Ye Qing was surprised that, given their current relationship, Xi Quan would say something like that. Was he jealous?!
That's ridiculous!
Ye Qing glanced at Xi Quan with a half-smile and asked, "Do you think that's possible?"
"Why is it impossible?" Xi Quan did not answer Ye Qing's question directly, but instead threw the question back at Ye Qing.
Ye Qing instinctively wanted to clench her hands, but realizing that Xi Quan was staring at her, she loosened her fingers again: "Jealousy proves that I still have feelings for you, but Xi Quan, do you think that's possible? Putting aside the fact that we haven't been in contact for so many years, let's talk about how we got together in the first place? I hope you can remember it carefully."
Although Ye Qing said a lot, he didn't actually answer Xi Quan's question.
However, this also caused Xi Quan's slightly improved mood to plummet again. In fact, he didn't need to recall; he remembered every single detail of his time with Ye Qing very clearly. It was precisely because he remembered everything so clearly that he was speechless at Ye Qing's words.
He tricked Ye Qing into becoming his girlfriend.
Ye Qing glanced sideways at the silent Xi Quan, then lowered her eyes and composed herself. She walked to the bedside, picked up a pillow, and placed it on the sofa: "I'll sleep on the sofa."
Although she didn't want to share a room with Xi Quan, she was also afraid that the two clever children would find out and disappoint them, so Ye Qing didn't insist on separating from Xi Quan.
As she walked towards the sofa, pressing the pillow, she passed by Xi Quan, who casually snatched the pillow from Ye Qing's hand: "I'll sleep on the sofa."
Because Xi Quan's action was sudden, Ye Qing was initially caught off guard. The moment Xi Quan snatched her pillow, Ye Qing instinctively fought back against him.
Staggering in the struggle, and about to fall, Xi Quan quickly turned around, trying to fall on top of Ye Shuang to cushion Ye Qing's fall and prevent her from getting hurt. However, Ye Qing was unaware of Xi Quan's intentions and was also struggling to grab the things from him.
So Xi Quan's idea was good, but the final result was...
In the end, Xi Quan didn't fall to the ground, but instead fell onto the sofa. Due to inertia, Ye Qing saw Xi Quan fall, but it was too late to stand up straight, and she fell directly into Xi Quan's arms.
Although the final result was different from what Xi Quan had imagined, he was still very happy with it.
Ye Qing didn't know what Xi Quan was thinking at first, but when she saw Xi Quan fall, she knew that if she couldn't control her strength, this might be the result. So after falling onto the sofa, Ye Qing immediately struggled to break free.
Xi Quan was secretly pleased with the current situation. Sensing Ye Qing's struggle, he quickly tightened his grip and hugged Ye Qing tightly.
Her waist was tightly bound, which was very uncomfortable. Moreover, for Ye Qing, it wasn't just the discomfort of being constricted that bothered her. After all, the person in front of her was Xi Quan, her husband whom she hated but still had feelings for. That natural embarrassment made her very troubled.
Because Ye Qing could feel her heartbeat was about to explode.
The two were so close that Xi Quan could feel Ye Qing's rapid heartbeat, as could he himself. So he couldn't help but kiss Ye Qing, feeling very nervous. Xi Quan was even prepared for Ye Qing to slap him.
However, after waiting for a while, Ye Qing did not make any move, which seemed to Xi Quan as an encouragement, and he became bolder and bolder.
After the kiss ended and there was no slapping incident, Xi Quan's mood improved dramatically once again. He smiled and looked at Ye Qing, "Do you still deny that you have no feelings for her?"
Ye Qing controlled her rapidly beating heart, pretending to be nonchalant: "Xi Quan, sometimes you can't take things too seriously. For some people, emotions and physical feelings can actually be separated quite well. I've been abroad for so long, you didn't think I've been..."
Xi Quan trusted Ye Qing and knew that Ye Qing wasn't that kind of person, but Ye Qing's words really provoked him. Before Ye Qing could finish speaking, he angrily interrupted her: "Don't say anymore!"
"So stop trying to prove whether I still have feelings for you or whether I'm jealous with some unconvincing reasons."
After speaking, Ye Qing raised her hand to wipe her mouth. It wasn't that she was disgusted with Xi Quan, but the flirtatious gesture made Xi Quan angrier than if she was disgusted with him!
So Xi Quan stood up and walked out.
Watching Xi Quan walk away in anger, Ye Qing wasn't particularly happy. Deep down, she didn't want to do it either. So, seeing Xi Quan about to slam the door and leave, Ye Qing blurted out, "Don't slam the door and wake the two children. And if you're going to sleep outside, get up early in the morning so you don't give yourself away in front of the children."
Hearing this, Xi Quan felt as if his and Ye Qing's roles had been switched, and that these words should have been spoken by him.
Although it wasn't Xi Quan who brought up the topic of sharing a room with Ye Qing, he didn't object to the child's actions; in fact, he quite liked them. However, he never expected that his wish would be fulfilled, and he would just leave like this?!
The more Xi Quan thought about it, the more he felt he had lost out, so he turned back, didn't even glance at Ye Qing, and went straight to lie down on the bed.
Seeing Xi Quan's attitude, Ye Qing regretted saying that extra word, because she could foresee how awkward it would be for the two of them to be in the same room.
So Ye Qing prepared to sleep on the sofa as planned. Just as she lay down, she heard Xi Quan say, "Aren't you going to cover yourself with a blanket today? It's okay if you catch a cold, but don't infect your son and daughter."
Ye Qing, who had just lain down, was silent for a while after hearing Xi Quan's words. She then sat up again. She originally wanted to ask Xi Quan where the blanket was, but seeing that Xi Quan had his eyes closed and his back to her, Ye Qing didn't ask and went to find it herself.
But after searching the room for a long time, really turning everything upside down, I still couldn't find an extra blanket.
At first, Ye Qing had some doubts, but now she was almost certain that Xi Quan did it on purpose.
Standing by the bed, looking at Xi Quan who had his back to her, Ye Qing thought, "Who's afraid of who?"
She went back to the sofa, grabbed a pillow, lay down, and pulled the blanket from the bedside table to cover herself.
By the time Xi Quan realized what was happening and tried to snatch the blanket from Ye Qing, it was too late. Looking at Ye Qing, who was wrapped up like a silkworm cocoon, Xi Quan was angry, but after calming down, he felt a little smug.
The next day, when Ye Qing woke up, she found herself being held tightly in someone's arms. She was stunned for a moment, then slowly opened her eyes and looked at everything in front of her. She closed her eyes again, and realized that the two of them had actually fallen asleep in each other's arms!
Just as Ye Qing was about to shake Xi Quan awake and question him about what had happened, the two children frantically slammed the door shut outside.
