Chapter 24: Chapter 24: Make Him Stay
“Yunjin, we are husband and wife,” Gu Ya said.
His implication was that he wanted to stay.
Having heard Gu Ya’s words, Su Yunjin was somewhat at a loss for words. They were indeed husband and wife now.
“Yunjin, what are you thinking about?” Gu Ya’s voice pulled Su Yunjin back from her memories.
She wouldn’t tell Gu Ya that she was thinking about the night of their wedding.
“Thinking about nothing!”
She wasn’t sure if it was just her imagination, but Su Yunjin always felt that Gu Ya’s gaze upon her was somewhat unusual. It had always been the norm for Gu Ya to sleep in the firewood room, and she couldn’t understand why all of a sudden he wanted to stay. Su Yunjin asked Gu Ya, “Why don’t you sleep in the firewood room anymore?”
“The firewood room is too hard and uncomfortable,” Gu Ya said.
“…” Su Yunjin was speechless. Too hard? Hadn’t Gu Ya always slept well before?
She had never heard him complain about it being too hard before.
Gu Ya had the expression of someone who was not going to leave, and since they were married, what was there to be squeamish about? Su Yunjin, a modern person, was not that prudish.
If Gu Ya really wanted to sleep with her, then so be it. Su Yunjin lay down on the bed, intentionally leaving a space for Gu Ya. She slept on the inside, leaving the outside for Gu Ya.
Standing still, Gu Ya saw that his little wife had left a space for him to sleep, and he was secretly delighted. He hadn’t actually insisted on sleeping with his wife.
If his little wife had strongly objected,
Gu Ya would have continued to sleep in his firewood room.
But now that his little wife had agreed!
There was no reason for him to continue sleeping in the firewood room.
So, he went to the bedside, and Gu Ya too undressed and lay down next to the space his wife had left for him.
As Su Yunjin lay in bed, she felt Gu Ya lying beside her. Perhaps due to the body’s natural reaction, Su Yunjin subconsciously tensed up, especially sensing Gu Ya’s masculine smell coming from behind. Her body also stiffened.
Gu Ya naturally noticed the changes in his little wife and knew that she was still a bit afraid of him, so he didn’t get too close to her.
He just slept on the outside.
Initially, Su Yunjin was a bit nervous, but after a while seeing that Gu Ya didn’t do anything to her and was just lying beside her to sleep, she gradually let down her guard.
After all, she was still weary and weak, and it wasn’t long before Su Yunjin gradually fell asleep.
How could Gu Ya sleep lying beside Su Yunjin?
