I had a dreamless night, as if it was morning when I opened my eyes.
It was a rare occasion that I woke up and found Song Heng still sleeping next to me. In the past, when I opened my eyes, I could only see Xiaotao and Xiaocui standing in the room, and the bright sunlight filled the entire room.
Song Heng slept on his side facing me, and I was comfortably held in his arms. The room was not as bright as usual, and Song Heng had not left for court yet, which meant it was still early.
I carefully raised my head to look at his face, as if it was the first time I saw him so closely and clearly—
He has thick eyebrows, and the shape of his eyebrows seems to be carefully trimmed. Just by looking at him quietly, you can imagine his face, either frowning or chuckling; his eyelashes are long but not curled, and paired with his thin lips that rarely smile to outsiders, he looks even more noble and awe-inspiring.
An idea suddenly popped into my mind: Why did we agree to a one-year period last night? Why does it take so long?
Suddenly, he realized that his thoughts were as wild as a wolf and a tiger. He quickly looked away, buried his head and swallowed quietly.
After calming down, I raised my head and continued to look at him, constantly reminding myself to be calm, sober, pure-hearted, and to maintain my image. When he was asleep, he had a temperament that was completely different from when he was awake on weekdays, just like - a well-behaved baby.
Song Heng breathed neither hurriedly nor slowly, did not toss and turn, and did not talk in his sleep. Everything around him seemed to become especially quiet and peaceful because of him.
My hand unconsciously stretched out from the quilt and carefully reached towards his cheek. When it was almost close, I became a little nervous, so I retracted the other fingers and only extended one finger, and lightly poked his face.
After poking him, I quickly withdrew my hand. Looking at him still sleeping motionlessly, the corners of my mouth curled up slightly, and I poked him again - it was soft.
I feel happy and envious that a man has such good skin.
I stared at my fingers intently, and with a sneaky thought I stretched out my thumb again, wanting to gently pinch Song Heng's face.
But I was also worried that the pinching would be too loud and would wake up Song Heng. I looked at his closed eyes, his body rising and falling in an orderly manner, and he was still sleeping soundly.
I moved my hand closer, feeling somewhat uneasy, whether out of guilt or for some other reason. I looked at his eyes again, and they were still quietly closed as before.
I pursed my lips and looked into the room again. It was brighter now. It wouldn't be a big disturbance to Song Heng if he woke up at this time.
Immediately I frowned again. Disturbing him was one thing, but being caught by him on the spot seemed even more embarrassing.
I felt my hand, suspended in the air, grow stiff. Finally, I gritted my teeth, reluctantly retracted my hand, and crawled under the quilt, comforting myself: two pokes were enough, I'd already earned something. Well, that's it...
Being content is a blessing, being content is the key to happiness. One should not be greedy and should not...
I was comforting myself when I suddenly felt Song Heng move slightly. I thought he was awake, but when I looked up, I saw that he still had his eyes closed, but he was frowning.
It was this action that made him lower his head a little, and his face was closer to me...
Isn’t this “inducing crime”!
Before I had time to think about what "inducing crime" meant, this idea popped into my mind, and the next second my conflicting emotions became even stronger.
I always feel that this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is fleeting and will be gone if I don’t grab it.
I stared longingly at Song Heng, the Creator's darling, and felt like the two villains were about to fight in my head.
After much hesitation, I finally hardened my heart and lowered my head.
Let Song Heng have a good rest. The war is tense and the government affairs are busy, but he still takes time to care about my condition. Let him sleep as much as possible.
I lowered my head and thought about sleeping a little longer, but suddenly the hand I placed under the quilt was held by a warm and strong hand, and then it was easily pulled out of the quilt, and then - pressed on Song Heng's face!
But in an instant, I looked up at the person in front of me with my mouth wide open. His eyes were half open, and he seemed to be still a little sleepy. His voice was a little hoarse as if he had just woken up: "Shuang'er, it turns out that you-"
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, but the teasing tone in his words could not be concealed.
"You you you you you you--" I felt like thousands of words were coming to my lips. I even forgot what it felt like to be patted on the face by Song Heng. I just stared at the person in front of me and stammered. I said "you" for a long time but couldn't come up with any further words.
"So timid." He chuckled, his eyes, which had just woken up, were a little tender and lazy, completely different from the cold and noble look when he was awake.
"I, then, you, this isn't—" My tongue was almost tied up by myself, but I couldn't say anything. Suddenly, I suddenly realized something, and I gained a bit of momentum: "You, you are pretending to sleep!"
His dark eyes were already open, and his slender eyelashes fluttered gently: "Then why are you secretly-"
He dragged out his words and deliberately left the rest of the story unsaid. I naturally knew what he was going to say - wasn't it just a secret poke at his face? Okay, twice.
The momentum that I had just "rubbed" against him weakened a bit, and I quietly pulled back my hand that was still covering his face. He did not stop me and still looked at me with a faint smile.
"Okay, I admit it," I, Mu Chenshuang, said boldly, "I did poke you in the face twice."
"But then, in order to let you rest more," I tried to save my image, but my voice unconsciously lowered: "Didn't I stop arguing with you..."
He blinked slightly. "You woke me up the first time you poked me."
"Huh?" I suddenly felt guilty: "Sorry."
