Xia Qiuru was completely baffled, her mind a blank!
"Alright, do you have any band-aids at ho?"
Su Chen then asked.
"Yes, yes!"
Hearing Su Chen's voice, Xia Qiuru snapped out of it and hurriedly responded.
Xia Qiuru stumbled into the room, closed the door, and leaned against it, her body going limp.
She touched her cheek with her hand, feeling as if her face was on fire, and her heart was pounding nonstop!
It took several minutes before she felt a bit better, and Xia Qiuru suddenly rembered she had co in to look for a band-aid.
When Xia Qiuru returned to the kitchen, she adamantly refused to let Su Chen stay there any longer, and, mustering all her strength, she pushed him out.
Su Chen pursed his lips and reluctantly went back to the couch, continuing to flip through the magazines he found boring.
After a while, Xia Qiuru hurried out and went straight to the main door.
"Qiuru, where are you going?"
Su Chen called out 'Qiuru' very naturally, as if he had done it many tis before.
"Oh, I just realized we're out of vinegar, I'm going to the supermarket to buy a bottle," Xia Qiuru paused then added, "Why don't you take a shower? Dinner will be in a while."
"Is that really alright?"
Su Chen asked awkwardly.
"There's nothing awkward about it, there's a new towel in the bathroom drawer, just take one and use it."
After saying this, Xia Qiuru hurriedly opened the door and left.
Su Chen really wasn't interested in those fashion magazines, and thought a shower might be more refreshing, so he went into the bathroom to prepare for it.
Su Chen took a blue towel from the bathroom drawer, then got ready for a shower!
"Cousin, I'm back!"
Just then, a playful voice suddenly ca from outside the door.
Imdiately, the bathroom door was pushed open, and a slender figure ca in.
Instantly, eyes t eyes, and both of them froze, the air seemingly stopping.
"Ah~~~"
A few seconds later, a sharp scream erupted abruptly!
"What are you screaming for, I'm still fully clothed!"
Su Chen said exasperatedly.
Hearing this, the woman slowly opened her eyes, and indeed, he was still dressed!
Actually, it was no wonder she yelled, anyone would be startled in such a situation!
Just as she was about to scold him, her eyes suddenly widened, exclaiming:
"Why is it you?"
"It's you!"
Su Chen also recognized the woman; she was the police officer from Jianghai Police Station—Xu Xinran.
"What are you doing here?"
Xu Xinran asked, looking wary.
"Officer Xu, are you sure we should chat here?"
Su Chen sighed helplessly.
Upon hearing this, Xu Xinran's cheeks flushed, and she quickly stepped out.
After Xu Xinran left, Su Chen finally started his shower.
At that mont, Xu Xinran was in the living room, feeling very strange. How on earth was this guy here?!
Stealing?
Impossible. Could it be that burglars nowadays are so bold that they not only steal but also take a bath at the owner's place?
Moreover, this guy's identity was extraordinary; it was impossible for him to be here to steal!
A mont later, when Su Chen had quickly showered and dressed, he found Xu Xinran sitting upright on the couch, in a posture ready to interrogate a suspect!
"Can we talk now, about what you are doing here?"
As soon as Su Chen ca out, Xu Xinran promptly asked, her eyes full of scrutiny.
"I wanted to ask you the sa? What are you doing here?"
Su Chen shrugged casually.
"I live here, where else would I be?"
Xu Xinran responded, clearly annoyed!
"You live here?"
Su Chen's eyes widened, remarking on the incredible coincidence!
"Now can you tell why you're here?"
Xu Xinran's tone was cold and serious, as if she were interrogating a suspect.
For her, the appearance of this man, who had left a deep impression on her, was just too bizarre!
Could this guy have so ulterior motive?!
"Qiuru invited here," Su Chen finally confessed.
"You're saying my cousin invited you here?"
Xu Xinran looked incredulous upon hearing this, but since he ntioned her cousin's na, it seed credible!
She knew well that her cousin always kept her distance from n.
It was unimaginable that today she had actually invited this man to her ho—it was truly extraordinary!
"Eh, Xinran, why are you back?"
Just then, Xia Qiuru ca back, surprised to find her cousin there.
At that mont, she too was puzzled; wasn't this girl supposed to visit her parents today?
Beyond her surprise, Xia Qiuru also felt sowhat awkward, as if she had been caught doing sothing naughty.
"Cousin, you've been naughty, huh! Bringing a man back ho while I was away!"
Upon seeing Xia Qiuru blush, Xu Xinran imdiately stood up and teased with a narrowed smile.
