150: Chapter 150 Girls are scary
"Where are you?"
After Jiang Che's call had been ringing for a full thirty seconds, it was finally answered.
"Eating breakfast."
"Where are you eating breakfast?"
"The airport." Hearing the odd tone in Jiang Che's voice, Su Su suddenly felt inexplicably guilty.
"It's so early, and you ran all the way to the airport to eat breakfast?"
"Is that against the law?"
Su Su felt a bit dissatisfied. Even though she had inexplicably gotten carried away last night, kissed him, given herself to him, and then snuck out of bed at the crack of dawn, couldn't this guy... use a gentler tone?
Thinking of this, Su Su suddenly hesitated. Fine, it seemed she... had been pretty excessive.
"Come home. I've bought breakfast."
"What for? Are you going to kidnap me?"
"Kidnap you? To be honest, I kind of want to beat you up right now."
Su Su was momentarily speechless. She remained silent for a few seconds before muttering, "I'm just staying over, not signing a slave contract. Why aren't you letting me leave?"
"You're so righteous about it? What about last night?"
"..."
That one sentence made Su Su go quiet immediately. Her ears flushed red, and she felt both shy and flustered.
"Wh-what last night? I slept very soundly last night."
"You, Miss Su..." Jiang Che was so angry that his teeth itched.
"My surname isn't Su~"
"Are you planning to pretend you have amnesia?"
"What amnesia? I don't know what you're talking about." Su Su's cheeks were burning, but she intended to deny it to the death. As long as she didn't admit it, it was as if nothing had happened!
Jiang Che felt dizzy. Was this really a famous actress? Wasn't she clearly just a female hooligan?
Jiang Che had heard of plenty of men who refused to take responsibility after the fact, but how did it get reversed when it came to him?
"Come back. I'll take a day off, and we can have a proper talk."
"Not coming back!" Su Su replied without the slightest hesitation, then muttered, "You just said you wanted to beat me up."
"I..."
Before Jiang Che could finish his sentence, Su Su suddenly interrupted, "My phone is dying, hanging up now!"
Jiang Che, left with his sentence unfinished, looked at the hung-up phone with black lines on his forehead.
When he called again, Su Su had simply turned off her phone. She was clearly avoiding him.
Damn... what kind of person is she? How is she just like a female hooligan?
Jiang Che walked into the bathroom, took off his shirt, turned around, and looked in the mirror.
It was covered in scratch marks...
On the other side, at a breakfast shop on a street in Nansu, Su Su looked left and right and pulled down the brim of her hat.
She didn't want to leave either, but... she had regretted it the moment she woke up this morning. It wasn't regret over having had relations with Jiang Che last night, but regret that she shouldn't have been so impulsive.
She stood up, preparing to leave, but was quickly called out by the breakfast shop owner behind her.
"Miss, you left your things behind."
Su Su turned back and realized she had forgotten the medicine she had just bought from the pharmacy.
She picked up her things and said thank you. The auntie, noticing that Su Su's walking posture was a bit strange, and seeing that the item on the table seemed to be medicine, asked with concern, "Young lady, are you okay? You look like you're walking a bit strangely. Did you twist your ankle?"
Su Su froze. Her face turned bright red in an instant. She quickly shook her head, said thank you, and hurried away.
After walking a distance, Su Su felt a bit depressed. Walking strangely? Was it that obvious? Hmph, it's all Jiang Che's fault! She had said it was her first time, and yet he was still so...
After cursing him in her heart twice, Su Su's face suddenly turned even redder.
Early this morning... it seemed she had gotten a bit carried away. Not only did she scratch his back, she, she even took the initiative...
Thinking of this, her cheeks burned.
Hmph, whatever, it's all his fault anyway!
...
When Jiang Che arrived at the company, both An Ran and Luo Yao found it a bit strange.
"Didn't you say you were taking time off? Why are you back?" An Ran couldn't help but ask as she looked at him.
"After taking the leave, I realized I had nothing to do, so I came back." Jiang Che looked at An Ran, feeling an inexplicable sense of guilt, so he spoke softly.
Luo Yao didn't react to Jiang Che's strange explanation, but looking at his exhausted face, she asked, "Did you stay up late last night?"
Jiang Che nodded. He hadn't slept well on the sofa in the first half of the night, and in the second half, he was in the Stinky Girl's room, and was slept with by Su Su.
"Little brat, help me buy a cup of coffee. I'll transfer the money to you in a bit." Jiang Che looked at Dongfang Yitian, who was sizing him up from across the room, and said.
The girl was stunned for a moment before realizing he was calling her. She immediately frowned, "Who's a little brat?"
Seeing Jiang Che teasing the young girl, An Ran immediately stepped in to smooth things over, "Yitian needs to organize some files. I'll go; I happen to need to buy some things downstairs anyway."
Dongfang Yitian realized that An Ran was protecting her, so she immediately stood up, glared at Jiang Che, and said, "I'll go."
Since it was just their own people in the office, and other departments rarely stopped by in the morning, Jiang Che often just slumped over his desk, preparing to catch up on some sleep.
Seeing this, An Ran gave Luo Yao a strange look, and Luo Yao shrugged, indicating she didn't know what was going on either.
After napping for about twenty minutes, Jiang Che heard footsteps approaching him. He looked up and saw that Dongfang Yitian had not only bought the coffee but had also prepared it.
"Not bad, kid, you're quite intuitive." Jiang Che took it, blew on it, and found the temperature was just right.
Thinking he would quickly take a sip of coffee to refresh himself and wake up, Jiang Che didn't hesitate and took a huge gulp, and then...
The next second, Jiang Che's eyes widened, and he looked at Dongfang Yitian with a strange expression.
With Luo Yao right there, Jiang Che was too embarrassed to spit it out so ungracefully. After swallowing it with a frown, he took a few seconds to recover before opening his eyes and looking at the calm Dongfang Yitian beside him, "What kind of coffee did you buy?"
Dongfang Yitian shook her head, "Forgot."
Revenge! Naked, barefaced revenge. This brat, her desire for revenge is even stronger than the Stinky Girl's!
Jiang Che had never drunk such bitter coffee in his life. If the flavor hadn't been otherwise normal, he would have suspected that this girl had added something to it.
Without evidence, and unable to outright say he'd been pranked by her, Jiang Che could only carry the coffee and head toward the pantry.
After he left the office, Luo Yao looked at Dongfang Yitian and asked in a low voice, "Did you add something to the coffee?"
Dongfang Yitian shook her head, "No. I just told the clerk I wanted the bitterest one, and to make it a double."
Looking at Dongfang Yitian's innocent face, a thought drifted through Luo Yao's mind:
Girls are so scary...
