Chapter 22 Go to bed early



She sat in front of the mirror a little self-deprecatingly and started to take care of her skin. After that, she lifted the quilt and sat on the bed to read a book.

As soon as Mu Jingjue entered the bathroom, the air was filled with mist and the faint fragrance of shower gel she left behind.

He deliberately ignored this moment of beauty and turned the water to warm.

I don’t know what kind of creatures girls are. Why do they shower so hot? It’s enough to burn people’s skin, right?

After he finished washing, he walked out while drying his hair. When he came out, he saw her leaning against the head of the bed reading a book. He paused while drying his hair.

Then moved away again.

He naturally walked to the sofa to the side and sat down. He picked up his phone with his other hand and started replying to his brothers' messages.

Ever since Mu Jingjue came out, Song Ci could no longer concentrate.

She took in his expression just now. She didn't think anything of it at first, but now she suddenly felt that something seemed subtly wrong.

Getting married means sleeping in the same bed, and sleeping in the same bed means skin contact is inevitable, and contact can lead to accidental discharge.

Although she knew that marriage required fulfilling certain obligations and she could not refuse, she still could not accept it psychologically.

Moreover, we have only known each other for a week since we got married. This is too fast.

But there are some hurdles that must be overcome. One can't sleep on the bed and the other on the sofa, she thought.

The two of them didn't speak to each other, and the room was so quiet that they could hear each other's heartbeats.

They all remained silent tacitly, not wanting to speak to break the awkward atmosphere, and didn't know how to get along.

It was almost time to go to bed. Mu Jingjue thought for a moment, put down his phone, started walking towards the bed, lifted the quilt on one side, and lay down.

"Go to bed early." After leaving these words, he slept alone on the side, leaving a large space for her.

Seeing this, Song Ci breathed a sigh of relief.

After a moment, she also put down the book in her hand, turned off the lamp beside her, and lay down on the other side. There was some distance between the two of them, avoiding each other and trying not to touch.

The air was filled with each other's breath, and it suddenly felt a little stuffy, and this floating breath made people feel even more uneasy.

Song Ci didn't dare to move and just lay there, while Mu Jingjue was afraid that she would not relax, so he didn't dare to move and pretended to be asleep.

But she had slept too much during the day, so she was not so sleepy at this moment. She was a little stiff even when lying down. Later, when she saw that there was no movement next to her, she gently turned over and stretched her body.

As soon as I stopped, my mind looked at him uncontrollably.

Looking at his back, he is strong and powerful, and his profile with a mixture of light and dark makes people even more fascinated.

Sure enough, Mr. Mu, who attracted countless women, was as handsome as the rumors said.

No matter how calm she was, she felt a little pleasing to the eye and her mind was shaken at this moment.

What's more, there is a faint scent floating in the air, which is enough to make people lose their minds.

She closed her eyes, cleared her mind, and forced herself to sleep.

What she didn't know was that when she closed her eyes, the person who had originally closed his eyes had now opened his eyes. He was like a wolf in the night, with no sign of falling asleep at all.

Even with his back to her, he could still feel her probing gaze. He wondered what she was going to do. But after a while, she was silent.

When he saw that she had shifted her gaze, he quietly opened his eyes, not daring to disturb her for fear of scaring her.

He usually sleeps very little and usually goes to bed very late. If she hadn't been there tonight, perhaps he would still be busy working at this hour?

What's more, there was a person of the opposite sex next to him at the moment, which made it impossible to ignore him. Even if Mu Jingjue had good self-control, he still couldn't fall asleep.

Later, he didn't know how much time had passed, but just when he was daydreaming and feeling a little sleepy, an arm suddenly fell around his waist.

Mu Jingjue was startled and quickly turned his head to find that the culprit was the person next to him. He looked over and made sure that she was asleep, then he breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that Song Ci had fallen asleep in a daze and was completely unaware at the moment.

He looked at her face carefully and found that she was indeed asleep. He carefully put her hand beside him. But within a few seconds, she put her arms around his waist again and hung her feet on it.

After several attempts, Mu Jingjue failed to move and had no choice but to let her hold him. He took a nap in the early morning, got up early in the morning, took a cold shower, and then went out.

It was noon, Song Ci stretched his body, sat up and found that he was the only one left in the room.

She looked at herself occupying most of the bed, and she was not fully awake for a moment, and didn't realize what was going on.

She belatedly looked at the seats next to her. No way, she was taking up so many seats?

I didn't do anything out of the ordinary last night, did I?

She thought about her sleeping position and said affirmatively, there must be no such thing, after all, she was fine when she slept alone.

She was also surprised that, apart from falling asleep late on the first night, she actually slept so soundly and didn't wake up until ten o'clock.

After she finished washing up, she yawned and went downstairs.

When grandma saw her like this downstairs and her grandson's sleep-deprived look in the morning, she and Aunt Yang couldn't help but smile knowingly.
