When Qin Siyang returned to the room, Yu Ziying had already left, leaving only Hu Chan.
Hu Chan sat on the sofa in his pajamas, already washed up.
But he was waiting for Qin Siyang instead of going straight to bed like Li Tianming.
He was being awfully polite.
"If you're tired, go ahead and get into bed. I still need a while to wash up."
"No need. I'll just sleep on the sofa."
"The sofa?"
Qin Siyang glanced at the little sofa in the room.
Even with two of them pushed together, Hu Chan would still have to curl up his legs.
"You're already here, so don't fuss over the details. If word gets out that you slept on the sofa while staying with me, I'm afraid your followers will put me on the Forum and curse me to death."
Hu Chan thought that made sense.
His own reserve might actually cause trouble for Qin Siyang.
So he nodded in agreement. "All right. Thank you."
Since the day had been fairly leisurely and he was in a good mood, Qin Siyang soaked in the bathtub.
Qin Siyang noticed something interesting.
Most people understood baths to be a way to relieve fatigue, something you wanted after coming home exhausted.
Qin Siyang had initially thought so too.
Until he got a bathtub in his Private Suite.
He discovered that when he was exhausted in both body and mind, all he wanted was a quick hot shower before getting into bed and closing his eyes, bringing the damned day to an end as soon as possible.
It was usually when he wasn't that tired, or was even in a good mood, that he felt like spending half an hour filling the tub and adding bath salts, then soaking for another half hour,
