Chapter 156 - 156 156. God Assisted Attack of Rhee (1)_1

Chapter 156: 156. God Assisted Attack of Rhee (1)_1 Chapter 156: 156. God Assisted Attack of Rhee (1)_1 The rain continued unabated past nine o’clock, growing even more intense.

The dark cloud roiled in the sky, as fierce winds drove the large raindrops against Beijing. The sporadic thunderclaps and silver lightning made one’s heart palpitate with fear.

Jian Qing leaned against Quan Jingwu, silently watching the downpour through the floor-to-ceiling window. The window surface was covered with raindrops, everything looked as if it was shrouded in a layer of grey mist.

They had hoped to leave once the rain stopped, but now it doesn’t seem like the rain would let up anytime soon.

“Little Qingqing, why don’t you and Jingwu stay over tonight? It’s raining heavily this late at night, it would be too cumbersome to go home.” Rhea said gently, glancing at the weather outside.

The old Mrs. Quan also echoed, “Indeed, it’s too dangerous to drive in such heavy rain. Stay over for the night.”

Jian Qing looked up at Quan Jingwu, her eyes asking him for his opinion.

He stroked her long hair, his voice deep, “Let’s stay here tonight, we can leave tomorrow.”

“But, Snowball?” She had only prepared some food for Snowball before leaving home, which probably wouldn’t be enough for it until tomorrow.

“Don’t worry, I’ll have someone deliver its food,” he replied.

Jian Qing nodded slightly. It seemed she had no other choice.

“Jian Qing, how about you sleep with me!” Quan Yifei leaned towards her and invited her with a mischievous smile.

Quan Mingxuan looked at Quan Yifei with exasperation, grabbed her by the collar and pulled her over. “Feifei, are you out of your mind?”

Didn’t she see Jingwu’s menacing look? This girl didn’t have any clue, always trying to join in the fun.

“Second brother, why are you pulling me?” Quan Yifei turned to look at him, asking confusedly.

“Jian Qing is not going to sleep in your room,” Quan Mingxuan was forced to explain.

“Then where will she sleep?”

Quan Mingxuan looked up at Quan Jingwu, his smile cryptic, “Jingwu, what do you think?”

As his words fell, everyone in the living room looked at the two of them, their eyes sparkling with mischievous humor, awaiting Quan Jingwu’s answer.

Jian Qing, “…”

Shouldn’t they ask for her opinion first?

“Of course, she will–” Quan Jingwu looked up at her, about to answer slowly.

“Actually, I can just sleep in the guest room.” Jian Qing quickly replied. Whatever he was going to say would surely make her extremely uncomfortable.

“The guest room hasn’t been cleaned for a while, it’s probably dusty. Instead, how about this, Little Qingqing, Jingwu’s room is large, so could you bear with it and sleep there for tonight?” Rhea glanced at Quan Jingwu, then earnestly looked at Jian Qing.

Everyone was fighting to hold back their smiles. In her heart, Quan Yifei gave her aunt a big thumbs-up. This was why she admired her aunt. She was the best.

Jian Qing glanced over at the silent man beside her, cleared her throat, “Aunt Rhea, I’ll be fine. Just need a fresh set of sheets.”

“You’ll sleep in my room, I’ll sleep in the guest room,” Quan Jingwu’s purplish eyes flashed, he said lightly.

The involved parties had decided so no one else had anything more to say. A flash of regret crossed Rhea’s eyes. Such a great opportunity… wasted!

Once they were upstairs, Jian Qing realized that she did not have any sleepwear. She can’t possibly borrow Xiaojing’s clothes.

“What’s wrong?” Quan Jingwu saw her standing at the room’s entrance as soon as he came upstairs and asked her from behind.

Jian Qing turned around, her face showing a hint of helplessness, “I don’t have any sleepwear!”

Quan Jingwu, “Go borrow a set from Yifei first. I’ll have someone deliver yours tomorrow.”

How could she forget that Yifei was there? She slapped her forehead; she must be getting drowsy.

“I’ll go find her then.”

Just as she finished speaking, Quan Yifei’s footsteps could be heard rushing upstairs.

“Jian Qing, this is for you.”

She stretched out her hands, handing the bag in her hands to her.

Jian Qing, “What’s this?”

“Sleepwear. I bought these but haven’t worn them.”

Jian Qing raised an eyebrow and smiled, “How did you know I was about to look for you to borrow sleepwear?”

“I remembered it after I went back to my room.” Quan Yifei laughed, scratching her head. Seeing that Quan Jingwu was also present, she pulled Jian Qing aside and whispered into her ear, “The underwear is too big for me. You should be able to wear them.”

Jian Qing’s eyes twinkled. She remembered that Quan Jingwu was still standing behind them and felt the topic was somewhat awkward.

“Well, I’m off, good night!” Quan Yifei waved her hand, “thump thump” downstairs and back to her room.

Jian Qing took the bag and went straight to her room. However, just when she was about to close the door, she noticed that the man behind her was planning to follow her in.

“Jingwu?”

“My clothes are in there. I’ll go to the guest room to sleep after I take a shower.” After speaking, Quan Jingwu swaggered into the room.

Watching his retreating figure, Jian Qing had a sudden suspicion that something was amiss.

Quan Jingwu picked up his robe and walked lazily toward the bathroom. The bathroom door slammed shut behind him, making Jian Qing snap back to reality. She closed the door and walked into the room.

Opening the bag and pulling out its contents, Jian Qing suddenly had the thought of returning the clothes to Quan Yifei.

A white silk knee-length dress and a set of black lace underwear. Although the size was suitable, weren’t they a bit too sexy?

Hearing the gradually decreasing sound of water from the bathroom, Jian Qing hurriedly stuffed the sleepwear back into the bag.

Looking up at the wardrobe not far away, she put down the bag and walked over quickly.

Normal clothes and pants seemed to suit her better. After rummaging through the wardrobe, she finally found a set of black casual wear, though the size was significantly larger.

After some thought, it was still better than the thin dress. Even when she was at home alone, she seldom wore those sexy nightgowns, she usually wore more comfortable clothes.

“Sweetheart, what are you doing?” A deep voice sounded behind her, startling Jian Qing into nearly dropping the clothes in her hand.

Closing the wardrobe, she turned around to face him, and the sight before her dazzled her.

The man was wearing a loose, black bathrobe, exposing his firm and fair chest. The clearly defined muscles, under the illumination, exuded a seductively bloody charm.

Moving her eyes downward, the subtle outline of his abs was hidden yet enticing. A single glimpse was enough to imagine the well-defined abdominal muscles hidden under his robe.

“Is my sweetheart pleased with what she sees?” Quan Jingwu’s rich, deep voice sounded, snapping Jian Qing back to reality, her cheeks burning slightly.

“Cough, are you done bathing?”

Quan Jingwu hummed in affirmation, his gaze falling on the clothes in her hands. He smiled, “Sweetheart, why are you holding my clothes, are you planning to make me wear this tomorrow?”

Jian Qing remained calm, concealing the turmoil in her heart, “Jingwu, can I borrow these to sleep in tonight?”

“Didn’t Yifei give you some sleepwear?” Quan Jingwu asked intentionally, “Don’t you like them?”
