Taking advantage of the fact that the next day was Sunday, Chu Li stayed awake all night - she tried several times to break free from the man's control and return to her own room, but every time she moved, she was subject to further control. After receiving a series of promises and threats such as "I'll open cans for you tomorrow", "I'll buy you a grilled chicken tomorrow", and "I'll shave all your hair if you move again", Chu Li realized that Zhe Chuan treated her as a fool and Er Gouzi as a pillow.
...I don't know how Ergouzi can bear the feeling of urgency when the other person leans on him like an octopus with all his hands and feet together when he sleeps at night.
And the first ceremony.
Twenty-two years later, she, a woman who had never properly held a man's hand, not even holding hands when crossing the street in elementary school, slept in a man's arms for a whole night.
Chu Li turned over, raised her forehead and rubbed the man's chin: "Teacher... Teacher... Zhuchuan?"
Zhuchuan closed his eyes and slept soundly: unlike Jiang Yucheng, who would jump around the world after drinking, Zhuchuan was the low-key type who would go to sleep after getting drunk.
Chu Li stretched out her fingertips and touched the tip of the man's tall nose like a thief. In her sleep, the man frowned, waved his big hand and slapped her hand away. After lowering his hand, he pressed it on her waist and pressed it lightly. Chu Li let out an "ah" and was easily picked up in his arms...
Her legs were hooked up and her belly was pressed against his abdominal muscles.
This posture...
With every breath he took, she could feel his abdominal muscles pressing against her belly.
Her face suddenly turned red, and she quickly covered her face with both hands. After a moment, she realized that he was asleep and couldn't see her, so she put her hands down, stepped back carefully, and then counted "one, two, three" in her mind and suddenly turned over, facing the man with her back...
A gust of hot wind blew across the back of his neck... Chu Li let out a long sigh.
Next, she really stayed awake all night with her eyes wide open. She simply groped her way to the socket next to Zhuchuan's bed to charge her mobile phone and played with it all night... This situation can be said to be very strange: with her back leaning against the warm and strong chest of a man, she felt particularly at ease and safe, while Chu Li, with her eyes wide open and bloodshot from sleepiness but unable to fall asleep, played with her mobile phone.
After watching some funny videos, Chu Li suddenly had the idea to watch the top three horror movies that he had not dared to watch in recent years but wanted to watch one by one:
Watching "Prometheus", the heroine was lying on her stomach with surgical instruments to dissect the alien in her stomach, and Chu Chuan was humming dishonestly and rubbing her earlobe with his nose tip;
When the heroine pulled the ferocious monster out of her belly, Chu Li's face flushed and her heart was beating like a deer.
When the heroine climbed down from the operating table in pain, covered in blood, Chu Li raised her hand to push away the face pressed against her, but her fingers accidentally touched the man's lips, which were slightly cold and soft...
Chu Li retracted his hand with a "whoosh"——
Staring at my fingertips, my eyes were lifeless as I watched the gore in the horror movie. My heart was pounding, but it was because of another emotion... I didn't know whether I was watching a horror movie or a romance movie.
I spent the whole night like this, and even when I watched The Grudge I had the illusion that "this kid is quite cute".
About five hours later, daybreak arrived.
In winter, the sun always rises later.
After watching the third part of The Grudge, she put down her phone, looked up at the faint morning light coming in through the window curtains, and she let out a long breath as if she was relieved. She turned around, from facing the man with her back to facing him, and the other party's iron-like hand was still on her waist...
"Teacher," Chu Li called softly, "Teacher, it's dawn."
Zhuchuan opened his eyes dazedly.
Shut up at the beginning.
Zhuo Chuan looked at her with doubt, then he took his hand that had been on her waist all night, hesitated, and then put it down again - his big hand rubbed her waist through her pajamas, and the man's sleepy eyes finally found a trace of clarity in the confusion...
There was silence for a few seconds.
Chu Li could feel the man who was originally close to her suddenly gasp for air, and the whole person bounced back like a shrimp - it was hard for a bed to be so big that he could slide back perfectly. The man hugged the quilt with a horrified look on his face and stared at her: "What are you doing!"
