[2] The Warm Breeze is not as Warm as You

Chapter 295

Jennie was placed onto the couch. Her damp hair clung against her neck and her skin. Due to the alcohol, her eyes were red, and she could barely keep them open. She stared vacantly at the man who remained just as attractive despite being drenched by the rain.

Ever since that day when she spoke those words to him, she did not consider facing him once more. Right now, her mind felt dizzy, and her body was heavy. She decided to remain on the couch motionless.

Although Jennie drank a lot, her habits in the past few years made it easier for her to maintain some rationality. Even if she was drunk, she wouldn't speak nonsense. She really wanted to send this man out from her room. However, after raising her hand slightly, she placed it back down and did not say anything.

She was already drunk and had already vomited. All that was left to do was sleep.

As her mind became muddled once more, the man's voice rang: "You were caught in the rain earlier. Are you going to shower on your own, or should I take off your clothes?"

Jennie's mind came to a halt. She opened her eyes and struggled to maintain her consciousness as she stared at the man before her: "You..."

"Don't waste time speaking nonsense. Go in and take a shower."

Jennie watched him and turned to look at the bathroom behind him. She did not move. As the man finally leaned down to pick her up, she frantically avoided him as though she had come into contact with electricity. She stood up unsteadily and staggered into the bathroom. Due to the tipsiness, she could barely stand firm and had to lean against the wall for a moment before she finally entered and closed the door.

Right now, she had no mood for a bath. She decisively turned on the shower and stood under it. When she recalled that she had vomited earlier, she grabbed the disposable toothbrush and toothpaste provided by the hotel. After brushing for a long while, she couldn't tell if the scent of alcohol was still on her. She leaned down for a sniff but was unable to smell anything. She could only stand under the shower in a daze. Her gaze was still vacant, and it was impossible for her to remain fully conscious.

However, she remembered that Lisa was still outside and took a longer shower. Around thirty minutes later, Jennie put on a robe and casually rubbed her hair with a towel before stepping out. Her hair was still dripping water and it dampened the robe, causing her to feel slightly cold.

She took a shower after getting caught in the rain, but the man did not rush to take one himself. His soaked suit jacket had been tossed on the couch in the room, and as he was dressed in a black set of dress shirt and pants, he barely seemed any different.

Jennie stood by the bathroom door. She struggled to stand firm and could only turn to lean against the wall. She was slightly conscious as she said: "Most of my work in Jing City had been completed. Tonight, was the last social gathering I had to attend. It's probably because I can return to Seoul tomorrow that I accidentally drank too much, but I'm not unreasonably drunk."

Hearing that she wanted to return to Seoul tomorrow, the man did not show much reaction; only his gaze landed on her. As Jennie had just taken a shower and was tipsy, her complexion was slightly redder than usual. Her gaze was also somewhat vacant; it wasn't as determined and indifferent as when she had stood before him to proclaim that she no longer loved him.

She leaned against the wall and mildly added: "I've already booked my ticket back to Seoul. The flight leaves tomorrow afternoon."

The man remained calm as he sat there watching her mildly. Jennie raised her hand to touch her damp hair. When she came into contact with her drenched locks, she knitted her brows uncomfortably. She wanted to return to the bathroom to retrieve another towel but paused. As though she had thought of something, she said: "Did you hear about my visit to the hospital yesterday?"
