Chapter 482: – Terrifying Thought
The hotel Xia Tian was staying at was pretty far from here. The taxi drove about twenty minutes before they finally arrived at the bottom of the hotel.
The hotel wasn't big, it was just a three story building located on the edge of a commercial street in the city center. About less than 200 meters away from the hotel was an entrance to the subway.
The location was really good, but the price was actually still pretty acceptable, 300 yuan a night.
Lin Jin's face was filled with despair as she followed Xia Tian into the hotel. She yawned by the side while watching him use his phone and confirm the reservation with the front desk.
After registering the two’s IDs, they followed the staff to room 304 on the third floor.
The room wasn't that big, but it was quite nicely decorated. The floors and furniture and stuff were all made of solid wood. There was even a huge TV. On the right side of the room was also a large floor to ceiling window with a set of sofas and a coffee table.
Anyways, it could be considered a good hotel. Although it still couldn’t compare to Lin Jin’s room in Guangdong, it was at least much better than the place Xia Tian was currently renting.
Lin Jin changed into slippers and directly flopped onto the large double bed. She yawned, lifted her head to look at Xia Tian sitting at the head of the bed, and asked: "You're not planning to sleep with me, right?"
Even though Xia Tian had scammed Lin Jin into coming here, he didn't seem to have any bad intentions. He gave a wry smile and said: "How about I sleep on the floor?"
"Fine by me."
Lin Jin rolled over and laid sideways on the bed. Her eyes were half opened as she looked at the ceiling light emitting a dim purplish glow.
It wasn’t as if she had never slept together with men before. Previously, she had even shared a bed with her younger brother Lin Chen for several days. Back in freshman year of college, before she met the black cat, she even used to often tease Wu Min and Wen Xuan to sleep with her at night or something. But now that she was a woman, she had to start paying attention to these things.
"You sleep in the bathroom tonight. I’ll lock the door from the outside."
Xia Tian was a bit dumbfounded. He turned to look at the bathroom. Although the bathroom was indeed pretty big and even had a huge bathtub, he would freeze to death sleeping in there, right?
"The bathroom should have a heater. Just cover yourself with some towels, you won't freeze to death. Don't worry." Lin Jin sighed again, sounding like she'd lost all hope. "Unless you actually want to sleep with me? Even if you don't mind, I do, okay?"
She casually pulled the quilt over herself, turned over, and slept on her side with her back to Xia Tian.
"Turn off the lights."
Lin Jin wasn't in the mood to say anything else. Even though she had slept quite a bit in the afternoon, all that gaming and walking, she was now so sleepy it felt uncomfortable.
After a while, the lights in the room went off, plunging it into darkness and silence.
Xia Tian was still sitting on the bed at the moment. Lin Jin could occasionally feel the bed move, but she didn’t bother with it anymore and just laid there, drifting off to sleep.
When she woke up the next day, it was around eight o’clock in the morning. She rubbed her eyes and sat up. Glancing at the head of the bed, she found that Xia Tian was nowhere to be seen. Looking down, she saw him currently lying on the floor with a towel covering his stomach. His mouth was slightly open as he let out light snores. He seemed to be sleeping quite soundly.
Well, he could be considered a gentlemen.
Although she had fallen asleep really quickly last night, Lin Jin was a light sleeper, especially since she wasn’t used to the bed and there was a man in the room. So if someone came and touched her hand, she would have probably woken up immediately.
Carefully sitting on the edge of the bed, she looked down at Xia Tian's sleeping face.
She had carefully observed him closely before, but now that Xia Tian seemed to be having a good dream. That usually stoic face actually had a silly smile, it looked really stupid.
Probably dreaming about something really nice?
Without thinking too much, she got off the bed, and went into the bathroom to wash up. When she came out, she found that Xia Tian had been woken up by her movements and was currently sitting on the floor, stretching and yawning.
"What time did you sleep last night?"
Since Xia Tian was already awake, Lin Jin straightforwardly turned on the TV, watching the morning news while asking: "You didn't do anything to me last night, did you?"
"How could I?" Xia Tian sat next to Lin Jin, still looking sleepy and listless, weakly saying "I probably slept around two last night."
"That late?"
"Yeah."
Xia Tian seemed to be very low on energy, his head drooping as he sat there. If she didn't talk to him for even a minute, he would probably start dozing off again.
"Why don't you sleep a bit more, I'll go out and buy some breakfast?" Lin Jin kicked off her slippers and sat cross legged on the bed. She then turned to look at Xia Tian beside her and asked again, "When are you leaving? Today's Monday, you took leave from work, right?"
"I booked a ticket for the afternoon." Xia Tian stretched again, abruptly jumped off the bed, and started moving around. "I'll go wash my face, I'm not feeling too awake."
"Can’t you just sleep a bit more." Lin Jin didn't get why Xia Tian was acting like this. "It's only seven."
"It's fine, I'll sleep when I get back. If I can't kidnap you back with me, then I’ll need to wait until school starts before seeing you again."
Why does that sound kinda corny?
So that meant, Xia Tian completely didn’t mind the thing where she used to be a guy?
Lin Jin frowned, watching him walk into the bathroom, and asked aloud: "You don't care that I used to be a man?"
"Why would I care about this? I'm not that old fashioned of a person." Xia Tian replied from the bathroom as he washed up. "Anyways, besides not being able to have kids, what's the difference?"
He made such a good point that Lin Jin was speechless.
"Like is like, why overthink it so much?"
Eh?
Why did she inexplicably feel like blushing and her heart racing?
Lin Jin frowned, watching Xia Tian wash up in the bathroom, her eyes narrowing slightly.
This Xia Tian, was for sure flirting, right?
After a while, Xia Tian came out of the bathroom. After washing his face with cold water, he did look a lot more awake.
"I'll go downstairs and buy you some breakfast." He didn't even wait for Lin Jin to say anything, turned around, and left the room.
Xia Tian actually took the initiative to buy something.
Lin Jin and Xia Tian had known each other for so long and although she had commanded him to go downstairs to buy food before, most of the time he would make excuses and only go if there was no other option. But today he was so proactive.
Clearly, he was doing whatever it took to flirt with girls!
And she was the one being flirted with.
Lin Jin felt a bit unhappy. If Xia Tian had always been this proactive, that'd be one thing, but his sudden attentiveness made her feel a bit uncomfortable.
But she wasn’t very against this whole waiting to eat breakfast thing.
Lying back on the bed and staring at the ceiling, a terrifying thought suddenly popped into her mind.
Maybe being together with Xia Tian wouldn't be so bad...
The f*ck?! That thought was so scary!
