Chapter 105: A Temporary Shelter

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

On the door, there was a note that Xia Xin peeled off and read aloud, “Woman, if you dare to bully Wan Wan again, we won’t scare you!”

After reading it, Xia Xin raised the note to show it to Jing MO and laughed, “Haha, look, she even made a spelling mistake. It should be spare, not scare.”

Jing MO furrowed his brows, wondering how Xia Xin could still find that amusing at a time like this.

Xia Xin tossed the note into the trash bag and stared at the red paint on her door, feeling anxious. She suddenly thought of Layle, who was still alone at home and quickly took out her keys, calling out Layle’s name as she opened the door.

Sure enough, when Xia Xin entered, she found Layle cowering in a corner, trembling. She hurriedly rushed over to pick up Layle, comforting it and telling it not to be afraid.

‘Those people must have come to bang on the door and caused a scene; otherwise, Layle wouldn’t be so scared.’ Xia Xin thought.

Xia Xin became furious and said, “These people are too audacious! Aren’t they afraid of the police holding them accountable?”

Xia Xin took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. She then turned to Jing

MO and said, “It’s okay; I’ve safely returned home. You should go back now.”

Jing MO looked at Xia Xin with concern. He had rushed over as fast as he could, hoping to prevent such a situation, but he had arrived a step too late. He gazed at Xia Xin, who was trying to feign composure, and said, “Xia Xin, you don’t need to act tough in front of me. If you’re scared, just say it. I’m here.”

Xia Xin still kept her head down and remained silent. The two of them stood at the doorway, and no one broke the silence.

After a while, Xia Xin sighed and said, “I’m just angry. I tried to help Wu Jia, and she turned around and accused me. What’s more frustrating is that my misplaced sympathy got me into trouble!”

Jing MO gently placed his hand on Xia Xin’s shoulder. The warmth of his hand transferred to her, bringing her a sense of reassurance. He said, “Your place is definitely not safe in this condition. I have a spare room in my house. Pack your things and come stay at my place.”

‘These fans are becoming increasingly crazy, and now that they knew Xia Xin’s home address, who knew if they would come back to cause trouble in the middle of the night? It was clear that she couldn’t stay here.’ Jing MO thought.

Xia Xin had no choice but to find a temporary place to stay and return when the situation had calmed down. The only thing she could be grateful for now was that when she had offered to help Zhao Nan move, Zhao Nan had been delayed due to other matters and hadn’t moved in yet. Otherwise, Zhao Nan would have been dragged into this trouble as well.

Xia Xin packed her things and called Zhao Nan to inform her of the current situation, also letting her know that she didn’t need to come over that evening.

Although Zhao Nan was worried, her place had a complicated environment that would be even more detrimental to Xia Xin. All she could do was instruct Xia Xin to take good care of herself.

After packing a few changes of clothes and essential toiletries, Xia Xin, with Layle, left with Jing Mo.

Upon returning to Jing Mot s place, Xia Xin was greeted by a joyous Bobo, who rushed over and greeted her enthusiastically. Bobo’s excitement was so great that Xia Xin would have been tackled to the ground if Jing MO hadn’t intervened in time.

Bobo happily bounced around, saying, “Xia Xin, did you come to see me? Quick, pet me on the head!”

Bobo’s enthusiasm managed to lighten Xia Xin’s mood somewhat. She rubbed Bobo’s head affectionately and asked, “Of course, I came to see you. Have you been eating well these days?”

Jing MO stood behind them, watching their interaction with a puzzled expression. He couldn’t help but wonder how Xia Xin could tame Bobo, who was usually quite arrogant.

Jing MO placed a pair of new slippers by Xia Xin’s feet and said, “I’ll go tidy up the room. You two can play for now. If you are hungry, there’s food in the fridge. Just heat it up in the microwave.”

Xia Xin and Jing MO were quite familiar with each other. In the past, young Xia Xin had visited Jing Mo t s house for meals. At that time, Jing MO lived alone, and his years of living alone had turned him into a skilled cook. The food in his fridge was all pre-prepared, frozen meals.

Stirring the green beans and rice together, Xia Xin heated it in the microwave. She leaned against the door with her bowl, calling out to Jing MO, who was making the bed, “It’s been so many years since I’ve had your cooking. You’re even better than my mom. I’ll take advantage of staying at your place today and eat a bit more.”

Jing MO had just made the bed with a gray bed sheet. Even the casual clothes he was wearing were a cool shade of black and gray. He replied, “I only have bed sheets and covers in these colors. You can use them for now. I’ll buy a pink set tomorrow.”

Xia Xin laughed, “I’m all grown up; I don’t need pink bed sheets anymore..”
