Becoming Audacious After Marriage: Madam, Please Keep A Low Profile Chapter 26
Advertisement
Li Beichen narrowed his deep eyes, a hint of danger swirling beneath the surface. His fingers rubbed his brows as if he wanted to drive something away, but to no avail.
He slowly lit up a cigarette and blew out white smoke from his thin lips. His handsome face was shrouded by the smoke and looked unfathomable.
This woman was really…
Before the cigarette had finished burning, his eyes darkened. Placing the cigarette in the ashtray, the spark was immediately extinguished…
Shi Yuxuan only dared to lean back lazily on the sofa, sinking her body deeply into it when he turned around, went back into the study room and stopped looking at her. Lying in that position, she couldn't deny that she felt a little uncomfortable. Thus, she lifted her legs and placed them on the table.
She looked casual and unbridled.
Looking at the modern and minimalistic villa, many thoughts flashed through Shi Yuxuan's complex gaze until it gradually calmed down.
She suddenly felt that it was ridiculous. She had been too cowardly.
It was just a business marriage.
With their wedding happening in one month, Sophia would be able to leech onto Yuzun in the future. It was only in this way that she could finally repay Shi Qi, who had brought her out of the orphanage and adopted her until now.
However, she didn't know if it was sufficient to repay the kindness of Shi Qi for bringing her up. If it was not enough, she would return the rest in the future.
Now that Shi Junye was going to return to the house in a few days, she was unwilling to go back. However, staying in the capital was not a long-term plan.
The man didn't have a mere inclination towards cleanliness, he was a clean freak who was completely obsessed with it! Who knew when he would chase her out of the house like an abandoned object.

There was no way she could even expect him to recycle rubbish.
At the thought of this, Shi Yuxuan smiled and looked up at the second floor. An idea suddenly popped up in her mind—
Oh, Li Beichen, if I expose your unhealthy obsession with cleanliness to the media, how much money can I get out of it?
Let's make a bold guess. If he had abstained from sex for 28 years and had never touched a woman due to this obsession and she were to expose such a big piece of news to the media… Clearing the 600,000 yuan she owed the Boundless Sea and Sky wouldn't be a problem for her.
The corners of Shi Yuxuan's lips curled up slightly. She lowered her gaze slowly, as if she was planning something.
With her high nose bridge and cherry red lips.
As she leaned against the sofa, she was lost in her thoughts for a while until the telephone beside the sofa rang urgently. Glancing sideways at her watch, she saw that it was five-thirty in the afternoon.
Initially, Yuxuan did not want to pick up the call, but on second thought, since she had nothing to do anyway, she picked up the call playfully.
"Hello, who is this? Are you looking for Mr. Li or Mrs. Li—"
Upon hearing Shi Yuxuan's voice, Mother Wu, who was on the other end of the phone, was slightly stunned. She was so shocked her eyes almost fell out of their sockets, but she quickly composed herself.
After all, she had personally seen Second Young Master Li carry his wife into the villa. Wasn't it obvious what he wanted to do? There would be times when young men would be tempted, even the cold and indifferent Second Young Master Li.
No matter what, he was still a man and Mother Wu understood that.

She did not know if it was the right time to make this call. What if she had called when the two of them were about to engage in the act? Didn't that mean Second Master would be stopped because of her phone call? She could not afford to cause him to fail and leave him in disappointment.
To dampen Second Master's mood was equivalent to ruining her job.
There was no sound from the other end of the phone. Yuxuan spoke again, but she had accidentally pulled the landline off the table.
With a loud bang, it smashed onto the luxurious floor. Caught off guard, Yuxuan let out an 'ah' subconsciously.
On the other end of the phone, Mother Wu's expression changed.
Indeed, they hadn't finished yet?
A little of it would be good but too much wouldn't be too good for one's health.
Madam, don't torture Second Master too much.
