Chapter 228: Chapter 147: I Will Take Responsibility for YouAfter that "lesson," Guo Mengyao finally behaved herself and stopped making inappropriate moves on Chen Feng. Chen Feng could at last quietly watch the movie. He considered himself a gentleman and wouldn’t actively pursue a married woman. This Hollywood blockbuster was surprisingly long, lasting two hours. By the time they left the cinema, it was almost two o’clock in the morning. At this hour, Chen Feng didn’t bother going home and planned to find a hotel to sleep in and return the next day. When Chen Feng mentioned it to Wu Mengting and Lin Yujiao, neither woman objected. As for Guo Mengyao, since she was a local in the county, she would naturally go back to her own home. Thus, Chen Feng planned to first drop her off and then the three of them would look for a hotel to sleep in. Chen Feng asked where Guo Mengyao lived and offered to take her home. To his surprise, Guo Mengyao said she no longer had a home in the county. Her parents had divorced over a decade ago and each had started new families; her father even had another pair of children, and her mother had stepchildren. She, the daughter, had become superfluous. Of course she couldn’t stay at her parents’ houses now. Listening to her story, the three of them felt some sympathy. Guo Mengyao was currently staying at the Yujing Hotel, so they might as well all go there to stay. None of them had any objections. Wu Mengting drove them to Yujing Hotel and booked two rooms. Chen Feng had a single room, while Wu Mengting and Lin Yujiao shared a double room, and Chen Feng paid for it. Two women sharing a double room was at Wu Mengting’s request, as it was much cheaper than booking two single rooms, and since Chen Feng was paying, it made sense to save him some money. Lin Yujiao naturally couldn’t object, and Chen Feng couldn’t very well suggest Lin Yujiao share a room with him in front of her and Guo Mengyao. Besides, it was already two in the morning, and Chen Feng really wasn’t in the mood for any hassle; a shower and sleep were his priority. He entered his room with a swipe of the card, stripped off his clothes, and went straight to take a shower. After a night of drinking, self-service dinner, singing, and late-night snacks, he felt sticky all over and a shower would be comforting. He didn’t wash his hair, and was done in a few minutes. Wrapped in a bath towel, he came out and lay comfortably on the bed; it was indeed quite nice. Snuggled under the covers, he closed his eyes ready to sleep when his phone’s ringtone sounded. He didn’t really want to answer it, but the phone kept ringing, so Chen Feng reluctantly reached out to check it—it was a call from Guo Mengyao, and his mind instantly cleared. This siren was calling at this hour, obviously up to no good! Chen Feng answered the phone somewhat defensively, "Hey, whatever it is, let’s talk tomorrow." Chen Feng genuinely didn’t want any further involvement with this siren. Like he said, she was still a married woman in name. On this matter, Chen Feng still had his principles. Besides, he wasn’t short on female company. "Open the door, I need to talk to you," Guo Mengyao said directly, her first sentence already urging Chen Feng to open the door. "Whatever it is, let’s talk tomorrow." Chen Feng said and hung up the phone. But the ringtone sounded again very quickly. Chen Feng considered turning off the phone, but eventually answered it. After all, they were old classmates, and they had had a pleasant time together that evening. Besides, Chen Feng indeed had plans to invest in her company. "What’s up? Just say it over the phone," Chen Feng said, trying to be patient. "The hot water suddenly went out in my room. I’d like to shower at your place; I’ve been busy all day and feel sticky and uncomfortable. Help me out, I’m right outside your door. Hurry up and open it." Chen Feng’s eyes widened slightly. It seemed that Wu Mengting and Lin Wan had also said their room had no hot water last time, and then they came to his room to shower, that temptation... But Wu Mengting and Lin Wan probably had no hot water then, whereas Guo Mengyao was likely lying. "Hurry up and open the door. You’re a big man; you’re not afraid I’ll eat you, are you?" Guo Mengyao, getting no response from Chen Feng, couldn’t help but speak again with a tone of impatience and dominance. Chen Feng did have some fear of her "eating" him... After a few seconds of internal struggle, Chen Feng said, "It’s a bit inconvenient for me since I’m a man. Let me give Mengting a call and you can shower at their place." "Shit! Are you even a man?" Guo Mengyao got angry, "Stop hemming and hawing and just open the door, hurry up." Upon hearing that, Chen Feng got angry too, thinking do you really have to try if I am a man? So Chen Feng said decisively, "Alright, wait a second." He didn’t bother getting dressed, just wrapped in a bath towel he opened the door. Guo Mengyao was indeed waiting at the door; as soon as Chen Feng opened it, she pushed her way in, carrying a garment bag and with a fragrance wafting to his nose. Guo Mengyao, seeing Chen Feng only wrapped in a bath towel, paused and then gave him a flirtatious smile, playfully winking as she said, "I’m going to take a shower." With that, she went off to the bathroom holding her bag. This unexpectedly made Chen Feng pause, wondering if she really had come just to shower. Never mind—time to sleep. After closing the door, Chen Feng went straight to bed as it was already past two in the morning. But just as he lay down, the sound of running water started in the bathroom, and the wall of the bathroom was glass. Despite being frosted glass, the silhouette was still faintly visible in the light, making out some enticing shapes and movements.
