"What a scumbag," Wu Jia muttered.
Guo Xuyang paid no attention to Wu Jia.
Pretending not to hear, he climbed into bed and slept.
Li Minyu did not go out, having not seen Guo Xuyang all day.
She even had the hotel deliver her meals to her room.
It didn't matter where she stayed; she was afraid her father would discover she had returned home.
If her father were to find out that Guo Xuyang was the father of her unborn child, it would undoubtedly cause immense trouble.
She didn't want her parents to be gossiped about, so she had to keep it from him for now and wait until the child was born.
If all else failed, she would emigrate.
By then, her parents might be retired.
A change of environment might be for the best.
Even if her father couldn't emigrate due to his position, he could settle somewhere in the provincial capital.
She really couldn't understand what was so great about Guo Xuyang.
She couldn't escape his grasp, no matter how much she tried.
Li Minyu remembered the first time she met Guo Xuyang.
If it hadn't been for Guo Xuyang that time, she would have been discovered and taken away.
Human connection is truly wondrous; she never expected to end up having his child.
And Xiao Yu's sister was also Guo Xuyang's woman.
She truly didn't know what kind of magic he possessed that made so many women devoted to him.
She lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Xie Lisha also couldn't sleep. The previous day's ferocity had made her realize the man's power.
Although her body had healed, her memories were not lost.
There had been many more absurd scenes in the past, but none had left as deep an impression as Guo Xuyang's ferocity.
She didn't get out of bed all day.
It wasn't that she didn't want to get down, but she physically couldn't.
She also had the hotel deliver food to her door, but in the end, she didn't eat, starving herself for the entire day.
She was now even somewhat obsessed with Guo Xuyang, even wanting to call out to him.
But in the end, she forcefully restrained herself.
She certainly didn't want to be unable to get out of bed the next day and starve for another day.
This Guo Xuyang was like a drug, addictive and irresistible.
Recalling what she had said yesterday, she realized that Guo Xuyang was not as harmless as he appeared when he first came to investigate.
He had coldness and brutality in his bones.
He showed no mercy to his enemies.
She couldn't help but think again of what she had seen in that storage space.
The piles of gold and diamonds, and the few alien creatures, were all his trump cards.
She really didn't know where he got all that gold and diamonds.
Of course, his net worth far exceeded that of the gold and diamonds.
Xie Lisha slept and woke, her mind filled with Guo Xuyang's image.
She knew she had fallen into a vicious cycle and couldn't climb out.
Guo Xuyang was unaware of all this.
The hard work of the past few days made him snore loudly, which woke Li Minxi.
"How long has Yangzi been back?" Li Minxi asked, rubbing her eyes.
"For a while, Sister Xiao Xi. Did I wake you?" Wu Jia replied.
"Yes. His snoring is deafening, no different from thunder."
"Should I have him sleep in another room?"
"Forget it. Look how soundly he's sleeping; he must be exhausted these past few days."
"You really care about him. Sister Xiao Xi, we were just talking about the name for Xiao Bao. Yangzi said he wants to decide after discussing it with Auntie and Uncle."
"That's only right. Did he say which one he liked?"
"No. He said all those names are good."
"Sly. Then we'll wait until Mom and Dad hear about it."
"Sister Xiao Xi, you should sleep a bit more. It's only just past midnight."
"I'm not sleeping anymore. I'm a bit hungry. Can you see if there's anything left to eat in the dining room? Please bring some up for me."
"There are a few pieces of cooked lamb and beef left. How about I heat them up for you?"
"Alright. Heat them up for me."
"Then wait a moment, I'll go right now."
Wu Jia said, standing up and turning to go downstairs.
