Chapter 460: 460. Come and sleep with your husband

The hand gripping the pillow tightened, but her feet remained rooted at the entrance.

Lu Moqing’s gaze swept over the pillow in Qiao Xu’s hand, and with a light chuckle, he walked towards her.

As he approached, Qiao Xu instinctively took a step back.

Lu Moqing stood in front of her, eyes filled with laughter, and looked at her with slightly lowered eyebrows, chuckling, "Did you plan to come over and sleep with your hubby?"

"No!"

Not knowing what made her feel guilty, Qiao Xu denied it very quickly, fearing that Lu Moqing would misunderstand.

Lu Moqing’s lips curled up in a half-smile, reaching out to place his hand on the pillow in hers. Giving it a hard pull, Qiao Xu had no time to react, and her entire body, along with the pillow, was pulled into Lu Moqing’s arms.

Lu Moqing held her with a soft pillow between them, still emanating her unique scent.

"If you want to sleep with your hubby, just come over directly. No need to bring a pillow; you can lean on my arm."

His voice was husky, and combined with his wicked tone, it was extremely flirtatious.

Qiao Xu’s heartbeat started to race uncontrollably again, breaking away from his embrace quickly, "I was just thirsty and wanted to get a glass of water downstairs."

After saying that, she hurriedly ran downstairs.

Lu Moqing watched her with a smile in his eyes and didn’t follow her. He leaned lazily against the door, waiting for her to come back up.

Qiao Xu poured herself a glass of warm water and sat in the living room, staring blankly.

She realized something has been off with her recently. Before, she could handle Lu Moqing effortlessly, but recently, just one or two sentences from him could throw her into disarray.

Like now, afraid to go upstairs and bump into him, she could only sit in the living room with the pillow, avoiding him after having her glass of water.

She would go upstairs after Lu Moqing went back to his room.

Lu Moqing knew she was deliberately avoiding him by going downstairs to drink water. He wasn’t in a hurry, leaning against the door, thinking she would be up soon.

But after waiting for almost half an hour, there was still no sign of his wife coming upstairs. Frowning with concern, he took a step towards the stairs.

As soon as he reached the staircase, he saw that the woman had fallen asleep on the sofa with the pillow in her arms.

Lu Moqing: "..."

A helpless chuckle escaped his lips as he shook his head affectionately and went over.

"Xuxu?"

He gently shook her.

Although the living room had floor heating, Lu Moqing was still worried that she might catch a chill sleeping there in the winter. He called out to her again, softly.

"Wife, go sleep in the room. Sleeping on the sofa will give you a cold."

Qiao Xu, who was sleeping soundly, brushed off his hand irritably and continued to sleep in another position.

Looking at her rarely seen child-like behavior, Lu Moqing recalled the last time she had acted this way was when she was drunk.

As he thought about it, the laughter in his eyes deepened a few more notches as he leaned closer to her ear, "Wife."

Qiao Xu still ignored him, her eyebrows furrowing in annoyance as her sleep had been disturbed.

"Wife?"

He tried various ways of calling her but couldn’t wake her up, which made him think she was really in a deep sleep.

Not willing to disturb her sleep anymore, Lu Moqing sat down beside her, gently turning her body to lean against him before lifting her from the sofa.

The sudden exertion seems to have torn open his wound on his arm a bit.

Lu Moqing’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, but he showed no intention of putting Qiao Xu back down.
