Zhou Yushen leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, looking at Shen Zhiyi, who was covered by an oversized bath towel.
"You can sleep in the guest room on the second floor."
"I'll go get my mom's pajamas for you. Wear hers after you take a shower."
Shen Zhiyi stopped drying her hair.
"That's not a good idea, is it?"
She peeked out from under the soft bath towel, her small face barely the size of a palm, her eyes misty and wet.
It looks like a fluffy cat.
"How can I wear Auntie's clothes?"
She tilted her head and said gently, "How about... Brother Yu Shen, I can wear one of your T-shirts for one night, and then wash it and return it to you tomorrow, okay?"
His... T-shirt?
Zhou Yushen was taken aback.
He looked into her clear, watery eyes and didn't react for a moment. Wearing his clothes seemed even more inappropriate than wearing his mother's.
He nodded slightly.
"good."
Zhou Yushen's agreement nearly crumbled when he saw her wearing his T-shirt.
His T-shirt was oversized.
She appeared even smaller when she was hidden among them.
The hem just covered the top of her thighs, revealing two straight and slender legs that appeared even whiter and more delicate against the black fabric.
Her soft, seaweed-like hair was swept aside and tucked behind her ears, then draped over her body, revealing her two small earlobes.
The ends of her hair, not yet fully dried, left a small, faint damp stain on her clothes.
It is particularly thought-provoking.
She smiled sweetly and thanked him.
She looks both innocent and alluring.
Zhou Yushen's Adam's apple bobbed deeply.
Imagination runs rampant.
It was as if his presence completely enveloped her...
His eyes darkened, and he turned away as if fleeing. "I'm going back to my room now. Call me if you need anything."
The door slammed shut.
Shen Zhiyi looked at the closed door, her smile deepening, and walked to the guest room next to his bedroom.
Close the door gently.
Night was falling.
In the darkness, Zhou Yushen heard his own increasingly disordered breathing.
He rolled over.
I want to banish Shen Zhiyi's face from my mind.
But when no one was around, that fleeting impression somehow became even clearer.
They even uncontrollably contemplate and sketch out those unseen scenes in their minds.
Inch by inch.
That non-existent gaze, amidst his chaotic thoughts, slowly licked away at his black T-shirt like tongues of fire...
His thick eyebrows furrowed.
He suddenly sat up.
She threw back the covers, got up, and went to the kitchen to get some water.
I just came downstairs.
Then I heard rustling noises coming from the kitchen.
Zhou Yushen's brows furrowed.
He shuffled his feet.
He walked over and suddenly grabbed the dark figure!
With one hand twisting the wrist, the arm was stretched out horizontally, and the person was pressed against the island platform with a swift movement.
"Ugh!" Shen Zhiyi exclaimed in surprise as her face pressed against the cold marble, "Brother Yu Shen, it's me."
His legs were pressed against hers, almost pressing down on her.
She shifted uncomfortably.
"Understand?"
Zhou Yushen let go of her hand and hurriedly pulled her up.
"How about it?"
Did I hurt you?
Shen Zhiyi rubbed her wrists, then her sore face, and shook her head.
"It's nothing, I was just scared by you."
Zhou Yushen adjusted to the darkness and could see her face clearly by the moonlight.
The girl's eyes sparkled, and her lips were slightly pouting, making her look exceptionally charming.
His expression darkened, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "Why aren't the lights on?"
It's so late.
He thought it was a thief.
Shen Zhiyi clutched her stomach sheepishly, "I forgot to eat dinner, and I'm so hungry I can't sleep..."
"I'm sorry, Brother Yu Shen."
"I didn't turn on the light because I didn't want to wake you, but I didn't expect to disturb your sleep anyway."
She looked apologetic.
Zhou Yushen remained silent for a moment.
But his gaze followed her movement, looking down at her stomach, and he realized that they were standing very close.
He was almost pressed against her legs, holding her between his arms and the island platform.
She was still wearing his clothes...
Zhou Yu closed his eyes briefly.
He suddenly took half a step back.
The sweltering heat of the summer night instantly assaulted his entire body, making him feel unbearably hot.
Shen Zhiyi seemed to notice that his breathing had become heavier.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Why is your body so hot?
They were only half an arm's length apart.
Just now, when he stepped back, his arm accidentally brushed against hers.
That's when she realized he had a very high body temperature.
So I naturally walked over and reached out to touch his forehead.
"Does he have a fever?"
The moment the soft, cool skin of the back of his hand touched him, Zhou Yushen felt as if he had been electrocuted and abruptly took half a step back.
"fine."
"It's just too hot."
He turned his back, concealing his lapse in composure in the darkness.
Are you hungry?
"I'll cook you something to eat."
He took a deep breath, strode over, and turned on the light.
Bright light dispelled the enchanting scenery.
When Shen Zhiyi saw his slightly flushed forehead, a faint smile appeared in her eyes.
Zhou Yushen took out an apron and put it on.
"There's not much food at home, can I cook you some instant noodles?"
Driven by hunger, Shen Zhiyi nodded vigorously.
"Okay, okay."
Then she seemed to realize that her eagerness was somewhat impolite.
He then gave an awkward laugh.
"Wouldn't this be too much trouble for you?"
"If there's bread or milk, I'd be happy to have a little bit."
"No trouble at all." Zhou Yushen opened the refrigerator and took out the last bit of vegetables and eggs.
