Mobile Game Wife Comes Knocking

Of course, although Keqing had adopted a strategy of drugging him to push him down, she actually had no experience in that area and certainly wasn't enthusiastic about that kind of thing.

More than physical intimacy, Keqing cared more about getting ahead of the game with Ye Ming, taking a place in Ye Ming's heart before anyone else, being the first to try something new.

That way, in the future, when facing mere also-rans like Ganyu, Ningguang, and Hu Tao, she could proudly hold her head high, look down on them with pity, and mock, "Didn't expect that, did you? Ye Ming's first time wasn't with you, but with me, Keqing!"

Just thinking about it was incredibly exciting.

Of course, such a scene was just in her mind. Keqing didn't think she could actually do something like that. But ultimately, physical intimacy was just a means for her to win over Ye Ming. More than physical intimacy, Keqing wanted to be able to stay by Ye Ming's side, to be with Ye Ming. That was true happiness.

For this, Keqing was even willing to give up her favorite 996 work schedule, even willing to use such despicable means as drugging him.

So, even if Ye Ming unexpectedly regained consciousness, she would never give up!

Besides, was Ye Ming really awake?

Keqing secretly sized up Ye Ming: flushed cheeks, glazed eyes, swaying body, and...

Keqing glanced down, feeling relieved and a little shy at the same time.

"It's okay. I actually just arrived in this city a couple of days ago and haven't had time to find a place yet. I just happened to book a suite at a nearby hotel. Saying I'm helping you to a room to rest is just a convenient excuse for me."

Keqing said with a natural expression.

She didn't invite Ye Ming to her room right away because Keqing knew that such an invitation would be too strange. Ye Ming wouldn't agree, and it might even make him wary.

"I see. Then let's go together."

Ye Ming didn't suspect anything. It was common for executives of international corporations like Keqing to book long-term suites in hotels.

However, when Ye Ming and Keqing arrived at the hotel where Keqing was staying, they received an awkward message from the front desk: the hotel was fully booked and had no rooms available.

Ye Ming frowned when he heard this.

He had been getting drunker on the way, his head was dizzy and faintly aching, but his body was unusually hot. Perhaps because his body control was insufficient due to drunkenness, he was already having trouble keeping things under control.

"How about you rest in my room for a while?" Keqing suggested tentatively, without batting an eye. "I happen to have booked a suite. You can choose a room for yourself."

Ye Ming rubbed his brow, refusing, "No need. Aren't there a few other hotels nearby? I'll just try another one."

"Then I'll come with you. I'll come back after you've booked a room. I'm a little worried about you in this state," Keqing added.

Ye Ming knew that she was worried about him, so he didn't refuse her kindness. "Then I'll trouble you."

However, Ye Ming went to several nearby hotels in a row, and they were either fully booked or under renovation. None of them had any vacancies.

After going around in circles, Ye Ming was dizzy, lightheaded, and a little unsteady on his feet.

Keqing also looked regretful. "Oh dear, I didn't expect the hotel business here to be so good. Not a single room available. How unfortunate."

"How about..."

"You should still rest at my place for a while. Don't worry, I rented a suite. You can choose a room for yourself."

"Then, I'll trouble you."

This time, Ye Ming, who really couldn't hold on any longer, didn't refuse Keqing's kindness.

"No trouble at all."

Keqing smiled and supported Ye Ming, pushed open the door, entered the room, and then, with a click, locked the door.

Chapter 42: Keqing, Technically Inexperienced but Very Hardworking

Ye Ming, whose mind was not at its best, heard the sound of the door closing and assumed that Keqing was just closing it normally. He didn't notice that Keqing had locked the door.

At this moment, he was trying to perk up and observe the environment of the suite.

It was an apartment-style suite consisting of two bedrooms, a living room, and a washroom. To the right of the entrance, there was also an open kitchen.

On the kitchen counter, there were many opened bottles of oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and other seasonings, indicating that Keqing had indeed lived here for quite some time.

On the desk in the living room was a laptop, with Keqing's stickers on it. Next to it was a stack of folders, some of which had been opened and scattered on the desk.

As for the two bedrooms, Ye Ming couldn't see the inside because the doors were closed.

To be honest, Ye Ming was already parched and so tired that he wanted to collapse and sleep, but after all, it was someone else's room, and he could only hold on until the host said something.

