After Being Pestered by My Gloomy and Clingy Roommate 41p2

Chapter 41: Forty-One p2

After her breakdown, Chu Qingzi, with red eyes, leaned over and cautiously, and with great cherish, kissed Yu Jiang’s eyes, which were completely dazed because she couldn’t process so much information at once.

“You already like me. Then from tomorrow on, can you like me a little more every day?

“I really, really want to confess to you.”

Chu Qingzi’s purpose for re-starting “Truth or Dare” had now been achieved.

She had successfully coaxed the “I like you” that she had not been able to hear at the villa out of Yu Jiang’s mouth.

She had originally wanted to take this opportunity to completely nibble her mouth swollen, but after the emotional catharsis just now, she temporarily lost interest in that.

Chu Qingzi rubbed her head and turned back into the gentle “Chu Qingzi.”

“Baby, are you sleepy? If you are, then let’s go to sleep. I’ll go hang the clothes and come back to be with you right away.”

She propped herself up, about to go out. Before she could turn around, her clothes were tugged by a hand.

What sounded was Yu Jiang’s somewhat surprised voice.

“I understood. You said you also like me, right?”

Chu Qingzi looked at her sideways, her already affectionate eyes becoming even softer because of her cute question.

“Yes, I like you.”

She gently took the hand that was hanging on her clothes and, as usual, turned it into a ten-finger interlock before continuing.

“I like you very much.”

The strength of their intertwined fingers tightened, bit by bit, as if the person who she didn’t know when she could truly have would also speed up the process of liking her more because of this.

“Yu Jiang, the one I like the most is you.”

As her voice fell, she leaned over and placed a light but deep kiss on her brow.

After the kiss, Chu Qingzi smiled at her gently.

“Is there anything else you want me to say?”

Yu Jiang shook her head.

Her eyes dimmed, only disappointed for a brief second before she recovered.

“Then I’ll go to the bal—”

Yu Jiang interrupted her with a red face, “If you also like me, then you can kiss.”

Chu Qingzi didn’t react. “Huh? Baby, do you like me kissing your forehead?”

Yu Jiang nodded shyly, then shook her head again.

“I like you kissing me, but didn’t you want to kiss here? If you also like me, you can kiss.”

Chu Qingzi’s “violent unbuttoning” behavior had caused the button used to fasten the collar to be directly discarded.

Now that Yu Jiang was taking the initiative to invite her, she naturally didn’t need to go through the complicated action of unbuttoning.

In front of Chu Qingzi, she slowly turned her just-closed collar to the sides.

The action was so fast that before Chu Qingzi could even blink, the lost and found snow had descended before her eyes again.

With a boom, a cannon made of all sorts of emotions exploded on the spot, leaving Chu Qingzi completely numb.

She trembled, “So, the reason you weren’t willing to get close to me before was just because you were worried I didn’t like you?”

Yu Jiang’s nodding action was frozen into one of the scenes she would never forget in this lifetime.

The irrational Yu Jiang poured out the secret she had also hidden in her heart for nearly a year without reservation.

“I always thought you didn’t like me, so I didn’t dare to do anything with you. I was just afraid that if you knew my feelings, you would no longer want to be friends with me and would just kick me away.”

Hearing her say this, Chu Qingzi was immediately aggrieved.

“Isn’t it obvious enough that I like you? I don’t want to compare us with others, but the situation is special now, so I can only ask you this.

“Let alone just simple friends, even other couples, most of them probably can’t do what I do for you, right?

“I can take care of you in all aspects, and I’ve shown it so obviously in all the details. How can you still think that I just see you as a friend?”

Yu Jiang huffed and glared at her in confrontation, “Because you’re good to everyone! I’m just one of the many you’re gentle to. How can I have the confidence to think that I’m the most special one!”

Chu Qingzi asked her, “You’ve known me for so long. Haven’t you noticed where the difference is?”

She was so aggrieved. If she had known they were in a mutual secret crush, she should have just gotten Yu Jiang drunk last year!

“When others ask me for help, which time did I not just solve it with money? I’ve had this personality since I was a child. I don’t like to have too close of a connection with others. Plus, my family is indeed a bit rich. As long as it can be solved with money, I’ve always done it this way.

“Think about it yourself. I’ve been your friend for so long. Besides personally doing things for you, have I ever spent time or energy on anyone else’s matters?”

Ever since Yu Jiang had mentioned the matter of Cheng Yan to Yu Mianying, she had never forgotten it.

At this moment, even though she was drunk, she still remembered.

Now was a good time to use it to slap her in the face.

“You still say no! At the beginning of our freshman year, you personally accompanied Cheng Yan to the hospital in the middle of the night and didn’t come back until the next morning. I still remember this!”

This matter was a bit far back for Chu Qingzi—she didn’t have a very good memory for things that were not related to Yu Jiang.

