Chapter 111 Sleeping Together
Gu Chenran paused while turning the pages of the book and looked at Wen Ling.
He was originally thinking about what to do with only one bed. He might as well ask someone to bring some more blankets and bedding so that he could sleep on the floor.
He just wanted to sleep on the floor in front of Wen Ling to let her know that his life was not easy.
He never expected that Wen Ling would ask him to go to bed.
Gu Chenran stuttered, "Ah? Let's... go to bed together?"
"What else?" Wen Ling asked back, "Are you really going to sleep on the floor? It's very cold here, and it's easy to get sick if you sleep on the floor. I think you're either sick or you're feeling uncomfortable today."
Gu Chenran carefully observed Wen Ling's expression and found that her face was frank and she had no shyness at all.
His heart moved. Could it be that Wen Ling also has feelings for him? It's just that the timing was wrong to make it clear?
Since Wen Ling said so, why should he be afraid?
He gritted his teeth, closed the book and walked towards the bed. He didn't pay attention. He thought he was very calm, but in fact, he was walking with his hands and feet together.
Wen Ling was still applying facial cream to herself in front of the dressing table. Her body was actually very delicate. In the dry winter weather, if she didn't apply facial cream, her skin would be cracked by the wind.
When the original owner lived that kind of life in the Wen family, she had no facial cream in the winter and her face was covered with frozen streaks.
Even if you have recovered now, if you don't apply it on time every day, it will become red and itchy at the end of the day.
Wen Ling must be treated with caution.
While applying facial cream, she watched Gu Chenran walk towards the bed in a strange posture.
Gu Chenran pulled open the bed curtain and saw the long low chair that served as a partition in the middle of the big bed. He stood there motionless, as if the machine had stopped working, maintaining the posture of pulling open the bed curtain.
No one understood how many ups and downs his mind had gone through in such a short period of time.
Wen Ling had also finished applying facial oil by this time. She walked over quickly and lay directly on the bed.
She patted her phone and said proudly, "Well, I'm smart, aren't I? I put this in the middle so that we can sleep in the same bed without disturbing each other. Besides, the bed is very big, so even if it is separated like this, we still have plenty of space to sleep.
What do you think? Am I smart? ”
Gu Chenran raised the corners of his mouth stiffly: "Smart, too smart, I didn't expect it to be like this."
He really thought Wen Ling was going to sleep with him. Although he didn't show it on his face, it felt like fireworks were exploding in his heart, making his head buzz.
Now it was as if someone had poured cold water on me from beginning to end.
He sighed in his heart, secretly mocking himself for overthinking.
Not to mention that his heart is not normal now and he has two hearts in his chest. Even if he has a normal heart, it will sooner or later be damaged by Wen Ling.
Two people lay on both sides of the low plane, one on the left and one on the right.
Although they were separated, Gu Chenran could still smell the fragrance coming from Wen Ling, which should be the scent of the facial cream she had just applied.
Waves of it drilled into Gu Chenran's nose, enveloping him as if it could penetrate every hole.
It’s strange, why didn’t I think this facial cream was fragrant before? Is it because Wen Ling used it that it became so fragrant?
The cabin was very narrow, and even if they were separated, it was less than half an arm's length away. He could see Wen Ling's profile when he turned his head.
Gu Chenran lay flat on the bed with her hands folded on her stomach, a very proper and honest sleeping position.
He just lay there straight, not daring to move at all, for fear of disturbing Wen Ling next to him.
He couldn't sleep at all in this state, and he wondered if Wen Ling couldn't sleep like her.
After lying down for a while, I was just trying to find something to talk to Wen Ling, at least to make things less awkward between the two of us.
As a result, I heard the sound of Wen Ling's even breathing.
She actually fell asleep so heartlessly!
Gu Chenran had mocked him for who knows how many times tonight. Why was he overthinking it again?
Listening to the sound of breathing, I was slowly relaxing and just feeling a little sleepy when suddenly my thigh felt heavy.
He opened his eyes, carefully propped up his upper body and looked over, and saw Wen Ling's calf stretched out from under the short machine and hanging on his thigh.
Gu Chenran's whole body instantly became even stiffer, and he dared not move at all.
But strangely, when Wen Ling placed her calf on his thigh and he felt the weight of Wen Ling, his confused heart actually slowly calmed down.
Even Gu Chenran didn’t know when he fell asleep.
When I woke up, it was already the next day.
Wen Ling stretched comfortably in a state of half-asleep and half-awake, but her elbow seemed to touch something warm, and she let out a muffled groan.
Wen Ling stood up instantly, her eyes widened, and what she saw was a handsome face. From her angle, the jawline was particularly obvious.
Gu Chenran, who was elbowed early in the morning, opened his eyes in a daze.
The two looked at each other and realized that the dwarf between them had been kicked to the ground at some point. Now Wen Ling was hugging Gu Chenran's waist tightly like an octopus, and her head should have been resting on Gu Chenran's chest.
Gu Chenran's arms on Wen Ling's side were stretched out wide, holding her in his arms.
The two people slept in a surprisingly harmonious posture without realizing it.
This time, not only was Gu Chenran shocked, even Wen Ling herself was shocked.
The first thing she said was: "Why did you push the drone down?"
Gu Chenran shook his head like a rattle: "No, I don't know, it wasn't me who kicked it!"
He started with three consecutive denials.
Wen Ling was puzzled: "Did I kick him?"
We didn't dwell on this question for too long, and the case of who kicked the ball was soon solved.
Because the short machine was under Wen Ling's bed, from this angle it was obvious that it was Wen Ling who kicked it himself.
Wen Ling scratched his head: "I'm sorry, my sleeping posture at night seems not to be very good. If you mind, tonight..."
Before she finished her words, she was interrupted by Gu Chenran: "It's okay, I don't think your sleeping posture is bad, it's okay to sleep like this in the future, don't bother, with you around, I seem to feel more secure and sleep better."
This is true.
Because Gu Chenran has never slept soundly at night since the accident.
Even in his own courtyard in the palace, he only had a very light sleep and would wake up quickly at the slightest disturbance.
This was the first time he woke up after being poked by Wen Ling's elbow.
Wen Ling looked at Gu Chenren suspiciously: "You don't have to do this to take care of my feelings. If you don't get enough rest, you will be exhausted during the day."
"I slept really well, not for the feeling of looking for you!" Gu Chenran said firmly.
Wen Ling was relieved: "Okay, then, you get up and change your clothes first, and pull the bed curtains. I will change after you finish changing your clothes."
"Okay." Gu Chenran got out of bed obediently.
He could hardly suppress the upward curve of his lips, and he really wanted to call Lu Jian to come in and see, who said he couldn't sleep with Wen Ling!
