76: Chapter 76 Co-habitation Officially Begins 76: Chapter 76 Co-habitation Officially Begins “Maybe you could move in with !”
After Qin Lan blurted out this sentence, she didn’t know why the idea had suddenly popped into her head.
She had only t the man in front of her twice before inviting him to stay at her place, which seed to be quite an impulsive decision.
Hearing this from Qin Lan, Ye Xuan was also taken aback.
He widened his eyes and looked at her, amusely asking, “So, um…
Lanlan, I’d of course be happy to stay at your place, but are you sure it’s okay for us to move so fast?
What about your boyfriend?
Won’t he get jealous?
Am I not essentially cuckolding him?”
“What are you thinking about!”
Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Qin Lan’s face turned slightly red, but thankfully it was night, and there was no need to worry that he might see through her.
“I only asked because you don’t have anywhere to go, so I’m letting you stay here for a couple of days!
You’ll move out once you find a place, don’t misunderstand…” Qin Lan quickly explained, “And you’ve offended Sun Zetao, he’s bound to seek revenge!
I’m worried he’ll cause trouble for you, so you can lay low at my place for a while.
Don’t get the wrong idea!”
So that was it?
Ye Xuan showed a face of disappointnt, feeling rather disheartened.
Seeing Ye Xuan’s glum expression, Qin Lan was in a much better mood, a hint of a smile appeared on her face, “Let tell you, while you’re staying here, you’d better not have any other ideas!
We’re sleeping separately, just like last night.
You’ll sleep in my brother’s room, and without my permission, you’re not allowed to enter my room.”
After saying that, Qin Lan ignored Ye Xuan and turned to head upstairs.
Once inside, Qin Lan put down the books in her hand and said to Ye Xuan who followed, “Wait here for a mont, I’ll go and fix up your bed!”
From today on, it would be officially considered cohabitation, so it was necessary to tidy and organize so things.
However, as soon as she said this, Qin Lan suddenly realized that her words could easily be misunderstood.
Seeing that Ye Xuan didn’t react, she breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and went into the room to tidy up.
Ye Xuan sat down on the sofa, and a question suddenly ca to his mind.
Logically speaking, as a university lecturer, Qin Lan’s salary should be quite decent, so why would she live in a place like this!
Even if things were tight, she could share an apartnt, which would be much better than this place.
Ye Xuan wondered what could be the reason.
As he pondered, his phone suddenly rang.
He took it out to see that it was Lin Tong calling!
“Is my wife calling to check on at this hour?”
Ye Xuan felt a little guilty despite himself but answered the call anyway.
“Ye Xuan, it’s so late, where are you?” Lin Tong’s voice sounded tired, as if she was still working at this ti.
“Wife, I’m at a friend’s house, what’s up?” He glanced at Qin Lan, who was still tidying up the room, and whispered into the phone.
Sitting quietly in the dead of night, in another woman’s house, while his wife called to check on him—Ye Xuan couldn’t help but feel how strange the situation was.
“I’m working overti tonight.
If you don’t have a place to stay, you can co keep company at the Company,” Lin Tong said.
“Wife, I won’t co to the Company.
I’ve already moved in here, and there’s still so cleaning up to do.”
Ye Xuan hesitated, having promised Qin Lan, he felt awkward leaving at this point.
At the sa ti, he felt a twinge of guilt.
Lin Tong was still working late at the Company, and he wasn’t there to accompany her.
He felt he was falling short as a husband.
“Wife, please rest early and don’t exhaust yourself.
The Company isn’t just yours; let Lin Dongfang worry about it more,” Ye Xuan said with a furrowed brow.
“Alright, you don’t know what kind of person my dad is?
I’m still busy.
Rember to bring breakfast when you co to the Company tomorrow!” Lin Tong charged, then hung up the call.
“That Lin Dongfang, letting his daughter work herself to the bone for the Company while he enjoys himself.
Seems like it’s ti to help my wife clear out the Company’s cancer,” Ye Xuan thought with a flicker in his eyes as he put down his phone.
“Ye Xuan, help move these things into the next room.”
Just then, Qin Lan ca out, handed Ye Xuan a large box, and went off to the washroom.
When Ye Xuan ca back, he saw Qin Lan’s bedroom door open and went straight in, ready to see if there was anything he could help with.
But as he entered the bedroom, he stopped short.
There were clothes scattered all over the bed, and a faint fragrance filled the room.
Just then, a graceful figure bumped into him.
“Ah!”
Qin Lan exclaid, her high heels wobbled, and she lost her balance, toppling over to the side.
“Watch out!”
Ye Xuan reacted quickly, reaching out to catch Qin Lan.
“Get out of here,” demanded Qin Lan, pushing Ye Xuan out of the bedroom and slamming the door shut with a bang.
Only then did she breathe deep with relief.
