Chapter 39 - 39: The Phone Holds an Unspeakable Secret
Yan Ting remained indifferent, as if the words Gu Qianxi just said had no effect on him whatsoever.
"Uh... No, I'm not his woman. You've misunderstood," Banxia hurried to explain.
Yan Ting's gaze swept over her, visibly displeased. Looking at her bright red face, he let out a cold snort: "We've already slept together. If you're not my woman, who do you want to be with instead?"
Banxia: "..." Could this man be any more unbearable?
The previously furious Tong Keke suddenly lit up, her beautiful eyes sparkling with tears and laughter: "Uncle, she really isn't your woman?"
"Of course not!" Gu Qianxi shot her a glare before snapping angrily, "Who told you to wear such a short skirt? And that camisole—go home and change right now!"
"No way, I like dressing like this!" Tong Keke said with a coquettish laugh.
"Tong Keke, are you getting bolder and just ignoring everything your guardian says?" Gu Qianxi's usual good temper was gone; his handsome face darkened in an instant, and his scolding startled even Banxia.
Tong Keke pouted and muttered, "Alright, you're always using the word guardian to oppress me. Just wait until I turn 20—I want to see how you plan to control me then!"
"I'll manage you for the rest of your life!" Gu Qianxi gritted his teeth.
Tong Keke's beautiful eyes sparkled brightly as she leaned against Gu Qianxi's chest like a kitten: "Really? Uncle, you better keep your word!"
"Go home now!" Gu Qianxi's lips pressed into a hard line, his attitude unyielding.
"Got it!" Tong Keke instantly transformed into the picture of obedience.
Banxia quickly interrupted, "Wait a moment, little sister. Could you delete the photo you just took?"
Tong Keke blinked as though realizing something: "Oh, sorry, big sister! I didn't mean to take your... um, special photo. I'll delete it right away!"
When Yan Ting heard the word "special photo," his deep, ocean-black eyes instantly turned inscrutable.
At the moment Tong Keke retrieved her phone, he seized it with a swift motion. Without hesitation, he confiscated the phone: "Gu Qianxi, educate your niece properly. Don't let her turn bad at such a young age!"
"Hey, my phone..." Tong Keke cried out in surprise.
Gu Qianxi froze, then quickly grabbed her little hand: "Let's go. Uncle is buying you a new phone."
"But..." Tong Keke pointed towards the phone, thinking of all the candid pictures of her uncle stored inside.
"No buts! If you don't want uncle to go blind from what's in there, then hurry up and leave!" Gu Qianxi knew Yan Ting too well. When it came to intimate photographs of his woman, no one else dared to look at them.
After the uncle and niece left, the atmosphere in the lounge instantly grew tense and ambiguous.
Banxia's beautiful eyes were glued to the phone in his hand.
"Give me the phone—I have to destroy it!" Banxia held out her hand, her tone unyielding.
Yan Ting ignored her completely, slipping the phone into the inner pocket of his suit jacket.
"What are you doing? I need to destroy that phone!" Banxia raised her voice several notches, clearly frustrated.
"This phone is mine now." Yan Ting's tone was unreadable, yet overwhelmingly domineering.
"What do you even want it for?" Banxia's face flushed deep red all at once.
"What do you think?" Yan Ting's lips curled into an evil, cunning smile. "When I'm bored, I can enjoy the view."
"You..." Banxia was livid. Enjoy her "special photo"? This man's tastes were way too outrageous.
Yan Ting's dark, sultry eyes fixed on the woman in front of him. Perhaps it was the thinness of her outfit, but the water dripping from her long hair had already soaked her chest, revealing a faint outline of the purple straps beneath.
Banxia noticed his focused gaze, glanced down, and realized she was on the verge of another wardrobe mishap. She quickly twisted her hair into a rope to wring out the water, then grabbed a towel to vigorously wipe herself dry.
