BXBX NOVEL Chapter 90 - 91: Drunk
Only Gu Qichen and Shen Shichuan remained in the private room.
Gu Qichen was resting on the table.
Shen Shichuan, sitting quite leisurely next to Gu Qichen, had picked up a copy of “World Economy” from a decorated bookshelf behind him and was reading it.
On hearing a noise at the entrance, he looked up: “Finally, you’re back.”
Xia Yangyang was surprised: “How did you know I would come back?”
Shen Shichuan seemed like he was waiting for someone, could it be her he was waiting for?
Shen Shichuan got up, put the book back on the shelf behind him and said, “Seeing you looking back every three steps as you were leaving, I knew you would come back. I’m leaving your husband with you, I’m going home.”
Wait, what?
Leaving her?
Wasn’t he going to help at all?
How could she single-handedly take care of this drunk man?
However, it seems like Shen Shichuan had no intention of helping. Before leaving, he gently patted Gu Qichen on the shoulder.
It was as if to say: my brother, this is all the help I can give you now.
At this very moment, Xia Yangyang didn’t notice that Gu Qichen had slightly opened his eyes and told Shen Shichuan to get lost with just a glance.
Shen Shichuan left.
His driver was waiting outside the hotel.
As he was getting into the car, driver Lao Zheng asked in confusion, “Where is
Mr. Gu? Why did he not leave with you?”
Because just now, Lao Zheng had dropped them both off here.
Shen Shichuan just laughed and said, “He may be spending the night here.”
Lao Zheng started the car and asked doubtfully, “Did Mr. Gu get drunk?”
Shen Shichuan said, “No, he never gets drunk.”
In the private room.
Xia Yangyang placed her hand on her temple, trying to ease the headache.
How should they leave?
If she left with him in front of so many people, they would probably make the front-page headlines tomorrow.
Although Xia Yangyang becoming Cinderella in the fairytale romance was still a secret.
However, if she ever got caught in a scandal with Gu Qichen, there would definitely be lots of negative news when the leading lady is revealed.
Left with no other option, Xia Yangyang got a room downstairs.
It took her all the effort she could muster to drag Gu Qichen into the room.
Gu Qichen seemed utterly drunk, leaning heavily on Xia Yangyang’s shoulder the entire time.
Luckily, Xia Yangyang had been practicing taekwondo since childhood, and hence was quite strong.
Once in the room, Xia Yangyang dropped Gu Qichen onto the bed.
Xia Yangyang was utterly exhausted herself and felt like she had shed a mountain off her shoulder.
She fell onto the bed too.
Xia Yangyang lay flat on her back, taking deep breaths.
After resting for awhile, just as she was about to get up, Gu Qichen rolled over, half his body pressing onto hers.
He smoothly pulled Xia Yangyang into his arms, with one hand across her chest.
Just as Xia Yangyang was about to break free.
She heard Gu Qichen murmur hazily, “Yangyang, I miss you so much.”
Xia Yangyang only felt a surge of electricity pulse through her.
When Gu Qichen spoke, his voice was like a child whining. She had never seen Gu Qichen like this before.
It was as if he had become a different person.
Xia Yangyang was stunned, yet a smile slowly spread across her face.
Scores of pink bubbles seemed to fill her heart.
She was originally quite angry that Gu Qichen accepted toasts from so many girls at the party.
But because of that one sentence from him, Xia Yangyang felt her anger evaporate bit by bit.
Gu Qichen continued to mumble: “I feel uncomfortable.”
Xia Yangyang hurriedly said, “Hold on, I’ll go and get you some sobering medicine.”
Before she could stand up, Gu Qichen grabbed her arm: “I hate medicine, I don’t want to take any.”
Xia Yangyang patiently explained, “This is a hangover cure, it’s different from other medicines. You’ll feel better after taking it.”
Gu Qichen was behaving like a stubborn child, “I don’t want any medicine, I want to take a bath..”
