Through the broken door frame, the man’s handsome face was a little pale and tired, but his pair of eyes were full of concern.
Ning Xiaofei suddenly felt distressed.
Forget it, for the sake of instant noodles, she'll concede defeat.
Gritting her small teeth, she opened her mouth pitifully, “I’m a little cold, can I….sleep with you?”
The body conspired with her, because as soon as the question came out, she let out a big sneeze.
“Go back to bed!” The man ordered with a frown.
She has already volunteered to compromise, but he was still ungrateful.
Ha!
In a huff, she didn't close the door either, Ning Xiaofei retreated to the bed and lay back on her pillow, and the lights across the room dimmed.
Mu Tianye, you bastard, I’ll never talk to you again!
She clutched at the pillow in the comforter, but heard footsteps coming already close. She curled in the bed and let the soft edge of the blanket cover her entire face.
The quilt was then uncovered and the bed sank in. The man lay behind her, his large hands stretching out from her back, encircling her waist.
"Still cold?” His voice rasped huskily.
Ning Xiaofei turned her face in the darkness, “Didn’t you just ignore me, why did you come back?”
"Weren't you the one who wanted to sleep separately?” The man's grievance was tinged with thin anger.
“When did I say anything about separation?”
“In the guest room.”
“You said you’d take the guest room and I’d take the master bedroom…..”
Halfway through saying that, she suddenly crawled up.
“What are you doing again?”
Mu Tianye followed suit in annoyance and turned on the bedside lamp, only to see her lifting a large paper bag on the side of the door and walking out of the room.
“Aren’t you afraid of getting sick again?” Ning Xiaofei threw the paper bag into the corridor and immediately shrank down and ran over, burrowing into the quilt, wriggling to his body and nestling back again, “I don’t smell like instant noodles, do I?”
Mu Tianye was stunned and suddenly realized.
Just now, she was afraid of affecting him, so she took the dirty clothes away and kept him away while brushing her teeth…..
Hearing no answer from him, Ning Xiaofei raised her hand and cupped her hair for a sniff.
“How about…I go take another shower?”
The man didn’t speak, just stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms.
“I’m sorry, Xiao Fei …” His big hand wrapped around her shoulders as the man spoke low. “I didn’t do it on purpose. I really didn’t mean to hit you.”
“I know.” Ning Xiaofei reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, "I really didn’t mean to lie to you either, it’s just that…you…you didn’t give me a chance yesterday…Xicheng and I really just ate and talked, nothing else, it was all scribbled by reporters. You have to believe me!”
“I believe you.”
“Really?”
“Really.”
“Heh heh.” She then happily wrapped her arms tighter around his neck, “My husband is the best.”
"Yes woman!"
Ning Xiaofei was ridiculed, but her hands tightened even more.
Ning Xiaofei also took the initiative to burrow deeper, and as a result, she accidentally bumped her nose, which immediately caused an oozing pain.
“Stupid!” With a low curse, the man turned on the light again, “Don’t go to sleep, let's go to the hospital.”
“No, I’ve been there, the doctor said it was just some ruptured blood vessel bruise or something…the bones are fine, just two days’ rest.”
“Really?”
"I'm a dog to fool you."
Mu Tianye examined her nose with the light on and frowned. He then turned the light off and hugged her from behind. "In the future, I will try to control myself.”
She then giggled, “Next time you lose your temper, I’ll just have to hide away.”
“No way.” The man’s tone was domineering, “No matter what happens in the future, you’re not allowed to leave!”
