"What are you looking at?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Qinghe was startled and tried to cover up her mistake by shoving her phone under the blanket on her lap.
"N-nothing..."
Yan Xiao walked over with a slight frown, his eyes full of guilt: "Did I scare you?"
Wen Qinghe choked, she thought the man would ask what she had just taken...
As it turns out, this person's thought process is always different from hers.
Seeing the worry in the man's eyes, she composed herself and shook her head at him.
Worried that the man might bring up the previous topic, she quickly spoke up:
"Brother Yan, is dinner ready? I'm a little hungry."
After saying that, she lifted the small blanket and got up, but her little hand was actually inside the blanket, her wrist flipping to put the phone into the space.
...
As the last rays of the setting sun faded, night fell exceptionally quickly.
By the time the two finished dinner, night had fallen.
The winter night was dark and cold, with a quiet and cool twilight outside.
After the meal, he immediately boiled a large bucket of water and put it into a wooden tub so that the little girl could wash up first.
Yan Xiao was filled with anticipation at the thought of sharing a bed with Yan Xiao in the future.
Although it used to be just the two of them living together.
But today is different. Legally and in terms of actual relationship, she has become his wife.
The man's joy was palpable.
Even just watching the little girl sleep in the same space makes him incredibly happy and excited.
…
Wen Qinghe had been eyeing this human-shaped hand warmer ever since that day at the supply and marketing cooperative.
Today, she finally doesn't have to warm up the cold bed by herself.
La la la~ She even sped up her shower.
When she came out of the shower, Yan Xiao was already waiting for her at the door with a towel.
Seeing the little girl dressed in thin pajamas, he quickly led her into the house.
There was a stove in the room, so the temperature was a bit higher than outside. The man gently wiped the girl's hair with a tender expression.
He waited until the little girl's hair was dry before taking a shower.
In the past, he would simply use a basin and a ladle to pour water over himself when taking a bath, and that would wash away the sweat.
But tonight is their wedding night, and the young girl always smells wonderful.
And since she was so clean, he inexplicably grabbed a bath towel and started scrubbing his entire body.
I rubbed it a few times, but it still wasn't enough.
He then put in a bit more effort, rubbing his entire body until it was shaped like a big red shrimp before stopping.
I was going to just rinse it with water and dry it, but then my eyes fell on a small, transparent jar on the table.
This is the shower gel that Wen Qinghe gave him before, saying it could replace soap.
He rarely uses soap when he takes a bath; he only bought the soap when he was washing clothes for a little girl.
He himself was like a bath towel, scrubbing from top to bottom. The jar was given to him by the little girl, but he had never opened it and had never been willing to use it.
He opened it and scooped out a little bit, following the instructions the little girl had given him, lathering it up and applying it to his body.
The scent is a light citrus fragrance, not very strong, but refreshing and pleasant.
Yan Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
Qingqing is so good to him~
After washing himself clean, he changed into a clean cotton undershirt.
My usually leisurely pace was unusually hesitant today.
Looking at the door just a few steps away.
Through the crack in the door, I could see the candle was still burning; I wondered if she was asleep…
He hadn't informed the girl beforehand that he would be sleeping in this room tonight as well.
I don't know if suddenly going in will offend her.
He was unusually annoyed; he should have asked the girl for her opinion before dinner.
Why don't we go in first?
If the girl asks, well, he'll just say he's going in to get something.
After mentally preparing himself, he finally let out a deep breath.
I mustered up my courage and knocked on the door.
"Knock knock knock"
Come in!
Hearing the little girl's sweet voice, the tension in his heart dissipated.
Just as he pushed open the door, still pondering how to start the conversation naturally,
When they arrived, they found the little girl still wrapped in a blanket, sitting by the stove.
He frowned slightly, his tone revealing obvious concern: "Why are you still sitting here? Be careful not to catch a cold."
Wen Qinghe complained, "Why did it take you so long? It's so cold in bed, I always have a hard time warming myself up..."
Upon hearing this, Yan Xiao felt filled with guilt.
"Sweetie, it's my fault. I won't make you wait next time."
He shouldn't have hesitated outside for so long. He knew beforehand that she was frail and afraid of the cold, but he didn't dare to come in because of that ridiculous thought.
He didn't dare to delay any longer, so he bent down and put the person sitting down, along with the blanket, into the bed.
First, I turned off the lights before walking to the bedside, lying down, and wrapping that little bundle in my arms.
The man's burning body temperature seeped through the fabric, and Wen Qinghe instinctively adjusted herself into a comfortable position in his arms.
The blankets seemed to heat up instantly, and Wen Qinghe was enveloped in warmth from head to toe, letting out a comfortable sigh.
Yan Xiao's lips curled slightly when he heard the little girl's comfortable sigh.
Without realizing it, she wrapped the little one in her arms even tighter.
...
In the still of the night, the earth is fast asleep.
Wen Qinghe fell asleep very quickly because the temperature in the quilt was just right.
The room was very quiet; even the slightest breathing sound was amplified.
Judging from the little girl's even breathing, she seemed to have entered a deep sleep.
Yan Xiao felt the warmth and softness in his arms; the little girl's head was nestled against his chest.
The air was filled with the sweet fragrance of her breath, reminding me of the sweet taste I had experienced before.
