The clouds were clear, the moon was bright, and the breeze was blowing on the willows.
The ancient castle on top of the mountain that was buried amongst the thick fog, flickered with an ancient glow.
There was a huge banquet in the dining room of the Gu Gardens. Song Qingli was holding a bowl of rice with both hands as she had nowhere to place them. She was rather helpless. "I wonder what the second young master means by this?"
"The extravagance of City A's tycoon." Gu Zechuan laughed at himself.
The corners of Song Qingli's mouth twitched. Men were indeed petty. He still had in mind what she had said to spike him.
"I've never liked extravagance and wastage. Second young master, you don't have to do this in the future. I don't find it romantic."
Gu Zechuan's eyes darkened. A faint smile appeared on his lips. "Qingli, I'm very happy to see you take care of the house like this."
Song Qingli raised her brows and glanced at him. "Second young master, you should get someone to prepare the bed for tonight. I'm going to be sharing one with you."
"I've already told them to make the preparations. You can come at any time."
No matter what she said, Gu Zechuan was able to handle it. Not only did he handle it nicely, he even rebutted her argument. Since the girl couldn't win the argument, she decided to shut up and eat.
Song Qingli picked up her chopsticks and started eating. She usually wouldn't eat much for dinner or else it would be difficult for her to fall asleep. Many actors had the habit of not having dinner and going to sleep with an empty stomach so that they would be in excellent form the next day.
However, Song Qingli couldn't go hungry for the entire night. She was already a little thin. Once she got hungry, her blood sugar would drop, causing her to feel dizzy and her legs to turn weak.
After the meal, Song Qingli sneaked upstairs alone. Sister Li had sent her three movies that could be used as a learning material and asked her to finish watching them as soon as possible. Sister Li also wanted her to have a thorough understanding of the characters.
Li Zhen had said that she could either act it out or write it out.
The moment Song Qingli received these messages on WeChat, Li Zhen immediately gave her a call. At this moment, Manager Li still had some patience in her but there wasn't much left. "Since you're new and have no experience, I gave you a little more time. I want the results at 3 p.m tomorrow."
"Tomorrow ... Tomorrow afternoon?" she repeated herself. The young girl looked at the time on her phone. It was already nine in the evening. "Sister Li, would I still have time to sleep tonight?"
"You can sleep after the movie."
"Wait…..One movie could take 2 hours, three movies would be 6 hours." Song Qingli did a rough calculation. This meant that she would have to wait until 3 am.
"What's wrong? You think that it's too little?" The sound of paper flipping was coming from the other end of the call. It seems like Sister Li was still working. "Then, how many more should I give you?"
"No, no, no! It's enough, I ... I'll definitely finish watching them tonight." The young girl hung up the phone and sighed with her shoulders despondent.
'If it's a blessing, it's not a calamity. If it's a calamity, you can't avoid it either.'
It's just three movies, let's watch them!
The Nightingale sang softly and the moon rose into the sky.
Song Qingli sneaked into Gu Zechuan's room after her shower. She wasn't going to go back to her room to sleep. If there was another rapist, she would be done for if something happened.
She snuggled into the blanket and wrapped herself in it. She was a little excited to enter a man's room so rashly. The girl sniffed the bedsheet and smelled a faint fragrance of begonia flowers mixed with the smell of cold sandalwood.
Was this how he smelt like?
She was sleeping on his bed and was wrapped in his blanket.
The young girl gulped. This was a comfortable smell but it was very unfamiliar.
Her entire face was buried in the blanket. The image of Gu Zechuan's tight muscles on his angry face when she tried to help her shower suddenly flashed through her mind.
"What are you thinking about? Song Qingli!"
The young girl patted her face and lay on the bed to watch a movie. Her eyes were wide open and she was fully focused...
Half an hour later.
Her eyes were in a daze and her eyelids were fighting themselves to keep her eyes open. Even if there were rubber strips stuck on her eyelids, it still wasn't enough to stop her from dozing off. After struggling for a long time, she finally fell asleep at the most exciting part of the movie.
