Chen Xingling watched his every move and couldn't help but sigh secretly again.
Of course, a handsome and elegant person looks good no matter what he does. Even if he holds a rustic enamel basin, he still looks elegant.
However, she couldn't help blushing when she thought that they would be sleeping in the same bed in a while and might do some embarrassing things.
After a while, steady footsteps were heard outside the door.
Gu Qi pushed open the door and came back with the unique chill of the night.
He packed up his things and his eyes fell directly on the bed. Seeing Chen Xingling sleeping motionless in the quilt, he slowed down his pace unconsciously, sat on the edge of the bed, and took off his shoes, socks and outer clothes with a little restraint.
The person next to me didn't move or speak. I didn't know if he was asleep or just too shy to talk.
Gu Qi looked at her soft black hair on the pillow, his heart rippling slightly, and his mind drifted away unconsciously.
"Xing'er..." he called softly.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xingling did not respond.
Gu Qi coughed lightly, and felt his throat seemed a little hoarse. He picked up the enamel cup beside him and took a sip of water.
This was the hot water she had poured for him earlier, but he was so busy drawing that he forgot to drink it, and the water temperature was already a little low.
He swallowed and took two more sips. The cool water flowed through his heart, finally easing the strange feeling of heat that suddenly emerged in his heart.
Gu Qi moved his body and stretched out his long legs, but then stopped - then he got off the bed, walked lightly to the door, and pulled the light cord.
Then there was a crisp sound and the lights went out.
Maybe it was because the lights had just been turned off, Gu Qi was not feeling well. He slowly walked to the bed, lifted the quilt and went back to sleep.
She was sleeping in the bed, warm and cozy. There was a faint fragrance, so faint that you couldn't smell it unless you smelled it carefully. It seemed to be the fragrance of her hair, or the scent of the vanishing cream on her face.
He didn't know if it was because the quilt was too hot or for some other reason, but he felt a little uncomfortable and moved a little. Instinctively, the hot feeling in his heart that he had just suppressed seemed to come back with a vengeance, and it seemed to be overwhelming.
Gu Qi took a deep breath, greedily inhaling the cold air into his abdomen, and finally calmed his mind.
Then, his slender hands moved gently in the quilt and gently embraced Chen Xingling's slender waist.
The next moment, he came closer and held her in his arms.
"Xing'er..." He called softly in her ear.
The person in his arms rubbed his chest in confusion and murmured: "...I'm sleepy...Let's go to sleep."
Gu Qi was quiet for a moment, rested his chin against her soft hair, and hummed softly.
After a while, Chen Xingling fell asleep.
…
The next morning, the long-lost sunshine shone through the window, bringing a touch of gentle morning light.
Chen Xingling woke up in a daze and turned over instinctively.
Suddenly, she found the touch beneath her was hard and warm - she was so scared that she opened her eyes immediately!
She was only half covered with the quilt, which was now crookedly across her waist. She was sleeping in Gu Qi's arms, with most of her body pressed against him, her arm unceremoniously across his chest, her palm resting on his shoulder.
Compared to her domineering and wild sleeping posture, Gu Qi was simply the best representative of the correct sleeping posture, with one hand placed at his side and the other on his lying belly, his legs stretched straight under the quilt, and he slept very soundly.
His half of the quilt didn't slide off too much, but the side closer to her was "dragged down" by her, with nearly half of his upper body left uncovered. If the two of them hadn't been so close to each other to keep each other warm, he would have probably been woken up by the cold.
Chen Xingling stuck out his tongue and carefully pulled the quilt up to cover himself.
She had no intention of continuing to "throw herself into his arms" and quietly moved back to her pillow.
After all this tossing and turning, I'm no longer sleepy.
She leaned back on the pillow, lazily looking at the sleeping handsome man beside her.
To be honest, my appearance was just pretty at best, not the type of stunning beauty. Compared with Gu Qi, who had a god-like appearance, I was simply unbearable.
It is rare to find a man as handsome as Gu Qi, so when she married him, many people wondered how many past lives she had lived in, otherwise how could she have found such a handsome and perfect man.
There is a huge gap in their appearance, their education and family background are not as good as his, and their jobs are even more incomparable. She has not found a formal job yet, but he is already a mechanical designer in a shipyard. The gap between the two is really too big.
No wonder the mother-in-law always thinks she is so lucky to be able to marry her precious eldest son!
The heroine in the original book was timid and willing to be a punching bag. Half of the reason was that she loved Gu Qi wholeheartedly, and half of the reason was that she had an inferiority complex.
But Chen Xingling doesn’t think so now!
In terms of appearance, she admitted that she could not compare with a handsome man like Gu Qi, but her body and hair were given by her parents, and she had no choice but to cherish and maintain them.
But she can try to change other things and strive to match Gu Qi in other aspects, such as academic qualifications, work and earning ability, etc.
The couple hadn't slept together for several years. He was very reserved last night, and so was she.
He had abstained from sex for several years, and if he had not had extremely strong self-control, he would have made love with her long ago. But because she was in poor health in the past few days, and because his son was sleeping next to him, he endured it all.
She pretended to sleep on purpose last night. He was agitated at first, but when he saw that she was very sleepy, he quickly calmed down and just hugged her to sleep.
She pretended to be asleep at first, but while pretending, she accidentally fell asleep.
In fact, the reason for avoiding his intimacy was a bit complicated.
Firstly, her body was still very weak and she couldn't stand the torture. Secondly, she was too thin. Most of her beautiful curves were gone and her skin had become rough and dry due to long-term lack of nutrition.
She used to drink fish soup all year round and swim in the sea every day. She not only had a plump and attractive curve, but also beautiful abdominal muscles and healthy light wheat skin. With her tall and well-proportioned figure, no matter where she went, young men would secretly look at her. She was definitely not the "skinny and ugly" thing her mother-in-law said.
The two hadn't been close for many years, but they were once a couple who had sex together and even had a baby murder, so he must be familiar with her figure and curves.
It would be fine if there was no comparison, but the gap was too big. She didn't want to disappoint him, and she was even more unwilling to face her lover in such a bad health.
Therefore, she wanted to take some more time to recuperate and get back to her previous figure.
Gu Qi usually wakes up earlier than her, and he is still sleeping so soundly at this time today, probably because he didn't sleep very well last night.
Thinking of this, Chen Xingling felt happy.
This way, she is even more confident~ He is indeed her husband whom she fell in love with at first sight!
Chen Xingling's heart moved slightly. She bit her lower lip and smiled softly. She slowly moved forward and kissed Gu Qi's cheek gently.
Suddenly, the sound of brisk footsteps was heard outside the door!
“Bang, bang, bang!”
"Mom! I'm hungry! I want to eat!"
The super light bulb came and woke up Dad all at once, and also shattered the beautiful thoughts that Mom had worked so hard to come up with!
Chen Xingling: “…”
Oh, oh, oh! How could I give birth to a son who would ruin my own place!
