Chapter 125 - 103: My Water Heater Is a Little Broken, Waiting for You to Come Back and Fix It

"Oh."

Chen Xin responded, then turned and went back into the room, handing her the bathrobe the hotel provided.

"Thank you."

Liang Yan took the bathrobe to the bathroom, changed out of her clothes, then came out and sat on the sofa.

Xu Yun had clearly gone in first, but for some reason, he still hadn’t come out.

Now, it was just Chen Xin and her in the living room. The atmosphere was a bit awkward.

Liang Yan took the initiative to break the silence. She smiled and asked tentatively, "Are you Xu Yun’s girlfriend?"

"Ah? No, I’m not."

Chen Xin replied, "I’m just his friend. A female friend."

"The kind you haven’t slept with?"

(⊙o⊙)...

Hearing this, Chen Xin’s face flushed red and she shook her head. "No, no! Our relationship is completely platonic."

...

Liang Yan hadn’t expected that answer.

’Sharing a room, and Xu Yun could actually restrain himself from making a move on a woman with such a great figure and looks?’

Based on Xu Yun’s rough treatment of her just now, she certainly didn’t think he was a "good guy."

In the bedroom, Xu Yun had changed his clothes long ago. The reason he hadn’t come out was that he was on a video call with Li Jinshu.

While he had been out having fun these past few days, things back home hadn’t been idle.

Li Jinshu was now treating Xu Yun’s business completely as her own.

She had strived for perfection with the company’s design proposal, staying up for two nights until she finally came up with a result she was very satisfied with.

Su Mu had also seen it and was very pleased.

Only then did she send it to Xu Yun for his review, casually mentioning how hard she had worked the past two days.

To get some private space, Li Jinshu had lied to Su Mu after work, saying she was going to a gathering with colleagues and would be back late.

In reality, she had secretly gone to Xu Yun’s apartment and was video-calling him from his bed.

Xu Yun didn’t really have any requirements for the company’s design, as long as it wasn’t all pink.

But when he saw the mock-ups Li Jinshu sent, he was genuinely satisfied. She had really put her heart into it.

Xu Yun praised her thoroughly and threw in some sweet nothings for good measure.

Since they were both alone in private settings, Li Jinshu was naturally dressed in something bold and revealing for the video call.

As they talked, she would deliberately lower the camera angle or pan to more... alluring spots.

Fortunately, Xu Yun had just sated his desires, otherwise she really would have lit his fire.

After Li Jinshu’s reluctant, drawn-out goodbyes, the two finally hung up.

Although they weren’t a couple, their behavior was unconsciously becoming just like that of a real one.

This was especially true for Li Jinshu. She felt that since Xu Yun had given her the passcode to his apartment, he considered her one of his own, tacitly acknowledging her as the mistress of the house.

So after hanging up, she wandered leisurely around Xu Yun’s spacious flat in her sexy sleepwear, barefoot, as if patrolling her own territory.

Then she sat alone on the balcony, gazing at the starry sky.

’Sigh, I wonder when Xu Yun will be back.’

’And that woman traveling with him... I wonder if she’ll try to seduce him tonight, or maybe sneak into his bed in the middle of the night.’

’Knowing Xu Yun’s character, he probably won’t be able to resist the temptation.’

The thought of it depressed her.

Just as Xu Yun finished his call with Li Jinshu and was about to go out, he received a WeChat message from Su Mu.

[Su Mu: Having so much fun with your blind date that you can’t bear to come back?]

Xu Yun chuckled.

[It’s only been two days. What, does Sister Su miss me?]

[Su Mu: My water heater is on the fritz. I’m waiting for you to come back and fix it.]

The corners of Xu Yun’s mouth turned up slightly.

[Xu Yun: Just hang on a little longer. I’ll be back soon.]

[Su Mu: You’d better hurry, or I might find someone else to fix it.]

[Xu Yun: ...]

’Well, now. She’s actually threatening me?’

Xu Yun put his phone away, opened the door, and walked out, surprised to see only Liang Yan.

When Liang Yan saw Xu Yun finally emerge, she was leaning against the sofa. She tilted her head, a smile on her face as she watched him approach.

She chuckled. "What, scared? Afraid to come out and face me?"

"Where’s Chen Xin?" Xu Yun asked, curious.

"She went downstairs to buy some clothes for me."

Liang Yan said, "I can’t exactly go home in a bathrobe, can I? If my husband found out, he’d kill me."

"Serves you right!"

Xu Yun said flatly, "Women who cheat on their husbands deserve to die."

"..." Liang Yan was speechless.

’Unbelievable. We hook up, and now he acts like he doesn’t even know me?’
