Chapter 6

Chapter 6

I was back in the scene from my dream.

Memories of those erotic images assaulted me, and I was too guilt-ridden to look Shi Jianjin in the eye.

I was terrified of insulting the deity again.

Shi Jianjin seemed to be in an exceptionally foul mood today. From the moment he walked through the door, he hadn’t said a single word to me.

Once again, I felt his palpable loathing for me.

I hurriedly grabbed the jacket I’d left behind and bolted for the exit like my life depended on it.

Just as I reached the door, he slammed his hand against it and clicked the lock.

“In such a hurry to find him?”

He was a full head taller than me. When I looked up, I could only see his sharp jawline and the straight, pressed line of his lips.

“No,” I explained. “I just want to go home.”

“Wait a while.”

His voice was cold, devoid of any emotion.

With that, he sat down at his desk, picked up a console, and started playing games.

I stood there, feeling awkward and out of place.

“Shi Jianjin, I don’t have anywhere to do my homework.”

“Go on my bed.”

Huh? My eyes widened.

He pulled a small lap desk out from a corner and set it on the bed. The desk fit perfectly over my legs. Sitting like this to do homework wasn’t actually uncomfortable.

The sheets were smooth and soft. I could even catch a faint hint of Shi Jianjin’s scent.

I swallowed hard and tried to focus on the problems.

But my mind was filled with nothing but Shi Jianjin. By the time I snapped out of it, my scratch paper was covered in his name: “Shi Jianjin.”

Terrified he would see it, I frantically crumpled the paper into a ball and tossed it into the trash can.

This wouldn’t work. I couldn’t study on his bed.

“Shi Jianjin, I’m not comfortable on your bed,” I lied, looking for an excuse.

He didn’t say anything. He simply brought a chair over from the next room and placed it right beside him.

When he returned, he locked the bedroom door once again.