Fortunately, Keqing was a very observant and understanding girl.

"Are you tired? Quick, go rest."

Keqing very enthusiastically, even a little impatiently, opened the door to the left bedroom for Ye Ming, helped Ye Ming to sit on the bed, and, seeing Ye Ming's chapped lips, considerately said, "Are you very thirsty? Don't worry, I'll go out and pour you a glass of water."

With that, she turned on the desk lamp and went out to pour water.

The windows in the bedroom were tightly closed, and the curtains were drawn. Ye Ming shook his head and instinctively looked at the only light source in the room—the lamp on the bedside table—and then, unexpectedly, he found a full glass of water on the bedside table.

Wasn't there water here? Why did she have to go outside to pour it?

The doubt flashed by, and Ye Ming, whose mind was dizzy, didn't think much about it. He licked his chapped lips, picked up the glass, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Pfft! Cough cough cough..."

Halfway through drinking, Ye Ming suddenly dropped the glass, covered his throat, and coughed violently. His already red face turned even redder, almost bleeding.

This full glass was not water at all!

It was all freaking alcohol!

"Ha! Ha! Ha..."

Ye Ming opened his mouth, gasping for air, his mouth and throat burning, a wave of heat rising within him.

"Eh? What's wrong?"

Keqing, entering with a water glass, looked shocked at Ye Ming's state. She hurried to his side, supporting him, exclaiming, "Oh dear, you didn't drink all the wine on the table, did you!? It's my fault, I should have told you that the glass was wine, not water."

Keqing looked remorseful, holding the glass to Ye Ming's lips, "Quick, drink some medicine, drink some water to sober up."

Dazed, Ye Ming didn't hear what Keqing said. He simply took the glass, tilted his head back, and drank it all.

After the glass of water, Ye Ming's mind was at its limit. Although his reason told him that he needed rest, he was strangely excited, his body burning, a wave of heat running wild, eager to be released.

He desperately suppressed the desire that was about to explode, trying to turn his rusty, sluggish brain, organizing his words, "I, I'm fine, th-thank you. If, if there's nothing else, I'd like to rest alone for a while."

What's going on?

Keqing was stunned.

Why is he still rational after drinking so much medicine?

According to the script, shouldn't he have turned into a beast and pounced on her by now?

His body's reaction is obvious, so why is this happening?

Keqing was surprised, but at the same time, she felt a little proud.

As expected of my Keqing's man!

Keqing looked at Ye Ming, hesitated slightly, and bit her lip.

She couldn't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Since you won't pounce, then, then, then I'll give you a hand!

"Okay, then I'll go out first. You rest well, call me if you need anything."

Keqing smiled and stood up, pretending to leave.

Ye Ming naturally got up to see her off.

But for some reason, when he stood up, Ye Ming's legs suddenly went numb, as if struck by electricity. Already dizzy, Ye Ming lost his balance and fell forward, landing on Keqing.

Caught off guard, Keqing let out a suppressed gasp, her soft body defenseless as Ye Ming knocked her onto the bed.

The air froze.

One second passed, ten seconds passed, sixty seconds passed, the room remained deathly silent.

One minute, two minutes, five minutes...

Keqing, her face flushed, her eyes tightly closed, lying on the bed, ready to welcome whatever was coming, finally realized something was wrong. She turned her head with difficulty and glanced behind her.

Ye Ming had fallen asleep on top of her.

"You!"

Keqing was furious, but immediately, she adjusted her mindset.

She couldn't give up!

If she gave up today, where would she find such a good opportunity in the future!?

Was she supposed to abandon the finish line and go back to race Ganyu and Hu Tao from the beginning?

No! Absolutely not!

She had to take the initiative!

Keqing had always prided herself on her strong initiative, and this time would be no exception.

Keqing rolled Ye Ming to the side, got up, took off Ye Ming's shoes, and laid him on the bed. Then, she took off her own shoes, climbed onto the bed, knelt on one side, looking at Ye Ming's sleeping face, her eyes wandering, momentarily lost in thought.

Okay, even with Keqing's strong initiative, she was still a little scared and shy when facing this kind of thing, no, when doing this kind of thing. Of course, there was also a hint of confusion.
