Chapter 130 Reluctant to Part
As Bai Lu pondered and hesitated, a man's deep voice suddenly echoed in the small space.
"I'll sleep in the storage room when I get back."
Bai Lu looked up abruptly, meeting those deep eyes that seemed to have cleared for a moment, and that face that had made a serious and decisive decision in a moment. Her hesitant heart was inexplicably calmed down.
He said blankly, "I'll go."
There's no reason for a tenant to sleep in the master bedroom.
"I'll go."
When it comes to stubbornness, no one can compare to a three-year-old who can change his mood in an instant; no one can compete with him.
Otherwise, it will get angry and bite people.
Bai Lu was pulled into a broad chest, her collarbone buried in a sharply defined face, a straight nose against her neck, and thin, slightly cool lips that seemed to bite with every movement.
Although it was just one bite, then another.
"...It seems the pillow hasn't been brought back yet, the mosquito net hasn't been put down, there's only one quilt, and the sheet hasn't been laid out. Aren't you cold lying on the bamboo mat?"
"It's not cold."
The reply was still buried in her neck.
Bai Lu shrank back, but it didn't have much effect, because the child's face also buried itself in her arms.
So, is this the price for the landlord to move to the storage room to sleep, the last supper?
Otherwise, she can move it herself.
"Actually, I quite like sleeping in the storage room. How about you sleep in the master bedroom and I sleep in the storage room?"
Xiao Cheng looked up abruptly: "I told you I'm going to sleep."
Then don't bite me!
Those who know you'd think you're biting someone, while those who don't would think you're gnawing on a pig's trotter, and the more you gnaw, the further down you go!
Does being drunk give you the right to act unreasonably?
"Are you cold?" Xiao Cheng noticed Bai Lu's shoulders tremble and assumed she was cold.
I had no idea she was angry.
Without waiting for her answer, he lifted the covers, got up, bent down and carried her to the chair by the bed.
Then I rolled the blanket to the foot of the bed, put the pillow from the other blanket back at the head of the bed, took the sheet down and spread it out, and stuffed the extra blanket back into the closet.
Everything happened quickly and smoothly. Before Bai Lu could even react, she had already been carried back to bed and covered with a blanket.
"sleep."
After putting Bai Lu down, Xiao Cheng stopped holding her, lay back in his seat, and turned off the light.
I casually put down the mosquito net.
Close your eyes and go to sleep.
In the dim moonlight, from Bailu's angle, all she could see was the man's prominent nose, his tightly closed eyes, and his cold, sharp features—the look of a silent, powerful figure.
She felt slightly relieved and slowly drifted off to sleep.
The stars twinkled like a waterfall cascading down the river, and a gentle breeze scattered white chestnut blossoms across the ground.
One drifts on the river, another lands on the windowsill.
Bathed in moonlight, the moonlight illuminated two figures on the bed who had unconsciously and habitually snuggled together, falling asleep in each other's arms.
The night is long, and some are happy while others are sad.
After leaving Xiao Cheng's house, Luo Shiliu and Xiao Dazhuang asked Wang Hao if he wanted to stay at their house for the night.
Wang Hao vomited repeatedly on the roadside, so drunk that he could only stagger and needed his two brothers to support him. Upon hearing this, he instinctively refused, saying that Chen Chunli would leave the door open for him.
Luo Shiliu and Xiao Dazhuang didn't say much. They took him home and helped him climb over the wall to get in.
Before the two had gone far, a shrewish roar erupted from Wang Hao's house, shaking the roof tiles so violently they seemed about to fall off.
Faintly, one could also hear the sound of things being smashed in anger.
The neighbors next door seemed to be used to it; they would turn on the lights in their house, and then turn them off a moment later.
The two, who were supporting each other, stopped. Xiao Dazhuang turned to Luo Shiliu and asked, "Should we turn around and take a look?"
Luo Shiliu paused for a moment, then continued walking forward: "He made his own choice, so he has to deal with it himself."
