Seeing this, Jiang Cheng immediately let go like a gentleman.
Only one thought remained in his mind: Why was Huang Yao in Qiao Yinyin's bathroom?
He then quickly opened the Character Scanning System.
[Name: Huang Yao]
[Age: 19]
[Height: 168 cm]
[charm: 85]
[Body: 98]
[Privacy: 0]
[favorability value: 80.]
After seeing Jiang Cheng clearly, Huang Yao's initial terror evidently turned into panic.
Upon realizing it was Jiang Cheng, her pupils dilated instantly.
This was Qiao Yinyin's boyfriend!
The flustered panic she hadn't managed to steady completely exploded.
In an instant, a scream burst from her throat: "Ah—!"
The sound was sharp and urgent, making Jiang Cheng's ears go numb.
The incredibly loud scream made Jiang Cheng lose his cool completely.
Although the soundproofing of this house was quite good,
they were in the bathroom.
The window was right next to them; if such a scream alerted the neighbors downstairs, it would be embarrassing.
Almost instinctively, Jiang Cheng took a step forward and reached out to cover her mouth.
"Stop screaming."
When someone first came in, she thought it was Qiao Yinyin.
Even when the bathroom door opened, Huang Yao thought it was Qiao Yinyin.
After all, this wasn't the first time something like this had happened.
Jiang Cheng's palm was pressed tightly against her lips; he could clearly feel the trembling of her lips.
Her warm breath also escaped through the gaps between his fingers.
The moment his palm touched her lips, Huang Yao froze.
Muffled by him and unable to make a sound, her eyes bulged wide.
She stared straight at Jiang Cheng's bare upper body.
The tight muscle lines and the faint Mermaid Line across his waist and abdomen all fell into her sight.
Seeing this, Huang Yao couldn't help but swallow her saliva instantly.
She even forgot to struggle, feeling her cheeks burning as if they were on fire.
Even her earlobes turned a deep, purplish red.
While Huang Yao stared blankly at Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng was also looking at her.
At such a close distance.
Jiang Cheng could even clearly smell the scent of shower gel that hadn't yet dissipated from her body.
It wafted into his nostrils mixed with water vapor.
Looking down further, he could even catch a glimpse of her bare shoulders flushed with pink.
A sentence suddenly popped into Jiang Cheng's mind.
"To lower one's head and not see one's feet is already a peerless beauty of the human world."
Seeing Jiang Cheng's eyes fixed on her.
Huang Yao finally shifted her gaze from Jiang Cheng to herself.
So, was she just attracted by Jiang Cheng's sturdy physique and forgot that she wasn't wearing anything?
Realizing this, Huang Yao instantly wanted to bash her own head in.
Her arms were still frozen in mid-air, clearly so panicked she forgot how to cover herself.
Mostly because she didn't have anything to cover herself with.
If she covered the top, she couldn't cover the bottom.
She froze in place like a panicked rabbit.
Seeing that she was about to scream again in her panic.
Jiang Cheng, who was about to let go, covered her mouth again.
Huang Yao blinked.
Tears were almost forced out of her eyes.
She had just finished showering and was naked, while Jiang Cheng was also bare-chested.
The two were so close that their breaths were almost intertwined.
She wanted to shake her head but was afraid of touching Jiang Cheng's hand, so she could only make muffled "woo-woo" sounds from her throat.
"Tell me why you're here first."
Seeing this, Huang Yao immediately nodded, keeping her watery eyes open to show she wouldn't scream.
It wasn't until Jiang Cheng loosened his grip and let her go.
Feeling Jiang Cheng's movement, Huang Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and then said in a weak voice: "I... I came to accompany Yinyin tonight..."
Jiang Cheng's brow furrowed slightly, and the two untouched cups of milk tea he had seen in the living room earlier quickly flashed through his mind.
"Accompany her?" Jiang Cheng's voice carried a hint of doubt. "Then where is Yinyin? Where is she?"
Huang Yao's body trembled slightly, and she answered stutteringly: "She... she went out to buy Barbecue, so I thought I'd shower first and wait for her..."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng's temple throbbed imperceptibly, full of helplessness: "Then why didn't you lock the door when you showered?"
Huang Yao was stunned instead, her eyes showing a "what's the problem" kind of daze: "Why should I lock the door? When Yinyin and I are in the school dormitory, we don't lock the door when we shower."
These words were like a small pebble hitting Jiang Cheng's heart.
It made him instantly lose his words.
The words he had originally intended to use to PUA Huang Yao were instantly choked back.
They say girls' dormitories are wilder than boys'.
So this gave Jiang Cheng another piece of evidence.
For a moment, he couldn't find any words to refute her.
The scene suddenly froze, with only the remaining water vapor in the bathroom slowly drifting in the air.
Seeing Jiang Cheng's face full of speechlessness, Huang Yao's head also drooped.
It wasn't like she wanted to be seen naked by her best friend's boyfriend.
In her panic, she had actually forgotten that she could have just grabbed a Bath Towel from the side to cover herself and solve the problem.
After slowly lowering her head, she froze instantly and immediately squatted down.
However, by squatting like this, Huang Yao instantly felt like an idiot again.
Jiang Cheng was standing while she was squatting—what kind of posture was this?
In the past, whenever people said "big breasts, no brains," she would fiercely refute them.
Now, for the first time, she felt that those words were somewhat right.
Not daring to look up again, she immediately buried her head in her lap. She bit her lower lip, her voice as thin as a mosquito's buzz: "You... you close your eyes first and get out."
What should be seen had been seen, and what shouldn't be seen, Jiang Cheng had also seen.
At this moment, he naturally wouldn't be greedy for a few more seconds.
"Fine, fine, fine! I'm going out now!"
After going out, Jiang Cheng quickly put on his clothes. Since he was no longer in the bedroom, he walked straight toward the living room.
Just as Jiang Cheng was thinking about how to explain things when Qiao Yinyin returned, Huang Yao had already hurriedly dressed and followed him out.
Her steps were a bit frantic, as if she hadn't yet recovered from what had just happened.
After walking into the living room, her hands tightly gripped the hem of her clothes, looking very ill at ease.
The moment Jiang Cheng looked up at her.
The tips of her ears immediately flushed red.
After hesitating for several seconds, she finally plucked up the courage and, biting the bullet, said to Jiang Cheng: "About... about what just happened, don't tell Yinyin."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng naturally breathed a secret sigh of relief.
He hadn't planned on telling Qiao Yinyin about this in the first place.
After all, this wouldn't be a pleasant thing for Qiao Yinyin.
However, even though he thought this way internally.
Jiang Cheng deliberately feigned a puzzled look.
He asked back: "Why? Nothing happened between the two of us. Why can't I say it?"
Hearing this, Huang Yao's expression was clearly a bit dazed.
"What do you mean 'why'? If you tell her, how can I face Yinyin in the future?"
"Why can't you face her? Just tell the truth—say I mistook you for someone else when I went in, and then I came out."
Huang Yao had originally thought that a Second-generation rich guy as handsome as Jiang Cheng must be a passionate scumbag.
But this answer now was clearly beyond her expectations.
Isn't this way too dense?
