Do I really have a way of working properly under this person's nose?!
The answer is no, at least not today. She was in a daze for the rest of the afternoon, her face always itchy as if her gaze was brushing against it.
But when she looked up, Luan Yenan was engrossed in reading the documents, and all she could see was his stunning beauty.
Zuo Baixuan closed her eyes, not wanting to speak.
After getting off work, she rode home with Luan Yenan and completely shut herself off, locking herself in her room as soon as she got home.
Luan Yenan looked at the tightly closed door and slightly raised her lips.
He turned and walked towards his room.
Even after hiding in her room, Zuo Baixuan couldn't find peace.
Soon, Jiang Lingdan began to press for answers.
[Little Zuo! Don't hide it from me, has your relationship with Luan Yennan changed?!]
What could possibly change? It's just a matter of the couple's relationship being altered; they signed a cooperation agreement, that's all.
[I knew it! [As expected.JPG]]
【？】
Zuo Baixuan didn't understand why Jiang Lingdan looked like she suddenly understood, when her meaning was clearly unchanged.
"Bang!"
"Splash splash splash—"
When this house was being renovated, due to limited funds, only the master bedroom was decorated with high-quality materials.
The sound insulation effect of lying on your side is not ideal.
Previously, when Luan Yenan trained at the gym at night, Zuo Baixuan didn't need to stand at the gym door to supervise him; she could hear the rhythmic running sounds just by sitting in her room.
Now, they could hear noises coming from outside the door.
Zuo Baixuan was unsettled by Jiang Lingdan's reply, and now she was even more agitated by the noise. She wanted to see what kind of trouble Luan Yenan, who had been causing trouble all day, would do when he got home!
She pushed open the door and peeked in, only to see Luan Yenan wearing the white shirt he had been using as pajamas during the time he had no other clothes.
Holding a bed sheet and a formal dress, she walked towards the balcony.
Luan Yenan saw Zuo Baixuan come out from behind the door, her expression and voice as calm as ever.
"My pajamas are still with you, let's take them out and wash them together."
Only their gazes were fixed, filled with an intriguing scrutiny.
Luan Yenan's big commotion was to clean up the mess from last night.
Zuo Baixuan felt a chill run down her spine under Luan Yenan's gaze, and inexplicably had the feeling that she had done something wrong and was caught red-handed.
Seeing Zuo Baixuan's ears turn red as expected, Luan Yenan smiled with satisfaction: "Where are your pajamas? What are you daydreaming about?"
"Coming!" Zuo Baixuan turned her head back and closed the door.
The door slammed shut with a loud bang.
Luan Yenan held onto the "evidence" without moving, waiting for Zuo Baixuan to come out of the room.
He slammed the door to lure Zuo Baixuan out.
The door slammed shut behind Zuo Baixuan, a clear indication that she had lost control of her emotions.
Zuo Baixuan, who had been trying to remain calm all day, was now completely unable to control herself. How interesting!
A moment later, Zuo Baixuan took out her pajamas and the clothes she had worn that day.
Upon seeing Luan Yenan standing at the door, he instinctively hid the clothes behind his back.
After hiding it, he regretted it before Luan Yenan's laughter even reached him.
What are you hiding? It's like trying to hide something obvious!
Luan Yenan only found Zuo Baixuan cute, so he didn't urge her. After she took out the clothes, he said in a deep voice, "Let's go, let's wash together."
The five words, "It's nothing," didn't sit well with Zuo Baixuan.
Did you hear those five words in your half-asleep state last night?
She was too weak to move and muttered, "I can't move, can you help me wipe it?"
After that, every inch of her body was rubbed with a towel at her request.
"..."
Zuo Baixuan really wanted to travel back to yesterday, before she came back.
No, let's go straight back to before the dinner party and the drinking!
Or if these things are impossible, could you please stop thinking about them?
Memories from last night uncontrollably assaulted Zuo Baixuan's brain.
She followed behind Luan Yenan, closing her eyes tightly, unable to bear looking directly at him. But she bumped into Luan Yenan's back.
"What are you doing... why are you stopping... huh?" Zuo Baixuan's guilty conscience surfaced, and her tone, which had originally been a bit tough, softened.
Luan Yenan noticed Zuo Baixuan's guilty conscience and chuckled softly. He leaned closer to Zuo Baixuan and said, "I just suddenly remembered that this dress should be like mine and cannot be washed. Why don't we take it to the dry cleaners together tomorrow?"
