149 Sleep (2/2)

”are you really worthy of my brother's love, mingxia?” she murmured.

a complicated string of emotions covered her eyes as she moved closer to the sleeping woman.

*

when han meixiu finally went out of the bathroom with her emotions all over the place, she found liu zijian sitting on the single sofa.

upon observing clearly, it seemed that the young man was sleeping.

han meixiu walked in tip-toed towards the man.

'he's really sleeping!' she exclaimed inwardly.

it simple meant she could look at him without feeling embarrassed.

she felt extremely excited as she moved closer.

she hovered around the sleeping man and her eyes were clearly feasting on what their seeing.

she actually wanted to touch him but was afraid that he might wake up thus she controlled herself and got satisfied by merely looking.

his profile was stunningly ravishing despite the trace of fatigue. it was probably because of the mellow light that covered the entire room that made him an attractive 'prey' for her.

han meixiu saw startled.

what's wrong with her?

how could she associate a man as a 'prey'?

she's the predator?

when she's about to leave to calm herself as she simply couldn't believe she could think like that, she was grabbed and in a split of second, enclosed by a pair of warm arms.

”have you memorized the face of your husband now?” liu zijain he huskily said. his eyes were slightly opened and a playful smile was pasted on his face emitting a seductive aura.

han meixiu who found herself sitting on the young man's lap, couldn't utter a single word but she nodded as she foolishly looked at him.

'damn!' she actually nodded. it meant she admitted she was looking at him for too long to memorize every inch of his face. she must have been bewitched!

”good. remember it well.” liu zijian said. ”you can sleep first.” he continued and stood up. he then guided the young woman onto the bed before he went inside the bathroom.

han meixiu who was now sitting on the bed was feeling nervous.

would he do something after taking a bath?

she couldn't explain what she's feeling.

but they're really husband and wife, it's normal for something to happen, right?

surprisingly, she's not against it.

she was halfheartedly scolding herself for being shamelessly excited.

she lied down and planned to wait for him to finish taking a bath.

unfortunately, she was too exhausted that her plan to pretend to be sleeping failed. she really slept for good.

when liu zijian went out of the bathroom, the young woman was already in the far away dream land.

it reminder him of the first time he saw her sleeping and the reaction she exhibited after she woke up.

seeing her peacefully sleeping on the bed, he couldn't explain the relief and warmth he's feeling.

after removing the piece of towel covering him, he lied down next to her and pulled her closer just like what he always did.

this kind of warm and relaxing feeling to end the day, was something he didn't want to trade with anything.

”you've gone long enough. don't disappear again.” he softly whispered as he kissed her forehead and he finally closed his eyes leaving a slight and contented smile on his face.