In that hoarse voice was the genuine fear of being taken advantage of.
Chu Li had already used up all the "whats the f*ck" in her heart last night. Now she was calm. She got up, ruffled her messy short hair with her white and round fingertips, raised her eyelids and glanced at the man, and announced: "Nothing, we slept last night."
Zhuchuan's eyes widened in horror.
Chu Li yawned, pulled his phone off the charging cable, and jumped out of bed: "You are really restless when you sleep, moving around all the time. You kept me awake all night..."
Zhuchuan widened his bell-like eyes in horror.
It's really hard for him, as a man with single eyelids and small eyes... Sometimes, when looking from a distance, a nearsighted person would think that he has four eyebrows on his face - now his eyes are bigger than Zhao Wei's.
Chu Li stood on the carpet beside the bed, her toes deeply buried in the soft carpet. She moved her toes: "Do you remember what you promised me last night?"
The man hugging the quilt took a breath of cold air: "………………………………………………I said I would marry you?! Well, it’s not that I go back on my word, but my household registration booklet is still locked in my mother’s dressing table in my hometown. It’s my parents’ order and the matchmaker’s words…"
Chu Li took a step forward and walked out the door.
Zhuo Chuan hugged the quilt, with a pair of eyes peeking out from behind the quilt, staring intently at her snow-white arms and small feet outside her nightgown. The edge of the white nightgown rolled like a wave, revealing a small section of her ankle that was just right...
I feel calmer now.
I actually had this ridiculous idea: "I might as well marry her, it seems I won't die."
At this time, the girl standing by the door stopped, opened the door, turned around and looked at him, and said coldly: "You didn't say you wanted to marry me last night, and I didn't say I wanted to marry you. This night in bed was purely an accidental encounter, and we didn't do anything. Congratulations on maintaining your virginity that you have treasured for 28 years..."
Zhaochuan twitched the corners of his lips and was about to retort, but in the face of Chu Li's all-seeing gaze that said "Please start your performance", he could only shut his mouth in disappointment.
"What I just said was to remind you of the promise you made to me last night. Now the novella serialized on Weibo is mine."
Zhuchuan: “…”
Oh my God, work, work, work. Why is this person such a bummer? His mind is full of work. You’ve fucking married to work—Zhu Chuan thought subconsciously in his mind.
Chu Li: "I'll come back on Monday night to show you the contract."
Zhuochuan hugged the quilt and said nothing.
Chu Li raised her hand and put down the loose hair pinned beside her ear to cover her slightly red earlobe. She lowered her eyes to hide the emotions in her eyes with her long eyelashes, reached out, and placed her slightly trembling hand on the door handle...
"That's right."
"?"
"… The Grudge isn't scary at all, neither is the author nor the screenwriter. It's because you guys are getting less and less serious that this kind of thing is being hailed as a classic, right?"
"??????????"
Early in the morning, he was attacked based on his personal ability, and the entire industry was implicated. Zhaochuan was confused, but when he looked into the dark eyes of the girl at the door——
The usual sharp tongue has disappeared.
I dare not even fart.
Chu Li glared at him, pressed down with her wrist to open the door, and was about to walk out when she smelled a strong aroma of coffee. Her heart skipped a beat.
When she looked up, she saw Jiang Yucheng leaning against the door with a cup of coffee in his hand. He tilted his head and looked at her with a smile, his tone calm as if he was discussing today's weather: "If The Grudge isn't scary, then what about The Vanishing Amusement Park? If you want to attack Joon-hwan, you have to compare him with The Lord of the Rings. Horror and suspense can't excite him."
Chu Li: “………………………………Today it will be cloudy and turn to heavy rain, with the highest temperature being 12°.”
Chu Li's hand trembled, and she slapped the door she had just opened back on her idol's face.
The moment the door was closed, she turned around with a pale face and leaned her back against the door, as if there was a flood or a monster just outside the door.
