Chapter 10: The Wife with a Husband

And the next second, Lu Lingxiao grabbed a bath towel and wrapped it around his waist.

It blocked Ye Xi's covetous and distracted gaze.

Tsk, Ye Xi actually felt a bit disappointed.

However, she hadn't forgotten why she came here and actually bypassed Lu Lingxiao in front of her, heading straight for the bottle of body wash behind him.

Lu Lingxiao turned around with a cannibalistic look, only to find that this woman was actually holding a bottle of body wash, reading the text on it.

Was this woman out of her mind?

After Ye Xi found what she was looking for, her mood instantly brightened.

Without even glancing at the man beside her, she prepared to leave.

But the bathroom floor was slippery, and with her bare feet, as she turned around, her whole body lunged towards Lu Lingxiao.

In an attempt to steady herself, she grabbed the towel around Lu Lingxiao's waist again.

Almost getting it pulled off once more.

Lu Lingxiao picked her up in front of him, "What are you trying to do?"

Hearing the anger in the man's tone, Ye Xi looked puzzled, "To take a shower, of course."

Lu Lingxiao undoubtedly heard a piece of nonsense.

At the same time, Lu Lingxiao realized that the woman he was holding was also wearing a bathrobe from this hotel.

However, the belt around her waist wasn't tied securely.

In the tussle, the neckline had skewed, and from his angle, the view inside the neckline was fully visible.

He unconsciously let go, but that image remained in his mind, impossible to dispel.

After dragging her out of the bathroom, Lu Lingxiao picked up the phone to call the hotel front desk.

But before he could dial out, the call was interrupted by an incoming call.

Lu Lingxiao had no choice but to answer it first.

"President Lu, this is Xiao Qi. I've almost finished negotiating with the hospital, but we can't get in touch with Miss Ye herself, her phone is off, and we can't get through at all."

Ye Xi, annoyed that Lu Lingxiao was still holding her arm, struggled.

Because Lu Lingxiao was on the phone, she managed to pull away without him noticing.

But Lu Lingxiao's eyes were fixed on her the entire time.

Ye Xi felt terribly dizzy, to the point where even walking was difficult.

Right before her was a bed.

Heaven knows how sleepy she was at that moment.

She reached out and sat on it directly.

Lu Lingxiao watched her every move and said into the phone, "Then go find her and bring her to me."

"Understood. But, President Lu, I just learned some news today, and I'm not sure how to tell you."

Lu Lingxiao felt irritable.

He wasn't even sure whether his irritation stemmed from the unknown woman who was pregnant with his child or the one in front of him now.

He said with rare anger, "Don't beat around the bush, just say it!"

Xiao Qi immediately said, "Our people just got a tip that Miss Ye... is married."

Lu Lingxiao laughed bitterly in anger.

Good, very good!

A married woman had managed to become pregnant with his child!

Perhaps feeling the pressure from the other end of the phone, Xiao Qi hurriedly asked, "President Lu, what should we do next?"

Lu Lingxiao, looking at the woman who was now lying on his bed, said through gritted teeth, "Find the person for me, and as for the child... terminate it!"

Xiao Qi actually knew the outcome without asking,

But he needed to confirm Lu Lingxiao's wishes in order to proceed.

"I understand, President Lu."

After ending the call, Lu Lingxiao's face was as dark as an impending storm.

Meanwhile, Ye Xi had already lied down and hadn't forgotten to cover herself with a blanket. She was still clutching the bottle of body wash and was about to fall asleep.
