Chapter 76: One Night
When Qi Shaoyou finally arrived at the hotel and the receptionist told him that there weren't many rooms available, he began to regret his decision.
"It's alright. There are two rooms. One is a family room with two separate single rooms. The other is a single room, which I'll be staying in."
"I'm a married man! You two, give way to me." Fang Yuan said confidently, her romantic thoughts taking over the moral high ground when it came to her wife.
Qi Shaoyou recalled how Fang Yuanjie had tried to sabotage him when he wanted to stay at Sister Manman's house.
What happened to our original aspirations? What happened to our promise to never forget our original aspirations?
He was completely different from a stranger. He had betrayed her and become a traitor! Qi Shaoyou gave Fang Yuan a accusing look. Just as she was about to refuse, Liang Man took her hand.
"Okay, then it's decided." Liang Man held Qi Shaoyou's hand, her tone as gentle as a breeze.
Qi Shaoyou felt the warmth in her palm, and reason told her that she should let go.
This is the hotel lobby. Although the staff are all bound by confidentiality rules, what if they are photographed by paparazzi...?
Sister Manman is about to be embroiled in a scandal, and Qi Shaoyou can already imagine how awful those damn headlines will be.
Especially given what just happened, this news is harmful and offers no benefit to Liang Man.
She loosened her grip on Sister Manman's hand, only to have it gripped tightly by Liang Manman the next second. In that instant, a sense of security enveloped Qi Shaoyou.
"I..." Qi Shaoyou had barely opened his mouth when Liang Man shook her head.
"What's wrong? Don't think too much. You've had a long day, go upstairs and get some rest." Liang Man not only held Qi Shaoyou's hand, but also reached out to tuck a stray strand of hair behind her ear. This simple gesture made Qi Shaoyou's face and heart itch a little.
The distance between them suddenly closed, and her mind went blank because of the sudden closeness.
So Qi Shaoyou obediently followed them to the top-floor suite...
After they swiped their room cards and entered the room, Qi Shaoyou finally saw the so-called family suite.
What exactly is Fang Yuan doing in the family suite? This is clearly a presidential suite!
Which family suite has a sleeping area, a study, and a living room?
Oh, and she also seems to have spotted some proper secondary bedrooms, more than one...
Even if we take a step back and assume that the sofa in the living room of the second bedroom wasn't soft, Qi Shaoyou felt that he could easily make do with the sofa for one night.
Sister Manman sleeps in the sleeping area, Sister Fang Yuan sleeps in the study, and she sleeps in the living room. Doesn't that solve the problem?
It's not too late to tell Sister Fang Yuan that as long as she speaks up...
As the time came to speak, Qi Shaoyou felt a pang of reluctance. If nothing unexpected happened, this would be the last night he spent with Sister Manman, and he couldn't bring himself to say it.
She couldn't bring herself to cancel her last night alone with her lover.
"What are you standing there for? It's already 10:30. Go take a shower and get some sleep." Liang Man gently nudged Qi Shaoyou, who then blushed and snapped out of his daze.
"Oh...oh, okay." Qi Shaoyou took a change of clothes from the toiletries bag that Sister Fang Yuan handed him.
It has to be said that Sister Fang Yuan packed everything very thoroughly, with all the necessary items and even several spare sets.
The steam in the bathroom gradually dissipated, and only when he was alone did Qi Shaoyou allow his heartache to overflow.
"It's alright, it's alright. Qi Shaoyou, this was your own decision. You knew what you had to pay for it, didn't you?"
Qi Shaoyou took a deep breath, trying to convince himself.
After a quick shower, Qi Shaoyou came out of the bathroom. Fang Yuan was very considerate; the long-sleeved and long-legged pajamas were very comfortable to wear.
Sitting on the sofa, Qi Shaoyou opened a bottle of Coke from her own refrigerator. It was late at night; she really shouldn't have opened a Coke. Coke contains caffeine, which is fine normally.
However, when she's upset, the caffeine has a different effect on her.
Knowing that drinking this would make it hard for her to sleep, she still drank it sip after sip.
The initial heat from the hot water gradually subsided. Reason returned, and Qi Shaoyou looked at the empty cola can and tossed it into the trash can.
She should go to sleep now; she should get some proper sleep.
Before going back to her room, she needed to brush her teeth first. The old bathroom and toilet were too hot, and Qi Shaoyou wanted to change bathrooms.
I opened the bathroom door at random, and the first thing I saw was Liang Man, who was only wearing a shirt and pajamas.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Qi Shaoyou's heart skipped a beat, and he closed his eyes and backed away.
Oh my god, why didn't Sister Manman lock the door when she took a shower!
Qi Shaoyou closed his eyes, his mind still filled with Liang Man's long legs. So white and long, her skin looked so delicate and soft. Her shirt only covered her upper thighs, leaving her thighs and ankles exposed to the air.
