Chapter 98 Sleeping with You
living room.
Xu Fangli's thin body was huddled in the outermost sofa, her left hand nervously twisting the hem of her skirt, and she would occasionally glance outside.
Yang Miao had already returned to school, and only Aunt Rong was by her side with a worried look in her eyes.
After an unknown amount of time, there was finally movement at the entrance, and both of them looked over.
Seeing the man walking in wrapped in cold clothes, Fang Li quickly jumped off the sofa and ran towards him without even putting on her shoes.
In such a large space, everything is quiet.
There was only the sound of a woman's light footsteps.
Han Xi changed his shoes and looked up, he saw a lilac satin skirt and a slender woman rushing towards him with a worried look on her face.
"Are you okay?" Fang Li's voice was very soft, and she stared at him nervously.
Han Xi: “…”
The two stood at the entrance and looked at each other. Han Xi looked at her quietly for a long time. His dark gaze moved down to her right forearm which was wrapped in layers, and his brows suddenly frowned.
Fang Li saw the deep self-blame in his eyes and just moved her lips to say that she was fine, when the tall figure of the man suddenly leaned over. Before she could react, her body was embraced by a pair of strong arms.
"Han Xi..."
"Are you scared?" The hoarse voice trembled slightly.
Fang Li paused with her left hand hanging by her side, then slowly raised it and placed it on his waist and back. "...I was a little bit upset at that time, but fortunately Brother Tian showed up in time. Don't worry, I'm fine."
However, her comfort did not make Han Xi relax much.
Without pressing down on her right hand, he tightened his arms little by little, his chin dropped heavily on her shoulder, his body tense as if to press her into himself.
Fang Li was held in his arms so tightly that she raised her chin and had difficulty breathing.
Her nose shrank slightly and she frowned slightly: "Did you smoke?"
Han Xi didn't say anything. He froze for a moment before letting go of her. He stared at her still red eyes for a few seconds, then lowered his eyes and lifted her right hand again, his eyes carefully staring at the gauze on it. "I'm sorry."
Fang Li's eyes flickered, and she pursed her lips gently: "It's really okay, this has nothing to do with you, you don't have to blame yourself."
Han Xi stared at her gravely.
Fang Li's grievances that had finally dissipated suddenly surged up again. Her nose suddenly felt sore and her eyes became hot. She pursed her lips and forced a smile: "If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have called you this morning. I made you worry in vain and delayed your work..."
"So, if I didn't notice, you were going to keep it a secret from me?"
"It's not always... You saw it when you came back from your business trip..." Fang Li's eyes were red, and she looked very innocent with aggrieved expression.
"Xu Fangli." Han Xi interrupted her, frowning deeply. His warm palm carefully supported her slender wrist, but his thumb tightened unconsciously.
Fang Li couldn't help but frowned slightly, "It hurts..."
Han Xi's handsome eyebrows suddenly sank, and then quickly relaxed: "Now I know it hurts."
Fang Li lowered her eyes, pursed her lips and said nothing.
Seeing her like this, Han Xi couldn't help but reach out and hold her in his arms, his strong jaw gently resting on the top of her head.
Fang Li's gaze met the man's slightly rolling Adam's apple. After a moment, he spoke in a hoarse voice, "It's my fault. I didn't protect you well."
Fang Li's eyes flickered, and the wetness that she had been trying so hard to hold back spread instantly. Her lips were tightly pursed, but her throat couldn't help but choke with sobs.
Han Xi's arms were strong, but the hug was loose. Fang Li could feel the trembling in his throat. He said, "My heart aches."
"......" The moisture in Fang Li's eyes suddenly rolled out: "It's just a minor injury, it will be healed in two days. Why do you keep saying that? It makes me seem pretentious."
"I actually hope you can be a little more pretentious." Han Xi said.
Fang Li turned her head, rested her forehead on his shoulder, and buried her face in his chest.
......midnight.
“Woof! Woof! Woof woof!!”
Zhang Xue saw a huge, dark monster with a bloody mouth rushing towards her.
"Get out of here!" Fang Li wanted to hide, but her feet seemed to be rooted and she couldn't move.
She opened her eyes wide in fear and raised her arms to shield her face...
hiss!
As the piercing pain suddenly hit her, Fang Li sat up from the bed with a cold sweat and a pale face.
The room was pitch black and so quiet that the only sound one could hear was her uneven breathing.
Fang Li always thought she was not afraid.
Obviously, she overestimated herself.
She closed her eyes, and the smelly, fang-filled mouth pounced towards her, and she seemed to be back to the despair of that moment in the morning.
Fang Li held her face with one hand, breathed a sigh of relief, and forced herself to calm down.
After being silent for a few seconds, she turned around and tried to pick up the phone beside her pillow to check the time.
Unexpectedly, as she turned around, the quilt on her legs was pulled as she moved, and the phone beside the pillow fell to the ground with a thud.
Fang Li's heart skipped a beat. Just as she was about to bend over to pick it up, the next moment the door was violently pushed open from the outside.
The man, dressed in soft home clothes, strode in with a nervous look in his eyes.
"What's wrong? Is the wound hurting again?"
Fang Li lay on the edge of the bed and paused, then the man quickly helped her up. As the bedside lamp was turned on, she squinted her eyes to see the man's appearance clearly.
The man who looked cold and stiff in a suit and tie at night was now wearing gray home pants and a black T-shirt. His sharp bangs fell down and rested softly on his forehead. There was no trace of coldness in his body. He looked like he had stepped down from the altar, and his warmth was so warm that it made people's heart tremble.
Fang Li looked at him, her heart inexplicably beating.
"No... no, I just had a nightmare..."
"......." Han Xi frowned.
Looking at her slightly pale lips, he suddenly reached out and half-carried her back to the bed, carefully covering her with the quilt and tucking in the corners, then leaned over and sat beside the bed, saying, "Go to sleep, I'll stay with you."
accompany......
Fang Li blinked, her expression suddenly becoming unnatural: "I'm fine now, you, you go back to sleep, I..."
"Are you sure?"
Fang Li was startled.
The man beside the bed suddenly stood up, as if he was about to leave. She didn't know what was going on, but her hands were faster than her brain, and before she could react, she had already reached out and grabbed his clothes.
Han Xi lowered his eyes, looked at those slender white fingers, and curled the corners of his mouth slightly.
Fang Li's cheeks felt inexplicably hot. She let go of the quilt and covered most of her face, leaving only a pair of wet eyes exposed, looking evasive and uneasy.
"I don't plan to leave." Han Xi said.
Fang Li's long eyelashes trembled, and her tense heart relaxed slightly.
This was the first time Fang Li showed a look of dependence in front of him. Han Xiwuze's eyes were full of light and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
He suddenly leaned over and turned off the bedside lamp.
The room returned to darkness in an instant. Fang Li opened her eyes unexpectedly and searched nervously for the figure in the darkness.
"Where are you going?"
The rustling footsteps were moving slowly. Fang Li squinted her eyes to see clearly, but before she could adapt to the darkness, the quilt behind her was lifted up.
Then the bed beside her suddenly sank, and a man's unique breath approached.
Before Fang Li could react, a long arm appeared around her waist and pulled her over with a little force.
"Sleep with you."
