Chapter 575 - 257: Hubby~ Carry Me to the Bedroom, I’m Cold
He secretly took a picture with his phone and sent it to the homeowners’ group chat.
He didn’t add any comment.
A moment later, the walkie-talkie on Li Guanghua’s belt crackled to life, making him jump.
When he found out that Xu Yun had just secretly photographed him and posted a complaint in the group chat, he was so frustrated he slapped himself twice.
This was the second complaint!
One more, and he’d be fired!
To save his job, he scrambled to explain himself to the shift supervisor.
Meanwhile, the complainant, Xu Yun, had already taken the elevator to the 19th floor.
He opened the door to Su Mu’s house and saw her lying on the sofa, dead drunk and fast asleep.
On the floor, there was an empty wine bottle.
The TV was still on, playing some unknown drama series.
It turned out that after calling Xu Yun, Su Mu had come out of her bedroom again and fallen asleep on the sofa.
The weather had turned cool. Xu Yun walked over and pulled her white nightgown back up, as it had slipped halfway down her shoulder.
Then he bent down, preparing to carry her back to bed.
Just as his hands slid under her waist, Su Mu woke up with a start, her eyes opening in a drunken haze.
Having slept for two hours, Su Mu had sobered up a bit.
She asked in surprise, "Xu Yun? What are you doing here?"
"What am I doing here?"
Xu Yun, smelling the lingering alcohol on Su Mu, replied with a wry smile, "Didn’t you call me? You said if I didn’t come keep you company, you wouldn’t sleep!"
"Er."
Su Mu shook her head. "When did I say that?"
"Fine, you didn’t say it, right?"
Xu Yun pulled his hands back and said deliberately, "In that case, I’m leaving. I’ll go sleep next door."
"Don’t go!"
Su Mu quickly grabbed Xu Yun’s hand. "You’re already here, so stay and keep me company tonight!"
"I should just stay because you say so? What about my pride?"
Su Mu knew Xu Yun was messing with her and had an ulterior motive. She asked, "Then what will it take for you to stay?"
"First, let me hear you call me ’Hubby’."
The drunken Su Mu, her eyes alluring, hesitated for three seconds.
Then she took the initiative, wrapping her arms around Xu Yun’s neck and whispering into his ear, her breath fragrant.
"Hubby~ carry me to the bedroom. I’m cold."
The warm breath tickled Xu Yun’s neck and ear. He laughed and replied, "Alright. I’ll warm you up in just a minute!"
...
Jian Shiwai had just gotten home and barely had a moment to rest when a video call from Xino came in.
Their relationship was pretty good thanks to the trip they had taken together.
So naturally, they had each other’s contact information.
Plus, Xino knew that Jian Shiwai had been the one to arrange Xu Yun’s flight back tonight, so she wanted to get some information from her.
Jian Shiwai answered the call in her living room, asking with a smile, "Miss Xi, still up so late?"
"Not yet."
Xino asked with concern, "Sister Shiwei, has Xu Yun arrived in Jiangcheng?"
"He arrived a little while ago."
"Can you tell me what happened?"
"Er, I’m not sure either."
Jian Shiwai said, "I was only responsible for arranging his flight. I don’t know anything else. If you want to know, why don’t you call him and ask yourself?"
"If he wanted to tell me, he would have before he left."
Xino said, "He left in such a hurry. I’m just worried he’s run into some kind of trouble, and I want to help him."
"I don’t think so. He seemed fine to me."
"Alright then, I won’t bother you anymore."
Xino said, "If anything happens to him in Jiangcheng, you have to call me immediately!"
"Okay, I will."
Jian Shiwai reassured her, "You should get some sleep. If nothing unexpected happens, he’ll be able to return to Hang City tomorrow morning. I’ve already pre-booked his flight."
"Mm."
After hanging up, Xino might have agreed, but she was still a little worried. Staring out the window, she couldn’t sleep at all.
And she wasn’t the only one who couldn’t sleep tonight. There was also Lin Suiling!
She never imagined he would delete her as a WeChat contact!
