Qiao Jingjing was very familiar with Lü Meng's night watch skills.
Forced into a corner, Qiao Jingjing had no choice but to walk back to Sun Ce.
Do she and Sun Ce really have to continue in this way?
Qiao Jingjing didn't even know what to call him.
Marquis of Wu?
Now, Sun Ce has been enfeoffed as the Marquis of Wu by the imperial court.
She's so young, only twenty-five years old.
He had already been appointed a general and granted a title, dominating Jiangdong.
In our modern world, this would be completely impossible.
Sun Ce had already taken off his own clothes.
It's already very late tonight because of Qiao Jingjing's antics.
Sun Ce lay down on the bed, on the outer side of the bed.
He's going to sleep.
He gestured for Qiao Jingjing to turn off the light.
Qiao Jingjing wanted to have a proper talk with Sun Ce.
As it turned out, Lord Wu was going to sleep.
Lü Meng was guarding outside the door.
Further away, Sun Yi, who was half-drunk and half-sober, was still kneeling on the ground atoning for his sins.
Inside the house was Sun Wuhou.
In comparison, Brother Sun seemed more approachable.
Following Sun Ce's instructions, Qiao Jingjing extinguished many lamps, leaving only one on the desk.
Sun Ce had already closed his eyes, feigning sleep.
Qiao Jingjing had no choice but to sit down at the desk.
Perhaps the flickering candlelight was too tempting.
Qiao Jingjing had just been holding her chin up and trying to stay awake when her eyelids started to droop.
Her head kept drooping, and she had to forcefully prop it up many times.
Finally, unable to hold on any longer, he collapsed onto the desk.
She told herself to just take a nap.
She only dozed off for a short while before getting up.
Sun Ce still had his eyes closed when he heard Qiao Jingjing's even breathing.
She actually fell asleep?
You've got a really big heart!
Sun Ce had thought of putting a blanket over her or carrying her to bed.
But then I thought, given Qiao Jingjing's personality, she wouldn't fall for that.
Sun Ce simply went to sleep.
Qiao Jingjing slept face down, and no one knew how long she had been sleeping, but her shoulder was aching terribly.
In addition, the autumn chill made her feel cold to the bone.
She opened her eyes.
The room was quiet except for the oil lamp, which was still lit, including Sun Ce sleeping on the bed.
Qiao Jingjing tiptoed to her feet.
She stood on the ground and glanced at Sun Ce's sleeping face.
After glancing at it once, I couldn't help but take another look.
handsome guy!
He's really a handsome guy.
She actually managed to hold back.
This only shows how rational she is.
Qiao Jingjing rubbed her icy hands together to warm them up. Ah, how she longed for a warm blanket.
But she held back.
Qiao Jingjing tiptoed to the door and listened carefully to the sounds outside.
It's so quiet outside.
Qiao Jingjing gently opened the door.
At the same time, both Lü Meng and Ling Tong turned around to look at her.
In the darkness, Qiao Jingjing saw two pairs of very wary eyes, and she awkwardly clung to the door.
"Are you two still awake?"
Lu Meng waved to Qiao Jingjing.
"It's dewy outside, Miss Qiao, aren't you cold?"
After Lu Meng's reminder, Qiao Jingjing remembered that she felt cold to the bone.
"Amon, could you find me a blanket?"
Hearing this quilt.
Lu Meng's face, shrouded in the darkness of night, looked incredibly strange.
The handsome Lord Wu was right there, under the warm, fluffy blankets on his bed.
Does he really need to find her a blanket?
That Miss Qiao is really being pretentious! Didn't she turn around to see who was behind her?
Lü Meng waved his hand.
Just then, a cold wind blew.
Qiao Jingjing was shivering from the wind.
Quickly take a step back and gently close the door.
As she turned around, she bumped her head into someone's chin.
"Ouch!"
Qiao Jingjing realized that the person was Sun Ce, and then covered her mouth.
"Did I wake you up?"
Qiao Jingjing was very self-aware.
Sun Ce reached out and touched Qiao Jingjing's cold shoulder.
At that moment, he also felt that he was quite funny.
From the day he met Qiao Jingjing, she was not a woman he could communicate with using normal thinking.
If I leave her here tonight, she'll freeze to death.
Sun Ce picked Qiao Jingjing up in one go.
It was neither too heavy nor too light; I put it on the bed and casually gave her a blanket.
That blanket is so warm.
Qiao Jingjing covered her hands and feet inside.
Sun Ce had already lain down and casually extinguished the dim lamp on the desk.
Qiao Jingjing was still sitting.
Qiao Jingjing seemed to want to say something in the darkness.
Sun Ce interrupted her first:
"Whether you sleep or not, after tonight you're mine, and they'll all call you sister-in-law."
He uttered these harsh words, enough to sever all the tangled mess in Qiao Jingjing's heart.
Brother Sun is asleep, sleeping with great composure.
They did not cross the 38th parallel.
Qiao Jingjing sat there awkwardly for a while.
Qiao Jingjing thought about it again and again, and all the struggles and entanglements in her heart were truly indescribable.
Speechless.
It's not that she dislikes Sun Ce.
Any normal woman, with normal eyes and normal aesthetic sense.
It takes a lot of courage for her to reject such a capable, charismatic, and handsome young man who has accumulated wealth through his own efforts.
Who can understand that feeling?
She was really afraid of getting herself into a mess.
She also worried that her abilities were limited and she might not be able to keep this nationally renowned, exceptionally handsome man...
