Gu Nian came out of the bathroom, still damp, and saw that the person on the bed was already asleep.
I picked up the pajamas at the foot of the bed, hesitated for a moment, and then put them on.
He snuggled into bed, lay on his side, and looked down at the girl's delicate sleeping face, his fingers gently tracing her brows.
He leaned down and kissed her forehead, whispering softly, "Goodnight."
Turn off the lights and fall asleep hugging your soft, warm "pillow".
The next day, in the morning.
A small head peeked out from under the covers on the bed.
Then a slender arm reached out from under the covers to grab the phone from the bedside table.
The bright light from the phone screen made Luo Shimiao squint.
After my eyes adjusted, I opened them and said, "9:05 a.m., thank goodness. I thought I had overslept."
A lazy, husky voice sounded in my ear: "Good morning~".
Luo Shimiao put down her phone, turned around and hugged the man's waist, a smile playing on her lips: "Good morning, my darling."
"It's still early, aren't you going to sleep?" Gu Nian's eyes swept over her phone screen.
Luo Shimiao shook his head: "I'm not going to sleep. Today I'm going to accompany my beloved concubine to pay respects to her grandparents. If you want to go, you can come along."
Gu Nian: "Go."
"Let's get up, wash up, have breakfast, and then we can leave." Luo Shimiao turned on the light, stood by the bed, and looked at the lazy and handsome man: "You don't have any clothes to wear out, but Third Brother has a lot of new clothes. You can pick out an outfit from him later."
"Okay, wait for me a moment, I'll go upstairs with you." Gu Nian got out of bed and headed straight for the bathroom.
While he was washing up, Luo Shimiao folded the serene nightgown her best friend had given her and put it in the box.
I casually tore off the sticky note, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the trash can.
"Ding-dong, ding-dong." The phone emitted a WeChat notification sound.
Luo Shimiao opened the message and saw his beloved concubine's mischievous smiley face emoji, as well as the message she had sent.
Li Man: "Miaomiao, how was the 'battle' last night? Can you still get up today? If you can't, then get some rest. Your third brother and I will go."
"You, Li Man, how can you push your best friend into a 'wolf's den' like this? You wicked woman!" Luo Shimiao spat out her voice message.
A moment after the voice message was sent, Luo Shimiao opened it with a whoosh.
"Hehe~" came Li Man's soft laughter.
"You sound so energetic, so nothing must have happened last night. I'm just trying to help you out, how is that pushing you into a 'wolf's den'?"
"That doesn't make sense. If you put on that outfit, the effect will be better than an aphrodisiac, unless your man is impotent." After a few seconds of pause, "Oh, I see. No need for that, Miaomiao. Just don't do it inside at the last moment. You wasted your time watching yesterday's movie."
Luo Shimiao was furious after hearing this; in Huang's case, she had lost completely.
One Gu Nian, one Li Man, two General Huangs—sooner or later they'll taint her pure heart with yellow. Oh, and there's also her idiot third brother.
As soon as Gu Nian came out, he saw her sitting on the bed sighing: "Miao Miao, what's wrong?"
He was full of energy before he went in, but he suddenly became listless.
Luo Shimiao pushed her cheeks with her fingers, revealing a smile that looked more like a grimace: "It's okay, I'm fine."
"Pfft~" Gu Nian laughed and walked over, ruffling her hair: "What's wrong?"
"I was a little upset by my beloved concubine, but it's really nothing. Let's go upstairs." Luo Shimiao reached for the gift box, but was stopped by a long, slender hand.
"Huh?" Luo Shimiao looked up at the owner of the hand, puzzled.
Gu Nian looked down at her directly: "Can I have it?"
"Cough cough..." Luo Shimiao choked on her saliva and said with a red face, "Even if I gave it to you, you wouldn't be able to wear it. What would you want it for?"
Gu Nian: "I'll keep this as a memento, to prove that the 5 million I spent last night was worth it."
"Then... then you can have it." Luo Shimiao said softly, looking down.
Thinking about how the man had kissed her all over her body last night, her face grew even hotter. She grabbed her phone and quickly stood up: "Let's go upstairs."
The two walked out of the room.
The middle-aged couple, who were sitting on the sofa in the living room listening to the morning news, turned around at the sound of the door closing.
Upon seeing the tall, handsome man, the two exclaimed in unison, "A-Nian?"
Gu Nian smiled slightly and said, "Good morning, Uncle and Aunt."
Luo Shimiao hid behind the man, silently chanting, "You can't see me, you can't see me."
“No need to hide anymore, your father and I aren’t blind,” Ye Shujun said to her daughter.
Luo Shimiao stiffened, stepped out from behind the man, raised her hand, and greeted him warmly: "Beautiful Mom, handsome Dad, good morning!"
Ye Shujun's gaze swept over the two of them; the two sets of pajamas looked somewhat familiar.
"You guys keep watching, we're going upstairs." Luo Shimiao pulled Gu Nian toward the elevator.
I've only taken a few steps.
"etc."
The two stopped at the same time.
Luo Shimiao forced a bright smile: "Mother, is there anything else you need?"
"The clothes you're wearing were bought for your grandfather by me. How did they end up on you?" Ye Shujun asked, narrowing her eyes.
"Ah, this..." Luo Shimiao looked at the man, wondering how to explain this.
Gu Nian blinked and said, "Tell me the truth."
"Never mind, I'll order a few more sets for your grandfather. You young people are so wild, you love doing role-playing." Ye Shujun elegantly picked up her teacup and brought it to her lips.
Luo Shimiao puffed out her cheeks: "We didn't." Then, a mischievous smile crept across her lips: "Dad, next time you buy 'clothes' for Mom, have the delivery person put them separately from ours. It's easy to accidentally take the wrong ones, like last year when I..."
"Pfft..." Ye Shujun spat out a mouthful of tea: "Shut your mouth and get upstairs!"
A hint of unease flashed across Luo Jingyuan's eyes. He turned up the TV volume; as long as he couldn't hear it, he wouldn't feel awkward.
"Hey~" Luo Shimiao said smugly as he led Gu Nian into the elevator.
After they left, Ye Shujun pinched her husband's waist: "I told you not to buy it, but you insisted on buying it!"
Luo Jingyuan rubbed his back and said, "Wife, have mercy! I won't buy it!"
"Knock knock knock." Luo Shimiao knocked on her third brother's door.
After waiting for about ten seconds, the door opened.
Luo Jianxing, head down, left hand on the doorframe, right foot crossed over left, shirt unbuttoned and open: "Got some mud~"
Luo Shimiao: "..............."
Gu Nian: "..............."
The two of them looked at him like he was an idiot.
Luo Jianxing didn't get a response, so he looked up and saw them. His smile vanished instantly, and he said with a disappointed look, "What are you guys doing here?"
"Lend him some clothes." Luo Shimiao pushed the man into the room and walked towards her own room without looking back.
