The destination was an ancient town. Lin Jie led the way in his car, followed by seven or eight cars following behind.

After arriving at the booked hotel, he discovered that Lin Jie had booked a Bamboo House Inn in an ancient town.

The inn is divided into three floors and has a large space. Lin Jie took them to the front desk to check in and each received their own room cards.

Ruan Liqing is on the third floor, room 303, and Gu Yao is in room 301, with a room in between.

Gu Yao glanced at Ruan Liqing's room card and clicked his tongue, "Which of you lives in 302 or 304, please change the room?"

Ruan Liqing raised her eyes, "What are you doing?"

Gu Yao looked at her with a half-smile, "I don't like this room number, okay?"

"Oh~ Don't you think Mr. Gu wants to take the opportunity to get closer to Assistant Ruan?" Someone who knew about their relationship booed, and the people next to him started teasing him.

Ruan Liqing knew the reason why they did this, but even seeing that she had a relationship with Gu Yao before, it was not a big deal to watch the fun.

Not too lazy to explain, Ruan Liqing lowered her head and sent a WeChat message.

"302 is here with me. Do you want to change it, Mr. Gu?" Suddenly, Shen Zhuo spoke. He raised the key card in his hand and threw it to Gu Yao nonchalantly.

Gu Yao reached out to catch it and raised his eyebrows, "Thank you."

Ruan Liqing didn't care about this. Anyway, even if Shen Zhuo lived next door to her, the two of them would not have any intersection.

She picked up her luggage and headed upstairs. Since she only planned to stay for two days, she didn't bring much, just some changes of clothes and cosmetics.

However, before walking up the stairs, the suitcase in her hand was cut off. Gu Yao took the suitcase in her hand and looked behind her, "Ruan Liqing, women must learn to be weak."

This time, except for a few of them, the rest of the young men who came together basically brought their female companions. Ruan Liqing followed his line of sight and looked back, and saw the girls chattering next to her partner, holding their hands in their hands. I didn't take anything except my bag.

Even Fu Yanran followed Shen Zhuo and said pitifully, "Professor Shen, can you help me lift it up? My feet are inconvenient."

Shen Zhuo nodded generously, picked up her suitcase and walked away. The stairs of the bamboo building were narrow, so he happened to bump into Ruan Liqing while carrying the suitcase.

The faint smell of cedar came, and Ruan Liqing subconsciously stepped aside. However, she did not notice that the inn was originally made of bamboo, but on the ground next to the stairwell, the originally tightly arranged bamboos were cracked in one place. .

Ruan Liqing is used to maintaining a refined and decent appearance outside, and she always wears high heels on her feet.

The moment her center of gravity became unstable, Ruan Liqing closed her eyes reflexively. However, the pain she imagined did not come. Instead, someone hugged her tightly around the waist, bringing her close to an embrace filled with the smell of cedar.

Ruan Liqing opened her eyes and saw Shen Zhuo's tense jaw.

He lowered his eyelashes and looked at her with no emotion in his eyes, "Assistant Ruan, be careful."

Ruan Liqing held on to the railing next to her and moved her eyes to Shen Zhuo's hand still holding her waist.

Shen Zhuo let go of his hand in the next second, distanced himself from her, and then asked indifferently and tiredly, "Can I go up?"

Was she afraid that she would let him help her up?

Ruan Liqing's lowered eyelashes blocked the trace of sarcasm in her eyes. Just as she was about to speak, she was stopped and picked up.

Gu Yao's deep voice rang in her ears, "You can twist your feet even if you're good, but you're still so stupid."

Ruan Liqing twisted uncomfortably, "Gu Yao, what are you doing? Let me down!"

"Shut up, I'm a doctor."

Shen Zhuo stood there, looking at Gu Yao's domineering figure as he carried Ruan Liqing upstairs. She huddled in the man's arms, looking fragile and petite, with no resistance.

The legs of the wide-leg pants were rolled up a bit, revealing the white and slender ankles, which were shaking slightly.

Shen Zhuo stared at her ankles, his originally dark pupils becoming darker and darker.

That night, Ruan Liqing was like this too, her ankles hanging there weakly, swaying from time to time.
