After sniffing the pillow for a while, she closed her eyes.
In her dream, she could feel a pair of arms around her. She liked the feeling of being hugged.
When she opened her eyes again, rays of golden light was already shining into the room through the chinks in the curtain.
Lin Yiqian stretched her hands lazily.
‘What?’
She felt that she had hit someone. To her surprise, she was met with a man’s dark eyes when she turned her head to look at the person next to her. He did not seem amused.
‘Is this a dream?’
Lin Yiqian pulled away slightly as she stared at the man’s face. After a moment of stunned silence, she sat up and pressed a button that drew open the curtains. The entire room lit up.
Gu Nianshen was still wearing the same tuxedo he had worn the night before as he lay down in bed.
“Ehh… When did you come back last night?”
She felt unashamedly happy on the inside.
However, her love for Gu Nianshen seemed to far exceed his feelings for her. Whenever he looked at her in the crowd, she would feel happy for the entire day or even for weeks.
Her reaction immediately made Gu Nianshen unhappy. “Did you not expect me to return?”
Lin Yiqian was about to reaffirm what he had said. However, she felt that he might be unhappy if she said yes.
“No. I thought you wouldn’t come home last night because of what happened.” She shook her head.
After speaking in a very soft voice, she lowered her head.
“Is that why you were able to sleep so soundly?” Gu Nianshen asked.
Before Lin Yiqian could reply to him, he snorted and got out of bed.
Why did Lin Yiqian feel that he might be upset…?
Lin Yiqian raised her head to look at Gu Nianshen in confusion.
Gu Nianshen did not return her gaze as he had lowered his head and was unbuttoning his shirt. As such, Lin Yiqian shifted her attention to his shirt that had not been changed.
If he had not changed his shirt, that meant he did not shower after returning home last night…
As she was thinking that, Gu Nianshen ordered, coolly, “Get the water running.”
“Are you going to take a bath?” Lin Yiqian asked.
“Do you think I’m going to put fish in the tub?” Gu Nianshen raised his brows.
“Alright!”
Lin Yiqian felt a rush of excitement as she immediately got out of bed and ran to the bathroom after putting on her slippers.
As the sound of water splashing could be heard in the bathroom, Gu Nianshen could not help but smile.
When Lin Yiqian turned the tap on, she was not able to dodge the flow of water in time. Thus, her face and forehead were drenched by the water.
After wiping it off nonchalantly with her hands, she turned around to walk out of the bathroom. However, as she was doing so, she bumped right into Gu Nianshen.
Right then, Gu Nianshen was merely wrapped in a bath towel. His collarbones and abs were completely visible to Lin Yiqian.
She was slightly stunned.
In the past five years, his body seemed to have gone through a drastic change. In the past, although he had frequently played basketball, he was still very thin and scrawny.
As Lin Yiqian recalled that, her face turned red.
“Are you done?” Gu Nianshen began to frown. However, he sounded very pleased with himself.
“…”
Lin Yiqian finally realized what she was doing as she quickly shifted her gaze away from Gu Nianshen’s chest. “I’ll get you some clothes. Which one would you like to wear?”
As she spoke, she lowered her head and ran past Gu Nianshen into the storage room.
“Up to you,” Gu Nianshen replied, calmly.
