I borrowed Su Yuqian's bedroom and took a bath, washing away the dirt and smell from the past few days. I felt that this kind of situation only happened when I was a child. I soaked in the hot water in the bathroom for a while before Su Yuqian called me out. I put my clothes in the washing machine and used the dryer to dry them. These two machines were a perfect match, but having both a washing machine and a dryer took up too much space. However, it was limited to my apartment. Su Yuqian's house was obviously much more spacious.

After changing into dry clothes, I went to the living room. Su Yuqian had brewed two cups of hot tea and was sitting on the sofa, maintaining a certain distance from me. I held the tea cup in my hands and felt the warm sensation spreading throughout my body. Taking a sip of the tea was even more comfortable. "Here are some pastries..." Su Yuqian pointed to a plate of slightly browned pastries on the coffee table. Since I hadn't eaten for a few days, I naturally devoured them without caring about my appearance. I wiped the crumbs off my mouth with embarrassment. "Can you explain why you're in this state now?" Su Yuqian asked after I wiped away the pastry crumbs. "Are you really curious?" I made a joke. "I don't want to know. If you don't tell me, forget it," Su Yuqian said with a displeased and sulky face. "Just joking. What I'm about to say may be quite serious and heavy," I suddenly said with a serious expression. "Why the sudden serious face? Just say it, Stupid Jerry," Su Yuqian urged. I wanted to say if we could be a little more serious when discussing these matters, but I didn't say it out loud. I took a deep breath and explained everything in detail. "Zhiye knew about your affair and imprisoned you," Su Yuqian stated. By the way, the person you had an affair with was her. How can she act like it's none of her business? "She didn't let you eat or drink, and you ended up having accidents. Only through your sister were you able to be freed," I stared at her with a slightly disgusted look. She noticed and blushed, explaining, "I was just trying to resolve the situation. Why do you have that look of disgust?" "I just hope you can participate more," I said. "I don't want to, stupid," she replied. It was a joke, but the topic was still heavy. Every time I thought of Zhiye's irrational behavior, my body instinctively trembled. "Are you cold?" Su Yuqian asked when she saw me shivering. "I'm not cold... Why are you trembling?" "Ah... It might be because a cold wind blew into my neck just now..." "Is that so?" Su Yuqian seemed somewhat skeptical. I didn't even believe it myself. After all, how could there be a cold wind in a closed room? "What are you going to do now?" Su Yuqian asked me after a moment of silence. "Ah?" I was at a loss. "Stupid, do you plan to keep staying at my house? And I've already said that this kind of secret love affair is not good at all," Su Yuqian said, getting a bit emotional. I pondered for a few seconds, holding her hand and saying slowly, "Marry me."
