Chapter 655: Bai Yueguang’s Bad Ending (5)
After Bai Shichu sent Zhou Yan back to her room and settled her down, she returned to her own room and found that she was covered in an unpleasant smell of alcohol, so she went to the bathroom and took a bath for half an hour.
Then she called the hotel front desk and asked them to send a bowl of sobering soup to her room. Not long after, the soup was served to her.
She didn't ask for this sobering soup for herself, but for Zhou Yan, the drunkard.
Zhou Yan's room was right next to hers, so she went out wearing only a bathrobe and carrying the hangover soup, but was almost scared by the person who appeared in front of her. She looked closely and found that it was the boy named Chi Junru whom she met in the bar tonight. His room seemed to be opposite them.
Chi Junru saw Bai Shichu, who had long hair and was wearing a bath towel, holding a bowl of soup. He glanced at her indifferently and was about to walk towards his room, but suddenly he smelled a faint fragrance into his nose, which soothed his aching head all the time, as comfortable as if it had been soaked in warm water.
As Bai Shichu walked past him, the faint fragrance became clearer, fresh and elegant, with a refreshing scent like lemon. Chi Junru's mental power, which had been on the edge of exploding, was now as calm as a baby who had been soothed to sleep.
He couldn't help but stop and was about to savor this relaxing feeling, but Bai Shichu had already used the card to open Zhou Yan's door and walked in. Then, with a bang, he closed the door without even leaving him a single glimpse of his back...
Chi Junru felt that the cells in his head were jumping again. As the fragrance left by Bai Shichu became fainter, the familiar tingling sensation became more and more distinct.
Originally, Chi Junru had already gotten used to the discomfort caused by his overpowering mental strength, but having just experienced the feeling of relaxation and comfort, this discomfort now became even more unbearable.
So he did not return to his room, but stayed at Zhou Yan's door.
After Bai Shichu went in, he poured the hangover soup to Zhou Yan, and then came out with an empty bowl. When he came out, he saw another tall man standing at the door. After a closer look, it was Chi Junru again. She immediately frowned and said, "What's wrong with you? What do you want to do by always standing outside other people's doors? Are you really going to do something bad?"
Chi Junru smelled the fragrance coming from the woman in front of him, which was even stronger than before, and felt the calm and relief of his spirit being soothed again. He was in a good mood, so even when faced with Bai Shichu's unpleasant questioning, he was able to answer her in a good manner.
"I'm sorry, I don't mean to harass you. I just think you smell nice. Can you tell me what perfume or skin care products you use to have this scent?" Chi Junru said these ambiguous words seriously, which could easily be misunderstood.
At first, Bai Shichu thought that he was trying to tease him, and was about to lose his temper and beat him up to let him know the consequences of such a lecherous behavior.
But she saw Chi Junru's eyes, which were clear and bright. There was no lust, evil or ill intention in his eyes, but they were sincere. Bai Shichu was stunned for a moment, and realized that he was really just asking what kind of fragrance she used on her body. Then he said with a wry smile:
"Sir, if you say something like this to a girl, it's easy to be misunderstood and get beaten up. Fortunately, I know what you really mean, otherwise I would have beaten you up."
"I didn't use any perfume. I just took a bath with essential oils I made myself. You think it smells good, right? I think you have good taste."
Bai Shichu said proudly that the little essential oil she had mixed with great difficulty could beautify and moisturize the skin, so of course it was good, but she didn't expect that Chi Junru also knew the value of it.
When Chi Junru heard her say this, he was a little disappointed. If it was a purchased essential oil, he could buy it himself, but this was mixed by Bai Shichu himself, so it would not be easy for him to get it.
"Miss Bai, I wonder if you could sell me some of this essential oil?" he finally said.
Bai Shichu shook his head: "No, I only mixed about 100 milliliters myself, which is not enough for my own use. How can I sell it to you?"
"Can't you allocate more? If it's a matter of money, I can afford it no matter how much it is." Chi Junru said impatiently, not caring about the fact that he was just a poor student and couldn't afford to pay much money.
After hearing what he said, Bai Shichu looked at him in surprise. After all, she had heard in the bar that Chi Junru was very poor, so where did he get the confidence to say that he could afford any amount of money?
When Chi Junru saw her eyes, he realized that he was no longer the man who had everything, but a poor student from an orphanage. So he paused and his expression became strange.
Bai Shichu thought he knew he was exposed, so he sighed and said to him: "It's difficult to mix this kind of essential oil. If you want it, you should find something else. Goodbye!"
As she spoke, she walked quickly to her door, opened it quickly and went in.
Chi Junru scratched his hair in annoyance, the familiar stinging pain following him like a shadow. He really wanted to catch Bai Shichu, ask her to hand over the essential oil, and keep her by his side for the rest of his life as his exclusive perfume maker.
But this was not possible in this era. It was illegal to deprive people of their personal freedom. Chi Junru could only stare at Bai Shichu's door with a cold face for a while before he returned to his room unwillingly.
Bai Shichu had no idea that she had almost lost her personal freedom. After she returned, she slept well without any dreams all night. When she woke up in the morning, she felt full of energy and vitality.
But her good mood was ruined when she received a call from an unfamiliar number.
"Is that Shi Chu?" A deep male voice came from the phone.
Bai Shichu asked with some confusion: "I'm Bai Shichu, who are you?" She really couldn't remember who the number belonged to, and there was no mark on it.
The person on the other end of the phone remained silent for a while. Bai Shichu asked in confusion: "Hello? Hello? Why aren't you talking?"
"Shi Chu, it's me, Qin Yan." A helpless voice said, "Have you even forgotten my voice? I'm very sad..."
Shit! Bai Shichu was almost covered in goosebumps. It turned out to be Qin Yan. If she had known it was him, Bai Shichu would not have answered the call. But now that she had answered the call, it was too late for her to regret.
"Qin Yan, there is no need to deliberately say such ambiguous words. There is no relationship between us at all. You and I have always known it very well. What exactly do you want to do by coming to me now?" Bai Shichu asked coldly.
"Shichu, do you really have to talk to me like this? Do you really not understand me at all?" Qin Yan seemed hurt by Bai Shichu's words, and his questioning voice sounded as if Bai Shichu was a female liar who deceived his feelings.
But heaven and earth can bear witness that Bai Shichu really has nothing wrong with him.
