Imperfect Desires

Chapter 628 Base Zero

628 Base Zero

Han Bohai spent another five minutes r=trying to convince himself that Ying had left but when he couldn't convince himself very much, he opened the door of his room and found Ying right where he left her. Her head was still leaning against the wall and her eyes were closed. She definitely looked like she was sleeping.

Clenching his hands into tight fists, his mind screamed, 'This is all your fault! Sister Xiu! Why did you even make me this nosy?!' If this incident had happened before meeting his Sister Xiu, he could say that he'd have walked away without feeling bad about it. But now, he couldn't do so. Even if he hated this situation, he couldn't run from it. He didn't want to let his Sister Xiu down.

"Hey!" She didn't move. He tried to shake her but she kept sleeping.

He picked up Ying and walked inside his room. He had just laid her down on the couch when she slightly opened her eyes and smiled lazily, "Oh hi, handsome!" Her eyes brightened as she added, "I never thought a handsome guy like you would princess-carry me one day. Ah! What a day!"

"It's not what you think," he retorted.

"No need to be shy. I like open people who know what they want and how to get what they want. Although I'd prefer starting from zero-base, if you want to straight go for a home-run, I don't mind."

Han Bohai choked on air as he stepped away from her, "You're wasted!" He ran his fingers through his damp hair and added, "I can't believe someone let you drink. Your drunk version is something like an eye-opener for me."

Ying yawned and grumbled to herself, "This is my first time getting drunk."

As he saw her slowly enveloping into her slumber, he asked, "Oi! What's the zero-base? I get what that 'home-run' implied but what's the zero-base? How come I've never heard of it?"

"Zero-baseee..." she drawled out. "It means getting to know each other. Hehehe..."

With those words, she was knocked out. Once again!

Knowing that it was inappropriate for her to spend the night here, he went to take the phone and connected with the reception asking for the room information of Yan Ying. The answer he received was something he had expected, "Sorry, Sir... We can't disclose our guest's information. It's against our policy."

Even when he said he found her in the hallway, drunk. No one was really helping him out. For the first time, he thought this hotel's policies were too rigid. He needed someone's help. Someone who could get some answers. Thinking about his uncle, he dialed his number and asked him for help.

Within 30 minutes, he received a call from the reception, "Sir, my apologies for disturbing you but we don't have any guest named Yan Ying in our system."

The receptionist was quiet for a minute before replying, "I can't give you a definite answer for that."

He rubbed his forehead as he added, "I found her on my floor. Maybe you can inquire with other guests on the same floor?"

"Sir," the other side sounded really nervous. "It's really inappropriate time for this."

Han Bohai also realized that he was making it difficult for her. So, he didn't press it and hung up. While he was pacing in exasperation, his voice woke up Ying who had been completely knocked out.

When her eyes opened, she could only see his back as he talked over the phone. Her eyes wandered around and not recognizing the place where she was, she was immediately in an alert mode.

Han Bohai noticed her movement and started, "You're awake? Thank goodness I brought you to my room or else I don't know what you'd do... Argh!"

Before he could even continue, Ying's body moved faster than her mind as she tackled him and twisted his arm in a painful way.

"What is this place? How dare you try to play games with me?"

He slapped her hand that was on his shoulder and shouted, "Let go first! I was only trying to help!"

Ying let him go as he kept groaning in pain. He was completely defenseless against her because he didn't expect her to attack him suddenly. Where did that cute fool go? When did she turn into a violent fool?

Seeing her face, he asked, "Are you sober now?"

Ying squinted her eyes at him before walking away without any reply. Her foot hit the table and she kept mumbling, "Sorry, I didn't see you there. I'm sorry!" Only then Han Bohai realized that she was still drunk. But how come she forgot him so soon? And even attacked him for no reason.

He was still kneeling on the floor, holding his shoulder that had a crushing pain. His forehead was sweating because of the pain and yet, he ran off behind her to see where did she go. But poor him, couldn't even find her shadow outside.

How could he? Ying had just stepped out of his room and entered Cali's room with the keycard she had in her pocket. And dropped down on the bed like Cali had left her last night. No one could even tell that she had an adventurous last 2 hours rushing around.

*End of Flashback*

However, that adventure of hers was the reason that Han Bohai's original shooting schedule was messed up and he had to recuperate in the city. But he knew staying in the same city would eventually bring him before this girl and he was over the moon when it happened.

Honestly speaking, his initial interest in her was only because of how her emotional breakdown resembled Chen Xiu. Later, she injured him and he was intrigued. Much later, in the mall, when she repeated the action of wantonly feeling his body up, he couldn't help feeling himself drawing close to her.

Although she had no recollection of that night, it was obvious that there was no disparity between her drunk self or real self. The only thing was that the real self was too good at not letting herself act willfully. And since she wished to start from the 'zero-base' how could he say no?
