After half a day of effort, He Chengyu finally finished all of An Ruyou's hair. He also turned off the dryer which was continuously buzzing as it worked.
However, He Chengyu still lovingly combed An Ruyou's long black hair. He Chengyu didn't have a deep impression of An Ruyou before, but it was because they had interacted with each other in the past few months that he developed a deep sense of adoration for An Ruyou that even he could not describe with his own words.
This was not because of An Ruyou's own personal reason but purely because at that time, He Chengyu's eyes and heart were filled to the brim with emotions, and was thus unable to see the other girls. Even if He Family made an agreement for him and the An Family, He Chengyu could ignore it for Qiao Ruoyou's sake.
But this matter, He Chengyu had yet to figure out how he should explain it to An Ruyou. This was because He Chengyu did not want to ruin the beautiful atmosphere between him and An Ruyou.
An Ruyou did not know about all these thoughts in He Chengyu's heart, but after hearing so many things, An Ruyou was already very tired. By the time she was done with her hair dry, An Ruyou was already so tired that she could not even open her eyes.
He Chengyu had also noticed An Ruyou's condition and wanted An Ruyou to rest in the bedroom while she slept on the sofa in the living room.
But when An Ruyou, who was half asleep, saw that He Chengyu had thought to leave the bedroom, she actually reached out and grabbed onto the corner of He Chengyu's clothes, not wanting him to leave.
He Chengyu thought that it was because he was too sleepy and his mind was a little muddled. He thought that he had to leave her and that it was because of that that he would keep her that he couldn't leave.
Looking at the small white hand grabbing onto her own shirt, He Chengyu resisted the urge to rub this small hand into his own palm. He put An Ruyou's hand back into the blanket, and then tucked it in gently, whispering into An Ruyou's ear: "Listen to me, sleep well, I'll sleep outside in the living room. Don't worry if you don't go far."
An Ruyou didn't seem to have any reaction. He Chengyu thought that An Ruyou had already fallen asleep, so he helped An Ruyou turn off the light in the bedroom. Once again, he wanted to leave the bedroom.
What was miraculous was that An Ruyou seemed to have sensed something and once again urged him to stay alive. "Cheng Yu, don't go …"
Although it sounded like An Ruyou's mutterings when she was unconscious, she still successfully made He Chengyu's footsteps stop, and even become motionless.
How could a man refuse his sweetheart's invitation to stay with him twice in a row? Even He Chengyu was unable to do so.
In the end, He Chengyu made up his mind. Since An Ruyou wanted him to stay like this, then he would stay in the bedroom. Even if he didn't have a pillow, He Chengyu didn't want to go into the living room right now and bring the pillow back.
An Ruyou's body was slender, and she only occupied less than half of the space on the gigantic double bed, so even if He Chengyu and An Ruyou slept together, it was more than enough.
He Chengyu changed into his pajamas and quietly went to bed. An Ruyou, who was originally lying quietly on the bed, naturally rolled into He Chengyu's embrace. He moved skillfully as if he had done this many times.
hugged her gently, but there was no other feeling of disgust at all. It was as if she was already very satisfied with just this, and the corner of He Chengyu's mouth curved up into a similar smile as An Ruyou. The two of them continued to sleep in each other's embrace.
The next morning, the sunlight shone through the curtain and into the bedroom. The dazzling light was blocked, leaving only a warm feeling. It was this sunlight that woke up the two figures on the bed.
As he did not use a pillow last night, He Chengyu felt a little uncomfortable on his neck. However, when he looked at An Ruyou, who was in his embrace, He Chengyu felt some kind of physical discomfort, as if he had already been cured of it.
But just as He Chengyu was trying to move his neck, An Ruyou also woke up. Seeing He Chengyu rubbing his neck, An Ruyou looked behind He Chengyu, and discovered that He Chengyu actually didn't have a pillow, so she could guess the reason for He Chengyu's current actions.
An Ruyou did not ask He Chengyu about the reason, but only asked him about it with concern, "Morning … How's your neck? Is it serious? Do you want me to show it to you? "
He Chengyu had originally thought that it was just a little sore, to the point where he didn't feel anything else, but seeing the concern in An Ruyou's eyes, He Chengyu originally wanted to reject him, but he didn't say it out loud.
He Chengyu also knew that An Ruyou's medical skills were very good, if she rejected at this time, it would seem a little forced. Thus, He Chengyu turned his uncomfortable place to An Ruyou and said truthfully: "Last night's pillow was outside, I didn't take it. When I just woke up, my neck was a little stiff, there was no big problem."
"It's fine. Don't let your guard down. There are a lot of important acupuncture points on your neck. Let me take a look for you." Furthermore, you are the dignified CEO of the Ho Group. You need to take care of your body, okay?
"It's alright. Before, when I was studying abroad, and when I just came to Ho Group to work, I also experienced some tough times. You Yu, don't think that I'm too weak." He Chengyu played with An Ruyou.
