Having overheard that, Han Zhuoli instantly shot his head up from his laptop . Behind Lu Man’s back, he quietly raised a thumbs-up at Auntie He .
Great job, Auntie He!
“Hehe, have a good rest!” Afraid that Lu Man would still hold her back, Auntie He ran away as if escaping from something .
Lu Man: “…”
Feeling helpless and resigned, Lu Man closed the door . Turning her head around, she saw Han Zhuoli’s gleeful face . “You are sleeping here tonight?”
“Yeah . ” Lu Man nodded . “I’m afraid that you won’t listen to me and refuse to have a good rest . ”
Her voice only got softer, and her face blushed red furiously .
If she asked to stay here, it would seem as if she was being exceptionally proactive .
However, Han Zhuoli excitedly scooted a bit to the side, freeing some space next to him . “Come and sit here . ”
Lu Man: “…”
“I’ll work, while you watch your shows and learn, how great is that?” Han Zhuoli urged her, “Come on, otherwise, I will just get off the bed and carry you up here . ”
He was sick right now, how could Lu Man make him get off the bed?
Never mind . Anyway, even if they slept separately tonight, she would still stay awake worrying about him, so she might as well just stay here and watch over him .
Lu Man then went to the bathroom, carrying the pajamas with her . She took a shower and put on the skincare products given by Auntie He .
After cleaning herself up, she changed into the pajamas . When she came out, she saw Han Zhuoli completely engrossed in his work, typing with much focus . As she walked towards the side of the bed, her heartbeat sped up and she felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest .
Smelling the light, sweet fragrance that tickled his nose, Han Zhuoli raised his head and saw Lu Man standing right in front of him in her pajamas .
Even though the style of the pajamas was very conservative, and covered her up pretty well, Han Zhuoli still found her tantalizing and seductive .
Through the side of her shirt collar, her neck and collarbone were slightly visible, glistening with a light powder . It looked soft and tender as if a light puff of air or touch will break it .
Perhaps it was because Lu Man had just come out of the shower or perhaps she was feeling embarrassed that Lu Man’s face was extremely flushed red .
The Lu Man right now looked even younger than 22 years old, almost like a young lady of about 18 or 19 years old .
“Come over here . ” Han Zhuoli patted the spot next to him, his voice was strangely hoarse .
After taking a deep breath, Lu Man finally lifted the blanket and sat inside .
It was the spot originally occupied by Han Zhouli . Once she sat down, all she felt was Han Zhuoli’s warmth .
When she stretched her legs out, she accidentally touched Han Zhuoli’s leg and if she was scalded, she hurriedly moved away .
Han Zhuoli was so amused by her reaction that he chuckled . The first time they had met, she was so bold and courageous, but now she was so shy and scared like a cat .
Afraid that she would be infected too, Han Zhuoli didn’t dare to directly kiss her lips, and just pecked her on the cheek . Feeling satisfied, he sighed . “I always wanted something like this, to just be on the same bed as you . Even if we aren’t doing anything, I’m still able to see you once I turn my head, I can just touch you when I move my hand just a little bit, being able to sit elbow to elbow and leg-to-leg to you . ”
Cheeks blushing furiously, Lu Man gave a bashful smile to Han Zhuoli .
Indeed, it did feel very good and at peace .
Being so close to him .
While he worked, she would be by his side, watching her shows on her phone . Although they were just sitting together and engrossed in their own work, it didn’t feel boring or lonely at all .
Han Zhuoli’s room was very spacious . Usually, when he was all alone, it always felt a little cold and empty .
However, right now, as the two of them sat side-by-side, the room felt exceptionally heart-warming and comforting .
Outside the window, the chilly wind blew hard in the cold winter night . No matter how thick the windowpane was, they could still vaguely hear the gushing of the wind, bringing out the warmth and coziness of the room .
Lu Man turned to take a look from the window . Suddenly, she called out in surprise, “It’s snowing!”
Han Zhuoli turned his head and through the window saw crystal-white snowflakes were floating down from the dark sky like flower petals . The snowflakes shone even brighter in the pitch-black darkness of the night .
Han Zhuoli broke into a smile and said gently, “Thankfully, you haven’t left yet tonight . ”
Otherwise, he would have been worried about her in this snowy night .
