Seeing Fu Jue's pitiful and aggrieved face, how could Gu Qingqing bear to refuse him?

“Qingqing, you sleep on the bed, I…” He pointed to the bed, then to the sofa not far away, leaving half of his sentence for her to ponder.

"I'll sleep in the bed? Then you'll have to sleep on the sofa?" Gu Qingqing's mouth opened wide and round.

How can he be so kind and considerate? He's simply the best man in the world.

"No, no! Mr. Fu, you're injured and need to rest. You can't sleep on the sofa. I'll sleep on the sofa. You should stay in bed!" Besides genuinely caring about his health, she also worried that if Assistant Yin found out he was sleeping on the sofa, he'd skin her alive.

She could feel Assistant Yin's strong malice towards her just now; he probably thought she was the one who caused Master Fu's injury!

"Qingqing, you're a girl, how can you sleep on the sofa? You're also my adopted sister, how can I, as your older brother, bully you and make you sleep on the sofa? Qingqing, listen to your brother." Fu Jue was so anxious that he had already brought up the terms of brother and sister.

"No, Mr. Fu, you can't sleep on the sofa. It will have a bad effect on your recovery. You should sleep in the bed! I'll be fine sleeping on the sofa, really. I'm tough, nothing will happen to me." She insisted stubbornly, and he was also very troubled.

"Qingqing, you are such a good girl, but I can't get over it. You are a girl, and as your older brother, I must take good care of you." Fu Jue lowered his eyes, frowned, and pursed his lips, looking innocent and pitiful.

“Master Fu, you…” Gu Qingqing was moved by him. She was truly fortunate to have recognized him as her sworn brother.

"Qingqing, the bed is so big, why don't you sleep with me? I'll sleep on the left, and you can sleep on the right?" Fu Jue's patience had dropped to zero, and in his anxiety, he spoke his mind.

"Huh?" Sleeping in the same bed?

Having to share a bed is one thing, but to be alone in a room is another?

Gu Qingqing was shocked and couldn't accept it. After all, she and Fu Jue had only known each other for half a month, and they hadn't reached the point of mutual trust. What if they slept in the same bed and he made advances on her?

"Qingqing, look how big this bed is. Even if we each sleep on one side, there's still room for three or four people in the middle. Don't worry. I'm doing this for your own good. First, sleeping on the bed is more comfortable than sleeping on the sofa, and second, it's easier for you to take care of me." Seeing that she disagreed, Fu Jue hurriedly brought up the reason that "I'm doing this for your own good."

This reason truly left Gu Qingqing speechless and unable to refuse. Looking at Fu Jue's huge bed, it was indeed as he said, more than enough to sleep five people. So he might really be thinking of her, because no matter how high-end or comfortable his sofa was, it could never be more comfortable than his bed.

After much consideration, she finally nodded in agreement.

"Qingqing, you're so thoughtful. Let's rest! I'm sleepy." Fu Jue was so happy that he almost jumped up when he saw that she agreed, but luckily he restrained himself and didn't give himself away in front of her.

He was afraid she wouldn't believe his excuse, so he deliberately yawned, looking like he was about to fall asleep.

"Master Fu, you should go to sleep." Gu Qingqing helped him lie down, and caught his yawn, she yawned as well.

She walked around to the other side of the bed without saying hello. She was so sleepy she could barely keep her eyes open, and her body was so weak that she finally lay down on the edge of the bed and fell fast asleep.

She was really exhausted.

"This little glutton is not only greedy, but also loves to sleep." Seeing her adorable sleeping face, Fu Jue was in a good mood, and the corners of his lips turned up slightly, revealing a beautiful smile.

He couldn't help but raise his hand to touch her face.

Unfortunately, there were several people between them, so he couldn't touch her at all.

She longed to be closer, so he could touch her and hug her.

but……

It's okay. The fact that he and she were able to sleep in the same bed today is already a big step forward. We can't ask for too much, and we can't rush things.

Take it slow, things will definitely get better.

He believed that in the near future, he would be able to caress her face, kiss her forehead and lips, and hold her as they fell asleep until dawn.

Let her rest now! Nothing is more important than her sleeping.

Fu Jue kept gazing at Gu Qingqing's sleeping face, so sleepy that he couldn't keep his eyelids open, and fell asleep in less than a minute.

...

Gu Qingqing was sleeping soundly, her little mouth pouting as she smacked her lips twice, as if she were eating something. She was also muttering in her sleep, "Delicious, delicious... Third Brother, don't take it from me! Third Brother, you're so mean! Second Brother, please teach Second Brother a lesson!"

When Fu Jue woke up, he saw her adorable appearance and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Gu Qingqing was awakened by his laughter. After her sweet dream disappeared, she slowly opened her sleepy eyes. She seemed to have just dreamed. She dreamed of her second and third brothers.

She missed them so much; after not seeing them for days, she longed to see them again. It turned out they had already taken up a very important place in her heart.

"Qingqing, you're awake. Did you sleep well?" Fu Jue greeted her gently, like a couple deeply in love, their affection as strong as glue and inseparable.

He was worried that she wouldn't be used to sleeping in his bed, since many people have the habit of being particular about their own bed.

He himself has this habit; if he sleeps in someone else's bed, he will be so bad that he can't sleep all night.

Even when he travels for business and stays in hotels, he sleeps in the presidential suite he has booked all year round, and then changes the bedding to ones he has used before in order to get a good night's sleep.

But seeing her sleeping like a little piglet, and even having a dream about being a little foodie, she must be quite used to his bed. Besides, she slept for a full two and a half hours before waking up, so her sleep was quite good; it's remarkable that she could sleep so soundly after experiencing an explosion.

"How did you end up in my bed? You pervert!" Seeing Fu Jue sleeping next to her, Gu Qingqing didn't immediately recall that she had shared a bed with him to take care of him. As a result, she was so angry that she didn't care about anything else and slapped him with all her might.

"Qingqing!" Fu Jue didn't expect her to actually attack him and almost failed to dodge her attack.

His head tilted to the side, narrowly avoiding her fist. Luckily, she didn't hit him, otherwise he would have gotten a black eye.

"Mr. Fu... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." Gu Qingqing covered her mouth, wishing she could disappear into a dog hole.

How embarrassing! She was the one who agreed to share a bed with him, and her intention was to take care of him. But she forgot all that, and after sleeping with him for an afternoon, she just called him a pervert and even wanted to slap him.

She's such a jerk, all I can do now is beg him not to get angry, please don't get angry.

Fu Jue didn't say anything, just stared at her, making her feel a chill down her spine.

"Mr. Fu, I was wrong, please don't be angry, I really didn't mean it. It was just a conditioned reflex; after all, any girl would be scared to see a man sleeping next to her."

"And when I woke up just now, I was still half asleep. I thought I was in my own home, in my own bedroom. Your bed is so comfortable. Where did you buy it? I want to buy one for myself."

There are countless ways to get by in this world, but flattery will never fail you.
