Chapter 147: Chapter 147: Husband and Wife One Night (6)

Xiao Yebai walked up to the bed and saw the partition that someone in the middle of the bed had fixed up, and for a moment was taken aback, "Is this what they call a ’38 line’?"

Considering that she had said before that her room was always open to him, he didn’t hesitate to stroll into her room after his bath, feeling pleased with himself. But there it was, a ’38 line’ built out of a sheet on a double bed, constructed so tidily that he almost mistook her for someone with a background in architecture.

Gu Nuan coughed lightly from under the blanket, "It’s late, let’s sleep."

What she meant was, either you sleep or you don’t.

In fact, if Master Xiao had to say, this treatment was already quite good. He hadn’t been sent to sleep on the living room sofa or on the floor in the room.

He untied the bathrobe around him and lay down on the bed.

On the other side, Gu Nuan could clearly feel his weight almost collapsing her side of the bed. This terrifying force made her clutch the quilt tighter.

He tossed and turned in bed, causing it to vibrate up and down.

Kid, can’t even sleep peacefully.

Unable to hold back, Gu Nuan shouted, "What are you doing?"

"I’m looking for the blanket."

"Isn’t the blanket under you?" She couldn’t see it, but Gu Nuan could still guess it’s a mistake only a kid would make.

Therefore, he had to get out of bed, grab the blanket, and lie back down, while explaining, "I wasn’t like this before. The bed at home is even bigger, and it’s just me sleeping in it."

"If you think it’s too narrow, you can sleep on the floor," Miss Gu couldn’t bear it any longer.

This rich kid will never know the bitterness of poor families.

Back in the day, the Gu family, when they had no place to put a bed, had to squeeze together and sleep on the floor.

Xiao Yebai said, "You let me sleep on the bed, so why would I sleep on the floor? The bed is not too narrow; it’s just right for you and me to sleep in."

Gu Nuan rolled her eyes again—what kind of man says something like that?

No way, if she kept tangling with a kid, she wouldn’t be able to sleep at all tonight.

So, Gu Nuan decided to shut her mouth tight and made up her mind not to speak for the rest of the night.

This tactic seemed to work quite well.

Xiao Yebai propped his hands behind his head and stared at the ceiling for a long time, unable to sleep.

How could he sleep?

A woman was lying beside him, and not just any woman, but one he did not have an allergic reaction to—a man would naturally want to hold and cuddle her.

He tilted his head, looked past the ’38 line’, and admired the back of her body as she slept facing away.

Not talking?

Is she asleep?

Incredible, how can she sleep?

Mo Fei, do you think the person lying beside you isn’t a man?

Xiao Yebai frustratedly ran his fingers through his hair.

It was his first time being this close to a woman and he had no idea how to prove he was a man and not someone else, given his lack of experience. He figured he’d ask Old Fourth for advice tomorrow. Old Fourth was older than him and should have more experience.

He turned over and started dozing off toward the other side, facing the window.

Gu Nuan actually wasn’t asleep.

How could she sleep?

A big man was lying next to her. It was her first time experiencing this, and it made her heart race as if it wasn’t her own.

If it were Wa Zicong, she definitely wouldn’t have let him into her room, but there was no helping it, the man now was her husband, and the show must go on.

Just as she sighed to herself, she heard from beside her, the sound of snoring, "Hu-lu, hu-lu—"

My gosh, in just a few minutes, this man had fallen asleep.

Gu Nuan suddenly realized, a man’s mind, nerves, and thoughts truly were different from a woman’s.

He actually fell asleep just like that?

Doesn’t he feel there’s a stranger lying next to him?