But this matter, in essence, was not unrelated to Yu Jiang, so she quickly remembered.

“The reason I took the initiative to offer to go with her was because I knew that if I didn’t, the one who would offer to go with her would definitely be you.

“And I didn’t personally go with her. I just took her downstairs and then had another girl go with her to the hospital. After I took her, I came up. Why didn’t you know this? Because you were already asleep at that time!” Chu Qingzi was so wronged she wanted to cry.

Yu Jiang was unmoved. “In the middle of the night, where did you find another girl to specially go to the hospital with her? It was only a week after school started!”

Chu Qingzi: “That’s because I specially spent a thousand yuan to hire someone in the group!”

Even the drunken Yu Jiang couldn’t help but be shocked by this price.

“Oh my god! So much?”

She stammered, “Alright, then I can understand where the girl came from.”

Chu Qingzi was very aggrieved, but her persona of being good to her was unchanged.

“I don’t want you to do these things. I have money. My money is all for you to spend. So besides this, can you find a second thing I’ve really ‘personally done’?”

Yu Jiang didn’t speak anymore.

Two seconds later, she said with a lack of confidence, “I don’t have a brain right now. It’s normal for me to not remember.”

Chu Qingzi rubbed her head, as if in “retaliation.” “Then when you’re sober, I’ll help you find it. If you can’t find it, then you have to date me. You know?”

Yu Jiang: “Then what if I find it then?”

Chu Qingzi started to speak to her in a gentle tone again. “Baby, this question will only have one result.”

Yu Jiang wiped her face with the back of her hand. Hearing her speak like this, her face was a little hot.

“Then do you still want to kiss?”

Chu Qingzi reached out and re-fastened her open collar. “I’ll go get you a new set of pajamas. We won’t kiss tonight.”

Yu Jiang pouted, a little unhappy.

She was completely one-track-minded now, speaking directly and sharply, “Why? Now that you know I also like you, you don’t think you need to cherish it anymore, right?”

Chu Qingzi really wanted to know how her brain worked.

She sighed, full of helplessness.

“I promise you, every day from now on, I will like you and cherish you more than the day before, okay?”

“As for why I don’t want to kiss now,” Chu Qingzi paused, “our first time, you should be sober to feel me, right?”

Yu Jiang instinctively sensed the dangerous meaning in her words and subconsciously nodded.

Chu Qingzi rubbed her head.”Then I’ll go get you your pajamas. If you have anything else to say, we can talk after I come back, okay?”

“Yes.”

When Chu Qingzi came back, Yu Jiang was already lying obediently in bed, asleep.

She looked at the pajamas in her hand, casually placed them aside, and carefully climbed onto the bed.

Just as she had turned off the light and lain down, before she could reach out and pull the person towards her, Yu Jiang took the initiative to nestle into her arms.

She was not completely asleep yet and mumbled another confession.

“Actually, I wanted to sleep with you.”

Chu Qingzi: “I know. It’s my fault. I should have been a little braver. That way, I wouldn’t have made you suffer for so long.”

Yu Jiang’s head, which was buried in her heart, shook. “I’m not suffering. Liking you has always been a very happy thing.”

She curved her lips. “Thank you for always liking me and for being willing to like me so much.”

Yu Jiang was silent for a moment, then asked her again.

“What if I can’t remember tomorrow?”

“Tonight is the premiere. If you can’t remember tomorrow, I’ll replay what I said tonight for you.”

Yu Jiang got a satisfactory answer, didn’t speak anymore, and completely fell asleep.

After waiting for a long time and not hearing an answer, Chu Qingzi, who knew she was already asleep, whispered a gentle good night in her ear.

Yu Jiang slept until almost ten o’clock before she woke up in a dark room.

For a moment, she didn’t realize this was not her room, until she smelled a clear and cold fragrance that did not belong to her.

She couldn’t help but, under the cover of the environment, quietly bury her head a little lower and start to sniff this addictive scent.

After less than two minutes, the door was opened.

Chu Qingzi did not see her small movements. Seeing her with her eyes open, she called out to her.

“Baby, are you awake?”

Yu Jiang was so scared her soul almost scattered.

Her mind went blank for a moment, until Chu Qingzi opened the curtains.

The second the winter sun streamed into the room, Yu Jiang forced herself to calm down.

“Why am I sleeping in your room?”

Chu Qingzi, who was standing by the window, turned around. Her eyes as she looked at Yu Jiang were dark and unclear.

“Do you still remember what you did after you got drunk last night?”

Yu Jiang was scared by her words again, and her little face crumpled.

“Did… did I do something?”

Chu Qingzi smiled. “You were very good last night. You didn’t do anything.”

“Then did I say anything?”

Chu Qingzi dragged out the end of her sentence. “Um… you did.”

