The next morning, Chen Lihua woke up first. She slowly opened her eyes before stretching forth her hands, in the process revealing the n.a.k.e.d skin of her shoulder as the duvet slid off her body.
Liu Longwei felt her movement, so he opened his eyes, and was met with the snow white skin of his wife's back.
He smiled and hugged her, making his n.a.k.e.d upper muscular body clasp together with her smooth fair back.
He nuzzled her neck as he greeted her in a low husky voice, "Good morning, did you have a good night rest?."
Chen Lihua felt tickled by his actions, so she tried pushing his head away with her hand as she replied uncomfortably, "God morning. My night was great, thanks to you."
"I'm glad i made you forget all your worries last night." Liu Longwei replied, refusing to take his face off her neck. Nuzzling was not enough for him now, so he started to smooch around her neck, shoulders and back.
"Longwei...." Chen Lihua called out in a soft tone as she turned to face him.
Liu Longwei stared at her in a smile, then he slowly moved his sight from her face to her neck, and from her neck to her n.a.k.e.d chest. The he stretched forth his hand to grab one of her b.r.e.a.s.t, but Chen Lihua covered her chest with the duvet.
"What are you trying to do?." Chen Lihua asked in a shy smile.
"Do you." Liu Longwei replied in a seductive voice as he climbed on top of her.
"Longwei stopppppp." Chen Lihua cried out as she tried to dodge him, but failed in the process.
"What should i stop exactly?." Liu Longwei asked as a smirk turned up on his face. He kissed her cheeks and made a go for her lips, but Chen Lihua quickly turned her face away.
"Longwei you've got to stop, I haven't brushed my teeth yet." Chen Lihua said in a frown.
She wasn't pleased with his actions at all.
"Who cares?." Liu Longwei asked as he kissed the middle of her chest.
"I care." Chen Lihua replied as she finally pushed him away.
She sat up on the bed with her back facing him, and her feet on the ground. Then she picked up her night dress from the floor, and put it on.
Liu Longwei watched her with a smile as she ventured into the washroom.
Liu Longwei didn't waste time at all, he stood up from the bed and walked into the washroom in only his pyjamas trousers.
Last night, Chen Lihua couldn't sleep properly. In between her sleep, she kept mumbling some incoherent words and was rolling on the bed.
When Liu Longwei came back into the room after he left to the study to do some work, that was the scene he saw. So he quickly went to lie beside her and and brought her into his arms, but that wasn't enough.
He was almost fidgeting, and didn't know how to calm her down, so he called her name as he shook her gently, but she didn't respond, so he had to sit her up and continued to shake her gently until she opened her eyes.
"Sweetheart, are you alright?."
Chen Lihua shook her head as she replied weakly, "I keep seeing those images. I am tired, and want to get them off my head."
"Don't worry soon enough, you will won't see them anymore. Now, get some sleep." Liu Longwei reassured her as he helped her to lie on the bed.
"I am scared of closing my eyes." Chen Lihua replied as she stared into his eyes.
Although there was no light in the room, they could still see themselves with the help of the moonlight.
"I will help you." Liu Longwei promised. Then he sat up on the bed and began to unbutton his shirt as Chen Lihua watched him.
After removing his shirt, he stretched forth his hand towards Chen Lihua and tried to remove her night dress, but she evaded him.
With her hand clasped tightly unto the chest area of her dress, she asked in surprise, "What are you trying to do?."
"Relax, I am trying to help you." Liu Longwei assured her in a calm voice as he watched her movements.
'Relax?.' Chen Lihua asked herself as she watched him like a predator. She didn't trust him at all.
What kind of help was he trying to offer by removing her dress, and how on earth was she supposed to relax?.
Liu Longwei caught those eyes staring at him like a hawk, so he explained to her immediately.
"I can assure you that whatever that is going on on your head is not what I'm trying to do."
How could he not understand the meaning behind that stare?. He knows his woman very well, and knew that she must have misunderstood him.
Chen Lihua continued staring at him in doubt, she didn't trust him at all.
Seeing the doubt in her eyes, Liu Longwei placed a hand on her shoulder and stared into her eyes deeply as he said with sincerity in his voice.
"I get that you don't trust me, but i want you to know one thing about me. I will never hurt you, no matter what. I thought that you would feel at ease if we sleep n.a.k.e.d, when our skin comes in contact with each other. That way, you will know that I'm with you."
Chen Lihua was lost in thought as she was dwelling on his words. She didn't know if what he said was true, so she thought of the possibility about it being true.
'What a unique way of helping her to sleep. Well, there is no harm in trying.' She said to herself before looking back at him.
"No s*x, i promise." Liu Longwei assured her.
Chen Lihua then slowly let go off her dress as she submitted her body to him.
Liu Longwei took off her dress before making her lie down with her back against his chest. Then slowly, he caressed the middle of her chest.
"Longwei!." Chen Lihua called out in fright.
'Didn't someone say no s*x, then what is this all about?.' She thought.
"Relax i know what I'm doing, i won't go far." Liu Longwei said.
"Okay, but don't arouse me." Chen Lihua said in a serious tone.
"Wow! I'm surprised that you can still be in the mood to be aroused." Liu Longwei said as he chuckled in a low voice.
"Longwei, I'm being serious here." Chen Lihua said, not finding his words funny.
"Okay, I'm sorry." Liu Longwei stopped laughing and apologized before kissing her neck and back.
His comfort made Chen Lihua sleep off, and this time around with him by her side, she had no troubles sleeping, because he would immediately comfort her wants she starts having nightmares.