At eleven o 'clock at night, Xu Hao pushed the second young master back to the entrance of the young master's bedroom. Xu Hao would always stop by the door.
It wasn't that Xu Hao was unwilling to go in but Gu Zechuan had a strong sense of privacy and he didn't like others getting into his space. Even Xu Hao, who was his assistant for years, couldn't breach this policy as well.
The man saw a larva on the bed as soon as he entered the room. She was wrapped in a white blanket and her fluffy black hair was scattered on the pillow. The scent on her body smelt as if she has just taken a shower. There was a faint pomegranate fragrance which was refreshing.
He only slowly approached her when he heard her even breathing.
When he got closer, he saw that she was still holding onto her cell phone that was playing a movie.
The man gently took the phone out of the girl's hand and turned off the movie that was playing. He reached out to push away the hair that covered her face. When he saw her face clearly, the man paused and his hand was pulled back in shock when he saw how her eyes had rolled upwards.
(ó⌣ò) She fell asleep!!
Gu Zechuan saw the rubber tape on the girl's eyelids and sighed. He gently grabbed her chin and tore off the tape with his fingers.
The young girl naturally closed her eyes, and with a soft groan, she broke free from the man's restraints and buried her face deeper into the pillow.
"Qingli, your leg is still injured. You still have to apply the medication." The man's voice was warm and it sounded like a breeze in the middle of the night.
There was no reaction coming from the person lying on the bed. Gu Zechuan sat in his wheelchair for a while before shaking his head helplessly.
In order to give her a better sleeping environment, only the bedside lamp was turned on inside the room. The orange corner that was lit up in the room had a sense of delicate gentleness.
Gu Zechuan held the girl's ankle in his hand and placed it on his leg. He used a cotton swab to dab some ointment onto the injured areas of her knees and calves. He only put it back under the blanket after the ointment had dried.
After that, he went to the bathroom and came out ten minutes later with his hair half-dry. The moment the man lay on the bed, he felt his entire body stiffen. He couldn't fall asleep but he was curious as to why Song Qingli was sleeping so soundly on a stranger's bed.
The young girl's cherry lips opened slightly, her breathing was light, and her feather-like eyelashes were long and dense.
He stared at her in a daze for a few minutes before moving half an inch closer. Her fruity scent became even stronger. He gulped with difficulty and murmured, "How can you sleep so peacefully?"
The young girl felt a little cold and subconsciously moved towards somewhere with warmth.
Little did she know that her action caused her face to almost touching the tip of the man's nose. The man's pupils shrank as he stared at the girl's lips and gulped.
"How many boyfriends have you had before?" Gu Zechuan was mumbling to himself again. He knew that she was already asleep and could not hear him.
"For you to be able to sleep so soundly, was it because you have been..." Gu Zechuan suddenly stopped talking because Song Qingli moved.
She was curled up like a ball and was getting closer to him. Initially, she was attracted to the warmth but then she felt that the temperature was getting too warm and she wanted to leave.
Emotions flashed across Gu Zechuan's dark eyes. He exerted a little strength in his arms and held onto her waist.
The girl couldn't free herself and so she stopped struggling.
That night, Song Qingli had a deep sleep and did not wake up in the middle of the night. As a result, when it was half past six in the morning, she slowly woke up from her sleep. When she saw Gu Zechuan's magnified face in front of her, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
"Ahhhhhh!"
Gu Zechuan was forcefully awakened from her sleep. His bathrobe was wide open, revealing the lines of his chest. Most importantly, his hands were still clasped tightly around the girl's waist. The two of them were like ... A loving couple!
"You pervert!!" Song Qingli pushed him away and she slapped him!
The man's face already turned unhappy when he was pushed. Who would have thought that he would get slapped?! Then, his entire body exuded a cold aura. His black eyes were fixed on Song Qingli like a vicious Wolf.
