As soon as the old lady spoke, the matter was settled. Shen Yuanshan could only sigh and said nothing more. His words were insignificant and he could not change anything, not to mention that his father's words of dissuasion were useless.

At this time, in Jiang Chen's room, Liang Yuzhu was looking at her phone with a frown on her face, chatting with her roommate. She felt a little hot, and the room seemed to be getting hotter and hotter.

"Bang~" With a strange sound, the air conditioner above her head suddenly emitted white smoke and stopped working completely.

Liang Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the air conditioner. "Is this...is this air conditioner broken?" Although it was no longer summer, it was the peak of autumn, and the weather was particularly hot and humid.

"It's so hot!" Liang Yuzhu was already sweating profusely after staying in the room for a while. Her fair forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and her delicate facial features were tightly wrinkled. She pressed the air conditioner remote control again and again, but there was no response. This made Liang Yuzhu wonder, why did this air conditioner break?

Even though she had opened the window of the room, the wind blowing in was still hot. In this autumn, it was very hot even at night. What should I do without air conditioning in this outrageous weather? I couldn't sleep at all!
"it's too hot!"

Liang Yuzhu was sweating profusely at this moment, and she kept fanning herself with her hands to try to dispel the stuffiness. However, the weak wind was like a drop in the bucket, and it did not relieve her heat at all.

She frowned, looked at the air conditioner that was out of service, and complained inwardly. If there was no air conditioner tonight, she would probably have trouble sleeping.

Not long after, she decided to walk out of the room and ask someone what was going on with the air conditioner. After all, on such a hot night, without air conditioning, it was like being in a steamer.

She was wearing pajamas and gently pushed open Jiang Chen's door, but unexpectedly met Jiang Chen's grandmother. The old lady was sitting in the living room, fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan, and looking at the sweat on her forehead with a puzzled look.

"Grandma, the air conditioner in my room seems to be broken. It doesn't cool at all." Liang Yuzhu explained a little embarrassedly. After all, the problem occurred when she was using it.

"Oh, that air conditioner has been used for more than 20 years, it's normal for it to break down." Grandma comforted, but then she showed an embarrassed look, "But there are a lot of guests at home today, and the room is a bit tight."

Liang Yuzhu was even more anxious when she heard this. How could she sleep without air conditioning in such a hot day?

Grandma seemed to see her worry and suggested, "Qingyu, why don't you bear with it for a while and stay in the same room with Xiaoyi for one night?" As she said this, a hint of teasing flashed in grandma's eyes, but she quickly covered the upturned corners of her mouth with a palm-leaf fan.

Liang Yuzhu hesitated for a moment, but thinking that this was the only solution at the moment, she nodded: "Okay, that's the only way."

Seeing this, grandma smiled with satisfaction, turned around and left, fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan. At the end of the corridor, Jiang Chen's family hid behind the door, watching this scene, feeling secretly proud.

At this time, Jiang Chen was listening to the knock on the door outside the guest room in confusion. Who could it be at this late hour? Several possible candidates flashed through his mind, but he finally locked his target on Liang Yuzhu.

He got out of bed and walked to the door, ready to open it. However, when he opened the door, he was stunned. He saw Liang Yuzhu standing at the door shyly, holding the quilt, like a kitten waiting to be taken in.

"You... Qingyu, why are you here?" Jiang Chen withdrew his hand awkwardly and asked in confusion.

Liang Yuzhu lowered her head and spoke in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "The air conditioner in my room is broken, so my grandma asked me to sleep with you." After she finished speaking, her cheeks were already red with shame.

Jiang Chen was stunned when he heard this. How could his air conditioner, which he had used for many years, suddenly break down? He was full of doubts. However, when he saw the light in his grandmother's room on the second floor, he seemed to understand something. All of this was probably the "masterpiece" of his family.

He sighed helplessly and turned aside to let Liang Yuzhu in. In this situation, he couldn't just kick Liang Yuzhu out, right?
The two of them were awkwardly in the same room. Although they were already familiar with each other, they didn't know what to say in this special situation. The room fell into silence for a while, with only the sound of the air conditioner humming.

In order to break the awkwardness, Jiang Chen finally spoke: "Um... Qingyu, how do you feel about coming to my house today?"

Liang Yuzhu nodded gently, her voice still as thin as a thread, completely different from the confident look she had when Jiang Chen went to her house.

