The Devil's Sleeping Beauty Chapter 173 A bad sign

Nian Jiezhen sighed at this. "So, what's the matter? Why are you calling me?"
"The clothes... your clothes that I sent to the laundry are here."
"Oh… I'll pass by your place later then."
"Just give me your address. I will be going out later, so I'll just pass by your place instead."
"Is that so? I'll send it to you then."
"Okay. Well, that's all I have to say so… see you later?"
"Hn, yes, later."
After the call ended, Nian Jiezhen went back to the kitchen.
"Work?" Xia Meilin asked as she turned to her.
"No, it's a call from Xiao Xi. She'll be passing by here to drop something." Nian Jiezhen replied before she took her cup of hot chocolate and took a sip from it.
A mischievous glint appeared in Xia Meilin's eyes but as soon as it appeared, it disappeared.
Her instincts were telling her that it would just be a matter of time before the two would start falling for each other. When that happens, Xia Meilin can fully consider Nian Jiezhen as her friend!
She should probably lock herself inside a room when Ren Shiyuan arrives. She doesn't want to spoil the moment between them after all.
"I think you should move to my parents' place next week," said Nian Jiezhen.
Xia Meilin gave her a questioning look and seeing this, Nian Jiezhen continued, "I will start working next week. If we have a case to deal with, I won't be able to go home for a couple of days. You need someone to accompany you here."
Xia Meilin frowned at the idea of leaving her place. If she moved out, then she won't be able to monitor Nian Jiezhen and Ren Shiyuan's blooming relationship!
Her eyebrows knitted together. "I can handle myself here." It was obvious in her voice that she doesn't want to leave Nian Jiezhen's place. "My husband said that you have to take care of me, not your parents."

"I can't take care of you since I have a work to attend. I can't babysit you, so you need someone else to watch over you."
Babysit? Xia Meilin didn't like that word being used to her, how dare she treats her like a kid? Xia Meilin laughed grimly, before she said, "So? Is that my problem? You gave your words to my husband, so you should keep it well."
Nian Jiezhen's brow twitched in annoyance. Can't Xia Meilin listen to her even once? Why was she being so stubborn? Didn't they just promise Little Melon that they won't fight?
Nian Jiezhen was about to say something but she couldn't do so when the doorbell rang.
Ren Shiyuan is already here? That was fast. Xia Meilin thought. Oh well, she should probably leave so that she won't distract the two. "I'm tired. I'll go get some rest." She headed towards the guest room that Nian JIezhen prepared for her.
Xia Meilin walked, leaving Nian Jiezhen there.
Nian Jiezhen sighed heavily. It looks like she needs to properly talk this out with Xia Meilin. She really can't allow her to stay here without someone watching over her. It was her responsibility to watch over her and make sure that she'll do well; she promised Lu Yifeng. If she wasn't going to be around then the only choice was to let someone else babysit her... Her mother should do the job well.
When she heard the doorbell rang again, she walked towards the door.
It was snowing heavily outside, the cars that were parked on the side of the streets was instantly covered by it.
Ren Shiyuan was standing before her by the time she opened the door. His long hair was tied into a bun and as usual, he looked gorgeous, his face as smooth and soft looking like an egg. He was wearing a thick cashmere coat and under it was a white blouse that was inserted under his high waist black skirt that was four inches above his knees. He partnered his clothes with high heeled knee boots. A scarf was wrapped around his neck to keep his neck warm. He was holding a red umbrella to keep the snow from falling on him.

Seeing the tall beauty in front of her, Nian Jiezhen couldn't help but marvel at his sight.
Ren Shiyuan chuckled when he saw the way Nian Jiezhen was staring at her. He placed his hand on the doorpost and leaned towards her. The side of his lips curled up as he let out a sexy smirk. "If you continue on staring at me that way, I won't be able to stop myself from kissing you."
Because of Nian Jiezhen's words, Nian Jiezhen was able to snap back to reality. Her face instantly became red because of the closeness of their faces and her heart started beating faster!
By reflex, she took a step away from him, "W-What are you doing here?"
"Have you forgotten? I am here to give this back to you." He smiled at her as he showed her the paper bag that has her clothes in it. Seeing her act so cute made him want to tease her more! Maybe he should play around with her for a while?
Nian Jiezhen grabbed the paper bag from him in a blink of an eye. She hugged it close to her chest as if she was protecting it. "Tha… Thank you." She bowed at him before she was about to close the door. She honestly didn't want him to be close to her.
She recognized the familiar feelings that started to grow in her chest and that was definitely a bad sign!
