Her back suddenly came into contact with a soft quilt, and Chi Enen had not yet reacted. The man, like a whirlwind, had already roughly covered her with the quilt and pulled her over!
“Sleep!”
As he spoke, the lights in the room suddenly went out, and the entire bedroom was plunged into darkness, with only the sounds of insects and birds chirping from outside.
The man’s left hand rested on her stomach, burning hot, and Chi Enen felt so uncomfortable being pressed that she couldn’t help but shift a little.
Just then, she was warned.
“Right now, I just want to simply sleep. If you keep moving, 1 can’t guarantee I’ll stay so innocent!”
Her entire body stiffened, and she didn’t move an inch.
Li Beijue felt the person in his arms stiffen even more, like a stone, and that stifling feeling surged back up. With an unpleasant mood, he said, “Chi Enen, what are you afraid of? Afraid I’ll force you?”
“I have injuries on my body. Even if you wanted, I might not want to.”
If the incident at the hospital hadn’t occurred, she might have believed him. But at the hospital and on the sofa, he hadn’t cared about his injuries at all, acting on his animal instincts anyway. So when he said this, Chi Enen found it entirely untrustworthy.
The delicate body in his arms was still rigid, and Li Beijue became oddly irritated. He slapped her buttocks with his hand and said petulantly, “I said I won’t touch you if I said so; relax a little! You’re as stiff as a washboard; how can 1 sleep like this?”
Chi Enen tried her best to relax her body.
However, in the darkness, she was still too tense to close her eyes, observing every move of the man on the bed at all times.
Li Beijue closed his eyes and furrowed his eyebrows, hugging the person in his arms a bit tighter. The fatigue throbbed in his temples, and his breathing gradually smoothed out.
Is he asleep?
Chi Enen found it hard to believe he could fall asleep so quickly.
Carefully, she shifted a little and realized that the man beside her was indeed asleep.
Bit by bit, she moved away, and just as she was about to escape his embrace, her waist was caught and pulled back into his grasp.
Thinking that Li Beijue had been woken by her, she stayed motionless and tense, watching the person with his eyes closed. Once she realized he hadn’t woken up but had just moved subconsciously, she didn’t dare to make any further moves.
The unique scent of cold agarwood mixed with the smell of the household’s shampoo gel permeated her breath unceasingly.
Chi Enen slowly closed her eyes.
Initially, her eyes were just tired from staying open too long, but eventually, she quickly fell into a deep sleep.
The night was silent.
Outside the window, the summer cicadas chirped incessantly in the treetops, as the moon rose, and dew condensed along the veins of the leaves, rolling drop by drop toward the tips, like glistening pearls shimmering in the light…
The next day, early in the morning.
Chi Enen was awoken by noise.
Struggling to open her eyes, she heard the man’s voice talking, seemingly giving work instructions.
Having learned her lesson from yesterday, she didn’t foolishly move closer. Pretending not to hear anything, she closed her eyes again and feigned sleep.
“Enough, if you can’t handle even this small matter, then get lost and fend for yourself!”
Li Beijue lowered his voice as much as possible, his whole demeanor shrouded in haze. Who wouldn’t be in a bad mood after being rudely awakened from a good sleep? Especially since this was the first time in four months that he had slept so well. If it hadn’t been for that woman not waking up yet, he would have given the caller a piece of his mind!
“And next time, if you still can’t figure out the time again, just roll yourself over to S City for coal mining!”
With that, he hung up the phone, leaving the person on the other end completely baffled.
This time… He checked the time, 7:30 am.. Usually, at this time, wouldn’t Young Master Li have already summoned them?
