Chapter 13 – Spending the Night Together Part 1

It was very late at night when Zu Jin got home, but she was so hungry that she went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of instant noodles.

After cooking it, she carried the bowl over to the table and sat down. She had just taken a bite when she suddenly came to her senses.

According to what she had agreed with Yan Lin, she was supposed to go on a date with Yan Lin when she came back from the business trip today.

Moreover, Yan Lin also said that he would take her to see his parents…

It was too late today. But if Yan Lin took her home to see his parents when they meet tomorrow…

Zu Jin’s exhausted mind instantly became active.

Why did she suddenly feel like a scumbag?

Her boyfriend had planned for her to meet his parents, but her mind was still full of thoughts about work and she didn’t know she was nervous until the time came.

The most terrible thing was that she had no idea what to prepare in advance when doing such an important thing like meeting his parents.

Thinking of this, Zu Jin called Yan Lin at once.

As expected, Zu Jin still felt a trace of dissatisfaction from his tone of voice even though it did not sound unusual after they connected.

“Are you back from your business trip?”

Zu Jin chuckled. She thought Yan Lin usually appeared to have a good temper, but he was also quite frightening when he was really angry.

“Haha, yeah. Are you asleep?”

Yan Lin replied, “I am prone to insomnia, so I stay up late.”

Zu Jin listened to his low voice, and her heart that had been restless all day had unexpectedly calmed down without realizing it.

“I haven’t slept either. How about…you come here now and together…we will watch a movie or something?”

Could a man and a woman really watch a movie together in the middle of the night?

"

Zu Jin blushed when she finished speaking.

On the other end of the phone, Yan Lin was silent for a moment, and then asked, “Can you take tomorrow off?”

Zu Jin’s brain suddenly exploded. “Uh…I can take the morning off, but I still have to go to work in the afternoon.”

Yan Lin seemed to chuckle. “Okay, then I will really come over?”

“Come!”

So at eleven o’clock in the evening, Zu Jin was already too tired to go to sleep.

After hanging up the phone, she stood up, threw the remaining half of the bowl of instant noodles into the kitchen sink, and then rushed upstairs.

Because she didn’t like having outsiders at home, she only invited a cleaning lady to clean up on weekdays. However, the cleaning lady didn’t go to her upstairs bedroom.

That’s why Zu Jin’s bedroom had always been a bit of a mess. For example, there was a big pile of magazines and documents on the nightstand, and a few bottles of skin care products on the vanity, and the seat was also occupied by the clothes she threw on it. As for where her makeup was, it was because she had packed it away on this business trip, and she didn’t have time to take it out after she came back just now.

Zu Jin was under pressure to tidy up the bedroom. She stuffed everything that could be stuffed into the drawers and closet.

"

After tidying up, she felt that the room seemed to be presentable on the outside. After thinking about it, she took out a bottle of perfume and sprayed it several times around the bedroom.

When Yan Lin rang the doorbell, Zu Jin had just finished taking a bath and her hair was half dry.

As soon as Zu Jin heard the doorbell ring, she felt that her image in Yan Lin’s mind was completely gone.

She was not only an unfeminine workaholic, but also a scumbag who didn’t care about his feelings.

She was now an anxious…

Zu Jin stiffly put down the hairdryer and automatically changed into a skirt. After that, she went downstairs to open the door for Yan Lin.

Yan Lin was holding yellow roses in one hand and a large plastic bag in the other.

Zu Jin was excited to see him holding yellow roses, but as soon as her eyes fell on the plastic bag, she saw that it was filled with snacks and vegetables…

She didn’t know whether to start laughing or crying.

Sure enough, their love was so heartwarming!

After receiving the yellow roses, Zu Jin blushed.

“For me?”

As soon as these words came out, she immediately regretted it. What an idiotic question! Aaahhhh!

Do you want to expose your nervousness so obviously?!

Yan Lin raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, “Of course, who else can I give it to?”

Zu Jin gave him a bright look. She smiled and sniffed the flowers in her arms. Then, she turned around and let him in.

She stood at the entryway and waited for Yan Lin to change into slippers. Zu Jin immediately couldn’t help but lean closer and pressed him against the door.

“Oh.”

Yan Lin bumped into the door and groaned. Before he could even react, Zu Jin had already stood on her tiptoes and kissed him a few times.

Yan Lin put down the bag in his hand and put his arms around her thin waist with a smile.

The light in the entryway was a little dim, but now it seemed to be a good place for a passionate embrace.

It’s just that Yan Lin was too tall. Zu Jin had been kissing him on her tiptoes for a while and her legs and feet hurt. Even her lower back was a little uncomfortable.

She was in a daze when she pushed Yan Lin and whispered, “Stop…stop for a moment.”

“Hmm?”

Yan Lin’s voice was a little hoarse. He raised his head and loosened his arm around Zu Jin’s waist. Then, he saw Zu Jin take a deep breath.

Yan Lin immediately could not help but laugh.
