Chapter 278: Should I Take Responsibility?
Chapter 278: Should I Take Responsibility?
After leaving the restaurant, the four of them returned to their rooms together. Their floor was on the 20th floor, and in the elevator, Jiang Xia noticed that Zhou Chenglei had only pressed the button for the 20th floor. She glanced at the time—it was already 7:47 pm.
Jiang Xia gently tugged at Zhou Chenglei's sleeve.
Zhou Chenglei looked down at her.
"You're going to see Old He, right? You can go directly. I'll go back to the room with Xia Dong and the others."
Zhou Chenglei replied, "There's no rush."
Jiang Dong also said, "Brother-in-law, you don't need to make two trips. Just go and find Old He! I'll take my sister back to the room."
"Mhm," Zhou Chenglei acknowledged, but he still didn't press the button for the elevator.
Old He's room was on the 9th floor, and it wouldn't be too late for him to accompany Jiang Xia back to her room before going to see Old He.
Jiang Xia let him be.
Jiang Dong wanted to say something more and even reached out to help press the elevator button, but Zhang Fuyan quietly pulled on Jiang Dong's sleeve, pulling his hand back.
The couple liked to be inseparable, and they didn't want to be apart for even half a moment. Why was he getting involved?
Jiang Dong turned back to look at Zhang Fuyan, "Sister Xian, why are you pulling me?"
Zhang Fuyan: "..."
"I didn't pull you, I accidentally bumped into you."
"Oh, you bumped into me pretty hard."
Zhang Fuyan: "..."
This guy was like a pig! Jiang Xia felt like laughing.
If one wasn't her brother and the other wasn't her sister, she would have laughed.
Even Zhou Chenglei couldn't help but give his brother-in-law a look.
Jiang Dong: ...
Why were they all staring at him?
The 20th floor arrived quickly, and Zhou Chenglei led Jiang Xia back to their room. He unlocked the door with the key, stepped inside, and habitually scanned the room before saying to Jiang Xia, "I'm going to Old He's room. You lock the door from the inside."
Jiang Xia: "You go ahead! I'll go talk to Sister Xian after I finish showering."
Sister Xian had arranged the room for them using her connections, so she probably wanted to talk to her.
Jiang Xia wasn't going to be a spoilsport.
Zhou Chenglei also knew that they had made plans, so he nodded and said, "I'll come back and let you know when I'm done."
"Okay," Jiang Xia replied.
Zhou Chenglei left the room, closing the door behind him.
As Zhou Chenglei was leaving, he saw Jiang Dong carrying three suitcases to deliver to Zhang Fuyan."
Zhou Chenglei told Jiang Dong that Jiang Xia would be looking for Zhang Fuyan after her shower and asked him to keep an eye out.
The hotel was busy today, so he needed to pay extra attention to the ladies' safety.
Jiang Dong naturally agreed. He thought that since his sister was going to talk to Sister Xian, he should quickly take a shower and then go and join them.
Otherwise, it would be boring to stay alone in the room.
After his shower, Jiang Dong went to knock on Zhang Fuyan's door.
Zhang Fuyan had just finished washing her hair and was about to take a shower when she heard the knock. She thought it was Jiang Xia.
She had already taken off her clothes and couldn't be bothered to put them back on, so she just slipped on a nightgown and went to open the door.
Zhang Fuyan used the door to block her body before opening it and sticking her head out, "Xia Xia, come in quickly..."
Before Zhang Fuyan could finish her sentence, she saw that the visitor was Jiang Dong. Instinctively, she tried to close the door.
Jiang Dong quickly moved, squeezing through the door opening.
"Bang!" The door was shut by Zhang Fuyan!
Jiang Dong had squeezed in!
"Sister Xian, you almost squashed me..." Jiang Dong couldn't finish his sentence as they stared at each other, and he felt like a fool.
His face instantly turned red, "Sorry! I didn't know... I'll leave right now!"
He quickly opened the door and ran out.
