Chapter 309
Gu Ran took the opportunity to put his arm around the young girl's slender waist, which was as delicate as if it could be held in one hand. His long fingers were not at all well - behaved and quietly slipped under the hem of her home clothes.
His warm palm touched her smooth back and kept moving forward.
The pads of his fingers carried a bit of mischievous provocation and gently pressed.
Ye Zhenzhen felt as if a tiny electric current had shot through her body. The tingling sensation ran up her spine straight to the top of her head, and her breathing rhythm was completely disrupted.
Wherever the young man's hands had passed, an unbearable heat rose.
A blush quickly spread across her cheeks. She quickly reached out her hands and pressed down on his mischievous big hand.
"Gu Ran... Behave yourself. Don't grope around!"
Gu Ran gently exerted force on his wrist. With this clever strength, he directly turned her whole body around, forcing her to look directly at him.
The distance between the two was infinitely shortened.
The unique fragrance of the young girl filled the air on the small balcony, intertwining wantonly. Their warm breaths were all sprayed on each other's cheeks.
Looking at the handsome face so close at hand, Ye Zhenzhen's heart began to lose control. The sound of her pounding heart was infinitely amplified in her ears.
She looked into the young man's eyes that reflected her own figure. His thin lips were slightly pursed at the moment, exuding a seductive charm.
Ye Zhenzhen was breathing rapidly. Some inappropriate and intimate images flashed uncontrollably through her mind.
The shy feeling spread all over her body, and her fingers nervously clutched the corner of her clothes tightly.
As her long eyelashes fluttered slightly, she slowly closed her eyes, tilted her head slightly, and made a cute appearance of closing her eyes and waiting for a kiss.
The surroundings were so quiet that only their breathing sounds could be heard.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
The expected gentle touch never came.
Ye Zhenzhen opened her eyes full of doubts.
Where was the handsome guy with broad shoulders and a narrow waist?
In the empty room, only the air - conditioner blew through her messy bangs.
Immediately afterwards, there was a crisp "click" sound of the door closing in the room.
Ye Zhenzhen immediately realized what had happened.
She had been tricked!
The feeling of shame and anger rushed to her head. She was so angry that she stomped her feet on the spot and growled through gritted teeth.
"Gu Ran, you bastard!"
On the other side, Gu Ran covered his mouth all the way, holding back his laughter, and quickly slipped back into his own room.
He leaned against the door panel and let out a long breath.
Just thinking about the cute look of the young girl closing her eyes and waiting for him to kiss her made his heart melt.
Gu Ran shook his head vigorously and patted his cheeks to force himself to wake up.
The important thing was at hand. There was still a tough battle to fight tonight.
The young man straightened up. His eyes fell on the sundries that filled most of the room, and the smile on his face froze a bit.
Bunches of pink - and - white balloons were piled up in the corner, and there was a huge white angel's wing.
It took up most of the sofa, and the coffee table was filled with unopened heart - shaped candles.
The most outrageous thing was the eye - catching goose - yellow princess - style four - piece bedding set on the bed, which made his head ache.
There was also the photo album that he had stayed up for several nights to make by himself, filled with every bit of their time from high school to now.
Looking at all these cumbersome materials in the room, Boss Gu helplessly rubbed the space between his eyebrows.
This was more hair - pulling than coding continuously for three days and nights.
But thinking that this was the once - in - a - lifetime sense of ceremony for them, he still rolled up his sleeves and decided to do it himself.
He carefully stepped around the sundries on the ground and walked to the hidden door in the living room that was cleverly blocked by a huge landscape mural.
To prevent Ye Zhenzhen, the curious little girl, from accidentally running over and ruining the surprise, he specially checked the door lock.
After confirming that it was absolutely impossible to open it from the other side, he then returned with peace of mind and began to laboriously inflate the balloons.
It had to be said...
It was quite stress - relieving.
The young man was seriously inflating the balloons. Holding an inflated heart - shaped balloon that hadn't been tied, he felt a strange sense of accomplishment.
He shook the balloon in his hand and started thinking about how to arrange them to make it harmonious and beautiful.
In the other room, Ye Zhenzhen was as angry as a puffer fish.
She took out the clothes from her suitcase one by one and hung them in the wardrobe, while still spouting a lot of complaints with a high "Gu" content.
After packing up her luggage, she wandered around the spacious suite boredly, trying to distract herself by admiring the decoration.
When she walked to the TV, she noticed a slight gap behind the art painting.
She reached out and gently moved the painting aside, only to find that there was actually a door behind it. The metal handle was shining with a cold light under the light.
She reached out and grabbed the handle, twisting it several times. She found that the door was locked from the other side, and no matter how hard she turned the handle, it didn't move at all.
The feeling of being unable to push the door instantly made her lose interest in exploring.
"Probably it's the janitor's storage room," she said disappointedly as she retracted her hand. Then she turned around and threw herself into the wide leather sofa.
The soft sofa wrapped around her petite body.
Sleepiness, accompanied by the fatigue of the journey, surged over her like a tide.
Ye Zhenzhen slumped on the sofa, but her mind couldn't help replaying Gu Ran's recent mysterious actions.
What on earth was this guy up to behind her back?
Was it really a proposal?
This scoundrel was keeping it so tight - lipped that she couldn't find out a thing!
Could it be...
The more she thought about it, the more something seemed off. An extremely absurd thought suddenly popped into her head:
Could it be that this guy had another girl on the side?
Was he taking advantage of this vacation to secretly send "good morning" messages to someone else and even be intimate with them?
As soon as this thought came up, a sour feeling welled up in Ye Zhenzhen's heart.
"Absolutely not... Absolutely not," she shook her head vigorously, trying to drive those messy images out of her mind.
With Gu Ran's annoying look, how could any other girl like him and make him fall in love with someone else?
Impossible!
Definitely impossible!
Apart from herself, no one in the world could stand him...
She must have been so angry that she was having wild imaginations.
In this kind of self - torture that went back and forth, Ye Zhenzhen's eyelids became heavier and heavier.
Her breathing gradually became steady and long, and she just curled up on the sofa and fell asleep in a daze.
In a half - asleep and half - awake state, she seemed to hear a faint sound of metal gears turning.
Immediately afterwards, there was a very soft sound of footsteps approaching.
She struggled to open her eyes a little.
Through the hazy vision, she actually saw Gu Ran walking out from behind that originally locked hidden door and walking towards her step by step.
The young man tiptoed to the sofa and squatted down. He gently tucked the blanket that had slipped to her waist back up.
Ye Zhenzhen thought it was just an illusion caused by her excessive grievance.
Even in her dream, it was this bullying scoundrel!
She wrinkled her nose discontentedly, turned over, and continued to sleep soundly.
Before she knew it, it was nine o'clock at night.
A rapid ringing of the phone broke the silence in the room.
Ye Zhenzhen was extremely annoyed by this non - stop ringing. She groped around on the sofa with her eyes closed for a long time before grabbing the vibrating phone.
"Hello..."
On the other end of the phone came the extremely piercing urging voice of Ms. Ye Shulian:
"You silly girl, why are you still sleeping! What time is it? If you miss the reserved private hot spring, I'll see where you'll cry!"
Private hot spring??
The young girl's mind was a bit muddled. She stared blankly at the ceiling, feeling a bit dazed for a moment in this unfamiliar environment.
This is...
Where am I?

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on...
