Words:828Update:22/06/27 13:05:21
By the roadside, Xia Shangzhou flagged down a taxi and carried Lin Jiayi into the car. After reporting Lin Jiayi's home address to the driver, he realized that Lin Jiayi had run out of her house in her home clothes. She was only wearing slippers, and she didn't even have a thick coat on.
Lin Jiayi had always been a beauty freak … Even if it was just a simple trip to the supermarket to buy something, she would still choose a beautiful outfit before she would leave the house. What was wrong with her today?
Even though Lin Jiayi was so drunk that Xia Shangzhou had no idea what was going on, he couldn't help but worry for her.
She … must have met with something really upsetting, right?
It shouldn't be something related to work. After all, if it was something related to work, it had to be something really troublesome for her. His former colleagues would surely tell him about it … And for her, it shouldn't be something related to her personal life either … So, the only thing left was her relationship with Qin Ting … Did something happen between her and Qin Ting?
Indeed, only Qin Ting would make her sad, heartbroken, and drunk …
With such thoughts in mind, Xia Shangzhou couldn't help but feel a little sour in his heart.
Soon, they arrived at Lin Jiayi's apartment.
After alighting from the taxi with Lin Jiayi in his arms, Xia Shangzhou quickly rushed into the elevator and headed upstairs.
When they arrived at Lin Jiayi's house, Xia Shangzhou placed Lin Jiayi on the ground and entered the passcode with one hand.
Her passcode was her birthday. He had memorized it by heart, but no matter how many times he tried, he couldn't get the passcode correct.
Did Lin Jiayi … change her passcode?
Xia Shangzhou tried again, but the passcode was still incorrect.
Left with no choice, he tried waking Lin Jiayi up, but Lin Jiayi was leaning unsteadily on his shoulder, not knowing who he was or what he was talking about.
Eventually, Xia Shangzhou tried searching for Lin Jiayi's house key, only to realize that she didn't even bring her bag out.
It seemed like he wouldn't be able to enter her house … But he couldn't send her to the Lin Family Mansion either. If the people there saw her drunk like this, they would surely reprimand her the next day.
She couldn't go to the hotel either. She didn't even have her identity card with her, so she couldn't stay there even if she wanted to …
After a moment of contemplation, Xia Shangzhou could only carry Lin Jiayi back down the stairs, hail a cab, and bring her back to his home.
His home was no longer the house he used to rent, but the small apartment he bought with a loan two years ago. It was renovated at the beginning of the year and had been there for half a year. He just moved in last month …
Upon arriving at the entrance of his house, Xia Shangzhou took out his keys and opened the door. After which, he carried Lin Jiayi in and placed her on the sofa before walking to the door and closing it. After which, he opened the shoe cabinet and rummaged through it for a long time before he finally found a pair of slippers that he hadn't worn before. Walking over to her, he bent down and helped her change her slippers.
When he changed her shoes, his fingertips touched the tips of her feet, and he found that it was bone-chilling.
He picked up her slippers and squatted in front of her for a while. Then he got up and went to the bathroom.
Not long after, he walked over to her with a basin of steaming hot water. He knelt down again and carefully placed her feet in the basin.
