Shi Guang raised her gaze as high as she could, trying her best to not lower her line of sight just in case she caught sight of something she didn’t wish to see. “Well…erm…Could I charge my phone at your house for a little?”

When he heard that, Lu Yanchen felt as though he had just heard something absolutely incredible, causing him to curl his lips into a smile. However, his voice was still indifferent as ever, “Charge?”

Shi Guang nodded her head.

Lu Yanchen raised his brows in surprise. “Can’t you charge at home?”

Knowing that he was asking the obvious, Shi Guang could only grind her teeth. However, she still replied in a polite tone, “Haven’t I already told you that my house has blacked out? The estate said that they will look for someone tomorrow to fix it.”

“Oh!” Lu Yanchen replied indifferently. He then reminded her out of goodwill, “Then, you should rest earlier.”

“My phone has no battery left,” Shi Guang waved her phone. No matter how she tapped the screen, it was all black.

“Why do you need your phone to sleep?”

Shi Guang really wanted to give him a kick in the shin right now. Why was this guy always so cold and unreasonable? Just what in the world did she see in him in the past?

Honestly, it was just that face of his. Other than that face, there was nothing likable about him at all. He was clearly trying to scare her earlier on, knowing full well that she was afraid of ghosts and stuff.

Lu Yanchen looked at her with a bemused look, an expression that had a little of everything in it. He then curled his lips into a seemingly yes and no smile. “…You want to bed me…”

Shi Guang raised her brows. “…What!”

“…here?”

Shi Guang, “…”

‘Can he not speak halfway?’

She truly did not want to bother with him anymore. She must have been struck in the head to even think of coming to his place to ask for help in charging her phone.

Just as she was ready to turn around and leave, Lu Yanchen pulled the door fully open. “Hurry up if you want to charge.”

Actually, Shi Guang really wanted to say no with a firm backbone.

However, there was a world of difference between accepting or not. If she headed over to the convenience store, she would need to walk for a couple of minutes. While there were lights in the neighborhood, it was dimly lighted in reality.

Coupled with the things that Lu Yanchen had said earlier on…

‘Forget it, forget it! I’ll just charge my phone at his place and return home to play with it a little before going to sleep.’

After she entered the house, Lu Yanchen returned to his bedroom.

Sitting on the sofa, Shi Guang placed her phone beside her to charge. The television was turned on, showing a boring drama series.

It didn’t take long before Lu Yanchen came out and sat at the bar top area. Placing his laptop on it, he poured himself a glass of wine as he stared at his laptop intently.

It was as though Shi Guang was invisible for the entire time. The latter did not intentionally bother him either.

The two people in the houses were just like two opposite hemispheres.

It was a really boring television series, such that Shi Guang was feeling drowsy just by watching it. Eyeing her phone, she found that it was only ten percent charged—this wasn’t going to last her long. She had no choice but to force herself awake and continue watching the television.

The Shi Guang of today was someone both mentally and physically burnt out, hence she was tuckered out long ago.

Despite her best efforts to hang on, her body slanted more and more until she eventually slid down as half her body slumped down while her head rested on the sofa’s armrest.

Noticing that no sounds were coming over from her side, Lu Yanchen cast an unnoticeable glance over.

At his angle, he could just nicely make out her legs. Because she was slumped down, her shorts were pulled up, revealing those smooth, white legs of hers. Coupled with that perfect curve of her waist, it was a dizzying sight to behold.

Lu Yanchen gulped down a mouthful of wine, suddenly feeling his body heating up.

He coughed out gently, seemingly trying to remind her…

But, Shi Guang was fast asleep and stayed in that position.

Lu Yanchen continued staring at his laptop. But for some reason, he just could not take in anything at all—his blood was just boiling through his body!
