Chapter 12 liar, you lied to me

Suddenly, a few knocks on the door made them separate from each other.

"Third brother, are you there?"

Qin Sheng was furious. Why did Aunt Zixian have to come at this time? She was so close to her dream...

Gong Mochen immediately lurched back. He grabbed the girl's arm and pulled her into the bathroom. Then, he took his bathrobe off the back of the door and put it on.

"Don't move!" he snapped at the girl, closing the bathroom door.

Qin Sheng heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, her aunt didn't storm in, or else she would have seen her.

She leaned against the wall and listened to the noises outside. Why had her aunt come in here so late? Was that a good thing? What did she want of Gong Mochen?

Gong Mochen opened the door to the room. Qin Zixian looked at the man standing in the door. He was wearing a white bathrobe, revealing half of his chest and his firm pectoral muscles.

Qin Zixian blushed at the sight of Gong Mochen, then quickly shook her head and presented the document in her hand. She lowered her gaze and said, "Third brother, there is something I don't understand about the terms of this contract. I'd like to ask your opinion on it."

The woman's voice was gentle and pleasant, as gentle as a pool of spring water.

"It's too late today. I'll explain it to you tomorrow at the company offices," Gong Mochen said in a deep voice.

"Tomorrow? But the people in the office told me that the contract has to be sorted out today. I need it for tomorrow when I discuss it with the client," Qin Zixian said.

"Then wait a moment. I'll change into my clothes and we'll go to the study," Gong Mochen said.

"There's no need to go through so much trouble. I'll come into your room and you can explain it to me here." Qin Zixian walked into the man's room without further explanation.

Gong Mochen frowned. He'd wanted to change into his clothes, but Qin Sheng was in the bathroom, and Qin Zixian was in the room. Alas, he would have to stay in the bathrobe and quickly explain the contract to Qin Zixian.

"What don't you understand?"

"It's this clause. Why don't we ask for a little more deposit? I want to increase the deposit so that we can guarantee that the other party won't go back on their word after signing the contract. Third Brother, sit down!"

Qin Zixian reached out and grabbed the man's arm. The body lotion on his body emitted an alluring fragrance, making her want to get close to him.

"The state recognizes and protects 20% of the deposit. No matter how high we set it, it's useless. After all, it's not protected by the law. As long as we deal with the prosecution, we have to refund the money," Gong Mochen explained.

Qin Zixian's eyes focused on the man's well-defined face.

Gong Mochen didn't wait for the woman to reply and continued, "If you understand now, go back to sleep. I don't want you to be late tomorrow."

Qin Zixian awkwardly pursed her lips and stood up. It hadn't been easy for her to enter Gong Mochen's room, so what could she do to make it so that she didn't have to leave?

She could pull a fast one, that's what! Qin Zixian's feet slipped from beneath her and she fell into the man's body.

"Ah, Third Brother, I sprained my ankle!" She grabbed the man's arm and leaned against his body.

Gong Mochen's arm supported the woman and pulled her up so she didn't lean on him. "Sprained your ankle? Let me help you sit down and call a doctor for you."

Qin Zixian's forehead creased. "No need! It's not that serious. Third Brother, do you have safflower oil? Can you help me apply some?"

Qin Zixian added weakly, "We won't be able to call a doctor at this time. It's too late."

Gong Mochen helped Qin Zixian to sit on the bed and went to get the safflower oil. "Here's the safflower oil. I'll get sister Yu to come and apply it on you."

"Third brother, it'll be quicker if you apply the safflower oil. It will take time for Sister Yu to come here, so you can do it, Brother," Qin Zixian said.

Qin Sheng, who was still in the bathroom, heard everything clearly. What a saint her aunt was!

She turned away, casually picked up the resin soap box on the sink and threw it on the ground.

BANG!

Qin Zixian, who was still on the bed, was shocked and her gaze darted to the bathroom. "W-who's in the bathroom?"

"No one is in the bathroom. You're hearing things. It's the sound of next door," Gong Mochen explained quickly. He couldn't let Qin Zixian find Qin Sheng in his room, or Qin Sheng would be in an even worse situation in this house.

"It didn't sound like next door!" Qin Zixian said in confusion.

"Well it was next door. The soundproofing here isn't good. Next door is second sister-in-law's room," Gong Mochen said.

Qin Zixian frowned. What on earth was second sister-in-law doing to make such a racket? It had been very loud.

Qin Sheng rolled her eyes, picked up the mouthwash cup, and threw it on the ground. A thought formed in her mind then. Qin Shen actually hoped her aunt would find her, then maybe everyone would see that Gong Mochen was her man!

The sound was louder this time.

Qin Zixian shot up from the bed. She was sure that she hadn't heard wrong this time. The sound came from the bathroom! There was no question.

"Who is hiding in the bathroom? Come Out!" Qin Zixian rushed to the bathroom door angrily.

"The hamster that Qin Sheng brought is in the bathroom! It probably got out of its cage," Gong Mochen said hurriedly.

"Aahhh! Hamster!" Qin Zixian immediately stopped and screeched as if she had seen a ghost. She hated those furry four-legged things!

"It's a hamster. I'll go in and catch it and show you!" Gong Mochen said as he walked to the bathroom.

"Ah! No! It's OK!" Qin Zixian was so scared that she ran out of the bedroom. Her speed was as fast an Olympic sprinter.

"Bah! You sprained your ankle? You sprained your ankle faster than a rabbit? " Qin Sheng walked out of the bathroom and said angrily.

Gong Mochen closed the door and his lips formed into a straight line. "You made a sound on purpose! Qin Sheng, have you no shame? You deliberately wanted Zixian to find you in my room!"

Qin Sheng raised her little face. "Leave me alone, Uncle! Little Auntie ran into your room and even pretended to sprain her ankle for your attention. She's the one who doesn't know shame!"

"Little Auntie clearly wants to marry you, and that's why you chased me away the other day! You chased me away because you want to marry Auntie! You big liar! You lied to me!"

She shook her little fist and punched the man's chest, crying out in anguish.

"You're mine! I won't let anyone take you away! I won't, I won't, I won't!"

Gong mochen looked at the crying little face in front of him and his heart ached. "I didn't lie to you. I didn't ask you to leave because of Qin Zixian. Please, don't cry! Settle down."

His anger was extinguished at the sight of Qin Sheng's tears. How could he bear to see her cry?

Qin Sheng took the opportunity to hook her arm around the man's neck. "Uncle, I want you to love me, pamper me, and love me for the rest of your life! I want to be your woman!"
