C7 Fishing

Yi Zixi, who was in the bathroom, looked at herself in the mirror. There was no good spot on her body. Her eyes had been crying like a rabbit the night before.

She pulled at the sheet that was wrapped tightly around her. Her tears had dried the night before, and it was a miracle she had not thought she could survive beneath him.

He stared blankly at the woman in the mirror for who knows how long. When he finally lost all his strength, he held onto the wall and slowly walked under the shower to wash himself clean.

Over and over again, she knew that even if she washed away the aura he left on her, she would never be able to clean that damaged body again.

Finally she crouched in a corner and cried. This was not her life, so she closed her eyes and let the tears roll down her face.

It was only when he knocked on the door that he recovered from his grief.

"Miss, we'll leave the clothes at the door, so we'll be leaving first. Hurry up, don't make him wait too long because of Teacher's bad temper."

He was worried that she wouldn't be able to face them, so he stayed inside for a long time. This lady looked like a lady from a noble family, but she was still different from those ordinary girls. He then pulled the other girl and walked out.

After a while Yi Zixi wrapped herself in a towel and opened the door. She picked up the clothes they had left behind and put them on.

He waited until he had calmed down, then he opened the door and walked down the stairs step by step. When he was walking down the stairs, he accidentally took too many steps, and the space between his legs started to hurt.

The housekeeper originally wanted to go upstairs and call her, but when he raised his head, he saw that the slender figure had saved him the trouble of doing so.

However, her face did indeed look bad, and her brows were tightly knitted. She inadvertently overheard what Miss Yi had just said and could not help but step forward to ask, "Miss Yi, do you need a family doctor to come over for you to take a look?"

Yi Zixi shook her head. Right now, she no longer had any feelings in her body. All she wanted to do was to escape.

The housekeeper's gaze fell on her currently pale face and knew that she was different from the rest. Although there were some words that he wanted to say to her, after looking at the tall figure downstairs, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

It was the first time he had seen a man sitting there in the morning, waiting for someone.

When Yi Zixi walked up to the dining table, she involuntarily took a small step back. The butler could see the fear she had towards her husband, but he still urged her, "Miss Yi should go."

"If you feel wronged, you can just squash me to death." A trace of a mocking smile appeared on his handsome face. "Fair trade, have I forced you to do so from start to finish?"

Yi Zixi bit her lips and sat across from the man. She picked up the sandwich on the table and took a few bites.

That's right, those deals are things that you and I are willing to do. They would never do business with a loss, especially since they were worth two billion just from the start.

There was no point in being pretentious now. She knew that ever since she signed the agreement, she no longer held any place in his eyes.

At least, until the agreement was concluded, she would belong to him.

Yi Zixi felt sad for herself. Especially in the days to come when her body and spirit were being controlled by another man, she was afraid that her life would not be as easy as it used to be even after she escaped from the sea of suffering. Fortunately, she was always optimistic and knew how to comfort herself.

She suddenly thought back to yesterday's agreement that she had to work at the Empire Group.

"Can I go home tonight?" She lowered her head and asked cautiously, like a lowly maid beside him, "I have to go to work the next day. I have to finish all the work at hand before I can continue …"

"I'll have the servants wake you up in the morning."

He only lightly tapped on the table, a habitual gesture.

Yi Zixi frowned. She knew that he was addicted to cigarettes and knew where he kept his cigar. She turned around and walked to the wine cabinet. She took out a delicate wooden box from the lower drawer, took out a cigar and returned it to him with both hands.

Mu Shaofeng took it and also found that this girl had some good points. At least, in front of him, besides having a good memory, she had also remembered that Xiao Mo had taken a cigar here yesterday.

She looked up at him, the cigar in her rosy lips. "Don't you know how to light it?"

Yi Zixi went back to find the lighter and returned to him. She pressed it lightly with her slender fingers and a "pa" sound rang out. The flame lit up and he took a sip. It had to be said that the way he smoked was really cool. It was so enchanting that it could drive a person to their death. If those people who admired him saw this, they would definitely faint.

But what they didn't know was that a person with such a flawless appearance was so evil in his heart.

On the yacht, the man was still dressed in casual attire as he sat there quietly with his fishing rod in hand.

He was not a human or a devil, so it was better for her to stay far away from him. However, after seeing him sit there for more than an hour without catching a single fish, she rolled her eyes helplessly.

Everyone said he was impatient, but when she saw that he was doing this sort of thing, she felt that he was too bored to do it.

Yi Zixi took advantage of the moment when the man wasn't paying attention to her, stood up, and walked to the other side.

He looked back at Mu Shaofeng, who was still in his original position, and still quietly sat on the deck. Shouldn't Chairman of the Empire be busy every day, would he have the time to waste on such trivial things? She really couldn't understand what was going on.

"Come here." Before he could steady himself, his deep voice suddenly came from behind.

Yi Zixi was stunned. She originally wanted to reject him, but this man would definitely torture her for disobedience. She looked around to confirm that he was speaking to her before walking towards the man at a leisurely pace.

Before he could reach her, the man casually grabbed her small hand and fell into his embrace, light as a snowflake.

Lowering his eyes to look at the small face that had a trace of unease, he smiled, "You wish to throw yourself into my arms? You want to start here?"

Yi Zixi snorted lightly and ignored the man's nonsense as she struggled in his embrace.

This time, Mu Shaofeng didn't force her. He just put her beside him and handed the fishing rod over to her.

He didn't expect that the man would suddenly put the item into his hands. Fortunately, he caught it, otherwise, he would probably have to suffer for some unknown reason.

"This fishing rod costs a million yuan." A faint voice came out of Mu Shaofeng's mouth.

Yi Zixi turned her head to the side and glanced at him. The man's gaze fell onto the calm surface of the sea, not paying any attention to her.

Please pat your little heart to ease your previous uneasiness.

Yi Zixi was sitting there quietly. She hadn't come up for so long. That shouldn't be right. The fishing rod was just a rope. Where was the bait?

This was how a man fished for half a day. It was no wonder that none of them took the bait. She helplessly sighed …

He found the bait in the box and put it back in the sea.

Yi Zixi was thrilled. Her first time fishing had succeeded so quickly. She was so happy that she forgot where she was and waited for the buoy to move even faster.

Looking at the little fish caught on the hook, a hint of joy could not help but appear in his eyes. He said excitedly, "I've caught it."

When he saw Mu Shaofeng's cold eyes, the joy in his eyes immediately vanished.

She was so happy that she actually forgot who the person sitting next to her was. She shouldn't have casually displayed her expression and quietly glanced at the man. She didn't know if he took her presumptuous actions just now to heart.

He really didn't know whether his actions were a provocation or not.

Mu Shaofeng glanced at her and then said in a low voice, "Xiao Mo."

Yi Zixi looked at him warily. Her initially slightly red face immediately became pale again. Her crying voice sounded, "Sir, I'm sorry, I won't."

Mu Shaofeng looked at her actions with lowered eyes. He was confused, "Afraid of him?"

As he suddenly approached, Yi Zixi's fragile heart started to panic. She originally wanted to shake her head, but in the end, she had no choice but to tell him the truth.

Every time his men came and went without a trace and there would always be trouble, would he be able to make himself feel at ease?
