CHAPTER 291
Flashes of images of the scene where she packed all of her undies, bras and little nightwear into her smaller box came rolling before her eyes.
Andromeda shut her eyes involuntarily in defeat.
In her feat, she had forgotten to pick up the smaller box with her and only stormed off with the big box containing her clothes.
"Andy..." she gritted as she called out her name and heaved out a sigh.
Letting her gaze trail down the length of her body, she lamented, "Oh, come on. Now I have to go out like this. I just pray Xueyi and his naughty eyes and naughty fingers would be busy while I sneak in and out of the living room as quickly as possible."
Taking in a deep breath, Andromeda straightened her back before taking bold steps towards the door.
After everything that happened, she did not want to look scared and give Liu Xueyi the impression that she was in a dilemma and decided to act up even if she saw him.
Taking another deep breath, Andromeda pulled on the doorknob and stepped into the bedroom.
She did not bother to look ahead, considering she was so sure of where she had left the box.
Tasking a step to her left, she tried to hurry off in the direction of the living room before she got caught by Liu Xueyi.
The only thoughts on her mind were her clean escape and break and she meant it.
Andromeda had barely taken a few steps in that direction when she heard his deep voice from the opposite corner of the room and halted in her steps.
"And where do you think your two small legs are sneaking forth to and back?"
At first, she froze while keeping her gaze locked on the destination ahead. If she pretended as though she did not hear him, then there was nothing to be concerned with.
That was her thought until her gaze landed on the living room and she found her bag was nowhere in sight.
"What?" Andromeda muttered with her gaze roaming in the living room but still, she refused to look in his direction and pretended as though he wasn't there.
"Until when would you act like a mouse trying to steal?" She heard his voice ask once more.
Left with no other choice, she drew out a breath, letting her shoulders slump a bit and pressed her right hand to her chest, securing her towel in place as she turned to her side to look at him.
Parting her lips, Andromeda was ready to fight back when her eyes landed on him and what he was doing.

Her brain went down for a moment as her eyes took in what he was holding.
"You still want to pretend that you didn't hear me earlier on?" Liu Xueyi asked and crossed his arms in front of his chest.
Regardless of his question, Andromeda's jaw fell as her eyes widened more.
Staring her in the face was the small box she was looking for, opened on the bed in front of Liu Xueyi with its contents displayed for all to see.
Had it been that they were displayed in her box, Andromeda would not have been too bothered. What had irked her the most was the fact that he…
"You love the sampling I did?" he asked, curving his lips upward, revealing a nice smile.
He had the guts to pick them up and in accessing, display them on the bed.
Slowly her eyes moved from the bed and trailed up his body, going from his waist to his shirtless muscular chest.
Immediately, her brows drew together as the light in her eyes dimmed out further. Clutched between his fingers was one of her panties.
To be precise, the very lingerie set he loved the most.
Andromeda did not know what to think at the moment as words failed her. Her brain was in turmoil and filled with rage.
She was already mad with him and now his brain could not function enough to say the words she wished she could yell into his brain.
Clenching her hands at her side, Andromeda turned around fully and stormed her way over to him.
As soon as she got in front of him, she unclenched her fist and lifted her head, so she was looking at him deep in the eyes.
"Xueyi!"
He blinked back a smile as his eyes twinkled with mirth. "Yes, love?"
Unfazed by his charm, Andromeda attacked still. "What nonsense do you think you are doing?"
"I am helping you unpack."
"Did I ask you to?"
"You do not need to ask me before I can help my baby unpack. What kind of boyfriend would I be if I cannot do that simple task?"
"A nosy one," she snapped and whipped her head away from his tempting eyes and straight down at his hand.
"Ouchie, that hurt, Andy."
She gave him the 'I don't care look' and returned her gaze to his hand. "I would be taking that," she informed as she tried to snatch her lingerie from him.
However, before her hand could gap the said outfit, he pulled his hand up, far from her reach while letting his towering form intimidate her.
"No love. I would be holding on to this one."
"Xueyi," Andromeda voiced through gritted teeth. "Give it back."
"No. Sorry, can't do it."
"Xueyi…" Her brows furrowed deeper as did the look in her eyes, growing from normal to darkened.
"Let go. I am not playing. Give me back my lingerie."
'Nope. You bought it to wear for me and the fact that you brought it here with you proves that you wanted us to have a good time.'
"What?"
Her brain barely had time to register what he said when he took a step forward, covering her with his figure. "You want me to make love to you, Andy, right?"
"No."
"Lies. Then why did you bring it?"
"To look good for me. I never expected to be in the same room as you in the first place."
"Is that so? Or did you plan on using it on someone else?"
Immediately the words fell out of his lips, pain flashed before Andromeda's eyes.
