Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 495: The Real Xuehan

Ye Fei had already informed his family that he wouldnʼt be coming back last night, so who could be calling him this early? He pulled out his phone and saw an unfamiliar number. He answered, ”Hello, who is this?”

”Guess who it is!” came a playful, beautiful voice from the other end.

”Did you come back? Why didnʼt you let me know in advance?”

Hearing this voice, Ye Fei felt genuinely happy. It belonged to his beloved aunt, Liu Junyi. Since she was in a playful mood, it meant she must have already returned to Wang Hai City. Otherwise, she wouldnʼt be this cheerful when she missed him so much. However, in front of Auntie Zhi, he didnʼt call her by name.

”You guessed everything. Thatʼs no fun!” Liu Junyi said with a hint of discontent. ”You little rascal, canʼt you pretend to be a bit more clueless?”

”Hehe, if I were more clueless, how would I be able to trick my beloved aunt in the future?” Ye Fei lowered his voice to avoid being overheard by Auntie Zhi. ”Where are you now? Are you heading to the military district or going home? Iʼll come find you right away!”

Hearing that Ye Fei was just as eager to see her as she was to see him, Liu Junyi felt extremely sweet inside. She laughed and said, ”I just got off the plane and am on my way home. You can just come straight to the house. Little rascal, if you get home before me, thereʼs a reward for you!”

”Okay, Iʼm on my way!” Ye Fei hung up the phone.

Seeing Auntie Zhi looking at him curiously, he said with a smile, ”You rest up. One of your good friends is back, and I need to go see her. Iʼll come back later.”

Auntie Zhi nodded and smiled faintly, ”Go ahead.” She understood perfectly well who Ye Fei was referring to by ”good friend,” but she didnʼt feel jealous at all.

She just watched the boyʼs hurried figure leave and thought quietly to herself, If it were me coming back from a trip, would he rush to see me like this?

”Brother, did you stay in this room last night?” In his haste to see his aunt, Ye Fei had forgotten to check the situation outside. As soon as he came out, he ran into the triplets who were playing in the hallway.

Although the situation was sudden, Ye Fei was no ordinary person. He could lie without batting an eyelid. He smiled and said, ”No, this is Auntie Zhiʼs room. You all drank a lot last night, so I wanted to come see how you were.”

He didnʼt say that he had stayed here, otherwise, if Auntie Zhi came out later, it would be even harder to explain.

The three innocent girls didnʼt suspect a thing and asked worriedly, ”Is Auntie Yue okay?”

”Sheʼs fine, just has a bit of a headache from drinking too much,” Ye Fei said with a smile.

”You three little girls were quite naughty last night, trying to drink alcohol.”

”We were just following our sisterʼs example!” the three girls said in unison, though their faces all turned a bit red.

”By the way, how is your sister?” Remembering Gu Xuehanʼs words from last night, Ye Fei knew it was time to give her a promise. Otherwise, he didnʼt know what she might think. If she did something rash, it would be troublesome.

After all, girls at her age could easily get stuck in their thoughts.

”She hasnʼt woken up yet. Does Brother want to go see her?” Gu Xuerong asked.

Ye Fei nodded and said, ”Yeah, Iʼll go check on her. You guys can keep playing here.”

”Then, Ye Fei, will you play with us after you see our sister?” Gu Xuemei asked hopefully.

”Ye Fei has some important things to do today, so letʼs play another time,” Ye Fei said. ”But now that your legs are better, you can have your sister take you to Ye Feiʼs house to play.”

Initially, the three girls felt a bit disappointed when they heard Ye Feiʼs first sentence, but they cheered up again when he promised they could visit his house with their sister. Gu Xuexin spoke for the three sisters, ”Okay, weʼll have our sister take us there when we have time. You go see our sister now.”

Ye Fei nodded, bid farewell to the three girls, and walked into the room they had stayed in last night.

Perhaps because she had drunk too much the night before, Gu Xuehan was still asleep when Ye Fei entered. Looking at her pretty face, which still had a hint of sorrow even in sleep, Ye Fei couldnʼt help but feel guilty.

He knew that with the family situation improving and the three younger sisters recovering from their illness, Gu Xuehan shouldnʼt have any more worries.

But she still looked so sad, and there was only one possible reason: it was because of him. It was his indecisiveness and reluctance to take a stand that made her unable to grasp her own feelings and led to this situation.

Reaching out, Ye Fei gently brushed away the slightly messy strands of hair from Gu Xuehanʼs forehead. He tenderly smoothed her slightly furrowed brows with his fingers and then placed his warm hand on her smooth cheek.

The warmth and comfort from Ye Feiʼs hand made Gu Xuehan instinctively nuzzle her cheek against it, making a soft, kitten-like sound. Then she suddenly realized something was wrong, opened her eyes wide, and sat up abruptly, pulling the blanket tightly around her chest.

When she saw that it was Ye Fei sitting by her bedside, Gu Xuehan let out a sigh of relief and instinctively released her grip on the blanket. But then she felt a chill on her chest and remembered that she had taken off her clothes in the middle of the night because she felt unwell.

She let out another cry of surprise, quickly pulled the blanket back up, and her face turned bright red.

Although it was just a fleeting glance, Ye Fei had sharp eyes and couldnʼt help but get a full view of Gu Xuehanʼs beautiful chest.

The two mounds, like inverted jade bowls, were so tempting that Ye Fei almost couldnʼt resist the urge to grab them and play with them right away.

According to his estimation, Gu Xuehanʼs pair was even bigger than Lin Lingʼs, and she seemed to have great potential to become a real bombshell.

”You... how did you come here?” Seeing that Ye Feiʼs gaze was still lingering on her chest even after she covered herself with the blanket, Gu Xuehan felt even more embarrassed. However, she still managed to put on the gentle demeanor she was used to in front of him and said, ”Could you step outside for a moment? Iʼll talk to you after I get up.”

”Xuehan, you donʼt have to keep pretending,” Ye Fei sighed.

”What?” Gu Xuehan was confused for a moment.

Ye Fei looked straight into Gu Xuehanʼs pretty face and said, ”I mean, you donʼt have to put on this act anymore. Because itʼs the real you that I like more.”

”The real me?” Gu Xuehanʼs expression changed slightly. She knew herself very well and was quite clear about what she was usually like. Would he really like that version of her?

Seeing the lack of confidence in Gu Xuehanʼs eyes, Ye Fei sighed inwardly and said sincerely, ”Yes, the real you. To be honest, ever since I first met you and saw your strength and kindness, Iʼve already started to like you.”
