Chapter 897 Get Some Exercise
"Jane, are you really planning to live here?" Zephyr asked, changing the subject.
Jane took a sip of water. "It's normal for a girlfriend to live at her boyfriend's place. Are you not happy about it?"
Zephyr's eyes flickered. He was happy, but he was worried about his self-control.
"No, it's fine. I'll prepare a room for you."
As he turned away, Jane raised an eyebrow and teased, "Don't bother. I can sleep in the master bedroom with you."
Zephyr paused, turned to look at Jane, and gritted his teeth.
"Officer Harvey, you are playing with fire. Be careful, you might get in trouble."
He was perfectly functional.
Be careful, he might actually sleep with her and then be an irresponsible douchebag!
Seeing Zephyr's hurried steps, Jane laughed.
Zephyr really was a gentleman.
She had practically thrown herself at him, yet he didn't take advantage of the situation.
Jane subconsciously glanced at herself.
Or maybe, she really wasn't attractive to Zephyr?
Even dressed like this, she couldn't pique Zephyr's interest?
No, Zephyr was clearly moved before dinner.
So it wasn't that she lacked charm. It was simply that Zephyr was a true gentleman.
Jane smiled, put down her glass, and went to the guest room.
In the guest room, Zephyr took out a new set of bedding and started making the bed.
His technique seemed quite practiced.
Jane raised an eyebrow and asked, "Zephyr, do you often have guests over?"
Zephyr didn't look up, just hummed in response.
"Who often stays here?" Jane was a bit curious.
Zephyr glanced at her and said deliberately, "A woman."
Jane looked at him but said nothing, helping him make the bed.
Seeing her indifferent, Zephyr couldn't help but ask.
"Why don't you ask me what kind of woman often stays here?"
Jane calmly made the bed. "No need to ask, she definitely wouldn't be an improper woman."
Zephyr looked at her. "You trust me that much?"
Jane replied, "Yeah, touched?"
Zephyr smiled and after a moment said, "It's my aunt who sometimes stays here for a day or two."
So that was how it was.
Jane had never heard Zephyr mention his mother, so she asked, "Your mother..."
"My mom passed away a couple of years ago due to illness," Zephyr said lightly.
Jane understood. "I'm sorry."
Zephyr said nothing more and continued making the bed.
Working together, they quickly finished.
"Alright, you must be exhausted. Get some rest," Zephyr said, ready to leave the guest room.
Jane glanced at the time. "Isn't it a bit early to rest now?"
Zephyr asked, "Then what do you want to do?"
Jane replied, "Exercise!"
She said exercise!
Zephyr couldn't help but think of some bedroom activities, his Adam's apple bobbing.
"Jane, just because I agreed to let you stay here doesn't mean we can have sex. That would be irresponsible to both you and me."
Jane looked at him and couldn't help but laugh.
"Zephyr, is your mind always in the gutter? I meant normal exercise. What were you thinking?"
Zephyr was speechless.
He thought his lifetime of wisdom was probably ruined by Jane.
He was usually very rational, but in front of her, he felt like an idiot.
"Take your time exercising. I'm going back to my room."
Zephyr hid his discomfort and turned to leave.
Behind him, Jane's teasing voice came. "Zephyr, let's exercise together."
It sounded innocent, but Zephyr felt Jane was deliberately provoking him.
He was a bit annoyed. "Jane, stop provoking me, I'm a man!"
Jane giggled. She couldn't help teasing him!
But in the end, she decided to restrain herself.
There was plenty of time; their interactions were quite interesting.
Zephyr returned to his room, sat on the edge of the bed, and sighed.
Thinking of Jane just a wall away, he chuckled and shook his head.
This was the start of a new life.
He felt a bit of anticipation.
Just then, his phone rang.
He glanced at it; it was his Aunt Delilah Myers calling.
Zephyr's expression softened as he answered the call.
"Aunt Delilah."
"Zephyr, can you come visit me next weekend?"
Delilah's gentle and affectionate voice came through the phone.
Zephyr's eyes flickered with curiosity.
Why did Delilah want him to visit next weekend, not this weekend?
"I should be free. Why, is something up?"
"Celeste's niece, Genevieve Brooks, will also be visiting me. You should meet her."
Delilah laughed. "You've met her before. Genevieve is very pretty and will graduate from college in a few months. You two would be a good match."
Zephyr knew it; Delilah was trying to set him up again.
He quickly said, "Aunt Delilah, I don't need a girlfriend."
Delilah was displeased. "You're getting older; you can't stay single forever. I know you're sentimental, but Cora is married now. You can't stay single forever because of her."
Cora was now Sandy.
Zephyr was silent for a moment, his expression serious.
"Aunt Delilah, you misunderstand. I've moved on from her. I said no because I already have a girlfriend."
Delilah was stunned. "You already have a girlfriend? I don't believe it. You're just trying to avoid my matchmaking."
Zephyr said, "I'm not lying. My girlfriend and I just started dating. She's right here with me. Want me to let her talk to you?"
"Sure," Delilah said eagerly.
"Hold on."
Zephyr got up and went to the next room.
Lost in thought, he didn't knock and just walked in.
At that moment, Jane was doing some stretching exercises.
Her arms were raised, causing her shirt to lift.
It revealed a small part of her underwear.
The sudden exposure was visually striking.
Zephyr took a quick breath and instinctively wanted to leave.
But seeing Delilah on the call, he turned around.
"Jane, my Aunt Delilah wants to talk to you."
Jane was about to tease him for being rude.
Was he trying to peek at her?
Seeing Zephyr's serious expression, she swallowed her words and composed herself.
Zephyr put the call on speaker, and they sat down, heads close together.
"Hello, I'm Jane."
"Hello."
Delilah's voice carried a hint of joy, but she probed, "Ms. Harvey, are you really Zephyr's girlfriend? He didn't just find someone to fool me, did he?"
Jane instinctively glanced at Zephyr, seeing his slightly furrowed brow, looking a bit nervous.
A spark of intrigue flickered in her eyes, and she deliberately said, "Delilah, actually we..."
