Ni Tianzhen closed her eyes, preparing to force herself to fall asleep, when suddenly a hand landed on her waist, causing her to stiffen involuntarily.
Then she felt a warm breath blowing on her ears and neck, and her back sank into a slightly hot chest.
Such actions during intercourse usually indicate that the husband wants to have sex.
Normally, she wouldn't refuse; it's her duty as a wife.
But today...
"I'm a little tired." She had never refused his advances before, so this was the first time. She was a little nervous when she refused, and she was also afraid that he would be unhappy.
Liang Xiujie sighed inwardly. So that's the kind of person she thought he was. Even touching her in bed was purposeful.
"I didn't mean that." He pulled his arms closer, bringing their bodies closer together, and said softly, "Just a hug."
Ni Tianzhen was slightly taken aback, her ears turning slightly red; she had actually misunderstood.
But you can't blame her. Even though the air conditioner is on, it's summer now, and there's no need to hold her while sleeping. She's never held her before.
Although she thought this to herself, she didn't say it aloud, her body still feeling a little stiff.
They had never hugged so intimately when they weren't doing *that*, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Liang Xiujie sensed her stiffness. They were husband and wife, yet they were so distant. This couldn't last, so he asked directly, "Don't you like me holding you?"
"No, no." Ni Tianzhen stammered nervously. After she finished speaking, she felt her cheeks burning. It was as if she was saying that she liked him holding her, but her performance was so stiff that it sounded like a lie.
She coughed awkwardly and whispered, "I'm not used to it."
Liang Xiujie chuckled softly, hugged her tighter, and kissed the back of her neck: "Get used to it slowly."
"Oh." After replying, Ni Tianzhen paused for a moment, wondering if this meant she would have to hold him like this often from now on.
Then there was another silence. Being held like that made it even harder for her to fall asleep, but Liang Xiujie's breathing gradually became even.
Ni Tianzhen felt that he had fallen asleep, so she breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed her body.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind: "What's wrong? Something on your mind?"
"You, you're still awake?" Ni Tianzhen froze again.
"Hmm." Liang Xiujie looked at the back of her head and felt awkward, so he simply turned her over to face him, rubbed her stomach, and said, "Is your stomach still uncomfortable?"
Ni Tianzhen shook her head; facing her like this made her even more uncomfortable.
Silence, and more silence.
After a while, Ni Tianzhen looked up at Liang Xiujie and said in a low voice, "Xiao Le and Tuan Tuan had a lot of fun today. He said he also wants a little sister like Xiao Kui."
Liang Xiujie looked at her strangely. Why did she suddenly bring this up? He still remembered that she couldn't have children, so they never used contraception.
“If you hadn’t married me back then, maybe you would have another child now, and you could keep Xiao Le company.” Ni Tianzhen’s words were a test; she wanted to know if he married her because he knew she was infertile and thought it would be convenient.
"Don't talk nonsense." Liang Xiujie thought she was bothered by her inability to have children, so he softened his voice to comfort her: "What does my marriage to you have to do with whether you can have children or not? I just think we can make a good life together."
Hearing him say that, Ni Tianzhen felt a little relieved and gave him a gentle smile.
The two slept soundly through the night without exchanging a word.