She had finally managed to get his WeChat ID again from the middleman, the car blogger Xiaoteng, but after sending a friend request that evening, it still hadn’t been accepted.
To be honest, she had never been wronged like this in her entire life.
Usually, people were desperate for her contact info and couldn’t get it. Countless rich heirs pursued her, but she didn’t give any of them the time of day.
Because any man who wanted to get with her first had to sit in her passenger seat and join her for a few laps on the racetrack.
And after every race, not a single one of them could meet her standards.
Their reaction was always the same: screaming in the car, getting out with a pale face, and vomiting uncontrollably—just as she herself had done today.
She didn’t like men like that.
But she couldn’t just find a professional racer either.
Because of their mismatched family backgrounds, her family would definitely object.
She was the only daughter in her family, and her future son-in-law would need to inherit the family business, so he had to be a business elite.
Finding someone who understood business operations, shared her hobby, and was even better at it than she was... that was practically impossible.
That was why she was still single.
Xu Yun had seemed a bit flippant today, but looking back now, she realized he completely matched her requirements for a partner.
Outstanding looks, loaded with money—a single one of his cards had a balance of over 200 million.
’Holy shit, he must be the young master of some major corporation!’
’A person like that, raised in that kind of environment, his business acumen can’t be bad either!’
’Most importantly, his racing skills completely crushed mine, comparable to a top-tier F1 driver!’
At twenty-four or twenty-five, she wasn’t getting any younger, and her family was pressuring her. Now that she’d finally met someone, she really did have the thought of giving it a try with him.
’Didn’t he want to get with me, too?’
’Fine, let’s give it a try and see who gets who!’
But now she couldn’t even add him as a contact!
Women are just like men: the more you can’t have something, the more you want it.
"That bastard Xu."
Lin Suiling muttered to herself angrily in bed, "You think you can just flirt with me and run? No way! I’ll find you, even if I have to go to the ends of the earth!"
In the bedroom of the large Jiangcheng flat, Xu Yun was working diligently.
Quickly comforting a woman, especially a heartbroken and slightly drunk one, is an energy-consuming task.
So it wasn’t something that could be resolved in a short amount of time.
After trying again and again, using all sorts of ways and methods, the exhausted woman finally quieted down.
Su Mu nestled in Xu Yun’s arms, now completely sober.
Her cheeks were rosy, and her skin had become even more radiant.
"Xu Yun, how did you get back tonight?"
Su Mu asked, confused, "Weren’t you in Hang City?"
"You were so drunk, how could I not worry!"
Xu Yun chuckled. "For you, of course, I chartered a plane to come back. Just remember to reimburse me for the cost later."
"Okay, I’ll pay you back when I have money."
Honestly, Su Mu never expected Xu Yun to make a special trip back just because of something she said while drunk.
It would be a lie to say she wasn’t touched.
Any woman in her shoes would be moved to tears.
People always say love doesn’t need material things, but the truth is, when a man does something to move you, every single second of it costs money!
Take this time, for example.
If Xu Yun didn’t have money, could he Do as You Please and charter a plane to come back and surprise her?
"But, Sister Su."
Xu Yun caressed her pale, smooth skin and asked, puzzled, "How did you know I was in Hang City?"
"I’m not telling you."
Su Mu smiled and asked in return, "So when are you leaving again?"
"At dawn."
"So soon?"
"I only came back on short notice to be with you."
Xu Yun smiled. "Now that you’re okay, I naturally have to go take care of my other business."
"I see. There’s another woman waiting for you in Hang City, isn’t there?"
Xu Yun: "..."
"Alright, go then. I’m not an insatiable woman."
Su Mu smiled. "I’m very happy that you came back to spend the night with me. But before you leave, you have to love me one more time."
"You really think I’m an ox, trying to squeeze me dry like this!"
Xu Yun laughed, flopped onto his back, and rolled his eyes. "Anyway, I’m out of energy. You can do what you want!"
"No problem. This time, I’ll be on top!"
As she spoke, Su Mu flipped over and pressed down on top of him, fitting them together perfectly!
