Until they arrived at the guest room door, Lin Xiu glanced back at Liu Yun, who wore a face full of displeasure, signaling to her with his eyes.
“Yun-jie, open the door.”
Liu Yun met the boy’s gaze, stubbornly holding out for nearly two minutes before finally sighing and swiping her card to open the door.
But in the next instant, she stood firmly in front of the doorway, her expression earnest.
“Hand me your luggage. You don’t need to go in.”
Hearing this, Lin Xiu immediately put on an exaggeratedly incredulous face.
“Yun-jie, are you serious? I carried your luggage all the way from the airport. You should at least let me in for a glass of water.”
Liu Yun snorted softly at that.
“First, we took a taxi from the airport to here. Second, there’s only bottled water in the hotel room. For someone as spoiled as you…”
Yet before Liu Yun could finish her words, the boy suddenly lowered his head and kissed her red lips, leaving her stunned.
Seeing this, Lin Xiu smirked, picked up the luggage, and slipped past Liu Yun into the room.
Only after lying on the soft hotel bed did he speak, with a mischievous tone.
“It’s fine. I actually like bottled water.”
Looking at this shameless boy, Liu Yun’s chest heaved in anger—even the bandages couldn’t hide the rise and fall.
But who made her the Ninja Turtle after all? In the end, Liu Yun took a deep breath, handed the boy a bottle of mineral water from the coffee table, and turned to head out the door.
Lin Xiu blinked in surprise, quickly asking,
“Yun-jie, where are you going?”
Liu Yun replied irritably,
“If you won’t leave, then I will. I’ll go book another room.”
Hearing the faint grievance in her voice, Lin Xiu couldn’t help but feel amused, yet he still tried to reason with her.
“Yun-jie, just so you know, if you book another room, the company won’t reimburse the cost.”
Liu Yun’s footsteps faltered, but she forced herself to grit her teeth and replied,
“It’s just a room, I’ll pay for it myself if I have to!”
This shameless guy—he took her room and still acts so justified. How utterly hateful!
Just as Liu Yun was about to step out, Lin Xiu finally sighed and called softly,
“Yun-jie, look, what’s this?”
Liu Yun instinctively turned her head, a bad premonition arising in her chest, but it was already too late.
As golden light flickered in the boy’s pupils, Liu Yun’s body, as expected, fell at lightning speed into a trance once more…
Lin Xiu walked up to her, gazing at the woman whose eyes had gone vacant, and tasted her plum blossom-scented lips.
“Sure enough, you’re even cuter before the hypnosis…”
Liu Yun burned with anger inside. Then why don’t you stop hypnotizing me, you bastard!
As if reading her mind, Lin Xiu said softly,
“Yun-jie, after I snap my fingers later, you’ll forget everything that happened just now. But you won’t go book another room—instead, to save money, you’ll choose to stay with me, in the same room, in the same bed…”
“Now, repeat what I just said.”
Liu Yun nodded stiffly, lips moving mechanically to repeat his words.
“After Master snaps his fingers, I’ll forget what just happened, but I won’t book another room…”
Once she’d finished, Lin Xiu nodded in satisfaction. But that wasn’t enough; he continued,
“Yun-jie, you work so diligently for the Lin Group, so from now on, I’ve decided to thank you by giving you massages.”
“So after you wake up, whenever you hear the word ‘massage,’ you’ll agree without hesitation, and you’ll follow my suggestions for what the massage entails, no matter what…”
Once everything was set, Lin Xiu snapped his fingers.
Immediately, a familiar but even stronger wave of dizziness surged through Liu Yun’s mind.
She was so ashamed and angry she wanted to die—she knew exactly what kind of ‘massage’ that brat meant!
After all, he was never so kind. That so-called massage was obviously just an excuse to bully her!
And as for the previous hypnosis command—she didn’t want to stay with him, yet he shamelessly forced it on her.
But right now, Liu Yun really felt that booking another room would be a waste of money…
While Liu Yun inwardly cursed Lin Xiu, the boy spoke again.
“Yun-jie, you’re disguised as a man now. Since we’re both ‘men,’ there’s no problem with two guys squeezing into one room, right? No need to waste money on another.”
Liu Yun listened to his ridiculous logic, internally sneering, but could only nod awkwardly on the surface.
“Ah, mm, what you said makes sense…”
If she wasn’t afraid of exposing the fact that she hadn’t been hypnotized—and thus causing even worse consequences—Liu Yun would never be a Ninja Turtle…
Seeing her agree, Lin Xiu’s gaze shifted, and he smiled faintly.
“In that case, Yun-jie, tidy up a bit. Later we can go eat, and then go shopping…”
Liu Yun packed her things with resignation, replying coolly,
“I have to meet the regional director of Lin Group this afternoon for work, so Master, you’ll have to go by yourself.”
As she spoke, she glanced at the large bed in the room, a faint blush crossing her face.
So for the next while, she really had to share a bed with this bastard?
Such a ridiculous thing made Liu Yun want to die. She’d come to Sanya to avoid this guy, so how did it come to this in the end?
Lin Xiu thought for a moment after hearing this.
“I see. Then I’ll go with you, Yun-jie. Shopping isn’t urgent anyway.”
Liu Yun responded absently with a “whatever,” then pulled out her laptop to handle her work. After all, the Chairman had sent her to negotiate a partnership—she couldn’t let him down.
Lin Xiu lay on the bed, watching Liu Yun work with total focus, the sunlight shining on her through the window. For a moment, he found himself distracted, his urge to cause trouble gradually fading away…
When Liu Yun finally checked the time and got up, she turned to find the boy already asleep on the bed.
She rolled her beautiful eyes, tiptoed up, grabbed the necessary documents, and slipped out. There was no way she’d take this troublemaker along to work.
As long as she could get away from him, even if just for a little while, Liu Yun felt it was well worth it.
It was nearly five in the afternoon when Lin Xiu finally woke up.
He looked around the room. Liu Yun was long gone, and Lin Xiu couldn’t help but curl his lips.
“What a disobedient woman.”
She dared to sneak off behind his back—looks like she’d need a little punishment tonight.
With that in mind, Lin Xiu freshened up a bit, preparing to call Liu Yun.
But before he could even place the call, Liu Yun had already come back with some food.
