The room was already dimly lit, and when Jing Zhe reached the bed, he could only see a blurry figure lying on the bed with his back to him through a sliver of light.
Oh, she's even shy now!
Jing Zhe looked at the motionless figure lying on its side, and the next moment he reached out and scooped it up!
Huh!
Given Jing Zhe's current ability to measure sizes at any time, he immediately realized something was wrong after just one scoop.
"Owner, how come the food has shrunk in the time it takes to eat?"
"..."
The dark figure on the bed trembled twice, but did not turn around or reply, and continued to lie there.
Jing Zhe was stunned, wondering if he had misjudged the situation.
With a pragmatic and meticulous attitude, he stretched out both hands again, one above the other, and scooped up another handful.
"..."
Now, Jing Zhe was certain.
Not only has it shrunk, but its shape has also changed!
Although cornbread is cute, his is steamed bun!
At this point, it would be foolish for Jing Zhe not to know what had happened, but he was now somewhat inclined to play dumb.
Afraid that the person in bed would notice, he didn't do anything else agitated. Instead, he said casually, "Master, I came here to tell you that I've been traveling all day and have to leave again early tomorrow morning. You should get some rest tonight!"
He then prepared to get up.
Unexpectedly, the dark figure on the bed seemed to suddenly muster up courage and reached out to grab him.
Jing Zhe felt inexplicably flustered.
Too many suitors are a calamity.
Although he had figured out that he had to accept the woman he had flirted with, the key question was that he hadn't flirted with this one.
They've met quite a few times, but he only has some primal male urges at most; there's really no other kind of feeling between them, so he's a bit conflicted for the time being.
That's not good.
Even if something is to happen, it can't be now.
But I'm afraid that if I'm too direct and obvious, she'll find out.
He deliberately patted his lower back and then pinched it hard.
The dark figure let out a soft moan, seemingly losing all its strength, and its hands fell limp.
"Alright, Master, you should go to sleep early. I'll go back and sleep early too! We have a long life ahead of us!"
After saying that, he patted the shadowy figure a few more times, then slowly walked away.
After he closed the door, the room fell into darkness.
The shadowy figure sat up, sighed, and lay down again.
...
Jing Zhe arrived at the door of another guest room, took a few deep breaths, and after calming down, he pushed open Wang Yingqiu's door.
Why did you take so long to arrive?
Wang Yingqiu was sitting on the bed, speaking softly.
That's it, they went to Bailu's room just now, and they even attacked her...
"I didn't come over because Hanhan couldn't fall asleep."
This task is now left to the simpleton.
He then sat down on the bed and started touching her directly.
"Hey~ Why are you in such a hurry?"
Wang Yingqiu gave a coquettish laugh, her hand already on Jing Zhe's mischievous hand, but she couldn't bear to push it away.
Jing Zhe rubbed it for a while before reluctantly moving it away.
"Yes, this is the steamed bun I want!"
"???"
Wang Yingqiu was completely confused: "What are you talking about?"
"Uh, it's nothing."
Jing Zhe thought for a moment, then changed the subject, saying, "Who exactly is this Lin Qingshan? How does the garden owner know him? Hmph, judging from the tone of his voice, they seem to have a pretty good relationship?"
Hehe~
Wang Yingqiu chuckled twice, a rare occurrence for her, like a little girl. She tapped Jing Zhe's forehead with her finger and said indulgently, "I knew you'd come here to ask about this. Your eyes were really scary downstairs just now!"
Is it scary?
"Hmm, scary, but I love it!"
At this point, Wang Yingqiu smiled even more brightly, because she had felt a strong possessiveness from Jing Zhe earlier, which made her feel very good.
Jing Zhe picked up the thinly dressed Wang Yingqiu and placed her on his lap, continuing to ask, "Since you know you're trying to scare people, then tell the truth. What was the relationship between the garden owner and him before? How did they meet? Also, judging from his appearance, does he have designs on our garden owner?"
Seeing Jing Zhe's serious expression, Wang Yingqiu couldn't help but laugh again, and then said, "That's a long story, but Senior Brother Lin doesn't have any feelings for me, so you don't need to worry—wait, that doesn't seem right, you still need to worry..."
"???"
Jing Zhe was puzzled: "If he has no feelings for you, then why should I worry? Could it be that the owner of the garden has feelings for him?"
At this point, Jing Zhe became inexplicably angry.
With a forceful pull, Wang Yingqiu's shape changed.
"Ouch! That hurts!"
"If it hurts, say so quickly, or it will hurt even more!"
