After these words were spoken, the atmosphere around them suddenly became somewhat strange.
Su Ping felt Shen Jiayu staring at her, and that gaze made her tremble uncontrollably.
But she gritted her teeth and looked back at him with a firm expression.
The two looked at each other, and neither spoke for a moment.
Just as Su Ping's strange premonition was growing stronger, she suddenly saw Shen Jiayu smile.
As if he had just realized what she had said, he handed her the milk and then drank the glass he had given her in one gulp.
After finishing his drink, he said in a good mood, "Pingping is right. I was a bit short-sighted."
Is the milk okay?
Su Ping felt a little embarrassed thinking about how she had just suspected him of putting something in the milk. She smiled sheepishly and finished the milk in her glass.
Shen Jiayu watched her tilt her head back and gulp down the drink, and he swallowed hard as well.
He then licked the milk stain on his upper lip.
Strange, it didn't taste like anything when I drank it just now, how come it's sweet now?
After drinking a glass of warm milk, Su Ping felt her entire body relax.
Feeling that Shen Jiayu was still watching her, she placed the empty cup on the table somewhat shyly and said with a smile, "Thank you, Jiayu, the milk is delicious."
Shen Jiayu reached out and touched her hair again, smiling gently as he said, "It's okay, after all, you've helped me a lot. Okay, I'm a little sleepy, so I'll go to sleep first."
After saying that, he yawned and walked towards the bed, where he lay down to sleep.
After a short while, there was no more movement. Su Ping tiptoed over there and found that he had taken off his glasses and was obediently sleeping under a thin blanket.
Falling asleep so quickly? Looks like you're really tired.
After quickly washing up in the bathroom, Su Ping went back to bed.
Before turning off the lights, she glanced at Shen Jiayu, who was sleeping on the floor beside her.
He maintained that posture throughout. Under the light, the way he looked without his glasses was vastly different from how he looked with them, and he seemed to have become several years younger.
Wearing glasses definitely makes me look older.
Su Ping felt sleepy after just one glance. She turned off the light, covered herself with the blanket, and lay down. Soon, her eyes began to close.
Before she fell asleep, only one thought remained in her mind—this milk really does have a good sleep-inducing effect.
Hearing steady breathing coming from the bed, the man on the floor slowly opened his eyes.
A gap in the curtains by the French windows allowed moonlight to stream in and fall directly on half of his face.
In the darkness, you could see him curl the corners of his lips into a smile, then lift the thin blanket covering him and sit up.
Shen Jiayu glanced at the two cups on the other side of the table, and his smile deepened.
Fortunately, he had been careful and kept the glass of milk for himself. Just as he expected, Pingping ultimately chose to drink her own glass.
He looked at Su Ping's peaceful sleeping face, who was already asleep on the bed, and reached out to touch her face.
She had just finished washing up, and her skin was unbelievably good, like a peeled egg white, smooth and delicate, making it irresistible to touch.
Feeling his touch, Su Ping seemed oblivious in her sleep, muttering a few words before turning over and continuing to sleep.
Under the moonlight, the man stood up from the ground, then lifted the blanket on the bed and lay down.
After successfully pulling the sleeping Su Ping into his arms, Shen Jiayu revealed a satisfied smile.
Her body was delicate and soft, and there was a faint scent of gardenias in her hair.
Shen Jiayu leaned closer, closed his eyes, and took a gentle sniff. He felt a strange sense of familiarity with the scent.
Suddenly, his movements froze.
When he came in, Su Ping was drying her hair. Her family never uses gardenia-scented shampoo, so where did this smell come from?
A strange light flashed in his eyes. Before he could make a further move, the person in his arms suddenly murmured, showing signs of waking up.
He was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, his hand on her waist caught in a dilemma.
He calculated the dosage correctly; it should be enough for her to sleep soundly until tomorrow morning.
If he were to wake up now and find himself sleeping in bed with her in his arms, how would he explain it...?
But he soon realized he was overthinking it. Su Ping mumbled something in his arms and then turned over to face him.
With her eyes closed, she was sleeping soundly.
Feeling her warm breath on his neck, Shen Jiayu moved closer and closer to her.
Before long, my lips tasted a soft lip.
The soft and delicious taste made him unable to resist tracing her lip shape along her natural lip line.
In the quiet night, only the sound of his rapidly pounding heartbeat remained.
Su Ping didn't sleep well all night, feeling like a glutinous rice ball being kneaded and rubbed.
When she felt the sunlight streaming in through the window, she groaned and opened her eyes.
Even though she was sleeping soundly, why did her body ache so much?
Su Ping rubbed her eyes and quickly realized something was wrong.
She actually fell asleep right in Shen Jiayu's arms!
Before her brain could even process it, she had already pushed Shen Jiayu, who was holding her, away with one hand.
Shen Jiayu was woken up by the noise. He opened his sleepy eyes and was stunned when he saw Su Ping's angry face in front of him.
"Didn't you say you wouldn't come to bed? What's going on now?"