"We can't help, and it's not our place to interfere."... Bai Lu is really unaware of what's going on in this family's affairs.
Xiao Dazhuang also remembered what Ou Shi Bailu had said, shook his head sympathetically, and swayed home.
It was before dawn.
The sound of someone getting up was heard softly.
The man, with his upright posture, dressed himself, tidied everything up quietly, returned to the bedside, and sat down.
Quietly watching the girl sleeping soundly in bed.
She rolled over, but lying on her side seemed uncomfortable, so she rolled back to lying flat on her back. A strand of hair fell from her forehead like a blush on her cheek, clinging to her long eyelashes at the corner of her eye.
Disturbing her peaceful sleep, her eyelashes trembled, but she didn't let a strand of hair fall down; instead, her delicate, misty eyebrows furrowed.
A long, slender finger with distinct knuckles reached out and gently brushed away the strands of hair clinging to her eyelashes.
Her brows relaxed, and she calmed down again.
Even when fingertips brushed against cheeks, eyebrows, lips, and chin, there was no further reaction.
Until a cool touch brushed against her forehead, followed by a gentle kiss, her quiet, long eyelashes trembled.
His eyelids twitched, as if he wanted to wake up, but he didn't.
Her pink lips parted slightly, opening and closing as if a murmur echoed from the distant starry sky: "Water..."
Xiao Cheng poured a glass of warm water, scooped half a spoonful of water with a small spoon, and fed it to her lips.
Dry lips are moistened and nourished by the spring water, as if they have been evenly moistened by rain and dew, and quickly regain their pink and soft color.
The tip of the tongue dances around the corner of the lips, swirling back the trembling water droplets, as if inviting you to appreciate and savor them.
Xiao Cheng slowly lowered his head, stopped when he was close to Lulu's pink lips, softly called out "Lulu", and kissed her.
Bai Lu's eyelashes trembled slightly, her tightly closed eyes moved, and as the familiar, crisp scent entered her lips, she gradually regained her composure. Even as the crisp, gentle scent ravaged her, she remained calm. After a long, long time of lingering intimacy, she remained calm.
This caused Xiao Cheng, who had only intended to try it briefly, to lose his composure and become completely engrossed, lingering there for a long time before finally leaving.
The night sky slowly faded away.
There was a knock on the door.
Luo Shiliu and Xiao Dazhuang, carrying large backpacks, squatted on the ground, looking at the tightly closed gate over and over again.
"Is Brother Cheng still not up?" Xiao Dazhuang scratched the back of his head, his panda eyes full of confusion.
"Weren't you told to come earlier?"
Luo Shiliu yawned: "I told you to come earlier, not to bang on my door like crazy."
“It’s almost dawn.” Xiao Dazhuang explained seriously, “Brother Cheng said we should leave before dawn.”
The door opened as soon as he finished speaking.
A completely new-looking man, looking refreshed and radiant, walked out, leaving Luo Shiliu and Xiao Dazhuang outside the door dumbfounded, their jaws agape.
"Brother Cheng..."
"Your new hairstyle... is pretty badass!"
After a half-second pause, Luo Shiliu and Xiao Dazhuang both gave a thumbs up: "Big Brother's cooking is really good!"
"Your sister-in-law cut it."
Xiao Dazhuang: "..."
Luo Shiliu: "..."
Is it really okay to show off your love so early in the morning?
Didn't they show enough last night?! Wasn't that enough?!
As Xiao Cheng closed the door, he caught a glimpse of a small bald head in the corner of the main house. He paused for a moment, then pushed the door open slightly.
"come over."
The little guy had secretly seen them off so many times before, but this was the first time he was summoned, and he immediately ran out.
She stopped at a suitable distance from the man's legs, her small hands nervously clutching her clothes, her head tilted back with eyes full of expectation.
The older brother is saying goodbye to him!
This was the first time his older brother had said goodbye to him!
"Take good care of her at home."
