Qiao Nansheng suddenly remembered this: she had wanted to stay at Zhong Xuelian's house for the night because she didn't want to share a room with Zhou Cheng since he was back, but...
Having already received a bracelet worth 100 million and an anklet worth 3 million, it doesn't seem right to go back to them.
Qiao Nansheng bit her lip. "What did you say?"
“Oh, I was saying,” he drawled, speaking slowly, “I said your husband is back, so you can’t go.”
"..."
Qiao Nansheng's face flushed red. "Is this how you introduce yourself to people?"
Zhou Cheng exclaimed, "Shouldn't I introduce it like this?"
"..."
“We’re already married. If it were a man calling and I didn’t introduce you like this, would you really be planning to go?” he asked, his tone gradually hardening.
Even through the door, Qiao Nansheng could sense a subtle change in his emotions.
She quickly said, "No, no, no, that's not what I meant. Your introduction was excellent, fantastic, very good!!!"
Zhou Cheng snorted, said nothing, turned around and walked to the window, put his phone on the bedside table, went to the dressing room next door to find a set of pajamas, and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
Qiao Nansheng didn't dare to take her time washing up anymore. Zhou Cheng had already come up, which meant that it was almost time to go to sleep!
She didn't want to sleep in the same room as him.
She quickly got out of the bathtub, picked up the showerhead, rinsed herself off in a few quick rinses, changed into her pajamas, and went out. Zhou Cheng wasn't there.
Qiao Nansheng picked up her phone, hugged her pillow, turned around and went out to sleep in the guest room.
As soon as he stepped out, he bumped into Zhou Cheng, who was coming out of the guest room across the street.
The two stood at the doorway, gazing at each other in silence.
Zhou Cheng glanced at the pillow in her hand. "Where are you going?"
Qiao Nansheng felt a little embarrassed. She hugged her pillow tightly, coughed lightly, and said, "Go to sleep. This room is yours. I slept here when you weren't here. I'll give it back to you when you come back."
As she spoke, she moved to the side, trying to sneak away.
Zhou Cheng reached out and grabbed her hand. "Sleep here."
Qiao Nansheng: "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
Zhou Cheng released her, glanced at her, and said, "I'm not asking you to fulfill any marital obligations with me, so what's wrong with that?"
"..." That really hit the nail on the head.
"Just sleeping?" she asked, her big eyes shining as she looked at him, her face saying, 'You're not kidding me, are you?'
Zhou Cheng inexplicably thought of the old man's dog. Every time he went back, the dog would look at him with bright, sparkling eyes. The difference was that the dog wanted food, but this guy in front of him... was just wondering whether to simply sleep.
He was silent for a moment, then reached out and ruffled Qiao Nansheng's hair, humming in agreement, "Just sleeping."
Qiao Nansheng blinked, still somewhat skeptical.
But Zhou Cheng had already said so much, and the two were husband and wife. If she insisted on sleeping in the guest room, it might cause a lot of trouble.
So she hugged her pillow, turned around, and went back to bed.
Fortunately, the bed was big enough that the two of them lay down and each occupied one side, with a space between them that was about the size of a person.
To prevent herself from moving around and crossing the boundary while sleeping, Qiao Nansheng placed the pillow vertically in the middle.
After Zhou Cheng lay down, he glanced at the pillow she had placed between the two of them and chuckled disdainfully.
"Do you think putting a pillow here would be of any use if I really wanted to?"
"..."
Qiao Nansheng thought about it and realized that what he said was true, but she was not one to back down and stubbornly said, "What's wrong with me asking for some psychological comfort? Why are you being so nosy!"
"You'd be better off asking me for comfort than seeking solace in your pillow."
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Nansheng felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, and the next second she was pinned down.
