I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World

Chapter 165: Do you need a reason?

Views:

Water poured down in a steady stream.

Reaching out to turn off the faucet, Jiang Chen shook the water droplets from his hair, walked to the bathroom, casually pulled off a bath towel from the clip, wrapped it around himself and wiped it.

After taking a shower, I felt much better, as if all the alcohol and sleepiness had been washed away.

It's just that the lingering fragrance in the bathroom makes people feel a little physically embarrassed. While thinking this, Jiang Chen wiped his head with a bath towel.

But as he was wiping, the movements of his hands suddenly stopped.

By the way, this bath towel... is used by Xia Shiyu, right

When I think of the fact that this bath towel once wrapped a pure and pure flower, and wiped the dew on the branches and leaves countless times...

Looking at the bath towel in his hand, Jiang Chen's expression instantly became awkward.

However, at this moment, a shaky and blurry shadow suddenly appeared on the frosted glass on the bathroom door. Jiang Chen reacted and was about to stop him, but the bathroom door was pushed open first.

Click.

I saw Xia Shiyu, who looked haggard, holding on to the door frame with difficulty. Just as he was about to go in, he was stunned at the door.

The unclean things that appeared in her field of vision made her temporarily lose her ability to think.

It's hard to describe the expression on her face at this moment. Should it be said that she is sleepy? Still surprised? Still ashamed and angry...

Silence lingered between the two.

"Hi." Jiang Chen awkwardly broke the silence, moving the towel quietly with his hands to protect the parts he couldn't describe.

Maybe it was because of drunkenness. Or perhaps because the picture was so impactful, Xia Shiyu did not scream, but calmed down. Silently closed the door.

Looking at the door that had been closed again, Jiang Chen had a wry smile on his face.

"Uh... maybe I should have screamed?"

I kept doing it all the time, since I had already used it, and it was seen, so I just wiped it off.

Jiang Chen was shameless and continued to wipe his body clean with the bath towel, and then helped her rub the towel in the sink. Then I got dressed and left the bathroom.

Turning around the corner and coming to the living room, I saw Xia Shiyu already sitting on the sofa. When Jiang Chen came out. Her eyes immediately locked onto him.

Just when Jiang Chen was mentally prepared to be scolded as "Liu Busan" and "pervert", the expected anger did not come.

"Uh, don't you ask me something?" Jiang Chen was a little embarrassed by Xia Shiyu's silent look, so he carefully sat down opposite her. He asked slightly apologetically.

Xia Shiyu was still speechless. Through the moonlight outside the window, she could see the bright red lips trembling slightly on her cold and pretty face.

Too angry to show it

Jiang Chen racked his brains but couldn't figure out the girl's mentality at the moment. After the arrogant iceberg beauty woke up, she found herself lying on the bed, her clothes were messy, and the first button on her collar was unbuttoned. Then she found a man (pervert) taking a bath in her bathroom, holding the hand she had been wearing. Bath towel used...

No matter which way you think about it, she must be in a bad mood.

"Um. You're drunk." Jiang Chen explained awkwardly.

With her blank gaze, I didn't know whether she was in a daze or thinking.

"I saw you lying on the table, so I carried you back. Your car is still there. Remember to drive it back tomorrow." Seeing Xia Shiyu didn't respond, Jiang Chen continued.

"Why?" Xia Shiyu murmured dreamily as if she was reacting to this sentence.

"Why? There's no need to ask." Jiang Chen smiled bitterly, "I can't leave you as a girl there. You are still so drunk living alone, so you should be more careful. If a personal trafficker appears, , pretending to be an acquaintance of yours. They will carry you and sell you to the ravines, and you won’t even know it.”

Hearing this, Xia Shiyu looked over. He looked directly at Jiang Chen.

The silence lasted for a long time, and she suddenly asked out of nowhere: "Then will you come to save me?"

Stunned by this sudden question, Jiang Chen pondered for a moment.

"Yes."

"Why?" It was still the voice that sounded like a dream.

Is it expectation? Or maybe just confused

"Do you need a reason?" Jiang Chen sighed and asked softly.

Humans are not inherently rational animals, so why bother with overly demanding reasons

Xia Shiyu was obviously not very satisfied with Jiang Chen's answer. The pair of cherry lips were slightly pursed, and the slightly dull pupils seemed to be drunk.

Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, Jiang Chen coughed and continued softly.

"You're drunk. Don't drink so much next time and go to sleep."

Although it's unclear why she is obsessed with strange things, judging from this reaction, she shouldn't be angry

She stood up unsteadily, and just when Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief and thought she was going back to the room to sleep, she walked around the coffee table and stood in front of him.

"Who do you like?" The voice smelled of alcohol, and his tone had a bit of the "majesty" of President Xia.

Jiang Chen was once again stunned by the question that had no preface and follow-up.

With a wry smile, he didn't answer and didn't know how to answer.

In fact, he was vaguely aware of Xia Shiyu's feelings for him last time behind the scenes at the press conference.

