The night was dark outside the window, and the roars of zombies could be heard in the distance. Xihe closed his eyes lightly, and his head gradually became heavy.
Chen Chao: “…”
He looked at the book, then looked at the little face as white as jade under the light, and his expression softened unconsciously.
He put the book down, stood up and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Xihe intently.
The gentleness of his eyes was unbelievable.
After a while, he raised his hand, tucked the loose hair on Xihe's face behind her ears, and slid his fingers to her lips, rubbing them gently.
Xihe: ???
She was almost sleepy, but not asleep yet. What was he doing?
Xihe suddenly opened his eyes, raised his eyes, and looked at Chen Chao with a smile.
There was a silence in the air.
Chen Chao and Xi He looked at each other, his fingers a little stiff. After a while, he leaned over and approached Xi He: "Xi Xi...I won't leave tonight, okay?"
Xihe nodded: "Okay."
Chen Chao's eyes lit up instantly, his joy evident in his expression: "Really?"
Xihe smiled: "Of course it is... true!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he kicked the man off the bed. Xihe lifted the quilt and walked barefoot to Chen Chao. He pulled off the clothes hanging next to him and leaned over to tie Chen Chao's hands.
She patted Chen Chao's face: "You sleep here tonight, good night."
He yawned, crawled back into bed, turned off the light and went to sleep.
It was dark outside and very quiet in the room. They could hear each other's breathing. Chen Chao was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.
"But it's progress, isn't it?"
At least Xixi let him sleep in the room, even though it was on the floor...but next time maybe it would be on the bed!
Shen Chao is very optimistic.
The two slept peacefully that night.
The next day, Xihe woke up and met Chen Chao's gaze as soon as she turned around. She inexplicably felt pitiful.
Turning his neck, Xihe asked casually, "Did you sleep well last night?"
"Comfortable!"
Shen Chao didn't even think about it.
Xihe immediately raised her eyebrows and glanced at him lightly: "Then I'll rent the floor to you."
Chen Chao: ...
"Okay, thank you Xixi."
Chen Chao smiled and said, at worst, we can just climb into bed later.
Seeing that he was actually starting to be shameless, Xihe was speechless and kicked him angrily: "Hurry up and get up!"
She tied it casually without using any force.
Chen Chao immediately tore off his restraints and climbed up.
The two of them packed up and went out. Four pairs of eyes in the living room looked over at them. The adults were the first to react and quickly said, "Are you up? The meal is ready. Go wash your face and eat."
Xihe nodded and turned to go to the bathroom.
Shen Chao immediately followed behind her.
As soon as the two left, the living room suddenly became lively, and Mother Shen excitedly pulled Mother Gu’s hand: “In-laws!”
Mother Gu immediately replied: "Hey!"
Then they all laughed out loud "Hehehe", and couldn't close their smiles.
Father Shen took Father Gu’s hand and said, “Old Gu, when do you think we should hold a wedding for them?”
Without waiting for Father Gu to speak, he began to mutter to himself, "Is the 28th of next month a good date? Hey, isn't that a bit too long? How about the 8th of this month?"
Today is only the 2nd, and the 8th is six days from now...
Father Gu didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, he said excitedly, "I also think next month is too long."
Since the two children live together, it would definitely be better for them to get married early. Anyway, nowadays, we don’t care about the pre-apocalyptic rules. The two families know each other well, so it doesn’t make any difference whether they get married early or late.