An Ruyou knew that the understanding between him and He Chengyu was still not enough. However, An Ruyou was not in a rush either, giving all of this to time and afterwards, she would slowly understand and make up for the debt she owed He Chengyu when she was still Qiao Ruoyou.
An Ruyou placed her hand on He Chengyu's shoulder and neck, after careful examination, she found out that there wasn't much of a difference from what He Chengyu had said. It was just that because of the matter of He Chengyu's sleeping posture last night, the blood circulation on his neck wasn't well, so he felt uncomfortable, and there wasn't any big problems.
However, An Ruyou still used the medical skills that she had mastered to give He Chengyu a meticulous massage, because He Chengyu had to spend a large amount of time every day to lie on the table and do his work. Not only could An Ruyou's massage relieve He Chengyu's discomfort, it could also cure the root of his illness.
He Chengyu peacefully enjoyed An Ruyou's massage. As he seriously took An Ruyou's instructions into consideration, he secretly smiled in his heart, because He Chengyu felt that although she and An Ruyou's current situation was not yet clear, they were as natural and familiar as an old couple. He Chengyu was not even willing to break this serenity.
However, An Ruyou was extremely skilled and quickly finished massaging He Chengyu. Furthermore, it was almost time, so An Ruyou and He Chengyu should also get up and tidy up their work.
When he was washing his face and teeth, He Chengyu looked at An Ruyou, who was brushing his teeth right beside him, and started to plan in his mind about how he should confess to An Ruyou so that An Ruyou was unable to refuse and could promise him a favor. Then, he would get An Ruyou to move into his own house as soon as possible and live together with him.
The two of them finished their breakfast peacefully, and as they chatted, they walked out of He Chengyu's villa.
"You can just take me out to a place where it's convenient to take a taxi. I'll take a cab there myself." An Ruyou was afraid that if he and He Chengyu rode in the same car to the Ho Group to work, it would cause unnecessary trouble. After all, the relationship between him and He Chengyu right now was still unclear.
He Chengyu had guessed the reason why An Ruyou wanted to do this, but He Chengyu didn't want to help him. He had even shortened the distance between him and An Ruyou, so he naturally raised a hand and placed it on An Ruyou's shoulder before bringing him to her own car.
An Ruyou did not notice He Chengyu's actions, she was still preoccupied with the previous question: "Did you hear what I said? Just put me in a place outside that's easy to get a taxi from."
He Chengyu was not in a hurry to refute An Ruyou's words, he only sent An Ruyou to the front passenger seat, and agreed to An Ruyou's question: "Alright, alright, alright, hurry and get on the carriage."
The two of them got on the car noisily, but they didn't notice that at the entrance of the same house, at the back of Grandfather He Chengyu's villa, there was a person who, due to the deep jealousy in his heart, had even snapped a branch.
This person was none other than He Chengyu's pursuer, Mo Qian.
The reason why Mo Qian and the others had a closer relationship than the other girls was because of the relationship between the Mo Clan and the elders of the He Family. The Grandpa Mo also lived very close to the Grandpa He, and they were usually chess friends.
Therefore, He Chengyu and Mo Qian could be considered childhood sweethearts, but their intentions were always the same. He Chengyu could accept Mo Qian as a normal friend, but Mo Qian was not satisfied. He kept daydreaming that He Chengyu would have different feelings for him, but in the end, he could only be disappointed.
Even so, Mo Qian still felt that by relying on her close relationship with He Chengyu, his childhood sweetheart, after knowing each other for so many years, coupled with the relationship between the He Family and the Mo Clan, Mo Qian believed that at the starting line, she had already won against all the girls that were standing around He Chengyu.
However, what she didn't know was that in terms of emotions, it had never had anything to do with the first come first serve. Only when that person appeared would the world become bright. This was the power and magic of love.
After hearing that the Grandpa He was hospitalized due to her illness, Mo Qian's parents reminded Mo Qian that he must find time to look for the Grandpa Mo and show their filial piety. That way, they would have a good face.
When Mo Qian was young, she and his grandfather could be considered to be very close, and she really liked coming to his grandfather's house to play. But when Mo Qian grew up, his grandfather became older and older, and didn't have that much energy to play with Mo Qian. Moreover, the conversation between father and grandson became less and less, so Mo Qian hadn't come to see Grandpa Mo for a while.
Under the urging of Father and Mother Mo, Mo Qian finally reluctantly came to Grandfather's house to visit him.
Grandpa Mo was naturally happy, he even intentionally left Mo Qian here for her to stay the night, and left the next morning, hoping that her own granddaughter would stay with her for a little longer.
Even if Mo Qian had always locked herself in her own room, the Grandpa Mo was still very happy that Mo Qian had come.
After Mo Qian greeted her grandfather simply, she went back to her room to farm Korean dramas and play games. Unless it was to ask Mo Qian to go downstairs to eat, she would not leave her room. Mo Qian didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him, on the contrary, she was annoyed.
