The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 399 I feel so at ease and safe.

Although Gu Yuexi was singing, her heart was pounding.

Zuo Yingying leaned against Lin Chen like a lazy cat, whispering intimately in his ear. Her uninhibited affection made Gu Yuexi slightly embarrassed, yet also filled with a strange sense of envy.

The reason why Zuo Yingying can be so open and affectionate with Lin Chen is partly because of her outgoing personality, but the most important reason is that she and Lin Chen have crossed that line in their relationship.

Whether a man and a woman have slept together or not makes a world of difference in their relationship.

While feeling envious, Gu Yuexi couldn't help but wonder if she and Lin Chen could take things a step further?

With these subtle and complex thoughts in mind, Gu Yuexi got drunk.

Zuo Yingying pinched Gu Yuexi's cheek, which earned her a silly mutter from Gu Yuexi, who didn't know what she was muttering.

"How did you get drunk so quickly? It seems you have something on your mind."

Zuo Yingying smiled and came closer, hanging around Lin Chen's neck.

Lin Chen felt a little flustered; Gu Yuexi was still there.

Zuo Yingying lightly touched the water with a dragonfly's touch, then chuckled as she stood up: "I'm leaving. Remember, happiness isn't something you wait for, it's something you fight for. Men, be assertive!"

Lin Chen watched Zuo Yingying walk towards the door: "You're just leaving like that?"

Zuo Yingying feigned surprise: "I'm not leaving. Are you suggesting I stay? Do you expect both of us to stay with you?"

Lin Chen was speechless; there was no way to respond to this woman's words!

Seeing Lin Chen's expression, Zuo Yingying chuckled and said, "Just kidding. You should know your place. I'm not going to stay here and become a nuisance. But if you can't handle Xiao Xi, you can come find me. You know where I live."

Zuo Yingying left lightly. Lin Chen looked at Gu Yuexi lying on the sofa, reached out to tidy up the few messy strands of hair on her forehead, then helped her up, let her put her hands on his shoulders, wrapped his arms around her legs, and carried her on his back.

"Hold on to my neck, don't fall."

Gu Yuexi, half asleep, wrapped her arms around Lin Chen's neck and rested her head on his shoulder, falling asleep peacefully.

When Lin Chen took Gu Yuexi back to the hotel, Gu Yuexi was already completely asleep. She turned over in bed and continued to sleep.

Lin Chen originally wanted to leave, but he was worried that Gu Yuexi might get drunk and cause some kind of accident, so he hesitated for a moment and decided to stay.

When Lin Chen woke up, Gu Yuexi was lying in his arms, staring straight at him with her eyes open.

"How long have you been awake?"

Gu Yuexi pursed her lips, her gaze somewhat evasive, but her expression was one of joy.

She slept in the same bed as Lin Chen!

They slept together all night! Although there was no inappropriate behavior, it has to be said that sleeping in Lin Chen's arms felt so reassuring and safe.

Gu Yuexi raised her face, gave him a light peck, and then buried her face in Lin Chen's chest.

"Just woke up."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Go wash up first to sober up. You smell like alcohol. I carried you back yesterday, and you were already sleeping like a little pig, so I didn't bother you."

"Ok!"

Gu Yuexi naturally smelled the strong smell of alcohol on her body. Feeling a little embarrassed, she got up and went to the bathroom. Soon, the sound of water began to run.

As Lin Chen lay on the bed, his thoughts drifted along with the sound of rushing water. Scenes of his acquaintance and friendship with Gu Yuexi flashed through his mind like a movie, softening his heart.

Should we try to take that first step?

Zuo Yingying's words echoed in Lin Chen's mind.

Happiness is something you have to strive for yourself.

Men should be more assertive.

Yes, as a man, I should definitely take the initiative.

The weather seems nice today, a bright and sunny morning. It would be quite lovely as the beginning of a relationship.

That’s it!

The sound of water stopped, and after a while, Gu Yuexi, wearing a bathrobe and a towel wrapped around her head, came out. Her fair legs, clad in slippers, were very alluring.

Water hibiscus!

Lin Chen felt that saying anything at this moment would only undermine the courage he had just mustered, so he didn't say anything, but stood up, walked over, and hugged Gu Yuexi tightly.

Gu Yuexi smelled pleasantly of shower gel.

Gu Yuexi's face flushed red instantly. She was at a loss for what to do, her body stiff as Lin Chen held her like this, her mind blank.

She saw the burning intensity in Lin Chen's eyes, and she understood what he was about to do.

She had actually been looking forward to this day, but when it actually happened, she was completely at a loss and had no idea how to deal with it.

When her soft skin felt the slight coolness of his hand, she finally came to her senses.
