Chapter 65 -65: Wait for Me Obediently in Bed
Xu Jinzhi didn’t give up and searched again, but the item was in a box, and it wasn’t small at all. How could it be possible that it kept escaping her sight no matter how much she flipped things over?
For a moment, Xu Jinzhi felt a bit panicked. She struggled to remember when she last saw the item.
Actually, she hadn’t bought it on purpose; she had just taken it from the hotel suite and casually put it in her bag. Why couldn’t she find it now?
Xu Jinzhi ended up dumping everything in her bag onto the bed, instantly creating a messy pile of items that was somewhat indescribable.
Yet, even after this search, Xu Jinzhi still didn’t see the box anywhere!
She clearly remembered putting it in her bag when she left!
When she looked up again, Xu Jinzhi glared at Xie Yanchuan with an unhappy face and suddenly felt a bit wronged. What was going on?
Xie Yanchuan, however, had gradually calmed down. His throat was dry, and when he spoke, his voice was unavoidably hoarse, “It doesn’t matter.”
Xu Jinzhi still frowned, obviously still not pleased.
After a moment of eye contact, Xu Jinzhi suddenly said, “I’ll have it delivered!”
As she spoke, Xu Jinzhi began searching for her phone, preparing to place an order on a delivery app, but Xie Yanchuan stopped her.
Xie Yanchuan grabbed Xu Jinzhi’s hand, his face becoming red and heated once again as he stuttered, “No, no need.”
Xie Yanchuan had indeed been agitated before, but the thought of having such an item delivered now was something he found difficult to accept.
Xie Yanchuan swallowed hard, looked at Xu Jinzhi with a guilty expression, but still managed to speak in a deep, forcibly calm voice, “Jinzhi, let’s just forget it for today.”
Xu Jinzhi hadn’t expected that despite all her planning, she’d still not succeed, and when she looked at Xie Yanchuan, her expression carried a slight trace of melancholy.
Xie Yanchuan didn’t know what to say, and under Xu Jinzhi’s gaze, he felt like he was losing control again.
Xu Jinzhi noticed the change in Xie Yanchuan, glanced at a certain spot on him, and said languorously, “Can you let it go?”
Xie Yanchuan followed Xu Jinzhi’s gaze and then abruptly looked up, his face filled with panic.
But by then, it was too late to say anything; he quickly got off the bed and stumbled toward the bathroom, where soon the sound of water trickling down could be heard.
Xu Jinzhi was still sitting on the bed, sulking, but couldn’t help but feel the urge to laugh a little.
Looking at the items she’d pulled out from her bag onto the bed, and then at her phone, Xu Jinzhi sighed in resignation. It truly was disappointing.
Yet, no matter how regrettable it was, Xu Jinzhi couldn’t do anything about it—the mood had already been ruined.
Xu Jinzhi first straightened her slightly disheveled clothes, then gathered all the items from the bed back into her bag before lying down on the bed.
The sound of running water in the bathroom continued, and Xu Jinzhi glanced only once before shifting her gaze away and started fiddling with her phone.
At this very moment, in the bathroom, Xie Yanchuan wasn’t worried about catching a cold and was showering in cold water.
However, even with the cold water, it took Xie Yanchuan quite some time before he completely calmed down.
Thinking about the events that had unfolded not long ago, Xie Yanchuan felt somewhat confused. He didn’t know what he was thinking at the time; all he knew was that things had progressed to the current situation.
In the end, it was because of that reason that things stopped. If it hadn’t been for the loss of that item, the situation would probably be quite different now.
Whenever he thought about those incidents, Xie Yanchuan became increasingly restless. He couldn’t help but frown, seemingly disgusted with his own lack of self-control.
After a long time had passed, Xie Yanchuan was sobered up by the cold water, to the point where not a hint of drunkenness remained, and he was incredibly clear-headed.
Still, Xie Yanchuan didn’t dare to leave the bathroom, worried that he would not be able to stop his mind from wandering the moment he saw Xu Jinzhi. However, it was completely impractical to hide in the bathroom forever.
After a good while, Xie Yanchuan finally got his thoughts in order and left the bathroom.
Then, he immediately laid eyes on Xu Jinzhi, who was lying on the bed playing with her phone.
“You good?” Xu Jinzhi said nonchalantly, turning her head to glance at Xingye.
Xie Yanchuan’s face instantly flushed with embarrassment. Considering the events that had just transpired and his hurried retreat to the bathroom, he didn’t need to say anything; Xu Jinzhi already knew what he had rushed off for.
Xie Yanchuan was momentarily at a loss for words, unsure of what to say. But seeing Xu Jinzhi’s calm demeanor made him feel he should also keep his composure. He was an adult, after all; was anything truly amiss?
Thus, Xie Yanchuan replied with feigned nonchalance and then added, “Let me take you home.”
He had been drinking, so he couldn’t drive, but it was so late, and Xie Yanchuan didn’t feel comfortable letting Xu Jinzhi go home alone. He could just find a substitute driver for her.
“Do you want me to leave?” Xu Jinzhi looked at Xie Yanchuan with an incredulous expression.
“No!” Xie Yanchuan declared firmly, his face shifting from embarrassed to serious. He absolutely did not intend to send Xu Jinzhi away!
Xu Jinzhi sighed in relief. “I thought you were angry and wanted to kick me out.”
Again, Xie Yanchuan didn’t know what to say and finally stuttered, “You know that’s not what I meant.”
At this point, Xie Yanchuan knew that Xu Jinzhi was deliberately misinterpreting his words.
He even understood why Xu Jinzhi said such a thing: firstly, because she found it amusing to tease him, and secondly, because she genuinely wanted to stay, to stay with him.

While they were looking at each other, the doorbell rang. The bedroom door was open, so the sound of the doorbell was clear within the room.
Xie Yanchuan was puzzled, wondering who could be visiting at this hour.
But Xu Jinzhi had already sat up from the bed, ready to rush out.
Watching Xu Jinzhi, she explained, “I ordered takeaway.”
At the mention of “takeaway,” Xie Yanchuan seemed to remember something, his face suddenly looking unnatural, “You, you…”
Xie Yanchuan stumbled over his words, unable to articulate anything but feeling shocked. Xu Jinzhi, seeing his expression, knew exactly what he was thinking.
“Wait nicely in bed for me, okay?” Xu Jinzhi teased, hooking Xie Yanchuan’s chin with her slender, soft hand, speaking earnestly.
Then Xu Jinzhi withdrew her hand and headed straight out of the bedroom barefoot, with Xie Yanchuan’s gaze following her until she looked back as she left.
