After listening to Jiang Susu's advice, Lin Musheng brought her battle armor and came to Gu Xichen's house.
That evening, the two of them ate together.
Gu Xichen placed a piece of braised fish on Lin Musheng's plate. "After you finish eating, I'll take you home."
Because Lin Musheng initially made a request that they couldn't live together yet, Gu Xichen didn't intend to keep Lin Musheng there.
Moreover, he's gotten used to it now and thinks it's good to take things slowly.
You still need to put in some effort to pursue the girl you like.
Lin Musheng said somewhat tactfully, "But it's already very late." It's alright if she doesn't go back today; is this man some kind of idiot?
She's already said all that, so surely you can understand what she means, right?
Gu Xichen's attitude surprised Lin Musheng. "It's okay, I'll take you back. It's very safe."
Clearly, the man didn't seem to understand what she was saying.
Lin Musheng smiled somewhat awkwardly and continued, "I just think it's a bit troublesome. You take me back, and then you have to come back again. Isn't that a lot of trouble?"
Gu Xichen raised his eyes, looked at Lin Musheng, and said sincerely, "Why would it be troublesome to give something to my own girlfriend?"
Judging from this statement alone, one might think that Gu Xichen is a very good man.
But in Lin Musheng's eyes, this man was just a fool.
How could he not even understand what she was saying?
Gu Xichen was also deep in thought, wondering why Lin Musheng would say such strange things today.
Was this woman testing him? That's why she said that on purpose?
As a boyfriend, of course he would take his girlfriend home.
Is this little woman testing his attitude?
Gu Xichen observed Lin Musheng's expression, hoping that his answer would satisfy Lin Musheng.
Lin Musheng, however, looked at Gu Xichen with a helpless expression and a dark expression on her face.
"What I mean is, I'm actually okay with staying. I can stay at your place tonight." Lin Musheng put it more bluntly, hoping that Gu Xichen would understand what she meant.
Gu Xi paused for a moment, unsure of what Lin Musheng meant.
What does it mean to say that staying overnight is acceptable?
Could this be a test for him?
Let's see if he can resist the temptation.
Gu Xichen declined, saying, "Isn't that a bit inappropriate? Didn't you say that relationships should be taken slowly? We're just boyfriend and girlfriend now, so we should keep our distance. I think it would be more appropriate for me to take you home."
Gu Xichen's words instantly petrified Lin Musheng.
What's wrong with this man? She's explained herself so clearly, why can't he understand?
Lin Musheng said somewhat angrily, "Gu Xichen, I'm your girlfriend now. Can't I even stay at your house for one night? Don't I even have that right? Or have you changed your mind and fallen for another woman?"
Why did she feel that this man was even more clueless than she was?
Gu Xichen quickly explained, "No, I didn't mean that. If you want to stay, of course you can." How could he not be happy that this little woman wanted to stay?
He just found it a little strange. Didn't this little woman used to keep her distance from him when they were dating?
What's going on now?
Lin Musheng's behavior left Gu Xichen somewhat bewildered.
"That's more like it. Since you have no objections, I'll stay here tonight." Lin Musheng lowered her head and ate a mouthful of rice, her eyes still filled with resentment.
She felt that Gu Xichen was really clueless.
She's already been so direct, how could this man not understand?
Lin Musheng was somewhat skeptical, after all, Gu Xichen had initially said he wanted to live with her.
The attitudes are different now.
"Then I'll arrange a room for you. You can stay here with me tonight."
Lin Musheng looked up and said, "No, I want to sleep in the same room as you."
If the two of them lived separately, how could she possibly have a chance?
Gu Xichen's shocked pupils widened instantly. "Mu Sheng, are you kidding me? If you're like this, I'll take it seriously."
Is this little woman just teasing him?
Why would they be so proactive?
Lin Musheng blinked, smiled with that harmless face, and said, "I'm not joking with you. Tonight, I'm going to sleep in the same room as you."
Gu Xichen could hardly believe his ears, and even more so, he couldn't believe that Lin Musheng had said those words.
"Don't make a fuss. I'm your girlfriend. Can't I even sleep in the same room as you?" She's not a guest. Why should we prepare a separate room for her?
Moreover, she came here today to complete a task; otherwise, how could she explain it to Jiang Susu?
Gu Xichen nodded, "Of course, as long as my girlfriend likes it, she can sleep with me anytime."
He never had the chance to sleep in the same room with this little woman before, but now that she's come to him, how could he not seize the opportunity?
Lin Musheng was a little embarrassed and continued eating with her head down, while Gu Xichen didn't say anything more.
After dinner, Gu Xichen took Lin Musheng to his room.
"I've prepared pajamas for you. You can go take a shower first. I'm going to the study to handle some documents and will be back in the room later."
"Okay, I understand."
After giving his instructions, Gu Xichen left the room.
Lin Musheng looked at Gu Xichen's room; it was clean and tidy, and it made people feel very comfortable.
Without thinking about anything else, she took the pajamas she had prepared and went to the bathroom.
About twenty minutes later, Lin Musheng changed her clothes and put on a black lace nightgown.
She was still wrapped in a bath towel.
It was mainly because it was a bit too see-through, which made her feel a little embarrassed.
Even though Gu Xichen hadn't returned yet, she felt embarrassed to dress like this.
Jiang Susu said this method would work, which made Lin Musheng hesitate for a moment.
After drying her hair, Lin Musheng lay down in bed, still wrapped in the white bath towel.
She had never worn clothes like this before, and now she felt very uncomfortable in these pajamas.
Lin Musheng's mind was racing; she had no idea how to face Gu Xichen in a moment.
This dress is so sheer, it's just a thin layer of gauze, you can see all your private parts.
How could she possibly show this to Gu Xichen?
