Chapter 485 - Stirring Up Trouble - Part 1
Saturday
Having spent the morning and early afternoon in the office dealing with various matters, Hou Yi arrived back at their apartment just after 3pm. How he that today business had dragged him away from spending time with his wife. Simply thinking about her reminded him how she woke him with her kisses before they had spent a wonderful hour in bed before he had to drag himself away.
Even tonight they were going to be surrounded by people at the charity dinner and auction. At least there was a purpose for that interruption to their time together. He also had his fingers crossed that their actions would push Lu Jingho to extremes, and he would be arrested. That was something to hold on to. As he headed towards his study to place his briefcase there, he heard a splash from the pool.
Hou Yi, immediately knew where Anna was so he dropped his briefcase in the study before locking the door behind him. As Anna had not seen him, he slipped into a poolside change room, changing before diving to join her in the pool.
Anna had known when Hou Yi arrived poolside, and only when he was near did she turn and throw herself into his arms pulling his head down for a passionate kiss. As Anna pulled away all she could say was "Darling, when did you get home?"
"A few minutes ago."
"Well you better let me continue with the rehabilitation exercises or we will get nowhere tonight." With that Anna gently pushed him away "So go swim some laps before we have to think about getting ready for tonight."
Twenty minutes later having completed her exercises Anna gently stopped Hou Yi, who stood up. After leaning over for a kiss, she relaxed into his body before asking "Yi, can we just relax here for a while?"
What Hou Yi wanted to do was pick up where they had left off this morning, but he knew that they both needed to relax before what would be a busy night at the charity dinner and auction. However, if Anna wanted to relax in the pool together, he would be happy with that, but he would make up for it later. They both had to be ready to push Lu Jingho sufficiently that he would head to one of his illegal under-age brothels.
However, he knew that he ultimately could not resist a request like this from his wife, so he did the only thing he could do "Yes sweetheart but remember the Hair stylist will be here at 5pm to do your hair for tonight. We could however retire to our room before she arrives."
"Spoilsport. You need to get your mind simply away from bed," giggled Anna. However, she knew how important tonight was to finally bring down Lu Corporation and the money behind that b*stard that had made her life a misery for years.
Right on 5pm a hair stylist was shown into one of the spare bedrooms and waited for a few minutes before Anna, wrapped in a dressing gown cane wandered in, carrying her dress for the night. The dress was something that she had never seen before and it made her immediately re-think the hairstyle that she was going to do. It called for a simple style, decorated with something. That worried her as she had nothing to do that with.
However, before she could voice anything there was a knock on the door before it opened. Anna immediately realised who it was, even before she heard "Sweetheart."
"Yi, you are going to make us run late tonight if you interrupt me getting ready."
"I actually had a thought that the hair stylist might need a few things, so I brought a couple of options to match the dress."
Anna knew that Hou Yi was trying to be sweet and wondered what he had. As he came in Anna noticed in one hand were some flowers and in the other was a plain bag. That interested her more than the flowers. Once he sat the flowers on the bed, and gave her a brief kiss, he started to pull out three cases from the bag.
One contained a length of, what appeared to be Tahitian pearls interspaced with diamonds that could be woven into her hair, another contained a strand of white pearls, again interspaced with some diamonds, and the third was the most intriguing. At first glance it appeared to be a simple hair clip, but it was then when you noticed it was a miniature of the flower pattern that appeared on the dress coloured with gemstones including Diamonds, Rubies, Sapphires and Emeralds.
