Chapter 468: Single-life curse.
“Why are you acting like this? It’s not like you never stayed for a night at my place.” Yuhan said while looking at the bad weather outside.
It was raining hard and it seemed impossible to drive back home while it was raining. It does not seem like the rain is going to stop anytime soon.
How can he let her go back in this weather? It’s so dangerous.
Moreover, it’s not like she has never stayed at his place. What is there to be conscious of around him anyway.
While Yuhan was looking outside the window and worrying about the bad weather and her safety, Jia Fei’s eyes were on him, observing his reaction.
She was caught off guard by his words and was slightly embarrassed. How can he say something like that so naturally? Doesn’t he feel embarrassed about it at all? She wondered.
However, when she looked at him to notice his reaction, he genuinely seemed to be worrying about the weather and her safety while going back during the rain.
.....
‘Is she the only one feeling embarrassed about it?’ She wondered.

“How...How can I stay at your place? It’s not the same thing as before.” Jia Fei said while covering her flushed ears embarrassedly with her long hair. ,
How can it be the same as before?
When she used to stay at his place, they were not in a relationship and were just friends. Cool friends, enough to stay at each other’s places!
At that time, she used to treat him like furniture around the house and used to crash at his place whenever she fought with Luo Dan or had nowhere to go back for a night.
Then it wasn’t a big deal.
However, the situation is different now. They are dating each other, and even though they are a temporary couple for a month, it is still considered dating.
Staying while dating at his place is a BIG deal. For her at the least.

“Then what are you going to do? It’s not like you can drive back home in this weather.” He said while avoiding her gaze and kept looking outside the window.
He had already noticed her crimson and heated earlobes. He was trying hard to not look at her and tried to keep pretending to be cool about the situation as if he didn’t notice her flushed expression.
After he said those words, he couldn’t dare to look at her because his heart was beating fast as if it would jump out of his chest.
‘ She doesn’t think that I am a pervert, would she?’ He wondered if his words were too much for her since it hasn’t been a month since they started dating.
What if she misunderstands his intentions and thinks that he is doing it with a hidden meaning behind his words?
Moreover, the way they started dating is a bit different than that of normal couples, so there are many things that they needed to be careful of before doing anything.

Jia Fei hesitated at his question and was wondering what to do when her phone started to ring. She checked her phone and picked up the call when she saw Luo Dan’s name on the screen.
“Don’t nag at me for coming late. It’s raining hard but I will come back in half an hour. I am just leaving now.” Jia Fei said and wanted to leave as soon as she hangs up the call.
However, Luo Dan stopped her saying, ” No! Don’t go anywhere. Jia Fei, you’re with Yuhan, right?” She asked out of nowhere.
Jia Fei: “.....”
Jia Fei’s eyes widened in shock as she wasn’t expecting Luo Dan to ask such a question. She turned to Yuhan in disbelief and gulped nervously.
She hasn’t told Luo Dan about their relationship yet, how did she find out about it? She wondered.
It wasn’t something wrong but why does it feel like that she has been caught cheating on someone?
Yuhan, already heard Luo Dan’s words coming from the phone since he was standing next to Jia Fei, was also stunned at her questions. However, he wasn’t as shocked as Jia Fei, who was too stunned to speak anything.
While she was standing there frozen while holding the phone, he took the phone from her hands and put it on the speaker before making Jia Fei talk to Luo Dan while he was holding the phone.
Jia Fei soon recovered from the shock and said, “What....what kind of nonsense are you talking about? Yuhan? From where did he come into our conversation?”
“Also, why would I be at Yuhan’s place? I have so many friends to hang out with. Haha! What a stupid question.” She lied through her teeth and laughed awkwardly to hide her nervousness.
Luo Dan: ” I never said that you’re at his place.”
‘Slap’ Jia Fei slapped her mouth when she realized that she spilled the tea herself. Luo Dan asked if she is with Yuhan and not if she is at his place.
She didn’t need to know the TMI. It was too much information for her that she didn’t need.
She glanced at Yuhan hesitantly feeling bad upon being caught by Luo Dan.
It was she who wanted to keep this relationship a secret, but she was the one who dropped the bomb first. Why does it always happen to her?
Yuhan chuckled at Jia Fei’s reaction and found it quite adorable. He doesn’t care if Luo Dan finds out about their relationship or not since it wasn’t something that can be hidden forever.
Sooner or later, they were going to come out clean to everyone. Why not now? Even though they are in a one-month trial relationship for now, it’s still a relationship. They aren’t doing anything illegal.
However, more than Luo Dan finding out about their relationship, he was more interested in Jia Fei’s reaction.
The way she slapped her mouth and let out a low cry after that, he almost pulled her and kissed her on the lips at that moment.
He controlled himself from kissing her while she was on the phone as he didn’t want to embarrass her further. He was sure that she would kick him in the shins if he tried that.
When Luo Dan didn’t hear Jia Fei say anything on the phone, she continued to speak instead. ” I didn’t call you to lecture about it. I just wanted to say, if you’re at his place, stay there for a night.”
” Don’t come back home. Because in the news they’re saying that it’s a typhoon and it can be dangerous to be outside during the rain. So don’t drive and stay at his home and be safe, okay?”
” Yes. I will do that.” Jia Fei said in a meek voice, feeling guilty that she was caught like this and didn’t get to share this news with her first.
“By the way, how did you know that...that I and Yuhan...” Jia Fei asked hesitantly. She was so curious about how Luo Dan found out about their relationship when she didn’t say anything.
Luo Dan chuckled on the phone and said, ” How can I not know when you blush so much while talking on the phone these days? If you wanted to hide it, at least make some efforts to hide it.” She giggled as she teased her.
” Moreover, it’s not hard to guess. Other than Yuhan, there is no other guy around you with whom you’re so close. I was doubtful about both of you for a long time, but seeing you madly in love with your phone these days, I knew that you finally broke your single-life curse.” Luo Dan teased Jia Fei.
“STOP.” Jia Fei’s eyes widened seeing Luo Dan pulling her leg on the phone and Yuhan was chuckling while listening to their conversation.
“Goodnight. Bye.” Jia Fei hurriedly hangs up the phone to shut up Luo Dan from spilling more secrets about her.
Yuhan chuckled after Jia Fei hung up the phone and teased her about what Luo Dan said, ” Hmm. I never knew you had a thing like a ‘single’ curse. Seems like I am your charming prince who broke your ‘Single-life’ curse.” He laughed and continued to bully Jia Fei, who was glaring at him like a wild cat who was ready to bite him back.
“Charming Prince, my foot. Hah!” Jia Fei scoffed and snatched her phone from his hand and went to sit on the couch alone.
” If you have that much extra time to laugh, then go and prepare the guest room for me. I am going to stay here tonight.” She announced confidently.
If it is not a big deal for him, then she will also treat it as usual and stay at his place like she used to do in the past.
” I don’t have a guest room anymore. I renovated that room to an in-house gym.”
