Chapter 127 I haven’t settled the score with you yet
Xu Jiaqian said nothing. After a while, it became quiet outside. He thought Ruan Wanshu had gone back to the bedroom after trying to no avail, so he hurriedly took a shower and opened the door.
The bathrobe was placed on a metal rack outside, so when Xu Jiaqian walked out of the bathroom, he was naked.
He opened the door a crack, but there was no one standing in front of it, so he really thought Ruan Wanshu had been lying on the bed. After he opened the door completely, he realized that the person was not gone, but shorter.
Ruan Wanshu was squatting in the corner next to the door frame, her face buried in her knees, her back facing upwards. When she saw a sound in her ears, she raised her face, her eyes full of longing and hope.
"Do you really want to take a shower?"
The answer she got was Ruan Wanshu's nod and a mutter, "It stinks."
Ruan Wanshu was very drunk and it was not safe to bathe alone in the bathroom. Seeing her insistence, Xu Jiaqian had no choice but to agree. He reached for the bathrobe and put it on. The belt was tied loosely, exposing a large area of skin on his chest.
"Then you go in and wash up, and I'll wait for you at the door."
A minute later, the bathroom door closed again, and there was a faint sound of water running. Ruan Wanshu was taking a bath in the bathroom, and Xu Jiaqian was waiting at the door.
"Ruan Wanshu."
"Arrived."
After two or three minutes, "Ruan Wanshu."
"Arrived."
In this way, Xu Jiaqian would call Ruan Wanshu's name every few minutes to make sure she was still awake.
But there are always accidents.
"Ruan Wanshu."
This time no one responded, but there was still the sound of rushing water inside.
Xu Jiaqian didn't hesitate anymore and pushed open the glass door. Steaming water mist hit his face. There was no one inside. He frowned, opened his legs and walked a few steps inside.
Caught off guard, an impact force came from behind him. His body was knocked forward and he pressed his hand on the wall beside him to stabilize himself in time.
"You must have been deceived by me."
The woman's voice was sweet and soft, and she could vaguely hear a bit of pride.
The soft arms like white lotus roots went around Xu Jiaqian's neck and hugged his shoulders and neck.
"Come down." Xu Jiaqian patted Ruan Wanshu's lower back with his backhand.
"I don't."
One wanted her to come down, but the other refused. The two remained in a stalemate.
Until Ruan Wanshu's warm lips inadvertently touched the back of Xu Jiaqian's neck again.
Xu Jiaqian's big hands had veins popping out, and he pressed Ruan Wanshu's lower back forcefully. He turned around, bent down, put his two hands through her popliteal fossa, lifted her thighs, lifted her up, and brought her face to face. hugged him.
The sudden flight forced Ruan Wanshu to wrap her legs around Xu Jiaqian's waist, hold her arms tighter, and bury her whole body into the crook of his neck.
They were carried from the bathroom to the big bed, and the two of them fell into the soft bed.
"Don't turn your back on people tomorrow morning."
The man's deep voice sounded in the room, announcing the final verdict.
Perhaps realizing that the danger was really coming, Ruan Wanshu pushed Xu Jiaqian's shoulders with both hands, twisted her body, and refused to cooperate. She moved from one side of the bed to the other, kicking her legs on the bed.
Seeing that most of her body was leaning out of the bed and about to land on her head, Xu Jiaqian quickly reached out to hold Ruan Wanshu's hand.
But what was faster than Xu Jiaqian's hand was Ruan Wanshu's subconscious.
When she saw Xu Jiaqian reaching out, she thought he was coming to catch her, so she leaned back with all her strength.
His eyes were still staring at Xu Jiaqian in front of him. As he watched, his body suddenly fell down, and there was a "thud" sound mixed with a short exclamation. Ruan Wanshu's eyes moved to the ceiling as white as snow. Her upper body had fallen to the ground, and her two legs were still on the bed.
Fortunately, there was carpet on the floor, so it wasn't too painful. Xu Jiaqian quickly stood up and pulled Ruan Wanshu up from the ground, "Is everything okay?"
After this collision, I became sober no matter how unconscious I was.
"What do you think?"
Ruan Wanshu maintained her fallen posture and asked lightly.
She covered her head with both hands and looked at Xu Jiaqian with sad eyes. She ignored the hand he handed over and got up on her own.
Seeing her expression, Xu Jiaqian blurted out: "It's not me who pushed you."
As soon as these words came out, Ruan Wanshu took a deep breath, but Xu Jiaqian vomited blood in anger, and covered her chest with her hands, "Clothes."
"I haven't seen anything about you." Xu Jiaqian snorted, his words unforgiving, but he still got up and walked to the end of the bed.
Ruan Wanshu pulled up the quilt on the bed, wrapped it around her body, reached out to take the pajamas, and at the same time gouged out Xu Jiaqian's eyes.
After hiding under the quilt and getting dressed in embarrassment, she stood up: "I want to go home, please give me the car keys."
"Okay." The car key was still on the bedside table. Xu Jiaqian reached for it and threw it to Ruan Wanshu opposite, "Drunk driver, if you drive out for a second, I will call the traffic police immediately."
He added slowly: "Come to think of it, it's the end of the year, and they really want to improve their KPIs."
"Then I'll find someone to pick up the head office," Ruan Wanshu gritted her teeth.
"Over there with the security guard, who do you think can get in?"
The implication of these two sentences is that it is impossible for Ruan Wanshu to leave tonight.
Xu Jiaqian himself had put on his pajamas comfortably, lifted the quilt, and lay on the bed, with his hands crossed on the back of his head, looking at Ruan Wanshu with interest.
Ruan Wanshu was wearing thin pajamas, standing barefoot on the ground, constantly comforting herself in her heart, saying that dogs are not human beings, and the situation forces...
"Where do I sleep?"
Xu Jiaqian raised the corners of his lips, lifted a corner of the quilt, and patted the bed beside him.
"Is there any other room?" Ruan Wanshu frowned slightly, her face full of resistance.
Xu Jiaqian straightened the curve at the corner of his mouth, put down the quilt with his backhand, and dropped a sentence: "I love to sleep or not."
Ruan Wanshu had no choice but to crawl into bed slowly, "You should go to sleep."
She took a pillow and placed it between the two of them, stared into Xu Jiaqian's eyes, and warned: "Don't come over."
What was exchanged was a disdainful snort from Xu Jiaqian.
The next morning.
Ruan Wanshu turned over and lay on her side, raised her legs and bent her knees. The upper leg stretched forward, not directly touching the sheets, but the human touch.
She lifted it up vaguely and uncertainly, then pressed it down again, this time it was still a human touch.
She suddenly opened her eyes, and in front of her was Xu Jiaqian, who was still sleeping. The memories of last night came back like a flood. She turned around slowly, lifted a corner of the quilt, moved gently, and as soon as her feet stretched out of the quilt, Was dragged back.
"Are you awake?"
A man's low, lazy voice sounded in the room.
"Yeah." Ruan Wanshu stretched out a finger and poked Xu Jiaqian's tense arm, "Let me go."
"Let you go," Xu Jiaqian raised the corners of his mouth in an unclear manner, staring at her with hawk-like eyes, and said in a cold voice: "I haven't settled the score with you yet?"
