When they got home, Shu Wan cooked and Huo Zhengye helped her.
Shu Wan simply fried two dishes and a soup, then turned off the fire.
"I left early today, and I don't know how grandma is doing." Shu Wan suddenly spoke.
Huo Zhengye took a bite of his rice and continued, "Miaoyue is taking care of grandma, and... Miaoyue probably won't be back tonight."
Huo Zhengye paused, "Can you do it alone?"
Shu Wan was about to nod subconsciously. She had long been accustomed to living alone, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
But when she saw Huo Zhengye's worried black eyes, Shu Wan rolled her eyes and said, "It's terrible."
"You sleep with me tonight."
Huo Zhengye's ears turned red, "I will leave after you fall asleep."
My wife is still pregnant. You can’t touch her. You can’t touch her.
Huo Zhengye repeated this to himself several times before the ambiguous thoughts faded away.
Shu Wan patted the bed and said to the man standing stiffly at the door, "Why are you sitting here so far away from me? Are you afraid that I will eat you?"
Huo Zhengye appeared calm on the surface, but his ears were red.
He walked slowly to the bed. Shu Wan had just finished taking a shower and still had a refreshing smell of soap on her body, which made him even hotter.
Huo Zhengye's Adam's apple rolled, "Go to sleep. I'll wait until you fall asleep before I leave."
Shu Wan uttered an "oh" and opened her eyes wide, looking particularly alert. "I can't sleep."
Huo Zhengye was helpless, "How can I sleep with my eyes open?"
Shu Wan rolled to the other side of the bed with the quilt, poked her head out from under the quilt, and blinked, “You lie down too, or I can’t sleep.”
Huo Zhengye's whole body was tense and his eyes were deep. Does his wife know what he is saying?
The young wife huddled in the quilt, staring at him motionlessly with her big round eyes. Because of her movements, the fullness of her chest was revealed. Huo Zhengye hurriedly looked away.
The scene just now lingered in his mind, and a feeling of heat came over him. Huo Zhengye unbuttoned his collar, and the heat finally dissipated a little.
"Go to bed, I'm sleepy."
The daughter-in-law's sweet voice was heard.
Huo Zhengye simply made up his mind and pulled the quilt up to its highest point. Shu Wan couldn't breathe in the quilt. She made a muffled sound through the thick quilt, "Mr. Huo, are you trying to suffocate me to death?"
Huo Zhengye quickly pulled back the quilt, and Shu Wan stuck her head out, taking deep breaths of fresh air.
The fair little face was stained with a light red, the bright red lips were slightly panting, and the pair of round big eyes were watery, just like...
"I'm going to go out for a moment."
Huo Zhengye said this and opened the door. Soon, the sound of running water could be heard from the shower room.
Shu Wan was puzzled. Why did he suddenly go to take a shower? Wasn’t there no hot water?
Shu Wan didn't think much about it. She felt sleepy and slowly fell asleep.
Huo Zhengye took a cold shower for half an hour before the heat gradually faded away. He came out of the shower with steam in his eyes and looked at Shu Wan's quiet room. He was not sure whether Shu Wan was asleep or not.
After hesitating for a while, he decided to go and take a look.
Huo Zhengye took light and careful steps and slowly approached Shu Wan, just as the door was about to open.
Suddenly, a light flashed in front of my eyes and an angry voice was heard.
"What do you want to do, kid?"
Huo Zhengye was stunned. He turned around and saw Grandma Huo with her hands on her hips. Her usually droopy eyes were wide open. Huo Miaoyue was standing behind Grandma Huo, covering her mouth with her hands in surprise.
"Cousin, what are you doing in Sister Shu Wan's room so late?"
