Suppressing her shyness, she helped Jiang Yizhou take off his clothes, wiped his body with warm water, and changed him into pajamas. Ding Zhengnan was also exhausted, saying, "Next time, I won't let you drink so much. You sleep like a dead pig and don't even know how to seize such a good opportunity. Hmph!"
She poked Jiang Yizhou's face with her index finger, noticing that he had gained quite a bit of weight since they first met; he used to be lean, but now he had some flesh on him.
"Mm~~" Jiang Yizhou groaned in his sleep, startling Ding Zhengnan into stopping her "revenge" act.
This is what you get for being so clueless and drinking so much!
Feeling that her boyfriend wasn't as deeply asleep as she had imagined, Ding Zhengnan lay on her side, watching Jiang Yizhou's face. Once he regained his strength, she packed her things and quietly left.
"Sister Ding, are you leaving? Aren't you going to continue taking care of Jiang Yizhou?" Li Yue asked as she saw Ding Zhengnan walking out.
Ding Zhengnan replied normally, "Yi Zhou is fine and asleep now. I can't stay here; my family is waiting for me to go back!"
Watching Ding Zhengnan leave in a taxi, Qin Yi joked, "Why not take the chance for a little confusion? This is a great opportunity! I know very well that Jiang Yizhou values physical relationships!"
Li Yue was too tired to argue with Qin Yi and shouted back, "Hurry up and go back to sleep! I'm leaving."
She quickly left as well, leaving behind Qin Yi, who was somewhat sober but still dazed from the alcohol. "Seriously, I was just thinking of you!"
She recalled the days of sharing an apartment with Jiang Yizhou; they were quite pleasant. The problem was that it was almost too pleasant—like they were treating each other as guests separated by a wall rather than a couple.
Being so distant from a handsome and capable guy made her feel frustrated inside. However, her cultivated demeanor kept her composed most of the time. After drinking, she felt completely liberated and kept encouraging her friend to pursue her feelings for Jiang Yizhou—no hesitation, just go for it!
But Li Yue was still a proud girl; she would never stoop to being the third party in such matters.
Qin Yi was quite free-spirited and initially wanted to find a female roommate. Being friends with another girl would allow them both to be carefree and express themselves.
Who would have thought the landlord would find a male tenant? And not just any guy—he was incredibly proper and innocent. The progress between him and his current girlfriend was driving her crazy. At the same time, she felt she couldn't drink or act out; she couldn't let herself go.
Such resentment, such resentment!
“Ugh... Ugh ugh ugh... Ugh...” Hearing the sounds coming from Jiang Yizhou's bedroom, Qin Yi panicked as she returned to the residence. Everyone had left, and she was the only one left to deal with this mess. Why did he have to throw up now, when he could have done it earlier or later? Now that he had done it while she was still awake, there was no way to pretend she didn’t see it.
Qin Yi brought in some tools and entered Jiang Yizhou's bedroom. Upon seeing the situation, she realized that the bed was uninhabitable. There was vomit all over the blanket, sheets, and pillow. Fortunately, Qin Yi was a straightforward woman from Beijing and wasn’t easily disgusted.
However, she was a bit rougher than usual, perhaps venting her frustrations from the past few months. She first moved Jiang Yizhou's head to the edge of the bed so he could lean over a basin, then twisted his waist a few times, but there was no reaction at all.
With no other choice, Qin Yi decided to let him throw up as much as he needed. She removed the soiled sheets and pillowcases and tossed them into the bathroom. After waiting for Jiang Yizhou to finish throwing up, she helped him into the bathroom, filled the bathtub with hot water, and stripped off his clothes before placing him in the tub...
After completing this series of tasks, Qin Yi gasped for breath and took a moment to rest while glancing at Jiang Yizhou’s physique. She hadn’t expected him to be so well-built in every sense of the word. Ugh, what are you thinking about, Qin Yi!
After snapping herself back to reality, Qin Yi thought about resting for a bit before dragging him out of the bathtub. So she half-lay on the sofa... and fell asleep.
...
“Ah~~” Jiang Yizhou never imagined that having a driver and a girlfriend would make it okay to drink without worry. However, now he regretted drinking to this extent; he shouldn’t have let it get this far!
He was submerged in the bathtub, feeling sore all over and unable to muster any strength. He also felt extremely cold...
“Achoo! Glug... Glug...” With his mouth below water level, he accidentally swallowed several mouthfuls of bathwater—no wonder he had been dreaming about drinking water!
“Ding Zhengnan? Li Yue? Qin Yi? Is anyone there? Help me out!” Struggling to lift his head above water, Jiang Yizhou began calling out after soaking in the tub all night without knowing how much bathwater he had ingested.
Qin Yi vaguely heard Jiang Yizhou’s calls from the bathroom and immediately realized what was happening. She quickly sobered up from her drunken state and rushed into the bathroom.
Once sober, Qin Yi felt quite shy and embarrassed. She turned her head away as she reached out to pull Jiang Yizhou out of the bathtub. Then she tossed a towel at him before leaving the bathroom and apologizing from outside.
"Last night you vomited everywhere in bed, and both of them left, leaving only me... So after I put you in the bathtub, I got a bit tired and fell asleep until now!"
Jiang Yizhou struggled to move his body, sat up, drained the water from the bathtub, and wiped himself dry with a towel. He felt a bit guilty towards Qin Yi; after all, he was the one who caused her trouble, so she shouldn't have to pretend otherwise.
Wearing the clothes that Qin Yi handed over from outside, Jiang Yizhou, whose body was slightly swollen from soaking, didn't say much more. "Yi Jie, could you bring me some breakfast? Just some vegetarian buns will do!"
Feeling uncomfortable all over, he returned to his bedroom, found a blanket from the closet, and went to sleep on the sofa in the living room.
Qin Yi felt relieved. Living together with Jiang Yizhou was too constraining, but wasn't it right for him to be so reserved? Did it have to be that one must make crude jokes or break rules to feel good?
Because she usually presented herself as a well-behaved girl, giving off a quiet impression, she naturally didn't want to change her image in front of others.
"Okay, I'll bring it up to you in a bit!" Qin Yi said methodically as she washed up and got dressed, looking at Jiang Yizhou who was lying on the sofa with his eyes closed.
...
"Song Zong and Li Jian, I don't know much about the company either. I think we should hold a meeting first to understand the situation!" After arriving at the company, Ma Huateng immediately began gathering several executives to get an overview of things. Unsurprisingly, Jiang Yizhou didn't come after drinking so heavily last night; Ma Huateng chose to ignore it selectively.
