With that, Luo Hanshang let go of her hand and took the lead to leave the elevator.
Ning Jiang stood in the elevator in a daze for a long time.
When the elevator door was about to close, Luo Hanshang turned around and blocked the door: "Won't you come out?"
Ning Jiang came back to her senses and walked out.
"Tonight's di er is not very good at all. The noodles there are far worse than the noodles you cooked."
Luo Hanshang changed the topic.
Ning Jiang didn't pursue the previous topic anymore.
Think of it as a joke.
"How can the noodles I cook compare to a chef?"
"I'm praising you. Why aren't you thanking me? Why are you acting so modest?"
Of course he would not tell her that after all these years, he had never been able to eat a better noodles than the one she cooked.
The noodles she cooked had a homey taste.
Luo Hanshang pushed open the door.
Ning Jiang hesitated for a moment before following him in.
Sure enough, the waiter had already moved their luggage into the presidential suite.
Luo Hanshang told her to sit down, so he went into the bathroom to take a bath.
It was already late, and Ning Jiang was feeling awkward as she sat on the sofa.
How will they sleep tonight?
She was living under the same roof as him now, but they weren't husband and wife, nor were they friends.
Their relationship was unclear. It really couldn't get any more awkward.
After some thought, she called the front desk and got someone to send her a set of quilts.
She laid the blanket on the sofa before Luo Hanshang came out.
She lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.
Luo Hanshang came out. Seeing that the TV was not turned on, and that she was sleeping on the sofa, he couldn't help but frown and get a oyed.
Was this woman afraid that he would eat her?
Wrapped in a bathrobe, he came to the sofa and prodded her knee with his foot.
Ning Jiang initially wanted to pretend to be asleep, but his intentions were too obvious that she couldn't continue pretending.
She opened her eyes and frowned."I'm very sleepy and want to sleep. Is there anything else?"
"Who let you sleep here."
Ning Jiang sat up."Then sleep here, I'll sleep on the bed."
Luo Hanshang's face darkened."I never sleep on the sofa."
"That's great. In order to work overtime, I often sleep on the sofa. I'm already used to it. Let's just sleep like this. Good night."
With that, she lay down on the sofa.
However, Luo Hanshang picked her up the moment she laid down.
Ning Jiang exclaimed, "Luo Hanshang, what are you doing? Let go of me."
However, Luo Hanshang was too lazy to listen to her.
He found out that this woman had a glib tongue. It was impossible to communicate with her through words. Using brute force was obviously more effective than persuading her.
He threw her into the soft bed.
She sat up, brushed her disheveled hair, and glared at him.
"Luo Hanshang, can you not always make things difficult for me? You're very a oying this way, do you know that?"
"I, Luo Hanshang, will not let a woman sleep on the sofa."
She said gloomily, "You and the other women do the same?"
After she asked this question, she regretted it. The other women probably couldn't wait to get into his bed.
"The other women didn't even provoke me. They didn't even have the chance to enter this room."
Ning Jiang wanted to get off the bed, but Luo Hanshang stepped to the side and blocked her.
"You only have one choice, sleep with me on this bed. If you anger me, you have to bear the consequences."
Luo Hanshang looked down at her with a serious expression. He didn't seem to be joking at all.
Ning Jiang weighed the pros and cons before asking, "Can you promise that you won't touch me?"
"Do you hate me that much?"
"I didn't say I hate you. I just don't want to do that sort of thing."
Luo Hanshang's expression was cold as he said in a deep voice, "Alright, I won't touch you. You can go to sleep now."
Ning Jiang moved back a little and lay down on the side of the bed.
Luo Hanshang snorted: "It's really tiring for you to sleep on the bed."
He went around to the other side of the bed and lay down.
He turned off the light.
In the dark, Ning Jiang consoled herself. They were just sleeping in the same bed, so it was no big deal.
However, Luo Hanshang suddenly wrapped his arms around her waist.
She suddenly became nervous and shouted, "Luo Hanshang, you just promised me??"
Luo Hanshang said in a low voice: "Don't let your thoughts run wild, I just want you to sleep in the middle of the bed. If you fall out of bed in the middle of the night, who do you blame? "
He carried her to the middle of the bed and released her.
Ning Jiang blushed. It was fortunate that the lights in the room were turned off, otherwise she would lose face.
"I'm not going to fall out of bed. I'm not a three-year-old."
All these years, how well-behaved could she be in her sleep? She didn't even want to show off.
Chuchen slept like he was practicing martial arts.
That brat took up more than half of their large bed, especially at night. She would occasionally get beaten up when she slept near the middle of the bed, so??
Thinking about Chuchen, she suddenly remembered that she didn't call him today.
She didn't know if he was resting well in North City and if he had missed her.
Thinking about Chuchen, Ning Jiang gradually relaxed. Not long later, she also fell asleep.
As for Luo Hanshang, because Ning Jiang was by his side, he also slept exceptionally well.
This was the first time in more than five years that he had slept so soundly.
When Ning Jiang woke up in the morning, she opened her eyes and was stu ed when she saw Luo Hanshang's face.
Because he was staring at her.
She awkwardly replied, "You're awake."
"Yes, I just woke up."
Luo Hanshang did not look embarrassed at all, "You're drooling."
Ning Jiang sat up and wiped her mouth. There was no saliva at all.
She turned her head and glared at him.
He laughed."You really do believe it."
"Luo Hanshang, you're so childish, why are you lying?"
Luo Hanshang had a satisfied look on his face: "I'm teasing you, I'll help you cheer up."
She rolled her eyes at him, got out of bed, and went to the bathroom.
After she finished washing her face, Luo Hanshang said, "I ordered breakfast."
"Alright."
"What are you busy with today?"
Ning Jiang shook her head."No."
"Then I'll have someone book a plane ticket."
Ning Jiang looked at him. Were they going to return to North City now?
"What? Are you still hesitating? Do you still want to resist?"
Ning Jiang came back to her senses, "Didn't the police say that I can't leave the Hai City until this matter is investigated?"
"Last night, after we fell asleep, the police sent me a message saying that you were free of suspicion. People with surname Wang didn't find your contact information in their cell phones at all. Under the interrogation of the police, Wang admitted that he was instigated by the surnamed Chen to look for you. Right now, you are just a victim."
Ning Jiang heaved a sigh of relief in her heart.
Luo Hanshang took out his phone, called his subordinates and booked a plane ticket.
After lunch, the two of them arrived at the airport together.
At 4 PM in the afternoon, the plane slowly landed at North City Airport.
On the way home, Ning Jiang had mixed feelings as she looked at the familiar street scene from five years ago.
Before she left, she really wanted to never return to this city ever again.
But after just five years, she had slapped herself in the face.
She silently muttered in her heart. North City?? Hello, I'm back.
