Chapter 86: How Much Do You Remember About Last Night

The next day, dawn broke with a faint light.

At eight o’clock in the morning, the girl lying in bed slowly opened her hazy eyes, first gently rubbing the back of her head to alleviate the dizziness from the alcohol, and after looking around, she realized that somehow she had ended up back in her own bedroom at Gao Chuan’s house.

Memories from last night poured back into her mind; she remembered playing games with a group of people and then drinking, and then... kissing Dr. Gao in the restroom.

The girl recalled the embarrassing scene and patted her head hard, thinking how could something so outrageous happen, and lay back down to reconsider the events several times before she finally sat up in bed. After regaining her clarity, she hurriedly threw off the covers and discovered to her relief that she was still wearing yesterday’s clothes.

If that was indeed the case, then it must have been Dr. Gao who brought her back home yesterday. Thinking back, she raised her hand to her thin lips, the scene where Dr. Gao pinned her against the wall last night was still vividly before her eyes, including the cool touch, everything was telling her that it was real.

But why did this happen all of a sudden when they had just had a falling-out last week?

After considerable thought, Jiang An finally found a good excuse. Yes, that’s right, Dr. Gao had been drinking yesterday, so he took advantage of her, it must be so, she kept repeating to herself inwardly.

After a quarter of an hour of internal struggle, Jiang An finally got out of bed. Feeling slightly dizzy, she walked into the living room and could already smell the scent of steamed buns. Her steps involuntarily lightened as she sneaked into the bathroom.

If everything from last night was true, how should she face Dr. Gao now? Since he was drunk, he probably already forgot about it. Maybe she should just pretend she didn’t know, Jiang An thought as she brushed her teeth.

Anyway, Dr. Gao probably wouldn’t bring up such an awkward matter, so let’s just pretend it never happened.

By the time Jiang An finished washing up and came out, Gao Chuan was already sitting at the dining table, silently eating breakfast. The man was wearing a black sweater, and strips of sunlight fell on his body from the window. His cold, indifferent gaze suddenly shifted towards Jiang An, who was standing not far away.

Two baskets of steamed buns and two cups of hot soy milk were placed on the table, obviously waiting for her. The girl quietly took a deep breath and walked over, trying to act relaxed as she greeted Gao Chuan, "Good morning, Dr. Gao."

Gao Chuan looked up and saw Jiang An sit across from him, responding simply with a "Good morning," his deep black pupils dark as ink.

Jiang An was clearly on pins and needles, reaching for the steamed bun with chopsticks and nibbling lightly, with both parties tacitly falling into silence. She kept her eyes on the buns in her bowl, not daring to look at Gao Chuan’s expression.

Just when she thought she might get away with it, Jiang An’s phone suddenly rang beside her with Susu’s name on the display. She picked up the phone, stood up, and pressed the answer button intending to head back to the bedroom to take the call. A crisp voice followed, "Hello, Brother Wei Yan."

As she was about to greet Wei Yan on the other end of the phone call, Gao Chuan, who had rushed towards her, snatched the phone from her hand, and she was unexpectedly swept onto the dining table by his abrupt actions, trembling from the dominance. When she looked up again, the phone was already in the man’s hand, Gao Chuan looking down at her with no expression on his bright face, shaded by his thick eyebrows, his peach-blossom eyes reflecting the girl’s panic-stricken face.

"Dr. Gao..." Jiang An was forced to sit on the table, her hands bracing on its surface to maintain balance, her heart racing uncontrollably in response to the man’s sudden move.

Gao Chuan, staring at the charming girl in front of him, showed no mercy, hung up the phone call that Jiang An was making and tossed the phone aside. Looking down at the innocent-looking girl, he shook slightly and asked bluntly with a hoarse voice, "How much do you remember about last night?"

As they talked, he stretched out his arms and embraced the blushing young girl, his tone tinged with slight irritation.

The gorgeous sunlight streamed through the window and sprinkled over the deux, casting a long shadow on the surrounding walls. Jiang An couldn’t help but flush crimson upon hearing the man’s interrogative tone. Her astonished gaze settled on Gao Chuan, who loomed above her; what caught her eye were his slender, fair neck and his thin lips.

"Uh?" Gao Chuan couldn’t help but curl the corners of his mouth upon seeing the girl’s face full of question marks. He leaned in closer, shortening the distance between them by a step further, and the ambiguous atmosphere continued to ferment.

At such a close distance, Gao Chuan seemed to be able to sense the girl’s erratic breathing. The man discreetly swallowed.

As the girl bashfully attempted to bow her head, he reached out and hooked her chin, kissing her tender and moist lips in the next second. The moment their lips were sealed, Jiang An instinctively wanted to push the man away but lost her balance. Luckily, Gao Chuan quickly extended his arm around her waist just in time to prevent her from tumbling onto the dining table.

She thought she would be left breathless again, but this time Gao Chuan only lingered for a few seconds before withdrawing from her lips. Then, lifting an eyebrow, he looked at her and asked, "Remember now?"

His words were provocative, yet his calm voice lacked any ripples.

Jiang An belatedly realized that what Gao Chuan did just now was to help her recall her memory. Her eyes blinked, she took a deep breath, and stammered out meekly, "I... remember now."

It seemed that last night’s events did indeed happen, leaving Jiang An’s face blazing red.

This time, she had nowhere to escape.

Gao Chuan appeared satisfied with her answer. He did not let go of her; instead, he straightened the girl up a bit more, allowing her to sit upright on the table. Seemingly seeing through her worries at that moment, he spoke each word deliberately, reminding her, "Jiang An, I’m not drunk right now."

His warm voice brushed past the girl’s ear, and she swiftly raised her apricot eyes, her small face aflame.

Dr. Gao’s words kept echoing in her head: he said he was not drunk, so that kiss just now...

"Jiang An, do you understand now?" Gao Chuan watched the person in front of him react like a startled fawn to his words and couldn’t help but be amused, his light laughter echoing softly in the still room.

Although Jiang An was somewhat slow regarding matters between men and women, she wasn’t oblivious enough not to understand the meaning behind a man voluntarily kissing her. Hearing the man’s straightforward question, her entire being flushed red, and she gave a small nod.

The man said little more, just softened his gaze slightly, and with a barely noticeable smile on his handsome face, he asked casually, "So, should we try?"

That one sentence - a question so calm, it made the room fall into silence. Yet, when the man spoke, he seemed exceptionally composed as if his heart was still utterly undisturbed.

But Jiang An was in complete disarray, her heart pounding as if it were about to leap out of her chest. Looking up into Gao Chuan’s tranquil expression, their gazes intertwined, each seeing themselves reflected in the other’s eyes.

At this moment, everything else paled in comparison; only he was in color.
