Li Shengxiao settled in, and Rong Yan had no choice but to continue playing the role of his devoted caretaker, preparing his bath water and brewing his porridge, changing his bedding.
Fortunately, she had bought extra sets of sheets and duvets during her last big shopping excursion; otherwise, he would have had to sleep in her dogâs bed tonight!
Rong Yan had a thing about smells.
Apart from her darling Little Bao, she didnât want her bedroom tainted with any maleâs scent!
After changing the bedding, Li Shengxiao had finished his porridge.
âYou wait, Iâll take care of it,â Rong Yan said as she saw him getting up and hurriedly scurried over, instinctively snatching the bowl from him.
While pushing him forward, she said, âLeave all this to me. Youâre a patient; go and rest. Iâve already made your bed with fresh linens; make do and sleep for a bit. Doctor Cui will come to pick you up after heâs done with his work.â
âWhat about you?â
Li Shengxiao was wearing a light silver silk pajama set. Such a flamboyant color could easily give off a nouveau riche vibe on someone else, but on him, it perfectly complemented his distinguished aura. The term âcasually handsomeâ must have been coined to describe this man!
Rong Yan had seen this manâs peerless beauty countless times on television, but seeing him face-to-face was still somewhat breath-taking.
He was just too fuckinâ good-looking!
It was downright criminal!
She quickly averted her eyes, pushing him inside while saying naturally, âOf course, Iâm going to tidy up the room. After youâve slept, Iâll clean up the kitchen. The clothes in the washing machine arenât done yet. I probably wonât sleep until later; you go to bed first. Iâll call you when Doctor Cui arrives.â
Li Shengxiao watched her flitting about like a little wife, deeply imprinting the image on his mind. His pale lips pursed into a straight line as he watched her walk back to the living room with a towel in hand.
Two hours later, Rong Yan finally finished hanging the last piece of clothing on the rack. She stretched with abandon, feeling sore all over.
Damn, Iâm exhausted!
After doing a few simple stretching exercises to loosen up her muscles, Rong
Yan headed toward the bedroomâ¦
Wonder if the person inside has fallen asleep yet?
She gently opened the bedroom door. The room was pitch black, silent except for the sound of breathing, appearing as though he had fallen asleep.
Tiptoeing over to the bed, Rong Yan reached out to grab her phone.
Just as she was cautiously stretching out her hand, the sound of someone turning over in bed next to her sent a jolt of fear through her, and she froze in place.
When the sound of turning settled into steady breathing once more, she let out a long sigh of relief.
That scared the life out of her; she thought sheâd woken him upâ¦
As Rong Yan picked up her phone, ready to retreat, something unexpected happenedâshe didnât even realize she had disturbed the man on the bed, but he suddenly seized her accurately in his sleep!
Fuck, whatâs going on?!
With the phone in hand, Rong Yan tried to quietly slip away, but the grip on her was firm as if clamped by iron tongs, inescapable.
She tried several times without success and finally gave up, leaning over and whispering into the ear of the person feigning sleep, âLi Shengxiao, are you asleep? My handâ¦â
Before she could finish, she was suddenly pulled into a whirl, tumbling down onto the man!
Rong Yan was completely stunned.
The sleeping person seemed to mistake her for a large pillow, making a muffled noise and furrowing his brow as if he was about to wake up.
His arm was around her waist, the heat searing against her skin, especially since his breath was strangely warm on her face..
