The moonlight was bright, and Xie Yanbei didn't know how to speak when the words came to his lips.
When I opened the door, the room was as tidy as I remembered.
There was only one bed in the whole room, right next to the window, so you could clearly see the moon outside.
Next to the window is a desk with legs of different lengths, supported by stones underneath, and on top of it is a very old-fashioned desk lamp.
She tiptoed into the yard and saw a small house next door.
The lights inside were off, probably because Xie Yanbei's mother had just fallen asleep.
It was not until later that Ji Qingzhou found out that his mother-in-law Ye Lanqing had suffered from Alzheimer's disease in his previous life.
At that time, no one knew about this disease, nor did they know how terrible it was in the middle and late stages of the disease.
Fortunately, my mother-in-law’s condition is not too serious now. She may not recognize Xie Yanbei occasionally, but she is mostly conscious.
Taking another look at this small but cozy little house, Ji Qingzhou became even more determined.
Even if it takes a little longer and is more troublesome, Xie Yanbei and my mother-in-law must be cured.
Seeing Ji Qingzhou standing in front of the door without going in, Xie Yanbei felt a moment of panic in his heart. He placed one hand stiffly on the door frame.
"My family isn't well off, and this is all I have right now. You can sleep on the bed, and I'll sleep on the floor."
As he spoke, he was about to go forward to get the quilt.
Ji Qingzhou had already gone in ahead of her. She deliberately moved lightly and spoke in a lower voice.
"It's cool at night. It's winter now. This bed is big enough for the two of us. You can sleep on it too."
Ji Qingzhou had already started to spread the quilt. After she finished speaking, she felt something was wrong and her face turned red.
She held her face with both hands, which was a little hot.
A single man and a single woman were in the same room, and no matter how she listened to it, her words just now seemed like an active invitation.
But God is my witness, she definitely didn't mean anything else.
Xie Yanbei was stunned for a moment. He stared at Ji Qingzhou for a long time, feeling that this moment was too beautiful to be real.
He never dared to think that Ji Qingzhou would one day take the initiative to ask to marry him, and with such a serious look on her face. Even though she knew that he came from a poor family, she didn't show any disgust.
The smile that had just risen on Xie Yanbei's lips faded when he thought about it.
He can no longer return to the army and will most likely be trapped here for the rest of his life.
But Ji Qingzhou comes from a wealthy family, she still has a lot of youth to her, and her future is bright, so he can't selfishly keep her by his side.
Ji Qingzhou understood what he meant immediately and pretended to be angry, "I don't feel embarrassed, you keep making excuses, so you don't like me?"
Xie Yanbei wanted to say something but stopped himself, and all his words were finally crushed by his deep gaze.
How come he doesn't like it?
He loved it to death.
But after a brief period of happiness, he had to face reality.
Without giving him a chance to speak, Ji Qingzhou curled her lips like a female gangster: "It's too late! I don't care what you say!"
"Even if you don't like me, it's useless. I told you about our relationship in front of so many people today. You didn't clarify it then, so now you have to be responsible for me!"
The little girl in front of him put her hands on her hips and glared at him angrily, leaving Xie Yanbei speechless.
After an unknown amount of time, Ji Qingzhou seemed to hear the man sigh helplessly, with a hint of regret and compromise in his expression.
He said, "It's getting late, go to bed early."
After saying that, Xie Yanbei took a step forward, picked up the bedding next to him, and was about to sleep on the floor.
Ji Qingzhou grabbed his quilt and said, "The floor is too cold. Your legs are not in good condition. Just sleep on the bed."
She was determined and looked at Xie Yanbei with burning eyes.
She couldn't care less about anything else than his body.
Xie Yanbei was tense all over. He could hardly control himself if she got a little closer to him. How could they sleep together?
He chose to continue sleeping on the floor.
There was only a mattress on the floor, a thin layer of cotton.
Ji Qingzhou was angry: "I told you the floor is cold, do you still want your leg to heal? I'm a doctor, you have to listen to me. If you insist on sleeping on the floor, then I will sleep on the floor."
After she finished speaking, she made the quilt on the bed and was about to take Xie Yanbei's quilt again.
There are only two quilts in this room, and Xie Yanbei took them out because the weather was quite cold.
The house was not as good as the newly built youth cadre center, and Xie Yanbei felt that Ji Qingzhou was being wronged, so of course he refused to let her sleep on the floor.
"You are weak, so I'll do it."
Ji Qingzhou bit his lip and said, "I've never seen someone as stubborn as you! If you don't sleep on the bed, then I won't sleep on the bed either."
She tried to grab the quilt on the ground in a fit of anger and didn't notice what was behind her.
The next second——
"ah……"
Ji Qingzhou accidentally stepped on the edge of the bed with his right foot.
She fell onto the bed along with the quilt.
Ji Qingzhou's hair was a little messy and his clothes were a little wrinkled on the bed.
She frowned slightly, her skin was snow-white, and her fleeting cry was charming and attractive.
Xie Yanbei's throat felt inexplicably dry, and his eyes grew gloomier.
He didn't know what kind of feelings Ji Qingzhou had for Jiang He.
Although he didn't know why she suddenly fell in love with him, a useless man, he was willing to do it no matter what she wanted.
It’s just that in relationships, it’s inevitable that women are the ones who are most vulnerable.
Xie Yanbei was worried that Ji Qingzhou would be taken advantage of by him and suffer a loss, so he kept restraining himself.
But his self-control actually made Ji Qingzhou misunderstand that he didn't like her? !
Seeing the girl's eyes misted with tears, Xie Yanbei suddenly leaned over the bed and pressed on her.
Ji Qingzhou felt her body sink and her breathing paused.
She saw the man's hand resting on the pillow beside her ear, looking down at her condescendingly.
The man's face showed a hint of forbearance and restraint, as if he had been suppressing it for a long time.
This familiar position instantly brought back countless ear-burning nights to Ji Qingzhou's mind.
A familiar and hoarse voice of a man sounded in my ears.
"Qingzhou, I am a normal man. If you still don't understand, I'll just tell you straight away—"
"I'm not a gentleman. If I sleep in the same bed with you, it's hard for me to guarantee that nothing will happen."
Xie Yanbei's eyes were very dark. In the endless darkness, his pupils were stained with straightforward desire, and he endured it until his eyes turned red.
Ji Qingzhou was a little nervous. She clenched her hands together and sweat came out of her palms.
How could she still look as fierce as before?
In this kind of matter, she has always been afraid of Xie Yanbei, a man with strong energy and ability, so she gave in on the spot.
Ji Qingzhou grabbed Xie Yanbei's clothes tightly.
Her voice softened, like a kitten's paw, plucking the man's heartstrings.
"I, of course I know... I'm not a fool!"
Her voice was very low, and as she looked at Xie Yanbei's face, a hint of blush appeared on her ears.
She already liked this person, and the haziness of the late night added some more beautiful filters to him.
He is not the only one trapped in this.
