Chapter 1417: Life-Saving Mishap (2)

Xiao Rou stayed by Zhou Qi’s side until very late, and only left for the other room after confirming Zhou Qi was not reacting at all.

She certainly didn’t mind spending the whole night with Zhou Qi, but it was somewhat inappropriate.

Xiao Rou didn’t rest for too long, waking up just after seven. She did a quick wash-up, tiptoed out of the room, checked on Zhou Qi one more time, and then slowly went downstairs.

Xiao Rou walked into the kitchen, remembering how everyone in the team had drunk yesterday, thinking they probably wouldn’t feel too great this morning.

After searching around the kitchen, she found some rice and greens, cooked a big pot of vegetable porridge, and noticed there were pre-bought buns and rolls, so she steamed a big pot of those too.

A little before eight, there was a noise on the stairs. Someone in SpongeBob pajamas, sleepy-eyed, came down holding a water glass. Seeing Xiao Rou, this person paused briefly, clearly not understanding why there was a girl in the team’s kitchen.

After being dumbfounded for a couple of seconds, he woke up and greeted Xiao Rou: “Hi, Xiao.”

This team was different from many other teams. Many professional players don’t have mornings, usually waking up at noon, but not them. Nine in the morning was their fixed training time.

If there were no unexpected situations, midnight was their fixed rest time.

This was all to consider everyone’s energy and stamina.

So, after eight, the team members gradually got up.

“Wow, what’s that? Smells great.”

Someone was still on the stairs. Smelling the scent from downstairs, they immediately ran down.

“Hey Sponge, what are you eating?”

Ah Wai came over and saw porridge and buns, shouting immediately: “What the heck, Sponge, you actually went out to buy breakfast?”

“What are you talking about? Xiao made it, there’s some in the pot, go serve yourself.”

Ah Wai went to grab a bowl without hesitation, while Xiao Rou went to Zhou Qi’s room. She wasn’t going to wake him up, just to have a look.

Opening the door, she saw Zhou Qi with his upper body bare, just coming out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist, about to fall off.

Xiao Rou was so startled she immediately covered her eyes and turned around: “You, you, you… Why aren’t you wearing anything?”

Zhou Qi was momentarily stunned too; the team was all guys, rarely anyone locking the door when sleeping, and he had woken up feeling sticky and uncomfortable, so he took a shower. Just as he came out, he bumped into Xiao Rou coming in.

Even Zhou Qi was startled, hurriedly grabbed some clothes from the wardrobe and put them on, coughing awkwardly: “What are you doing here?”

Xiao Rou cautiously turned her head, saw Zhou Qi already dressed, and finally let out a sigh of relief. Her little face was very red, totally not daring to look at Zhou Qi’s face: “I… I… you drank too much, An Rui called me over.”

Xiao Rou stuttered, her head almost buried in the ground.

But Zhou Qi frowned, drank too much?

When did he drink too much?

Returning to the team last night, someone opened a few bottles of beer, and after that… after that…

Zhou Qi realized he seemed not to remember what happened afterward.

He only remembered someone handing him a cup, he drank it all in one gulp, and after that… Zhou Qi had no recollection at all.

He drank too much?

This was impossible; Zhou Qi clearly remembered he only drank one cup, how could he be down after one cup? Especially since it was beer!
