The Billionaire's Priceless Darling: 33 Days of the CEO's Pursuit - Chapter 134 - The Price of Being a Mistress 2

“Beep-beep-beep-”

The monotonous ringtone of a phone suddenly broke the silence of the night. Gu Xiaoai flinched, her hands, which had been pressing the pillow down with all her might, instantly loosened. Cold sweat began to bead on her forehead.

What was she doing?

Was she… committing murder?!

Had being with Li Juefeng for so long driven her to madness? Was she losing her mind just like him?

“Beep-beep-beep-”

The phone kept ringing persistently.

A large hand suddenly shoved the pillow off the bed. Li Juefeng sat up from the warmth of the bed, his bare chest exposed, his sharp black eyes fixed on her with a predatory intensity, devoid of any trace of sleep.

“You…” Gu Xiaoai was startled by his sudden movement. She shrank back instinctively, unsure of what to say.

“I almost thought you really wanted to kill me.” Li Juefeng’s eyes burned with a simmering anger. He grabbed her and pinned her down on the bed with one swift motion. “Since you can’t sleep, why don’t we find something else to do?”

…

Gu Xiaoai gasped for air, her chest heaving as she tried to recover from the shock. “You were awake the whole time?”

Wasn’t he afraid she might actually kill him?

“Gu Xiaoai, you can’t kill me. Don’t waste your energy.” His voice was low and magnetic, laced with a warning as he trailed kisses from her lips downward. “It won’t do you any good.”

His hand moved along the curves of her body beneath the blanket, exploring with deliberate intent.

Gu Xiaoai forced herself to suppress the urge to struggle. Instead, she pointed toward the phone on the bedside table. “Your phone is still ringing.”

“Beep-beep-beep-”

Li Juefeng frowned as he leaned over her, then shifted his position on the bed. He scooped her up into his arms, holding her close as he reached for the phone. Answering it without a word, his other hand continued its wandering exploration of her body.

“Mr. Li, everything you instructed has been taken care of.” A woman’s voice, formal and businesslike, came through the phone.

“Hmm,” Li Juefeng responded coldly, his tone indifferent. He lowered his head to kiss Gu Xiaoai’s forehead, his lips slowly trailing down to her eyes, clearly intending to continue their entanglement.

“Mr. Li, if you’re interested, you might want to watch the Evening News,” the woman’s voice added from the other end of the call.

“Got it.”

“Then I won’t disturb you further. Good night.”

Li Juefeng tossed the phone aside carelessly, pulling Gu Xiaoai closer as he leaned in for another kiss. She quickly seized the opportunity to feign curiosity, asking, “What Evening News? Is there some juicy gossip?”

This Evening News… it must be something intriguing.

Letting her see it wouldn’t hurt.

She might even thank him for it.
