Chapter 14: Chapter 14: Still Successfully Embraced
"She's ill!"
This was Gao Jun's immediate impression of Liang Yaqi.
And it seemed a serious illness at that.
When Liang Yaqi heard Gao Jun curse at her, she didn't get angry. Instead, she raised her eyebrows, and with a tipsy face, she sillyly laughed and just kept looking at him.
Gao Jun even suspected that she might be a masochist.
Seeing her still staring at him, he firmly refused, "No way, get in the car now."
Saying this, he opened the car door and forcibly made Liang Yaqi get inside.
Once in the car, Gao Jun turned on the navigation and asked for the address, "Where is the hotel?"
"Minglai Hotel," Liang Yaqi then looked out the window.
As for driving, naturally Gao Jun did it.
After entering the address and confirming the navigation, Gao Jun stepped on the gas and headed toward the hotel.
They got out of the car.
Gao Jun helped Liang Yaqi to the lobby elevator.
When the elevator opened, just by chance, two young men followed behind them.
Liang Yaqi tried to lean on Gao Jun, but he said, "Stay alert, stand firm, don't lean on me, don't think about scamming me."
Upon hearing this, the two young men behind them widened their eyes.
The woman in front of them was wearing high heels, her tall figure fully in view.
Her waist-to-hip ratio was enough to make any man daydream.
And from what had been observed while entering the elevator, her features were delicate.
Definitely a gorgeous woman!!
But this man actually told her to keep away from him?!
This left the two young men exchanging glances, indeed, behind every beautiful woman, there was always a man...
Gao Jun naturally didn't care about others' opinions. Right now, he just wanted to hurry and drop Liang Yaqi off at her room, then leave.
[13th floor!]
Gao Jun led Liang Yaqi out of the elevator.
"Give me the room card."
After locating the room, Gao Jun asked her to take out the room card.
Liang Yaqi was searching her bag, mumbling as she searched, "Where is it..."
Finally, she sillyly handed her bag to Gao Jun, "You look for it."
Gao Jun, feeling helpless, rifled through the bag.
The bag didn't contain much, just a lipstick, an ID card, a cell phone.
He shuffled through, finding the room card in an inner layer.
At the same time, Gao Jun also saw a movie ticket.
Looking at the date on the movie ticket, it seemed to be from the time Liang Yaqi went to the cinema to drink.
Thinking of this, Gao Jun sighed.
After all, he had traveled through time, and he could easily let go of his original past.
But Liang Yaqi was different.
She had been in love since college.
Now, Liang Yaqi's husband and Gao Jun's ex-wife were involved.
Gao Jun had chosen to cut the Gordian knot and decisively divorced Gu Feier.
But for Liang Yaqi, both the sunk cost of time and previous efforts were not easily dismissed.
Thinking of this, Gao Jun finally softened his heart.
He helped Liang Yaqi open the room door, then turned to her and said, "Alright, go in quickly, I'm leaving now."
After speaking, Gao Jun prepared to leave.
At this moment, Liang Yaqi thanked him, "Thank you."
She then staggered into the room.
However, she didn't close the door but stood sillily by the door, smiling and watching herself.
Gao Jun, seeing her state, worried about what might happen to this woman after he left.
"Forget it, I'll boil some hot water for you before I go. Otherwise, I'm worried you won't manage," Gao Jun went inside.
This was a five-star hotel, and the room's interior was definitely top-notch.
Gao Jun looked around for a moment, then picked up the kettle, filled it with water, plugged it in, and started boiling.
In the meantime, Liang Yaqi went to the bathroom.
When the water was ready, Gao Jun poured a cup and then looked towards the bathroom, saying, "The water is ready, make sure you drink it, sober up before you take a shower."
After finishing, he prepared to leave.
But there was no reply from Liang Yaqi in the bathroom.
"Did you hear me?"
He knocked on the bathroom door.
"Where are you?"
Anxious, when nobody responded from the inside, Gao Jun started to worry.
He subconsciously twisted the door and found it wasn't locked.
Therefore, Gao Jun said in advance, "If you don't speak, I will come in."
He pushed open the door.
All he could hear was the faucet at the sink continuously running, the water had even spread from the countertop to the floor.
