A minute later, Fang Erlan stood on his bed and pressed her foot onto his back to test the pressure, after which she planted both feet onto his back and began massaging him.
"Am I heavy?"
"You're as heavy as a mountain."
Upon hearing his mean comment, she kicked him and chastised, "I'm giving you a massage yet you still have so much crap to say."
He grunted in pain and retorted, "I only said it because you asked."
After some thought, "Don't tell your fiancée about the massages that I've been giving you. We won't be meeting much once filming officially ends anyway. I don't want her to get the wrong idea."
Yan Ge did not answer.
A silence filled the room.
After stepping on his back for a while, Fang Erlan got off him and knelt on the bed to massage him with her hands."I feel just like a maid whenever I massage you."
"I don't have such an ugly maid like you."
Fang Erlan almost choked in anger and rebuked, "Would it kill you to be kinder with your words?"
"It won't, but it'll make me feel miserable."
"..."
Fang Erlan was filled with an inexplicable feeling. Unable to contain her anger, she pinched the flesh on his back forcefully.
He turned around and said, "Ah... women are the most vicious."
"I just want to pinch you to death."
He glanced at her and guffawed.
"How dare you still laugh, " she chided, giving him a smack.
To Fang Erlan's astonishment, he sat up straight all of a sudden."Don't you want a massage anymore?"
"Lie down, I'll give you a massage instead."
"Really?" Fang Erlan asked in surprise, feeling flattered.
"Yes..."
She hurriedly lay on her stomach, thinking to herself that she ought to enjoy the rare treatment from him given that she had given him so many massages before.
Due to the fact that his hands were big and strong, she instantly felt a huge relief in her back.
Fang Erlan lay on the bed and closed her eyes in pleasure."Not bad."
"How are my skills compared to yours?"
"Although you're a good masseuse, you're still lacking in finesse compared to me."
"..."
Fang Erlan dozed off while lying in his bed, too weary and fatigued because she did not sleep well the night before. Yan Ge had already massaged her for about twenty minutes by the time he realized that she had fallen asleep.
He stopped and leaned against the headboard to gaze at her while she was sound asleep with her eyes closed.
He did not really harbor any romantic feelings for her and instead just decided to massage her because he felt an urge to.
He did not wake her up and, instead, began to read a book that he had placed beside his bed.
All of a sudden, Yan Ge felt a hand on his waist and looked over to see that she had turned to lie on her side and was hugging him.
He moved her hand away.
However, not long after he did, she moved her hand around again and placed it onto Yan Ge's crotch, causing him to freeze and tense up immediately.
Yet, Fang Erlan had no idea since she was deep in her sleep.
He got out of bed and placed his book on the headboard, after which he pulled the duvet over her and exited.
Fang Erlan was left alone in the room and only woke up two hours later.
She immediately got out of bed the moment she realized that she was in Yan Ge's room.
She folded the duvet, placed it back onto the bed, and left the room after arranging the bedsheets.
Soon after she left, Yan Ge returned with lunch.
He saw that the bed was empty and that the duvet had already been arranged.
At this moment, he seemed to be able to imagine the way she looked when she was folding the duvet. He decided to give her a call.
"Come inside my room."
"What for..."
"I bought you lunch."
Fang Erlan was at a momentary loss for words."Why did you buy me lunch?" she asked.
"I bought it along the way."
"Alright." She headed to his room with her wallet and placed the money for the food onto the table before digging in.
Yan Ge did not say anything upon seeing the cash on the table.
The doorbell rang all of sudden.
They looked at each other, after which Fang Erlan quickly scurried toward the door to look into the peephole.
When she discovered that it was Xin Min at the door, Fang Erlan immediately ran toward the balcony and squatted down.
Yan Ge could not help but feel amused to see how worried and frantic she was, as if she had just done something shameful. We're just having lunch, aren't we?
"It's pouring so heavily right now. Why did you come here?"
Xin Min entered and said with a smile, "I cast my work aside and decided to spend more time with you here. I've already instructed Xiao Li to carry my luggage into my room and given him my key card."
"I'm in the midst of filming, it won't be convenient for you to... follow me everywhere all day, " said Yan Ge, a little peeved about the fact that she had acted before asking for his permission.
"Rest assured, I won't show my face in front of the media. I'll be very, very careful."
"Do you really plan to stay in this hotel?"
"Of course, I came here prepared." As soon as she finished speaking, she looked at the half-eaten food on the table and asked, "Who were you eating with?"
"My colleague, " Yan Ge answered coldly.
"I haven't had lunch either."
"Go and eat later, then."
Feeling rather disappointed, Xin Min said, "I thought you would help me call for room service."
Yan Ge casually glanced at the balcony and said, "I have to resume filming at night so I have to catch up on sleep. If there's nothing else, you may go back to your room."
Dejection was written all over Xin Min's face."I want to stay with you, I won't disturb you, " she insisted.
He did not argue further and continued to have his meal. Somehow, he seemed to have lost his appetite and the food seemed to have become tasteless.
He constantly comforted himself that she was the wife he wanted, the fiancée he was engaged to, and that it would be better for the two of them to nurture their feelings for each other.
Xin Min looked out of the window and said, "The rain is still very heavy today. It seems like a flood is about to happen."
Noticing that she was about to walk toward the balcony after coming out of the washroom, Yan Ge said, "Let's go out for a walk."
"Aren't you afraid of being seen by your fans or the paparazzi?"
"Didn't you already follow me around previously? I'll tell my manager to liaise with the reporters."
"Give me a moment. Let me look at the weather, " she said, pointing at the balcony.
Yan Ge took a deep breath and said, "There's no need for that..."
She insisted and opened the balcony door. Yan Ge was displeased to see that he could not stop her.
Xin Min smiled at him and said, "The rain is still very heavy, let's stay here instead."
Noticing that she did not seem to have found anything suspicious, Yan Ge walked toward the balcony, only to find that Fang Erlan was no longer there.
He panicked and looked down from the balcony. However, he did not see anything.
Could it be...
Just as he was about to run out, his mobile phone began to ring.
He took a look at the caller display and saw that it was Fang Erlan who had called.
He immediately answered, "Hello."
"I've already returned to my room."
He ended the call, feeling much more relieved.
He headed to the balcony and took another close look to see that there were footprints on the bushes and plants on the ledge that connected the balconies of room 802 and 804 together. The ledge was extremely narrow and only spanned across a width of about 50 centimeters.
That loony actually climbed over to the balcony of her room, all because she was afraid of making Xin Min jealous.
Wasn't she afraid of falling to her death? he thought to himself angrily.
"Why aren't there any anti-theft windows on this floor? Will the hotel be held responsible and compensate guests should anything happen?"
