The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex

Early in the morning, the first rays of dawn broke into an elegant master bedroom.

A young couple lay on a cream-colored European leather bed. They slept side by side and breathed evenly. The light down blanket was twisted in odd angles and a corner of the bedsheets had fallen onto the floor. Clothes were scattered in front of the bed, and there were both men’s and women’s clothing.

It was obvious from the scene what kind of intimacy had occurred in this room the night before.

Xia Yuwei stuck out her fair arms and narrow shoulders from the blanket and she was not wearing a stitch of clothing.

She yawned twice, then curled her feet up and lay in the man’s arms like a small cat, her face against his sturdy chest.

The man was awakened by her sudden movement.

He frowned, then sat up to glance at the European-styled clock on the wall. It showed that the time was 7:20 AM. He then looked toward the window and saw the morning light spilling in.

He rubbed at his slightly tired eyes then pulled the blanket off him and was just about to leave the bed to get ready for a new day of work when a pair of arms suddenly circled around his waist the moment he turned.

Xia Yuwei hugged him tightly and rested her pointy chin against his shoulder.

“Yixuan, why don’t you sleep a little longer? It is still early.” She said sweetly. Then her hand brazenly dipped lower as she tried to stir up his masculine instincts to continue their intimate acts from the night before.

Although they have been married for such a long time and had been together for a year, the number of times they performed such acts were few and far between. Previously, they almost abstained from it altogether because she was pregnant and he was usually so busy that his focus was always on his work, so he did not have much interest in doing such things. She had taken pains to get back her pre-pregnancy figure and he seemed a little more interested in her now, so she would obviously try to use this opportunity to increase the frequency of their sexual activity.

Mo Yixuan frowned irritably, clearly put off by her seductive actions.

He pulled her hands off him, slipped his feet into his bedroom slippers and rose to his feet.

His gaze was as cold as ever when he turned to look at her.

“I have an important meeting to attend at 8:30 AM. If you’re tired, then you should rest.” He said brusquely, turned to look for his clothes and got dressed swiftly.

When she saw that he wasn’t going to satisfy her, Xia Yuwei scoffed coldly.

Meetings, meetings, and more meetings. Just how many meetings did he need to attend?

“Yixuan, today is Saturday and you agreed that you would take me shopping today.” Xia Yuwei said as she pouted her red lips and glared at him with a mix of annoyance and anger.

All she wanted was for him to take her out to play for a day. Was that so difficult?

“Yixuan, I refuse to let you leave for your meeting today.” Xia Yuwei suddenly jumped out of bed, disregarding her nakedness as she stood in front of him, her arms stretched out to stop him from leaving.

“Let someone else in your company attend the meeting on your behalf.” She said as she lifted her head to look at him, her face flushed red from anger.

The corners of Mo Yixyuan’s lips twitched in annoyance. He tied his tie and looked at her darkly. “Stop kicking up a fuss!”

He waved his hand and pushed her to the ground. Then, he strode out of the bedroom without any hesitation.

He could hear her wailing and screaming in the room but he continued to make his way out as though he did not hear them at all.

He was irritated and upset and thought that if only that woman was still around, she would definitely not be so unreasonable during such a time. As long as he had to attend a meeting during the weekend, she would even rise earlier than him to select his clothes for him and cook breakfast.
