Chapter 839: Huo Yingcheng, Yu Bao’er (11)
Yu Bao’er was quite good-looking actually. At the very least, she was tall, leggy, and had everything a woman ought to have.
She did have the assets to be popular.
Her evening gown was bunched up, revealing a naked, smooth, and long leg outside. If her gown went up a bit more, she would have exposed herself.
Vexed by the sight, Huo Yingcheng pinched up the blanket and covered her up once more.
He smoked a cigarette while sitting on the edge of the bed, not knowing what to do.
At this hour, he couldn’t possibly send Yu Bao’er back.
If someone were to see this in the middle of the night, it would be all the harder for him to explain himself. Huo Yingcheng had already learned a painful lesson.
So where was he going to sleep tonight?
He still had matters to be busy with early tomorrow morning!
In the end, the frustrated Huo Yingcheng could only retrieve a blanket from the wardrobe and went to sleep on the sofa.
He could only count himself unlucky.

In the middle of the night, Yu Bao’er finally woke up with a headache.
She had more or less sobered up.
Sitting up in bed dazedly, Yu Bao’er sensed that something wasn’t quite right.
This… didn’t seem like her room…
Her room didn’t smell like this.
It was pitch dark around her, and Yu Bao’er could see nothing. She could only deduce based on her intuition, whether she was in her room or not.
She got flustered.
She wasn’t in her room. What the hell was going on?
Why was she here?
Yu Bao’er felt around in a panic, feeling her way to the bedside table and turned on the lights.
With a ‘pa’ sound, the lights turned on. The bright lights made Yu Bao’er subconsciously cover up her eyes.
It was only after her eyes had adjusted to the lighting, did Yu Bao’er remove her hands.
Now that she got a proper look, this was indeed not her room.
Although the interior decor was like what was commonly seen in the palace, there were visible traces of a man’s presence in this room.
Especially the cigarette box with English labels placed on the bedside table.
Usually, men were the ones who smoked!
Panic seized Yu Bao’er, who hurriedly got out of bed. Seeing that she was still wearing that light yellow evening gown, albeit a tad crumpled, and there didn’t seem to be anything unusual, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Seems like nothing had happened. Thank god.
Yu Bao’er saw that there were only her high heels beside the bed. With a headache, she simply landed her bare feet on the ground and gazed towards the bedroom door.
She walked over and opened it. As the lighting was dim, she found the lights and turned them on, and only then saw a man lying on the sofa. Startled by the sight, she said, “Commander Huo, why are you here?”
Huo Yingcheng, who was abruptly woken from a deep sleep, opened his eyes irritably.
As the lighting was too piercing, he blocked his eyes with his fingers. When he opened his eyes, he then saw Yu Bao’er standing there and staring at him with a dumbfounded look.
Huo Yingcheng said in a displeased tone, “You’re finally awake, huh?!”
Yu Bao’er was confused. “Why am I here? Where is this?”
“This is my room!”
Huo Yingcheng, who was in his pajamas, got up and shook his blanket as he spoke. “You’re pretty bold, huh. You even dare to drink such strong alcohol. Didn’t it occur to you to ask someone if it could be an alcoholic drink before you did so? You were even nearly…”
At this point, Huo Yingcheng halted. Yu Bao’er sensed something instantly. “Even nearly what?”
“Taken advantage of! If I hadn’t saved you, you would be crying your eyes out this very moment.”
