Chapter 56 No quilt, and the door is locked!
In the bathroom, Yun Zheng lay comfortably in the bathtub. The warm water flowed over her skin, but failed to dispel the tension in her heart.
She quickly took a shower, changed into her conservative pajamas, fixed her wet hair in front of the mirror, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down.
Fu Linghe was sitting on the edge of the bed. When he heard the sound of the bathroom door opening, he stood up subconsciously.
Yun Zheng walked out with a bath towel draped over her shoulders and water dripping from her hair. She lowered her head slightly to avoid Fu Linghe's gaze.
Under the light, her cheeks were flushed with the blush from bathing, making her look even more charming.
"Where is the hair dryer? I want to blow dry my hair, but I don't see one." Yun Zheng looked up at the man in front of her and spoke in a low voice.
"You sit down first, I'll get it for you." Fu Linghe said as he quickly walked into the bathroom and took out the hair dryer.
Yun Zheng was about to take it from Fu Linghe, but the man had no intention of handing the hair dryer to her. Instead, he bent down and plugged it in.
He turned on the hot air of the hair dryer, tested the temperature on his hands, and then patiently helped Yun Zheng blow dry her hair.
Practice makes perfect. Fu Linghe had no idea how many times he had helped Yun Zheng blow her hair, so his movements were naturally very skillful.
Warm air blew out from the hair dryer, gently brushing Yun Zheng's hair.
Fu Linghe's movements were extremely careful, his slender fingers moving through her hair, combing every strand into a smooth and neat shape.
Yun Zheng sat in front of the dressing table. When she looked up, she could see Fu Linghe's focused expression in the mirror.
The buzzing sound of the hair dryer echoed in the quiet room, but Yun Zheng's heart became more and more flustered because of this intimate action.
Her cheeks were getting hotter, not only because of the heat from the hair dryer, but more because of the strong presence of the man next to her.
She tried to let her thoughts drift away, but the faint woody scent of Fu Linghe kept lingering at the tip of her nose, leaving her nowhere to escape.
Fortunately, Fu Linghe quickly helped her dry her hair and turned off the hair dryer.
"Go to bed early. I'm going to take a shower. I'll turn off the lights later." After Fu Linghe said this to Yun Zheng, he went into the bathroom with a hair dryer.
Yun Zheng sat alone in front of the dressing table, staring blankly at herself in the mirror. It took her a long time to come to her senses and get up and go to bed.
She was just lying there, unable to fall asleep at all.
Listening to the sound of water in the bathroom, her mind couldn't help but drift away, how could she sleep?
After more than ten minutes, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped abruptly.
Fu Linghe walked out of the bathroom, with steam enveloping his tall body.
He casually wiped his hair with a towel, and the water droplets slid down his tight abdominal muscles and disappeared under the low-waisted bath towel, looking like a picture of a handsome man coming out of the bath!
Yun Zheng was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling, her mind full of messy thoughts.
Hearing the sound of the bathroom door opening, she subconsciously turned her head, and the sight of it almost made her stop breathing.
Fu Linghe was standing there with an upright posture. The blush after bathing had not yet faded from his face, and his deep eyes were even more charming under the light.
Fu Linghe pretended to walk towards the bed casually, wiping the remaining water droplets on his body with a towel as he walked. Every movement was full of unique charm.
Walking to the bed, he deliberately bent down to tidy up the quilt for Yun Zheng, and his broad back and tight muscle lines were displayed to Yun Zheng without reservation.
Yun Zheng swallowed subconsciously, turned her head stiffly and looked away from Fu Linghe.
But these eyes just wouldn't listen to her, and she couldn't help wanting to look at him!
"It's getting late, go to bed early." Fu Linghe's low voice slowly entered Yun Zheng's ears, making her unable to stop.
She nodded, quickly lay down, and pulled the quilt up to cover herself tightly.
Fu Linghe admitted that he was deliberately seducing Yun Zheng just now, but unfortunately she did not take the bait.
He had no choice but to walk towards the black leather sofa not far away.
It is already late autumn and it is gradually getting cold at night. It is impossible to sleep without a blanket.
The room was clearly equipped with floor heating, but strangely enough, the whole room was freezing cold tonight.
Fu Linghe stood by the sofa and watched for a while before getting up and searching the closet for quilts and blankets.
He clearly remembered that the bottom cabinet in the cloakroom was where quilts and blankets were kept, but Fu Linghe searched almost the entire cloakroom and couldn't find a single quilt!
Fu Linghe was very sure that he was not mistaken. The only possibility was that the quilt and blanket inside were taken away by someone.
Of course, Fu Linghe is not a fool, and he doesn't need to think about who did this.
He shook his head helplessly, turned and walked out of the cloakroom, preparing to go to another room to get a quilt to sleep on the sofa.
But it turned out that Fu Linghe was too naive. The door had been locked from the outside and he couldn't open it at all.
Yun Zheng listened to the noise at the door and sat up from the bed. She looked at Fu Linghe standing there in confusion and said softly, "Where are you going?"
Fu Linghe heard Yun Zheng's voice and turned to look at her, his tone still filled with helplessness, "They took away the quilt in the cloakroom. I wanted to go outside to get another one, but the door was locked from the outside, so I couldn't get out."
Upon hearing this, Yun Zheng immediately got out of bed, walked barefoot on the soft carpet, walked to the door, and put her hand on the doorknob in disbelief, moving it gently.
But just as Fu Linghe said, the door had been locked from the outside. Unless they opened it with a key from outside, the two of them could not get out at all.
Fu Linghe glanced down at Yun Zheng's bare feet and frowned slightly. "The ground is cold, go back to bed quickly."
Yun Zheng didn't move. She looked up at Fu Linghe steadily, her voice calm with a hint of helplessness. "Then what are you going to do?"
"I have my own way. You should go back to bed first. It would be bad if you catch a cold." Fu Linghe could only soften his voice and coax her patiently.
He knew Yun Zheng's temper very well. If he confronted her forcefully now, it would be like hitting a stone with an egg.
Yun Zheng stood stubbornly beside Fu Linghe for a while before she obediently got up and lay back on the bed.
Fu Linghe knew that he couldn't go out tonight, so he could only go to the cloakroom to find two relatively thick clothes to cover himself.
This was the best solution he could think of. If he did nothing, he would have to freeze until dawn tonight.
Fu Linghe quickly brought out a pile of clothes from the cloakroom, most of which were relatively thick clothes such as cotton jackets and woolen coats.
Fu Linghe picked out two pieces as pillows and covered himself with the rest, curling up pitifully on the sofa.
