<h4>Chapter 727: Is This Being Obedient?</h4>


    Xia Xiaofu stiffened in his embrace. “I did not... Don’t be like that. We’re in the kitchen...”


    “So what if it’s the kitchen? No one wille here.” Ou Luoxi pulled her long dress up and stuck his hand inside.


    Her entire body tensed up. Xia Xiaofu felt very ufortable but did not dare to resist. She still had a favor to ask of him. She missed Little Xuyan too much.


    Ou Luoxi was not satisfied. He unhappily murmured, “Next time, wear less when you know I aming home. Other women can’t wait to remove all their clothes and bury themselves in my embrace. Only you would wrap yourself up like a rice dumpling. Wear something more sexy next time. I like it that way.”


    The scene that Xia Xiaofu had witnessed in his bedroom appeared in her mind. Gong Ling was wearing a sexy set of red lingerie, and he had exchanged kisses with her.”


    She moved her body and struggled slightly, unable to control it anymore. “I have not showered yet...”


    “It’s alright. I will take a shower after we are done.” Ou Luoxi firmly pressed her down by her slender waist and started the act.


    Xia Xiaofu went pale. Her two hands gripped the corner of the kitchen counter firmly, quietly enduring it. She knew what he meant. He would take a shower because he felt that she was dirty.


    Time seemed to pass slowly. No woman can enjoy herself under such forced circumstances. Ayer of cold sweat appeared on her forehead. She waited for his breathing to be heavier before she reached out to hold hisrge hand that was at her breast. Weakly, she begged, “I really miss Little Xuyan. Can you return my phone to me? I will be obedient to you.”


    The man behind her did not reply immediately. When he was satisfied, he gathered his eyebrows and hoarsely asked, “Did you fall on purpose during dinner?”


    Xia Xiaofu paused, her empty almond-coloured eyes instantly filled with grey. She had already lost all her pride and dignity. “Yes.” She nodded. “I did it on purpose, to...attract your attention.”


    This incited a lowugh from the man. She could not tell if it was out of mockery or happiness. He used two fingers to hook her lower jaw to him and kissed her on her red lips.


    This posture made Xia Xiaofu extremely ufortable. She clenched her teeth on purpose, not cooperating.


    She suddenly felt pain on the corner of her lip. He had cruelly ripped it. He went by her ear and unhappily said, “Is this being obedient?”


    Xia Xiaofu stiffened, swiftly opening her mouth.


    Ou Luoxi attacked it as per his original intention.


    When it finally ended and he let go of Xia Xiaofu, she weakly fell directly onto the floor. With trembling hands, she fastened her clothes to cover herself, then retreated into a corner.


    Satisfied, Ou Luoxi stood up and straightened his back. He tidied himself up before ncing at the woman, then turned and left.


    “My phone...” Xia Xiaofu quickly reminded him.


    Ou Luoxi did not stop walking, “There is a telephone in the living room. You are only allowed to make one call.”


    ...


    After taking a cold shower, Ou Luoxi stood on the balcony, lit a cigarette, and started puffing on it.


    Halfway through, he turned and threw the half-smoked cigarette bud into the ashtray, then walked out of the room.


    Standing at the top of the staircase, he looked at Xia Xiaofu who was sitting on the sofa, making a call.


    He could tell that she was anxious, as she did not even bother tidying herself first. Her silky, seaweed-like hair was messily strewn over her shoulders. Her long white dress had been crumpled by him, and she closed her legs tight as if she were in immense pain.


    “Hello, Little Xuyan... Have you missed mummy? Mummy has missed you so much.”


    She spoke intermittently in a gentle voice. Her tears covered her pale face like crystals. She used her hand to cover her mouth, not daring to cry out loud.


    Little Xuyan had not seen her mummy in a few days and burst into tears the moment she heard her mummy’s voice. Since birth, Little Xuyan had never been separated from her mother before.


    “Mummy, I miss you so much... Grandma says that Mummy is working outside and is very busy, so Little Xuyan must be obedient. But...Mummy, you haven’t called Little Xuyan...”


    Tears rolled down Little Xuyan’s face pitifully.


    “I’m sorry my baby. Mummy was... too busy and tired to call. Baby you must make sure to eat well and listen to Grandma.”


    “Mummy, then when are youing home?”


    Xia Xiaofu felt a lump in her throat. Sniffling, she replied, “Baby, Mummy will go back as soon as possible. Mummy does not like staying here at all. Mummy misses my baby every single day... Mummy will think of a way...”


    Ou Luoxi did not hear what else she said for he had turned and gone back into his bedroom. He threw the ointment in his hand directly into the dustbin.


    A finger on her right hand had gotten cut by the knife when she fell. He had seen it in the kitchen just now and thought she might need the ointment.


    But now, it seemed like she did not need it at all.


    ...


    Another week passed before Ou Luoxi returned to the vi. The servants held their breath while he was having his dinner as they could see the ck cloud hanging over their Master’s head.


    Ou Luoxi surveyed them, then threw down the chopsticks in his hand. “Shouldn’t there be someone else?”


    Everyone knew who he was referring to. Aunty Xiang respectfully stepped forward and said, “Young Master, Miss Xia was feeling unwell these past few days and has been lying in bed for a few days now.”


    Feeling unwell?


    Ou Luoxi’s heart pounded, but he swiftly revealed a bitter smile. She was feeling unwell the moment he came back. Could there be such a coincidence?


    She was just trying to avoid him.


    Ou Luoxi stood up and went upstairs.


    He opened the door to the guest room and went in. A tiny figurey on the huge, soft bed. He approached and whipped off the nket. “Get up.”


    Xia Xiaofu was still in a daze from being woken abruptly. She forced her eyes open and saw Ou Luoxi fiercely standing beside the bed. She put a hand to her forehead and got off the bed. “You’re back?”


    “Help me remove my clothes,” Ou Luoxi ordered, his face cold and rigid.


    “Ok,” Xia Xiaofu nodded, removing his suit on her tiptoes. She then started removing his necktie.


    Seeing her meekly submitting to him, it made Ou Luoxi even more furious. He grabbed her slender waist, bent down, and went directly for her lips.


    “Don’t...” Xia Xiaofu struggled, shoving him weakly. She feebly said, “I can’t wait upon you today. It’s inconvenient... I’m having my period...”


    Ou Luoxi did not care. He reached out and tore at her clothes.


    Suddenly, she crumpled in his arms. Xia Xiaofu had fainted.


    A shock went through Ou Luoxi’s body. rm and panic streaked his beautiful eyes. “Xiaofu... Xia Xiaofu!”


    ...


    The servant saw the doctor out the door while Ou Luoxi stood at the bedside and looked at the woman lying there.


    The doctor had said that she was indeed on her monthly cycle and would have cramps as well as cold palms and feet, so she needed to rest in bed. The doctor also said that she had been under too much pressuretely and had fainted due to a temporaryck of oxygen, but it was nothing too serious.


    “Young Master, you have not had your dinner yet. Shall we prepare dinner now?”
