Chapter 12 Refreshing the Understanding of Tough Women

Qiao Chengxun's arrival delighted the mother and daughter to no end.

"Young Master Qiao, what wind has blown you here? Please come in and have a seat," Huang Yuling welcomed with a beaming smile, and she turned back to give an order, "Lili, quickly fetch a glass of water for Young Master Qiao."

"Sure, right away!" Wen Lili, grinning from ear to ear, hurried off to get the water.

Without saying a word, Qiao Chengxun walked to the sofa and sat down, his haughty and icy gaze sweeping over the vast living room, as if searching for something.

Huang Yuling asked obsequiously, "Young Master Qiao, may I know the reason for your unexpected visit to our home?"

"I'm here to take my wife back home," Qiao Chengxun said gravely.

A layer of stiffness crossed Huang Yuling's smiling face, skepticism seeping into her eyes, "Young Master Qiao, your wife..."

Could it be Lili?

When Wen Lili heard the word "wife," she too, inexplicably thought of herself; carrying half a glass of water, she quickly made her way over and plopped down next to her mother, handing the water to Qiao Chengxun.

"Young Master Qiao, who is your wife?"

Qiao Chengxun countered, "Where's Meimei?"

At that, the expressions on both mother and daughter dramatically changed, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Impossible, how could Qiao Chengxun possibly marry someone like wen Meimei, a lowlife? Impossible!

"Young Master Qiao,"

"She's on the second floor, isn't she?" Qiao Chengxun stood up on his own and headed straight to the second floor.

The mother and daughter Wen sat stunned on the sofa, suddenly at a loss for words.

Qiao Chengxun truly came for Wen Meimei!

His intentions were clear, he was here to marry Wen Meimei!

…

On the second floor, at the end of the hallway, in the smallest bedroom, one could occasionally hear the thunderous shouts of a girl.

"Last-hitting, last-hitting!"

"Damn, I'm being mobbed by creeps, Mage come and poison them for me."

"Are you an idiot, doctor? I still have half a health bar left, I'm not dying, don't heal me!"

"Damn it, after this round kick this rubbish doctor, taking up space..."

His ears caught her voice before he saw her.

Qiao Chengxun stopped outside the door, courteously knocking three times, but the tomboy inside was almost isolated from the world with her headset on.

Qiao Chengxun's patience was limited, and after waiting half a minute with no response, he took it upon himself to open the door and enter.

It was hot inside the room, the air conditioning was off, maybe it was broken, or perhaps intentionally not turned on.

The scene before him shattered Qiao Chengxun's previous perceptions of a tomboy…

Wen Meimei, with a headset on, sat cross-legged like a rugged man in front of her laptop, excitedly slamming away at the mouse and keyboard.

She wore only underwear, her smooth back carrying leftover marks of last night's passionate encounter, red and purple bruises trailing down, sweat running down her back... probably the best description of the woman before him.

Qiao Chengxun was stunned for a few seconds before stepping forward, reaching out to remove the girl's headset.

"Damn it, I'll kill you—" Wen Meimei turned with a glare, but her boldness deflated in the next second, "Hehehe... Young Master Qiao, what brings you here?"

God damn it, it's like seeing a ghost in broad daylight!

The coldness in Qiao Chengxun's eyes turned icy as he followed her jawline down to the scenery on her chest.

On her neck, shoulders, collarbone, and chest, there were marks from where he had explored.

Feeling his strange gaze, Wen Meimei belatedly realized where he was looking and her face instantly flushed a deep red, "Young Master Qiao, haven't you heard of the principle of 'no leering'?"

Qiao Chengxun hummed thoughtfully, turning his back to her, "You have one minute to put your clothes on."

"You'd better not peek!" Wen Meimei scrambled to get dressed, picking the same white T-shirt and denim bib pants she had on that morning.

After getting dressed, her body felt even hotter, surely because the air conditioner was broken.