As she spoke, the thick, long dress fell freely to the ground.
Zuo Baixuan lowered her head; even the shape of the long dress as it touched the ground looked strangely familiar.
Her heart was racing without her realizing it, and the fact that she had pounced on Luan Yennan first came to mind.
Zuo Baixuan simply couldn't accept the successive shocks of memories.
Even though she had a vague impression of it that morning, she didn't want to face it.
After taking a walk around the company, I finally managed to forget many things, but unexpectedly, they were brought up again when I got home.
Luan Yenan did it on purpose!
Luan Yenan did it on purpose, of course.
Although alcohol played a role in everything last night, she believed that Zuo Baixuan's own will accounted for at least 51%, and the alcohol merely released her subconscious.
Luan Yenan wanted Zuo Baixuan to realize this.
"Luan Yenan!"
Zuo Baixuan lowered her head and scolded softly.
Luan Yenan remained silent, instead asking in an even gentler tone, "What's wrong?"
Zuo Baixuan looked up.
Her peach blossom eyes were red, making her look pitiful.
Zuo Baixuan always felt that Luan Yenan was torn apart, half devil and half angel. But wasn't she herself torn apart as well?
Luan Yenan didn't say anything more, just looked at her. Facing Zuo Baixuan, who was on the verge of collapse, he chose to let her go one more time.
Luan Yenan had no idea how others felt about liking someone.
Her affections always manipulated her uncontrollably, making her want to possess this little white flower all to herself.
Even worse.
I want to gently leave an indelible mark on the delicate petals with my sharp claws.
I wanted to quietly trim the excess branches and leaves with sharp scissors.
If Zuo Baixuan refused, she was willing to use force—whether it was confinement, stimulation, or anything extreme or insane…
However, these crazy ideas always stop before they go out of control when Zuo Baixuan shows weakness.
What first attracted Luan Yenan to her were her peach blossom eyes, and what first made her unable to resist them was also those same peach blossom eyes.
Luan Yenan turned and walked to the balcony, leaving behind the duvet cover and sheets: "You have experience, you can handle these."
Zuo Baixuan was stunned. Before she could even express her emotions, Luan Yenan had already given up his teasing intentions.
Before she left, I could still hear her muttering, "I'm going to have to get a new Dalmatian again."
This made Zuo Baixuan's lips unconsciously curl up, which was somewhat amusing.
When her smile faded, she turned around and saw that Luan Yenan had already closed the master bedroom door without making a sound.
Zuo Baixuan felt a strange lingering unease, but she quickly composed herself and cleaned up the mess.
When I got back to my room, I saw my computer screen filled with posts about Jiang Lingdan.
Hey friend, I'm not trying to be mean, but you're really slow on the uptake! Haven't you noticed that you used to always emphasize the partnership? Now you're talking about the "wife-wife relationship" first! Isn't that a change?
【Even though you haven't said anything, I've been observing you for so long that I'm pretty sure, okay? Don't end up being the only one wary of Luan Ye Nan while you've already fallen for him, okay? It'll be so awkward for me when I go to your banquet!】
[Don't deny it! Observing you and Luan Yenan today, your demeanor and eyes were different. She was already hypocritical towards you before, and now even your attitude towards her is somewhat different.]
Jiang Lingdan rambled on for too long, so Zuo Baixuan only picked out a few key paragraphs to read.
She bit her lip, and after a long while, she finally spoke: "I was busy for a while just now. Tell me, what's different? She and I have been acting the whole time. Maybe the news from yesterday's banquet blinded you, and maybe our acting skills have improved too."
Jiang Lingdan analyzed the gossip with lightning speed: 【Bullshit! Xiao Zuo! You're still trying to hide it from me! Your acting in front of her was always just to match her performance. At most, she'd act out eight parts, and you'd stubbornly put on nine. What did I see today? She even toned down her acting by three parts, and you still used seven to flirt with her. I'm starting to suspect that she's fallen head over heels for you because of your flirting, and you like her too without realizing it. Tsk tsk tsk, what do you mean by cunning and forceful? This is clearly a two-way street, I'm totally shipping them!】
Unable to extricate oneself?
Unaware of it?
Are we... like that?
Zuo Baixuan placed her hands on the keyboard, unsure how to reply for a long time.
