Chapter 1192 Swim Together
Zhao Liangze quickly unpacked his luggage in the guest room. After everything was arranged as if this was his real home, he carefully thought about everything that had happened since he ran into Bai Shuang and her actual temperament as a person. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Huo Shaoheng was being overly concerned.Bai Shuang was not that kind of person; she would never do the kind of things her father did.
Zhao Liangze felt that his judgment was correct.
He raked his fingers through his hair vigorously, then went outside to find Huo Shaoheng to discuss it again.
But when he pushed on the master bedroom door, he found that it was closed firmly even though it was daytime. He could only imagine what was happening inside.
Zhao Liangze snickered and thought to himself that Huo Shao was intoxicated with a woman. So why did he forbid Zhao Liangze and Bai Shuang’s fate of being together?!
Of course, he rationally admitted that Huo Shaoheng’s approach was the correct way to do it.
With their line of work, they really did not have the effort and time to spend on women.
While romances appeared incomparably beautiful, every moment of it could be lurking with lethal danger.
His mind was a mess, but Huo Shao was busy now and probably didn’t have the time to worry about him.
He went back to the guest room to change his swimming trunks so he could swim in the pool in the courtyard.
As soon as he arrived at the courtyard, he didn’t even have time to get into the water before seeing a woman in a red dress sauntering over.
This time, her red dress was a different style than before. The front was modest, but the back had a deep and revealing plunge. Her long hair flowed behind her to conceal some of the seductive sight.
But whenever the wind lifted her long hair, he could see the alluring expanse of her back.
Zhao Liangze’s heart sank, yet there was no change in expression on his face.
He first sent a text message to Huo Shaoheng, telling him that Bai Shuang had already arrived. Then, he walked slowly over to the short, white courtyard gates and whistled at the woman in the red dress gliding over. “Gorgeous, do you want to come in for a cup of tea?”
The woman in the red dress turned around. It was none other than Bai Shuang.
She frowned and looked unhappy as she said, “Zhao Liangze, be honest with me. Are you following me?”
Zhao Liangze asked, “...I’m following you?”
He looked back at his courtyard and smiled lazily with his arms crossed as he said, “I’m staying here, and you came up to my door. Now you’re saying that I’m following you?”
The glaring sunlight from the southern hemisphere illuminated Zhao Liangze’s tanned and shiny skin. His skin exuded powerful masculinity and seemed as if it was greased with oil.
It was strange when she thought about it since the first thing about Zhao Liangze that had attracted Bai Shuang was his fair skin and handsome bookishness. Now that he was much tougher looking, Bai Shuang did not feel that her attraction faded at all, but grew stronger instead.
Bai Shuang squinted her eyes at him. “...Didn’t you know that I’m staying here, and that was why you decided to book a hotel suite here and be close to me?”
Zhao Liangze, “!!!”
“You’re actually staying here? When did you check in? I booked a room here a long time ago!” Zhao Liangze said dubiously.
Bai Shuang sneered and pointed at him, saying, “Go and investigate for yourself when I checked in. Don’t look at me with that expression; it’s obvious from your face that you want to play around with my cousin and me at the same time. Don’t try deceiving yourself or other people.”
Zhao Liangze leaned on the short, white courtyard door and smiled as he moved his head closer to Bai Shuang. “...You really don’t want to come in and sit? I have coffee. I can make some for you,” he said.
Bai Shuang thought for a while, putting her hand on her forehead and looking at the road ahead. She muttered to herself, “It’s still early, and nothing is going on today anyway...”
“Come on in.” Zhao Liangze grabbed Bai Shuang’s hand and pushed open the short, white courtyard door. “Did you bring a swimsuit? Should we swim together?”
Bai Shuang rolled her eyes and replied, “Swim together? Don’t you know how tiny the swimming pools are here? You can swim by yourself. I have other things to do. Goodbye.” She raised her chin and walked away.
Zhao Liangze did not stop her, nor did he point out the contradictions in her words.
He merely leaned on the short, white courtyard door as he smiled and watched Bai Shuang walk off.
The smile on Zhao Liangze’s face gradually faded when he saw Bai Shuang walking through the gates of the apartment next door.
At that moment, he felt an even stronger urge to swim.
Walking back with shoulders slumped, Zhao Liangze jumped into the swimming pool and swam recklessly.
...
Inside Gu Nianzhi’s bedroom, Huo Shaoheng saw Zhao Liangze’s text message before he even finished.
From that moment on, he decided never to put his phone on the nightstand ever again...
Because Bai Shuang was coming, Huo Shaoheng had to leave immediately. However, he found it extremely difficult to go at a time like this.
Everything about Gu Nianzhi intoxicated him, but their time together was always too fleeting. So, he turned to his most physical instincts to express his reluctance to leave his beloved.
...
Huo Shaoheng left in a hurry, so Gu Nianzhi quickly packed away Huo Shaoheng’s things into the suitcase and put it into a locked closet before going to the bathroom to take a shower.
After washing up, she came outside to choose an outfit to change into.
This time, Huo Shaoheng had left too many marks on her body. The short-sleeved T-shirt and short shorts she had worn that morning were out of the question now. Gu Nianzhi had no choice but to select a long halter dress with a small, short-sleeved silk cardigan to cover her arms and back.
This long dress went down to her ankles and was also called a maxi dress. Paired with flip-flops, this outfit was perfect for taking stylish photos on the beach.
Gu Nianzhi spun around in front of the mirror happily, then opened the bedroom door with still-wet hair.
There was no one in the silent living room.
Gu Nianzhi thought it was a little strange.
Huo Shaoheng had shown her his phone just now. There was a text message from Zhao Liangze.
Where did Bai Shuang go?
Did she go to the guest room where Zhao Liangze was staying to communicate their feelings?
Gu Nianzhi thought about this as she knocked on the door of the guest room. “Brother Ze?”
That room was completely quiet as well.
Gu Nianzhi was puzzled and turned the door handle.
The door opened unexpectedly with a click.
Zhao Liangze hadn’t even locked the door.
Gu Nianzhi glanced at the guest room to see that there was no one inside.
Where did they go?
Gu Nianzhi closed the guest room door before walking out of the living room and standing at the front door.
In the yard, she could only hear the sound of rushing water. There was a shiny black figure floating among the blue waves. It appeared very beautiful.
But there was only one person.
Gu Nianzhi quietly walked out, holding her skirt up, and came to the edge of the pool. She saw that only one person was swimming in the pool – it was Zhao Liangze.
She glanced around but did not see anyone else.
Gu Nianzhi sat down on the rattan lounge chair by the pool and called out to Zhao Liangze, “Brother Ze, where is she?”
Zhao Liangze felt uncomfortable, so he had swum a dozen laps in one go.
Hearing someone call out to him, he looked up to see Gu Nianzhi standing by the pool and nodded at her. “Who is here? Who are you looking for?”
“Bai Shuang. Didn’t you send a text saying that she was here?”
