Chapter 309 - Drunk in honey

A lot happened in the trip, some hearts were connected, while some were just starting to learn what love was.

Jang Shin hopped on one leg as he carried his and Tang Xinyang\'s bag. A hand suddenly took the bags from him.

"Let me," Tang Xinyang said.

"Wait, that\'s my job. I am your but—"

"An injured butler. Don\'t fuss around. It\'s not even heavy," Tang Xinyang said as she walked ahead of him towards the living room.

Jang Shin watched Tang Xinyang with surprise. He could not really understand her anymore. Why was she so nice to him recently?

For some inexplicable reason that he could not clearly fathom, after the incident in the forest, he was no longer afraid of the \'nice\' and \'friendly\' Tang Xinyang. Well, he was still afraid of her due to the long-time tyrant impression she gave to him, but, there was something that changed, that which he could not describe.

Jang Shin did not like mull over the things he did not understand.

Sometime later, after doing some of his usual tasks in the mansion and excusing himself from heavy tasks that could worsen his injury, he bid goodbye to the Tang family and went home.

The first thing he did was to check on his friend.

He called a few times but Linfeng was not answering.

Finally, he gave up, went to the bathroom to take a bath, and then went off to sleep. In fact, he was planning to call Linfeng after the bath, but then his mind became too tired to remember. He immediately fell asleep the moment he hit the bed.

\'Ring. Ring.\'

A call disturbed his sleep.

A hand automatically reached out from the quilt to the ringing phone on the bedside. Jang Shin answered the call groggily. "Yes?"

"Jang Shin, it\'s me. I am in front of your house. Come out and pick me up," Linfeng\'s voice sounded from the phone.

"Huh?" His tired mind and exhausted body just wanted to sleep.

"I am in front of your house," Linfeng repeated. "If you don\'t let me in, I will have to sneak in."

Jang Shin finally recognized his best friend. He shot up straight from the bed.

"Linfeng! How are you here at this ungodly hour? Darn, I slept!" Checking the time was already past two a.m., Jang Shin hurriedly left the room and hopped awkwardly towards the Jang family\'s gate.

Linfeng had a new change of clothes on. Seeing his trotting friend with a messy bed hair, he waved at him and smiled.

"..." Was he asleep yet? His cold and proud friend actually \'waved\' and \'smiled\' at him? He must have probably imagined it.

Linfeng noticed his weird posture. "What happened to you?"

Jang Shin felt a bit glad that his friend showed concern to him. "I got injured while hiking in the small sloping forest with Xinyang. It\'s a sprain, but the doctor said it should heal soon as long as taken cared for properly."

Linfeng nodded. "Then rest well for a couple of days. Men should not be so coquettish at this tiny stuff."

"…" Well, he was Linfeng after all.

Jang Shin led Linfeng into the mansion and brought him to the guest room which Linfeng usually frequented when they were younger. As they were childhood friends, there had been times when Linfeng would drop by and spend the night in the Jang Mansion. Likewise, Jang Shin also had a room especially sorted for him in the Zhou Mansion.

"How come you are late?" Jang Shin asked he turned the lights on in the guest room.

A warm light shone in Linfeng\'s eyes, showing his pleasant mood. A rare playful smile appeared on his lips.

"Just… because~" Linfeng answered in a light tone, the last syllable even extended, as if he was bragging about something. He still have that foolish smile on his lips.

(☉x☉)!

"…" Jang Shin broke into goosebumps and he rubbed at his ears. How come, his ears seemed to hear wrongly? His friend did not usually answer like that.

He was confused as he looked at his friend who seemed to be quite happy at this moment. What happened to the accident earlier? And here he was feeling worried about this guy all evening!

Well, at least the incident earlier did not seem to affect Linfeng so much. He was worried that his overly responsible and arrogant friend would be hit by this blow strongly and blame himself, basing from Linfeng\'s tone of voice when he called Jang Shin earlier. Fortunately, Linfeng seemed to have rescued his Young Miss perfectly.

"I know you are not welcome in the Xiong Mansion or even in the Zhou mansion at this time," he continued to nag. "But why can\'t you check in to a hotel instead? If it was still like before, you can definitely stay over freely here. But with your situation now…" He shook his head. "A lot of butlers here are friends with your Zhou family, what if they saw you? The blabbermouths would tattle that you are in the capital. Master Xiong may hear it, you know!" Jang Shin went on as he looked for clothes to lend Linfeng.

"Let them be~" Linfeng continued to answer in a carefree voice. He even chuckled. The extended tailing tone that brings out goosebumps was still there.

Jang Shin paused and stared at the young man whose mind seemed to have floated away. Did this guy even listen?

Seriously, what the f%$#king horror was this?! Was he possessed or something?!

Jang Shin rubbed the chicken skin popping out on his arms. He went to rub his eyes as he felt that he was probably hallucinating again, and also cleaned his ears in the process. Was he dreaming after all? Being woken up after such a deep sleep might make people hear or see wrongly.

Jang Shin finally gave up speaking reason with this guy and went straight to serious matters as he sat on the bed with a somber face, "By the way, I received reports about those two rogues. They are sent by Xiong De."

Linfeng\'s smile slowly vanished. The light in his eyes faded to a serious and cold glare.
