Chapter 130: Chapter 130 Power Outage

Su Zixi really wanted to get out of the car herself, but when she met the man’s deep eyes, her heart trembled, and eventually, she weakly handed her hand over to him.

He Jingyao took her soft, boneless hand, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

In the mansion, dinner had already been prepared. After a simple wash, the two went to the dining room.

Over the past few days, Su Zixi had already been captivated by the mansion’s chef, and after eating to her satisfaction, her underlying worries immediately surfaced.

He Jingyao had brought her back early tonight, it couldn’t be that he was up to no good, could it?

She looked at the man opposite her, who was still elegantly eating, and propping her chin with her right hand, she couldn’t help but zone out.

He Jingyao suddenly put down his knife and fork, his voice slightly husky, “Zhixi, if you keep staring at me, I’m going to eat you.”

Su Zixi blushed, quickly putting her hand down and sitting upright, “I, I have a lot of tasks tonight. So, I’m going to go back to my room and work on the planning.”

Between the lines, don’t bother her for no reason. And don’t find any excuse to tease her.

“Okay,” He Jingyao nodded seriously, “Focus on your work, and don’t stay up late.”

Huh? He’s being so reasonable?

Su Zixi was puzzled, sneakily glanced at him, only to be caught by him. The man raised his eyebrow slightly, “Or do you need my help?”

“No need, no need!” Su Zixi quickly waved her hands, “I can complete it myself! You should rest early too!”

After saying that, Su Zixi hurriedly slipped out of the dining room.

He Jingyao held a water cup in his hand, watching her retreating figure, and chuckled softly after a moment.

…

After returning to her room, the first thing Su Zixi did was to lock the door tightly.

Then, she sat at the desk, opened her laptop, downloaded the planning outline she had completed in the office from her email, and browsed through it once.

Focus on work, work… Never think about someone’s beauty.

Once immersed, time flew by quickly, and by the time she finished the first part and stretched lazily, it was already nine-thirty.

She hurriedly saved the document, shut down the computer, and then took her pajamas to the bathroom.

She couldn’t help but wonder what He Jingyao was doing now as she turned on the shower.

Speaking of which, when she agreed to register to marry him, she had never set a date for the end of their marriage with him… Perhaps, it would never end?

Could there be a day when she and He Jingyao could be like Xuefei and her senior, and be a truly loving couple?

At that thought, her cheeks suddenly became burning hot.

She hurriedly slapped her cheeks forcefully, but while doing so, the bathroom suddenly went dark!

A power outage?

Su Zixi was momentarily stunned, surrounded by pure darkness, so pitch-black that she couldn’t see her hand in front of her, with only the clear sound of running water and her increasingly rapid heartbeat filling her ears.

The shower was still spraying water; she hurriedly rinsed the shower gel off her body, groping to find a towel to wrap herself in.

She reached out to touch the bathroom door, but whether she was too anxious or there was something wrong with the door, she couldn’t open it after several tries. The darkness was already frightening, and this made her even more panicked, nearly starting to cry!

All the ghost stories she had heard since she was a child and the horror movies she had seen suddenly flooded her mind at this moment, making her skin crawl and her scalp tingle, as if a pale hand was about to land on her shoulder…
