Chapter 522: Chapter 522: Throwing Oneself into One’s Arms Chapter 522: Chapter 522: Throwing Oneself into One’s Arms It was a rarity in the world.
It’s just that times had changed, and no one believed in such things anymore.
To speak of it would only lead to scoffs.
However, it truly existed.
But that was all right, at least Gu Qiaoqiao was safe.
Some things are best understood by those who know, as long as they keep it within their hearts.
Gu Qiaoqiao admired her ancestor deeply. Such a person emerged only once every few centuries, and she was the lucky one.
But why did it happen after her rebirth?
Lately, Gu Qiaoqiao sometimes wondered what secrets lay behind her rebirth and the Spiritual Energy in her fingers.
Unable to figure out many things, she simply stopped thinking about them.
At this moment, her fingers were gently combing through Qin Yize’s damp hair.
As gentle as water itself.
Then, after three minutes, Qin Yize’s hair was completely dry.
Yet, the usually vigilant Qin Yize was sleeping soundly, without any defenses.
Perhaps he knew this was his home.
Perhaps he knew that Gu Qiaoqiao was by his side.
So he didn’t feel the need to be on guard like he was when on a mission outside.
And the relaxed Qin Yize, under the influence of Spiritual Energy, fell into a deep sleep.
This was also the first time Gu Qiaoqiao had seen Qin Yize sleep this soundly.
And at the corner of his mouth was a faint smile.
He looked like an innocent young man.
Gu Qiaoqiao stared at him for a long time.
She hid the thoughts in her eyes.
Gently, she removed the towel wrapped around Qin Yize’s head.
By this time, Qin Yize had already changed into his black silk pajamas.
Even through the pajamas, she could feel the strength radiating from his firm muscles.
Gu Qiaoqiao thought that he would be uncomfortable sleeping in such a position.
So, she moved her fingers.
Using Spiritual Energy to move Qin Yize’s body would be very easy.
However, when her fingers touched his slightly hot skin, Gu Qiaoqiao’s face uncontrollably flushed.
Why did it feel like she was suffocating now?
Having such disordered thoughts at this time.
Thus, Gu Qiaoqiao quickly made Qin Yize comfortable on the couch.
Then she placed a pillow under his head.
And she covered his abdomen with a summer quilt.
Through all this exertion, Gu Qiaoqiao felt like she herself had broken into a sweat.
It was supposed to be an easy task, but every touch of Qin Yize’s skin still made her heart surge with shyness.
The actions tonight were torturous for her.
But she was almost done with the last step.
She still had to position his legs properly on the couch.
Because one of Qin Yize’s legs, in the process of moving him, had ended up hanging off the edge of the couch.
Gu Qiaoqiao had to lift Qin Yize’s leg gently.
Then place it on the couch.
Gu Qiaoqiao let out a breath of relief.
Just as she was about to turn away, she never expected to slip, and her body uncontrollably fell on top of Qin Yize.
Gu Qiaoqiao was so frightened that she felt like her soul was about to leave her body.
She couldn’t even bother with shyness anymore.
Looking in fear at the Qin Yize before her, her heart seemed to stop beating.
The room was eerily quiet.
The next moment, Gu Qiaoqiao was delighted to discover that Qin Yize was still deep in sleep.
He didn’t even move an eyelid.
And indeed, he wasn’t pretending to sleep, knowing his usual behavior, if she were to throw herself at him , he would have definitely held her in his arms by now.
