Chapter 32 Not locked?

"Mr. Yu, I'm so sorry!" Luo Xiaolei's eyes were wide as she looked at the mess on Yu Chen's suit. She was so flustered she didn't know what to do.

Gladly, Yu Chen seemed unbothered by it and he immediately said the words "It's fine" the moment he noticed Luo Xiaolei's apologetic expression.

Somehow, his ever so calm reaction made Luo Xiaolei relax and she could only offer for him to take a shower first and get changed before leaving. Surprisingly, the man didn't even hesitate and said "okay" immediately.

Thus, just like that, the two ended up alone together inside her house again.

"Mr. Yu, I'll try to go find something that you could wear for the time being." Luo Xiaolei said as she gave him a white towel.

"Okay, thank you."

"If you need something, please tell me."

"Mm."

Luo Xiaolei then headed towards her room. She pushed the door open but before she stepped inside, she slowly turned around to take a glance at him. When she saw him going through the bathroom's door, Luo Xiaolei heaved a deep sigh of relief.

"Sigh… Luo Xiaolei, be glad that this almighty Yu Chen is such an angel or else…" Luo Xiaolei couldn't even imagine what would have happened to her if Yu Chen was actually like what the rumors said. If he was truly ruthless and heartless like everyone thought he was, what kind of situation would she have been in right now? "Sigh… I better find him something to wear."

After rummaging through her closet, Luo Xiaolei finally found a pyjama pant she thought might be big enough for him. This was an oversized pant that she bought online months ago. She really liked the cute little pandas printed on its fluffy white fabric so she bought it but when it arrived at her door, the pyjama turned out to be big for her and the size was actually for a man. She planned to return it but she hadn't had the time until she eventually forgot about it. It seemed like the pyjama pant was fated to stay with her just for this day… but… how could she let that king wear something like this?! Yu Chen, the devil, wearing panda printed pyjama?!!

Luo Xiaolei began imagining the chibi version of him and she didn't know whether to feel worried or let out a laugh. Moreover, all the oversized t-shirts she found had all been used by her. Would he be fine with it? Ugh! Never mind! Let's just take these and let him choose! No worries, the Yu Chen with me right now isn't the devil, but the angel.

…

Luo Xiaolei was sitting on the couch with the clothes on her lap as her gaze was locked on the closed bathroom door. She had been sitting there for a while now, yet the man inside still hadn't come out. What's taking him so long? Was he the type of man who spent more time than a girl in the bathroom getting ready? Or wait… could it be that he was waiting for the clothes inside?!

Thinking about it, Luo Xiaolei thought that since Yu Chen seemed to be a man from the era of chivalry, it was really possible that he might have been thinking that going out of the bathroom with just a towel covering him, inside the house of a girl, would be improper and inconsiderate. Somehow, Luo Xiaolei couldn't help but be convinced with this reasoning. After all, this was Yu Chen, the chivalrous man.

"Okay, I better go and see. It'd be bad if he catches a cold." Luo Xiaolei then took the clothes with her and walked towards the bathroom door.

She knocked softly three times as she spoke. "Mr. Yu, here are your clothes."

But there was no response. Luo Xiaolei's brows creased and her hand went to the door knob. She twisted it and to her surprise, it wasn't locked. Ehh? It's not locked? Could it be that he left while I was rummaging for his clothes inside my room?

"Mr. Yu? Are you alright? I'm opening the door!" Luo Xiaolei bit her lip and she pushed the door open.
