Chapter 393: Just an accomplice
Xu Fangye glanced at Han Xi, whose expression was slightly tense, and said with a meaningful twitch of his lips, "I know. Don't worry, Grandpa, I will definitely take good care of the guest and not let him wander around."
Uncle Hao nodded and turned to go back to the backyard.
-
Whether Xu Fangye was genuinely obedient or doing it on purpose, he actually led Han Xi to the small building next to the main building.
"Mr. Han, I'm sorry to trouble you to stay here tonight."
The rooms in the Xu family's old house are cleaned by servants every day. When you open the door, the room is spotless. The modern Chinese style of decoration makes the room feel grand and peaceful.
Han Xi glanced at her briefly before looking at Fang Li beside him.
Xu Fangye raised an eyebrow and immediately stepped to the side, blocking the two of them: "Alright, it's getting late, let's get some rest. Guobao should also go back and rest early."
After saying that, he didn't give the two of them a chance to speak again, and directly put his arm around Fang Li and walked out.
Before leaving, she thoughtfully closed the door for Han Xi.
Once inside the main building, Fang Li finally shook off Xu Fangye's hand.
The two rooms were separated by a corridor. Standing at the top of the stairs, Fang Li looked at Xu Fangye with a cold face.
"There's something you should explain to me."
Xu Fangye curled his lips: "What?"
Fang Li frowned: "You're still pretending! You told me the company was having cash flow problems and led me to find someone to arrange a marriage for you. Don't you have an explanation for that?"
Xu Fangye's expression froze. "You knew everything?"
"So, everything Han Xi said is true? This was all a charade orchestrated by the two of you? The Xu family didn't face any crisis, and Grandpa's things, including your beloved cars, are still there. Was everything before just a lie?"
Seeing his younger sister suddenly become so agitated, Xu Fangye couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
"Don't be angry. I'm only doing this for your own good. Look at you and Han Xi, you're now a couple in love. I've also brought about this marriage by some twist of fate."
Seeing his sister's face growing increasingly grim, Xu Fangye quickly said, "Besides, I wasn't the mastermind behind this. Han Xi approached me first. I was just cooperating with him. Yes, I was just an accomplice."
"Who do you think you are?!"
“Uh, I…”
"Go away, go away! Tomorrow I'll tell Grandpa that you tricked me into marrying Han Xi!"
Xu Fangye panicked, "No! I really didn't plan this, how can you blame me for everything! Sister, sister...!"
Ignoring Xu Fangye's anxious pounding behind her, Fang Li went straight into her room without looking back.
Once the door was closed, Fang Li leaned against it, revealing a smug glint in her eyes.
You're adding fuel to the fire and gloating; if we're not having a good time, you shouldn't be either!

The night in the mountains was so dark and quiet that not a sound could be heard.
At midnight, Fang Li tossed and turned in bed for two hours before finally drifting off to sleep.
Meanwhile, in the small building next to the main building, someone was wide awake.
Han Xi leaned against the carved wooden bed in the guest room, idly tapping his phone screen with his fingertips.
Thinking about what he had confessed today, he was somewhat worried about Fang Li's thoughts and feelings.
He wanted to call Fang Li but was afraid she was angry or that he might bother her. After thinking it over, he finally sent her a short message.
"Sleep?"
Three minutes after the message was sent, Fang Li had not replied.
He frowned, holding his phone and thinking about how to meet Fang Li, when he suddenly heard the roar of a car engine outside the window.
Han Xi got up and drew back the curtains, just in time to see Xu Fangye's black SUV rushing out of the gate, its taillights drawing two scarlet arcs in the night.
Once the car had completely disappeared into the night, Han Xi's eyebrows twitched slightly, and after a moment's thought, he turned around and turned off the lights.
---
Fang Li's room.
A faint jasmine scent filled the room, and moonlight streamed through the sheer curtains onto the bed.
In the dim light, the doorknob suddenly turned slightly, and a figure quickly slipped in, slightly turning to the side.
Fang Li was fast asleep when she dreamed that she saw her parents whom she hadn't seen in a long time. They found out about her and Han Xi and were both very angry. They insisted on dragging her to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce.
Fang Li lay on her side, her legs slightly curled up, her brows furrowed with unease as she murmured softly.
Suddenly, an undeniable pressure descended from above.
Fang Li seemed to sense something in her sleep and suddenly opened her eyes. Immediately afterward, a large hand quickly covered her mouth.
"Don't make a sound, it's me."
A deep voice sounded in my ear. The man was still covered in moisture, probably having just taken a shower before coming. His bangs were still damp.
The terror deep in Fang Li's pupils slowly turned into shock and worry after she saw the man's face clearly.
She quickly glanced at the tightly closed door, her eyes questioning him: Why are you here?
Didn't her brother notice?
Han Xi lay half-lying on Fang Li, feeling her warm breath gently dancing in his palm, his deep brows furrowing slightly.
"Your brother went out."
Upon hearing this, Fang Li's tense body relaxed slightly.
Han Xi still didn't let go of her, and asked in a low voice, "I heard that Mrs. Han is pregnant?"
Fang Li's eyelashes fluttered, and the temperature at the base of her ears slowly rose. Through his palm, she said in a soft voice, "I was just lying to Grandpa. I acted on impulse. I was afraid he would insist on making us divorce, so I..."
A fleeting, inscrutable emotion crossed Han Xi's eyes as he stared intently at the woman beneath him, his voice hoarse, "It's alright, we can still start now."
"What did you say?"
"I'll tell you," Han Xi leaned down slightly and whispered in Fang Li's ear, his voice hoarse and tender, "so that we won't be separated, it's not too late to get pregnant now."
"......"
Before Fang Li could react, the man looked up slightly, loosened his hand covering her mouth, and her mouth was immediately replaced by another sensation.
Fang Li's surprised lips parted slightly, giving the man the perfect opportunity to take advantage of her vulnerability.
Two warm lips met, and although they had been together just last night, it felt like they had been separated for a long time. The passion gradually deepened and eventually became irreversible.
Perhaps because she was in her own home, in the room she had lived in since childhood, Fang Li felt a strange mix of nervousness and excitement.
Her body was tense as she felt the man's passion.
"Slow down, be careful not to be overheard..."
Han Xi's voice was hoarse to the extreme, filled with intense desire, as he breathed heavily: "...I miss you."
Fang Li was taken aback.
Then her hands slid up to his shoulders, and the kiss gradually changed from entanglement to fierce biting.
The fingers clinging to the back of Han Xi's neck tightened involuntarily, the nails almost digging into his muscles through his shirt.
After confirming that Fang Li was not pregnant, Han Xi finally felt relieved and lay down on her, pressing her firmly into the bed. Their bodies intertwined, and they felt the rise and fall of each other's chests.
