“Who said I’m annoyed?” Xia Sheng was stunned and did not know whether to laugh or cry. This man was too jealous. Her tone could not help but be slightly teasing. “Young Master Huo, are you jealous?”
Huo Ye did not want to admit that he was jealous. Thinking of the medicine Xia Sheng had taken in the morning, he asked again, “I saw you taking medicine this morning, are you sick?”
“I’ve recovered after taking the medicine.” Xia Sheng brushed it off.
Huo Ye raised his eyebrows, suppressing his anger as he laughed coldly. “Is it already healed, or is it completely fine in the first place? You took the medicine immediately after we did it. Xia Sheng, you did a good job in doing preventive measures.”
Xia Sheng took a deep breath. It was only now that she realized what this man had misunderstood. No wonder he had been so awkward this morning. She had only been concerned about not letting Huo Ye worry, but she did not expect him to overthink.
She was amused and deliberately touched her belly to tease him. “Yes, it will hurt my health if I accidentally get pregnant and don’t want it.”
“Xia! Sheng!” Huo Ye gritted his teeth.
Xia Sheng chuckled. Just as the other party was about to flare up, she added, “I lied to you, it’s just stomach medicine. Don’t be angry.”
Hearing this, Huo Ye didn’t say anything, but even he himself felt relieved.
Xia Sheng still did not know what was going on, so she mocked him back and crazily courted death. “Young Master Huo, are you so afraid of me taking medicine?”
“…”
“But your experience is obviously lacking. You can’t even differentiate between stomach medicine and birth control medicine…”
“…”
Huo Ye was silent for a long time. In the end, he suppressed his anger and said, “Don’t think about getting out of bed when you get home.” He hung up the phone with a bang.
Xia Sheng fell.
The conflict between the two quietly dissipated.
At night, Xia Sheng was sound asleep in the room, but the door was pried open from the outside. Immediately after, a pair of rough hands reached in. The man tiptoed and carefully walked towards the sleeping Xia Sheng.
In the semi-darkness, the man walked around the other furniture in the room with ease. It was obvious that he had been here a lot. The man gradually approached the person on the bed. There was a hint of desire on his face as his hands reached out to Xia Sheng’s face.
At this moment, Xia Sheng suddenly opened her eyes and lifted the blanket, enveloping the man.
She kicked the man and the blanket away. “How dare you have designs on me? I’ll let you know what regret is!”
She had already sensed it when the door was pried open. The reason why she did not move was because she was waiting for this moment.
The man frantically tried to pull at the blanket, but the soft blanket was like a giant net that was stuck to his body. The more he struggled, the deeper he sank.
“You want to run? No way!” Xia Sheng frowned and kicked him.
In the middle of the night, the man’s shrill scream pierced the sky, scaring the rest of the Song family awake. When everyone arrived, the man had already been beaten up by Xia Sheng until he did not even have the strength to struggle. He lay on the ground like a dead dog and wailed.
When Father Song arrived, Xia Sheng had already stopped. Wearing a jacket, she calmly dialed the emergency number in case something happened to this person and she was blamed.
“What exactly happened?” Father Song asked as he shot a glance at the man on the ground.
Xia Sheng pointed at the man and complained, “This person tried to climb into my bed while I was sleeping but I discovered him.”
The man was a servant at home. She had met him once during the day. He looked like an honest man, but he actually had the audacity to touch her secretly.
Father Song’s face turned cold. Seeing that Xia Sheng was unharmed, he was both relieved and angry. “How dare he!”
“Don’t be anxious, Dad. Let’s send him to the hospital first.” Xia Sheng spread her hands and heard the siren of the ambulance from outside.
After a round of examination at the hospital, the male servant was beaten by Xia Sheng until two of his ribs were broken. The other parts of his body were also injured to varying degrees, so he was sent straight to the ICU.
The whole family woke up in the middle of the night. Father Song’s face darkened. “Investigate this matter!”
Song Qian crossed her arms and said weakly, “That servant has been working at home for so long. Maybe there’s a misunderstanding.”
Xia Sheng sneered. This bitch was acting up again.
Song Qian was frightened by Xia Sheng’s smile, but she still braced herself to defend him. “I heard from the other servants in the house that he has sleepwalking issues. He also showed the hospital’s test results. Maybe it’s really just a misunderstanding.”
“Ha, how can you prove it just by saying this?” Xia Sheng did not care, her eyes darkening.
“The things he carries with him should have proof,” Song Qian answered softly, but she couldn’t help but look at Father Song. “Dad, contact the servants at home to look for it. We can’t malign him.”
Father Song could not make up his mind. He looked deeply at Xia Sheng. “Sheng Sheng, I’ll get someone to look through his things. No matter what, we must investigate this matter to the end.”
Xia Sheng pursed her lips and did not say anything, but her heart sank. She knew that Song Qian must have something to rely on since she dared to bring out the evidence. As expected, they found a certificate from his personal belongings.
Xia Sheng knew that this was Song Qian’s doing, but she had no evidence to prove it, so her expression turned ugly.
“Sheng Sheng, I know you’re angry, but you didn’t do it on purpose. Anyway, you beat him up. It’s time for you to calm down.” Song Qian pretended to be considerate and advised Xia Sheng earnestly. “Let’s just forget about it. Don’t be angry.” She smiled innocently, her acting flawless.
“Who said we should just let this matter rest?” Suddenly, a cold voice sounded. Huo Ye descended like a god and appeared in front of Xia Sheng with two people behind him.
“Uncle Song, I think we can continue investigating this matter.” He nodded obediently at Father Song, his gaze sweeping past Xia Sheng.
Huo Ye’s appearance caught everyone off guard, but he was well-informed and managed to break the deadlock with a few words. “Forgive me for coming uninvited, but I’m here to deliver my testimony this time.”
The assistant behind him brought a plain-looking woman over. “Speak.”
This woman was the servant’s girlfriend and was also the most knowledgeable person. “He doesn’t have any sleepwalking issues. Someone came to him that day and asked him to help with something. He was greedy and agreed.”
Song Qian’s face turned pale.
Father Song’s gaze was deep as he questioned coldly, “Are you saying the truth?”
“Absolutely.” The woman nodded solemnly and took a deep look at the man on the bed, her eyes flashing with ruthlessness. “That day, I went out and came back early. I happened to hear him talking to someone, so I secretly listened to him. There’s definitely no mistake!”
Father Song’s heart was filled with mixed emotions. He glanced at Song Qian and said with an indescribable feeling, “We’ll know what happened when he wakes up.”
Song Qian felt her hair stand on end from Father Song’s glare. She forced a smile onto her face and said, “Dad, I didn’t think much about it when I saw him get the certificate at home.”
“The most important thing now is to find out who instigated this person.” Huo Ye watched the commotion and pointed out the current situation.
Soon, the man woke up. Faced with the consequences of being exposed, he gritted his teeth and refused to speak up.
An impatient look flashed across Huo Ye’s eyes. He lowered his voice and interrogated, “You’ll receive less punishment if you tell me.”
The male servant looked around but did not see the person he was thinking about. He could not hide his disappointment.
Song Qian hid behind Father Song and refused to come out. She clenched her fists and her heart was pounding.
“She’s spouting nonsense. I was horny for her, I wasn’t instigated!” In the end, the male servant couldn’t bear to expose Song Qian. He bit down and put the blame on himself.
The servant’s girlfriend didn’t believe him and the two of them started arguing in front of everyone..
