Chapter 94: Chapter 94: Have You Calmed Down?

Xu Jinzhi struggled to sit up straight and, turning her head to look at Xie Yanchuan, said with a smile, "It’s getting late, I’ll go take a shower first."

Xie Yanchuan was also looking at Xu Jinzhi and, upon hearing her words, simply acknowledged softly.

Then Xu Jinzhi handed the empty plate she was holding to Xie Yanchuan and started walking towards the bedroom.

At this moment, Xu Jinzhi seemed to be in a very good mood, humming a tune whose song she was unsure of.

Xie Yanchuan watched as Xu Jinzhi returned to the bedroom, then, carrying the empty plate in hand, went to the kitchen to wash and put away the dishes before coming back out.

Xu Jinzhi’s suitcase was still by the entryway; Xie Yanchuan went over to pick up her suitcase and began to neatly arrange everything inside.

By the time he had finished tidying up, Xu Jinzhi had already come out of the bathroom.

She had washed her hair and hadn’t gotten around to blow-drying it yet, so Xie Yanchuan went over to help her dry it.

Xu Jinzhi didn’t object, simply sitting on the small couch browsing through her phone until Xie Yanchuan had finished drying her hair.

"All done," said Xie Yanchuan, his voice gentle.

Xu Jinzhi tossed her phone aside and, smiling, told Xie Yanchuan, "It’s your turn to shower."

Xie Yanchuan looked at Xu Jinzhi, his gaze seemingly undergoing a slight change, as if he had remembered something or perhaps nothing at all, but after a moment, he just replied, "Okay."

Xu Jinzhi sat there, watching as Xie Yanchuan put the hairdryer away and went to get his pajamas, only moving once he had gone into the bathroom.

She didn’t even put on slippers as she hurried into the walk-in closet.

Men usually don’t take long to shower, so Xu Jinzhi also didn’t have much time; once inside the closet, she began to search through the wardrobe.

She remembered that Xie Yanchuan had placed something in the wardrobe here; she had even stumbled upon it once before.

But after rifling through the wardrobe, Xu Jinzhi couldn’t find what she was looking for and muttered in annoyance, "How come it’s gone?"

She didn’t forget to glance outwards while searching, and although a distance away, she couldn’t hear the sound of water from the bathroom and had no idea how much longer Xie Yanchuan would be.

Xu Jinzhi hurriedly continued her search, and fortunately, it didn’t take long for her to spot that box, her eyes lighting up immediately.

She quickly took the box out, thinking that if Song You were here at this moment, he would recognize it as the "wedding gift" he had given to Xu Jinzhi.

Xu Jinzhi squatted down to open the box and take out its contents.

Even though she couldn’t help but feel embarrassed looking at it, she had already made up her mind that morning, so now she had to brave through it!

Thus, Xu Jinzhi took everything out of the box.

Xu Jinzhi quickly changed into the thin little piece of fabric, and looking at herself in the mirror, her cheeks turned a bit red. At the same time, she couldn’t help but let out a sigh of admiration at her reflection, "So beautiful!"

After marveling at her own endless charm, Xu Jinzhi quickly got up and went over to the vanity table that Xie Yanchuan had specially prepared for her possible overnight stay.

Picking up two bottles of perfume, Xu Jinzhi sniffed them and chose the one she liked better to spray on herself lightly.

The scent was not overpowering, but against the backdrop of the moment, it seemed incredibly intimate.

When Xie Yanchuan came out of the bathroom, he had a towel in one hand, drying his damp hair, but he had only taken a couple of steps when he suddenly froze.

In the bedroom, Xu Jinzhi hadn’t turned off the light, just lying on her side on the bed, her elbow propped on the mattress and the palm of her hand supporting the back of her head, smiling at Xie Yanchuan.

"You..." The scene before him gave Xie Yanchuan an immense shock, and it took him a while to speak, as he didn’t know at all what to say.

Xie Yanchuan’s heartbeat was very fast, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.

After a long silence, Xu Jinzhi finally said softly, "Aren’t you going to come over?"

Xie Yanchuan still stood there, stunned, but after a moment, he couldn’t help but lift his feet and walk towards Xu Jinzhi.

Xu Jinzhi looked at Xie Yanchuan with a smiling expression the whole time. Although initially she felt somewhat shy, by now, seeing Xie Yanchuan, she thought there was no problem with it.

Humans naturally desire food and sex.

She was the same.

Xie Yanchuan was just very good-looking, and she liked someone like Xie Yanchuan.

"How, how did you suddenly, wear, dress like this?" Xie Yanchuan stammered.

Xu Jinzhi slightly raised her eyebrows, asking in an indifferent tone, "Don’t you like it?"

Xie Yanchuan didn’t speak, because he couldn’t bring himself to say he didn’t like it.

It seemed as if his self-control had vanished at that moment, and all Xie Yanchuan felt was a burning heat throughout his body.

"As long as you like it," Xu Jinzhi said as she crawled out of bed, half-kneeling on it, slightly lifting her head to look at Xie Yanchuan.

Xie Yanchuan lowered his gaze, and at that moment, it was as if he saw stars and seas in the depths of Xu Jinzhi’s eyes, uncontrollably drawn to her.

Seeing the infatuated look in Xie Yanchuan’s eyes for her, Xu Jinzhi appeared somewhat smug.

Later, when the two of them were tightly embracing each other, Xu Jinzhi, while gasping for breath, asked Xie Yanchuan, "Xie Yanchuan, have I made you happy now?"

Xie Yanchuan was momentarily bewildered and didn’t understand what Xu Jinzhi meant by her words.

Xu Jinzhi, with her arms around Xie Yanchuan’s neck and teary eyes, said in a slightly hoarse voice, "It’s useless what others do, Xie Yanchuan, I only like you!"

At this moment, Xie Yanchuan finally realized, belatedly, that when Xu Jinzhi had mentioned "cheering up," it was related to He Jingyi’s incident. Yesterday, Xu Jinzhi had said that once she returned, she would truly cheer him up.

So now she was cheering him up.

Xie Yanchuan was very happy.

However, upon hearing Xu Jinzhi say she only liked him, Xie Yanchuan’s rationality once again crumbled.

Xu Jinzhi followed Xie Yanchuan in their mutual downfall, but ultimately, she couldn’t keep up!

After all, that night she had given the innocent Xie Yanchuan so many thrills, and he simply refused to let her go.

*

The next day.

When the phone’s alarm sounded, Xie Yanchuan opened his eyes immediately and quickly turned it off.

Only then did he look at Xu Jinzhi, who he was holding in his arms – she was still deep in sleep, eyes closed, obviously undisturbed by the ringtone just moments ago.

Xie Yanchuan watched Xu Jinzhi for a while, then kissed her forehead, and cautiously got out of bed.

Worried about disturbing Xu Jinzhi’s rest, Xie Yanchuan took his clothes and went straight to the walk-in closet to wash up, then started preparing breakfast.

When Xie Yanchuan left the apartment, he made sure to check the bedroom one more time; Xu Jinzhi still showed no signs of waking up.
