Chapter 508 - Sleeping Beauty
Chapter 508 of "Invincible Young Master in the City" begins with suspenseful moments: Ye Fan walked around the room, to the living room, then turned on the light,... Donât miss it!
Ye Fan walked around the room, to the living room, then turned on the light, poured himself a glass of water, and sat down on the sofa to leisurely sip it.
Drinking water was just an excuse, he had to wait for Tantai Wanrong and Zhao Tianya to finish their chat and come out.
Since other people were asleep, it was not possible to turn on the television at this time.
However, he had not been sitting for long when a bedroom door opened.
Ye Fan couldnât help but turn his head to see Li Zhaojun walking out of that room.
Li Zhaojun, upon seeing Ye Fan, paused slightly, then gracefully walked over and sat down next to, almost against, Ye Fan.
âCanât sleep?â Li Zhaojun asked in a conversational tone.
Ye Fan shook his head slightly, âNo.
Aunt Rong and Aunt Ya are chatting in my room.
I canât get a word in edgewise, so I came out here to sit for a bit.â
âOh,â Li Zhaojun simply responded, without saying much.
Ye Fan asked in return, âWhat about you?â
âIâm a bit restless,â Li Zhaojun said, âI havenât had this much fun in a long time, so Iâm still feeling a bit excited.â
Following that, the two of them started chatting casually.
Having the experience of talking while lying in bed before, both were quite skilled at casual conversation, so they were able to keep talking without worrying about running out of topics and experiencing awkward silences.
At first, both sat upright while chatting, but after a while, they reclined deeply into the couch, backs comfortably resting against the back of the sofa.
Regardless of why Tantai Wanrong and Zhao Tianya were taking so long to come out, Ye Fan and Li Zhaojun had been chatting for a good half hour.
Moreover, Li Zhaojunâs voice got softer and softer until, finally, her head tilted and she leaned on his shoulder, falling asleep directly.
Ye Fan saw Li Zhaojun actually fall asleep on his shoulder and couldnât help but consider waking her up to go back to her room to sleep.
But just as he was about to speak, he saw a smile appear on the face of the sleeping beauty, a smile full of calmness and happiness, something her face normally could never have.
âIs she having a sweet dream?â Ye Fan looked at the sleeping beautyâs face, finding it hard to disturb Li Zhaojunâs pleasant dream.
âOh well, let her lean on me and sleep for a while.â
Ye Fan decided to wait before waking Li Zhaojun and then reached for a cushion, gently placing it on her stomach.
Although the central air conditioning in the living room was on, making the temperature comfortable, Li Zhaojun was, after all, asleep, and as a woman, there was still a chance she could catch a cold if not careful.
Another half hour passed, and Tantai Wanrong and Zhao Tianya still hadnât come out.
Ye Fan guessed that they had probably talked themselves to sleep in bed.
Turning his head to look at Li Zhaojun again, he saw she was deeply asleep, her usually cold and aloof face now serene and incredibly beautiful, just like a sleeping Snow White.
âIf only she were like this all the time,â Ye Fan suddenly couldnât help thinking, then shook his head self-deprecatingly, âDonât be silly.
A personâs nature is hard to change.â
After three minutes of idle thoughts, Ye Fan carefully shifted and cradled the sleeping Li Zhaojun in his arms.
Although he could let Li Zhaojun continue sleeping against his shoulder until dawn, it might not be bearable for her.
Not to mention the risk of catching cold, just the awkward sleeping position alone could leave her with a sore back and aching muscles the next day.
Li Zhaojunâs body was soft and lightweight; even when cradled in his arms, he found it comfortable.
He carried Li Zhaojun to her room, gently placed her on the bed, and then covered her with a blanket.
After completing these tasks, Ye Fan intended to leave, but his gaze unintentionally swept over Li Zhaojun, asleep and beautiful on the bed, and unexplainably, a kind of âMagic Powerâ kept him from looking away, fixating him in place as he watched her.
