Born as a space beast, Shi Chu possessed a strong sense of self-preservation and was inherently selfish. She revelled in luxury, indulging in fine food and clothing. She rejected phrases like “su...
Chapter 1378 The Master is in Love with the Bandit (18)
Shi Chu managed to regain some of his conscience and consoled Zhou Xingyu, "Don't worry, what I just said was an extremely special case, it's rare. Most people who sleepwalk just walk around and don't do anything serious, and they can easily be discovered and stopped by their families."
Zhou Xingyu still looked uneasy when he heard her words. He forced a smile at Shi Chu and said, "Brother Shi, if I did something bad while sleepwalking, how can I make up for it?"
Shi Chu choked up, and had a feeling that he was about to tell her what happened that night. She suddenly felt like she had lifted a rock and dropped it on her own foot, but she couldn't stop him from talking, so she had to bite the bullet and ask him, "Brother Zhou, what bad things did you do in your sleepwalking?"
Zhou Xingyu pursed his lips, looked around, and found that he and Shi Chu were the only ones in the wine shop. He lowered his voice and said seriously: "Brother Shi, I told you this because I trust you. Can you please keep it a secret for me? This is also for the reputation of innocent people..."
Shi Chu nodded with a tingling scalp and said, "Of course, I will keep it a secret for Brother Zhou. What does Brother Zhou want to tell me?"
Zhou Xingyu swallowed nervously. Although he decided to speak out and seek Shi Chu's help, he still felt it was difficult to say it. However, he had no other choice but to suppress his inner shame and said to Shi Chu, "Brother Shi, I found that I may have sleepwalked one night and flirted with an innocent woman... But I can't find the woman I spent the night with, so I can't be responsible for her. Brother Shi, do you have any good ideas to help me find her? What if she has a hard time or even commits suicide because of my flirting? "
Shi Chu felt that she had really done something wrong, but she had to be responsible for undoing the wrong she had done, so she said dryly, "Maybe things didn't end so badly? Did you... flirt with that woman and leave her with nothing?"
"No, she left nothing behind, so I couldn't find her." Zhou Xingyu shook his head.
"If she was really in a bad situation, she should have stayed and let you take responsibility. After all, she had physical contact with you. If she was an ordinary woman, it would be impossible for her to just leave like that... So I guess that woman should not be an ordinary woman. Maybe she doesn't blame you?" Shi Chu tried his best to alleviate Zhou Xingyu's guilt.
"Really?" Zhou Xingyu seemed to be thinking about something. "But after something like this happened, no matter who the woman was, she couldn't possibly not care, right? There must be a rule for us to solve this matter together, but she just disappeared like that, and I can't calm down."
When Shi Chu saw him so troubled and conflicted, she suddenly felt that she should go to him at night to "solve the problem". This would help him resolve his worries and stop him from feeling uneasy and guilty.
So Shi Chu comforted him a few more words, which made him feel better.
Originally Zhou Xingyu wanted to drown his sorrows in alcohol, but when he thought about what happened that night after he was drunk, he didn't dare to get drunk. After drinking a few glasses, he said goodbye to Shi Chu and left.
When it was dark and windy at night, Shi Chu changed into women's clothes and went to Zhou's house again.
Zhou Xingyu was not drunk this time, so when the arrow first fell on his roof, he noticed it immediately. He stood up suddenly, drew out the sword on his table, and shouted: "Who?!"
Shi Chu came down from the rooftop, knocked on his door, and said, "It's me, open the door."
When Zhou Xingyu heard a clear and pleasant female voice, an idea flashed in his mind. He suddenly thought of the woman with whom he had a romantic night before. His face suddenly felt hot and the face in his hands almost fell to the ground.
He was instantly at a loss, and walked to the door with his hands and feet clumsily. He was so flustered that he couldn't control his hands, and he pulled the bolt several times before he could open the door.
Sure enough, there was a slim woman with half her face covered standing outside the door. Her eyes were clear and full of stars, as if there were infinite stars in them.
When Zhou Xingyu saw her, his pupils dilated instantly and he opened his mouth, but couldn't speak.
Shi Chu saw his dazed look, chuckled, stretched out a slender finger, pressed it against Zhou Xingyu's chest, slightly pushed him back into the room, and whispered, "Idiot, you won't let me in?"
Zhou Xingyu had her fingers pressed against his chest, and his heart was beating so violently that it seemed like it wanted to break through his chest and jump out. He could only hear his own violent heartbeat and could not hear what Shi Chu said at all. So he was pushed into the room by Shi Chu in a daze.
"Are you awake?" Shi Chu's hand was no longer on his chest, but pinched his cheek instead.
After she pinched him like this, Zhou Xingyu finally regained his senses. After he realized who Shi Chu was, his face suddenly turned red as if blood was dripping out. He stammered, "It was you...that night...I, I, I'm sorry..."
He tried to apologize to Shi Chu incoherently, but Shi Chu knew that she was the culprit and the man was innocent, so she leaned forward and kissed his soft lips, saying, "It's okay, I did it willingly, I don't blame you."
Zhou Xingyu was suddenly kissed by her, and instantly all the blood in his body rushed to his face, making his face feel like it was burning, and his rationality, which had just returned, was almost burned away.
He took a few deep breaths and managed to calm down. He said shyly but firmly, "Girl, although you didn't blame me, I still have to be responsible for you. I wonder where you live? How old are you? When is a good time for me to find someone to propose marriage?"
Shi Chu's eyes widened. He never expected that when he wanted to spend another night of romance with him, he wanted to propose marriage to him? How could this be possible? How could he bring up such a depressing topic at a time like this? He should just enjoy the love between a man and a woman to the fullest!
"No, no, I don't want you to be responsible. In fact, I don't want to get married, but I like you very much, so having a beautiful night like this occasionally is enough. Let's not talk about those worldly etiquettes, okay?" Shi Chu moved closer to Zhou Xingyu, and whispered seductively against his cheek.
Zhou Xingyu was so aroused by her that he lost his mind for a while, and his heart was agitated. However, as a martial artist, he had enough self-control and soon recovered. He suppressed his excitement and said disapprovingly, "This is not good for you... Your family will not agree with you... Doing this with me... with me..."
His face was red and he couldn't say the rest of the words. How could Shi Chu not hear what he was going to say? So he comforted him and said, "Don't worry, I have no family since I was a child. I have been wandering alone for a long time. I have never been impatient to abide by any rules of etiquette. I like you so I want to spend the night with you. Don't think too much, okay?"
