“Where’s your blanket?” Jing Qian asked out of the blue.
“When they moved the bed, they forgot about the blanket. I’ll look for Butler Xu now.”
Seeing how Zhan Lichuan was about to leave, Jing Qian stopped him.
“It’s already three in the morning and Butler Xu should be asleep by now. If you don’t mind… We can share one.”
“I’m just afraid that you won’t like it.”
Zhan Lichuan was being extremely sincere about it. His facial expression showed a guilty expression and he hoped that Jing Qian wouldn’t dislike him because of this. The dirty thoughts that appeared in Jing Qian’s mind were slowly washed away.
This was her first time seeing a man being so worried and afraid when he was about to share a bed with her.
The men in her past were all like wolves, even before they stepped into her bedroom. They were extremely disgusting.
Jing Qian sat on her bed and looked at Zhan Lichuan, who was standing by the side of the bed. She didn’t have the nauseous feeling that she would usually get when being close to another man. Instead, she looked at the man who was like a monk and laughed as she said, “Why are you standing there? Quick, lie down here. Aren’t you sleepy?”
“Thank you, Qianqian.”
He was thanking her for such trivial matters as if she had done something extraordinary.
When Jing Qian came back to her senses, Zhan Lichuan, who was still standing next to her bed, was already lying down on her bed.
This speed…
Jing Qian laid down as well.
As soon as she laid down, Zhan Lichuan asked, “You’ve been so busy making those pills. zre your hands sore?”
“Not really.”
Since she had inner ‘Qi,’ making these pills wouldn’t take up much of her energy.
However, Jing Qian could feel a pair of warm hands grab onto her forearm under the blanket, gently massaging her arms.
It felt extremely comfortable.
“How does it feel?”
Zhan Lichuan’s fresh, minty breath blew gently next to her ears.
Jing Qian was enjoying the massage, and with her trust in Zhan Lichuan, she started feeling sleepy.
She answered with a soft, mumbled voice, “En.”
After a while, Zhan Lichuan asked in a gentle tone, “Does it feel comfortable?”
“En.”
After hearing her answers, Zhan Lichuan’s massage got even better.
When he realized the girl’s breathing had become deeper, Zhan Lichuan asked again, “Would you like me to massage your head?”
After a few seconds, a soft mumbled reply came from Jing Qian.
Zhan Lichuan continued, “I can’t give you a massage in this position. I am going to put my arm below your neck. You can turn towards me.”
Jing Qian paused for a while before turning towards Zhan Lichuan’s body.
As for him, Zhan Lichuan took the opportunity and quickly placed his arm below Jing Qian’s neck.
Then he started massaging Jing Qian’s temples with his fingers.
Jing Qian felt relaxed, snuggling closer to Zhan Lichuan.
Zhan Lichuan moved closer to Jing Qian as well.
The distance that the both of them kept between them out of manners was now gone.
Soon, the personal distance disappeared as well.
In the end, Jing Qian was sleeping on Zhan Lichuan’s chest while he was hugging her with his arm. There was no distance left between the two of them.
The next day, Jing Qian was the one who woke up first.
When she woke up, she realized that her face was on a fair, muscular chest.
She was about to explode when she realised that the other person was sleeping in a normal position with both his arms next to his body.
As for her, she was like a snuggly koala bear who had climbed all over him, with one of her legs on top of him.
