Chapter 892: Huo Yingcheng, Yu Bao’er (64)

She soaked herself in the bathtub to sober up.

Work wasn’t as wonderful as she had imagined at the start. It was becoming more and more tormenting.

But Yu Bao’er felt that she could still endure it.

If she went to work other jobs, the stress would probably be even greater.

It was just a small issue. She would just feel glum about it for a while, and after a night of sleep, all would be fine.

Ding-Dong…

The doorbell suddenly rang.

Yu Bao’er instantly became alert.

She lived by herself and didn’t have many friends, only occasionally going to Gu Qingjiu’s place. She didn’t order takeaway either. Who would be around to look for her?

Was Huo Yingcheng back?

But that couldn’t be it. He didn’t call to inform her.

Moreover, she was taking a bath.

Yu Bao’er felt it troublesome, and she got up from the water and wiped herself clean while shouting outside. “Wait a minute!”

She put on undergarments, then pajamas properly, before going to open the door.

The minute the door opened, she saw a weather-beaten man standing there. “What are you doing? Why did you take so long?”

Yu Bao’er’s eyes lit up instantly at the sight of him. She jumped onto him. “Can’t I take a shower? Why didn’t you call me?”

The man outside was Huo Yingcheng.

Huo Yingcheng hugged Yu Bao’er and entered the house. With a smile, he said, “I wanted to give you a surprise. Did you miss me?”

Yu Bao’er grinned and she tugged at the corners of Huo Yingcheng’s lips. “Why are you so thick-skinned?”

Huo Yingcheng carried Yu Bao’er over to the sofa. He sat down and let her sit on his lap. Gazing at his surroundings, he suggested with a look of disdain. “Why don’t I get you a bigger apartment? It’s hard on you to be staying here.”

“Nah, I think it’s fine.”

Yu Bao’er liked such apartments. A small house that was simple and warm.

It was just that it indeed got lonely staying by herself. She even planned on adopting a kitten for the company.

“Up to you then. But even if you don’t move to a different apartment, you’ve got to change the bed. I can’t even stretch out my legs when I sleep.”

“No way! Shameless fellow. Who wants to sleep with you? Go and sleep on the sofa!”

Yu Bao’er giggled. She propped herself up on her legs and kissed Huo Yingcheng.

No reason to refuse when a woman took the initiative to ask for a kiss.

Huo Yingcheng hugged Yu Bao’er and kissed her thoroughly until she couldn’t breathe, only letting go of her when he felt an impulse. In a raspy voice, he said, “I went back and told my mom about us. She asked me to take you back to Penalan when you have time.”

“Why did you tell her?”

Yu Bao’er was stunned. She wasn’t prepared to meet his parents yet.

“I said I’ll bring you back when you have time. Not now.”

Huo Yingcheng kissed her hair. “Why are you so panicked?”

Yu Bao’er: “…”

How could she not feel panicked?

Yu Bao’er had never considered meeting the boyfriend’s parents.

In the past when she dated other boys, it was just for fun. There was no such thing as meeting the parents.

After all, it was different for her and Huo Yingcheng. Although she felt weird about it, she didn’t feel strongly opposed to it. After hearing Huo Yingcheng say that, she merely murmured, “Let’s go when I’m mentally prepared. Moreover, it’s vexing at work these days. I even nearly got into a quarrel with someone today.”