Yu Jiang’s heart had just been lifted when she heard her add, “You said you wanted to eat Wang Ji’s fried rice noodles for lunch.”

Chu Qingzi let out a laugh. “Is their rice noodle that good? You were still thinking about it even when you were unconscious?”

The mention of food brought Yu Jiang to life. “Of course it’s good. They don’t fry it too oily, and the taste is super fragrant.”

After speaking, she pretended to casually ask, “Is that all I said?”

Chu Qingzi didn’t answer, but asked in return, “Besides this, is there anything else you wanted to say to me but forgot?”

Yu Jiang quickly denied, “No, no.”

It was Chu Qingzi’s turn to ask, “You got drunk for the first time last night. Now that you’re awake, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”

Yu Jiang tried to shake her head.

“No. Maybe because I only drank a little last night?”

The mention of her little alcohol tolerance made Yu Jiang a little annoyed.

“My parents’ alcohol tolerance is quite good, but I turned out to be an exception!”

Chu Qingzi chuckled. “Then do you want to drink again in the future?”

Yu Jiang quickly shook her head. “No, no. Alcohol is not a good thing!”

It was a good thing she hadn’t “spilled the beans after drinking” last night. Just in case, she definitely couldn’t drink again.

Chu Qingzi: “You’re so good, baby. Then are you hungry now? If you want to get up, I’ll go buy you some rice noodles.”

Yu Jiang nodded. “Isn’t there also braised food next to their place? You can bring some of that back too.”

“Okay.”

Chu Qingzi had just closed the door and left when Yu Jiang reacted.

Wait, you!

You still haven’t answered me why I’m sleeping in your bed!

This question was not a very serious one, and Yu Jiang quickly put it out of her mind.

She lifted the blanket and was about to get out of bed when she saw the pajamas on her body, and her heart skipped a beat.

The next second, she pulled open her round collar and came face to face with her two white buns.

Damn it!

Why are we both human!

That person, Chu Qingzi, can shower herself when she’s drunk!

But she can’t!!!

Chu Qingzi, who had just entered the elevator, received a questioning message from Yu Jiang.

【AAA Baby: Where’s my rabbit button-up pajamas? Why don’t my pajamas and pajama pants match?】

【AAA Baby: I know. I showered myself last night, right?】

She replied considerately.

【You’re so smart, baby. You were very good last night. You didn’t need my help at all and showered yourself.】

On the other end, Yu Jiang, who had received the message, let out a long sigh of relief.

She called Chi Jing. By the time the voice call connected, she had already entered the bathroom.

Chi Jing’s hoarse voice was even rougher in the enclosed space.

“Good noon. Were you also buckled until the second half of the night before you slept?”

Yu Jiang almost stabbed the toothbrush directly into her mouth.

“What nonsense are you talking about! I got drunk last night, and then nothing happened!”

“Tsk, Yu Xiaojiang, you’re not good enough. You were already drunk. Why didn’t you just have a ‘drunken one-night stand’?”

“It’s a good thing I didn’t do that. Otherwise, being kicked out in the middle of the night would be very embarrassing.”

Chi Jing let out a laugh on the other end.

“Alright then. I won’t talk to you anymore. My throat is hoarse and uncomfortable. We’ll talk later.”

Yu Jiang’s ears were red.

Looking at Chi Xiaojing like this, how come it doesn’t feel like being buckled is a good thing?

The main character of that little video was screaming and crying. Could it all have been an act?

January 1st was a Friday, which meant that the next two days were also a holiday.

After the lunch break, Yu Jiang was nestled on the sofa watching TV.

Chu Qingzi had gone to the kitchen to cut a fruit platter for her.

Just as this episode had finished, Chu Qingzi’s phone, which had been casually placed on the coffee table, vibrated.

“Qingzi, someone is calling you.”

“Just answer it for me. If it’s anything important, just ask them to hang up. I’ll call them back later.”

Yu Jiang said “oh” and answered the phone for her.

The person who called was Chu Qingzi’s mother. Knowing that Chu Qingzi was busy now, she said she would call back later.

Yu Jiang said goodbye to her very politely. Just as she was about to put the phone back, she found that the screen had automatically unlocked.

This bug-like scene was far less shocking than the content displayed on the page.

This… this page…

Wh-wh-why is it her chat interface with the damn pervert…

Yu Jiang’s hands trembled. She scrolled up the chat history in disbelief.

The more she scrolled, the more her heart was in a mess. When she confirmed that Chu Qingzi was really the nameless pervert who pestered her every day and called her wife all day long, she finally noticed the footsteps she had ignored.

Yu Jiang looked up.

Chu Qingzi, who had come back with a fruit platter at some point, smiled at her with exceptional gentleness.

“Baby, you’ve finally found out.”
