Qin Ruojing rolled her eyes at Chu Ge, "Wash your head, huh? I'll just help you rinse with the showerhead, do you want it or not?"

Hearing Qin Ruojing say this, Chu Ge finally breathed a sigh of relief and resumed his smiling demeanor.

"That would be quite embarrassing."

Chu Ge said he was embarrassed, but his face showed no sign of it. He walked a few steps forward and stood right under the showerhead.

"Could you be a little more sincere when you say polite things next time?"

Qin Ruojing glanced at Chu Ge speechlessly and turned on the showerhead. A few fine streams of water sprayed out instantly.

"Tsss"

A few strands of water splashed on Qin Ruojing's leg. She inhaled sharply from the heat and her brow furrowed instinctively. When she saw more water hitting Chu Ge's feet, her brow furrowed even tighter.

"Doesn't it burn?" Qin Ruojing asked as she quickly turned off the showerhead.

"No, it feels pretty good."

"Are you sure you're okay?" Qin Ruojing asked again, uncertain.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Why would I lie to you?"

She tried adjusting the water temperature, but there seemed to be an issue with the water heater. No matter how she adjusted it, she couldn't get it to a temperature that satisfied Qin Ruojing. As soon as it reached the hot water setting, the flow was very hot.

Seeing Qin Ruojing constantly adjusting the temperature, Chu Ge couldn't help but laugh, "Chairman, the temperature just now is fine. It's late, just splash it around a bit, and let's hurry up and sleep."

Seeing Chu Ge insist, Qin Ruojing tentatively splashed some water on his feet again. If Chu Ge so much as furrowed his brow, she would move the showerhead away.

Yet, Chu Ge truly didn't seem affected at all and even lifted his flip-flopped foot, playing with the water.

Seeing Chu Ge's satisfied expression, Qin Ruojing thought even more speechlessly, "What kind of constitution does Chu Ge have? A little splash burns me like crazy, yet he's fine?"

Unable to resist, Qin Ruojing felt a small sense of "revenge." With a little wicked glee, she thought to herself, "Doesn't burn, huh?" and continued to pour the rushing water over Chu Ge's feet for several minutes.

Seeing the increasingly satisfied expression on Chu Ge's face, Qin Ruojing gradually found it very dull and finally turned off the showerhead, walking out of the bathroom.

Sitting on the accompanying bed, Qin Ruojing kicked off her high heels and pulled out a wet wipe from her purse, gently wiping her plump feet.

It wasn't until then that Chu Ge noticed a band-aid on the sole of Qin Ruojing's right foot, with a bit of blood visible at the edge.

"Chairman, how did you hurt your foot?"

"Scraped it by accident, that's all. Hurry up and get some sleep. If my sister calls, I'll move over to your bed, I'll send her the picture she wants."

Qin Ruojing replied casually, not wanting Chu Ge to know she hurt her foot for his sake. Some things are best left unspoken when done.

In this regard, Qin Ruojing and Chu Ge could be considered the same type of person.

In everyone's life, it's often the case that those you think don't care about you have quietly done a lot for you. It's just that you may not know about it.

Looking down at her injured right foot, Qin Ruojing couldn't help but recall her first meeting with Chu Ge.

Back then, it was this very right foot that got sprained, and it was thanks to Chu Ge's massage that it quickly recovered. Later, when returning home in Kyoto, Chu Ge used this foot to distinguish between her and Qin Ruoying—who was the older sister and who was younger.

Every detail from that time was still vivid, and it was unexpected that her foot would get injured again so soon.

Unknowingly, Qin Ruojing became slightly entranced until a gentle snoring sound brought her back to reality.

Turning to look at Chu Ge, she saw he had evidently fallen asleep, without even covering himself with a blanket, with his feet still wet.

"This guy really is carefree, experiencing such a dangerous, thrilling fire, suffering such serious burns, yet can fall asleep instantly? What kind of person is this?"

Thinking back to that one time at her home in Kyoto, Qin Ruojing felt somewhat relieved. This guy could even quickly fall asleep when sharing the same bed with her, so in this situation, it seems less surprising.

Feeling a bit miffed, she glared at the sleeping Chu Ge and then tossed the used wet wipe towards the trash. She looked around casually and suddenly spotted a book on a cabinet.

Seeing the book, Qin Ruojing went over and picked it up. The cover read "The Best of Embarrassing Moments."

This book was probably brought over by someone visiting Chu Ge, right?

Sigh, I really am something. Chu Ge, being so energetic, must feel terribly bored being injured and hospitalized. I didn't even think about how to help him pass the time.

Thinking like this in her heart, Qin Ruojing couldn't help but feel a bit guilty, so she picked up this "Collection of Humorous Anecdotes".

