Chapter 185 - Respect
“At the time I was thinking, ‘how can a man be so devilishly gorgeous? Who in the world will be unfortunate enough to marry him?'” Huo Mian laughed idiotically after saying this.
She didn’t notice how bad Qin Chu’s expression was… Was it that unfortunate to be his wife?
She thought he looked devilish? The little wicked girl’s courage obviously grew with age.
If Huo Mian wasn’t drunk, he would seriously consider throwing her out from the 16th floor.
“Ugh…” Unable to control the churning in her stomach, she threw up again. Once again, Qin Chu failed to escape from the disaster zone.
However, compared to the first time, he was much calmer the second time around and didn’t become furious at all.
He undressed Huo Mian and threw her clothes into the other bathroom.
First, he helped her shower, and then he took a shower himself. Finally, he dumped all their clothes into the washing machine.
It was already 2 AM when he finished cleaning up.
Exhausted, Qin Chu fell onto the bed. He glanced at Huo Mian – she was sleeping like a baby.
He sighed; perhaps he owed her from their last lifetime. No matter how furious he became, all his anger seemed to disappear into thin air as soon as he saw her.
– The next morning –
When Huo Mian woke up, Qin Chu had already prepared a western breakfast with sandwiches, eggs, and warm milk.
“Um… last night…?” Huo Mian opened her mouth awkwardly.
“I picked you up last night. You threw up twice, once in my car and once in the bathroom. I took off your clothes and helped you shower. Oh, and I was the one who washed and dried all the dirty clothes,” Qin Chu said everything in one breath.
Huo Mian’s face turned crimson by the time he finished…
He helped her shower? Did that mean he saw everything?
“Looks like you … had a lot to do last night.” Huo Mian sat down by the table. She picked up the glass of warm milk and began drinking it slowly.
“Thanks for acknowledging that. Next time, you should drink less.”
“I didn’t actually drink that much, haha.” Huo Mian chuckled.
If Qin Chu found out that she drank three bottles of red wine, two bottles of beer and a bottle of liquor, he would probably kill her.
“I don’t need to go to work, it’s Sunday so I have the day off. Starting tomorrow, I will be working at the South Side Recuperation Center,” Huo Mian slowly said.
Qin Chu wasn’t interested in her change of job. He nodded, “South Side is a little far.”
“If I take the bus, it’s only 45 minutes and 2 transfers away,” Huo Mian thought otherwise.
“So that means you’ll be working night shifts again?” Qin Chu suddenly remembered this; his face turned grim.
“Um…” Guilty, Huo Mian didn’t dare to say more.
“I don’t have a problem with you working night shifts. It’s your job, your freedom. I respect you, but you have to respect me as well.”
“How would you like me to respect you?” Huo Mian knew that Qin Chu had more to say.
“Take the Volkswagen CC then, it’ll save you time from commuting to work. If you take the South-Ring Overpass, you’ll be there in less than 10 minutes.”
“But…” Huo Mian didn’t really want to be known as the high-profile nurse who drove to work.
“It’s settled,” Qin Chu dominatingly announced before Huo Mian could finish her sentence.
“Let’s go out after breakfast.”
“To where?” Huo Mian asked in a daze.
“Gao Ran said he wanted to take us out to lunch.”
“What? But I’ve already made plans to have lunch with Lingling.” Huo Mian struggled.
“Not a problem, the four of us can eat together,” Qin Chu suggested.
“Eat…together? Is that a good idea?” Huo Mian was a little shocked by Qin Chu’s proposition.