Jiang Chen quickly rolled up his quilt and spread it on the floor. "I'll sleep on the floor tonight and you'll sleep on the bed. We'll sleep separately, don't worry." He thought Liang Yuzhu was afraid that he would have any improper thoughts about her, so she was trembling like a frightened deer, so he directly dispelled her concerns.

"You sleep... on the floor?" Liang Yuzhu looked at Jiang Chen's busy figure. Although her voice was still tense, she gradually relaxed.

"Yes, I sleep on the floor." Jiang Chen answered as a matter of course. He and Liang Yuzhu are now just classmates and friends. Although the times are no longer as feudal as in ancient times, as Liang Yuzhu's friend, he cannot do anything out of line.

However, just as Jiang Chen was about to make the bed, Liang Yuzhu suddenly said, "Actually, you...you don't have to sleep on the floor. We can sleep together."

Although the voice was low, it was like thunder in the sky, which made Jiang Chen stunned for a moment. He looked up and looked at Liang Yuzhu in confusion.

"What? You want me to sleep with you?" Jiang Chen couldn't believe his ears. Why did Liang Yuzhu suddenly become so bold? Or did she think she was a "good guy" who didn't pose a threat? But he was a young man. How could he remain indifferent to a beautiful and slim woman of the opposite sex?

"You... do you look down on me?" Jiang Chen pretended to be angry and said, "Sleeping in the same bed with me, are you trying to test my willpower? You are playing with fire!"

Hearing this, Liang Yuzhu hurriedly explained: "Oh, what are you thinking! I mean, this bed is a double bed, it should be enough for the two of us to sleep in. Besides, we are not covering ourselves with the same quilt, so we can put another quilt in the middle."

As she spoke, Liang Yuzhu's cheeks flushed again. In fact, she was still muttering in her heart: It's not like they haven't slept in the same bed before, what's the big deal! Jiang Chen got drunk that time and secretly climbed into her bed! However, Jiang Chen was drunk and unconscious that time, so naturally he didn't remember it.

"Is this really okay?" Jiang Chen still looked at Liang Yuzhu uncertainly. He certainly didn't want to sleep on the floor, which was cold and hard. If Liang Yuzhu really agreed to let him sleep on the bed, that would be great.

"Yeah." Liang Yuzhu raised her head, looked at Jiang Chen firmly, and nodded. She muttered to herself: Is this Jiang Chen teasing her on purpose?

After getting Liang Yuzhu's permission, Jiang Chen was overjoyed and returned to bed with the quilt in his arms. Seeing this, Liang Yuzhu couldn't help but shrink back into the bed, looking a little nervous and shy.

"You can't cross this line in the middle." Liang Yuzhu pointed at the bedding between the two of them, having already drawn a boundary with the quilt.

"Don't worry, I probably won't go over there." Jiang Chen assured with a smile, but then added, "But if I go over there, hehe, you have to be careful." He deliberately teased Liang Yuzhu and found it very interesting to see her scared and shy look.

Liang Yuzhu glared at Jiang Chen and pretended to be angry and said, "If you dare to come over, I will beat you up!" She raised her little fist and pretended to hit someone.

Jiang Chen chuckled and begged for mercy: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore, let's go to sleep." As he said that, he turned off the lights.

The soft moonlight shone through the window onto the bed, and the bedding of both of them was illuminated softly and warmly. Jiang Chen was wrapped in the quilt, and there was a faint fragrance in the air, which was the body fragrance of Liang Yuzhu, which made him feel hot. In this sultry weather, his body reacted unconsciously.

He tried to suppress his irritability and whispered, "Are you asleep?" He wanted to ease his embarrassment and impulse by chatting. However, the room was silent, with only the sound of the air conditioner running and Liang Yuzhu's even breathing beside him.

Jiang Chen took a deep breath, trying to calm his excitement. At the same time, he felt a little disappointed by Liang Yuzhu's silence. But he understood that they both needed to calm down and rest, so he gradually fell asleep. Liang Yuzhu caught Jiang Chen's voice and slowly opened her eyes, but did not respond immediately. She glanced at the slightly raised quilt next to her. Because of the quilt covering her, she could not clearly see the boy lying beside her.

However, she could clearly hear the boy's breathing, which was a little heavier than usual, making Liang Yuzhu keenly aware that Jiang Chen's heart did not seem as calm as his words.

This was the first time she was in the same room with a sober man.

Although she was full of admiration for Jiang Chen, her heart was pounding with joy. She wondered if Jiang Chen...if he really wanted to do something, should she obey him?

