It was welded to the door, so tightly that it fit perfectly and couldn't be turned even slightly.
Given Xia Che's physical abilities, even with his meridians sealed, his strength is still considerable. If it were an ordinary lock, he could probably unscrew it with just a couple of twists.
But there's absolutely nothing we can do about this lock.
"It really broke."
Xia Che sighed and touched the door of the room.
He remembered that the door was quite expensive, was it made of agarwood or rosewood?
After all, the Xia family was a super-powerful family at the time. Even if they bought a house casually, the furniture inside was the best, otherwise it would be too low-class.
Xia Che couldn't bear to kick down such an expensive door. He didn't have much money left, and if the door broke, he would have to spend money to replace it, and he certainly wouldn't be able to buy one as good as this one.
There's no other way.
After much thought, I still couldn't come up with a solution.
Fortunately, each room has a toilet, so there's no need to worry about being locked inside and having trouble getting up at night.
"that……"
Xia Che scratched his head; it seemed he was destined to spend the night with Chu Yuying.
To be honest, Xia Che was wondering what tone to use to explain to Chu Yuying so that she would feel that he had no ulterior motives.
After thinking it over and over, Xia Che couldn't come up with a good excuse. Just as he was about to give up and say that since he couldn't get out anyway, he might as well just sleep and do whatever he wanted, he found that Chu Yuying had already disappeared from his sight.
Where are they?
Xia Che paused for a moment, then scanned the room and saw a white, unidentified creature bending down and rummaging through the refrigerator.
"Huh? Did you just say something?"
Noticing Xia Che calling her, Chu Yuying, with a piece of bread in her mouth and a yogurt she had just found in her hand, looked up from in front of the refrigerator: "What is it?"
"You... I mean, we probably can't go out tonight, and we can only get a locksmith to come tomorrow. Aren't you worried?"
Xia Che's lips twitched. How come this girl seems to be acting like nothing happened?
Please.
I'm a blond guy!
At least show some fear!
Why be nervous?
Chu Yuying tilted her head, a slight smile playing on her lips, but quickly returned to her original expression. Feigning surprise, she said, "Little blondie, instead of this, why don't you explain to me why there's a refrigerator in your room? Are you deliberately hiding good things? Keeping the good for yourself and leaving the bad for us? Why don't Xiaoyue and I have one in our rooms?"
That's half true and half false.
Chu Yuying had long been mentally prepared for the prospect of sleeping with Xia Che, and was even a little excited.
But the resentment is also real.
Why don't they have refrigerators in their rooms?
You bastard who hid your stuff!
"If you want one, why don't you just buy one yourselves..."
Xia Che sighed helplessly, wondering how this little brat's brain circuits worked.
Is now the time to care about these things?
"No way, buying a refrigerator is too expensive. One is enough for the kitchen."
Chu Yuying stuck out her tongue, quickly finished the bread slice in her mouth, and then lay down again to rummage through the refrigerator for any other delicious food.
"Fine... eat if you want, but remember to check the date when you eat it. I've forgotten what I bought, and I don't have any antidiarrheal medicine in my room if I eat something expired."
Xia Che shook his head helplessly.
Lishiquyuan is a luxury residential community, so naturally every house is equipped with the highest level of amenities. Even a simple room there is about the size of a one-bedroom apartment, and it has everything you need.
but……
"This girl really doesn't treat me like an outsider at all... She even dares to use this position? It reminds me of a scene I watched before."
Xia Che touched his nose, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
For example, getting stuck in the washing machine, or getting stuck in the refrigerator, etc...
But the fact that Chu Yuying dared to use this posture proved that she was indeed very confident in her character, which made Xia Che immediately repent for his filthy thoughts just now.
My apologies, my apologies...
"What?! Expired ones too?"
Chu Yuying was startled and quickly picked up the bread she had just eaten. She glanced at the date and thankfully, the bread wasn't expired. Otherwise, with the door lock broken and no antidiarrheal medication in the room...
That would be a real ordeal.
"Alright, if you're hungry, just eat whatever you want. As long as it's not expired, you can eat whatever you like."
After a night of tossing and turning, Xia Che was exhausted. As he relaxed, he felt a wave of drowsiness wash over him. He waved his hand and walked to the wardrobe, rummaging through the spare blankets.
Fortunately, Chu Yuying arrived late, and the two of them had already taken a shower. Otherwise, taking a shower would have been... well, it would have been a bit awkward.
At the very least, Xia Che couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't have any filthy thoughts when he saw Chu Yuying wrapped in a bathrobe.
Are you going to sleep?
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuying turned around, her red eyes flashing with an inexplicable light, lost in thought.
"Okay, I'll sleep on the sofa tonight, and you can sleep in the bed."
Xia Che found a spare blanket, shook it out briefly, and then carried it to the sofa. After lying down, he covered himself with the blanket. "As for the door lock, I will have a locksmith come tomorrow. It just so happens that Brother Yue is free tomorrow, so he can stay home and keep an eye on things."
Xia Che really doesn't dare to let strangers into his home if no one is home.
Although locksmiths are registered with the police station and generally no one dares to cause trouble, Xia Che never gambles on human nature.
With Brother Yue there and Wen Chenlu right next door, he felt at ease.
"Huh? Sleeping on the sofa? That's so uncomfortable!"
Chu Yuying immediately pouted. She had imagined the scene of the two of them sleeping in the same bed countless times...
They even devised a plan to subtly provoke the blond-haired guy.
So Xia Che doesn't sleep in the bed?
Oh shit……
Since the door lock is broken, you might as well break the sofa too!
For the first time, Chu Yuying began to dislike the amenities of the luxury residential complex. Where in a normal person's room is there room for a sofa?
His grand plan...
It's been ruined by capitalism!
"It's okay, it'll be fine for one night. It's much better than the conditions I used to experience when I spent all night in internet cafes."
Although Xia Che is somewhat sensitive to sleeping in unfamiliar beds, the situation is special after all.
As for sleeping with Chu Yuying?
He never even considered it.
Firstly, he considered that Chu Yuying was his friend. Given their current relationship and the fact that there were two quilts, he figured that if he made the suggestion, Chu Yuying would most likely not refuse.
As for the second reason...
Xia Che always kept his mission in mind.
[Only by making the female protagonists in the comics see the true colors of the scumbag men, thus sealing their hearts and locking away love, can they return to the real world.]
This isn't just one task, it's two.
It's one thing to recognize a scumbag's true colors, but the second one requires sealing your heart and locking away love.
This is precisely why Xia Che never falls for the heroines in comics, and even if he has the chance, he pretends not to see it.
