“You dare to hand the important accounts over to me?” Yuchi Yishu glanced at her in amusement. “Aren’t you afraid that I might just tamper with the accounts?”
On the contrary, Tang Yuanyuan turned her head and looked at him sincerely. “Will you, Yishu?”
Her gaze made his heart skip a beat. Her temperament was completely in the soft, adorable, and sincere category. He could not bear to tease her. “I won’t.”
“I knew it. You are the best to me, Yishu.” After all, Yishu, who loves cleanliness so much, was willing to carry me while walking for such a long time. And he did that just to protect me from getting dirtied by the rainwater. Although ten minutes might not be much, it was enough to move her.
The staff member standing by the side said nothing, but he thought to himself, Young Master Yuchi’s family assets are large enough to rival the national assets of the country. Compared to that, the Tang Group’s assets are a piddling sum. Why would he want to tamper with the Tang Group’s accounts?
After exiting the elevator, they soon reached the suite.
“Young Master Yuchi, Miss Tang, the superior suite comes with toiletries including shampoo, shower gel, makeup remover, moisturizer, and so on. If you are not used to these products, I can immediately send somebody to buy the products that you like, Miss Tang.”
Tang Yuanyuan immediately shook her head. “There’s no need for that. I will use whatever is in the suite. At this time, it was flooding outside. Sending somebody to go out and buy stuff in this weather was simply inhumane. Thus, she hastily rejected his offer.
“Thank you for your understanding, Miss Tang. If that is the case, I won’t bother you any further.”
“Sure, you can go ahead.”
Afterward, Tang Yuanyuan dragged Yuchi Yishu into the suite and pushed him into the bathroom. “Yishu, you should bathe first.”
Yuchi Yishu took a glance at the young lady’s wet dress, then he reached out and pulled her into the bathroom. “You can bathe first. I’ll wait a while longer.”
“No, you can’t!” She shook her head. “Yishu, your leg has been soaked in rainwater for too long! The rainwater outside is dirty, so you need to wash it off now. I once saw a news report saying that skin will rot after being soaked in rainwater!” The water had overflowed from somewhere, and they didn’t know what kind of garbage or sewage was mixed in the water. For that reason, she was adamant that he had to quickly take a shower.
“What about you then?” He glanced at her again. “You have rainwater on your body too. Who asked you to rush at me just now? Well, now what?”
“I didn’t mean to do that. It was because you kept making me walk in front of you, so I had no other choice.” Then, she looked at him pitifully. “Yishu, won’t you listen to me for once? Hurry up and go take a shower. After you’re done, it’ll be my turn! If we continue arguing about this, both of us won’t be taking a shower any time soon.”
Her last sentence was the truth. The more they argued about it, the more they dragged things out. After all, the young lady was stubborn. If he refused to agree to shower first, she would probably drag things out even longer.
When Yuchi Yishu prepared to enter the bathroom and get it over with quickly, he unexpectedly discovered that the bathroom had a separate hidden area. Thus, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly. “Little girl, we might be able to take a shower at the same time.”
“Huh?” She showed an expression of confusion.
“You can take the inner shower; I’ll take the outer one.”
Tang Yuanyuan looked in the direction he was pointing. Then, she realized that the shower was separated by opaque glass. Thus, there was no way she could be seen from the outside if she was showering inside. Still, if they shared a bathroom, there would be the sound of water running. She blushed fiery red. “Yishu, still…”
“What situation do you think we’re in? Why are you still bothered by that?” He pushed her into the shower area. Then, he seemed to think about something. Worried that she might feel uncomfortable, he pulled the shower curtain. By the time she turned back to look, she found that the shower curtain had been closed tightly. It seemed like there was no need to wait for anything else. The toiletries were a comprehensive set for personal care and consisted of products from well-known brands; there were even bathrobes, towels, and everything else.
Splash. In the outer shower, he had turned on the water. Then, the entire bathroom was filled with the sound of running water. Not long after, he started playing songs on his phone. With that, the sound of water and the songs permeated throughout the bathroom. At this point, nothing else could be heard in the bathroom.
She was touched by his attention to detail. Removing her formal dress that was soiled by the rainwater, she turned on the hot water. Soon, the entire bathroom was covered in steam. Then, she forgot everything else and focused on removing her makeup and taking her shower. However long she took in the bathroom, Yuchi Yishu followed suit on the other side.
Tang Yuanyuan had always taken her time while showering. Moreover, she was soiled by dirty water today, so she was more careful in her washing. When she finished, she put on the bathrobe that was by the side. Then, she miserably realized something. The hotel had not prepared any undergarments and she had taken off the ones she was wearing. Thus, she was not wearing anything else beneath the bathrobe. This is awkward… How will we interact after this?
Tang Yuanyuan stood there for quite a long time before she called out, “Yishu?”
“Are you done?”
“Yeah,” she replied, after hesitating for quite a while.
The moment she said that, the sound of the running water outside stopped immediately. Subsequently, she heard Yuchi Yishu saying, “I’m going out first. You can come out a little later, then head to the right. That bedroom is for you.”
“What about you?”
“I’ll take the bedroom on the left.”
As they were staying in a superior suite, the interior layout was similar to an apartment. Although the interior decoration was more lavished than an apartment, there were many rooms. She did not know how he knew the layout of the room, but she guessed that he had taken a look at the place while she was taking a shower.
Soon, she heard the sound of his footsteps followed by the sound of the bathroom door closing. Taking in a deep breath, she stood motionless. After a while, she finally opened the door and pulled the shower curtain aside. The bathroom was steamy and the ventilating fan was working hard. On another note, his clothes had been neatly folded and set aside, but the sound of water had not stopped until recently. Don’t tell me he finished showering a long time ago? Was he waiting for me? As the thought crossed her mind, she couldn’t help but admit how attentive he was to her.
Wrapping up her hair, she opened the bathroom door. The outside was silent, and there was not a person in sight. Thus, she followed his instructions and walked toward the right. Sure enough, she came to a bedroom. Then, she opened the door and went inside. The bedroom was very spacious—there was a large bed, a dresser, and a floor-to-ceiling window. The room was located pretty high up, so she could see part of what could be considered the nightlife of the city spread out beneath her.
Unfortunately, she recalled that she was wearing nothing underneath the bathrobe. So, she felt very insecure. Thus, she hurriedly walked over and pulled the sheer curtain of the floor-to-ceiling window close. With a layer of the sheer curtain blocking out the outside, she felt safer. Following that, she went to look for a hairdryer to dry her hair.
After drying her hair with the hairdryer, Tang Yuanyuan received a message from Yuchi Yishu on WeChat. ‘It’s late. Go to bed early once you’re done drying your hair.’
Tang Yuanyuan subconsciously nodded her head. Only then did she realize that she was reading his message. Therefore, Yuchi Yishu had no way of seeing her nod her head. So, she hurriedly replied to his message in acknowledgment.
