Chapter 226

Noting Xu Hao's gaze, he quickly lowered his head again and spoke with grief and indignation.

"Do a good job. Your performance today was not bad. As long as you handle things well, I will also fulfill my promise."

Xu Hao patted him on the shoulder and turned to walk into the hotel.

Yao Xinrui had already booked a room, and they got into the elevator together.

Watching the backs of the two as they left, Li Xiao stood frozen in place, unable to snap out of it for a long time…

How similar was this scene?

Last time, Xu Hao had also brought the beautiful landlady to open a room just like this.

This time, he brought the sister-in-law.

What was the same was——

Both times, he knew what Xu Hao was going to do, yet he was powerless to stop it.

He was a transmigrator after all, carrying a condescending sense of superiority.

Yet he was bullied to this extent by a native.

Li Xiao only felt a sweetness in his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood…

The room Yao Xinrui booked was a Presidential Suite.

As soon as they stepped inside, a huge crystal chandelier came into view.

This was the living room, and there was a bedroom beside it, decorated extremely luxuriously.

Yao Xinrui hesitated at the doorway, struggling over whether to go in.

Xu Hao looked back and glanced at her.

"Sister-in-law, what are you standing there in a daze for? Come on in and rock out…"

Yao Xinrui knew that she couldn't escape this no matter what today,

so she clenched her teeth, hardened her heart, and stepped inside.

She hoped Xu Hao would finish quickly.

Unfortunately… she was destined to be disappointed.

Fast?

There was no such word in Xu Hao's dictionary.

He came to the wine cabinet and chose a bottle of Romanée-Conti.

He opened it, took out two goblet glasses, and filled them respectively.

After pouring, Xu Hao handed a glass to Yao Xinrui, while he himself sat on the soft leather sofa and sipped his drink slowly.

Yao Xinrui picked up the wine glass in a daze.

"Cheers…"

Xu Hao raised his glass, clinked it against hers, and took a sip by himself.

Then, he looked at Yao Xinrui with great interest.

"Sister-in-law, can you sing?"

Yao Xinrui snapped back to her senses, somewhat bewildered by Xu Hao's words.

"I've already made up my mind and prepared to face the raging storm, and you're telling me this?"

Although confused, she still nodded…

After entering society, ever since her arranged marriage with Chu Xiong, she had never sung with her little girlfriends again.

But her singing foundation from her university days was still there.

"Sister-in-law can sing? That couldn't be better. Sing me a song first…"

Xu Hao was not in a hurry to swallow her up in one bite.

Yao Xinrui could no longer escape the palm of his hand.

It was still early; delicious food needed to be savored slowly.

Wanting her to sing?

Yao Xinrui was puzzled. What kind of trick was this Xu Hao playing?

She was all ready, and yet nothing happened?

This was a hotel, not a KTV.

Yao Xinrui grew somewhat impatient.

"This isn't a KTV… How am I supposed to sing? There isn't even a microphone…"

"Who says there isn't?"

Xu Hao spoke in a confident and solemn tone.

Yao Xinrui's face was filled with blank bewilderment.

At the same time, she came to her senses, feeling a sense of utter exasperation.

Where would a hotel have a microphone?

I've read plenty of books, yet you're tricking me like this.

There was no other way; it was Xu Hao's demand, and she had to comply.

"Conquered by you just like this…"

This was a solo performance.

Xu Hao closed his eyes and listened quietly.

The song finished.

Yao Xinrui rolled her eyes, truly wondering why Xu Hao liked listening to this song.

Xu Hao patted her on the shoulder.

"You sang so well the first time; you're very talented. I hope you sing even better next time."

Hehe…

Yao Xinrui sneered inwardly.

He still wanted a next time?

Afterwards, she couldn't help feeling a bit worried.

The five-day pact was agreed upon, and today was only the first day.

Surely Xu Hao wouldn't want her to sing every single time from now on, would he?

Yao Xinrui couldn't help but shiver.

At this moment, Xu Hao had already put down his wine glass and turned the key.

Attention, veteran driver.

The Mount Akina racing god is getting ready to speed…

[Ding… Yao Xinrui is apprehensive, Emotion Points +321…]

[Ding… Yao Xinrui is extremely shocked, Emotion Points +654…]

[Ding… Yao Xinrui's heart is surging, Emotion Points +987…]

Spring thunder exploded in the hotel, a song of slanted wind and fine rain knowing bashfulness.

Outside——

Li Xiao stood on the street in a daze.

He didn't listen to Xu Hao's words to leave.

With a cigarette hanging from his mouth, he took big puffs, one after another.

Trying to numb himself with this…

But it was all in vain.

Deep down, he kept blaming himself for his weak strength, unable to protect his family and the woman he liked.

Thinking of how his sister-in-law was being posed in various postures by Xu Hao at this moment, his heart ached so much he couldn't breathe.

Ring-ring-ring… Ring-ring-ring… Ring-ring-ring…

The familiar phone ringtone rang out once more.

Li Xiao irritably picked it up to look, seeing that it was a call from his big brother Chu Xiong.

A jolt instantly perked up his Spirit quite a bit.

He thought of how Xu Hao told him to provide cover and not let his big brother find out.

Li Xiao felt a surge of Qi just thinking about it.
