Ferran said he had seen right through him all along.
"You live by the sea? Why are you being so nosy?"
"Can't I just love drinking the cocktails Chi Yuan makes?"
Xiaoye tapped the muscles in her calves and rolled her eyes at Fei Lan.
"Yes, of course you can."
Chi Yuan casually grabbed a bottle of wine, opened it, and poured it for Xiao Ye.
When will these two troublesome people leave? He still needs to take Shen Yulou home.
"Where's Yulou? She left so soon?"
Xiaoye shook the cup in her hand and casually lifted her lips.
"He should have left by now, right? I didn't see him at all in the second half of the game."
Ferran muttered in agreement, and Xiaoye automatically and consciously ignored his reply.
His answer is not important; Chi Yuan's answer is what matters.
"He hadn't left yet. During the halftime handover, he came over and asked me for a Long Island Iced Tea, and ended up getting drunk."
"She's still asleep in the lounge."
Chi Yuan held the wine bottle in his hand, casually wiping the mouth of the bottle, and then looked up to dismiss the guest.
"So when are you two leaving? I want to go back to sleep."
Xiaoye stopped swirling the wine in her glass and tilted her head back to drink it.
He swallowed his Adam's apple very quickly.
"Let's go, let's go now."
"Then I won't disturb your rest any longer."
Felan felt embarrassed to stay any longer, so he drank the honey water in his cup and left one after the other with Xiaoye.
Chi Yuan carefully collected the two cups and handed them over to the cleaning lady for disinfection.
Chi Yuan hesitated as he placed his hand on the doorknob.
Is he really going to take Shen Yulou home?
It's not impossible to sleep here.
Just leave the bar key on the bedside table, send Shen Yulou a message, and he can leave.
The corridor was eerily quiet, so quiet that Chi Yuan felt uneasy, his heart pounding faster.
Didn't he not want to be with Shen Yulou?
In that case, avoiding too much contact is the best option.
He wanted Shen Yulou to see his indifference towards him, only then would Shen Yulou give up on him.
Moreover, what's the difference between this kind of flirting, lingering, and indecisive behavior and the scumbag you hate?
Chi Yuan took a deep breath, realizing he couldn't continue like this.
He decided to put the key in and leave, but the image of Shen Yulou burying her face in his neck and saying how sweet he smelled popped into his mind.
So well-behaved, so well-behaved it's almost limp.
If only I could always be this obedient and always use such a soft voice to coax him.
Unconsciously, I applied force with my palm, and the doorknob was turned down slightly.
Startled by the thought, Chi Yuan broke out in a sweat and immediately put the doorknob back in its original position.
The door was suddenly pulled open by a backward force, and a cool breeze brushed against his burning cheeks.
"What are you doing?"
Shen Yulou rubbed his eyes and yawned, leaning against the door frame and staring blankly at him, looking like he hadn't woken up yet.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to give you a key, in case you can't leave the bar after you wake up."
Chi Yuan casually scratched his ear and handed him the keys from his pocket.
"Oh, give it to me."
Just as the two hands were about to complete the handover of the keys, Shen Yulou's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Chi Yuan didn't exert any force to pull his hand back.
The two remained locked in a stalemate, their keys touching each other.
"What? Still reluctant to part with your key?"
"Or is it that you're not reluctant to part with the key?"
"Is it because you... still can't let me go?"
The moment she opens her eyes, she's already flirting.
No one knows how to flirt with Chi Yuan better than him.
Shen Yulou smiled and tilted his head back to rub against the door frame.
The rounded, transparent nail even pierced through the hole in the keychain, gently scratching Chi Yuan's fingertip a few times.
"No, I just thought you would take it."
As if he had touched a hot potato, Chi Yuan tossed the key into Shen Yulou's arms and immediately withdrew his hand.
"Okay, I'll take it."
"Go back now."
The young man in front of him seemed to sigh because he wasn't taking the bait, and regretfully pulled on the doorknob, preparing to close the door.
Aren't you leaving yet?
