Chapter 264: Chapter 264 Sleep Together (2)

Bo Yan had just said, “Let’s talk later,” and put down his phone when he heard Xia Siyu also on a call: “Hello, hello, I’m out of the elevator. I think that apartment layout is quite nice. Building 1 is actually better. I want that one, isn’t it listed by the owner? I’ll go take a look in a few days.”

She said this while dragging her high heels along.

Bo Yan was startled. What did this mean? Was Xia Siyu buying a house?

Was she going to move out?

At that thought, Bo Yan almost spilled the coffee he was holding.

Xia Siyu must have been very thirsty; seeing the coffee in his hand, she asked, “Can I drink this?”

Bo Yan nodded.

Taking the coffee from his hand, Xia Siyu drank most of it in one go. Then, noticing food on the table, she asked, “Is this your leftover? Can I eat it?”

Actually, Bo Yan hadn’t touched it at all; he had been waiting for her, but he didn’t feel it was appropriate to say so at that moment, so he nodded.

“Wasting food, shameful!” Xia Siyu cast a disdainful glance at him before quickly grabbing the plate barefoot, taking a bite from the sandwich in her left hand and sipping coffee from her right to wash it down.

Bo Yan stood by all the while, holding a napkin. When Xia Siyu put down her coffee, she grabbed the napkin from him: “Thanks.”

Without a word, Bo Yan just watched her as she finished the entire sandwich and drank the rest of the coffee before she seemed to come back to life.

Feeling content, she let out a satisfied burp, then took a cup of water and sipped it slowly.

Bo Yan asked again, his voice very soft, “Are you moving out?”

Xia Siyu nodded: “Yes, my staying here is temporary. It’s quite inconvenient to come in and out.”

“Isn’t this place close to your company?” Bo Yan’s voice became a bit anxious, but he dared not show too much excitement and had to beat around the bush.

“But aren’t you here?”

“Even if you live here, I won’t bother you.”

But I’m afraid I can’t control myself. Xia Siyu swallowed these words without saying them.

She could take it or leave it, and after breaking up, she removed the feelings and was just friends. But occasionally, very occasionally, Bo Yan would still stir some thoughts within her. Sometimes joy, sometimes sorrow, sometimes nostalgia.

She could bury those emotions deeply, but she found that aside from the emotional impact Bo Yan could have on her, what was even scarier was that his physical proximity could also make her heart flutter.

A handsome man and a beautiful woman living together could easily develop an attraction.

If the man stirring her emotions were someone else, she might not be so troubled.

But it just had to be Bo Yan.

She knew that Bo Yan and she had a past that wasn’t very pleasant, and they now annoyed each other, yet she still wanted to see his abs. Wasn’t that a bit too much?

“No worries, anyway, Brother Qin is helping me look for a place. I do have my eye on one, but the owner hasn’t responded yet. I’d like to go see it.”

Bo Yan felt an urgency inside, but he had to keep calm on the outside. He made his case as rationally as possible: “Are you looking to rent? If so, I wouldn’t really recommend you to move out. For one, Qingcheng Apartments has excellent security; if you move out, it’s not guaranteed that you’ll find a place with such good security. Moreover, renting is very unstable; what if the landlord decides to sell? You would have to shamefully look for another place, right?”

“Yeah, I’m planning to buy. The villa I’m interested in is in the ‘Read Shu Yi Zhi’ villa complex. It’s one of the most secure complexes in Yancheng.”

Bo Yan was taken aback; he hadn’t misheard just now, she mentioned wanting to see Building 1.

What a coincidence, that’s the exact one he’s trying to sell!
