"I …"
She lowered her eyes and bit her lower lip, unwilling to admit that she was indeed frightened by the waiter's words and didn't dare to sleep at all.
Yan Yuan noticed her dodging gaze and suddenly thought of something.
This damned girl was really afraid of ghosts!
"Lie down and sleep. It's cold at night, you'll catch cold standing like this! "
He made Liu Ruo Qing lie down on the bed and cover her with a blanket, but Liu Ruo Qing's gaze was still staring at him anxiously.
Very quietly and reluctantly, he asked, "Are you here too?"
Yan Yuan was startled. She saw that her hands were tightly holding onto his clothes, obviously afraid that he would walk away.
He had wanted to open his mouth and tease her, but when he saw the fear flowing out of her eyes, he suppressed the thought of teasing her.
"Mm, I'm here too. Sleep well."
He did not expose her and knew that this damned girl insisted on keeping her face. He just sat down beside her and said, "Go to sleep."
Seeing that he did not leave, Liu Ruo Qing calmed down and closed her eyes.
Yan Yuan stood by her side without moving, his heart becoming a little more gentle as he watched her hand still hold onto his clothes.
He liked the feeling of being dependent on her. Even if it was only temporary, he was willing.
Liu Ruo Qing had only fallen asleep for less than a quarter of an hour, but in the silent night, waves of mournful wails resounded. It sounded somewhat hollow, as if they were near but not close, and also as if they were far away.
This kind of crying sounded extremely terrifying in the dark night.
Liu Ruo Qing was already frightened to the point that she slept soundly. When she heard the crying sound, her eyes suddenly opened and she sat up on the bed.
Both of his hands tightly embraced Yan Yuan's arm. "Yes … Is it the ghost that the waiter was talking about? "
Yan Yuan's eyes swept across every nook and cranny of the place. Although his cry sounded distant and close, it sounded extremely loud and clear.
"Don't be afraid. I'm here. No matter if it's a human or a ghost, they wouldn't dare to come in. Sleep."
Yan Yuan looked out of the window as his other hand gently patted Liu Ruo Qing's shoulder, carrying a bit of gentleness and comfort.
But Liu Ruo Qing did not dare to fall asleep, her hands tightly held onto Yan Yuan's arm without letting go, and her body was very close to her.
Her eyes were clear and bright, filled with fear. At this moment, the fear that flowed out of her eyes made her look especially pitiful.
Yan Yuan's heart softened. Being looked at like that by her, he could not do anything, sighed, and said: "I'll go and close the window, and come back to accompany you."
"I... I'll go with you. "
The current Liu Ruo Qing did not dare to split from Yan Yuan for even a moment, even if he went to close the window, she would definitely follow him.
Yan Yuan was left with no choice but to nod in agreement.
Liu Ruo Qing moved closer to Yan Yuan, her hand was held tightly by Yan Yuan's palm as she walked towards the window to watch him close it. Liu Ruo Qing then nervously followed him back to the bed and laid down.
The look in Liu Ruo Qing's eyes was crystal clear and transparent. Combined with her trembling appearance, it made Yan Yuan's heart even more tender and loving.
The deep gaze engulfed Liu Ruo Qing's petite body into the darkness of her eyes, gently merging with her.
"Are you really that afraid?"
He lowered his eyebrows, and looked at Liu Ruo Qing deeply.
Her expression stiffened, but she still shook her head, adamant on not giving him face. "I'm not afraid."
She craned her neck, and in spite of the fear in her eyes, she refused to admit it.
The corner of Yan Yuan's lips twitched. He got up and was about to leave, but Liu Ruo Qing held him back tightly, "Where are you going again?"
"Since you're not afraid, I have a lot of things to do here, don't you think?" Haven't you heard that men and women shouldn't be too intimate with each other? "
"What bullshit is this about men and women not being intimate with each other? That's for strangers, we're husband and wife, can it be the same? "
Liu Ruo Qing panicked and blurted out these words, completely unaware of what she had said. On the contrary, it was Yan Yuan who was stunned by what she had said in her subconsciousness.
His heart pounded violently.
He knew that he should get rid of this damnable woman at this time, and let her go wherever she wanted.
When she needed him, she would be husband and wife. When she didn't need him, she would be the bitch that stopped her from being together with him!
Yan Yuan felt that it was funny.
However, upon seeing her fearful eyes, all of his anger was forcefully suppressed.
Sighing in his heart, he lay down beside her in front of her expectant eyes.
The long arm wrapped around Liu Ruo Qing's body, only then did she realise that she was ice-cold.
His hand subconsciously tightened a bit more, tightly wrapping her in his embrace and pulling the blanket over her.
"Alright, go to sleep now. Even if it's a ghost, I don't dare to approach you."
Liu Ruo Qing didn't know if Yan Yuan really had the ability to deal with evil spirits, but he had the ability to let her feel at ease.
Lying quietly in his arms, she finally relaxed.
After his nervous system relaxed, Liu Ruo Qing suddenly realized something.
Seeing that he was lying down on his own seat, with his face right next to Yan Yuan's chest, and listening to his calm and rhythmic heartbeat entering his ears, Liu Ruo Qing's ears started to turn red.
The smell that belonged solely to his body flowed through his nose. It was faint, very comfortable, and very at ease.
She quietly raised her eyes to look at Yan Yuan's face, only to see that his eyes were tightly shut, as if he had fallen asleep.
Unbeknownst to her intentions, she quietly reached out her hands and wrapped them around Yan Yuan's waist, hugging him tightly. She couldn't help but get closer to him.
His eyes dimmed.
If I am the real Liu Tian Xin, if one day, you tell me, you won't only marry me for your sister, how nice it would be!
Even if Liu Ruo Qing didn't want to admit it, it was fine. She knew clearly in her heart that she had lost control of her feelings towards Yan Yuan.
At this time, Liu Ruo Qing also did not know that the man beside him was incapable of sleeping at all.
With such a soft body by his side, how could he not be tortured to death?
But when had he ever really touched her when she didn't want to?
Ye Zichen clenched his teeth and endured the heat, but this woman, who wasn't afraid of death, actually still dared to hug him.
He didn't know if she was doing it unintentionally or not, but this time, she was causing him to be unable to fall asleep.
Suddenly, a shadow flashed past the window, and at first the mournful cries began to break out.
The shadow flashed too quickly, but it did not disappear. It swayed back and forth outside the window, as if it was a legless rogue who was floating back and forth.
Liu Ruo Qing was a little scared from the cry, she hugged Yan Yuan's waist tighter.
Yan Yuan didn't pay attention to the commotion outside the window, he only turned around and hugged Liu Ruo Qing.
Lowering his brows to look at her, he said, "Don't be nervous, I think this' ghost 'is probably caused by someone."
He did not believe that there was a ghost in this world, especially since this "ghost" was still reflected in the window.
"People?"
Liu Ruo Qing looked up in surprise, just in time to see Yan Yuan looking down at him.
The two of them were very close. The distance between the tip of their noses was less than a centimeter. The breath of both of their noses flowed through their noses, burning hot.
In Liu Ruo Qing's heart, there was no doubt that she was nervous. When Yan Yuan looked at his at such a close distance, it was as if he was looking at his with magic.
"Tian Xin..."
Yan Yuan's voice came out of his mouth with a hint of hoarseness. It was obvious that he was enduring something.
