Hu Ke’s body was still tainted with the scent of calming incense. The sandalwood fragrance mixed with the fragrance of flowers and plants slowly calmed Bai Xiao’s anxious heart.

Bai Xiao raised his eyebrows. This woman actually changed her perfume to seduce him? He remembered that this was not the smell he smelled previously.

“What exactly do you want? Are you still dissatisfied that you’re already pregnant and Mrs. Bai? Or are you so thirsty that you want to seduce me in the same way?”

Bai Xiao restrained Hu Ke’s movements tightly. He liked the smell on Hu Ke’s body very much and even did not want to let her go.

Hu Ke was like a little white rabbit caught in a wolf’s mouth. Bai Xiao’s words reminded her of the pain she had suffered that night. She did not want to experience it a second time.

Moreover, the first three months of her pregnancy was a critical period. She did not want anything to happen to the child in her stomach because of this.

“Why are you struggling? Don’t you think so?” Bai Xiao looked down at the struggling Hu Ke playfully.

Seeing that she was powerless to resist, it became a stark contrast to her sinister and cunning heart, stirring up Bai Xiao’s strange joy.

Hu Ke felt that Bai Xiao, who was smiling sinisterly, looked like a pervert. It was not like he did not know that she could not speak, but he still liked to torture her in this way for fun.

The incense tower on the dining table was still burning, and the smell of incense filled the air around them.

Although Bai Xiao was still holding onto Hu Ke, the strength in his hand gradually decreased.

Hu Ke found an opportunity and pushed Bai Xiao away. She looked at Bai Xiao with a cold face.

Bai Xiao was pushed to the sofa by her. He felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and his thoughts were getting more and more out of control.

He looked at Hu Ke and suddenly wondered if this woman had drugged him.

“What… did you do to me…” Before Bai Xiao could finish speaking, he fell asleep. The last thing he saw before his consciousness disappeared was Hu Ke smiling smugly at him.

Damn it, he had fallen into this woman’s trap again!

Hu Ke waited for Bai Xiao to fall asleep before sighing.

Bai Xiao’s pressure was really strong. His lower abdomen was still throbbing a little. Hu Ke touched her stomach comfortingly, trying to calm the baby down.

She closed the window for Bai Xiao and hesitated for a moment before waking Bian Fang up. She asked her to find a blanket for Bai Xiao to prevent him from catching a cold.

Before going upstairs, Hu Ke took a look at the burning situation of the incense tower. After making sure that it could burn before Bai Xiao woke up, she went upstairs to sleep.

“Isn’t he awake yet?”

“Keep your voice down. Let the young master sleep a little longer.”

Bai Xiao was woken up by rustling. It had been a long time since he had slept so peacefully. Now that he woke up, he felt his entire body relax.

Bai Xiao yawned and sat up. He looked at the clock hanging on the wall with sleepy eyes.

After midnight, he slept peacefully for almost nine hours.

Bai Xiao’s chaotic mind gradually cleared up. He looked at the incense plate and a pile of ashes on the living room table and recalled the last look Hu Ke had given him yesterday.

Bai Xiao’s first reaction was to look at the clothes he was wearing.

Very good. There were no signs of him being touched.

After confirming that he was fine, Bai Xiao sat on the sofa and fell into deep thought as he looked at the ashes on the incense plate.

The sudden drowsiness yesterday was because of the fragrance that Hu Ke gave him? Was it this?

Seeing that Bai Xiao was awake, Bian Fang instructed the kitchen to make some food.

Bai Xiao returned to his room to wash up. When he passed by Hu Ke’s room, he stopped in his tracks and continued walking to his room.

If it was really because of the incense, could he ask Hu Ke for more? Or buy some? He really yearned for a good night’s sleep like yesterday.

Sitting at the dining table, Bai Xiao realized that Hu Ke was not around. He asked Bian Fang, “Where’s Hu Ke?”

Bian Fang was a bit surprised that her young master would ask about Hu Ke’s whereabouts. After spending some time together, Bian Fang realized that these two were just faking a seemingly harmonious relationship, especially Bai Xiao, who didn’t like Hu Ke at all. Now that he took the initiative to ask about Hu Ke’s whereabouts, it was even more strange.
