"Stop! Don't run!"
A voice suddenly came from afar, but the person in front walked even faster. In no time, she arrived at the elevator door, her hand still pressing the elevator buttons.
The elevator didn't come down for a long time, and she became anxious. She glanced back at Cao Yu, who was running towards her, and her panic intensified.
"Come down, come down quickly, why isn't it open yet?" After a flurry of Ju Zi, the elevator finally made a "click-clack" sound, probably only reaching the second floor or so.
"Boom!"
A few seconds later, the door finally opened, and she took the opportunity to step inside. Then she hurriedly started pressing the button.
Just as the elevator was about to rise, Cao Yu rushed in and forced her into a corner of the elevator.
Cao Yu looked down at her, and the two remained silent, staring at each other.
The towering figure before her made Ju Zi feel breathless, her heart pounding, and her face gradually flushed with excitement.
When the elevator reached the fourth floor, the doors slowly opened, and Cao Yu took her hand and led her into the corridor without saying a word.
Cao Yu remembered that Ju Zi's room was room 403. After walking for a few dozen seconds, the two arrived at the door of room 403.
He asked with a serious expression, "Open the door, I have something to ask you."
Knowing she couldn't hide, she could only resign herself to opening the door. Since it was still daytime, the room was brightly lit, so there was no need to turn on the lights.
Cao Yu, who came in next, closed the door and, before Ju Zi could react, gently pushed her toward the corner.
The "wall slam" scene reappeared in the room once again. After a moment, Cao Yu finally spoke and asked.
"Last night... was it you?"
Ju Zi quickly shook her head, then looked at him pitifully and said, "No... no... it wasn't me!"
Good grief, I didn't even say what it was about and you already denied it. Who else could it be but you!
He took out a piece of red cloth from his Storage Soul Tool; he had just cut it off the mat that morning.
Upon seeing the cloth, Ju Zi suddenly became even more nervous. She then reached out and snatched the red cloth from Cao Yu's hand, putting it into her own Storage Soul Tool without hesitation.
"Still denying it was you." Cao Yu sniffed her hair carefully; it was definitely the same perfume from last night. A slight smile played on his lips as he said, "Why did you come to my room last night? Were you doing it on purpose?"
As soon as those words were spoken, Ju Zi couldn't hold back any longer. Her eyes began to redden, and tears involuntarily streamed down her face.
She said, feeling wronged, "On purpose? How dare you think that? I haven't even said anything to you yet."
"I just wanted to play a trick on you last night with chili powder and sauce, but I never expected... I never expected you to bully me like this!"
Ju Zi became more and more agitated as she spoke, her eyes fixed angrily on Cao Yu.
"Chili powder? Why did you come up with this prank?" Cao Yu was suddenly dumbfounded. He really couldn't understand Ju Zi's thought process. Why would she suddenly want to prank me? What kind of nonsense is this?
Ju Zi glared at him angrily, gritting her teeth as she said, "Who said you and Meng Hongchen were showing off your love all night, especially in public? You two were kissing in a restaurant! I really want to throw chili powder in your face!"
"Such a strong reaction, could it be... you're jealous?"
"Yes, I'm jealous, so what!" Ju Zi said loudly, her voice trembling with tears. Cao Yu could see that her beautiful eyes were still filled with tears, and there were traces of tears at the corners of her eyes.
She pushed him away. This time, Cao Yu didn't hold back. Then, Ju Zi sat on the bed, buried her head in the pillow, and cried sadly.
Cao Yu slowly walked over, then sat down beside her and softly comforted her, "I'm sorry, Sister Ju Zi, the room lights weren't on last night, so I didn't recognize you."
"Does saying sorry do any good? This is my first time..." Ju Zi was still a little angry. She had originally wanted to bury this matter in her heart forever, but she didn't expect him to find out in the end.
Ju Zi knew very well that Cao Yu must have mistaken her for Meng Hongchen last night, so she left Cao Yu's room early this morning.
I thought Cao Yu would remain confused forever, but reality always goes against expectations.
"I will definitely take responsibility for you," Cao Yu said firmly, taking her hand in his.
Ju Zi was suddenly stunned. She really didn't expect Cao Yu to say that, and she had even given up hope on the matter.
Having given her first time to someone she liked, Ju Zi was filled with mixed emotions.
Ju Zi kept staring into his eyes; the older generation says you can tell if someone is lying just by looking into their eyes.
A few minutes later, she was certain that Cao Yu wasn't lying to her, but she still said to Cao Yu, "Forget it, let's just pretend it never happened. I'll accept this loss."
The next second, Cao Yu pulled her into a tight embrace and whispered in her ear, "You're already my woman, Cao Yu's woman, so you can never escape."
Ju Zi snorted and laughed, "Then what about your Meng Hongchen?"
"To tell you the truth, I have more than just these few fiancées."
"Huh? What do you mean by that?"
Cao Yu chuckled softly, "That's exactly what I mean."
A fair hand reached out, suddenly clenched into a fist, and pounded hard into Cao Yu's chest. Ju Zi gritted her teeth and said, " Little Yu, you've got some nerve! How could I have ever liked someone like you?"
"Is it because I'm too handsome?" At this moment, Cao Yu fully displayed his shameless nature, and the effect was obviously very good.
The next second, I saw Ju Zi wipe the corner of her eye with her hand, and then she couldn't help but laugh.
She clenched her fist again and punched Cao Yu in the chest, but this time the force was obviously not as great as before.
Originally, Ju Zi felt a strong sense of guilt, fearing that this incident would affect her feelings for Cao Yu.
But the situation is clearly different now.
After a while, Ju Zi slowly raised her head because Cao Yu had gently pinched her chin with his hand. She was about to reach out and slap his hand away, but he stopped her.
The lines of sight intertwined in the air, making the surrounding temperature seem a few degrees hotter.
Cao Yu lowered his head and slowly kissed her. At this moment, Ju Zi's heart started pounding again. Her brain seemed to stop thinking, and she could only subconsciously close her eyes.
"Ugh!"
The two kissed, but her response was somewhat awkward.
The soft cushion supported the weight of the two people as they slowly slumped down, just as Cao Yu was about to discuss the philosophy of life with Ju Zi.
Suddenly, there was a loud knocking sound at the door.
" Ju Zi, aren't you up yet? I've been waiting for you on the beach for so long."
"Get up quickly, let's go play on the beach together."
Ju Zi opened her eyes, pushed him away, and hurriedly said, " Ke Ke's here, you'd better hide."