She knew very well that Jiang Chen was a strong young man. If he really wanted to act forcefully, her resistance would probably be futile.

But if it really comes to that, will I...will I fight back with all my might?

Or should I just let things take their own course and fulfill his wish?
Liang Yuzhu's heart was beating wildly and she was a little flustered for a moment, with beads of sweat oozing from her palms.

It would be a lie to say that she wasn't nervous. Although she liked Jiang Chen, it didn't mean that she would give herself to him so easily.

Especially in this almost forced situation.

However, just when Liang Yuzhu was at a loss, Jiang Chen's voice rang out again.

"Liang Yuzhu, are you still awake?"

Jiang Chen's words made Liang Yuzhu's nerves tense instantly, her ears pricked up involuntarily, and her hands clasped together tightly.

If...if Jiang Chen really wants to do something stupid, I will fight to the death!
Liang Yuzhu secretly made up her mind.

As long as Jiang Chen dared to do anything wrong, she would definitely teach him a profound lesson.

Liang Yuzhu was so nervous that her breathing stopped. She curled up slightly, waiting for Jiang Chen to press on her so that she could counterattack him unexpectedly.

However, she just curled up like this and waited for a long time, but she didn't see Jiang Chen make any move.

Although Jiang Chen tossed and turned in bed, he never crossed the boundary of the quilt.

One minute, two minutes...

Liang Yuzhu saw that Jiang Chen did not make any other moves, so she breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down the heart that was about to jump out of her chest.

Jiang Chen, who was standing aside, turned around and looked at Liang Yuzhu.

This woman fell asleep so quickly?
Are you pretending?
Jiang Chen didn't believe that Liang Yuzhu could fall asleep so quickly!

How can anyone fall asleep so quickly?

If this girl really fell asleep, should I say that she is heartless? Or should I say that she has no defense against me?

With such a handsome guy lying next to her, isn't she afraid that she might do something out of line?

Jiang Chen shook his head and quickly drove the thought out of his mind.

No!

I can't think about it anymore!
The more I thought about it, the more I couldn't fall asleep. My heart, which had just calmed down with great difficulty, began to stir again.

Jiang Chen turned his head to look at the bedding again and spoke slowly.

"Um... Liang Yuzhu, I can't sleep, how about we chat for a while?"

However, Liang Yuzhu was like a frightened little rabbit, curled up in the quilt, motionless.

"Don't make any noise, go to sleep!" Liang Yuzhu pretended to be calm, but her voice trembled slightly, revealing the turmoil in her heart.

Sleeping? Jiang Chen muttered to himself, which young people go to bed so early these days? But he had no choice but to stare at the ceiling in a daze, tossing and turning, extremely bored.

Unable to fall asleep, Jiang Chen turned around and talked to Liang Yuzhu, "Qingyu, your performance today was really great. You kept calling me grandpa and grandma so affectionately that others would think we were a couple."

"By the way, why didn't you object when my mom told you that we were dating? If you had explained it to her clearly at the time, there wouldn't be so many troubles now."

"Tell me, what should I do in the future? My family is like this now, it seems that they have already decided on you. If I tell them that we are fake, or if I bring another girl home, they will be mad, right?"

Jiang Chen kept talking non-stop. Liang Yuzhu had no choice but to open her eyes. She knew that if she didn't talk anymore, Jiang Chen would chat all night. Why didn't she realize that Jiang Chen was so talkative before?

"How would I know this would happen? I didn't say much to Auntie. She mistakenly thought we were in love. I can't do anything about it." Liang Yuzhu said helplessly. After thinking for a while, she added, "Besides, you won't suffer any loss if the fake becomes real."

Although her voice was low, every word was clearly audible in the quiet room. Jiang Chen was stunned, then said helplessly: "Fake play becomes real? Do you know what this means? According to my grandmother, once we confirm our relationship, we have to get married, and then... then have children."

Jiang Chen got a headache when he thought about this. He was still young, so why should he rush to get married? Although childbearing is encouraged now, isn't this too hasty? What's more, he hasn't reached the legal age for marriage yet.

Liang Yuzhu was also surprised after hearing this. She didn't expect Jiang Chen's family to be so anxious. Although she didn't object to having children, she hadn't even enjoyed the sweetness of love yet, and they were going to get married directly. Isn't this too fast?
"Are you scared now?" Jiang Chen continued helplessly. (End of this chapter)