Stop, Qi Shaoyou, shut your mind! She tried to stop her thoughts, but the slideshow in her head just wouldn't stop.
The more you try to stop yourself from thinking about a particular image, the more you find it impossible to stop that image from playing repeatedly.
"I'm already dressed. Are you here to wash up?" Liang Man, having changed into her pajamas, pulled the person back.
"Come on... come brush your teeth..." She had already washed her face while taking a shower.
Qi Shaoyou controlled his gaze, not daring to look at Sister Manman at all.
Was it because of the shower? The bathroom was filled with the warm scent of jasmine; the thick, warm steam combined with the jasmine fragrance felt like a sweet dream.
"Here you go." Liang Man handed Qi Shaoyou a cup and toothbrush filled with hot water, and then filled her own cup with water.
The sink in the suite is large enough to comfortably accommodate two people for washing up.
Having lost his excuse, Qi Shaoyou held his toiletries and obediently brushed his teeth.
She originally intended to keep her distance from Sister Manman so that Sister Manman wouldn't remember everything. But now, all she wanted to do was escape.
The warm scent of jasmine seemed to cling to her body.
The warmth made her previously calm mind start to heat up again.
Qi Shaoyou quickly brushed his teeth and was stopped when he came out of the bathroom.
"Fang Yuan told me that only the master bedroom in this suite is usable. The mattresses in the other bedrooms don't seem to be very good."
"My back will hurt if I sleep, Shaoyou, why don't you sleep in the master bedroom?" Liang Man said, preparing to go to the second bedroom.
"No, Sister Manman, you have to work tomorrow. I'm just going to have some fun, it's fine for me." Qi Shaoyou was a little puzzled; would such a large suite use a different mattress?
Are there different quality levels for mattresses used in master bedrooms and secondary bedrooms?
Fang Yuan, the instigator, said: Of course not, it was all my slander against them, love you.
"Shall we sleep together? If we don't sleep well, we won't be able to have fun tomorrow." Liang Man took Qi Shaoyou's hand, and Qi Shaoyou felt that his heart had also fallen into Sister Manman's hand.
Just as she couldn't refuse to come to the hotel, she also couldn't refuse Sister Manman's request to sleep together.
Qi Shaoyou didn't know how she ended up in bed with Sister Manman; all she knew was that she was as stiff as a board.
After drinking the cola, she still couldn't fall asleep. After saying goodnight, she closed her eyes and started counting sheep.
When she counted a hundred, Qi Shaoyou began to regret drinking cola in the middle of the night. By the time she counted a thousand, she vowed never to drink cola in the middle of the night again!
Manman fell asleep first, and Qi Shaoyou felt at ease listening to her long, even breathing.
In her most peaceful moment, she was embraced by a sleeping person.
The warm scent of jasmine reached her nose once again, but this time there was less moisture.
In the soft embrace, Qi Shaoyou suddenly felt a little wronged. She also longed to be with her lover forever and live an ordinary life.
She tentatively hugged Sister Manman's waist, letting herself sink into this warm embrace.
No longer needing to count sheep brought her a sense of relief, and Qi Shaoyou unknowingly drifted into a dream.
Only after confirming that the person in her arms was truly asleep did Liang Man open her eyes. She gazed longingly at the girl before her.
Liang Man remembered everything when Qi Shaoyou entered the bathroom. She also knew what she was gambling on.
If they succeed, Qi Shaoyou will live and stay by her side forever.
If she loses, she will live out her long life carrying their memories.
Heaven and hell are separated by only a thin line.
But she didn't regret it. No matter how many times she had to do it again, she would still gamble with fate.
She did it willingly.
The person in her arms frowned and began to talk in her sleep, her expression full of unease. Liang Man gently patted the girl's back.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."
The whispered conversation was just like all the days before; they had always spent those days snuggling together like this.
If it was true before, it is true now, and it will be true in the future.
In the master bedroom, the scent of jasmine and the aroma of strong liquor intertwined, creating an inseparable and lingering fragrance.
Qi Shaoyou woke up very early the next day and saw Sister Manman's breathtakingly beautiful face as soon as he got up.
After confirming that the other person was really asleep, Qi Shaoyou gently kissed their rosy lips.
They parted as soon as they touched, Qi Shaoyou moved his hand away and then carefully slid out of Sister Manman's arms.
Fortunately, Sister Manman's hug wasn't too deep.
The bedroom door was gently closed, and the woman lying on the bed opened her eyes.
They didn't even say goodbye... I need to keep an eye on them from now on.
Qi Shaoyou was completely unaware of this; she was currently berating Chen Ping.
"Explain! Hurry up! Give me a reasonable explanation!"
