Chapter 1331: Their First Interaction Together
The concierge served two piping bowls of beef noodles.
Mo Yixuan was famished, so he finished one large bowl of noodles in less than three minutes while He Xiyan barely ate one-third of her bowl.
She ate very slowly and she was so excited that she kept stealing glances at the man who sat beside her. This was the man whom she had been infatuated with for more than a year.
He was truly very handsome and no matter which angle she stared at him, she couldn’t find any flaws in his looks.
“Are you still hungry?” she asked softly. She noticed that he was scarfing down his food as though he was very hungry.
She hesitated for a brief moment before she scooped up a large scoop of noodles and tried to give it to him.
She didn’t place the noodles into his bowl because she wasn’t certain whether he would eat food that had been in her bowl.
He shook her head but he was still smiling warmly and his smile reminded her of a summer breeze.
“Go ahead. Take your time to finish your food,” he said.
He Xiyan took another few mouthfuls of the noodles. Frankly, this bowl of noodles didn’t taste very good and there weren’t a lot of spices in it, neither was it very spicy. It didn’t taste as good as the ones she could make, so she wasn’t a fan of it.
She stopped eating after she was halfway done with the bowl of noodles.
Then, she took the remote control from the desk beside the bed and turned on the television.
She wasn’t interested in watching television, but it was too quiet here that it made her feel nervous and awkward around him.
Mo Yixuan changed into a pair of disposable slippers that hung on the rack.
He looked at the washroom and took off his jacket and s.h.i.+rt after he made sure that it was clean.
“I’ll go take a shower,” he said before he entered the bathroom and shut the door.
He Xiyan was left all alone in the room. She quickly finished up her bowl of noodles and quietly called the front desk and requested for clean bedsheets.
She guessed that he would probably spend the night with her since he had gone to shower.
The sheets were soiled and her heart raced when she pulled open the blankets to reveal the red bloodstain. She quickly took off the bedsheets and the blanket cover and folded them into one neat pile. She seemed very embarra.s.sed and deliberately covered up the bloodstain.
Soon, there was a knock at the door and it was an employee of the hotel.
“h.e.l.lo, this is the bedsheets and blanket cover you requested,” the female employee said with a smile. “Let me help you with changing the bedsheets.” Then, she walked past He Xiyan and tried to enter the room.
He Xiyan’s eyes widened in surprise and she quickly stopped the female employee from entering the room.
“No, thanks!” she said as she waved the female employee off with an awkward smile.
He was still in the shower and might come out at any moment.
“I’ll do it myself,” she said and she suddenly started blus.h.i.+ng.
The female employee smiled her signature smile and said, “Alright, let us know if you have any other requests.”
He Xiyan nodded.
She returned to the room and quickly changed the bedsheets and blanket cover. Then, she placed the clothes he had taken off earlier on the night desk.
She leaned against the headrest and she could still hear him showering in the bathroom even though the television was turned on. Her heart skipped a beat when she heard the sounds stop.
Soon, the bathroom door clicked open.
He stood in front of her with only a bathroom towel wrapped around him. He had a very good figure. His back was straight and his tan skin gave him a healthy glow.