After dinner, feeling quite stifled, I started smoking in the living room. My son, watching cartoons, warned me. Seeing I didn't react, he went to the kitchen to report to my wife.

Wife: "I know, but my hands are tied right now, why don't you take care of him for me!"

My son, imitating my wife's stance, one hand on his hip, snuffed out the cigarette in my hand, scolding, "Old Liu, are you kidding me? Smoking all day long, have you forgotten how your uncle died? Lung cancer! You're such a grown-up, yet you act as immaturely as your son..."

As he was speaking, my son seemed to remember something, stopped caring about me, and went back to the kitchen to complain to my wife, "Mom, how am I the one who's immature?"

After reading this anecdote, Qin Ruojing giggled, imagining the scene from the story, then moved her gaze down to start the second one.

One day, I went to an internet café and saw several police officers standing by the counter, so I headed to the second floor. I saw a student in a school uniform surfing the net; I told him there were police downstairs. He rudely retorted, "None of your damn business!"

And then, he got taken away by the police!

Next anecdote.

I asked a friend, "Hey Xiao Li, how did you meet your girlfriend? Can you tell me?"

My friend Xiao Li lit a cigarette and said, "Here's how it happened! At the time, I went to a temple to pray, knelt before the Bodhisattva, and kowtowed thrice loudly! Shouted out: Bodhisattva, grant me a girlfriend! Just then, a beautiful woman walked up to me! She pointed to a sign in the corner forbidding loud noises, and that's how we started talking!"

After hearing this! The corners of my mouth twitched as I looked at Xiao Li with deep eyes and silently lit a cigarette: "Xiao Li, tell me, where did you pray to that Bodhisattva...?"

After reading this anecdote, Qin Ruojing rolled her eyes dramatically, thinking this is just too far-fetched, it hardly sounds like something that really happened, must have been written by some storyteller, right?

Shaking her head in disbelief, Qin Ruojing moved on to the next anecdote.

One day, I went out driving and got stuck in traffic on the highway. Suddenly I saw a guy in the vineyard on the roadside stealing grapes. At that moment, I thought, what kind of person is this? So uncivilized!

I watched for a while and saw he was stealing zealously, it did sway me. After hesitating for a bit, looking at those beautiful grapes, I got more and more tempted.

Forget it, whatever, I'll go too. As soon as I slipped into the vineyard, the guy actually asked me what I was doing. I burst out laughing, thinking, if you can steal grapes, why can't I?

So, I sniffed, and asked back what he was doing. The guy replied he was picking grapes! Oh boy, the way he answered was so matter-of-fact, I despised him even more.

He was so righteous, I couldn't back down either, so I replied: I'm picking grapes too! The guy got frustrated and said he's picking from his own land, and me?

That one sentence of his immediately embarrassed me, and after being stunned for a few seconds, I sheepishly said, "So, bro, how much are your grapes selling for?"

Qin Ruojing laughed again, finding this anecdote much more amusing than the previous one. Imagine the mental trauma that guy who thought others were stealing must have!

Next anecdote.

When I was little, my buddies and I would sneak into the melon patch to steal watermelons. Suddenly, we heard a dog barking, and my buddies and I took off running.

Scared as I was, I suddenly remembered what the elders said: if you encounter a dog, just squat down and the dog will be scared. So being the last one running, I turned and squatted down. Hey? The dog actually stopped and started howling at me.

It howled, I got scared too, so I quickly continued running. The dog kept chasing me, I kept squatting down, and continued barking "woof woof" along with it. In the end, I was squatting on the ground crying and woofing with this vicious dog, it was so tragic until the melon farmer came over and finally ended this misery.

Qin Ruojing's eyelids twitched, scared of people squatting down? What kind of saying is that, she's never even heard of it before, maybe she should let Chu Ge try it someday?

Thinking this way, Qin Ruojing turned to the next page of the book.

I have a male coworker with a lot of body hair, hairy enough that his arms are covered in dark hair, that's the background.

One day, having a meal with him, I said: Can't you evolve properly? Look at all that hair, you must be a caveman!

He said: If I were a caveman, I'd be rich, why would I still be working? I'd just sit in a cage collecting money, make a fortune!

I rolled my eyes and told him: Come on, you won't see even a dime of that money.

Hearing me say this, he was immediately displeased, asking me what I meant by that, if not his, then whose money would it be?

I scratched my head and told him, have you ever seen a monkey trainer give the money to the monkeys?

And then, I got beaten up... Damn it, that guy's punches actually hurt!

At this point, Qin Ruojing found it very funny once again, giggling, thinking about how hairy someone has to be to get teased like this?

And also, that guy in the anecdote who teased the hairy coworker really had a loose tongue, talking about this and somehow ending up with monkey trainers?
