After their confessions were rejected, they regretted it for the rest of their lives.

Chapter 101 Cats can keenly sense danger

Around 7:30, when the rain was heaviest outside, large raindrops pounded against the window, making a sound even with the best soundproof glass.

Zhou Juzi didn't know how long it had been since she had woken up in the morning feeling enveloped by a profound sense of security.

Unique...

The blankets covering me had a reassuring scent.

Because of the alcohol she had drunk yesterday, the girl's head was groggy when she woke up this morning. In this environment, it was as if she was covered with a layer of warm syrup. Zhou Juzi's first reaction was to stay in bed and continue to indulge her biological instinct for a stable environment. Then, as soon as she closed her eyes, the memories before she fell asleep instantly flooded back.

This caused the girl to sit up abruptly in bed.

Her sleepy, peach-blossom eyes gradually regained focus, and she felt the looseness of her upper body skin covered by a loose shirt.

What are Xia Weichan's clothes?

Apart from this coat, all she was wearing on her upper body was her underwear.

Her ears turned red instantly.

Last night, Zhou Juzi lost consciousness for a period of time, only remembering being carried off the bus by Xia Weichan while still drunk after dinner...

Then I woke up to an unfamiliar ceiling and a bed that smelled of someone else...

""

Zhou Juzi stared blankly out the window at the blurry environment obscured by the rain.

This is Xia Weichan's bedroom.

Realizing this, the girl's slender fingers trembled as she pinched a corner of her collar, covered it with her nose, gently closed her eyes, and inhaled the faint scent of laundry detergent on her shirt.

Leaning against the headboard, her legs were curled up under the covers...

As a young woman, after getting drunk, she was taken to a man's bedroom.

If it were Xia Weichan, Zhou Juzi wouldn't feel that it was dangerous. Instead, it felt like being enveloped by a warm current, making it hard to hide the sense of security that filled her heart.

However, I didn't feel anything particularly strange about my body.

"The cicada at the end of summer...?"

Zhou Juzi's curled eyelashes trembled slightly as she looked around, trying to find any trace of Xia Weichan, but to no avail.

Although the girl felt a little disappointed at not seeing any familiar figures, it was just a minor feeling.

After drinking alcohol, I used to have a headache and feel thirsty.

Zhou Juzi shook her head, trying to clear her mind of the hazy feeling.

She grabbed the slippers that Xia Weichan had placed under the bed for her, preparing to go out and look for that familiar figure.

Then I pushed open the bedroom door...

"?"

Eye contact...

It's not with Xia Weichan.

Instead, it was a young girl sitting on the living room sofa, facing her.

The other person sat there as if it were their right, and their gaze toward her carried an inexplicable scrutiny.

This left Zhou Juzi stunned. Why was there another girl in Xia Weichan's house, and why did the two of them seem to be secretly talking about something?

This made the girl, who had just woken up that morning and was still immersed in the warmth of Xia Weichan's bedroom after sleeping all night, instantly feel a chill.

A bittersweet feeling, tinged with anger, welled up within her, instantly stirring up the emotions that hadn't fully settled in the morning. The sensation of something precious being touched by a thief made her slightly open her peach-blossom eyes, revealing her clenched fangs, until...

"Mr. Xia, your girlfriend is awake. Aren't you going to take care of her?"

Looking at the long-haired girl who came out of the bedroom, Zhu Xuening spoke to Xia Weichan in a distant tone, deliberately drawing a line and emphasizing her point.

Zhu Xuening's sudden change in tone startled Xia Weichan, who had just realized Zhou Juzi was behind her.

I got goosebumps.

He quickly turned to look at the girl who had just come out of the bedroom, still wearing a shirt, and swallowed hard, saying, "I thought you would sleep a little longer..."

In this situation, explaining Zhu Xuening would only make things worse, like trying to hide something obvious.

""

Zhou Juzi narrowed her eyes, looking at the gray-haired girl who was blinking innocently at her. The girl's tone of voice just now made her temporarily suppress the nameless anger that had just risen.

But Zhu Xuening still received a threatening look.

"I'm thirsty..."

After a pause, Zhou Juzi pursed her lips, adjusted her shirt collar, and put on Xia Weichan's slippers. She then deliberately walked around behind Zhu Xuening and sat down next to Xia Weichan, reaching out to pick up his water glass and drinking from it.

The girl imitated the hostess, trying to naturally solidify her status as the "girlfriend" in her eyes.

Time seemed to stand still.

""

Xia Weichan didn't speak, looking at Zhou Juzi who was almost pressed against her. It seemed that the girl's behavior was... gentler than she had expected?

In fact, because she had her back turned at first, Xia Weichan did not see Zhou Juzi's sudden change in expression after she came out of the bedroom and saw that there were other girls in his house.

This made Zhu Xuening, who had originally intended to test the waters with her eyes, feel that if she didn't show weakness, something very bad would happen.

That's why the girl said those things to Xia Weichan at the first moment; she was actually indirectly implying that she wasn't a philanderer...

Zhou Juzi had been staring at Zhu Xuening. After finishing her water, she turned her gaze to Xia Weichan's face and asked, "Who is she?"

The girl's tone was calm, seemingly returning to how they had talked before. Looking into those calm, watery peach blossom eyes, Xia Weichan instinctively wanted Zhou Juzi to mind his own business. He said as usual, "You shouldn't..."

"My name is Zhu Xuening!"

Before Xia Weichan could utter the word "other," Zhu Xuening quickly raised her fair hand and explained, "A few days ago, Mr. Xia bought the development rights for Rongxue Mountain. I was sent by the original development rights group to handle the liaison and discuss the specific development matters with him."

"

'

Zhou Juzi didn't glance at Zhu Xuening; her gaze returned to Xia Weichan's face, as if to confirm this.

That's right.

Xia Weichan did not deny it. He was only concerned because Zhou Juzi only showed some defensiveness and did not act as neurotically as she had said yesterday, to the point of having a possessive outburst and directly fighting with Zhu Xuening. Therefore, he felt that the current situation was okay and that he could control it.

Indeed, explaining things to Zhu Xuening beforehand was a very clever move.

Looking at Zhou Juzi leaning against him, the unusually quiet girl didn't make any move, only gripping his wrist tightly, with a bit too much force.

Xia Weichan felt a weight lifted from her heart instantly.

It's normal to be a little wary of other girls just because he likes them a lot.

"I thought you wouldn't let other girls into your house..."

'

"This is my home..." Xia Weichan said helplessly.

"sorry."

Hearing Zhou Juzi's complaints, Zhu Xuening lowered her head, clasped her hands together, and stuck out her tongue to reply on Xia Weichan's behalf: "I'm sorry for the sudden visit—it disturbed you."

The atmosphere was harmonious...

"There's no such thing as a battleground," Xia Weichan sighed with relief.

It seems he'll be able to handle the "two girlfriends" thing that I was so worried about...
