Chapter 1772: Embarrassed Chu Xiaoran
Chapter 1772: Embarrassed Chu Xiaoran
"Why did you come over?"
Holding a warm, delicate body in his arms, Xiao Zheng asked somewhat dryly.
Upon hearing that, Chu Xiaoran replied in a voice as soft as a mosquito’s buzz, "I... I just missed you, so I came to see you..."
Missed me, so you came to see me?
Then you didn’t need to wear such a skimpy nightgown!
Although Xiao Zheng couldn’t see what was under the covers, he could clearly feel Chu Xiaoran’s voluptuous and long beautiful legs pressing against him without reservation, making him feel a faint sense of excitement.
He glanced down and the view from her neckline made his heart suffer even more.
"Could you not get so close to me?"
Xiao Zheng spoke with a face full of helplessness.
However, upon hearing his words, Chu Xiaoran directly pressed half of her body onto him: "What’s wrong with you? Are you starting to dislike me now? Otherwise, why would you want me to stay away from you?"
After she spoke, a hint of grievance showed in her big, soulful eyes.
Xiao Zheng inwardly laughed bitterly and said, "You’re misunderstanding, how could I possibly dislike you? It’s just that I’m the kind of person who performs but doesn’t sell my body. You’re too close, I’m afraid something might happen to you."
Hearing how bluntly he spoke, Chu Xiaoran couldn’t help but feel a little shy inside.
Yet she still didn’t back down, instead clinging tightly to Xiao Zheng and saying, "I... I’m not afraid..."
Auntie!
You’re not afraid, but I am!
Xiao Zheng kept lamenting in his heart. If he’d known something like this would happen tonight, he would have just stayed at the Sky Net headquarters to rest. It’s not that he doesn’t like Chu Xiaoran, but since Leng Ruobing sleeps in the room next door, any noise might wake her up, and then he’d be in trouble.
With no alternative, Xiao Zheng could only pretend to be half-asleep, yawning as he said, "But I’m really tired now, what should I do? Why don’t you wait until I sleep a bit, and let’s talk tomorrow, okay?"
"No way! I want to sleep with you tonight!" Chu Xiaoran insisted.
With Xiao Zheng hearing that, he was left with no choice and replied feebly, "Alright then, do as you please. If you want to sleep here, go ahead.
But let’s be clear upfront, no taking advantage of me while I’m asleep, understand?"
Upon hearing his words, Chu Xiaoran grumpily slapped his chest, "I’m not a hooligan, why would I take advantage of you? I just don’t want to sleep alone, don’t overthink it."
"That’s good, make sure to remember what you said." Xiao Zheng replied with satisfaction, "And don’t misunderstand, it’s not that I don’t trust you, it’s just that my charm is overwhelming, you understand."
"Understand, my foot! You’re always so frivolous!" Chu Xiaoran said blushing, "Didn’t you say you were tired and wanted to sleep? So why do you still have so much to say?"
Hearing her, Xiao Zheng quickly closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
Though he truly wanted to sleep now, lying with a delicate body in his arms made it hard to fall asleep despite feeling sleepy.
After reciting the Calming Incantation for who knows how long, Xiao Zheng was surprised to find that Chu Xiaoran had fallen asleep before him. Seeing the sweet sleeping posture of the girl in his arms, he couldn’t help but sigh.
After tucking her in tightly, Xiao Zheng soon fell asleep as well.
The two of them slept until naturally waking up.
When Xiao Zheng opened his eyes, he found Chu Xiaoran had already disappeared.
"This girl, she got up so early."
Xiao Zheng yawned, realizing it was just before nine in the morning.
He initially wanted to indulge in some more sleep but was interrupted by the sound of a door opening before he could close his eyes again. Seeing Leng Ruobing enter, Xiao Zheng opened his eyes.
"You’re awake."
Leng Ruobing said.
Hearing her, Xiao Zheng couldn’t continue lying in bed, so he sat up and said, "Yes, I just woke up. Why are you up so early today? Are you going to the office again?"
"Not necessarily, if you don’t want me to go to the office, then I won’t." Leng Ruobing replied, "These days, there isn’t anything important, even if I don’t go to work, it won’t matter."
"Really? Well, how about we go out together for the next couple of days?" Xiao Zheng suggested.
Due to recent events, he had promised to stay home to accompany Leng Ruobing, but ended up being caught in various situations, so he wanted to make up for it.
"We’ll discuss it once you’re up, Xiao Ran and I have already prepared breakfast." Leng Ruobing said.
Xiao Zheng kept it simple, nodded, and quickly got dressed.
After he washed up, he found Leng Ruobing and Chu Xiaoran already seated in the dining room having porridge. The aroma of simmered millet porridge filled the air, and a few small dishes on the table immediately whetted his appetite.
Chu Xiaoran had already served a bowl of porridge for Xiao Zheng, who didn’t hesitate as he sat down and quickly started eating. Slurping, he consumed the entire bowl in an instant.
"Slow down, there’s plenty more in the pot." Leng Ruobing said, worried that his wild eating style might cause him to choke.
Hearing her, Xiao Zheng put down his bowl and chopsticks with a smile, "I’m fine, it’s just that drinking porridge this way feels gratifying."
"Gratifying, huh? Do you think you’re drinking wine or something?" Chu Xiaoran couldn’t help but laugh, "By the way, Xiao Zheng, do you want another bowl of porridge?"
Xiao Zheng didn’t refuse, so Chu Xiaoran took his bowl and served him another helping of millet porridge.
Taking the porridge, Xiao Zheng thanked her and then asked, "By the way, did you two discuss any plans? Where do you want to go for the next couple of days?"
Hearing his question, Leng Ruobing shook her head and said, "I don’t know, you two can decide."
She’s always indifferent about food and entertainment plans, as to her, simply being with Xiao Zheng is enough. Xiao Zheng was always easygoing about such matters, so their gazes turned to Chu Xiaoran.
Feeling their gazes, Chu Xiaoran thought seriously for a moment before saying, "Since my cousin has a couple of free days, why don’t we go to the neighboring Yunhai City?"
"A soccer match is taking place there tomorrow, it’s a friendly match between the Zhonghai Team and Yunhai Team, the game will definitely be thrilling. If you have no objections, let’s go to Yunhai City."
Chu Xiaoran was indeed a super football enthusiast, well-informed about all the big and small soccer events.
"I have no objections."
"Neither do I."
After exchanging a glance, Xiao Zheng and Leng Ruobing both happily agreed to Chu Xiaoran’s decision.
