Chapter 15 - Cohabitation

In Ying Yue's plan, it was time to go back after showing her face. Unfortunately, Mother Gu and Grandma Gu were just too passionate, they almost took the rope and left her behind.

After that, he very enthusiastically ran to his room and warned Gu Lin to cover Ying Yue with a blanket to prevent her from catching a cold when she went to bed at night.

After the door was closed, Ying Yue's smile froze and she was at a loss of what to do.

"Where are you sleeping tonight?"

Ying Yue knew that this was an idiotic phrase. However, there was only one bed here, so she couldn't help but worry about this problem.

"This is my room."

Gu Lin looked at Ying Yue and then sat down beside the bed. Ying Yue had originally been sitting cross-legged on the bed, but when she saw that he had also sat down, she quietly moved to the side.

"I can just sleep on the floor."

She stood up. It was summer, and there was only a thin blue striped sheet on the bed. She didn't even have a tool to make the floor.

"A bed that is 1.8 meters by 2 meters. Even if there were three of them, you would not be able to squeeze in."

Ying Yue cast a glance at the eight meter wide bed. It was indeed a spectacular sight. Even if one rolled a few rounds on it, they would still be unable to fall off. But reason told her that even if Gu Lin was a handsome and dazzling man, she couldn't rashly get close to him. She even regretted this ridiculous marriage.

"I, Gu Lin, don't have the habit of letting women sleep on the floor."

As he spoke, he stood up from the bed and walked up to Ying Yue. He grabbed her wrist, but Ying Yue was a little resistant to his grip. She stood there motionlessly. Actually, with how big the villa was, there shouldn't be any problems with the guest rooms. But how could Mother Gu and Granny Gu let their daughter-in-law sleep in the guest room?

Seeing that Ying Yue had stood still, Gu Lin let go of her hand and bent down slightly. Then, with one arm wrapped around her back, he used the other to pick up her foot. He then turned around and walked towards the bed. The warmth from the man's thick hands passed through the thin layer of clothes and onto her body, causing her face to instantly turn completely red.

"Ah, what are you doing!"

Ying Yue hadn't thought that the serious Gu Lin would do something like this.

"They might all be listening outside the door, so don't yell too loudly."

Gu Lin whispered into her ear as he carried her and gently placed her on the bed. He then turned around and walked to the bed, turning off the light in the room.

However, the light coming from outside the door was very obvious. The peeping Tom was standing outside, and had been caught by Gu Lin. He was really eavesdropping.

It seemed that these two had always had an old mindset.

In the darkness, Ying Yue could feel Gu Lin sitting beside her. However, she no longer had any place to retreat to. If she continued to retreat, she would fall.

"It's not like I'm going to eat you. Is there a need to hide so far away?"

Ying Yue couldn't see Gu Lin in the darkness, but she could clearly hear his voice and the sound of his body lying on the bed.

"No, I'm afraid I'll eat you."

Hearing Gu Lin's words, the competitive little girl in Ying Yue's heart automatically jumped out. She pouted and even completely calmed down.

Wasn't a two meter wide bed able to hold both of them?

Gu Lin didn't respond. He lay quietly in the darkness with the surroundings very quiet, so quiet that one could hear his warm breathing.

At this moment, a low voice came from the door.

"Why is there no movement?"

It was the old lady's voice.

"Mom." Madam Gu lowered her voice. "This is the first time the two children have come home together. I think they're tired. Let me help you to rest."

"Fine." The old lady reluctantly nodded. Not long later, the door completely quieted down.

Why is there no movement? As Ying Yue thought of this, her lips couldn't help but curl into a smile. Out of professional habit, she had to analyze this matter thoroughly in her heart. How could there be any movement?

If the old lady knew that the two of them were lying on the bed, fully dressed, without even a blanket covering them, and that their conversation didn't even count as a chat, would she be so angry that she would have a heart attack?

Ying Yue shook her head and sighed. What was this?

"Don't worry, we just need to come back occasionally. We won't have too much interaction with them."

It was probably due to this sigh that Gu Lin noticed something and opened his mouth to speak.

"Who is Jiajia?"

He had originally thought that Ying Yue would be moved by his words, but she hadn't expected her thoughts to jump so fast.

Once again, the woman showed her insolence.

Gu Lin's throat congealed, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

Ying Yue felt that she had gone too far. Gu Lin hadn't asked a single question about the cafe incident that happened today. She had even gotten married and drilled a ring, yet she'd stabbed him with a knife the moment she opened her mouth.

"A Lin, tell me, can you really forget about Jiajia?"

Ying Yue recalled the words that Old Man Gu had gritted his teeth and asked during the day, as well as Gu Lin's deliberate calmness. She already understood a bit of what was going on.

The more he thought about it, the calmer he acted. The more he wanted to forget, the harder it was for him to forget.

"I'm sorry." Ying Yue tilted her head to the side and glanced at Gu Lin, "I shouldn't be asking about your private matters. Perhaps it's because of an occupational disease."

Gu Lin was speechless once again as he turned on the bedside lamp. The faint yellow light covered his entire body with a layer of gold, outlining his handsome face. Ying Yue had to admit that he was a very handsome man.
