Because of Mother Feng, Feng Yuanlin really wasn’t in the mood to talk further with Shuyan. The two hung up after a while.

Only now did Chi Shuyan find out that Brother Feng hadn’t completely broken things off with Qin Qing yet, and Mother Feng had even gotten pulled into it. Thinking of Mother Feng’s words, Chi Shuyan lamented that it wasn’t easy for Brother Feng.

When she hung up, she took a glance and realized that she had been on the phone with Brother Feng for more than half an hour. She got up and prepared to take a shower. She still had to wake up early tomorrow morning to go to school. She wondered if Qi Zhenbai would still send her to school tomorrow.

Chi Shuyan came out of the shower wrapped in a towel.

The bright bedroom ceiling light was turned off, and only two small table lamps were on. The tall man had entered the room at some point and was leaning lazily against the couch with his eyes closed. The orange light fell on the man’s cold face.

The man seemed a little irritated. The button on his collar was loosened, and he looked a bit tired. With his eyes closed, who knew if he was really asleep or just dozing.

Thinking of last night, Chi Shuyan felt a little guilty and embarrassed. Who asked her to make a mistake? Even if it was a result of drinking, it was still a mistake. With a fawning expression, she walked over and patted the man on the shoulder. If this man was really sleepy, he could just sleep on the bed.

Before her hand could reach the man’s shoulder, she felt a strong grip around her wrist. The man opened his eyes, which were cold and vigilant. “Who is it?”

Chi Shuyan felt a sharp pain in her wrist. Meeting the man’s cold gaze, her heart inexplicably thumped. She replied with a fawning smile. “It’s me! Are you sleepy? Why don’t you go to bed? Or do you want to take a bath? I’ll run one for you.”

Qi Zhenbai subconsciously loosened his grip when he saw the woman in front of him, then let go. His face was still aloof. He got up and nodded indifferently at her. “No need. I still have something on. Go to sleep first!”

Chi Shuyan: …

Chi Shuyan sensed that this man was really angry this time. Was he really going to give her the cold shoulder?

Usually, no matter how busy this man was, he would put things aside for her.

Chi Shuyan didn’t feel wronged, but miserable. This was the consequence of getting drunk!

She did want to explain herself, but she didn’t know what happened last night at all. From how abnormal this man’s mood was, she felt that she had really gone overboard after she got drunk last night!

Chi Shuyan wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. For the first time, she deeply understood the meaning of the phrase “courting death.” For a moment, she really didn’t know what to do. There was no way to explain herself, so she could only coax this man slowly.

But how to coax someone? She had only ever coaxed children. She simply sat on the couch, took out her phone and posted a plea for help without thinking too much about it: I accidentally crossed the line when I was drunk and did something with my boyfriend’s childhood friend. My boyfriend caught me in the act. How can I coax him?!

After Chi Shuyan posted this anonymously, she kept staring at her phone, hoping that the netizens would give her a solution. Who would have thought that after she posted it, there were indeed many comments, but they were all scolding her for being a scumbag. There were also netizens who said that a woman who would even hook up with her boyfriend’s childhood friend didn’t have a good character. They urged Qi Zhenbai to hurry up and kick her out, or they told Chi Shuyan to repent and let go of her boyfriend, and hook up with another scumbag instead!
