Chapter 1180: Chapter 1180: You, Get Up Here

The next day, Su Qing woke up with a splitting headache, propped herself up to get out of bed, and the ink-blue quilt slid off her body, uncovering her fair shoulders and delicate collarbones. She yawned lazily, then suddenly felt that something was amiss.

The quality of the sheets beneath her hands was too good, soft and smooth. Accustomed to various top-end fabrics, the words “can’t afford” automatically popped up in her mind.

No, that’s not right—

Soft and smooth? Boom! Su Qing completely exploded and leapt out of bed, stepping barefoot onto the carpet, she rushed out in a flurry.

“Zhou Hengguang.”

Su Qing had never been so angry, even more than when she found out that Lin Weiguo had been impersonated by Zhou Hengguang.

Downstairs, Zhou Jihuai was leading a group in a mahjong game, with over a dozen men and women making a lively scene, when suddenly they heard an exasperated woman’s voice coming from upstairs, and in an instant, everyone fell silent. Players pausing their mahjong game, card-watchers, chatters, discussants…

All of them, as if by some unspoken agreement, looked up toward the stairs, only to see a beautifully fair, gracefully stunning girl in a fiery red silk robe appearing at the top. The legs and bare feet exposed were as delicate as jade, strikingly evocative.

Her picturesque face was unforgettable at a glance, with a lovely and straight nose, and especially a pair of eyes that were somewhere between peach blossom and almond-shaped. Filled with anger, they were exceptionally captivating, making one’s heart race with just a glance.

Below, many people unconsciously gasped.

Some were even transfixed.

Zhou Jihuai had just picked up a lucky tile and casually glanced up, then his gaze shifted to his third nephew, who was sitting alone on a single-seater sofa by the floor-to-ceiling window on the phone. When he saw the dark look on his third nephew’s face, he muttered “shameless.”

“Alright, let’s continue,” Zhou Jihuai called out, breaking the silence.

“Continue, continue.” Everyone was quite embarrassed! No one knew Zhou Hengguang had such a beautiful woman tucked away at home, tsk tsk… Look at her, you can tell she’s just woken up.

In that moment, everyone either looked envious, had mixed feelings or gave Zhou Hengguang odd glances.

Zhou Hengguang’s face was dark with anger, and he tossed his phone aside and stormed upstairs.

Su Qing was also taken aback; she hadn’t expected there to be so many people downstairs. When she felt people’s gazes slipping onto her, she then realized she was wearing a robe. Long-sleeved, knee-length, loosely tied at the waist with a belt, which could easily highlight her slender waist.

This left her embarrassed and furious, thinking that if it had been before, she would’ve been so ashamed and angry that she might as well have jumped down from upstairs. Now she did feel embarrassed, but she wasn’t going to be as weak as that anymore.

Su Qing didn’t hide or tuck herself away, nor did she panic like a rabbit unable to stand up to scrutiny. Since she had been seen, she might as well brazen it out.

“You, come up here.” Su Qing stood boldly at the staircase, gesturing emotionlessly for Zhou Hengguang to come up.

She knew many people were sneakily watching her; let them look, what was there to see?

It’s not like she’d lose a piece of flesh.

Su Qing’s calm demeanor and the way she waved Zhou Hengguang up from her high position instantly amused many. Even Zhou Jihuai couldn’t help but let a smile slip onto his lips, exchanging a knowing glance with the person across from him, both shaking their heads.

The atmosphere, once odd, had relaxed quite a bit.

Zhou Nini was stunned, her hand covering her mouth to stifle any sound, while she could hear people whispering around her.
