In the silence, Gu Zhi Qiu closed her eyes. The matter of Li Zhan Chen lying beside her made her feel rare happiness.
Perhaps he pitied her for what she had done today, so he gave her a little bit less of her pitiful gentleness. However, he still moved her heart. In an instant, the haze that had hung over the past few days was swept away.
She hadn't been able to sleep well for a year. She would often dream of that little mermaid's choice at night, but tonight, she probably wouldn't do that.
That night, she no longer had to choose whether she should kill the neighboring princess or turn into a bubble herself.
Perhaps in tonight's dream, she was just a simple little woman who had been brought home by the Prince and slept on a warm bed. When she woke up the next day, she would be able to see her favorite prince by her side.
The bed was very warm. The people around him were no longer cold. It was also very warm.
Gu Zhi Qiu's breathing became regular and steady, as she gradually fell into a deep slumber. It couldn't be blamed that the person she loved was able to fall asleep so quickly by her side;
But Li Zhan Chen, who was beside Gu Zhi Qiu, could not fall asleep so easily.
She had never been lying beside him like this before. He had always been the one who pushed her down in this bed. In this sort of silence, the memories scuttled up, and the air was filled with a sweet fragrance.
He smelled it, it was the fragrance coming from Gu Zhi Qiu's body. He had vaguely noticed it before, but it seemed to be the smell coming from her body instead of the shampoo. It seemed to be the smell coming from her skin.
Li Zhan Chen's night vision was very good, and when he tilted his head to look at Gu Zhi Qiu's sleeping face, he slowly inched closer, the fragrance even more unrestrainedly seeped into his nose.
Her body rose and fell as she breathed, and her nightgown just happened to wrap around her body. Her white skin was faintly discernible, and her collarbone seemed to flash with white light even in the darkness of the night.
Li Zhan Chen held his breath, grabbed the blanket for her to cover, and didn't look at her again.
With his back facing Gu Zhi Qiu, Li Zhan Chen closed his eyes and went to sleep.
That night, Li Zhan Chen had a dream. In his dream, he had reunited with his first love, Qiu Xuan. She said that she was so cold, and wanted him to hug her tightly.
"Zhan Chen, I want you to kiss me."
Then, all of a sudden, when he looked at his beloved lover, he saw that she had already changed into Gu Zhi Qiu. There was happiness in her eyes, and he didn't know when he had pressed her down onto the bed.
She looked at him, unable to endure it any longer as she opened her mouth, and asked him: "Zhan Chen, do you still want me?"
Li Zhan Chen suddenly woke up. The light shining in his eyes from all around couldn't adjust to the light for a bit, and then, Li Zhan Chen woke up.
Everything was a dream. A dream.
Li Zhan Chen heaved a sigh of relief, but looking at the woman he was hugging, wasn't that Gu Zhi Qiu?
Li Zhan Chen immediately frowned.
When did he hold her in his arms? Was it because of that dream last night, where he treated her as Qiu Xuan?
Gu Zhi Qiu pursed her lips and carefully put Gu Zhi Qiu down, then pulled her arm out of the bed. Then, she sat down.
Standing beside the bed and looking at the still sleeping Gu Zhi Qiu, Li Zhan Chen supported his forehead, turned around, and went to the bathroom to take a shower to calm down.
When Gu Zhi Qiu woke up, there was no one by her bedside. She blinked her eyes blankly.
She got up and saw that the door to the bathroom was closed.
After thinking for a while, Gu Zhi Qiu changed her clothes and took the scribble board with him.
She had a date with Li Zhan Chen in her dreams, and then kissed him. He kissed himself deeply, and the real kiss seemed to still remain on his lips.
Lifting his hand, Gu Zhi Qiu absentmindedly touched his lips, yet, he was laughing at himself in his heart.
It was just a dream. If he were to stay in this room for now, he would ask her why she was still here when he came out.
The gentleness he gave her was only last night. No more.
Gu Zhi Qiu did not want to ask for more, so she opened the door and walked out. She held the scribble board in her hands and also held her pajamas to call the servants to wash it.
Li Shao Han opened the door and came out. He saw Gu Zhi Qiu walking out of Li Zhan Chen's room with something in her hand that made it obvious that she had slept in his room.
Li Shao Han was stunned, he looked at Gu Zhi Qiu in a daze, and suddenly felt awkward when Gu Zhi Qiu saw him, so she subconsciously pulled her hair back, and nodded and smiled, treating him as a form of greeting.
Li Shao Han looked at her, mumbling to himself, "Why? Sister-in-law, why did you come out of my brother's room? "
Gu Zhi Qiu blinked her eyes and bit her lower lip.
Is it strange? They were husband and wife, shouldn't this be normal? But even in the eyes of his younger uncle, they had become so surprising.
Frowning, Gu Zhi Qiu did not write anything on the scribble board, he nodded to Li Shao Han once again and left.
Li Shao Han's hand trembled as he slowly clenched his fists. Clenching his teeth, he went downstairs, and the moment he went downstairs, he bumped into a servant. Li Shao Han said with a cold expression: "Go and make me a cup of honey water, hurry up."
"Yes, Second Young Master." The servant quickly left, wondering if this second young master wanted to drink honey water, why was he so angry?
