Chapter 235: We Slept Together

The next day—

The sun rose early, and the sunlight passed through the window, hitting the large bed in the bedroom directly without the obstruction of curtains.

Jiang Baobao was woken up by the dazzling sunlight and opened her eyes in a daze. The next second—

"Ah!!!"

A scream rang out in the bedroom, and the birds in the trees outside were startled, taking flight in an instant.

Jiang Baobao looked shocked, her eyes wide as she stared at Li Beijue, who was looking composed before her.

"Why are you in my bed! Who let you in!" She questioned the person in front of her loudly, her face full of displeasure and bewilderment.

Li Beijue raised an eyebrow, a hint of a smile unable to be suppressed in his eyes.

Was he really that scary?

And... she didn't seem to have realized how intimate their current posture was.

Li Beijue thought this, and deliberately moved slightly, the arm that had been wrapped around Jiang Baobao's waist all night.

Jiang Baobao froze abruptly, and goosebumps instantly broke out all over her body.

Before she could react, she heard the man's low, magnetic voice ring out by her ear.

"You were drunk last night, clinging to me and refusing to let go, and even made me tell you stories... You... don't remember?"

There was a hint of hidden amusement and teasing in Li Beijue's tone.

Jiang Baobao, however, didn't catch it at all; she felt as if she had been struck by lightning, her body stiff and her face full of disbelief.

It was true that she had drunk a lot of alcohol last night, but Ling Feng should have been the one to send her back...

But clinging to Li Beijue and making him tell her stories?

That was just too ridiculous!

And even if it were true, this guy should have just dumped her here and ignored her; how could he possibly have stayed, and not been angry at all!

No matter how Jiang Baobao thought about it, she felt something was wrong, and because of the hangover, her head felt a dull ache, making it hard to clear her thoughts for a moment.

No... Li Beijue was also being too abnormal...

Could it be that she hadn't woken up yet and was dreaming?

Jiang Baobao thought this, then suddenly raised her head abruptly, staring fixedly at Li Beijue for a few seconds.

Seeing this, Li Beijue immediately nodded unhurriedly and said, "You were staring at me just like this last night, pulling on me, not letting me leave, and insisting that I tell you stories."

"I..." Jiang Baobao felt a breath stuck in her chest, instantly suffering internal injuries.

If she didn't know Li Beijue's personality, she might have thought he was pranking her right now!

Jiang Baobao closed her eyes, trying hard to recall what happened last night, and finally vaguely remembered a few fragments.

Yesterday... it was she who insisted on coming back here, that was correct.

After returning, she seemed to have said a few words to Yanbao and the others, and after that was...

Jiang Baobao's brain was a mess, and everything after that became blurry; she couldn't remember a thing.

But she could recall that the person who stayed by her side last night really seemed to be Li Beijue...

Thinking of this, Jiang Baobao's expression gradually became somewhat subtle.

It's over... if everything Li Beijue said was true, then she was too embarrassing last night, right?

There was some annoyance in Jiang Baobao's eyes, so she had to bite the bullet and explain, "Sorry, I... I encountered some things yesterday, so I wasn't in a good mood and drank a bit too much. Sorry to trouble you with taking care of me, thank you..."

She thanked Li Beijue in a very official and polite manner, while she couldn't help but mutter to herself inside.

There shouldn't be any problem with saying it like this, right?

If Li Beijue were to say she was throwing herself at him or something... she would just have to endure it this time!

Who told her she couldn't remember what happened last night...

Just as Jiang Baobao was thinking this, the next second, she heard Li Beijue say in a calm tone, "I heard from Shen Lingfeng that yesterday was your parents'..."

He didn't say the words "death anniversary," but paused for two seconds before deliberately asking, "So, do you plan to lie in bed and rest today?"

Li Beijue deliberately emphasized the words "lie in bed."

Jiang Baobao shook her head subconsciously, and just as she was about to speak, she suddenly realized something and widened her eyes abruptly.

Damn it!

She had actually been leaning in Li Beijue's arms like this, talking to him for so long just now!

She had actually forgotten to get up!

Jiang Baobao was startled and immediately went to sit up from the bed, but as soon as she moved, her knee suddenly bumped into something!

"Cough..." Li Beijue coughed abruptly, a subtle expression flashing across his face instantly.

Jiang Baobao also stiffened all over, and it only took her two seconds to realize what she had bumped into just now.

"You..." She spoke subconsciously, but after saying only one word, she immediately closed her mouth, though two clouds of red uncontrollably floated onto her cheeks.

"Pervert!!!" Jiang Baobao finally couldn't help but spit out the two words, then quickly sat up from the bed and disappeared from Li Beijue's sight at lightning speed.

Li Beijue watched her fleeing back and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

He hadn't done it on purpose either... holding her like this to sleep all night, if he didn't have any reaction... would he still be a normal man?

In the bathroom, Jiang Baobao quickly washed her face with cold water, only then feeling much calmer.

It was just that the temperature on her face hadn't faded in the slightest, and even her earlobes were starting to turn slightly red.

Calm down!

Must calm down!

Everyone is an adult; this is just the most normal physiological reaction!

Even if it were a pig that Li Beijue was holding in his arms just now, he would still have that kind of reaction!

Pfft, pfft, pfft!

Wouldn't saying it like that be the same as calling herself a pig?

Jiang Baobao's mind was in a mess; while thinking, she quickly cleaned herself up, but she stood in the bathroom, not in a hurry to go out.

Tsk... why did she drink so much alcohol yesterday?

She even pestered Li Beijue to tell her stories!

Just thinking about the scenes that might have happened last night made Jiang Baobao feel uncontrollably embarrassed.

After pondering for two seconds, she carefully opened the bathroom door and tilted her head to listen for any movement in her room.

After listening for a long time, she tiptoed back to the room door, and seeing that there was no one inside, she finally let out a heavy sigh of relief.

It was too embarrassing!

And just now, she even...

Jiang Baobao took a deep breath; thinking of what had just happened, the heat on her face showed signs of returning.

She should just leave early today; she wouldn't take those little ones to kindergarten, and she would make it up to them another day!

While thinking this, Jiang Baobao quickly returned to her room, locked the door, changed her clothes, and then grabbed her bag and went straight downstairs.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she reached the bottom floor, she would run into Li Beijue again!

"Leaving so early? Not taking Yanbao and Mobai?" Li Beijue stood at the foot of the stairs holding a cup of coffee, deliberately raising an eyebrow as he asked.

"I... I have some urgent work to attend to today, so I won't be taking them..."

Jiang Baobao answered in a flustered manner, turned around, and left, her face full of annoyance.

Drinking alcohol is just too prone to causing trouble!

She would absolutely never drink that much alcohol again!
