a glass of warm water.
"Yes, that’s exactly what I plan to do, so President Liang, are you considering investing some money in my sister?"
"Come on, with such a beautiful boss lady in charge, are you still worried about losing money?"
"Alright, alright... Oh, my goodness!"
While having a phone conversation with Liang Ziyuan, Qin Muni was walking towards the kitchen but couldn’t help but scream when she saw a familiar figure with his back to her!
Liang Ziyuan on the other end was a bit puzzled by her sudden shout of ’Oh my goodness’, and thus asked, "What’s wrong?"
"I’ll call you back later," she said hastily before hanging up the phone.
Her eyes looked in disbelief at Xu Yisen turning around slowly.
His posture was upright, like refined bamboo, wearing a white shirt with sleeves rolled up to his mid-arm, revealing his gracefully toned arms. His long fingers were clutching a glass cup, inside which was half a glass of freshly poured warm water.
Under the soft, elegant light, his thin lips slightly lifted, with a trace of an aristocratic smile at the corners of his mouth, shining like a beam of light suddenly breaking the darkness.
Staring at the gentle and jade-like Xu Yisen who had shed all icy defenses, she was momentarily stumped and her heart skipped a beat for a moment.
After a while, she snapped out of it and slowly asked, "Why are you here?"
Xu Yisen lightly raised his eyebrows, the smile at his lips carrying a hint of nonchalance, "Didn’t I already tell you?"
With his words, he leaned the cup towards his lips, slightly tilted his chin, and took a sip of the warm water.
"When did you?"
"Just now, I asked for your opinion on WeChat."
Upon hearing his response, Qin Muni picked up her phone and indeed saw two unread voice messages from him on the screen.
After coming home, she went straight to the bathroom to shower, and just as she came out of the bathroom, she received Liang Ziyuan’s call, so she hadn’t noticed the WeChat messages he sent.
"I didn’t respond to you, how can you just come in on your own?"
Qin Muni glared at him complainingly, then walked to the wine cabinet to take out a bottle of red wine.
