Chapter 405: Chapter 405 Her Daughter (1)
If it weren’t for the fact that she was sound asleep at the mont, he would have almost suspected that this woman was trying to seduce him.
Or perhaps, because she had a fatal attraction to him, every move she made was nearly impossible for him to resist.
He Jingyao reached out to wipe the corner of her mouth, speaking softly, “Zhixi, I really have to go now.”
Su Zixi mumbled a vague “Hmm” in response.
He Jingyao chuckled, bending down to kiss her eyes and lips, “Sleep well, I’ll co to keep you company in a couple of days.”
After speaking, he tucked her in, adjusted the room’s heat to a more comfortable temperature, and then turned to leave.
Uncle Li was still standing in the living room with respectful obedience.
He Jingyao walked up to him, “Be ready to prepare hot als, Zhixi will be hungry when she wakes up.”
“Of course,” Uncle Li wasn’t at all surprised, “Young Master, are you heading back now?”
“Yes,” He Jingyao rubbed his temples, recalling the interrogation he would face from his father once he returned, and couldn’t help but click his tongue lightly, “Take good care of her, and call right away if anything cos up.”
“Rest assured,” Uncle Li said with a slight smile.
…
Su Zixi felt as if she had a dream that was both exhausting and protracted.
In the dream, soone whispered sothing in her ear, the voice deep and gentle, and there were kisses soft as feathers landing on her face.
She tried hard to open her eyes to see who was speaking to her, but unfortunately, she failed.
Later, all the sounds and light faded away, and Su Zixi finally fell completely into a sweet, dark slumber.

President Mansion.
As the First Lady, Chu Jinyu usually had a very busy schedule, often flying around to participate in activities or accompanying the President to receive foreign guests. She also needed to initiate and partake in all matters related to won, children, and education.
Over the years, her image of warmth, kindness, and generosity had ward its way into people’s hearts and had won the love of the populace.
A couple of days ago, Chu Jinyu had just finished an activity and was in the midst of a rare break. She spent the whole day in President Mansion, reading and enjoying afternoon tea.
So when her lady-in-waiting told her that the newly promoted young mistress of the Ning Family was paying a visit, Chu Jinyu was quite surprised.
Last month she had hosted a dinner at President Mansion, attended by relatives of all the important ministers, and Chu Jinyu had so recollection of this newly-erged young mistress of the Ning Family, so after her surprise, she nodded and told the lady-in-waiting, “Please let her in.”
After a series of strict security checks, Su Lianxi finally entered the grand gates of President Mansion and was led by the lady-in-waiting to the courtyard to et the First Lady.
This was her second visit to President Mansion, but she still couldn’t suppress her excitent, both for this place that represented supre power and for what she was about to do.
“Madam, good afternoon,” Su Lianxi curtseyed, her smile kind and generous, “I hope I’m not disturbing you.”
“Of course not, I was just feeling bored by myself,” Chu Jinyu responded with a smile, gesturing for her to co closer, “I’m on good terms with your mother-in-law, so there’s no need for formalities. You’re such a beautiful girl; Yichen is indeed lucky.”
Only then did Su Lianxi walk over with a smile, taking a seat opposite Chu Jinyu, her right hand, adorned with a ring, inadvertently placed on the table, “At the dinner last ti, I was so captivated by the Madam’s grace that I couldn’t forget it and hence took the liberty to disturb you.”
As she spoke, she displayed a well-tid hint of shyness.
Chu Jinyu smiled and was about to speak when her eyes accidentally swept over Su Lianxi’s right hand.
The next second, her face changed drastically!
