“If you don’t mind, you could make do for the night by wearing my sweater,” Ren suggested.
Ruka considered the situation and figured that she had no choice right now, so she had to wear his clothes. Actually, she could have requested for him to send his bodyguards to get her a change of clothing but she didn’t like to be too much of a bother so she didn’t end up making that request.
“Okay. Hand me one of your white shirts then.” Ruka thought, Well, his shirt is the only option I have. She realized that his shirt would be too long and oversized for her so she had no choice but to wear it as a dress.
She trailed after Ren and went upstairs. He went into the walk-in closet, and in no time, he came out with a clean white shirt and handed it to her while giving her directions to the washroom. Ruka hastily scrambled off in that direction after that.
Inside the washroom, she impatiently stripped herself, and she kept her underwear and jeans aside. She stood. under the shower unit and instantly felt refreshed. She was covered in water droplets as she shut her eyes to enjoy the warm moment. All of a sudden, she suddenly recalled the moment in the car from before and how she had taken advantage of Ren.
Her expression turned gloomy as she covered her face. That was so embarrassing. How could I possibly have kissed him? And it was on the lips too!
Although Ruka had barely met him since she knew him, he was Scarlet’s younger brother after all, so he was considered to be one of her elders. Even if it was just a mere term of address, his position as her elder remained.
She was close to tears by then, and she realized that alcohol indeed had a bad influence on one. She had gotten into huge trouble due to the alcohol. At that point, she was determined to abstain from alcohol from then on.
At that moment, she had completely forgotten about the fact that Jethro had gotten back together with his ex girlfriend. She was now quite troubled by the fact that she had kissed Ren.
Just then, Ruka was fully alert from her drunken stupor and the crush she harbored had also ended on a sad note. There would not be any future for them, so she knew that she should tame her heart and focus on work.
Ruka subsequently washed her hair, and. as she applied some shower gel on herself, she couldn’t contain her shyness. All of these items that I’ve just used are items that Ren usually uses!
Once she got out of the shower cubicle and stood on the mat, she blushed red as she realized that there was only one single towel there and it belonged to him.
She was dripping wet from head to toe, so she couldn’t possibly avoid using the towel. Ultimately, she ended up using it. Finally, she put on her underwear and grabbed his shirt to put it on before buttoning it up properly.
The material of the shirt was silky-soft and of top quality. The material draped off her skin, and it was perfectly ironed without a single crease. It was no wonder Ren had great taste in his outfits. The shirt looked quite sexy and elegant.
She grabbed the hair dryer by the side and blow-dried her hair carefully as she lamented to herself, Am I actually the first female to enter his house? Could it be that Victoria has never been to his house? But then they’re quite close and they seem to have dated each other before.
After quite some time, Ruka finally dried her hair, and she glanced at herself in the: mirror. Although she was about to turn twenty-four, the white shirt she had on made her appear much younger than her age. She felt quite shy about being in his shirt.
Ruka came out of the washroom, and she had already hand-washed her stained clothes, but she wanted to look for the washing machine to run the clothes. through the machine one more time before using the dryer. She hoped that they would be ready for her by tomorrow morning.
“Are you done showering?” Behind her, a man’s low voice rang out.
Ruka quickly turned around and, under the dim lights, he had one hand tucked into the pocket of his trousers as he stood behind her in a straight and elegant posture.
“Yup! I’m done showering. Where is your washing machine? I would like to wash my clothes again using the machine.”
“It’s in the left-most room on the first floor,” he replied.
“Okay.” Ruka rushed off downstairs with her clothes after saying that, and the man behind her curved his lips into a smile. He felt that she looked quite adorable dressed in his shirt. Ruka switched on the washing machine power button and selected the dryer mode as well before walking out to the living room.
Although it was snowy outside, the temperature inside the room was warm, and at that moment, there were sounds of footsteps coming from the second floor. Ruka lifted her head and saw Ren’s figure. He had just taken a shower too. He was dressed in a black sweater paired with a pair of trainers. His dark hair was not slicked-up like how it was in the daytime: but was currently tousled loosely on his forehead. He looked five years younger than his actual age.
Ruka’s heart thudded frantically, and she. couldn’t help recalling that kiss as her face flushed bright red.
Ren had a jacket draped on his wrist. As he stood in front of her, he handed it over to her. “Put this on if you feel cold.”
Ruka reached out to take the jacket, and she put it on subsequently. Ren then went to pour a glass of warm water to hand it to her.
“Thank you.” Ruka was sincerely grateful for his kind concern.
“Do you really like him that much?” Ren sat by the couch on the side and picked up a book casually before flipping through it.
Ruka held the mug as she recalled how she had sobbed in a drunken state and had even spouted nonsense to him in the car. Now that she had come back to her senses, she felt quite awkward and was so tempted to bury her head in the ground.
“I’ve caused a disturbance toward you tonight.” Ruka pursed her lips and sneaked a furtive look at his expression.
“In the future, no matter the trouble you encounter, you should never touch alcohol again.” The man lifted his head, and there was a commanding aura in his eyes.
At that moment, a shudder ran through her and she quickly nodded earnestly. “Sure, I promise you that I won’t ever drink alcohol at random again.”
“You’re worth someone much better.” There was a complicated look in Ren’s eyes as he looked at her. Ruka was at her least confident moment tonight and her unrequited love had ended up on a sad note, so evidently, she didn’t think that she was worthy of being loved.
She puffed her cheeks and spoke. with a self-defeated tone, “It’s fine even if no one loves me. I can provide myself with sufficient self-love and that’s enough for me.”
“Who told you that no one loves you?” He narrowed his eyes. Ruka lifted her head and asked him a question, “Who is it that loves me?”
“I love you very much.” His voice was slightly hoarse and there was a rarely seen tender expression on his cold face.
At that moment, Ruka’s mind turned blank. Did Mr. Ren misunderstand something? I mean romantic love between opposite genders, not the type of love from an elder! For a moment there, Ruka was in a slight dilemma, and she wondered if she needed to explain things to him.
However, Ruka was completely oblivious to the fact that the love he meant had nothing to do with the love of an elder. He meant romantic love between a man and a woman.
“Thanks for loving me.” Ruka smiled politely.
“Do you love me?” He asked her in return. Evidently, he wanted an answer from her. regarding this topic of love.
Ruka responded practically instantly without any hesitation, ‘Of course I do! Everyone loves you! Do you know that there are many girls out there infatuated with you to the point of extreme! They would give anything at all to marry you!” Ruka said this with an expression full of admiration..
“Do you wish to marry me too?” He focused on her final sentence and questioned her once again.
“I would of course wish to….” Before she could finish her words, she placed a hand over her mouth hastily. Her pretty eyes widened and she shook her head hard before removing her hand over her mouth as she apologized, ‘I’m sorry, Mr. Ren. I nearly said the wrong thing. I definitely would not be able to marry you.”
At that point, Ren’s thin lips were tightly pursed and his brows were tightly furrowed. He suddenly increased his force as he turned the page of the book, and he nearly ripped the paper from the book.
Ruka was startled and looked at the book in his hand as she wondered why he suddenly used so much force to flip the page.
“Go and get some rest.” He kept his eyes on the book while voicing out, “Take the third bedroom on the left of the second floor.”