Zhang Fuyan's face also turned as red as a tomato.
She looked down, and her face became even redder. She quickly rushed into the bathroom.
Jiang Dong used the key to open the door, and it took him a while to get the key into the lock.
He turned the key, opened the door, entered, and closed it. He couldn't help but cover his face.
His entire handsome face had turned as red as an apple.
The image of what he had just seen kept replaying in his mind, and he couldn't shake it off.
Jiang Dong closed his eyes, and even with his eyes closed, the scenery was breathtaking!
Has he seen through Sister Xian? Shouldn't he take responsibility?
But she's his sister!
Was he just being a hooligan?
Will his father break his leg?
Zhang Fuyan's sleepwear was a white strappy dress bought by her mother abroad.
Underneath, she was in a state of vacuum, and the water droplets in her hair had dampened the fabric.
White cloth becomes translucent when wet.
It was truly a full view!
Jiang Dong, you bastard!
An hour later, after Jiang Xia finished showering and drying her hair, she opened the door to go out.
Jiang Dong also opened his door and glanced at Jiang Xia before averting his gaze. "I'll come over and chat with you too."
Running away is not befitting of a man!
Jiang Xia: "..."
Just talk if you want to talk!
Why is he avoiding eye contact and blushing? Jiang Xia looked at him, sensing something was off.
She knocked on Zhang Fuyan's door without making a sound.
Zhang Fuyan's voice came from inside, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Jiang Xia."
Zhang Fuyan opened the door, and as she did, she saw Jiang Dong waving at her, "Sister...Xian."
What an idiot!
Zhang Fuyan had traveled abroad and was more open-minded.
Women overseas wear lingerie, no, they wear bikinis on the beach too.
She was actually quite covered up just now!
With a casual smile, she linked arms with Jiang Xia, "Xia Xia, come in quickly."
Jiang Xia entered, observing the subtle changes in Zhang Fuyan.
Something is definitely off, absolutely off!
Something must have happened between these two!
Jiang Dong wanted to go in as well, but Jiang Xia stopped him, "This is girls' talk, men aren't allowed. Go back to sleep!"
Zhang Fuyan breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Xia firmly kept Jiang Dong out and slammed the door shut.
Jiang Dong, who almost bumped into the door, said, "..."
Inside the room, Jiang Xia tentatively asked, "Did my brother upset you? Do you want me to teach him a lesson?"
Zhang Fuyan shook her head nonchalantly, "No!"
Forget about such an embarrassing moment!
Jiang Xia didn't press further, as she knew where to draw the line. Zhang Fuyan would share what she wanted to share.
Changing the subject, Jiang Xia asked, "What was Jiang Dong's reaction when he saw Ye Xian in the train compartment?"
Zhang Fuyan recalled Ye Xian's pretentious behavior, and the conversation flowed, "Jiang Dong didn't react much. Didn't you give him a suitcase with spinner wheels to study? He was just reading and drawing in there. I took a curtain and hung it over Jiang Dong's bunk so he could focus on his research."
Jiang Dong's bunk was the lower one, and Ye Xian's was also on the lower level, right across from him.
Seeing Ye Xian's longing glances at Jiang Dong, Zhang Fuyan took out a curtain and hung it for him!
Zhang Fuyan described how she hung the curtain for Jiang Dong, and the two burst into laughter at Ye Xian's expression.
Jiang Dong stood outside, anxious and unsure of what to do.
He couldn't hear their conversation, but the sound of their laughter eased his mind.
Sister Xian must have calmed down.
Ninth Floor
Zhou Chenglei was playing chess with Old He.
"Have your household registration and files been transferred?"
Zhou Chenglei placed a piece, "The household registration was returned, and the files are with the Senior Leader."
Old He couldn't help but curse, "That old man! He's holding onto your files and won't let go. I'll ask him to give them to me, and then you and your wife can come over."
He saw an opening and quickly placed his piece.
Zhou Chenglei placed another piece, "Checkmate! You lose, sir."
Old He: "..."
