Chapter 162: Chapter 162: What Nonsense is This Man Talking About That Makes People Blush

Lu Youxi, annoyed, thumped her head and then put her clothes back on, her face red as she walked out.

"What’s wrong?" Seeing that her hair was still dry and that there had been no sound of water, Zhou Shuyan figured she hadn’t showered yet, so he asked.

"I forgot to bring my pajamas," Lu Youxi muttered, rummaging through her backpack for her nightwear.

She hadn’t had the chance to unpack her bags yet.

"Just tell me, I could have brought them to you," Zhou Shuyan unconsciously responded.

Lu Youxi: "..."

Is that appropriate?

They’re acting like a married couple!

Zhou Shuyan, seeing Lu Youxi’s reaction, finally realized that his remark might have been inappropriate; he touched his nose in a rare display of embarrassment and fell silent.

Lu Youxi, holding her pajamas, didn’t dare to look at Zhou Shuyan and quickly lowered her head to return to the bathroom.

Soon after, Zhou Shuyan heard the sound of the shower running in the bathroom.

It turned out that the sound Lu Youxi heard earlier outside was this.

No wonder he saw her face was especially red when she came out with the quilt.

He thought maybe the quilt was too heavy, or too awkward to handle, which made her face turn red.

But now it seemed that wasn’t the reason.

That sound... really led to wild thoughts.

Lu Youxi finished showering and when reaching for her pajamas, she suddenly realized she hadn’t brought a clean change of underwear into the shower!

The ones she had been wearing were already washed by her.

Lu Youxi: "..."

Why did she wash them so quickly?

It was all because she was used to living with her roommates at school.

They were all girls, there was nothing to hide.

Everyone wore their pajamas after showering without underwear underneath.

And with the earlier situation with Zhou Shuyan it...

really made her anxious; she felt as if her IQ had dropped to rock bottom, even walking could result in tripping over her own feet.

Lu Youxi put on her pajamas and could only start by blow-drying her hair.

Her hair was thick and long; it usually took around twenty minutes to dry completely.

That’s why Lu Youxi was lazy about drying her hair; usually, in the dorm, she just blew off the surface water and let it dry naturally.

But now with Zhou Shuyan around, leaving her hair wet might make her pajamas damp, which could reveal something even more embarrassing. Lu Youxi was forced to thoroughly dry her hair.

Zhou Shuyan had already prepared his bedding on the floor by the bed and continued to hear the blow-dryer running in the bathroom.

After a long while, Lu Youxi finally got her hair dry.

After combing it smoothly, she brushed all of her long hair to the front to cover the embarrassment of not wearing underwear.

Hopefully, Zhou Shuyan wouldn’t be able to see anything.

Lu Youxi took several deep breaths, but every time she resolved to leave the bathroom, she would lose her nerve.

Then she would take more deep breaths to calm herself.

It was like this, back and forth, for an unknown length of time.

Zhou Shuyan, growing a bit worried, finally couldn’t help but ask, "Youxi, are you alright in there? Is there any trouble?"

"No!" Lu Youxi quickly responded, afraid that a slow reply might lead Zhou Shuyan to think she had encountered some problem in the bathroom.

After answering, Lu Youxi realized Zhou Shuyan had just called her "Youxi," without even the formal addition of her last name, "Lu."

It was a bit too intimate.

But it was such a small matter, and it seemed petty to bring it up with Zhou Shuyan, making her seem like she was making a big deal out of nothing.

She could even anticipate Zhou Shuyan’s response.

They had known each other for so long and were friends; it wasn’t as if calling her "Youxi" was something strange.

Lu Youxi sighed; she was never such a timid person. Why was she hiding in the bathroom, too scared to come out?

In her past life, what difficulties hadn’t she faced?

What big scenes hadn’t she seen?

Especially when Lin’s company was on the brink of bankruptcy and she was commanded to save Lin’s.

In the business world, those old foxes bullied her for being young and female, thinking she understood nothing.

Many business matters excluded her.

Even many rivals thought she was young and easy to deceive, setting numerous traps for her.

She had never feared or avoided these challenges; she resolved each one and faced difficulties head-on.

Now, to flinch at such a small matter...

Lu Youxi despised herself a bit. She then looked down to ensure there was nothing inappropriate about her attire.

She had washed her entire set of undergarments and now wore only a pair of pajama pants with nothing underneath. Walking felt strangely draughty and extremely uncomfortable.

Lu Youxi turned around, twisted her head to check her rear in the mirror,

and saw nothing improper.

At least, to the naked eye, the embarrassment of her current state was not visible.

Lu Youxi felt slightly relieved, straightened her hair with her fingers to ensure it properly covered the front; she wouldn’t risk any accidental exposure.

The thin piece of her cotton pajamas, though not transparent, would highlight an embarrassing prominence without an undergarment beneath

Now, the long hair provided much-needed cover.

Finally, Lu Youxi opened the bathroom door and stepped out, seeing Zhou Shuyan already sitting on the bedding on the floor.

Zhou Shuyan looked up and saw Lu Youxi freshly out of the bath.

She was dressed in a long-sleeved, long-legged pajama set, wrapping herself tight, with only her neck, face, and the hands and feet sticking out from her pajamas visible.

Lu Youxi barefooted on the floor left light water marks.

Zhou Shuyan’s eyes inevitably fell on her feet.

Her skin was pale, her feet slim and white; even the veins on the top of her feet were visible through the almost transparent skin.

The freshly bathed Lu Youxi’s skin still had a hint of pink from the warm water.

She used her own personal care products and body wash, which left a slightly sweet and milky coconut scent.

Zhou Shuyan felt an intense dryness in his mouth, his gaze lingering on Lu Youxi’s face and unable to look away.

"You..." Lu Youxi felt uncomfortable under Zhou Shuyan’s stare, "Why do you keep staring at me?"

"You’re beautiful," Zhou Shuyan responded reflexively.

Lu Youxi: "..."

This man, what nonsense was he spouting in the middle of the night to make her blush?

Lu Youxi tried to ignore Zhou Shuyan’s presence, but the bedroom was quite small.

Zhou Shuyan sitting on the floor almost filled the remaining space.

With Lu Youxi’s belongings still unpacked in her backpack, she would need to pass close to Zhou Shuyan to fetch the clean change of underwear she had brought.

And next to Zhou Shuyan was the adjacent bed, leaving no room to pass.

On the other side, there was just enough space for her to squeeze through, a narrow gap where Lu Youxi, if not careful, might brush against Zhou Shuyan.
