Chapter 2436: Chapter 2436

Duan Xi was already taking out the key to open the door. Upon hearing her, he looked down at her with a slightly dangerous gaze: "Not?"

Jiaojiao felt that claiming "not" at this moment would definitely not lead to a good outcome, so she continuously nodded her head: "Yes, yes, yes, I am your wife!"

Only then did Duan Xi retract his gaze.

Then he opened the door, closed it, entered the room, put her on the bed, and pressed down, all in one go.

The entire process didn’t even give Jiaojiao a chance to react. By the time her mind cleared again, it was already evening.

Lazily leaning against him, Jiaojiao felt a bit sleepy but didn’t want to sleep. The little irritation from Luo Ying earlier had already completely dissipated.

She also knew that being upset with Duan Xi over this kind of related matter wasn’t a healthy thing. In fact, Duan Xi was already handling things quite well.

Since childhood, aside from her, he didn’t get close to any other females, including Yu Rou and Yang Tao. Even when hanging out together, the words exchanged were very few.

Luo Ying obviously had ulterior motives last time. After Duan Xi discovered it, he immediately canceled the contract they were about to sign, just like with Dan Chun previously. The way he keeps his distance is indeed impeccable.

"Brother Xi, if something similar happens next time, just let it be." After thinking for a long time, Jiaojiao said.

"Hm?" Duan Xi looked down at her.

Jiaojiao also lowered her gaze: "Whether it’s Dan Chun or Luo Ying, these things are just treating the symptoms but not the cause. Our journey is still long, and your company will only grow larger. There will be more people we need to collaborate with; we can’t always act like this as it’s not good for the development of your company."

"Truly heartfelt?"

"Hm!" Jiaojiao nodded.

But the next second, her chin was lifted up by him. Duan Xi looked at her lowered eyes, presenting an awkward look of trying to be considerate and understanding, and laughed.

Laughing so heartily that his chest cavity shook along with it.

Jiaojiao glanced at him, seeing him laugh, her hair instantly stood on end, pushing away his hand that constrained her chin. She supported herself with a hand on the bed plank below to get up but was pulled into his embrace by Duan Xi.

He lowered his head, came close to her, pamperingly using an incredibly gentle tone: "Little liar!"

Jiaojiao pursed her lips, she was just fooling herself, so what!

She wanted a virtuous reputation yet also wanted to keep everyone coveting him out.

"Then you tell me, do you want to listen to me or not?" Jiaojiao.

This question indeed was difficult to answer; saying no means not listening to his wife, but saying yes would make Jiaojiao definitely uncomfortable inside.

Duan Xi apparently understood this was a tricky question too; he extended his arm to pull her into an embrace and softly said: "Right now, the company is still small, many decisions need my personal attention. When encountering these situations, I can’t control them. But I only belong to you; I believe you are more aware of this than I am, aren’t you?"

Jiaojiao pursed her little lips. She was incredibly certain about this, she could even confirm that she was absolutely the most important one in his world.

"As for the future, in at most half a year, the company will have expanded. By then, I will delegate the authority, achieving a peaceful life. So, after this maximum half-year period, these kinds of things will never happen again."

This is also a world governed by laws; committing murder or wrongdoing is subject to legal penalties. Were it in his world, other creatures wouldn’t even get a chance to breathe in front of him, instantly becoming food on his plate.

The fact that she survived back then was indeed the only accident in this world.
