Love You Till the End-Chapter 984 - 983: Last Night, the Two of Us Together...!?

Su Jiuyi tried to recall what happened last night. She had never fallen asleep outside or in someone else’s car, but last night she didn’t resist the drowsiness that came over her, which showed that she really had no guard against Shi Aoju, and she trusted him completely.

Thinking about the scene where Shi Aoju carried her from the car into his own room, Su Jiuyi suddenly felt that all her awkwardness and anger with him last night had vanished into thin air.

Even if Shi Aoju was just an ordinary superior and subordinate to her, and could still be so nice to her, she would accept it no matter what.

She glanced at the clock on the wall. It was just six o’clock, but there was no sound in the room or the adjacent bathroom and living room. It seemed Shi Aoju had already left, or perhaps he went out again after placing her here last night.

She sighed, dragging the hem of her dress as she got out of bed. On the floor were the high heels she took off in the car last night, which Shi Aoju brought back with her after putting her in the room.

It had been too dark in the car last night to see clearly, and now she realized the heels had indeed rubbed blisters on her feet, and they were hurting, so it seemed she could only walk barefoot.

She held her high heels and tried standing up from the bed, but after just two steps, it felt like needles were pricking her soles.

The carpets in Shi Aoju’s room were very expensive and comfortable, yet she still found them uncomfortable. Walking onto the cold hallway floor might hurt even more.

Su Jiuyi took a deep breath, ignoring the discomfort in her feet, and gritted her teeth as she walked towards the door.

Just as she opened the door, she saw Shi Aoju standing outside, about to open it.

Her legs went weak, and she almost fell, but luckily she grabbed the door frame in time.

"Why are you back?" she asked, poking her head out and glancing around, relieved to find that the maid hadn’t gotten up to clean yet.

Shi Aoju looked her up and down, then calmly said, "This is my room. Why can’t I come back?"

"No, no," Su Jiuyi quickly explained, "I mean, didn’t you go out?"

"To get a document." He brushed her hand off the door frame and coldly left those three words before walking straight in, leaving a flustered Su Jiuyi behind.

Less than a minute later, Shi Aoju came out of the study and, seeing her still standing at the door, raised an eyebrow in confusion and asked, "Why haven’t you left yet?"

Su Jiuyi awkwardly rubbed her hair and, feeling a bit embarrassed, said, "Um... thank you."

Watching her pale cheeks turn pink, Shi Aoju suddenly felt like teasing her.

He cleared his throat softly, walked up to her, and said, "Thank me for what?"

"Thank you... for letting me stay." Her eyes drifted as she thought and pondered an appropriate wording.

"Hmm." Shi Aoju said seriously, "Apart from snoring, talking in your sleep, and kicking me off the bed at midnight, everything was fine."

What?

Su Jiuyi jerked her head up, looking at him in disbelief, and instinctively shouted, "Last night, we... together...!?"

Actually, for her, this wasn’t the point. After all, Shi Aoju didn’t do anything to her; she just slept deeply, not drank too much. If someone did something to her, she would have felt it. It was just the snoring and sleep-talking...
