Chapter 431: Chapter 431 An Unusual Zhao Xinlian

After clearing the bowls to the kitchen, Chen Wei washed them quickly and then returned to the living room, asking Zhao Xinlian, "Where am I sleeping tonight?"

"My old room should be empty by now, right?" Chen Wei glanced at the door to the storage room under the stairs.

"..." Zhao Xinlian did not answer, in fact, as soon as Chen Wei had moved out, Zhao Xinlian had contacted a junk collector, who took away everything related to Chen Wei and sold it off.

Seeing that the atmosphere had become a bit awkward because of his words, Chen Wei quickly added, "Of course, if you are scared and want me to share a bed with you, I wouldn’t mind."

According to Chen Wei’s expectations, at this moment, Zhao Xinlian should say: Who is scared, who wants to sleep with you, shameless!

But Zhao Xinlian’s reply was, "Fine, anyway, my room has a double bed, it can fit two people without a problem."

Huh?

Her statement caught Chen Wei off guard, not understanding what Zhao Xinlian meant.

Was this woman deliberately tempting him?

Why had she suddenly changed her tune?

Chen Wei was puzzled.

Then, Zhao Xinlian noticed the strange look Chen Wei was giving her, realized he had misunderstood her intention, and quickly started to explain, her face flushing red.

"Don’t! Don’t misunderstand! I was just worried that those people would break in while I’m asleep, and what if you’re such a heavy sleeper that you don’t hear anything and I get taken away by them?"

It was all out of concern for safety! Yes! Everything was out of concern for safety!

Before convincing Chen Wei, Zhao Xinlian had already convinced herself first.

"Also, aside from my room, the bedding, sheets, and pillows from all other rooms have been taken away by the cleaning company for laundering," Zhao Xinlian added.

She was anxious that Chen Wei might misunderstand her intention.

"I see. Since you don’t mind, then I have nothing to mind either," Chen Wei agreed, and immediately went to the bathroom, found a spare toothbrush, and began to freshen up.

Zhao Xinlian put her hand on her chest, listening to the sound coming from the bathroom, feeling that everything was a bit chaotic.

Although it was for safety reasons, is it really okay to be in the same room with a male, sharing a bed?

Keep in mind, before Zhao Xinlian divorced Chen Wei, even when they were married, they never shared a room.

This was really too much of a dilemma!

When Chen Wei finished freshening up and came out of the bathroom, he found that Zhao Xinlian was no longer to be seen, but he could hear footsteps from the bedroom upstairs.

Chen Wei didn’t overthink it and turned off all the lights on the first floor, then went upstairs.

He had already been intimate with Zhao Xinlian; how could he possibly feel emotionally stirred by the thought of sleeping in the same room, on the same bed—it was not like he was a kid who had just fallen in love.

His attitude was the complete opposite of Zhao Xinlian’s.

He grasped the doorknob.

Hearing the sound of the door unlocking, Zhao Xinlian stopped pacing by the bed, took off her shoes, climbed onto the bed, covered herself with the blanket, and even pretentiously picked up a book from the nightstand to read, trying to alleviate the awkwardness.

Chen Wei opened the door and walked into the bedroom.

He never expected that, after living in this house for a full three years, he would feel such strong novelty towards this bedroom.

After all, he hadn’t had much chance to enter it in those three years.

Looking towards Zhao Xinlian, who was "seriously" reading a book, Chen Wei took the initiative to speak up, "Are you so nervous? This was your idea."

"Nervous? When have I ever been nervous? Don’t talk nonsense!" Zhao Xinlian said with a forced smile, finding Chen Wei’s remark somewhat bizarre.

"Oh, really?" Chen Wei walked over to the bed, took off his shoes, lifted the quilt, and sat down, then covered himself again.

Then, he turned his head to look at Zhao Xinlian, locking eyes with her before lowering his gaze to the book in her hands, "It’s upside down."

"Upside down?" At first, Zhao Xinlian didn’t quite understand what Chen Wei meant, but then she realized and immediately flipped the book right side up.

Fortunately, the light of the bedside lamp was a warm yellow, which under its hue, did not easily reveal Zhao Xinlian’s blushing cheeks.

"Alright, I admit it, I am a bit nervous, after all, you are the first man to enter my room, even my dad has never been in here," Zhao Xinlian decided to tell the truth, feeling uncomfortable keeping it inside.

"So, should I feel honored?" Chen Wei asked in return.

"I didn’t say that." Zhao Xinlian rolled her eyes, thinking to herself, Can’t you take a joke without making a fuss?

"But come to think of it, before and after the divorce, you’ve really changed a lot. The old you would have never spoken to me in this tone," Zhao Xinlian suddenly missed the obedient Chen Wei.

"People change," Chen Wei replied simply.

"Yes, not only have you changed, but I have too," Zhao Xinlian did not argue.

Both of them stopped talking, as if out of topics, and the atmosphere quieted down.

"Okay, it’s getting late, let’s sleep. Tomorrow morning I’m responsible for taking you to the Zhao Family. Once the truth is out in the open, my duty will be over," Chen Wei lay down.

"But according to the 24-hour agreement we made, it shouldn’t end until tonight," Zhao Xinlian reminded him.

"Then I’ll only charge half the fee," Chen Wei said, yawning.

"..." Zhao Xinlian.

Chen Wei closed his eyes, ready to drift off to sleep.

He fell asleep surprisingly quickly, which was a skill honed on the battlefield, cherishing every second of sleep to recover his strength.

"What do you mean by that? Do you dislike being with me that much?"

Zhao Xinlian’s sudden outburst pulled Chen Wei back from the verge of stepping through the gateway into the world of dreams.

"The bodyguard duty is done, why else would I stay with you?" Chen Wei found Zhao Xinlian’s question quite odd.

"Do you dislike me so much that you can’t bear to spend an extra minute with me?" Zhao Xinlian asked again.

"If you’re too full and can’t sleep, I suggest you go down and run a couple of laps around the villa, it’ll help with digestion," Chen Wei couldn’t understand what got into Zhao Xinlian, acting so weirdly in the middle of the night.

Each sentence more offbeat than the last.

"I admit, I was really cold and unfair to you before, but you don’t need to hold such hostility against me, do you? I can apologize for those things."

"Let’s just sleep, why say so many meaningless things?" Chen Wei sighed.

He was certain that he hadn’t added any alcohol to the noodle soup he cooked earlier.

Could it be that someone could actually get drunk from noodle soup?

Zhao Xinlian did not speak again, and Chen Wei thought she was finally going to settle down.

But the next second, after some rustling sounds, she suddenly flipped over and straddled him.

"Zhao Xinlian! What are you doing!"
