Chapter 370 - The Storm under the Calmness (1/2)
“What’s wrong with you?” Jiang Rui asked when he stood there, “Your expression is strange.”
Chen Chen didn’t want to answer him. It would be more dependable to rely on herself than on that man. She bent over to bite on the rope twisted around her legs. From Jiang Rui’s angle, he could see her collarbone and those delicate and white meatballs that just came into his sight.
“Sit still.”
When Chen Chen was about to break her teeth, she heard Jiang Rui’s serious shout. She was so scared that she sat up and said, “What are you doing? It’s so scary.”
Jiang Rui quickly walked to her and tore the rope apart, “Get dressed.”
“I’m dressed.” Chen Chen stood up and jumped. Then her expression suddenly changed and she walked to the restroom. When she finished, she saw Jiang Rui still standing there. She thought for a while, and asked him in a low voice, “Did I sleepwalk again last night?”
“What do you think?” Jiang Rui lifted his eyebrows slightly.
Chen Chen nodded, “Then it was me who untied the rope, ran about and tied myself here again?”
“What do you think?” Jiang Rui kept uplifting his eyebrows and turned to leave. When he walked to the door, he added, “It is an illness which needs treatment.”
Chen Chen covered her face when she threw herself to the bed. Then she turned on the computer and connected with Ah Zi.
“It is five in the morning now in my place. If you don’t have anything important, I will post your naked photos onto the forum.” Ah Zi gazed at her with a big pair of glasses.
“Do I sleepwalk?” Chen Chen asked directly. Ah Zi paused for a second and then smiled coldly, “There was a time when I fell asleep, then you and Tuan Zi drew five tortoises on my face. Once you moved me to the bath tub, and…”
“Okay, okay!” Chen Chen interrupted her, “Forget it.”
Ah Zi was the type of person who wouldn’t wake up even in an earthquake, so she definitely wouldn’t know if she had sleepwalked. Besides, if Ah Zi really saw her sleepwalking, she might even open the door and let her walk to the street…
“The God of War said you sleepwalked?” Ah Zi understood, “Wow, tell me the whole thing from the beginning.”
Then Chen Chen told her.
“So you have slept together?”
“What do you mean by having slept together?” Chen Chen rolled her eyes, “We’ve only slept in one room. I sleep on the couch while he sleeps on the bed. Huh, he is not a gentleman at all, is he?”
Ah Zi nodded, “He is, of course. The God of War’s health is so important that he needs a good sleep! You don’t even use your brain, so it doesn’t matter where you sleep.”
“Hey, you missed the point.” Chen Chen waved her fist and said, “The point is whether I sleepwalk or not.”
“Haven’t you thought that he carried you to the bed?” Ah Zi accidentally hit the truth, “Maybe he has already fallen in love with you.” The woman on the other side of the computer got more and more excited that her saliva was spraying on the camera.
Chen Chen smiled strangely, “If you really think in that way, I’m really sleepwalking.”
“Ah, you have to be confident in yourself! Although you have a low EQ, you have a high IQ!” Ah Zi patted on the table all of a sudden, “Well, I almost forget. Last time you told me that the equipment in your school’s laboratory is quite advanced. Can you make some AH29 painkillers?”
“Does your friend want it?” Chen Chen had no lack of money at the moment and she was afraid that Jiang Rui might find out about her real status. So she had quit.
Ah Zi nodded, “I told him that it would be the last time and you had already quit.”
“Okay, when it is done, I will send it to you!” Chen Chen promised. She had to help Ah Zi, “But it has to be after the New Year.”
“Um, he is not in a hurry, either.” Ah Zi yawned and said, “I will go to sleep now. About your sleepwalking, I suggest that you shouldn’t sleep tonight and maybe you’ll know the truth behind the horror this way.”
Having turned off the computer, Chen Chen got dressed and went to have breakfast. Seeing Lu Qi sitting by the table and talking smilingly to Jiang Rui.
“Hey! Chen Chen!” She greeted like she was familiar with her, “Can I call you Chen Chen?”
“Do as you like.” Chen Chen wanted to find a seat that was the farthest to Jiang Rui. However, he acted like he knew everything in Chen Chen ‘s mind. He pulled the seat beside him and said, “Chenchen!” Then he smilingly looked at her.
Although the pronunciation was similar to her name, Chen Chen could guarantee that the name he called was Chenchen!
“Haha, thank you.” She made up a smile and sat down. When she was about to eat the omelette, Jiang Rui placed the porridge in front of her and said, “Get your stomach warm first and then you can eat the oily food.”
Chen Chen lowered her head and silently drank the porridge. Lu Qi looked at her with envy and contempt, “Officer Jiang is so caring to Chen Chen!”
“She is my wife.” Jiang Rui stared at Chen Chen with much love, which scared her so much that she almost threw the spoon onto his face.
Lu Qi touched her face and sighed, “Although I’m fine now, I still don’t know when the skin rash will disappear.” Her eyes stopped at Chen Chen and then brightened, “Chen Chen, let’s do facial together. It is close to the New Year, we can get manicured and a new haircut!”
“I never do those.” Chen Chen shook her head and ate up a dumpling with only one bite.
Lu Qi scolded inside that she was so stupid and only cared about eating. She still asked persistently, “How can you not do those? Officer Jiang is so handsome, and you should make yourself prettier for him!”
Before Chen Chen could talk, a dog’s bark came from the door. Hei Zi rushed in. It had intended to rush to the table because Tuan Zi would clean its claws every time they went back. However, as soon as it saw Lu Qi, it rushed directly to her and bit on her dress.
“Ah!” Lu Qi screamed, “Go away! Go away!”
Tuan Zi and Ying Cheng walked in and saw the scene. The little girl came up to them slowly on purpose and said, “Hei Zi, let it go.”
