Qin Ruoying was slightly taken aback, blinked her eyes, and then let out a frustrated sigh, rubbing her forehead where Chu Ge had flicked it, and shook her head dejectedly.
"Sigh, it really seems impossible. Let alone you're a big CEO now, with so many things at the company you can't leave, even without that problem, if you really came back with me, my parents would definitely think I stole my sister's beau, and then who knows what kind of rebellious label they'll put on me and how they'd deal with me."
Chu Ge shrugged, smiled slightly, and said, "Isn't that just how it goes? Don't be so frustrated, you sisters can study these issues again when it's daylight. Anyway, when it comes to this, you're both stuck in the same boat, neither can run away, a united front would be wise."
Qin Ruoying sighed helplessly and then smiled playfully, "Yeah, that's the only way, I'll have a showdown with my sister tomorrow morning."
Chu Ge raised his hand and gave Qin Ruoying a high five, "Then I'll wish you both can think of a good solution, shall we sleep now?"
Chu Ge said with a laugh and then lay back in the bed, feeling rather good about having nothing to worry about.
However... apart from the relief, Chu Ge felt a slight sense of loss in his heart, having been doing something for a long time, and suddenly not having to do it anymore felt somewhat disorienting.
"Alright, sleep. I really drank quite a bit just now to get my sister drunk, and I do feel a little dizzy. Brother-in-law, you better be careful, I might just do something to you in a bit under the influence of alcohol."
Qin Ruoying laughed as she said this, also lay back on the bed. Chu Ge turned to look at Qin Ruoying with an amused and speechless face, wondering if it shouldn't be Qin Ruoying who should be worried about this issue, not him?
The two of them, just like how Chu Ge and Qin Ruojing normally were, kept a distance between them, chatted idly for a while, and unknowingly fell asleep.
Another night passed, and it was another morning.
Qin Ruojing opened her eyes in a daze, the feeling of a hangover really wasn't pleasant, she tapped her forehead and habitually glanced at where Chu Ge usually slept.
The bed was empty with only her in it.
Qin Ruojing didn't think much of it, assuming Chu Ge had gone to prepare breakfast, but when she leaned back against the headboard and saw her surroundings clearly, she suddenly froze.
This wasn't her bedroom, it was clearly the room Qin Ruoying had been staying in for some time.
"Huh? How did I end up here?"
Qin Ruojing muttered to herself, pinched her brow, and recalled events from last night, suddenly realizing a very serious problem.
She was here, then where was Qin Ruoying? Could it be... in her room?
Thinking this way, a buzzing sound went off in Qin Ruojing's head, and she quickly became fully awake, got off the bed, and rushed into her bedroom in a few quick strides.
With a "bang," she pushed open the bedroom door, and upon glancing inside, she saw Chu Ge and Qin Ruoying lying on her bed. However, after taking a closer look, her worries vanished and she felt relieved again.
Whew...
Qin Ruojing let out a long sigh of relief, seeing that Qin Ruoying was still wearing her nightgown and that Chu Ge looked quite composed, not to mention there was a distance between the two, she had every reason to believe that last night, Chu Ge had simply mistaken the drunken Qin Ruoying for her and just gone to sleep as they usually did.
As she let out a sigh of relief, Qin Ruojing saw Chu Ge open his eyes, she immediately felt playful, gave him a mischievous smile, and greeted him cheerfully.
"Brother-in-law, morning! What delicious breakfast are you planning to make for us sisters today?"
No matter the expression or tone, it was identical to Qin Ruoying's.
But, surprisingly for Qin Ruojing, Chu Ge didn't respond, he just looked at her with an amused smirk. Although she didn't know what it meant, she had an inexplicable bad premonition.
"Brother-in-law? I'm greeting you, why aren't you responding?" Knowing her sister sleeps deeply, Qin Ruojing decided to continue pretending to be Qin Ruoying and said another sentence.
Chu Ge scratched his head, gave Qin Ruojing a helpless smile, and raised a finger to make a "quiet" gesture.
Then, as Qin Ruojing watched with puzzled eyes, Chu Ge got out of bed, put on his clothes piece by piece, and walked out of the bedroom. As he passed by Qin Ruojing, he even patted her on the shoulder.
Turning to watch Chu Ge's back as he walked into the living room, Qin Ruojing's mind was filled with more questions. What was this guy up to? Could he really have something going on with my sister? Does he not want me to know?
For a moment, Qin Ruojing's delicate brows furrowed slightly, deciding to continue impersonating Qin Ruoying to see what Chu Ge intended to say when alone with her, to find out if there was really something fishy between him and her sister.
Following Chu Ge out of the bedroom, she watched him nonchalantly sitting on the couch, with a playful expression on his face as he watched her, which only made Qin Ruojing more nervous. But she still imitated her sister's usual demeanor, leaned over beside Chu Ge, and blinked at him.
