Looking at the entire set of clothes just taken off from Feifei, Chu Ge found himself at a loss for words. However, since he had already agreed to wash them, he started putting them into the sink, pouring so laundry detergent, and washed them one by one.
This little bit, compared to using a washing machine, hand washing could actually be faster, and they weren't any big items, all pretty easy to wash.
The dinner was quite lively, and after sending Feifei back, he even had to help her wash clothes. My character is just too good, sigh...
Within a few minutes, these things were washed clean, and the pleasant scent of lavender detergent filled the bathroom.
However, as the scent spread while he hung these items on the towel rack, Chu Ge felt that his own sll suddenly beca particularly distinct and pungent.
Glancing at the hairdryer in the bathroom cabinet, Chu Ge hesitated for a mont, but eventually took off all his clothes, turned on the bathroom heater, took a shower in Feifei's bathroom, casually got rid of the annoying bandages on him, washed his own clothes, and then started blow-drying them.
Sumr clothes are really thin, and just as the water droplets on Chu Ge's body dried in the air, his clothes were almost dry as well.
Though they were far from completely dry, Chu Ge didn't have ti to wait any longer. It was just him and Xia Feifei in the house; it was too comfortable. He simply put on the not yet fully dry clothes, tidied up the bathroom, and left Feifei's house.
As Chu Ge's footsteps sounded in the living room and the door clicked, Feifei, who hadn't been able to sleep at all, sat up in bed.
Standing in front of the neatly tidied bathroom door, looking at the few items of clothing washed clean by Chu Ge on the towel rack, Feifei's face was devoid of the usual carefree smile; biting her lip, she once again started to sob.
For Feifei, losing love was indeed sothing worth feeling sad over, but compared to the warmth and comfort Chu Ge brought her, that sadness was utterly insignificant.
"Chu Ge, I, Xia Feifei, must beco your woman!"
Muttering to herself, Feifei went to the balcony window, watching Chu Ge's figure with eyes full of determination until that warm figure gradually disappeared from her sight into the night.
When Chu Ge returned to the Huafu Garden District, it was already deep into the night. As he got out of the car and looked up, a smile inadvertently appeared on his face.
In the pitch-black stairway, the only lit place was on the fifth floor.
Taking the elevator to the fifth floor, as soon as the elevator made a swipe sound, the voice-activated lights in the hallway lit up imdiately. In the bright light, Chu Ge saw the door lamp lit at Qin Ruojing's house.
Despite the hallway lighting up completely when the voice-activated lights turned on, Chu Ge didn't find the door lamp unnecessary at all, because it represented soone still caring about him. That lamp was left on by Qin Ruojing or Qin Ruoying specifically for him.
This feeling was nice, making Chu Ge feel a warm glow from the bottom of his heart, as if... this really was his ho, and he was being thought of by his family.
Gingerly opening the door, Chu Ge had just stepped inside when the bathroom door was suddenly pushed open.
"Why are you back only now? Was the celebration party this long?"
"A colleague drank a bit too much, I gave her a ride ho."
Looking at the slender figure at the bathroom door, Chu Ge found it hard to determine whether it was Qin Ruojing or Qin Ruoying. Although judging by the tone, she seed more like Qin Ruojing, but to be safe, he decided not to use any nas.
"A female colleague, right? Why do you sll so nice?"
With a slightly accusatory tone, the woman, whether Qin Ruojing or Qin Ruoying, walked over to Chu Ge's side, sniffed him, circled him, and began to scrutinize him with an increasingly peculiar gaze.
Seeing her posture, Chu Ge had a pretty good guess that it was probably Qin Ruoying. If it were Qin Ruojing, she wouldn't likely use such a tone to ask these questions.
Indeed, Chu Ge's guess was quite accurate. Just as he was about to speak, Qin Ruojing's bedroom door opened.
"You're back?" Qin Ruojing's tone was very gentle.
Chu Ge offered an apologetic smile, "Yeah, I ended up waking you; sorry about that."
"Silly, is there any need to say that to ? Actually, I wasn't asleep to begin with; I was waiting for you."
Qin Ruojing smiled softly, looking so much like a gentle and virtuous wife that Chu Ge found himself admiring her acting skills.
"Sis, you really are sothing; why are you even interfering? I was trying to help you screen brother-in-law, and here you are getting involved. Now brother-in-law imdiately knows who's who. How am I supposed to help you gather intel like this?"
As Chu Ge and Qin Ruojing played the roles of a loving couple, Qin Ruoying pouted, looking completely frustrated.
