"So, you brought me home, took off my clothes, and slept in the same bed with me, and I'm supposed to thank you?" Gu Fanyan retorted.
He's sharp-tongued and clear-headed; it seems he's sobered up.
Lin Zhibai got out of bed and walked towards her with a slight smile on his lips.
"What are you doing?" She instinctively stepped back.
He was only wearing an open-fronted bathrobe, the belt loosely draped around his waist, and his long legs were particularly eye-catching as the robe swayed.
It was so hard to tell whether he was wearing anything underneath or not.
This made her feel threatened.
But she had already retreated to the window.
He continued forward, his tall figure completely enveloping her.
He's a little younger than her, but he's a grown man now.
He called her "sister," but in reality, she had no advantage whatsoever, not even the advantage of morally blackmailing him.
Because he's a madman.
“I suddenly remembered,” he said, bracing his hands against the glass of the French windows, trapping her with nowhere to hide. “Last night I wanted to do something else, but you were drunk, so it wasn’t very interesting.”
"Now that you're sober, you can continue."
"Lin Zhibai, how dare you..."
Before she could finish speaking, he had already picked her up and thrown her onto the bed.
His tall figure loomed over her, looking down at her.
His bathrobe came undone.
Hers too.
She was like a peeled peanut, plump and tempting, instantly arousing a desire to eat her.
"Lin Zhibai," Gu Fanyan swallowed nervously, "Actually... I was quite touched that you were able to act like a gentleman last night. Don't ruin the good impression you've made on me."
"Oh?" Lin Zhibai raised an eyebrow. "What benefits would it bring me if I gained Sister Fanyan's favor?"
"Of course there are benefits; we can live together peacefully from now on."
"I see. But when I'm with Sister Fanyan, I don't want things to be too peaceful at all." His eyes were full of mockery.
Only then did she realize that he had been playing a trick on her.
"Lin Zhibai, how dare you..."
His face rapidly magnified before her eyes.
He persevered all night, stayed up all night, and his sanity was completely depleted.
There's nothing he wouldn't dare to do.
The enchanting beauty that originally belonged to the night began at dawn.
One by one, other apartment owners left home to go to work.
While waiting for the elevator, they kept hearing strange noises.
Hmm, it's kind of like that thing, but I'm not entirely sure... Who does that kind of thing at home this early in the morning?
Besides, the apartment is soundproofed quite well. How could humans make such a loud noise when they're doing *that*?
strangeness!
That's strange!
The strange noises didn't gradually subside until near noon.
Gu Fanyan couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes. Her hair, soaked with sweat, hung messily on her cheeks.
This made her delicate little face look even more pitiful.
Lin Zhibai kissed him again and again, a layer of heartache welling up in his eyes.
He probably forgot that he was the one who had shown no mercy from dawn till now.
Gu Fanyan slept soundly for an unknown amount of time.
When I woke up, my whole body was still aching.
He clearly wants so much, so why doesn't he touch Sheng Xin when they're together?
She lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, lost in thought for a long time.
Until the phone rang.
"Sister Fanyan, are you alright?" Yun Suiwan's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I... okay, very good." Gu Fanyan felt a little guilty.
"I'm glad you're alright. I sent you several messages but you didn't reply," Yun Suiwan said. "You were drunk that night, and Lin Zhibai picked you up and took you home, right?"
"Hmm... I've taken him home."
Lin Zhibai's own home is also a home.
"Then I'll come to your house later. I have something I want to talk to you about," Yun Suiwan continued.
"I...I'm not home right now," Gu Fanyan quickly said. "I haven't gone home yet."
"...Sister Fanyan, it's 7:30 in the morning, where are you if you're not home?"
Gu Fanyan: ...
It turns out that it's already the morning of the third day.
She slept from noon yesterday until now.
She can sleep quite a lot too.
There was no way to hide it from Yun Suiwan anymore, so she had no choice but to confess.
"Isn't he taking advantage of someone in distress?!" Yun Suiwan was quite angry.
Gu Fanyan thought for a moment.
I don't think so.
She was conscious at the time, and her reason wanted to refuse, but her mind and body didn't follow her reason's instructions...
"Wanwan, why don't you ask me about my relationship with Lin Guangchen?" Gu Fanyan found it strange.
"Lin Guangchen?" Yun Suiwan chuckled. "He's not a good match for you at all. You two have no understanding of each other as a couple. You'll break up sooner or later."
this……
"Sister Fanyan, isn't Lin Zhibai quite suitable for you?" Yun Suiwan asked.
"I..." Gu Fanyan sighed softly, "I don't know either. I should reject him and stay away from him..."
"I've been doing this all along, but why do I get more and more entangled with him the more I try to avoid him?"
“Because he never gave up,” Yun Suiwan said. “When it comes to feelings, as long as one person holds on, it’s hard to truly sever them.”
"Speaking of which, Lin Zhibai is quite loyal in love. Before you lived in this city, he had many girlfriends."
“I don’t remember any of them because we never met more than three times, but there was one girl who stayed with him for three months.”
Yun Suiwan rarely talked about these things with Gu Fanyan, but now she felt she had to say it. "When I first met her, I was very surprised. She looks a lot like you."
Gu Fanyan frowned: "More like Sheng Xin?"
"She can only be considered a similar version; her nose, mouth, and temperament are very similar. As for Sheng Xin, she is an enhanced version."
"Lin Zhibai was really infatuated back then. We all thought he would marry Sheng Xin."
Gu Fanyan sighed, "Is constantly finding similar substitutes a sign of loving me?"
"Sister Fanyan, I think Lin Zhibai definitely loves you, or rather, he's infatuated with you."
"But he has very little dating experience. I guess apart from the relationship with you, he has never really dated any other girls."
"Including that girl and Sheng Xin."
He loves you, but he doesn't know how to love you.
Gu Fanyan was slightly taken aback.
"Sister Fanyan, I think you should give him a chance, some time."
"Let him learn how to truly love you."
Gu Fanyan put down the phone and continued to stare blankly at the ceiling.
Wanwan said that he had never been in a real relationship.
In fact, she was no different.
When she was with Murong Mo, she only gave up the title of "girlfriend," but she always enjoyed his kindness.
I feel at ease.
No effort was put in at all.
She doesn't really know how to truly love someone.
Just then, the door was gently pushed open, and Lin Zhibai appeared in the doorway. "I heard you having a long phone conversation as soon as I came in."
His handsome eyes held a hint of displeasure and grievance.
Gu Fanyan pursed her lips: "Wanwan called and asked me why I didn't go home that night. Do you have a problem with that?"
"Wanwan called?" His handsome eyes suddenly brightened, and his displeasure and grievance vanished instantly.
