Chapter 89: Chapter 89: True Cohabitation

After Gu Yan returned to the room, she originally intended to find her suitcase to take out her pajamas and go shower, but then remembered that the suitcase had been placed in the downstairs storage room by Tang Yuxiu.

She also recalled how Tang Yuxiu looked down on her cheap stall-bought clothes, so she gave up on the idea.

In the walk-in closet, Gu Yan found her designated area and was stunned by the astonishing number of clothes before her eyes.

All sorts of clothes, from brands she’d seen to those she hadn’t, all were present, conservatively estimated at a hundred outfits!

Did this mean she was supposed to change clothes nonstop, three times a day?

Adding up all the clothes in her life so far, Gu Yan probably only had about a hundred sets!

The life of wealthy people is truly extravagant.

Gu Yan picked a relatively conservative set of pajamas, then left to take a shower. After her shower, she climbed directly into bed, but didn’t sleep.

This room is the master bedroom of the villa.

Meaning, it’s not just for her to sleep in, but Tang Yuxiu also sleeps here.

Last night, she fell asleep early and didn’t see Tang Yuxiu when she got up, so there was no odd feeling, but today was different.

Today was the true beginning of their cohabitation life, and now she was acutely aware that she would be sleeping in the same bed as Tang Yuxiu.

All her life, Gu Yan had never slept with another man.

Just the thought of it made her uneasy.

But she simply had no right to refuse.

Gu Yan rolled around restlessly on the bed wrapped in the blanket.

About half an hour later, Gu Yan heard the sound of Tang Yuxiu climbing the stairs. She hurriedly lay with her back to the door, closed her eyes, and tried to make her breathing sound as calm as possible.

Tang Yuxiu soon pushed the door open and came in; Gu Yan was so nervous her hands under the covers were sweating.

After Tang Yuxiu walked to the bedside, he stopped, seemingly observing Gu Yan. Her body stiffened, not daring to move.

Gu Yan didn’t know what Tang Yuxiu intended to do, only felt that time passed incredibly slowly, with each second becoming harder to endure.

Finally, Tang Yuxiu moved, and Gu Yan’s whole body tightened.

However, she then heard the sound of Tang Yuxiu’s footsteps gradually moving away, and then he left the bedroom, a light door-closing noise coming from the adjacent room.

Gu Yan was puzzled, not sleeping?

The room next door is the study; this late, he was still going to work?

With this arrangement, Gu Yan noticeably relaxed quite a bit.

Secretly hoping in her heart that he’d work through the night and not come to bed.

As she relaxed and given that it was already late—and that the day had been quite exhausting for her—lying on the softly inviting bed made sleep the only thing on her mind.

Initially, Gu Yan managed to force her eyes open to listen for any movements next door, but gradually she couldn’t hold out and closed her eyes, soon drifting off to sleep.

In the study, Tang Yuxiu wasn’t working, not even turning on the lights.

He stood by the window, tree shadows swaying outside, with moonlight filtering in, adding a lonely arrogance to his silhouette.

He indeed noticed Gu Yan pretending to be asleep and knew she was nervous, but for some reason, he too found it hard to relax.

Last night, he had slept in the study.

Clearly, that woman was his mistress kept for a million, so not only should they sleep in the same bed, but it would also be natural to do other things.

Yet seeing her so tense and guarded, he still retreated from the master bedroom.

Since when did he start bending his principles for someone else’s emotions?

Tang Yuxiu’s eyes grew deeper and darker in the night.

Their time together wasn’t limited to a day or two, and it was unclear how long it would last. This situation couldn’t continue indefinitely!
