Chapter 81 Is she... starting to like Ji Huaishen?
After the doctor left, the living room fell silent again.
Wen Duo sat on the sofa with her head lowered, her fingers unconsciously twisting the edge of her nightgown. She could feel Ji Huaishen's gaze on her, heavy and making her cheeks hot.
It's best to have someone accompany you at night.
The doctor's words echoed in her mind.
Then...will Ji Huaishen have to stay with her forever?
The thought made her heart beat faster, like a deer running around in her chest.
She raised her eyes quietly and met Ji Huai's deep gaze, then hurriedly lowered her eyes, not wanting him to notice the...expectation in her eyes.
"Does it still hurt?" Ji Huaishen suddenly asked, his voice much lower than usual, as if he had deliberately lowered his tone.
Wen Duo was startled by his voice and subconsciously touched the wound on her forehead with her fingers.
"Don't touch it." Ji Huaishen grabbed her wrist and said softly.
"Oh..." she answered softly.
Ji Huaishen looked at Wen Duo and thought she was in pain, so he turned to the housekeeper and ordered:
"Go get an ice pack."
"yes."
The housekeeper left immediately and returned a short while later with an ice pack wrapped in a towel.
Ji Huaishen took the ice pack and sat down next to Wen Duo, causing the sofa to sink slightly.
He leaned so close that Wen Duo could even feel the heat from Ji Huaishen.
Wen Duo was overwhelmed by his sudden approach and instinctively wanted to move back a little to keep the distance that made her heart beat faster.
"Don't move."
His voice was a little stern, and at the same time, one hand gently held the back of her head, forcing Wenduo to move closer to him.
The warmth of the palm came through the hair, making Wen Duo stiffen all over.
Ji Huaishen used his other hand to apply the ice pack to the injured area on her forehead, his movements incredibly gentle.
The cold touch made Wen Duo shrink subconsciously, but Ji Huaishen's hand held her head firmly, not allowing her to refuse but extremely gentle.
"It won't hurt soon." Ji Huaishen's voice softened, as if to soothe.
Wen Duo only felt his voice close at hand, and his warm breath brushed against her nose, making her feel itchy...
Her gaze was forced to fall on Ji Huaishen's Adam's apple, watching it roll gently as he spoke.
Further down, the collar of his shirt was unbuttoned with two buttons, revealing a small part of his strong chest.
When Wen Duo thought about the comments about the bust size exceeding 100cm, she felt her face was so hot that she could fry an egg on it.
She didn't dare look directly at Ji Huaishen, but she had no way to move away, so she could only stare at her fingers in a daze.
Ji Huaishen seemed to notice her discomfort and gently rubbed his thumb behind her ear, as if soothing a frightened animal.
"Relax," he whispered. "It will be fine soon."
Somehow this made Wenduo even more nervous.
She blinked her eyes, feeling a little dry, and rubbed them with her hand.
"Are you sleepy?" Ji Huaishen's voice sounded above his head, with a hint of imperceptible concern.
"Yes... a little bit..."
Wenduo seized the opportunity and yawned pretending to be sleepy.
But after yawning like this, I really feel a little sleepy.
Ji Huaishen glanced at his watch:
"It's three in the morning now, I can still sleep a little longer."
Wenduo nodded sleepily, but the doctor's suggestion came to her mind.
Anyway, they are husband and wife, so it’s normal for them to sleep together!
She encouraged herself in her heart.
Yes, that's normal!
Her best friend said that Ji Huaishen is a reserved person, so she has to be more proactive to avoid the fate of being a sadistic person!
"That..." Wen Duo mustered up the courage to speak, but was interrupted by Ji Huaishen.
"The doctor said I need to pay attention to your safety. I'll sleep on the floor in your room tonight."
After Ji Huaishen finished speaking, he turned around and told the housekeeper to get bedding and make the bed.
Wen Duo opened her mouth, but swallowed back the words "We can sleep in bed together", which turned into an inaudible sigh.
