209: Chapter 208 Can I Take You as My Master?
“Why did you say I’m in your room?” Song Yun squinted his eyes and sneezed before speaking.
“Can’t you remember anything that happened last night?”
“What happened last night?” Li Shishi asked with wide eyes.
“You fell asleep on the beach last night, and I kindly carried you back, but then you wouldn’t let go.
As soon as I laid you down, you started to look like you were waking up.
I waited until midnight for you to let go but you never did, and eventually, I fell asleep without realizing it.” Song Yun stood up, took a cigarette out of his pocket, and lit it.
“This…” So that’s what happened.
Li Shishi felt a bit embarrassed.
At home, she was used to sleeping with a big bear in her arms, a habit she’d had since childhood.
She couldn’t sleep without something to hold, and last night she must have been so drowsy that she mistook Song Yun for her big bear and held onto him all night.
“Alright, let’s move past this incident.” Li Shishi pouted, feigning displeasure.
“Who knows how much advantage you took of me last night.”
“Miss, me take advantage of you?
I was lucky not to fall asleep before you,” Song Yun said irritably.
“Hurry up and get up.
Today we’re going to buy some local products or souvenirs.
We’re planning to go home tomorrow.”
“Why are we going back so soon?
Can’t we stay a few more days?” Li Shishi exclaimed in surprise.
“Xuezi has already found her way here; there’s no need for us to stay longer.
It’s better to go back to Sunan City sooner.
Besides, there have been more and more big events happening in Sunan lately.
It’s best to get back and get ready,” Song Yun said as he dressed.
“Aren’t you getting up?”
“Why aren’t you going out?” Li Shishi pointed to the door and yelled.
Song Yun, a bit embarrassed, touched his nose, took his cigarette, and left the room.
When Li Shishi came out after changing her clothes, the two of them woke up Qingluan and Xiao Qing.
Song Yun, Qingluan, and Xiao Qing were actually okay; after all, they were martial artists and only needed to wake up to slowly regain their energy.
But Li Shishi couldn’t handle it well and kept sneezing along the way.
When the four of them reached the first floor, they didn’t feel like going out to eat, so they grabbed something from the hotel’s buffet breakfast and started chowing down.
As they were finishing up, they saw Shen Yan with his two female companions coming down.
Shen Yan greeted Song Yun with a smile and sat next to him, saying, “Where are you planning to go today?
I heard the hot springs in HN are nice.
Want to join us?”
“Forget it.
We’ve already booked our flight for tomorrow afternoon.
If nothing goes wrong, we’ll be heading back tomorrow,” Song Yun said as he swallowed the last fried egg on his plate.
“What?
Why are you heading back so early?” Shen Yan asked perplexedly.
“I was hoping to go to the hot springs with you.
Do you know I found a hot spring hotel where we could relax and then have a wonderful story unfold with the ladies?
How romantic!”
“I don’t see romance; all I see is frivolity,” Song Yun murmured.
“To be honest, I came on this trip to avoid trouble, but now that the source of trouble has come to me, I can’t just sit here and wait for doom, can I?”
“Are you talking about that RB woman last night?” Shen Yan asked in a low voice.
“I knew she was trouble the moment I saw her, but I didn’t expect you would actually get involved with her.
You’re really doing our country proud.”
“I’d rather give you that chance to shine,” Song Yun said wryly as he finished his orange juice.
“So you’re really not going to stay a couple more days?” Shen Yan asked, taking a plate from Xiao Qin.
“There are so many sights here we haven’t seen; why let one person ruin your fun?
I don’t believe she could really eat you up.”
“She can’t eat me, but I’m afraid she might impulsively decide to follow me home.
As you know, I have so many beauties with me already; I can’t bring another one home, right?
It’s her choice to forgive me, but I can’t be so heartless,” Song Yun said as he lit an after-meal cigarette.
“Can I become your disciple?” Shen Yan asked, his eyes gleaming.
“I thought having two top beauties made me a ladies’ man, but you outdid me with three, plus another one chasing you.
You’re defying the heavens!
No, no, you absolutely have to teach me your ways with women.”
“Can I say it’s because I’m so handsome that I attract romantic trouble?” Song Yun tossed his hair and said suavely.
“Enough chit-chat.
We’re going to buy some stuff and then head back.”
“Alright then, leave me your phone number so you can host me properly when I visit Sunan City,” Shen Yan said, tossing his phone to Song Yun.
After Song Yun gave Shen Yan his phone number, he left the hotel with the three women, planning to stroll around and buy some souvenirs.
Actually, what’s most famous about seaside cities like HN are the distinctive snacks and seafood freshly caught from the sea.
After wandering for a while without finding any suitable souvenirs, Song Yun resigned himself to buying some dried seafood and some beautiful shells.
Song Yun wanted to curse when he thought about those shells.
A pair of nautilus shells cost him five hundred yuan from a greedy merchant who wouldn’t budge on the price.
As if that wasn’t enough, the tourists behind him kept urging him, saying if he couldn’t afford it, he should let them have it.
Damn it.
Song Yun paid just to ensure the last two pairs of nautilus were his.
You want them too?
Beat it!
If they hadn’t nagged from behind, maybe he wouldn’t have bothered, but they pushed him so far, he couldn’t not push back.
Time, like money, seems abundant until you start spending it.
The last day passed without notice.
Looking back, his dead arrival in HN meant that besides eating seafood and swimming every day, he didn’t do much else.
Seeing the three women’s reluctance to leave, Song Yun promised them that when they had the time, they would come back and play until they were satisfied.
Pleased by Song Yun’s promise, the three women burst into smiles.
After all, they had only stayed in this rush for three days, and there were many things they hadn’t done yet, like HN’s hot springs and its historic sites.
The next morning, early, Song Yun packed his suitcase.
Looking at it, he laughed; apart from some dried squid and those two pairs of nautilus shells as decorations, there wasn’t much else.
After finishing packing, he went to Xiao Qing’s room to have a look.
Her suitcase was just like Song Yun’s, except she bought all shells as souvenirs and gifts—shells of all colors and shapes, opening Song Yun’s eyes to a feast of marvels.
