Chapter 137: Chapter 137 Too Outrageous
Translator: 549690339
Luo Ziling was woken by a knock on the door.
Startled by the knocking outside, Luo Ziling jumped out of the bathtub.
It was only after jumping out that he realized he was stark naked and quickly jumped back in.
As a result, he splashed water everywhere.
“Mr. Luo, are you done yet?” Wang Qing’s anxious voice came from outside.
“Sorry, I fell asleep,” Luo Ziling shouted, and seeing there were several towels nearby, he quickly grabbed one to wrap around his lower body and another to cover his upper body.
After wrapping himself in towels, Luo Ziling went to open the door, only to see Wang Qing standing in the room with an odd look on her face. Luo Ziling felt embarrassed and explained again, “I fell asleep halfway through my shower.”
Seeing Luo Ziling wrapped tightly from head to toe in towels, Wang Qing couldn’t help but find it ridiculous and wanted to laugh, but it felt inappropriate to do so.
“Miss sent me to ask when you would be ready,” Wang Qing said, suppressing her laughter and asking in a low voice without looking at Luo Ziling.
“I’ll be ready soon,” Luo Ziling answered with a blush, embarrassed, “Sorry to keep you waiting. Just now… I was really tired and sleepy, leaned on the tub and fell asleep.”
“It’s no problem,” Wang Qing said in an unemotional voice, “Miss was worried you might have had an accident, so she sent me to check on you.”
Then, pointing to the clothes on the bed in the outer room, she said, “Miss had me prepare these clothes for you, both underwear and outerwear. Make do with them.”
“Alright then!” Luo Ziling thought for a moment and didn’t refuse. He picked up the pile of clothes and prepared to go back into the bathroom.
“I’ll wash the clothes you took off,” Wang Qing added as Luo Ziling entered the bathroom.
“There’s no need for that,” Luo Ziling said with a blush, rushing into the bathroom.
Though Ouyang Feifei was as cold as her assistant, she was, after all, a woman. Facing such a woman while bathing made Luo Ziling feel embarrassed.
Wang Qing originally wanted to say she would throw them in the washing machine, and they could be dried quickly so that he could take them back with him later, but she said nothing further after seeing Luo Ziling’s flustered retreat to the bathroom.
Luo Ziling rushed back into the bathroom, quickly finished his bath, and then changed into the clothes Wang Qing had brought in.
Seeing that he had underwear prepared for him, Luo Ziling felt even more embarrassed.
What surprised him even more was that both the underwear and the outer garments fitted perfectly, as if they had been tailor-made for him.
The quality of the clothing seemed quite good.
But Luo Ziling knew very little about clothing brands; in the past, his clothes were often purchased by his grandfather, and he rarely shopped for clothes himself.
His grandfather traveled often, and Luo Ziling didn’t have many chances to follow, so he wasn’t very good at shopping for clothes, and naturally, he wasn’t familiar with many brands.
Luo Ziling didn’t know whether the clothes were prepared for him by Ouyang Feifei or were Wang Qing’s doing. Regardless of who had prepared the clothes, he was moved and wanted to ask about the price so he could pay them for the clothes.
But after getting dressed and packing his dirty clothes into a bag, when he walked out of the room, Luo Ziling realized all his thoughts were unnecessary.
“Since we’ll often need you to come here for treatment, I’ve prepared several sets of clothes for you to change into. You can give your used clothes to Wang Qing, and she will have them washed and returned to you,” Ouyang Feifei greeted him as he walked out, looking at him with clear eyes, “They are just ordinary clothes, I hope they fit you well.”
“Thank you for that. As for the clothes I changed out of, I’ll take them back to wash myself,” Luo Ziling said shyly, expressing his gratitude.
Fortunately, he didn’t know the brand of the clothes he was wearing. If he had known the outfit on his body was worth over a hundred thousand, he would have been astonished by how unreliable Ouyang Feifei’s comment about them being “just ordinary clothes” really was.
Also, if he knew that the outfit was personally selected by Ouyang Feifei for him, he would be even more surprised.
Seeing Luo Ziling say this, Ouyang Feifei didn’t say much and changed the subject, “It’s already eight o’clock, let’s find a place to have dinner!”
Hearing Ouyang Feifei say that it was already eight o’clock in the evening, Luo Ziling was very surprised.
He remembered that when he was preparing to take a bath, it was only six-thirty, and he could not believe that he had fallen asleep in the bathtub for over an hour.
Luckily, he hadn’t drowned, and fortunately, no one who wanted to harm him barged in to kill him; otherwise, his life would have been over.
His grandfather’s teachings had been thrown to the back of his mind once again, and Luo Ziling felt very guilty.
“I guessed you fell asleep while taking a bath,” Ouyang Feifei said softly, as if she knew what Luo Ziling was thinking: “Just now, seeing you so tired, I thought you should rest a bit before being disturbed. But I was also worried about you having an accident, so I sent Wang Qing to check on you. Okay, let’s go find a place to eat, I’m hungry too.”
Usually, Ouyang Feifei didn’t feel hungry, but today, after being treated by Luo Ziling, she felt very hungry. While Luo Ziling was bathing, she had some fruit, but she still wanted to eat more.
It made sense to invite Luo Ziling to a meal since he had come over to treat her.
Luo Ziling hesitated, he really did not want to have dinner with Ouyang Feifei.
When he accepted Ouyang Lingyun’s invitation to have dinner at Xiangshan Garden, he had seen Ouyang Feifei’s elegance and reserve while eating, without uttering a single word. Dining with a woman like her made Luo Ziling feel like he would suffocate internally.
He immediately declined politely: “I should head back to the university first, or I won’t be able to get into the apartment building later. I’m not hungry either. Why don’t you go eat by yourselves?”
Ouyang Feifei was a bit angry that Luo Ziling had unexpectedly refused her dinner invitation but ultimately she just looked at Luo Ziling a few times without any special reaction.
“Suit yourself, I’ll have someone send you back!” she said, turning to call over Wang Qing, who was waiting to the side, “Arrange a car to take Luo Ziling back to the university.”
“Yes, Miss,” Wang Qing answered, though he was puzzled. In the end, he did not ask any questions and left with a slightly embarrassed Luo Ziling.
Watching Luo Ziling leave, Ouyang Feifei, who had already changed into her outdoor clothes, let out a small sigh before walking back to her room.
Soon after, the sound of a car engine starting could be heard outside.
After a short while, Wang Qing also returned upstairs.
“Miss, he’s gone!”
“You go rest too,” Ouyang Feifei said while reading a book on the sofa in her room, acting as if nothing had happened.
Wang Qing hesitated for a moment before asking quietly, “Miss, and… your dinner?”
“Just prepare some fruit for me,” said Ouyang Feifei without lifting her head. “Come pick me up on time tomorrow!”
“Yes, Miss!” Wang Qing agreed timidly, and quietly withdrew.
She knew that Ouyang Feifei was upset with Luo Ziling because he had just turned down her dinner invitation.
In her memory, it was the first time Ouyang Feifei had actively invited a man to have dinner together.
But, this man had actually refused!
It’s! Just! Unbelievable!