"Brother-in-law? What's up?"
Chu Ge rubbed his forehead, amusedly looking at Qin Ruojing who was pretending to be her sister, thinking to himself how these two sisters were just too funny. The sister had just pretended to be the elder sister yesterday, and now early in the morning, the elder sister is pretending to be the younger one.
Tricking him, does it really give these sisters a sense of achievement?
But anyway, the task is over, and Chu Ge felt playful, deciding to tease Qin Ruojing a bit more, wearing his signature smile, he said with a smirk, "Still calling me brother-in-law?"
Chu Ge deliberately didn't finish the phrase, just to see how Qin Ruojing would react. Teasing me? Haha, buddy, I'm teasing you right back.
Hearing such a comment from Chu Ge, Qin Ruojing couldn't help but feel a jolt in his heart, and then anger bubbled up inside.
Seems like... I wasn't wrong about Chu Ge, this guy really has something going on with my sister!
However, to gather more information, Qin Ruojing held back his anger, didn't lash out immediately, and instead blinked his eyes, twisted his fingers, and said somewhat bashfully, "Isn't my sister at home? Of course, I have to call you brother-in-law."
Seeing Qin Ruojing like this, Chu Ge almost burst into laughter, but he held it back, crossing his legs on the sofa, and said with a laid-back manner, "No worries, she drank so much last night, she's sleeping soundly now, probably won't wake up for a while. You can call me whatever you want."
He was really curious to hear what interesting name Qin Ruojing might come up with.
"Chu Ge, oh Chu Ge, I trusted you so much, yet you could do something as vile as hitting on your sister-in-law? You're such a jerk! I basically welcomed a wolf into my house!"
Using a somewhat artistic phrase, Qin Ruojing was extremely furious, almost at the point where he wanted to sternly rebuke Chu Ge and kick him out the door immediately.
But to continue extracting words from Chu Ge, he kept suppressing his increasingly uncontrollable anger, deciding to keep playing along with Chu Ge for a while.
Meanwhile, he also wanted to find out whether it was Qin Ruoying who pursued Chu Ge first, or if it was Chu Ge who made the first move, and furthermore, how far they've secretly progressed.
Little did he know, Chu Ge was just playing a joke on him; he and Chu Ge's fake couple relationship had been completely exposed by his sister.
"Those old names, I don't feel like using them today. Today, I want to call you 'Jerkface', how about that, do you like it?"
Hearing Qin Ruojing say this, Chu Ge couldn't help but chuckle, he knew Qin Ruojing must be full of anger, and this "Jerkface" was clearly mocking him.
It's really amazing how Qin Ruojing came up with such a name, isn't this just too funny?
"This... how does it sound so much like an insult? Boss, what grudge do we have that you'd have to go this far?"
With a humorous shake of his head, Chu Ge decided not to tease Qin Ruojing any further. Seeing him like that, he was obviously on the verge of losing it; joking around has its limits too.
Chu Ge's playful demeanor finally pushed Qin Ruojing to the limit. He abruptly raised his hand, face cold, eyes narrowed, pointing at Chu Ge, he said: "So you do know I'm insulting you? You..."
Halfway through his sentence, Qin Ruojing suddenly froze, then furrowed his brows, and an odd expression spread across his frost-covered face.
"You... what did you just call me?"
Chu Ge gave Qin Ruojing a blank look, and said matter-of-factly, "I called you Boss, is there anything else I could call you? Qin Ruojing maybe?"
Qin Ruojing was even more dumbfounded, staring at Chu Ge in disbelief but couldn't say a word.
Chu Ge stood up from the sofa, gave Qin Ruojing a rather amused smile, and said, "Your imagination is really something. After all I've done to help you act out this whole charade, you suspected I had something going on with your sister, you really broke my heart."
With that, Chu Ge headed towards the bathroom, leaving Qin Ruojing staring at his back, filled with questions.
Chu Ge had walked a few steps when Qin Ruojing suddenly snapped back to reality, quickly catching up and firmly grabbing Chu Ge's arm.
Qin Ruojing stared into Chu Ge's eyes, lowered his voice, and with rapid speed, asked: "What do you mean by that? Did you see through it was me all along? So, you also know it's my sister in that bed?"
Chu Ge smiled and naturally nodded, "Mm-hmm, last night I fell for your sister's trick again..."
"What! You! Did you just say... again?"
Qin Ruojing exclaimed, his already big eyes widening further, almost shooting fire, and his right hand gripping Chu Ge's arm subconsciously tightened, his nails digging into Chu Ge's muscle.
"Could you please let me finish?"
"You... what else is there to say?" Qin Ruojing gritted his teeth, feeling dizzy.
Chu Ge rolled his eyes, shook his head helplessly, and said, "I said I fell for your sister's trick again, is your reaction really necessary?"
