Chapter 1462
Ian seemed to have seen through her thoughts.
"It’s thest four digits of my cell phone number."
ine was rendered speechless.
‘This is a little awkward now"
She chuckled and helped him in the door.
"There’s no need to exin that."
He responded with a light hum.
"I’m not exining."
‘I’m just telling her the pin.
It doesn’t mean anything.
He stretched out his hand to turn on the chandelier, and the space lit up instantly.
The interior of the vi looked quite simple.
There were not as many bells and whistles as she imagined, and it did not look luxurious.
It looked simple, clean, and spacious.She helped him back to the bedroom, which looked even emptier.
There was only one king-sized bed, a wardrobe, a desk, a bookshelf, and no extra sundries 0 r other
items.She looked around.
"Your ce looks way too simple."
It did not look shabby.It was just that it was extremely simple.It seemed almost vacant and did not feel
like home at all.It was more like a temporary shelter.
"I live alone, so there’s no need to put so many things in the house."
His eyes shifted from side to side, andh e stopped for a few seconds before adding slowly, "I don’t
come here very often either."
He rarely returned home, mainly because it was located very far away, and it was inconvenient for him
toe home when he was on a mission.
ine understood his reasoning and did not ask any more questions.
"Since you’ve arrived home safely, I''ll go first."
As soon as she turned around, the person behind her asked indifferently, "Aren’t you going to stay here
for the night?"
ine was stunned, and her expression became more and more embarrassed.
"Although we''re engaged, this is really inappropriate for me to do so."
Ian rubbed his temples, lifted his eyelids, looked at her, andughed.
"Do I look like a yboy to you?"
She shook her head.
"Not really."
"Then what are you afraid of?"
ine was at a loss for words.
Ian exined with an unchanged expression, "You’re too far away from the Xavier mansion.It’s not safe
for you to drive home alone at night.You should stay here for the night, and I’ll send you back tomorrow
morning."
What he meant was that it was not safe for her to travel at night, and he was asking her to stay without
any ulterior motive.
ine was silent for a few seconds.
"Then where should I sleep?"
"You can sleep in the bedroom."
Before ine could react, Ian had already gotten up, taken off his suit, draped it on his forearm, and
stood at the door.
"I''ll sleep on the couch."
Her mind was racing.
"I''ll sleep on the couch."
‘How could I let the house owner sleep on the couch? I''ll just make do with what I have to survive the
night.
Ian turned to look at her and gave off a smile.
"Nah, it’s more convenient for you to sleep here."
He was a little tired because of all the alcohol, so he did not say much, went out, and closed the door
behind him.
ine watched as the door closed until she could no longer see his figure.
‘This is still a man’s house, and even though he’s my fiance, this still feels really weird.
‘But what he said is right.It’s convenient for me to sleep in the bedroom because there’s a private
bathroom"
ine hurriedly took a shower, got onto the bed, and took a nce at the door.
‘He should have fallen asleep, shouldn’t he?’ She pursed her lips and turned off themp.
Not long after sheid down and rolled over, shepletely lost her drowsiness.
She was upying someone else’s bed and letting him sleep on the couch.She just could not help but
feel a little sorry.

Thus, she turned on themp, dimmed it, went to the closet, and rummaged for the extra nkets and
pillows.
The light in the living room was not turned on, anda faint smell of alcohol permeated the cold air.
She followed the trail highlighted by the light that shone through the ajar bedroom door and walked
toward the couch.
The man on the couch rested his forearm on his forehead, his shirt’s buttons were unbuttoned down to
his chest, and he was asleep in a verynguid position, but he still looked well-mannered and decent.
His breaths were very light, and he did not snore.
If she had note closer to listen, she would have thought that he was not breathing.
ine carefully covered him with the nket to avoid waking him up and ced the pillow aside.
‘Perhaps he might need it when he wakes up in the middle of the night"
