"If you don't have enough pocket money, ask me for more."
Xiao Che stared incredulously at the two ten-yuan bills in his hand, feeling a little dazed. "Is this what it feels like to have pocket money from my wife?" he thought. "It's pretty good!"
However, "I don't need that much; I eat and use everything at work."
He was about to pull out a card and hand it back to her.
Bai Yajing reached out and stopped her.
"Take it, just in case you urgently need the money. It wouldn't be good to be unable to come up with it later, would it?"
When that time comes, won't his colleagues laugh at him? She couldn't bear to.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Che stopped worrying and put the money away.
The two of them enjoyed a rare moment of tenderness together, and it was quite late by then.
Xiao Che then suggested, "You go take a shower first, I'll take care of the tidying up. The weather is getting cooler now, so put on a jacket before you come out."
"Okay." Bai Yajing went back to her room, grabbed her clothes, and went to the bathroom.
After tidying up the kitchen, Xiao Che went to the room and took out bedding from the wardrobe to remake Bai Yajing's bed and change the sheets. The temperature was starting to drop at night, and he was afraid she would catch a cold.
Bai Yajing saw it when she came out, and her heart warmed.
"Go take a shower too. It's getting cold now, so you should sleep in bed and not catch a cold."
It was just an ordinary sentence, but it made Xiao Che's ears turn red instantly. He waved his hands repeatedly and refused haltingly.
"No, no, that's not good for your reputation. I... I'll sleep on the floor..."
Seeing his restraint, Bai Yajing couldn't help but laugh.
"Are you stupid? To outsiders, we're a married couple, living under the same roof and sleeping in the same bed. Whether you sleep on the floor or not, it's all the same."
Besides, we're an officially engaged couple, we'll get married sooner or later, so sleeping together is fine. It's going to get even colder, you can't keep sleeping on the floor, can you? You'll catch a cold, that would be a real problem.”
The elders of both families had already tacitly agreed that they would get married once Xiao Che finished his mission.
Xiao Che also thought about how cold the winter was here. Although he could endure it, he could feel the concern in her words. Finally, he understood and stopped refusing.
She responded softly, then took her clothes and went out to take a shower.
When he finished washing up and returned to the room, Bai Yajing was almost asleep, leaving half of her space for him.
He hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and lay down.
He lay upright, not daring to touch the other person at all.
Listening to the even breathing of the person beside him, smelling their faint fragrance, and feeling their warm body, he had a premonition that he would have trouble sleeping tonight…
I nervously swallowed, closed my eyes, shook off the distracting thoughts in my mind, and forced myself to fall asleep.
Unfortunately, the effect was not significant...
Bai Yajing, however, had already fallen asleep without a care in the world. She even turned over, draped one leg over him, and then put her hand on top of him as well.
Feeling the weight on her body made her even more nervous and afraid to move, and she couldn't fall asleep even more...
They even moved it a little more quietly...
