108. Chapter 108: Just to See You from Afar 1

As I turned to leave, Shangguan Yun quickly pulled me into his embrace and whispered in my ear: "Let me hold you for a moment; I came all this way just to see you, to hold you in my arms."

Fortunately, the streets were almost empty at this late hour.

After a while in his arms, I finally said, "Have you had enough hugs? Let's go upstairs now."

Shangguan Yun released me, looked at me, and said, "You idiot, aren't you cold? Dressed so lightly."

Knowing I was dressed so lightly, you didn't go upstairs sooner, you insisted on hugging, and now you only realize how thin my clothes are?

Ignoring him, I kept walking, reached the third floor and entered the room; Shangguan Yun first looked around.

"You have nowhere to sleep tonight, you'll sleep here; I'll make you a pallet on the floor," I said, pointing at the floor.

He furrowed his brows, glanced around again, then leaned slightly toward me, lowered his body close to my ear and asked, "Will you sleep with me?"

Hearing that, I quickly stepped back a meter and said, "I'm not some lady; I won't sleep with you." My voice wasn't low—I figured Huiqing in the room heard it—but I didn't care, treating him as if he were invisible.

Shangguan Yun raised an eyebrow, crossed his arms over his chest, looked disdainfully at the whole outer hall, and after a long while said, "Then I'll go open a room to sleep."

At that moment, Huiqing came out in her pajamas, presumably having heard Shangguan Yun say he was going to sleep elsewhere.

"How about this: you and Xuanxuan sleep in the room, and I'll sleep here," Huiqing said, stepping out and standing beside me as she looked at us.

Hearing her words, I felt a bit dizzy.

"Don't you get it? Why would I sleep with him? Men and women are separate—don't you know that?" I said, pointing at Huiqing's forehead.

Shangguan Yun, hearing this, was amused, a smirk playing on his lips as he gave me an ambiguous look that made my scalp tingle.

"Then you two work it out. I'm going to sleep now—good night, handsome." Huiqing finally called out softly to Shangguan Yun; I really couldn't stand this woman.

Shangguan Yun also politely said to Huiqing, "Beautiful lady, good night."

I was about to break down—I really didn't know what kind of show they were putting on.
