Chapter 461: Coaxing Her to Sleep

Meng Chuyuan's expression was a little stunned, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Lu Qingye had just liked her circle of friends, but in the blink of an eye he appeared in front of her.

She lowered her eyes and said gently, "Are you done?"

"Yeah." Lu Qingye closed the door casually and walked in slowly, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Meng Chuyuan almost blurted out: "Waiting for you."

Her tone was emotionless, as if she was saying that the weather was nice today.

When Lu Qingye heard this, he was stunned, as if he was surprised by Meng Chuyuan's answer.

The words "waiting for you" were even more surprising than when he saw Meng Chuyuan's circle of friends just now.

He felt that Meng Chuyuan seemed to have changed a lot recently, but he also had a feeling that he couldn't put into words.

Although it seemed that there had been some changes, Meng Chuyuan's thoughts were still difficult to understand. For example, the sentence she just said was obviously weighty, but when it came out of her mouth it sounded light and airy, as if it was not worth mentioning.

Meng Chuyuan inadvertently raised her eyes and saw that he looked a little lost. She asked doubtfully, "What's wrong? Is work not going well?"

Lu Qingye's eyes curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, and he said in a deep voice: "Nothing, I'll go change my clothes."

He went to the cloakroom to change into pajamas and came back. Then he walked to the bed, opened the quilt and lay down. He opened his arms and let Meng Chuyuan rest his head on his arms. "Come here, it's time to sleep."

"Oh." After seeing Lu Qingye lying down, Meng Chuyuan put her cell phone on the bedside table and snuggled into his arms.

Lu Qingye put his arm around her waist, lowered his eyes and saw her smiling sweetly. He couldn't help but be curious: "What are you so happy about?"

"No." She didn't know what was wrong, she was just a little unusually excited.

Perhaps it was because posting on WeChat Moments for the first time brought her new experience and achievement, which made Meng Chuyuan immersed in it and her mood inexplicably improved.

It turns out that sharing is such a happy thing.

"Are you sleepy?" Lu Qingye asked her as he reached out to turn off the main light in the room, leaving only a small one on. His gaze returned to Meng Chuyuan and he said with some heartache, "Next time if you feel sleepy, just go to bed first and don't wait for me."

"I'm not sleepy." Meng Chuyuan is very energetic now and really not sleepy at all.

Lu Qingye tilted his head and glanced at the clock on the bedside table. "It's already late."

It’s nothing for him, he can get up early no matter how late he goes to bed, but Meng Chuyuan is different, her work and rest schedule has always been very regular.

However, since Meng Chuyuan has been with him, she occasionally stays up late with him.

In the past, if Meng Chuyuan couldn’t fall asleep after lying down for a long time, she would feel anxious, but now she felt nothing but an inexplicable excitement.

"Then what should I do?" Meng Chuyuan looked up at him. After a moment's silence, she slowly said, "Do you want to coax me to sleep?"

Lu Qingye looked down at her, "How can I coax you?"

Meng Chuyuan thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you tell me a story?"

After hearing what Meng Chuyuan said, Lu Qingye's expression became a little complicated, his brain working rapidly, as if he didn't have any stories to tell.

He had told Lu Qianling these stories before, but those were fairy tales for children and it was not appropriate to tell them in front of Meng Chuyuan now.

After a while, Lu Qingye frowned and said, "I can't tell stories."

Meng Chuyuan was not surprised at all when she heard Lu Qingye's refusal, as if she had known he would refuse. So she said, "I want to hear your stories about your school days."
