Wasn't This What You'd Always Wanted?
The first thing Bai Luoming did upon returning to his room was to go to the bathroom and take a relaxing shower.
He soon emerged from the bathroom, wearing only a pair of casual shorts that reached his knees.
After quickly drying his hair, Bai Luoming lay down on the bed, enjoying the soft feel of it. Bai Luoming couldn't help but sigh, "It's so comfortable now, without having to deal with those strange women."
Then, as if struck by a thought, Bai Luoming muttered to himself, "Speaking of which, aren't there a lot of reborn characters these days? I hope Old Ji won't go looking for trouble with yanderes or anything like that..."
Thinking of this, he seemed to realize something, and a chill ran down his spine. He patted his chest, reassuring himself, "It's okay, I trust Lao Ji, it shouldn't be like that, and even if she's a yandere, she shouldn't be able to beat me."
After saying that, Bai Luoming stopped thinking about it and lay down on the bed, feeling the softness of the large bed, his mind gradually going blank.
Just as his consciousness was fading and he was about to fall asleep, there was a constant knocking on the door.
Thump, thump, thump.
The knocking wasn't loud, but it was enough to wake Bai Luoming from his drowsy state. He got up, rubbed his eyes, and called out loudly towards the door, "Who is it?"
However, after hearing his voice, the knocking did not stop; instead, it became even louder, as if urging him to open the door.
Bai Luoming felt somewhat helpless, but he still got up to open the door. To be honest, this hotel was great in every way, except that there was no peephole on the door, so he couldn't see who was knocking on the door.
With a question in mind about who was outside the door, Bai Luoming opened the door, but the person who came into view made him a little stunned.
Standing outside the door at that moment was March 7th. She was wearing a large, long coat that draped down to her smooth calves, completely covering her body.
Bai Luoming was slightly taken aback when he saw March 7th's attire, and asked curiously, "So it's March 7th. By the way, what brings you here now? And why are you dressed like this... uh..."
On March 7th, she looked up at Bai Luoming with a gentle smile and said, "It's nothing, I just missed you, so I came to see you."
Bai Luoming was somewhat surprised to hear this, as March 7th would never normally say such things.
Seeing Bai Luoming's silence, March 7th grew impatient and said, "What, I've already been so blunt, aren't you going to invite me in for a seat?"
"Ah, sorry." After saying that, Bai Luoming stepped aside to make some distance, standing against the doorway in a welcoming gesture.
"Hmph, you're smart to know what's good for you."
March 7th snorted coldly and stepped into the room.
After seeing March 7th go inside, Bai Luoming scratched his head, but didn't think much of it. Instead, he straightened up and closed the door.
But when Bai Luoming closed the door, the scene before him made him pause again.
March 7th had just taken off her oversized coat and was sitting on his bed, wearing only a bathrobe.
Her legs were crossed, and her hands were on her bathrobe, but they still couldn't hide her radiant beauty; one could vaguely see that forbidden, absolute territory.
Seeing this, Bai Luoming felt a surge of anger, swallowed hard, but he didn't show it. Instead, he sat down an arm's length away from March 7th.
Seeing Bai Luoming's reaction, March 7th's expression revealed satisfaction. However, since he was sitting so far away from her, a hint of impatience appeared between her brows. She turned around and gently moved closer to Bai Luoming, sitting right next to him.
As March 7th moved, her bathrobe opened and closed, revealing glimpses of snow-white skin.
Since March 7th was being so proactive, Bai Luoming felt awkward about moving further away. He could only chuckle awkwardly and ask, "Um, March 7th, is there something you need from me?"
"Can't I think about you or look at you if nothing's wrong? I didn't realize you were so domineering." Upon hearing this, March 7th glanced at Bai Luoming and said in a cold voice.
"Just curious. If it weren't for you, I would have fallen asleep."
So, it seems I'm in your way? Then I'll leave?
"No way, we're already here, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
"That's good," March 7th nodded, a satisfied look on her face. She glanced at Bai Luoming, who was sitting upright, before continuing, "Speaking of which, I do have something to ask you."
Upon hearing this, Bai Luoming immediately stood up with a snap and said, "Please enlighten me, Lord March 7th. I will answer all your questions without reservation!"
Seeing Bai Luoming's posture, March 7th found it amusing and said, "Tell me, what exactly did you do in the room? You definitely did more than just slack off!"
Bai Luoming's expression froze, unsure of what to say. After a moment's hesitation, he decided to continue with the March 7th answer, "Nothing much, I just played with Jade Abacus inside for a while, waiting for you to come back..."
"You're lying! The way Tingyun was looking at you earlier was practically drooling. Do you think I don't know what's going on with her?"
March 7th slapped her thigh hard and shouted at Bai Luoming. With her vigorous movement, her bathrobe could barely support her weight, much to Bai Luoming's delight.
"If you tell the truth now, I can let bygones be bygones. But if you lie to me again, then I'll show you what I'm capable of!"
What makes you so powerful that you can punch me in the chest with your little fists?
Bai Luoming thought to himself, but as soon as the thought arose, he realized something was wrong. With March 7th's terrifying strength, if he were to continuously punch him in the chest, he would have a very hard time surviving.
With that in mind, Bai Luoming no longer hesitated and openly told March 7th what had happened in the room. In his opinion, there was nothing wrong with telling people, since he had at least put up a fight.
March 7th sat quietly, waiting for him to finish speaking. Only when she was certain they hadn't made any real progress did she breathe a sigh of relief and say, "Hmph, at least you know what's good for you, otherwise... hmph..."
Listening to March 7th's words, Bai Luoming felt increasingly uneasy. Logically, March 7th shouldn't be this clever; she'd always been easy to fool before. Why was she acting like she'd suddenly gained superhuman intelligence today...?
Thinking of this, he tentatively said to March 7th, "Evernight, stop pretending, I know it's you! Little March isn't that smart!"
"Ha?"
On March 7th, he looked at Bai Luoming with an incredulous expression. What was this guy saying?
"What are you talking about? I think you're tired of living!"
Having said that, March 7th stood up, intending to give Bai Luoming a hard time.
But Bai Luoming reacted quickly, stepping forward to hug March 7th tightly, repeatedly apologizing, "I'm sorry, March 7th, I was blinded by greed just now, can you forgive me...?"
Perhaps Bai Luoming's movements were too large, because he directly wiped March 7th's bath towel onto the ground.
Feeling his body become smooth and bare, the anger he felt on March 7th vanished without a trace.
Seeing this, Bai Luoming closed his eyes, feeling that he was probably doomed today.
However, after waiting with his eyes closed for a long time, the expected verdict did not come. Seeing this, Bai Luoming opened his eyes in confusion and looked at March 7th.
March 7th was still standing there, somewhat at a loss, but then, as if she had made a major decision, she hugged Bai Luoming, buried her head in his chest, and said in a soft voice, "It's okay."
Bai Luoming's expression froze for a moment, then a surge of joy rose within him, and he asked incredulously, "Really?"
March 7th, still nestled in his arms, said in a slightly louder voice, "Isn't this what you've always wanted?"
