211 Did She Plan on Holding Her Bladder? (1/2)
Yan Rusheng turned around and lay down on the bed.
He shut his eyes, and it looked like he wasn't planning to say another word.
Xuxu's eyes trailed over his good-looking face, and after struggling internally for a while, she tiptoed cautiously to the other end of the bed. She gingerly lifted the blanket and laid herself down as carefully as she could.
She lay sideways with her back facing Yan Rusheng. She moved closer to the edge, and any movement she made could cause her to fall off the bed.
It was the first time someone had lain next to him on his bed.
Never in Yan Rusheng's wildest dreams did he see himself sharing a bed with Wen Xuxu one day. And as husband and wife, no less.
'You're like a tigress. No one will marry you when you grow up.'
'Yan Rusheng, I dare you to repeat yourself!'
He glanced askance at the tiny woman who was sleeping so cautiously at the edge of the bed. His expression was filled with tenderness.
He was worried that Xuxu might not be able to sleep at night. So Yan Rusheng consulted a Chinese physician to prescribe some medicine to calm her nerves and to nourish her body. She would take it with milk before she slept.
For Xuxu, even though the person lying next to her was someone she loved and feared, she couldn't suppress the drowsiness that washed over her. She quickly fell asleep despite being on tenterhooks.
Yan Rusheng observed her how her body undulated as she breathed. He knew she was fast asleep when her breathing became regular and steady.
He moved... and inched slowly towards her.
He didn't want to wake her up and merely wanted to move closer so that he could smell the fragrance in her hair.
He took a lock of her hair and twirled it between his fingers. He could hardly contain himself just by breathing in her delicate scent.
Unexpectedly, he gradually felt calm and peaceful as he listened to her steady breathing.
Wen Xuxu, you promised that you'll never leave me.
...
Drinking a glass of milk did help her to fall asleep, but the drawback was that she needed to relieve herself at night.
