Xia Xi wrapped herself in the quilt that was stained with Xu Yanfeng's scent and slept for a long time.
She had been suffering from insomnia for the past few days. Even if she fell asleep, it was only a light sleep. The slightest movement would wake her up. Then she would inevitably think of things at home and could no longer fall asleep.
This time she slept very soundly and did not dream. When she woke up, the room was dark and she could not tell whether it was day or night.
Xia Xi lay in bed for a long time before sitting up. Sleeping too long wasn't good. Her body felt limp, she couldn't muster any strength, and her mind was still a little groggy. She sat on the edge of the bed, reaching for her feet, but couldn't find any slippers. So she simply walked barefoot to the window and opened the curtains a little.
It turned out that it was already dark and she had slept the whole afternoon.
Xia Xi turned on the light in the bedroom and saw the slippers next to the stool at the end of the bed. She remembered that before going to bed, she sat on the stool with her knees hugged and was in a daze for a long time.
The door was not closed tightly and there were slight noises outside. Xia Xi held his breath and listened carefully. It seemed that there was someone at home.
Xu Yanfeng is back?
Xia Xi went out in her slippers and realized that the noise came from the direction of the kitchen. She walked over slowly and saw a short-haired aunt standing at the sink cooking with her back to her.
When the aunt heard the footsteps, she turned around and smiled at her naturally: "Are you awake? Did I wake you up?"
Xia Xi shook her head and said, "I slept well."
Auntie scooped up the food from the pot and put it on a plate: "The young master asked me to come over. He will be here in ten minutes."
"Um."
Xia Xi went to the bathroom to wash her face, straightened her messy hair, picked up a hairband, and tied her hair into a low bun. A few strands of hair were scattered, making her look fluffy and beautiful.
After the nanny finished cooking the last dish, Xu Yanfeng just arrived home. Xia Xi heard him open the door and went to greet him.
As soon as Xu Yanfeng opened the door, he saw her standing inside, smiling like a flower. She was wearing a long-sleeved purple printed home dress. The skirt reached her ankles and was loose, and she was swaying in the clothes.
He held her hand and looked her up and down: "I wanted to ask you the last time I saw you, have you lost weight?"
Xia Xi was surprised. She had only lost a few pounds. Could he see it with his naked eyes?
"Ah, I've lost a bit of weight." Xia Xi didn't deny it. She pulled him into the house and took off his coat and tie. Afraid he would overthink it, she explained, "I had a cold before, and my appetite wasn't very good. I kept eating plain porridge, and that's why I lost weight."
Xu Yanfeng said: "Then eat more recently."
"Yeah, I'll listen to you." Xia Xi said with a smile, "I'm not trying to lose weight. If my appetite improves, my weight will naturally go up."
The nanny brought the dishes to the table, took off her apron, said hello to the two of them and left.
To prove that she had taken Xu Yanfeng's words to heart, Xia Xi ate a large bowl of rice and some vegetables. She casually said, "I'm so full." Xu Yanfeng went to the cloakroom to get her a thick coat and took her downstairs for a walk to help digest the food.
There were young people walking their dogs in the neighborhood. A huge Alaskan dog was squatting in the flower bed, sniffing around. Xia Xi asked the dog owner for permission, patted the dog's furry head, and turned to Xu Yanfeng and said, "I want one, too."
Xu Yanfeng was very obedient: "If you want to raise it, then raise it."
"That won't work. If you raise a child, you have to take responsibility. I'm still in school and don't have time to take care of it." Xia Xi returned to his side and held his hand. "You don't have time either."
"Wait until you graduate to raise me."
“I have to work after graduation.”
"There's a nanny at home. The dog will be taken care of by the nanny. You don't have to worry about it."
“…”
Xia Xi frowned: "You wouldn't give birth to a child and leave it to the nanny to take care of, would you?"
She was quite good at making connections. Xu Yanfeng smiled, and when they were far away and there was no one else around, he said softly, "You try."
Xia Xi looked up at him: "Try what?"
Xu Yanfeng also looked at her, tightened his grip on her fingers, and said, "Try giving birth to a child."
Xia Xi was speechless. Usually, when she couldn't gain the upper hand with words, she would switch tactics and resort to violence, like pinching his arm. "You're really getting more and more powerful."
Her strength was like an ant gnawing at him, but Xu Yanfeng didn't even frown. Instead, a deep smile appeared on his lips.
Xia Xi didn't want to leave anymore, so she turned back the way she'd come. Back home, the lights were on, and their faces were clear. Just their glances were like an electric shock. Xia Xi's breathing quickened, telling herself to indulge just this once. She closed her eyes and kissed him, a glint of light flashing across her trembling eyelashes, unseen by anyone.
They were too familiar with each other, and Xu Yanfeng's body instincts were easily awakened. His big hands tightly controlled her back, and every stroke was filled with heavy force and burning temperature.
From the entrance to the room, their hearts had already been beating wildly. Xu Yanfeng forced himself to take a half step back, putting some distance between them. His slightly lowered eyes were filled with love and desire, and his voice was hoarse and husky: "I'm going to take a shower..."
Xia Xi stuck to him, clinging to him and not letting him leave: "I'll stay with you."
The bathroom was destined to be a mess, with water stains all over it.
Xia Xi was carried to the bed. She was wrapped in a bath towel and rolled into the quilt. When Xu Yanfeng lay down beside her, she rubbed into his arms and kissed his eyelids, face and neck with her bright red and moist lips.
There were two times when Xu Yanfeng thought she was tired, but she started making trouble again. His breathing became unstable and he turned his head away from her kiss before he could speak properly: "Aren't you sleepy?"
Xia Xi calmed down a bit, her rosy cheeks pressed against his chest, and her snow-white arms crossed over to hook around his neck: "I slept from lunch to dinner, do you think I was sleepy?"
Xu Yanfeng was amused by her and wanted to laugh, and he really laughed, his chest trembling slightly.
