Chapter 555: 483 This Feeling, This Night (Thank You for the Tip!)

"Whoosh..."

Having returned to his own room next door, Jiang Chen immediately rushed into the bedroom to take a shower.

Being tempted twice in one evening was undoubtedly a challenge to his endurance threshold.

"Whew..."

He let the water flow over his head as he exhaled deeply.

Without long-term worries, there are bound to be near-term anxieties.

Some honey, in reality, is coated with poison, and it must not be consumed.

There’s no need for regret.

Right.

It’s not worth regretting.

Jiang Chen kept reminding himself.

What he had done was definitely a wise choice.

The sound of a ringing phone faintly came from outside.

After about ten minutes.

Jiang Chen finished showering, wrapped in a bath towel, wiping his hair, he fished out his mobile phone from the jacket hanging on the rack.

It was a call from Li Shuru.

He dialed her back.

"What are you up to?" Li Shuru’s soft voice came through.

"I was just showering and didn’t hear it."

"You haven’t been up to anything naughty, have you?"

Could it be that a woman’s sixth sense is always so accurate?

Jiang Chen’s heart fluttered slightly, and he laughed as if nothing had happened, "No, just got back from a social event. By the way, I’m almost done with things here, I’ll come to find you in a couple of days."

"I’m not in New York right now. I’m in Seattle."

"Seattle?"

Jiang Chen said in surprise, "What brought you there?"

Seattle is in Washington State, a considerable distance from New York, but it’s rather close to Los Angeles, with just Oregon in between.

"Just traveling."

Li Shuru sounded like she was lying in bed, the sounds of her turning over came through, "We two abandoned girls can only find things to do by ourselves."

Jiang Chen chuckled wryly, "Ya Li is with you?"

Liu Hongzhi should be quite busy during this time as well.

"Yeah. She’s always wanted to come to Seattle but had no one to accompany her, so I, as her sister, just had to fulfill this wish for her."

"You wanted to go yourself."

Jiang Chen laughed, continuing to dry his hair as he chatted idly with his girlfriend, "Is Seattle fun?"

"It’s fun. It’s even more beautiful than depicted in the movies. We just finished watching a symphony concert tonight..."

Just like couples on a phone call, Li Shuru shared the details of her travels, and mentioned that they were next planning to visit Las Vegas.

Jiang Chen listened patiently, occasionally interjecting with a few words.

"Sis, are you on the phone with your brother-in-law?"

The voice of Xue Yali could be vaguely heard.

"Yeah, I’ll stop talking now."

Unable to continue the conversation with Jiang Chen with her sister around, Li Shuru chose to end the call.

"Goodnight."

"Goodnight."

Jiang Chen put down his phone and dried his hair.

"Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong..."

The doorbell rang.

Jiang Chen thought it was Bai Haoran. Wrapped in a bath towel, he went to open the door, and the person at the door took him by surprise.

Indeed.

It took him by surprise.

"May I come in?"

There stood Pei Yunxi, who had previously suggested disrobing, now dressed in simple attire, no longer radiant, but still causing Jiang Chen’s heart to skip a half-beat.

"What are you here for?"

Jiang Chen, like a startled maiden, blocked the doorway.

"I haven’t eaten much earlier, so I’m quite hungry. I’ve ordered some late-night snacks, let’s eat together."

Jiang Chen truly didn’t know what she was thinking.

She had actually followed him to his door.

Did she really think he wouldn’t dare to take her up on her offer?

Well, he kind of didn’t dare.

"Is there someone else inside?"

Seeing him block the doorway with no movement, Pei Yunxi asked casually, as naturally as if nothing had happened before.

This acting skills—worthy of at least an Oscar nomination.

"No."

Jiang Chen, distracted, shook his head instinctively.

"Hm."

Pei Yunxi nodded and then pushed the door.

Jiang Chen froze in place, unable to really block the door, so he stepped aside.

"I’m going to rest now, you can go eat in your room."

Jiang Chen felt somewhat uneasy.

Stars care a lot about their figure and diet. It’s well-known. Yet she wanted to eat late-night snacks?

And not just that, why did she have to drag him into it? Couldn’t she eat comfortably by herself?

"I can’t eat much on my own, and I hate wasting food."

Before Jiang Chen could come to his senses, accompanied by a waft of fragrance, Pei Yunxi had already walked past him and sat down on the sofa.

Jiang Chen’s lips moved as he felt something was off in her words, yet he couldn’t find the right angle to argue at the moment.

"The delivery person will be here soon. Aren’t you going to change?"

It was only then that Jiang Chen realized he was just wrapped in a bath towel.

Without saying much, he hurried into the bedroom, embarrassed.

Pei Yunxi sat at ease, as if the room was her own.

"Ding-dong, ding-dong..."

Pei Yunxi got up to answer the door.

"Good evening, here’s the food you ordered."

"Come on in."

Jiang Chen emerged from the bedroom, now clothed.

Good grief.

The food had been directly delivered to his room.

What was more, the delivery person even brought a bottle of brandy in an ice bucket.

The hotel would never send alcohol without reason; it must have been requested.

"Enjoy your meal."

After setting the food down, the delivery person left with the trolley.

"Come over," Pei Yunxi called out.

"I thought you didn’t drink?" Jiang Chen walked over.

"Since when do I not drink? I just rarely do."

Indeed.

She didn’t drink much, just to protect herself, but that didn’t mean she never drank.

Perhaps truly hungry, Pei Yunxi had already picked up the utensils and started sampling the late-night snack.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but feel his appetite stir.

Because of the disturbance by Miss Vera, he indeed hadn’t managed to eat much at the social event.

So he sat down.

"Pour the drinks," Pei Yunxi commanded without looking up.