And Liang Yaqi was sitting on the ground, her hands clasping her knees, head bowed.
Seeing this, Gao Jun immediately turned off the faucet and then picked her up.
Seeing Liang Yaqi thoroughly drenched, he asked, "What are you doing?"
At that moment, Liang Yaqi looked up, her cheeks bearing the traces of un-dried tears, like a flower weathered by wind and rain.
Seeing her pitiful state, Gao Jun comforted, "I hope you can pull yourself together and bravely move forward."
This time, Liang Yaqi finally spoke.
With a weak and trembling voice, she answered, "Okay…"
"Where are your clothes? I'll get them for you to change. After that, drink some hot water, wrap yourself in a blanket, and don't shower right away."
Liang Yaqi raised her slender hand and pointed towards the bed, saying, "There is a suitcase, the topmost piece is a loose top."
"Okay."
Gao Jun then turned back, went to the bed, and saw that suitcase.
As soon as he opened it, a bright red bra appeared before his eyes.
Gao Jun remained calm, but out of curiosity, he took another look.
Based on many years of experience, he estimated it to be a D.
Soon, he had fetched a top and a short skirt to the bathroom door.
"Hurry and change, they are all wet."
"Okay."
He closed the door.
After a short while, Liang Yaqi opened the door again.
Compared to her earlier appearance in a form-fitting skirt that made her look sexy, she now bore a more youthful air.
The top was loose and casual, hanging on her shoulders like an unfurled lily.
The short skirt showcased her long legs freely.
Liang Yaqi's cheeks were blushed, her eyes flickered with a bewildered glow, and her lips bore a lazy smile.
She tilted her head, smiling, "Would you hug me before leaving, please?"
Hearing her request, Gao Jun ultimately softened, stepped forward, and gently embraced her.
Liang Yaqi contentedly leaned against him.
And the moment Gao Jun embraced her, he immediately realized something.
She was braless…
To prevent any accidents, he left the room.
After Gao Jun left, Liang Yaqi walked out of the bathroom, looking at the steaming cup of hot water on the table.
After a small sip, her heart also warmed up a bit.
Gao Jun left the hotel and hurried back home.
Upon opening the door, he saw Gao Yingying nestled in Jiang Yilan's arms.
Both were intently watching the TV.
They didn't even notice Gao Jun's arrival.
Seeing their engrossment, Gao Jun called out, "Yingying, I'm back!"
His words startled the two women, who let out a scream.
This in turn gave Gao Jun a fright.
Gao Yingying complained, "Dad! You scared us to death, we were watching a horror movie!!"
Gao Jun couldn't help but laugh, saying, "You guys are still watching horror movies, and besides, it's you who are scared, look at Miss Jiang, she isn't scared..."
But when he turned to Jiang Yilan, he found her also red-faced and gasping for breath.
Jiang Yilan, embarrassed by Gao Jun's comment, also started to feel awkward.
Actually, she was quite timid, but she had agreed to watch the horror movie because Gao Yingying wanted to.
Now, Gao Jun's entrance had indeed given her a start.
"Miss Jiang, I'm sorry for the bother," Gao Jun said awkwardly.
"It's okay, after all, I also enjoy spending time with Yingying," Jiang Yilan said with a smile.
Gao Jun then suggested, "It's getting late, why don't I take you home?"
"No need, no need, I can go back by myself, especially since Yingying is alone at home…" Jiang Yilan explained.
Gao Yingying quickly interjected, "Miss Jiang, I'm often home alone, it's okay. Let my dad drive you home, it's not safe on the way."
Jiang Yilan couldn't help but laugh, and she finally agreed, "If that's the case, then I'll trouble Yingying's dad."
Before Gao Jun and Jiang Yilan left, he reminded Gao Yingying, "Dad will be back soon, if there's anything you can call me on your phone watch."
"Don't worry!"
Gao Yingying then made a cheering gesture, whispering, "Go for it, Dad!!"
Gao Jun frowned, put on an admonishing look, and then left.
After her dad and Miss Jiang had left, Gao Yingying sighed and murmured to herself, "Dad, Yingying's task is done, it's all up to you now."
