Chapter 772: Li Xiao Seduces Cai Xiaotang

Jiang Baobao walked very fast and vanished around the corner in an instant.

In her seat, Cai Xiaotang finally didn't have to hold it in anymore and directly punched Li Xiao!

"Who told you to suddenly come pick me up today? Why didn't you even give me a heads-up!"

Her face was slightly flushed.

Clearly, what the other person did was nothing more than the most ordinary thing, but for some reason, whenever he got close, she would always subconsciously blush and her heart would race.

"Hiss..."

Li Xiao clutched his chest, pretending to be in pain from her punch, and frowned slightly as he said "aggrievedly": "I actually wanted to call you in advance, but Miss Cai, I called several times and couldn't get through. You tell me... why is that?"

He deliberately acted as if he were very puzzled while looking at Cai Xiaotang, but a cunning smile flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Cai Xiaotang was stunned upon hearing this, pondered for two seconds, and then suddenly realized something!

Damn it!

Li Xiao's number was still in her blacklist!

She had forgotten about this!

While thinking this, she glanced at her phone with some embarrassment and laughed dryly: "Hehe... well... maybe the signal was bad..."

"Is that so?"

Li Xiao raised an eyebrow, and in the time it took to say two words, he had already swiftly picked up her phone and pointed the screen directly at her face!

"Whoosh!"

The screen unlocked automatically.

"Hey, you!"

Cai Xiaotang hadn't reacted at all and subconsciously went to grab the phone, but it was already too late.

Li Xiao opened the contact list decisively, and sure enough, he saw his own number clearly marked.

"Tsk... blacklist?"

He shook the phone at Cai Xiaotang.

"Cough..."

Cai Xiaotang gave a light cough and shifted her gaze away, feeling slightly embarrassed.

Yet she also felt she should be righteous and confident.

It wasn't her fault; it was because a certain guy made her angry that she threw him into the blacklist!

Right!

This matter wasn't her fault!

She quickly adjusted her mood and suddenly stood up to snatch the phone back!

"You're asking why I threw you into the blacklist?"

Cai Xiaotang threw the question back at him, and as she spoke, she had already "released" him.

Li Xiao, however, pressed on relentlessly: "It's my fault, but even so, you should give me a chance to explain, shouldn't you? To throw me into the blacklist like this without even giving me a chance to speak, don't you think you should compensate me?"

"You!"

Cai Xiaotang was almost laughed to anger by the other party's sophistry.

"Is there anyone in this world with a thicker skin than you?" she muttered speechlessly.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiao truly took the phrase "thick-skinned" to the extreme and immediately replied: "If my skin weren't thick, how could I pursue you? After all, there are so many people who like you..."

"Yes, but among these people, you are the most special one!"

Cai Xiaotang glared at him.

Li Xiao, however, looked delighted and hurriedly asked: "How am I special?"

Cai Xiaotang gritted her teeth and said word by word: "Es-pe-cial-ly sham-eless!"

Just as her voice fell, she saw Jiang Baobao's figure walking back from afar.

Instantly adjusting her expression, Cai Xiaotang hurriedly whispered: "I'm warning you! Just eat your meal normally! I'm not a kindergartner! I don't need you to look after me!"

The meal was finally finished "without incident."

After dinner, Jiang Baobao had originally planned to go for a walk with Cai Xiaotang, but by now she had long since abandoned the idea and intended to slip away immediately.

Taking advantage of the time while Li Xiao went to pull the car out, Jiang Baobao leaned close to Cai Xiaotang's ear and whispered.

"Xiao Tang, there's something I didn't tell you today..."

"Hm? What is it?"

Cai Xiaotang thought she had some secret, so she also replied in a low voice.

Only then did she hear Jiang Baobao say somewhat sweetly: "Didn't I tell you last time that I might be pregnant... Do you have time this weekend to accompany me to the Hospital for a detailed check-up? I want to confirm it..."

"Of course I do!"

Cai Xiaotang looked pleasantly surprised and agreed without hesitation.

The two agreed to stay in touch over the weekend, and Li Xiao's car pulled out.

Jiang Baobao said goodbye to Cai Xiaotang and got into her own car.

Cai Xiaotang watched her drive away, then also planned to head home.

But the moment she got into the car, she heard the person beside her ask—"Going back to the Old Residence tonight?"

Cai Xiaotang paused in the middle of fastening her seatbelt.

Last night, they had stayed at that apartment in the city center...

Cai Xiaotang thought for a moment, then tentatively asked: "Now that Baobao and the others are back, we can go visit the old man often, so we shouldn't have to keep living at the Old Residence, right?"

At least temporarily escape the situation of sleeping in the same bed as a certain someone!

Otherwise, there would always be no end to him "taking advantage" of her!

Li Xiao naturally saw through her thoughts at a glance, but he did not refuse; after deliberating for two seconds, he replied, "Of course you can, but we must first confirm Li Laoyezi's physical condition before mentioning this matter to him. At the very least, we must go back tonight. What do you think?"

In the past, he definitely would have just domineeringly taken her back!

But now...

Naturally, his wife's mood is the most important thing!

The two of them went straight back to the Old Residence.

Li Laoyezi happened to not be asleep yet, and as soon as he saw Cai Xiaotang, he asked a couple of concerned questions about the situation at her home.

Cai Xiaotang felt even more embarrassed to bring up moving out for the time being, so she had no choice but to suppress all her words.

The two of them chatted with Li Laoyezi for a while before returning upstairs.

Standing in the familiar room, Cai Xiaotang took a deep breath.

Back again...

She had previously thought that she would never see this room again in her life...

With a complicated mood, she took out her pajamas, intending to hurry up and shower to go to sleep.

She didn't expect that as soon as she came out of the bathroom—she saw someone leaning against the bedside "disheveled," his hair also looking a bit damp, as if he had showered in another bathroom.

Cai Xiaotang's footsteps paused, her gaze quickly sweeping over that person's abdominal muscles, and her face heated up uncontrollably.

Li Xiao, however, looked leisurely and contented; seeing her standing there motionless, he smiled and patted the bed beside him.

"What are you standing there for? Aren't you cold? Come to sleep."

His voice was low and deep, carrying an inexplicable allure.

Cai Xiaotang couldn't help but shiver all over, and some images suddenly and inappropriately popped into her mind.

The image of a beautiful woman waving a handkerchief on a brightly lit carved pavilion, shouting to the people downstairs, "Guest, come on up and have some fun~," was exactly the same as that person's tone just now!

Cai Xiaotang clenched her fists slightly, deliberately keeping a straight face, and inched toward the bedside step by step.

Just as she got close—her wrist was grabbed by Li Xiao, who had suddenly risen, and she was pulled directly onto the bed!

"Ah! What are you doing!"

Cai Xiaotang was startled, and before she could react, she was already wrapped in a warm quilt and plunged into a warm embrace.

"Sleeping, what else would I be doing."

Li Xiao held her as a matter of course, his warm breath landing against her ear.

Immediately afterward, he saw Cai Xiaotang's ears turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He curled his lips, unable to resist leaning in closer, and asked deliberately, "Or... do you want to do something else?"
