Chapter 282 - Long Night (II)
Linfeng was leaning on the headboard of his bed while checking on so business doc.u.nts with his smartphone.
However, he had been stuck on reading the sa page of the report for three minutes already.
His mind was filled with thoughts about one person.
That girl's eyes who tempted him today with an almost innocent vibe, her blushing cheeks which turned redder as he inched closer towards her. Her soft hands that were so addicting to touch.
Those cherry lips that looked like red jelly, uttering heart pounding words.
As if asking him to bite them and devour them completely.
Instead of the report, he saw the face of the person occupying his mind.
Linfeng closed his eyes, feeling his throat go dry by his unruly thoughts.
Argh.
He tossed his phone on the bed. He could not work like this. It was better to sleep early and see her first thing in the morning.
He ticulously arranged the pillows and blanket on the bed before lying down to sleep.
Then, he heard a heavy sigh coming from the other bed.
The floor assigned to the boys were constructed similarly to the girls' floor. Just like the girls' rooms, the boys' rooms were designed carefully to match most of the straight n's preferences. The interior had a modernist design with coloring thes of black, gray, and white. It gave off a masculine and sophisticated feeling, which suited the boys very well.
Similar to the girl's room, the boys' room each had three beds.
Linfeng was occupying the farthest bed while Jang Shin was occupying the middle bed. There was an empty bed near the door.
Because not all students were able to attend the school trip, there were quite a lot of rooms with empty beds such as this.
Sigh~
Jang Shin rolled on his bed and sighed again. After staring at the ceiling for a while, his restless body rolled once more.
He ended up rolling to face Linfeng's side.
His eyes t his best friend's apathetic gaze.
"Linfeng~" Jang Shin coquettishly called out to him with grievances.
The other imdiately avoided his eyes as he tried to hold back the goosebumps popping out from his skin. He knew what would co next.
"Linfeng~ my friend, help out. I have this ominous feeling that tomorrow, I'll end up eting my maker. Sothing bad is definitely going to happen to tomorrow, I can feel it," the boy cried out.
"Let's trade, alright? I promise to take good care of your Young Miss Zhi diligently. So, can you stay with Tang Xinyang? Just for tomorrow~" Jang Shin pleadingly said, his watery eyes staring at his best friend.
Linfeng looked at him without any expression, as if looking at a dead man.
"Not a chance."
The coquettish young man cried even more. "Then, I will give up my two months' worth of inco as the CEO of SC, you just stay with her during free ti."
Linfeng faintly frowned at the noisy fellow, still adamantly saying, "No way."
This ruthless guy!
Jang Shin gritted his teeth. "T-then... Aside from giving up two months of inco, I will also not ask for my bonus this year, and I'm willing to slave away for overti... Just accompany us during free ti."
Jang Shin thought hard of ways to stay away with his Young Miss tomorrow, but it seed futile. If that could not be avoided, then at least he must not be left alone with the Young Miss!
For him, the scariest thing in the world was to be left alone at his frightening Young Miss's rcy.
Without anyone else with them, who would stop his Young Miss in case she went overboard in beating him up? His dear little life might really end tomorrow!
Linfeng still shook his head. Although he did feel a bit sorry for Jang Shin, but he was absolutely unwilling to leave his own Young Miss's side in this short period of ti that he was able to stay with her.
"Your bargaining ch.i.p.s are all wrong. First, I will, at all cost, stick to my Young Miss tomorrow. You know I could not easily et her during these tis," he said.
Then, he turned to look at the grieving man and said seriously, "Second, don't just look at Tang Xinyang with your old prejudice. Open your eyes and look clearly at her. Then, you might not find her that frightening."
Jang Shin looked in askance at him, his eyes wide.
He asked in disbelief, "Which part of her was not frightening?"
"Then think about it, did she raise her fist against you today?"
Jang Shin paused. "T-that's why I'm worried. What if it was the calm before the storm? Who knows if she piled it all up for tomorrow?"
Linfeng was about to reply and persuade his friend to look at Tang Xinyang in a different light, when a knock sounded from the door of their room.
Linfeng and Jang Shin looked at each other. Then they looked up at the clock.
Both eyes were wondering who would visit them at this late hour.
Since Jang Shin was the nearest of the two to the door, he stood up from the bed and opened the door slightly.
"Hello, good evening." A gentle voice that sounded like spring ca from outside. "So, you are my roommate tonight."
Jang Shin's single lid eyes opened wide as he stared at the young man standing on the hallway.
Linfeng also heard the voice. He sat up from his bed, his eyes turning cold.
"May I co in?" After saying this, the person outside did not wait for their answer and entered the room directly.
Jang Shin stepped back involuntarily, and Guan Gao Huan was revealed to Linfeng's sight.
Guan Gao Huan looked at Linfeng directly with a look of 'surprise'.
"Oh. Zhou Linfeng is here too. What a coincidence," he said with knowing tone, as if there was a hidden aning behind words. His lips slightly curved into a smirk.
"Sorry if I ca late. I hope I did not bother you. Were you sleeping already?"
Jang Shin finally recovered and asked from the door, still feeling shocked that Guan Gao Huan was here, claiming to be their roommate. "W-what are you doing here?"
They had not seen his shadow all morning until afternoon. They thought that he would not be attending as well, like many of the other senior students. Half of the seniors did not co to the school trip this year.
Guan Gao Huan put down his small luggage on the remaining empty bed, which is the nearest to the door. He took off his coat and tie while answering Jang Shin.
"Well, I am a student, too. This trip is the last for us seniors, so of course I did my best to participate in the trip. Why else would I be here?" he replied cheerfully, as if it was a normal matter. He appeared unperturbed by the sudden tension within the room.
Linfeng's eyes looked coldly at the smiling man.
"What a thoughtful student. You are even willing to stay in the sa room as the butlers. The school's consideration is really unexpected. What a coincidence, indeed," he spoke. His tone was cold as he looked at the poisonous snake with the clothes of a saint, his face expressionless.
He was not a fool. Guan Gao Huan was a young master from a legendary family. His status was way above him and Jang Shin. There was no way that the school would carelessly place this young master of the highest upbringing and station with butlers like them who were considered of a lower rank. The school would never dare to do so in case they offend the person and his family.
Unless, the person himself asked for it.
Guan Gao Huan paused in his actions and turned to Linfeng. His golden-brown eyes narrowed.
"...You're right. Such a coincidence. Who knows I will be placed in the sa room with the two of you. Maybe... so I'll have soone to serve ?" Guan Gao Huan said jokingly. However, his words were full of thorns and ridicule.
The two young n's faces turned cold instantly.
What the f** did he just say?
Jang Shin closed the door. His usually amiable face was contorted.
This night would not be peaceful as he thought it would be.