Lost in thought for a good fifteen minutes, Ye Fan snapped back to reality, a bitter smile surfacing on his face as he shook his head and walked out of Li Zhaojunâs room.
Having left Li Zhaojunâs room, Ye Fan went straight back to his own, only to find that Tantai Wanrong and Zhao Tianya had already fallen asleep on the bed.
As he approached the bed, he saw Tantai Wanrong lying flat on her back in an elegant posture, while Zhao Tianya was curled up around Tantai Wanrong like an octopus.
Both Tantai Wanrong and Zhao Tianya seemed to be sleeping deeply and soundly, probably exhausted from the dayâs fun.
With the bed taken by Tantai Wanrong and Zhao Tianya, Ye Fan obviously couldnât climb in to join them.
He walked out of his room and glanced at Zhao Tianyaâs door, shaking his head.
Even though Zhao Tianya and Tantai Wanrong were sleeping in his room, he couldnât just go sleep in Zhao Tianyaâs bed, or else it would lead to a big misunderstanding the next morning.
No, that would make Li Zhaojun and Tantai Wanrong suspect his real relationship with Zhao Tianya.
Therefore, Ye Fan settled for sleeping on the couch in the living room.
The next day, Li Zhaojun woke from her slumber, stretching lazily.
She had slept very comfortably.
Opening her beautiful eyes, she found herself lying on a soft, large bed.
âLast night IâŚâ she subconsciously tried to recall how she fell asleep, quickly remembering that she was talking with Ye Fan on the sofa and then dozed off on him because she was too tired.
âSo, Ye Fan must have carried me back to the bed,â she mused silently, an exquisitely beautiful smile of contentment spreading across her face.
Li Zhaojun got out of bed, smoothed her smooth long hair slightly in the mirror, then stepped out of the room, ready to wash up.
Leaving her room, she found everyone was already up, chatting on the couch in the living room.
Her gaze unintentionally swept over Ye Fan, but he didnât notice her, leaving her slightly disappointed.
âSorry, I slept in,â she said to Tantai Wanrong, Zhao Tianya, and the others.
Zhao Tianya laughed, âNo worries.
We also just got up.â
After Li Zhaojun finished washing up and dressed neatly, it was already nine in the morning.
Though they were starting the day late, Li Zhaojun, Tantai Wanrong, and the others didnât plan to just have a quick breakfast and head out to see the sights.
Instead, they had Ye Fan drive them to a well-known breakfast restaurant in Hangzhou to enjoy the local morning cuisine.
While they were having breakfast, Ye Fanâs phone suddenly received a call from an unknown number in Hua Hai city.
Answering it, it turned out to be Lan Qingrong, Zeng Jingweiâs roommate.
Li Zhaojun, Tantai Wanrong, and the others were focused on eating, so Ye Fan stepped aside to talk.
âLan Beauty, whatâs up?â Ye Fan asked.
The last time he had taken Zeng Jingwei and her classmates out for a meal, he hadnât taken the initiative to ask for Lan Qingrong and the othersâ contact informationâout of modesty, the girls hadnât asked either.
Lan Qingrong giggled, âHehe, big brother Ye Fan, today is the weekend and the weather is great.
How about going out to have some fun?â
âHeh, sorry, but Iâm not in Hua Hai city right now,â Ye Fan said with a smile.
âOh, thatâs a shame,â Lan Qingrongâs laughter dipped slightly as she asked, âWhere are you then?â
âHangzhou,â Ye Fan replied.
âWow, Iâm so jealous.
You get to spend the weekend in Hangzhou.â
Lan Qingrong didnât end the call immediately but took the chance to chat with Ye Fan for another three or four minutes before ending the call at an appropriate time.
Ye Fan returned to the breakfast table and continued eating.
Tantai Wanrong said to him, âWe just decided that weâre not going back today and will stay to play another day tomorrow.â
