Chapter 833: Chapter 812: Do you want to sleep in the same bed?

Seeing that there wasn’t a single sound coming from inside, Ariana Hunt’s brows furrowed deeply, instinctively fearing that something had happened to him!

After such a big incident that night, almost everyone knew about it except for Ivy Aretha; naturally, she knew too. Adam was Michael Gordon’s personal assistant, so of course, he had gone out with him. In such rescue missions, it was normal for the assistant to rush to the front. It would be all too common for him to get a little hurt, especially after receiving a call from the busy and doubly fortunate Mr. Gordon before coming back. This premonition grew ever stronger.

"Adam, say something. If you don’t speak, I’m coming in, alright?"

"No, no, I’m not hurt, I just... just fell asleep by accident!"

Adam never expected Ariana Hunt to still be awake. Not only was she not asleep, but she also had the time to come out and express her concern for him nonsensically.

"Then... then you better come out quick!" Hearing that he was alright, Ariana breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, "It’s easy to catch a cold sleeping in the bathroom, don’t think you won’t catch a cold just because you’re a big man. Getting sick doesn’t discriminate between men and women!"

As the words left her mouth, Ariana subconsciously felt that her tone was a bit off, as if she were speaking to her own husband!

Thinking this, Ariana hurriedly turned and left!

When Adam came out dressed in his pajamas after his shower, he deliberately glanced at the big red bed as he passed by. He saw that Ariana Hunt was already asleep on the bed. He wasn’t sure if it was because of his heart or his eyes, but it seemed as though the woman had only occupied half the bed, and the other half was intentionally left empty.

The room’s light was turned down very low. Under the dim light, the woman’s makeup-free face looked even whiter. Buried under the fiery red quilt, she radiated an unexpectedly fatal allure. Adam felt his throat grow dry and his heartbeat raced, as a strange emotion rose in his heart, and his cheeks flushed slightly.

Adam quickly turned his head away, forcing himself not to look at the person on the bed, and then went directly to take a pair of slippers from the bedside cabinet, moving to the sofa.

Just as he was opening the cabinet again to take a pillow, Ariana Hunt opened her eyes and called out to him.

"On our wedding night, you’re not planning to sleep on the sofa, are you?" Ariana’s eyes darted between him and the sofa, finally settling on the quilt on the sofa. After speaking, she felt her words might have been a bit too much, as if she was imploring to enter the bridal chamber, when clearly, such matters were usually initiated by the man!

However, this man looked like he would never take the initiative. Although they had only known each other for two days, it was enough for her to understand someone’s character!

"I mean, letting you sleep on the sofa on our wedding night doesn’t seem auspicious, and it wouldn’t sound good if it got out!"

After saying that, Ariana Hunt felt like she was indeed revealing there were 300 taels of silver on the spot!

She was somewhat afraid to lift her head to look at him.

"That stuff about auspiciousness and so on, those are just superstitious beliefs. Besides, nobody else knows whether I’m sleeping on the sofa or not, don’t worry about it. You should go to sleep. It’s late!" After saying that, Adam went to the sofa with his pillow.

"Adam..." She was the one who wanted to get married, and after getting married, making her own husband sleep on the sofa felt like such a wicked thing to do, both from saying it and thinking about it, "You sleep on the bed!"

"Well, I snore, and you won’t sleep well if I’m there!"

Actually, he wasn’t afraid of snoring loudly; what worried him more was that he might get too excited at night and end up embracing her directly, which would truly frighten her. He didn’t want to scare his goddess on the first day of their new marriage. How else would they have a beautiful first impression?

Mr. Adam automatically ignored the fact that this wasn’t their first encounter and that there was no such thing as a first impression anymore!

"Snoring?" Ariana’s eyebrows furrowed again at these three words, and she sat up from under the quilt, looking at the man incredulously. Clearly, with his looks, he could compete with the male leads of Korean dramas. How could someone as good-looking as him snore? She couldn’t even begin to think that it was possible.

If Mr. Gordon hadn’t called to tell her that Adam was her loyal fan, daydreaming daily about marrying her, she might have seriously suspected that this man was afraid she’d take liberties with him and thus didn’t dare to share the bed!

"Yes!" Adam said, then quickly shook his head as if he remembered something, "No, that’s not right. I only snore when I’m particularly tired and sleep at night, just so happens I’m quite exhausted today!"

Adam was nearly driven to tears by his own stupidity. He’d actually admitted to snoring! If she looked down on him for that, how could they have a future?

"Pfft!"

To his surprise, Ariana’s reaction to his statement was completely unexpected. "Adam, I’ve married you. I can’t possibly keep you from getting into bed just because you’re too tired and snore, can I?"

After a pause, Ariana decisively got out of bed, walked to the sofa, and brought his quilt over to the bed. "I’m the one who’s going to marry you; it’s me who wants to be married. Why should I make you sleep on the sofa?"

Even if she were to act coy, there had to be some reason behind it, right?

"But... but..."

"There are no ’buts.’ This bed is two meters four; it could easily fit four people. Isn’t it spacious enough for the two of us?" Ariana raised an eyebrow, looking at him amusedly. "We could even put several pots of water in between us with ease! What are you so afraid of?"

She sighed after another pause. "Or are you saying that you can’t stand, not one bit, the idea of sleeping in the same bed as me? If that’s the case, then you take the bed and I’ll sleep on the sofa!"

The sofa was large, but for a man of his size, it would be uncomfortable; it certainly wouldn’t be as comfortable as the bed!

"How could that be right? How could I let a woman sleep on the sofa?"

"And why not?" Ariana was getting a little frustrated by his stubbornness. "The wedding is mine to have; if you don’t want to share a bed with me, then it’s only right for me to sleep on the sofa!"

"No, no, no, who said I don’t want to share a bed with you? I would be more than willing to sleep in the same bed as you!"

Hearing this, Adam quickly denied it. He couldn’t let his goddess misunderstand that he didn’t want to be with her. There would be no future if he upset her due to a misunderstanding. "Actually, I’m just worried that some of my sleeping habits might disturb you!"

For instance, dreaming about telling his goddess that he’d ’give her back 300 taels’ and even have monkey children with her. After all, a man who has been single for too long naturally has some abnormal fantasies, but he wouldn’t dare to articulate these to Ariana.

Otherwise, she would definitely be shocked—you never know...

"No worries, who doesn’t have some bad sleeping habits? We’ll have to adapt to each other, right? Otherwise, we can’t possibly spend a lifetime not sharing a bed, can we?"
