She was unhappy that a few of her maids had seen him in such a state.
Hence her unreasonable fit of pique.
Realizing this, Xie Jinbai couldn't suppress the joy that filled his heart.
The angrier she got, the stronger her possessiveness over him.
And that only made Xie Jinbai happier.
After all, when it came to her, he was obsessed with every single detail, almost to the point of madness. No one understood this feeling better than he did.
If their roles were reversed—if she were the one lying naked, covered only by a thin quilt, and exposed before his subordinates—
Xie Jinbai would probably have exploded on the spot.
This was, in fact, the very first time their positions had been swapped.
For the first time since the dawn of creation, he truly felt he had finally gained a foothold in his beloved's heart. Xie Jinbai was utterly ecstatic.
The joy radiating from his usually stern face was so obvious that even the cleaning servants could see it.
Let alone Cui Lingyao.