"Okay, okay..." Since Ji Huaishen said so, she had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Ji Huaishen had no idea what he had missed.
"Um."
He stood up, his tall figure looming over her, then bent down:
"It's so late, you can't see clearly, I'll carry you up."
"Okay..." Wen Duo was really a little sleepy, so she didn't try to be brave.
She obediently opened her arms and hugged Ji Huaishen's neck.
Ji Huaishen picked her up gently, and Wen Duo could feel the strong muscles in his arms.
He walked up the stairs steadily, pushed the door open with one hand, and did not put Wen Duo directly on the bed. Instead, he continued to hold her and watched the servants spread the bedding on the floor.
Wen Duo nestled obediently in Ji Huaishen's arms, her cheek against his chest, and could hear his strong heartbeat.
The rustling sound of the bed being made came from behind her, and her heartbeat was like a drum, which was particularly clear in the quiet room.
Although we are not lying in the same bed, but...
This was the first time she agreed to let Ji Huaishen stay in the room while she was conscious.
Wen Duo felt her face getting hot again.
but.......
Wen Duo felt Ji Huaishen's embrace.
His embrace is so comfortable...
The servant quickly made the bed, and Ji Huaishen reluctantly put the person in his arms onto the bed.
His movements were extremely gentle, as if he was holding some fragile treasure. He did not slowly release his arms until he was sure that Wen Duo was safely sinking into the soft mattress.
"Call me if you need anything." Ji Huaishen stood beside the bed and said to Wen Duo.
"Yeah." She responded vaguely, quickly got into bed, buried half of her face in the quilt, leaving only a pair of bright eyes exposed.
Ji Huaishen's Adam's apple rolled at her shy look.
I really want to sleep with my arms around his sweet and soft little wife.
But........
It's good enough that he can stay.
Thinking of this, he turned around, lifted the quilt on the ground, and lay down in it.
The room fell silent, leaving only the sound of the two people breathing.
Wenduo opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling.
The strange thing is that I was so sleepy that I kept yawning downstairs just now, but now lying on the soft bed, my mind is unusually clear.
Especially when she realized that Ji Huaishen was lying less than two meters away from her, her heart felt like it was equipped with a small motor, beating non-stop.
She quietly turned sideways and looked at the floor in the faint moonlight.
Ji Huaishen lay on his side with his back to her, the quilt casually covering only his waist. His black pajamas were wrinkled because of his sleeping posture, revealing a thin waist and faintly visible muscle lines.
Will you feel cold if you sleep on the floor without covering yourself with a blanket?
This thought suddenly popped into Wen Duo's mind.
Then she froze, her cheeks burning.
Why does she think so?
Why are you suddenly worried about Ji Huaishen?
This wasn't something she, at least not her old self, would consider.
An even more shocking thought struck her.
Is she...starting to like Ji Huaishen?
This realization made Wenduo's heart almost jump out of his chest.
She suddenly turned over, facing away from Ji Huaishen, and hugged the pillow on the bedside tightly in her arms, as if this could suppress her chaotic thoughts.
Go to sleep, don’t think too much!
She ordered herself in her heart.
But the brain is out of control.
She thought again, after she fell asleep, would Ji Huaishen secretly climb onto the bed and hug her like he did that rainy night?
Ji Huaishen's embrace is much more comfortable than a pillow...
Even if he climbed into bed now, she would not refuse...
Wen Duo: “!!!”
She opened her eyes suddenly, startled by her own bold idea.
What is she thinking about!
She was actually expecting Ji Huaishen to climb into her bed!
When did she become so...
Are you so shameless?
It must have been infected by Ji Huaishen!
Wen Duo made a lame excuse for herself in her heart.
The early morning hours were already hard to bear, and Wen Duo's eyelids became heavier and heavier as she kept thinking about all these random things.
Soon, she fell asleep in a daze.
