Chapter 43 - 42. The annoying machine

After we came back to hotel room I crashed myself on the bed. It wasn't as comfortable as my bed but I had no other option too. I guess I was much more tired than I thought so I fell asleep as soon as I layed on bed. I texted Xia Chun to wake me up for dinner as I will be sleeping. He told he will but I set two alarm as backup and slept.

My phone rang as I set alarm. As expected Xia Chun didn't call me but I waited for half an hour and wanted to check if he will call or not.

But he didn't. So I put my phone on silent mode before I opened the door to check on Xia Chun and aunt as I already had doubt on them .

As soon as I opened the door of my room alarm started ringing. Initially I was scared to listen to the alarm so I closed my door as an involuntary action and surprisingly the alarm went off . Then I realised that it rag due to opening and closing of the door.

I opened my door again to check and found that something was hung on the doorknob and was making the noise. Almost everyone came out of their room due to the annoying noise but I couldn't see Xia Chun or aunt.

I wanted to kick their ass and throw them out of the hotel whoever put it on my doorknob. The guest stared at me with their annoying eyes for not putting off the alarm. So I took the machine off the doorknob and it stopped making sounds. I apologised everyone for disturbing them .

Meanwhile Xia Chun came out of his room with his boxers and a vest which showed his perfect body and packs. His hairs were messy like he woke up from sleep. He was still rubbing his eyes and yearned once as if he wanted to show that he was asleep and just woke up. But I was the master of masters in case of acting as if I just woke up so I immediately understood that he just wanted to show that he was asleep. I decided r o play along with him and went to him after I apologised everyone. They also went back to their rooms.

Me : " Were you also asleep?"

Xia Chun : " Ohh yes Maria."

Me : " Thanks God I put alarm or else I would have to starve myself for tonight . And if I sleep without dinner then I am shure I will wake up at midnight due to hunger. "

I chuckled while saying those words to him . He smiled at me apologetically.

Xia Chun: " I am sorry for not calling on time as well as for ....."

He pointed towards the alarm machine which I took off from my door. I looked at him in realisation.

Me : " It's fine but why did you put this annoying thing on my door."

Xia Chun: " For your safety. "

I narrowed my eyes for him to explain further .

Xia Chun : " Seems like you are not aware of the incidents of hotels in China. It's really very easy for anyone with a average knowledge of locks and systems to open the door of this hotel but noone can put off the alarm. And even if they do by that time the person in the room will be awake by then. So I bought this for both of us. I forgot to give you before so I put it outside of the door. Please take it and put it on your door when you sleep. It's kind of dangerous for women specially to stay in hotel alone in room."

Honestly I was kind of surprised to listen to his words. I felt happy that he thought about my safety.

Me : " Oh... thanks for caring about my safety."

I smiled at him and he returned my smile with his sweet and beautiful smile.

Me : " Well....I am kind of bored in my room alone so can I stay in your room for sometime if you don't mind."

His face become hard from soft as he heard my words but immediately changed his expression within a fraction of second but it didn't go unnoticed by me. I was surprised by his expression as he allowed me to enter his room during day and now he was hesitating to let me enter instead he was trying to make me leave by keeping the conversation short. As I wanted to push him more he came up with as excuse of dinner.

Xia Chun : " Maria actually its dinner time already so please wait here and I will join you after I wear a t-shirt. "

I didn't push him more as it will create suspicion so I agreed immediately with a fake joyous smile. And he returned my smile before closing the door .

After he closed his door I went to the nearby balcony which was just in front of Xia Chun's room and looked at the view outside. I could see aunty was talking to someone down there and preparing tables for dinner with one of her helper. She walked in a hurry and arranged everything.

But my focus was on the one who was helping her in preparing the table. She was not the one whom I saw during lunch time. But I felt him quite familiar. After giving it some thought I felt like I saw him in Miss Chao Chao's campus.

While I was deep into my thought Xia Chun tapped my shoulder and I shout out loud in shock.

He looked at me with confusion and asked , " Where were you? What were you thinking so deep that you didn't even listen when I called out your name . So I had to tap your shoulder. I am sorry if I startled you."

I gained my posture and replied him , " It's okay. Never mind. I was just enjoying the nature which I missed since long time. "

He nodded in understanding and told , " Okay ..... now let's grab our dinner before it gets cold."

I nodded and followed him to the garden where aunt was making arrangements for dinner.
