Chapter 176: 176, Shi Yuhuan, do you have someone you like?
Seeing Qinghuan finally behaving herself, Shi Yuhuan didn’t budge, merely closing his eyes slowly.
At this moment, they were incredibly close.
So close that their breaths could brush against each other’s faces.
He could sleep soundly, but Song Qinghuan couldn’t. Her heart raced, and she dared not even take a deep breath.
She knew that Yuhuan hadn’t actually fallen asleep.
Honestly, she couldn’t figure him out, his gaze, his tone, his expressions, and his reasons behind everything he did.
This included his occasional tenderness, sarcasm, and indifference.
But having spent some time with him, she felt she had some understanding of him. She knew that when he didn’t smile, it didn’t mean he was angry.
She knew that when he had a cold expression, it didn’t mean he was really cold-hearted.
Of course, she also knew that when he was gentle, it didn’t mean he cared about you.
So, she couldn’t understand him, couldn’t understand why he was hugging her in his sleep now.
Although she was in his arms, she felt a certain coldness emanating from him.
This coldness wasn’t physical, but from his heart. His heart was like the Arctic snow, staying under cold temperature all year round, keeping her from daring to approach him easily.
A dark and windy night, a single man and woman together under the same covers, it certainly stirs the imagination. If she told Mei Jun that she frequently slept under the same quilt with a man without anything happening, Mei Jun would surely die of laughter.
Alas! Song Qinghuan sighed inwardly. 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝘤𝘰𝑚
There was silence for a long while, she thought Shi Yuhuan was going to sleep, but as soon as she moved, he suddenly spoke, “Sleep and stop moving.”
Song Qinghuan immediately froze, afraid to move a muscle.
Later, she felt she was too submissive. The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and so she clenched her fists and muttered angrily to herself: What can you do if I move? Are you going to eat me or what?
Shi Yuhuan seemed to know what she was thinking. With his eyes still closed, he said lightly: “If I really ate you, then you would be satisfied.”
Song Qinghuan jumped in shock, staring wide-eyed at Shi Yuhuan. My god, his eyes were still closed.
But…
But how did he know what she was thinking?
She was sure she hadn’t spoken out loud earlier.
Nary a peep from Shi Yuhuan for a while, he remained silent with his eyes closed.
After staring at him for a long time, Song Qinghuan’s eyes started to sting. She blinked her long lashes, closed her eyes a fraction to ease the strain.
Then, she continued to gaze at Shi Yuhuan’s distinct and exquisitely handsome face, and suddenly asked: “Shi Yuhuan, do you have someone you like?”
If he likes someone, she absolutely can’t tolerate this kind of intimacy.
Because it’s unfair to both him and her.
Of course, it’s also because she admitted to herself that she seems to harbor some unusual thoughts toward him.
If he does have someone he likes, she will not allow her feelings to grow, and in fact, she will kill them swiftly.
Shi Yuhuan did not respond, his steady breathing indicating that he had probably fallen asleep.
Song Qinghuan pouted and lightly waved her fists in the air over Shi Yuhuan’s beautiful face.
His eyelashes are so long, and his eyelids so thin. Song Qinghuan couldn’t help but touch them.
Seeing no reaction from Shi Yuhuan, she felt like a child who had just successfully played a prank. She bit her lip to suppress her laughter, but couldn’t help a small smirk escaping her lips.