Although he always puts on a cold look that repels people thousands of miles away, he is still like a child in his heart.

As for why I say this, because only children will regard coldness as maturity.

It would be fine if it was someone with the same lack of integrity, but as for Xia Shiyu...

She will definitely not accept that the person she likes has another woman, or even a "normal" woman would not. Jiang Chen asked himself, he had a good impression of her, but it was just a good impression. If he had to give up something for her, he asked himself that he couldn't do it.

"Me," Jiang Chen spoke hesitantly, but the next words were stuck in his throat.

"I won't listen." He shook his head. Her slightly messy hair swayed.

Suddenly, she made a move that dumbfounded Jiang Chen.

A white hand stretched out, and two green jade fingers boldly pinched his chin.

Jiang Chen stared blankly at the pair of starry eyes. The lips opened and closed slightly, gradually getting closer.

Reason told him that she was drunk and he should wake her up.

But looking at the alluring Yan Hong who was getting closer, he couldn't say a word.

Demonic thoughts were swirling in his mind, and Jiang Chen swallowed.

It was her who took the initiative anyway, and if she just pretended not to know...

But at this moment. The ringtone of the mobile phone disturbed the tranquility. Xia Shiyu's movements suddenly paused, and her intoxicated eyes gradually regained a trace of clarity. He looked waveringly at Jiang Chen who was so close.

"Let me answer the phone." Jiang Chen got up and ran away in embarrassment.

Xia Shiyu stood there blankly, her face gradually turning red, which was clearly visible even under the dim moonlight.

What on earth did I just do

The heat all over her body caused a layer of fine beads of sweat to appear on her back. The alcohol immediately dissipated with the sweat. He was also half awake from his drunken state.

Without thinking too much, she rushed into the bedroom without looking back.

boom!

There was a slamming of the door behind her, and Xia Shiyu fled into the bedroom.

Jiang Chen smiled bitterly and looked at the phone.

It was Aisha calling.

Jiang Chen put his hand on the wall of the entrance hall and pressed the connect button.

"Hello? What's going on?"

Ayesha actually called at this time, which made him faintly aware of an unusual smell.

... ...

Holding the swing stick in her hand, Yan Xiaoyan gently pushed open a door.

no one.

Shaking her head to her teammates behind her, she waved, signaling Lu Dahu to walk to the bedroom next door.

Even if the pace is suppressed. The sneakers still made a slight sound when they came into contact with the precious wooden floor.

Since they were not sure which bedroom Jiang Chen slept in, they could only use the stupidest method to search one by one.

As for Zhang Chao, he stayed on the first floor. To prevent Jiang Chen from escaping from the first floor. At the same time, he who was on the first floor turned on the shielding device to prevent the target from calling for help or calling the police.

Standing in the empty living room, Zhang Chao looked around.

The bright green vision in the night vision device made the darkness not so weird.

Looking at the home theater hanging on the wall, he was secretly speechless.

"85-inch 4K ultra-clear large-screen smart TV. I'm afraid this home theater will cost hundreds of thousands more." He muttered a few words to himself. He was also quite uneasy in his heart.

This was his first time to kidnap someone, and the person he kidnapped was not an unknown person, but a future technology chairman who wanted influence and money.

Now he can only pray that Xiaoyan can act cleanly and don't let that Jiang Chen see their appearance. If it weren't for Jiang Chen, I'm afraid there would be 100 ways to prevent them from staying in Wanghai.

They have no intention of silence.

Just when he was struggling in his heart, suddenly, a strong wind hit the back of his neck.

Before he could react, he lost consciousness and fell to the ground unconsciously.

the other side.

Yan Xiaoyan has arrived on the third floor.

In order to improve efficiency, she and Lu Dahu agreed to split up.

Just when she entered the gym, the room that was previously lit, a warning sign suddenly arose in her heart, and before she had time to think about it, she suddenly swung the stick behind her.

A "whoosh" sound broke through the air, and the attack obviously failed. Easily dodging the blow, Ayesha's eyes moved coldly.

Secretly thinking that something was wrong, Yan Xiaoyan raised her knees to block, barely able to withstand the lightning-like whip kick.

"Well!"

Heartbreaking pain radiated from the bones of the calf.

Cold sweat fell from Yan Xiaoyan's forehead, and fear suddenly surged into her heart.

They were not on the same level at all. She had played in national competitions before, but even in the final battle with the champion, she had never felt such power.

Quickly retreating, Yan Xiaoyan had already backed up to the window.

The bright moonlight outside the window poured into the room, and she felt that the light in her field of vision suddenly increased.

Pulling off the obstructive night vision device, leaving only the mask on her face, Yan Xiaoyan stared at the girl who approached her.

The girl is not tall, and can even be described as petite. Slightly curly long hair tied into a ponytail and an exotic pretty face, but this is not the point. What made Yan Xiaoyan feel flustered was that those cold eyes were like looking at a dead person.

That murderous intention is serious! ()<over-->
