Chapter 583: Chapter 582: Peaceful (2)
Bo Yan quickly finished his own clean-up, drained the bathtub, and cleaned the bathroom a bit more. He had already freshened up earlier, so after a quick tidying, he returned. When he closed the door, turned off the lights, and lifted the covers, Xia Siyu automatically moved closer to him, wrapping around him like an octopus out of habit. She even found the most comfortable position and drifted into a secure sleep.
Bo Yan watched the person sleeping in his arms, his eyes filled with tenderness.
Even he hadn’t anticipated that, although they had been apart for some time recently, their relationship had grown closer. This natural familiarity and the comforting feeling of being able to rely on him made him incredibly happy.
Maybe she hadn’t fallen in love with him yet, but she had already begun to depend on him, trust him, and get used to having him in her life.
With dependency and trust, that’s enough to sustain a marriage. He was confident that no matter how resolute Xia Siyu seemed in her words, her heart was still that of a soft and passionate girl.
Before coming home, Xia Siyu never imagined she could sleep so comfortably.
She had been traveling around in recent days. Being busy with work was one thing, but what was more exhausting was the toll it took on her heart.
Even though she and Qin Baizhou had no conflicts, nor was it because of a confession, she always felt there was an invisible restraint oppressing her, preventing her from working and living freely.
She thought she would be extremely fatigued that night, but unexpectedly, after Bo Yan came back, she slept very soundly, waking up only when it was already daylight.
When she woke up, Bo Yan was still not awake.
Xia Siyu was tired, and so was he. As the start of filming approached, he was busy studying on the side, with many tasks to handle. A director is different from an actor; an actor only needs to perform their part, but a director, even with assistants, needs to oversee the whole project and control many details.
Xia Siyu was wearied from travel, while he was working on set for twenty-four hours a day, apart from the time spent sleeping. Especially since he also had to carve out time to come back, his daily sleep never exceeded six hours.
Xia Siyu turned to look at him.
In his sleep, Bo Yan was really handsome. His profile was perfect, his features seemed chiseled with precision, defined but not overly sharp. She used to be beguiled by that face, chasing after him of her own accord.
After they broke up, she had tried hard to block out his face. Even after they got married and when he began to get close at the start, she strived to reject him.
But once she let go of her prejudice and obsession and looked back, Bo Yan indeed had a face that could make someone fall in love at first sight, impeccable in both appearance and physique.
Especially since he wasn’t just good-looking; he was also incredibly impressive in that department…
There’s a saying, “After satiety comes desire.” She was really tired last night, truly very tired, and aside from resting, she didn’t want to do anything else.
But once she had enough rest, her thoughts began to stir.
Food and sex are basic human desires. Women do have those little ripples too. It’s just that, compared to men, those ripples aren’t as urgent.
But with her and Bo Yan, it was a process of giving and taking. When Bo Yan used to play it cool, she wanted to tease him. When Bo Yan stopped doing that and became more direct, she found him annoying.
But after they had been apart for quite a while, and since he was really well-behaved last night and didn’t touch her, Xia Siyu’s innate tendency to tease and flirt was acting up again.
To be honest, even though she had used it plenty of times and had occasionally glanced over, she had never really taken a good look at his “equipment.” Today, she was going to take a close look!
