Beijing-Hong Kong Affair

Chapter 17 Sleeping in His Bed

Chapter 17 Sleeping in His Bed
“Can I come in for a minute? I’ll help you with the window.”

Jiang Yunian found it difficult to speak. Although this room belonged to him, he had already given it to Lin Xian, so he couldn’t just enter it casually.

“Sure, no problem, this is your room.”

Lin Xian turned sideways and let Jiang Yunian go in first, and then she followed in.

Jiang Yunian took out a roll of tape from the drawer, stood on a chair, and pasted a huge cross on the window.

Lin Xian looked up at him as he finished all this, and asked in confusion, “Will this protect against the wind?”

Jiang Yunian jumped down from the chair only after completing this task and landed steadily in front of Lin Xian.

“Yes, it is useful. It can increase the toughness of the glass and protect it from shattering to a certain extent.”

Lin Xian nodded, not quite understanding. This was the first time she had seen such a novel approach.

Seeing her confused look, Jiang Yunian said in a bright tone, “I’ll leave this card for you. You can use it to go to the cafeteria. You can go to the cafeteria for breakfast tomorrow.”

“No, I can just go out and buy food myself.”

Jiang Yunian stuffed the card into Lin Xian’s hand and said, “From now on, you are my assistant, so don’t be so polite to me, okay? You are not in good health to begin with, so remember to eat on time tomorrow.”

His tone was still gentle, but there was a hint of unapologetic attitude. Lin Xian suddenly felt like an old father educating his daughter.

“Got it, Doctor Jiang. Be careful on your way home.”

Jiang Yunian’s eyes met hers, and the tears in her eyes finally disappeared, and she felt relieved.

“Well, I’ll be leaving first. Please lock the door at night. Good night.”

After seeing Jiang Yunian off, Lin Xian put her clothes on the bed and found that Jiang Yunian had thoughtfully prepared a set of pajamas for her.

Just as Jiang Yunian said, this place has everything you need. Although the room is not big, it is very tidy and warm.

It can be seen that the owner loves life very much, as there are several medical documents on the bedside.

After taking a shower, Lin Xian washed her clothes. It was an hour later when she came out after finishing everything.

The cell phone rang and Lin Xian picked it up and took a look.

Jian Shiya sent several messages in succession. Probably because she knew about the relationship between Qiao Zijin and Chen Ji, she cursed Qiao Zijin several times in succession, and each sentence was different.

Lin Xian knew that Jian Shiya’s fighting ability had always been strong. Just by looking at the text, she could already get a sense of the picture.

Lin Xian was just about to reply when a message from Jiang Yunian suddenly popped up on the interface.

[I left in such a hurry just now that I forgot to change your bed sheets. Please change them yourself. They are on the top shelf of the closet.]

Lin Xian switched the window, replied with a “OK”, and got up to look for the bed sheets.

The wardrobe was designed to save space, almost reaching the ceiling. Even though she was tall, she had to step on a chair to reach things on the top layer.

Lin Xian thought about how Jiang Yu had just easily applied the tape, and this wardrobe must have been tailor-made for him.

After great effort, Lin Xian finally pulled out a set of bedding, and a photo fell to the ground unexpectedly.

Lin Xian had no intention of prying into other people’s privacy, it was just that the person in this photo was too eye-catching.

A tall girl with delicate makeup, crossed her arms and winked at the camera. The background seemed to be abroad.

She is very beautiful, a beauty that is unforgettable.

Lin Xian carefully put the photo back to its original place, as if she knew some important secret, and changed the bed sheets with a guilty conscience.

I clearly told myself not to think about these unimportant things.

But I couldn’t help but wonder, is this Jiang Yunian’s girlfriend or his ex?

Why do you have to hide the photos instead of putting them openly on the bedside?

In order to drive away the random thoughts in her mind, Lin Xian changed the bed sheets and picked up the book on the bedside table to read.

She had wanted to read this book for a long time but had never been able to buy the original English version. She didn’t expect to see it here.

Lin Xian was so engrossed in reading that she didn’t even notice the message on her phone. By the time she saw the message, it was already past twelve o’clock.

Jian Shiya said she wanted to come and see her before school started.

Lin Xian carefully considered her words and replied to her friend: [No need to come over, I will go back, I have decided not to study here anymore.]

Jian Shiya called directly.

“Bao, you are so confused! That’s the University of Hong Kong, how can you just say you don’t want to study there?”

A bitter smile flashed across Lin Xian’s lips. She knew that the opportunity was rare, but the high tuition and accommodation fees were beyond her ability to afford.

In order not to worry her friend, she did not tell the truth.

“I came here originally for Chen Ji, but now that he doesn’t need me anymore, I’ll just go back and continue to keep you company. How nice.”

“That’s right. If you weren’t here, I would have no one to eat with. There are so many men. Even if Chen Ji is missing, there are still countless handsome guys waiting for you.”

“My dearest classmate Xiaoya is better. Men will only affect my learning speed.”

“I know. When the university bully is ready to come back, I will pick you up at the airport.”

Jian Shiya successfully imitated the eunuch’s tone and made Lin Xian laugh, and the haze that occupied her heart was swept away.

“I’ll let you know when the time comes. It’s a typhoon now, so flights are suspended.”

“Then be careful when you’re out there alone.”

“Yeah, sleep.”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xian lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. She simply got up and sent a message to her tutor.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I sent it, I received a red exclamation mark.

She was deleted as a friend by her mentor.

Although she knew it was right to avoid suspicion at this time, Lin Xian still felt uneasy. There was obviously nothing between her and her tutor, but because of a few rumors, everyone was in danger.

It goes without saying that seniors in the same project team will also delete themselves.

Lin Xian suddenly felt like a failure. She didn’t handle her interpersonal relationships well and caused her mentor to suffer injustice. She couldn’t even say an apology.

She covered her face with a pillow and cried quietly. She didn’t know when she fell asleep. When she woke up in the morning, her eyes were swollen.

There was a hurried knock on the door, and Lin Xian opened the door in a daze in her slippers.

“Oh my god! You, why are you here!?”

Lin Xian didn’t expect Shen Mengnan to come here so early. She cleared her mind a little, “Doctor Shen, are you looking for Doctor Jiang?”

Shen Mengnan looked embarrassed and hesitantly said, “Yes, I was on duty again yesterday, so I wanted to come to his place to use the lounge to catch up on some sleep. If he was still sleeping, I wouldn’t disturb him.”

Lin Xian suddenly realized that he had misunderstood, “No, he’s not here. He was worried that I would be unsafe outside during the typhoon, so he lent me this lounge temporarily.”

Lin Xian explained incoherently, but the more she explained, the worse it got.

Shen Mengnan laughed dryly, “It’s okay, you go to sleep, I’ll go back to my own clinic for a while.”

Lin Xian quickly stopped him, “Why don’t you come in and rest first? I’m going to go out for dinner.”

“You can’t go outside, it’s too dangerous. Shen Mengnan, why did you come up here without permission again?”

Lin Xian looked in the direction of the sound and saw Jiang Yunian walking over, exhausted, carrying two large bags.

“Doctor Jiang, what are you doing?”

 I’m starting to push it today, please vote and give me a good review.

muah.