Chu Ge burst out laughing, "I say, little Ying, I'm not so criminal, there's no need for 'screen' and 'gather intel' with , is there?"
Qin Ruojing also nodded, agreeing, "That's right, Xiaoying, stop ssing around here and go back to sleep."
"Sister! How am I ssing around? I'm helping you!" Seeing Chu Ge and Qin Ruojing united like this, Qin Ruoying couldn't help but feel even more frustrated.
Qin Ruojing smiled slightly, "Helping ? Helping with what?"
Qin Ruoying knocked on her forehead, with a speechless expression, "Sister, didn't you notice the scent of a woman on brother-in-law? It's really suspicious."
"Most of Chu Ge's colleagues are female, so having a woman's scent on him is normal. What's so suspicious about it? Don't make a fuss over nothing."
Hearing her sister say this, Qin Ruoying was even more speechless, "Sister, do you really trust brother-in-law that much? Look at the ti now! Aren't you worried that brother-in-law might be doing sothing behind your back that betrays you?"
"Xiaoying, of course, I trust your brother-in-law. If we don't have even this basic respect and trust between us, how could we possibly be together?"
Seeing Qin Ruojing's virtuous deanor and hearing her gentle and tender voice, Chu Ge secretly praised her in his heart, thinking that Qin Ruojing indeed deserved to be a chairperson, speaking so grandly and beautifully.
Facing Qin Ruojing's gaze, Qin Ruoying looked defeated, "Sister, is that really what you think? Are you that confident?"
Qin Ruojing nodded elegantly and calmly, "Of course. I know how good your brother-in-law is to . Besides, I'm not only confident in your brother-in-law, but I'm also confident in myself. Ordinary won simply don't have the ability to take your brother-in-law away from ."
This ti, Qin Ruoying was utterly speechless. However, just as she was about to shrug it off and return to her room, she suddenly stopped, showing a look of realization. Then she turned back to face Qin Ruojing and Chu Ge again.
"Sister, Chu Ge, I understand now, I finally figured it out!"
Seeing her sister's "I've succeeded" smile, Qin Ruojing instinctively felt that there must be a flaw sowhere, but she didn't show it on her face, maintaining composure and calmness.
Qin Ruojing furrowed her eyebrows, "Xiaoying, why are you being so impertinent again? How can you not call him brother-in-law and directly call him Chu Ge?"
"Because the relationship between you two is completely fake, so of course, I don't need to call him brother-in-law."
"Qin Ruoying, what nonsense are you talking about again? How is our relationship fake?"
"Because you don't care about him; otherwise, even if you're confident, you wouldn't be indifferent to the scent of another woman on him."
Seeing Qin Ruoying's smug face, Chu Ge thought what she said made sense. Qin Ruojing indeed seed too composed; even a tiny bit of displeasure or suspicion would make things feel more real than they do now.
However, from his position, he couldn't say anything. If he explained for Qin Ruojing, it would seem like he had a guilty conscience.
So, Chu Ge just stood aside and watched to see how Qin Ruojing would respond. If she managed to brush it off, he'd continue acting with her.
If they couldn't brush it off, it didn't matter. If the show had to end, he would pack up and go ho, enjoying so leisure and peace.
Under her sister's triumphant gaze, Qin Ruojing's expression froze.
Seeing her sister tongue-tied, Qin Ruoying's smile grew even more cunning.
"Sister, what's wrong? Can't answer?"
"Why wouldn't I be able to answer? I just choose to believe him and my charm. What do you know, little girl who's never been in love?"
Qin Ruojing was indeed a bit at a loss for words. Facing her sister's questioning, she had to brazenly repeat what she had just said.
As soon as Qin Ruojing finished speaking, Qin Ruoying retorted sharply, "Co on, you just ca out a little earlier than . Besides, it's not like you've been in love. I've been here for several days, and you two aren't even sleeping in the sa room. What kind of couple does that?"
"Before you ca, we slept together every day, but now I'm just having a cold."
"Yeah right, I saw you were fine from the cold yesterday, but still not sleeping together. You didn't plan to sleep in the sa room today either, did you?"
"Why wouldn't we? Otherwise, why do you think I'm up so late? I'm just waiting for your brother-in-law to co back and sleep with !"
Qin Ruoying was stunned, blinked her eyes, and her expression beca hesitant again.
After all, Qin Ruojing's words flowed so smoothly, her expression showed no shyness, and her words contained no hesitation, as if it was perfectly natural for her and Chu Ge to sleep in the sa room.
