Chapter 349 - 342: Loving Each Other IX
The roundtable meeting ended even later than Leng Yichen had imagined. When he returned home, the house was already pitch black. Leng Yichen couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed. Previously, if he came home late, Bai Yiran would usually wait for him. Even if she eventually fell asleep on the sofa, she would stubbornly wait.
It seemed this little girl was really angry. Leng Yichen had been too busy this past month, spending more time with others than with Bai Yiran. He also knew how much Bai Yiran was looking forward to their Christmas date. It was normal for Bai Yiran to be angry after he bailed on her at the last minute.
Leng Yichen quickly headed upstairs, thinking that maybe Bai Yiran hadn’t fallen asleep yet and was waiting for him in the room.
However, when Leng Yichen found that Bai Yiran wasn’t in the bedroom either, he suddenly remembered what his leader said during the meeting.
"Let me tell you, women are petty creatures. Don’t be fooled by their gentle and lovely demeanor in daily conversations and actions. That’s only because you haven’t angered them. Once they get angry, the consequences are truly unimaginable!"
At this moment, Leng Yichen seemed to understand what his leader meant.
The night was deep, and Bai Yiran had already fallen asleep. Because her original room was given to her uncle as a study, she could only share a room with Cheng Shishi tonight. The two sisters hadn’t been together for a long time, so when they finally reunited, they chatted for a long time until they fell asleep near midnight.
A phone ring sounded in the silent night. Bai Yiran turned over and reached for her phone with her eyes closed, groggily answering the call.
"Hello..."
Hearing Bai Yiran’s sleepy voice over the phone, Leng Yichen felt slightly relieved, at least knowing she was safe. But the next moment, he frowned deeply, "Bai Yiran, where are you?"
"Grandma’s house..." Bai Yiran was too sleepy. After mumbling those three words, she hung up and fell back into a deep sleep.
In the morning, as Chen Qing just opened her eyes, she saw a figure lying at her feet, which startled her into sitting up abruptly. She found that the person lying at her feet was actually her granddaughter, Cheng Shishi.
Chen Qing nudged Cheng Shishi, "Silly girl, why aren’t you sleeping in your own bed?"
Already feeling it was cruel to be kicked out of her own bedroom in the middle of the night, Cheng Shishi now found herself rudely awakened by her grandmother’s foot. She was irked, snatched Chen Qing’s quilt, rolled herself up like a cocoon, and turned over to continue sleeping.
"What’s with this girl?" Chen Qing grumbled while getting dressed and getting out of bed. "Did you have a fight with Yiran?"
Bai Yiran was still asleep, vaguely feeling a hand stroking her back and forth.
"Cheng Shishi,..." Bai Yiran mumbled, brushing off the hand on her body.
Suddenly, Bai Yiran realized something was wrong. How could Cheng Shishi’s hand be so big and heavy? Startled, Bai Yiran instantly woke up completely, only to find that the person lying next to her was not Cheng Shishi, but somehow had become Leng Yichen!
"Why are you here!" Bai Yiran sat up suddenly. Leng Yichen was wearing the white shirt from yesterday, clearly having come over immediately after finding out Bai Yiran wasn’t home, without even changing his clothes.
"Yiran! Are you awake yet? What’s going on with you and Shishi? I saw her sleeping in my bed! Did you two have a fight..." Chen Qing asked as she directly opened the door to Cheng Shishi’s room.
Bai Yiran, "..."
Leng Yichen, "..."
Chen Qing, "..."
