Jiang Lai laughed again when she heard Yang Chu's words.

"You're really honest!"

"There's no need to hide it. If I like you, I'll tell you directly that I want to pursue you. If I don't have feelings for you, I won't say anything ambiguous."

Jiang Lai looked at Yang Chu with a mocking expression, circled around him once, and said, "So you didn't like me? That's why you didn't finish what you were saying?"

Yang Chu nodded and then shook his head, saying, "That's both right and wrong."

"Why are you being so mysterious?"

"I'm not trying to keep you in suspense, but I'm just stating some facts."

"Okay, then tell me the truth."

Yang Chu stroked his chin and looked at Jiang Lai, saying, "Judging from your clothes, you must be rich and noble. Judging from your tone of voice, I am even more certain of this. I have a clear understanding of myself. A beauty like you is only to be admired from afar and not to be approached. To put it bluntly, I have feelings for you, but I will not overestimate myself."

Jiang Lai scoffed and said dismissively, "Tch! Coward!"

Yang Chu smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Alright, whether I have guts or not isn't up to you to decide. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving."

Yang Chu had only taken two steps when Jiang Lai called out to him.

"stop!"

"Is there something else?"

"Where are you going?"

"Of course I'm going back to sleep! It's almost midnight, what else am I supposed to do but sleep!"

Jiang Lai walked up to Yang Chu with a mischievous smile, grabbed his arm, and said, "There are so many things we can do! Come on, I'll show you the world."

Yang Chu was caught off guard when Jiang Lai grabbed his arm, and his whole body tensed up instantly.

In both his past lives, Yang Chu was still a young virgin! At most, he had only ever shaken hands with women; he had never experienced anything more intimate.

Suddenly, Jiang Lai grabbed his arm, touching something soft and feeling the pressure on his arm, which made Yang Chu extremely nervous.

Jiang Lai also sensed Yang Chu's abnormality, especially the fact that Yang Chu walked stiffly and seemed to move his arms and legs in unison.

Jiang Lai then looked at Yang Chu and saw Yang Chu blushing and his heart pounding.

Jiang Lai also realized what was going on and found Yang Chu even more amusing.

He released Yang Chu's arm and looked at him, saying, "You haven't had any contact with women before, have you?"

Yang Chuhong said with a look on her face, "Is it shameful to have never been in contact with women?"

Jiang Lai licked her lips and looked at Yang Chu, saying, "Wow! I didn't realize! You're not young anymore, but you can really hold your own!"

Yang Chu curled his lip and said, "Tch! It's none of your business! I'm leaving, I don't want to be treated like a monkey by you anymore."

After saying that, Yang Chu headed straight for the parking lot, still pondering what had happened.

According to the plot of the TV series, Jiang Lai should already know about Chen Fang's death, and she should have been attempting suicide recently, but was saved by Lu Yuan.

But judging from their condition just now, Jiang Lai hadn't jumped off the building, and Lu Yuan hadn't saved her either. What exactly happened?

Yang Chu instinctively wanted to ask the system, but just as he was about to ask, he suddenly thought of a question.

In the TV series, Lu Yuan and his group lost their luggage and then found it again, but it was only a fleeting moment. In reality, it certainly wouldn't be something that could be found in a day or two.

This time, Lu Yuan's luggage was found on the same day, which means that the time spent looking for his luggage was saved and used to find Peng Jiahe's grandmother.

Therefore, Jiang Lai has not jumped off the building yet, nor has she met Lu Yuan, nor has she vandalized the villa.

Having figured this out, Yang Chu suddenly understood. Although he was quite familiar with some of the plot points in the TV series, he couldn't follow the timeline of the series at all.

Yang Chu was right; Jiang Lai had just returned from Shenzhen today.

Upon learning of Chen Fang's death, she went to a bar to drown her sorrows and ran into Yang Chu as soon as she came out.

Although I'm in a bad mood, it's not to the point of wanting to die.

Yang Chu had just gotten into the car when he found it.

Jiang Lai also quickened her pace and got into the passenger seat.

Yang Chu looked at Jiang Lai speechlessly and said, "What are you doing up here!"

Jiang Lai retorted unreasonably, "It's none of your business!"

"No, this is my car!"

"I know!"

"Then do you think I can or cannot intervene?"

"Hey! Why are you worrying so much? Hurry up and drive."

Yang Chu said somewhat dejectedly, "No, I've already made myself clear. I'm going back to rest. Are you coming back to the hotel with me?"

"Are you staying at a hotel?"

"Yeah, what's the problem?"

"You've been back for over two months now, haven't you found a suitable place to live yet?"

Yang Chu rolled his eyes and said, "That's my business, it's none of your concern. Are you getting off the bus or not?"

Jiang Lai didn't answer Yang Chu. Instead, she fastened her seatbelt, gripped the seatbelt button, and stared at Yang Chu.

It's as if they're saying, 'I'm not going down, what can you do to me?'

Yang Chu had no choice but to start the car and return to the hotel, as Jiang Lai was helpless.

Halfway there, Jiang Lai looked at Yang Chu again and asked, "Speaking of which, you've really never been in contact with a woman before?"

Yang Chu didn't even glance at Jiang Lai, keeping his eyes glued to the car, but he still answered Jiang Lai's question.

"Living in a bustling city, it's impossible not to have contact with women, it's just that I haven't done any intimate things."

Jiang Lai nodded knowingly, then continued, "Haven't you ever thought about finding a girlfriend?"

"I have thought about finding a girlfriend, but my family is quite strict. My parents don't want me to get involved in matters of love and sex, so I haven't taken any action."

The two chatted back and forth, and soon arrived at the hotel.

After parking the car, Yang Chu looked at Jiang Lai and said, "I've arrived! I've answered your questions, can you go back now?"

Jiang Lai unbuckled her seatbelt, got out of the car, and said, "Who said I was going back? I'm staying here tonight, is that not allowed?"

Yang Chu had no choice but to close the ceiling and say, "Do whatever you want! I'm really sleepy."

After saying that, Yang Chu walked to the hotel front desk.

Do you have any late-night snacks now?

The receptionist said apologetically, "I'm sorry, sir, the chef has already finished get off work. Would you like a bowl of instant noodles to tide you over?"

Yang Chu smiled and nodded, then went to take the elevator without saying a word.

Jiang Lai followed closely behind Yang Chu. When she heard that Yang Chu wanted to eat, she looked at her phone and felt a little disappointed. It was already 1 a.m., and the chefs at their restaurant must have already gone home. So Jiang Lai had no choice but to follow Yang Chu into the elevator.

Seeing Jiang Lai follow him into the elevator, Yang Chu said with a look of utter despair, "Looks like I'll be sleeping on the floor tonight! Why am I so unlucky!"

Jiang Lai joked, "You can sleep in the bed too!"
