21: Chapter 21: Make It Even or Take Responsibility?

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Su Lu knew this was self-inflicted.

She wasn’t that drunk, at least not to the point where she didn’t know what she was doing.

Everything she did was something she subconsciously, deep down, wanted to do.

It was just the liquid courage that made it possible.

But…

Su Lu quickly began to regret it.

She had completely overestimated her own endurance and underestimated Bo Jingshen’s potential.

That time at Yunding… maybe because the environment wasn’t right, the atmosphere wasn’t right.

Bo Jingshen was very restrained; what he showed wasn’t his real strength, but even so, she couldn’t handle it.

Let alone now, with the perfect timing and setting.

He wasn’t holding back at all.

Su Lu was entirely drained of energy and almost immediately nestled into his arms and fell into a deep sleep.

Bo Jingshen lowered his eyes to look at the person who had fallen into a deep sleep in his arms.

His gaze was deep.

He watched quietly, not knowing how long he had been staring so intently.

That deep gaze seemed to pierce through countless days and nights of unfulfilled desires and thoughts, so heavy.

On the carpet by the bed, his phone vibrated in the pocket of his pants, making a buzzing sound.

He picked it up and saw Yan Sui’s name flashing on the screen.

Bo Jingshen wrapped his arms around the person in his embrace, lowered his head, and lightly kissed her on the forehead.

Su Lu was truly afraid of him, even frowning in her sleep and muttering softly, “No more, no more.”

Bo Jingshen’s lips curved slightly before he swiped to answer the call.

Bo Jingshen, “Hmm, what is it?”

Yan Sui sighed, “I specifically told you to be a decent person and treat Cainan better.

But you made her cry.”

Bo Jingshen, “Did she come to you?”

Yan Sui, “Yes, I drank with her all night and just sent her back to the hotel.

Don’t you have a heart of stone?”

Yan Sui fully expected Bo Jingshen to feel some guilt or remorse.

Instead, he heard Bo Jingshen’s usual indifferent voice, “Oh, that’s good.

See which day in the next couple of days the weather is suitable for flying, and send her to Feng City.”

Yan Sui said helplessly, “Do you have a heart of stone?

Are you being too cruel to Cainan?”

Bo Jingshen said calmly, “Dragging this out would be crueler to her.”

Yan Sui sighed, “When will you learn to be less clear-headed?”

Bo Jingshen chuckled, “These past few years have been so tough; if I weren’t clear-headed, I wouldn’t even know what I’d become.”

Yan Sui, “Alright, I won’t say more.

You know your limits.

But… isn’t sending Cainan away a bit inappropriate?”

“Not really sending her away, just letting her return first.

After all, she originally came back to work, Cheng Yan arrived before her, that’s all.

My company in Feng City is just starting up, we need a lot of people, and I don’t trust anyone else.” Bo Jingshen said this quite matter-of-factly.

Fooling others might work, but Yan Sui just smiled, “Is it just because of that?

Not because Cainan touched your fragile heart?”

Bo Jingshen gave a deep look at Su Xiaolu sleeping in his arms.

He didn’t deny Yan Sui’s words.

Bo Jingshen, “She’s not very cunning, she can’t compete with Cainan.

Honestly speaking, she’s not even on Cainan’s level.”

Yan Sui, “So you have to protect her.”

Bo Jingshen remained silent.

Yan Sui chuckled, “Being a strong woman isn’t easy…”

If Cainan knew this, she would have had no idea what to think.

For years, she worked hard to become a strong woman, just to be able to stand on par with Bo Jingshen, to be a partner worthy of him, to help and support him in career and life.

But who knew, Bo Jingshen didn’t need that at all.

After ending the call, Bo Jingshen turned off the night lamp.

The room, still imbued with lingering passion, plunged into endless darkness.

When Su Lu woke up, her whole body ached.

“Hiss…” She inhaled sharply, her eyebrows knitting tightly.

Her mind went blank for a moment.

The heat source behind her made her brain buzz, and then those scattered memories began to come back together.

Gradually piecing together.

Her already pale face from the hangover turned even paler.

She didn’t black out, if only she had.

But those memories were crystal clear.

Not only did she not black out, each frame was vividly clear.

Su Lu raised her hand to cover her face, mocking herself inwardly, Su Lu, how could you be so gutsy?

Drunk and crazy, how gutsy.

She didn’t need to turn around to know what that heat source behind her was.

“Awake?” the man’s voice had the hoarseness that comes with first waking up.

Su Lu didn’t respond.

“Pretending to sleep?”

Su Lu’s voice was thin like a mosquito’s, “Awake… awake.”

His breath rustled behind her ear, causing her ear to turn crimson.

Bo Jingshen chuckled softly behind her, “Judging by your reaction, you remember last night clearly?

I thought you might use blacking out as an excuse.”

Su Lu only then realized the feasibility of using blacking out as an excuse.

And how much it might alleviate the awkwardness.

Then…

The person now regretted, really regretted it.

Bo Jingshen gave her a kiss.

“Don’t worry, I won’t make a fuss and demand you take responsibility.”

Then he got out of bed, casually wrapped a towel around himself.

Su Lu sneaked a glance at him.

Eight-pack abs, V-lines, long legs, nothing lacking.

His physique was so good that the soreness in her body felt even more intense.

Wrapping himself in a towel, Bo Jingshen sat by the bed, leaning over to look at her.

“That time at Yunding, this time last night.

Su Xiaolu, do you think we’re even now… or do you want me to take responsibility?”
