When we left the ancestral home earlier, the sky was bright and clear, but now it has become dark.
Through the transparent glass beside me, I could see that the gloomy sky seemed to be about to rain.
Shu Yi raised her hand to check the time.
Before I knew it, it was already five o'clock.
I shook my head helplessly. This afternoon was utterly exhausting, both physically and mentally.
One minute she's the Shu siblings, the next she's the internet cafe owner, and now she's being seriously confessed to by Zhang Youye.
The first two are alright, since they are just unexpected situations.
The Crown Prince's confession was even more unexpected than a sudden incident.
He said.
I fell in love with her at first sight.
So it was love at first sight?
Shu Yi could understand why someone would fall in love with her at first sight; it was a beautiful thing, and she did indeed have a face that easily captivated people.
She has that kind of capital, that can't be denied.
She just didn't understand why she suddenly said something like "book a hotel room".
Is it really just that she doesn't want to be stared at by passersby?
She is not a casual person.
But--
The other person was Zhang Youye, who perfectly matched her standards.
Having been single since her student days, this is the first time she has met a guy who makes her heart flutter.
Moreover, through this period of contact, Zhang Youye actually gave her a pretty good impression.
She's much better than those brainless, rotten suitors who only know how to tell lame jokes to make her laugh.
Earlier, on the way to the hotel, she had clearly stated that she thought she had fallen for him.
Perhaps it's this feeling of liking.
It was just a fleeting moment of infatuation.
Undeniably, in her eyes, he did have something that made her heart flutter.
But I'll say it again.
Feelings can be cultivated, but emotions absolutely cannot.
What is certain now is that Shu Yi would never have felt this way with another man.
Anyway, things have come to this.
There's absolutely no way they'll back down.
Since he has already expressed his feelings, why not give it a try?
She didn't know what she would do once she got into the room, but—
What if the body is more honest than reason?
Letting desire and the body intertwine with this feeling of excitement must be very warm.
As Shu Yi settled into the sofa by the window, lost in thought, her gaze involuntarily drifted to the tall figure in front of her, who was negotiating with the room manager.
After scrutinizing him from head to toe for a long time without making a sound, Shu Yi pursed her lips, a captivating glint flashing in her dark eyes.
It must be said that the tall figure in front of him was striking, both in terms of facial features and physique.
Even from behind, every single detail is exactly what Shu Yi finds aesthetically pleasing.
Wrapped in a comfortable, loose-fitting hoodie, her body looks very healthy, so it probably isn't too bad.
We're all adults; everyone has physiological needs.
Besides, they're all cunning old foxes. It would be a waste not to eat the ripe flesh of Tang Sanzang, which is being offered to them for free.
Slowly lowering her arm, Shu Yi picked up the warm water in front of her, wanting to moisten her dry throat.
In a flash, I noticed that there were some bloodstains on my palm as I held the water glass.
Startled, she quickly got up from the sofa.
While I was negotiating with the room manager, a warm little hand suddenly lifted my palm, which was hanging by my side.
Noticing the woman beside him with a furrowed brow, Zhang Youye chuckled and comforted her, "It's nothing, she probably just scratched herself while getting the trash can."
"But the trash can is made of metal, and since it's already scratched, it's better to clean it up."
As she spoke, Shu Yi turned to ask the manager on the side if there was a first-aid kit.
"Yes, Miss, I..." The manager was interrupted by Zhang Youye's actions before he could finish speaking.
It would be foolish not to take advantage of such an openly offered opportunity. Grabbing her hand, Zhang Youye pulled her towards the elevator while instructing the manager.
"Then bring the first-aid kit to the room first, and also bring some food while you're at it."
"Yes, young master." Nodding in agreement, the manager then asked Shu Yi, "Does Miss Shu Yi have any dietary restrictions?"
Her previous wild thoughts had long been forgotten, and Shu Yi was worried that Zhang Youye's wound might get infected, so she also gave him some instructions.
"No, please bring the first-aid kit up quickly."
...
Bang--
The hotel room door was then casually kicked shut by Zhang Youye.
Before she could even admire the room's decor and layout, she grabbed his arm and led him into the bathroom.
Shu Yi turned on the water and gestured for him to put his palm under the water to rinse the wound.
Bloodstains flowed down the white porcelain wall and into the cave entrance, staining it with the water. She bent down and carefully examined his wounds.
"You said it was nothing, but the wound is already this long. Luckily it's not deep, but I'll have to put some medicine on it later."
He subconsciously raised his hand and gently rubbed her drooping head with his palm, which was not wet with water.
Her lowered head looked so obedient that Zhang Youye raised the corners of his lips and said with a doting smile, "No need to apply medicine, right? Men aren't so delicate when they get injured. It's just a small wound, it'll be fine in a couple of days."
"no."
Seeing that the wound was almost cleaned, Shu Yi picked up a towel and dried it for him, her tone forceful and uncompromising.
"The trash can is made of sheet metal, you know what sheet metal is? It would be a real problem if you got tetanus. Just to be safe, the first-aid kit will be here soon, and I'll put some medicine on it for you."
Just as he finished speaking, the doorbell rang.
After taking the medicine box from the manager, Shu Yi continued to pull Zhang Youye to sit on the living room sofa, rummaging through the medicine box from left to right. She was completely unaware of the eye contact between Zhang Youye and the manager.
After receiving a signal from the young master in front, the manager nodded knowingly and instructed the waiter behind him to put the food on the table. The two then pushed open the door and left.
