When Xie Jingyu exited the bathroom, his eyes glanced at the bed. Yu Huiyin had already laid down and was asleep.
She still had no phone, so there was nothing for her to kill time with, and the day had been eventful, not to forget that she was still injured. She needed her rest.
Seeing her lay on the bed, her back facing the inside of the bed, facing Xie Jingyu's side, his throat went dry, and his adam's apple bobbed.
He went to turn off the lights and slowly climbed into the bed. Here, he took the blanket and covered himself, but he could not sleep. Yu Huiyin was right beside him. She was so close that he could hear her breathing, he could feel the heat radiating from her body.
He was struggling on the inside. He should not touch her, he should just let her sleep, but his hands were itching to drag her into his embrace.
Without realizing it, he had stretched out and dragged her into his warm embrace, her face, which previously had been turned away from him, was now facing him, her warm breath spraying on his naked chest.
Yu Huiyin did not wake up from being turned over and dragged into his embrace. Instead, she muttered a few words, pouted her lips and found a comfortable position in his arms, one arm used as a pillow, and her hands firmly placed on the sturdy chest in front of her.
Feeling the heat in front of her was like a warm water bottle, Yu Huiyin even inched closer and closer to it in her sleep. Eventually, her head was stuck on his shoulder, and her body was nearly sprawled all over Xie Jingyu, trying to catch as much warmth as possible.
Unfortunately, it was not a position that Yu Huiyin had ever been in before. She had shared a room with her brother, but they had their own beds. She had never slept on a bed with someone before, and now she was practically lying on top of someone. It was hard for her to find a comfortable position to lie in, and she was squirming around on top of Xie Jingyu, her body rubbing him, her breath hitting him.
The movements caused Xie Jingyu's breathing to deepen, his eyes turned dark, and his body was as if on fire, reacting in every single cell.
However, Yu Huiyin, who was still asleep, was unaware of what torment she was giving Xie Jingyu. He could not help but curse her as being heartless!
The hand that had been holding Yu Huiyin on the shoulder slowly inched downwards. He began feeling the arms, but there was a long-sleeved nightgown in the way, making it impossible for him to touch the skin that his fingers craved for.
His hands continued down until they reached her waist, where they placed themselves possessively on top of it. The waist was so slim that he feared it would break if he put too much strength in, but now the woman was entirely within his embrace, he held her by the waist, and her head was resting against his shoulder.
Her two small hands were resting on his chest, it felt so good, but deep inside, it was not enough for Xie Jingyu. He wanted to touch the skin, he wanted to kiss her, but he had promised not to do anything she would dislike, and he wished to prove to her that he was worthy of her trust. He was not going to break his promise. At least not on the first night.
Enjoying the fragrance that was unique to Yu Huiyin, and feeling how she was snuggled up within his arms, Xie Jingyu was experiencing the most enjoyable but also the most tormenting night ever.
He got no sleep at all; all he could do was to focus on Yu Huiyin's closeness.
When Yu Huiyin woke up, it was already eight in the morning. Usually, she would wake up much earlier than this, but she was simply too exhausted, and her body needed rest to overcome her injury.
The first thing she noticed when she woke up was that she was lying on top of something warm.
Next, she felt something weighing down her waist. But the feeling of laying like this was immensely safe and comfortable, so she did not open her eyes immediately, but instead reveled in the warmth.
It was not before her mind was turning a bit soberer than she suddenly began questioning, what was it she was sleeping on? What was it that was holding her down?
She slowly opened her eyes and what she saw left her dumbfounded. Her head was resting on Xie Jingyu's naked shoulder, her hands gently lying on top of his chest. His hands and arms were holding her waist. They indeed seemed like a loving married couple!
Seeing this shocked her silly, and she sat up with a shock. How had she ended up sleeping in such an ambiguous position?
Her movements made Xie Jingyu, who had been resting with his eyes closed, open them, and looking at Yu Huiyin with a bit of amusement in his eyes. However, his face was expressionless.
It was hard to guess what his thoughts were.
"Last... Last night, what happened?" Yu Huiyin could not help but ask as she gulped slightly. Looking at Xie Jingyu, she quickly looked away again. He was half-naked! This was too much temptation, even to someone like her!
Noticing her dodging eyes, Xie Jingyu felt accomplished, but he did not show it on his face. "You slept a little unsteadily last night," he said casually. "I was being attacked by you in your sleep. I had no choice but to hold you down, or I might have been violated."
