“I don’t know. I’ve never had a big appetite before, so I’ve never been a big eater.”

The actor laughed and, at the same time, lowered his voice as he replied, “Ha, ha, putting on three pounds in one bite. I’m going to turn you into a fat girl.”

Yun Shishi said to Mu Yazhe at this point, “I’m a little tired. I think I’ll go to my room first. Lisa is waiting for me there.”

“Ah, right. How about…” Hua Jin suddenly raised his hand and suggested, “How about Lisa and I share a room tonight?”

Liang Yin asked curiously, “You want to change rooms?”

“Uh huh!”

“If all else fails,” he continued, “Lisa, Liang Yin, and I will share a room with—uh, Hua Jin. Shishi, you will share a room with Chairman Mu, Youyou and Little Yichen, and Gong Jie. Isn’t that a reasonable arrangement?”

Yun Shishi frowned, looking conflicted. “Lisa only wants to share a room with me…”

“Well then…” Hua Jin added, “Chairman Mu, it’s good that you and Shishi share a room.”

“That room of mine isn’t a suite. There’s only one bed.”

“Emmmm. What about the twins?”

“We do have two beds, but Youyou wants one for himself. It will be a little squeezy for Daddy and I.”

Youyou’s and Little Yichen’s room was a standard children’s room. The bed was a double-decker mother-and-child bed. If the man slept there… he wouldn’t know where to place his long legs. Liang Yin and Little Yichen could squeeze into the lower bunk and that would work well.

Hua Jin was stumped. Conflicted.

He no longer wanted to share a room with Gong Jie. Although they didn’t share a bed, it didn’t even matter that he wasn’t comfortable sleeping on the sofa, he just wanted to be as far away from Gong Jie, the demon king, as he could be.

Mu Yazhe asked, “Why? Are you uncomfortable sleeping on the sofa?”

Yun Shishi arched her brow quizzically. “Oh, did you sleep on the couch last night?”

The actor nodded miserably, close to tears. “Gong Jie bullied me.”

“I thought he said he’d let you have the bed!”

She said righteously, “Wait here while I go talk to him.”

“No… that’s not necessary.” The actor quickly stopped her. If Gong Jie found out that he had secretly “complained” to Yun Shishi, he would never let him off easy!

“I’ve thought about it. Actually, it’s good to sleep on the sofa. There’s no need to fuss! Anyway, the sofa is huge. It won’t hurt me to sleep on it. It’s good!”

Outwardly, he smiled, but in fact, he was depressed as could be. But what could he do? Feeling aggrieved, he took a sip of his tea. The thought of having to face Gong Jie for another three days gave him a headache.

In the evening, after dinner, the group went to the park to play again.

However, due to Gong Jie’s verbal “threats” Hua Jin didn’t dare go. Instead, he stayed alone in the hotel. He first took a hot shower and soaked for a while before changing into a bathrobe and lounging on the sofa to watch television.

It felt peaceful without Gong Jie around. At least, he could enjoy such an easy moment alone. He found it satisfying.

As this was a special suite, the hotel delivered a candlelight dinner with fresh fruit and delicious desserts. He finished his dinner leisurely and lay down on the sofa comfortably under the blanket. As he ate dessert and watched television, he actually began to feel sleepy.

Soon, he fell asleep with his head on his arm.
