Lu Weixi was a light sleeper. She had a vague feeling when Qin Zhiyou was getting up. But she was weary and rested for a while before finally rising.
Just as she was getting up, Qin Zhiyou opened the door.
Lu Weixi got up to turn on the bedside lamp. Her arm was outstretched and her blanket had fallen, making her look somewhat indecently exposed. She quickly held onto her blanket to cover herself and turned to look at him. “Are you awake?” she asked.
As soon as she said these words she felt a bit awkward. If he wasn’t awake, what would they be doing now? Unexpectedly, Qin Zhiyou, who usually ignored her at such times, simply grunted “hmm” in response and then crawled back into bed.
She felt slightly unsettled and stammered, “Um, I need to go to the bathroom.”
Qin Zhiyou was startled, then nodded and stretched out his arm to turn on the bedside lamp. Lu Weixi quickly got up to go to the bathroom. When she returned after a while, she found Qin Zhiyou still awake. Without saying anything, she quietly slipped back under the blanket.
Lu Weixi slept on the edge of the bed. Thankfully, the bed was big and the blanket was not small, even with two people under one blanket they were quite far apart. Just as she lay down, she felt the bed move. Qin Zhiyou had moved closer and hugged her tightly from behind.
Lu Weixi was a little puzzled. Although he was holding her tightly, he did not make any other move. Did she misunderstand him? Was it because of Qin Zhigu? Because earlier in the evening, even though they did not eat at the same table, Qin Zhigu’s gaze was always glued to her. Was that why he was upset?
The ship was due to dock tomorrow. But docking the ship only marked the end of the cruise trip, not the end of his struggle with Qin Zhigu. This was just the beginning.
Qin Zhigu had returned to the country and it didn’t look like he was planning to go abroad again. If he stayed, focused on fighting with Qin Zhiyou over the control of the company, coupled with the enthusiastic cheers of their uncle and aunt, it was uncertain whether Qin Zhiyou would lose.
After all, she knew Qin Zhigu was young and capable. Now, he also had the title of a renowned architect. Their grandfather also thought highly of him.
But she never interfered in the company’s affairs, and Qin Zhiyou probably wouldn’t want her to, either. Moreover, Qin Zhigu was also a taboo in their marital life, so she wanted to avoid any unnecessary suspicions. Naturally, she would not bring it up herself.
After being married for five years, she had gotten used to this man’s shamelessness, and she was even beginning to prepare herself. After all, she didn’t have work tomorrow and the ship was due to dock in the afternoon. She could sleep till noon peacefully.
As it turned out, after waiting for a long time, the situation she had imagined didn’t occur, and she was almost half asleep from exhaustion..
