Meng Fuyan couldn't help but reach out her finger and gently trace the outline before leaning over to kiss it.
Normally, he should have woken up by now. Given his alertness, he wouldn't be unresponsive in this situation. But right now, he's still fast asleep.
Meng Fuyan looked into his eyes. There were dark circles under his eyes, the result of long-term sleep deprivation. He must have been very busy while she was away.
Without disturbing him any further, Meng Fuyan nestled in his arms for a while longer. When she saw that it was almost time, she gently got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.
When Gu Tingzhi came out after washing up, he was just awake. He was a little confused when he saw that there was no one in his arms. But when he looked again, he realized that the girl had indeed returned and he was not dreaming.
Why didn't you sleep a little longer?
Meng Fuyan came to his side and said gently, "You've had a good night's sleep! You look like you really need to rest. Have you been working overtime while I was away?"
Gu Tingzhi sat up, leaning against the headboard, holding her hand, his dark eyes filled with a smile, "Yes! Without you by my side, my life has lost its joy, so I spend all my time working. Without you at night, I often can't sleep, so I just get up and continue working, and before I know it, it's dawn!"
"Yanyan, I've really had a hard time without you by my side!"
Meng Fuyan: "..."
That bastard!
I knew he did it on purpose, but I could tell from his condition that he was really working hard, so I couldn't bear to say anything to him.
"I'm back now! Are you still sleepy? Do you want to sleep a little longer? Or, get up and have dinner? It's already dark."
Gu Tingzhi checked the time; it was indeed time to finish eating. He looked at the girl in front of him, his eyes deep and unfathomable, without saying a word.
Meng Fuyan frowned. "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Gu Tingzhi suddenly smiled, stood up and said, "It's nothing, I'm going to wash my face."
He went to the bathroom, and Meng Fuyan thought he was just brushing his teeth and washing his face. But when he came out a few minutes later, she found that he had even taken a shower.
She was wearing only a bathrobe, loosely draped over her body, with a large opening at the chest and a belt around her waist, as she lazily walked over.
Water droplets slid down his chest muscles as he held a towel in his hand, drying his wet hair.
Meng Fuyan was taken aback for a moment. Seeing him sit down, she went over and took the towel from his hand. "Let me do it!"
His hair was a bit longer than his previous buzz cut, but it was still a length that dried easily. After wiping it with a dry towel for a while, the moisture on his hair gradually disappeared.
"Have you been in Gangcheng lately? Or did you come here specifically to pick me up?"
Gu Tingzhi remained silent.
"What's wrong? Why are you ignoring me..."
She looked down and saw Gu Tingzhi looking up at her with a deep gaze, flames flickering in his dark eyes.
"You smell so good!" Gu Tingzhi said.
He suddenly reached out, wrapped his arms around her waist, and with a forceful pull, dragged her onto the bed, rolled over, and pinned her down.
"ah!"
Meng Fuyan was startled, then realized that the person was already lying on top of her. "What? Dinner's ready, I'm hungry!"
"I'm hungry too..."
A lingering kiss landed, and he impatiently pulled down her nightgown, pressing her skin against his. His body temperature was intensely hot.
Meng Fuyan called out, "Gu Tingzhi..."
Her breath was hot against my ear, and a slightly hoarse voice came through, "Yanyan, don't you miss me?"
Do you want to?
Of course I want to.
It's been months since we last saw each other, how could I not miss you!
