Zhu Ning nodded vaguely. "Ah, you're fine too, you're fine too. Everyone's doing great."
Qi Yuwu couldn't help laughing when he saw her pretending to understand just for the sake of face while actually not getting a thing.
Zhu Ning was really annoyed by his laughter. "What on earth is so funny?"
Qi Yuwu straightened up while still laughing. "I've already told you."
She didn't understand!
Zhu Ning didn't understand but dared not ask, afraid that he would say something even more shocking and leave her even more at a loss.
She was in a dilemma. Once again, Zhu Ning chose to run away. "You can keep laughing. I'm going to sleep. Bye!"
She dashed off. With a smile on his lips, Qi Yuwu followed her unhurriedly. "Slow down. Watch your step."
They lived in two adjacent rooms on the same floor. They entered their rooms one on the left and the other on the right. Finally, Zhu Ning had time to check her phone.
There were hundreds of missed calls and hundreds of unread messages. Xu Liunian, Chi Wunian, and Pei Jin were looking for her everywhere.
Seeing such a large - scale search, Zhu Ning felt even more panicked. Could she still go back? Who would let her off if she did?
She had no choice but to go all the way!
She hadn't looked at her phone for long when a message from Qi Yuwu came in: Are you asleep? I need a little help.
Zhu Ning asked: What's the matter?
He sent a voice message. His tone was lazy and a bit leisurely.
"The water pipe in my room burst. Can I come to your room for a favor?"
Before Zhu Ning could react, he sent a photo.
The indirect light from the entrance hall lamp illuminated the anti - fog mirror in the bathroom. Qi Yuwu stood sideways with his back to the mirror. His thin white undershirt clung to his chest and abdomen, outlining his strong waist. Water droplets dripped from his wet hair onto his eyelashes. He was so handsome that this situation didn't make him look embarrassed at all. Instead, it added a touch of desolation.
The first thing that came to Zhu Ning's mind was the failed wet - body temptation by Xu Liunian before.
She looked at her phone again.
She was almost instantly certain that Qi Yuwu was definitely trying to seduce her!
The young man was indeed charming, but she really didn't dare to take the bait now. She could only type a refusal with a heavy heart: It's not very convenient... I suggest you go to the B&B owner...
Before she could send the message, there was a knock on the door. Her hand trembled, and Zhu Ning tiptoed to the door. She stood on her tiptoes and looked out through the peephole. Sure enough, she saw Qi Yuwu's handsome and lazy face.
Zhu Ning stood still, afraid that since she didn't take the bait, he not only sent messages but also came to her in person to seduce her?
"Who, who is it?"
The sound came from inside. Qi Yuwu's gaze swept from the peephole and he saw a moving shadow inside. He smiled silently. "It's me."
"The water pipe in my room burst. Sister, can you save me?"
"Ah, that's so unfortunate. Didn't you go to the B&B owner?"
Qi Yuwu lowered his voice, sounding a bit pitiful. "I did. They're fixing it, but I'm all wet now and I urgently need a place to take a hot bath. It's so cold, sister."
Sister didn't dare to save you!
"Ah, that's too bad. There's no water in my room either. You should ask the boss to change your room."
Qi Yuwu said, "I just asked. There are no other rooms in the B&B. They're all full."
"Sister, are you really that heartless?"
His voice, somewhere between a youth's and an adult's, sounded even more magnetic through the door. It made Zhu Ning's face flush.
Not for any other reason, but for Qi Yuwu's ability to tell lies with a straight face.
She had just seen many empty rooms downstairs!
She suddenly felt like the Tang Monk in the story, and Qi Yuwu was the White - Bone Demon outside the circle.
"I also want to save you, but it's really not convenient here. There's really no water. You'd better go to the boss!"
For the third time, Qi Yuwu seemed really discouraged. "Got it."
He turned around and left. Zhu Ning felt relieved. "Thank goodness I'm firm - minded."
She turned around and got on the bed. Not long after she took off her shoes, there was another knock on the door.
"Hello, customer. Your companion said there's no water in your room. We're here to check."
Zhu Ning: …
Two minutes later, Zhu Ning stood at the door and reluctantly let Qi Yuwu in. Qi Yuwu then smiled and apologized to the B&B owner. "Sorry. There's nothing wrong with her room. I just wanted to trick her into dating me, so I asked you to come. I'm sorry for the trouble."
Zhu Ning:!
B&B owner:!
Zhu Ning pulled Qi Yuwu into the room. "Shut up!"
Qi Yuwu laughed as soon as he entered the room.
Zhu Ning closed the door. "Qi Yuwu, how could you be such a person?"
Qi Yuwu looked innocent. "Didn't you say you'd help me?"
"When did I say that?"
" 'I also really want to help you' " Qi Yuwu laughed. "You said it."
"Do you only listen to half of what people say?"
Qi Yuwu said confidently, "Half is enough."
Zhu Ning felt so wronged. She turned around and walked away. "Then take a shower here. I'm leaving—"
Qi Yuwu propped his hand against the wall, blocking her way. Zhu Ning looked up at him angrily. Qi Yuwu lowered his head with a smile. "Come on, sister. Why are you so timid? You run away as soon as you see me?"
Zhu Ning gritted her teeth. "Why do you think I'm running?"
Qi Yuwu's eyelashes were wet. There was a hazy mist on his fair skin. He was young and full of energy. His handsome face was wet, and his thin lips were red. He looked so kissable. He spoke in a magnetic voice with a smile. "I don't know, sister. You tell me."
His handsome face was so close that Zhu Ning could even smell the steam on his body, mixed with the fragrance of his soap. It was the smell of a healthy young man, a very clean smell. Zhu Ning felt her face getting hot under his gaze. She averted her eyes and half - guessed his words. "Qi Yuwu, stop pretending to be stupid."
Qi Yuwu laughed. His voice was buzzing. Zhu Ning was really annoyed. She wanted to scold him but was afraid he'd enjoy it. She was so frustrated that she gritted her teeth. "Please, just let me go, okay?"
"Nope." He answered simply. "I have something of mine on you. I can't let you go."
"You're just making things up. When did I take your stuff?"
"Don't admit it?"
Zhu Ning looked wronged and不服气.
Qi Yuwu touched his chest with two fingers. "My stuff." Then his slender fingers touched her chest. "It's here with you."
"You took it."
"I can't get it back."
He laughed. "So I have to follow you until I get yours too. Then we'll be even."
There was no way they could be even!
Even a brave woman is afraid of a persistent man. Zhu Ning's face was very hot. "Save your breath. There's no future for us. I don't date my friends."
"We don't have to be friends." Qi Yuwu got closer to her. "I don't want to be your friend. I want to be your lover."
Qi Yuwu's fingers slowly threaded through hers. He whispered seductively, "If you don't want to see me as a lover, then see me as a lover. You can play with me however you like. Come when you call, go when you tell me to. I'll do whatever you say. Okay?"
