Chapter 1000: Go to His Room
Yan Yan seemed to think she was unwilling, and continued, "Forget it, go to bed early, good night."
Then, the phone emitted a busy signal.
Yun Qiqi turned off her phone and set it aside, initially not wanting to bother with him.
But lying on the bed staring at the ceiling for a while, she couldn’t fall asleep, her mind constantly replaying the peculiarity in his voice.
After hesitating for a few minutes, she sat up, threw on a jacket, and stepped out in her slippers.
After all, he was her boss, and her salary for this month hadn’t been paid yet. If anything happened, it’d be troublesome.
Just as she stepped out, Yun Qiqi remembered something and went back to grab her bunny bag.
With Secretary Qin’s reminder, she no longer easily left her rabbit bag out of sight.
Though the place seemed heavily guarded, you never know if a room might get broken into.
After grabbing the bag, she walked to the room next door and knocked on the door.
She remembered correctly that Wang Ma told her this should be Yan Yan’s bedroom today.
She waited for a while, the hallway was quiet with only the sound of rain softly falling.
Then the door opened, the man seemingly just climbed out of bed, standing by the door, his hair in disarray, a stunningly beautiful face within the darkness that was mesmerizing.
The black silk robe he wore seemed even more slack, the neckline revealing down to his waist.
Wearing it seemed no different than not wearing anything.
Yun Qiqi didn’t expect to see such a striking scene upon opening the door, her ears blushing involuntarily.
It took a while before she came to her senses and softly asked, "Are you okay..."
Yan Yan lowered his head to look at the petite and cute young girl in front of him, his gaze burning, and spoke, "Little Gua, why did you come over?"
His voice still low and hoarse, his gaze towards her carried a hint of vulnerability, as if seeing a lifeline in his darkest moment.
It was Yun Qiqi’s first time seeing him like this; the allure of beauty was slightly pulled back in her mind, her lips pressed together, her gaze complex: "Didn’t you say... you had a nightmare?"
Yan Yan was silent for a moment, then stepped aside: "Come in."
Inside, Yun Qiqi found that the bedroom lights were off, but her eyesight had always been good, she easily saw the decor inside.
It was completely different from what she imagined; she thought a young man’s room should be like Shi Yunshen’s, filled with hard lines, the main tones should be deep blue or grey-black.
Yet Yan Yan’s... although the core construction was like that, the floor was covered with soft, plush carpets, a few plush pillows on the floor-to-ceiling windows, and several white shelves on the desk holding various books.
And many things that seemed to be used by girls.
She surveyed for a while and realized Yan Yan hadn’t spoken.
Turning back, found that at some point, the man had already gotten onto the bed, now leaning back against the bedhead, staring at her with intense eyes, the vulnerability in his eyes growing ever more.
Perhaps it was too dark, but she could even see a gentle yet painful expression within his gaze.
Looking at him, an unspeakable emotion spread from Yun Qiqi’s heart.
Thinking of him saying he’d had nightmares, she recalled when she had nightmares herself, she needed someone by her side too.
So she walked over, sat on the edge of his bed, expressionless, softly saying, "You sleep, I’ll stay here until you fall asleep, then I’ll leave."
Upon hearing her usual calm and indifferent voice, Yan Yan’s lips twitched slightly, seeming somewhat upset.
He didn’t lie down to sleep but asked her, "Does my room look nice?"
Apparently noticing her earlier assessing gaze.
