She released him and lay back on her pillow, wanting to distance herself from the smell: "I can't sleep alone... I'm so sleepy, so sleepy, but I just can't sleep..." She started crying miserably as she spoke.
"Alright, alright, I'm back," Mu Tianying quickly reassured her. "Good girl, let me go take a shower and I'll be right back."
"Mhm..."
Mu Tianying stroked her face, wanting to kiss her, but he felt his own smell would contaminate her, so he reluctantly gave up.
He went to have a shower, and his body now smelled of fresh shower gel. Wanqing immediately clung onto him like an octopus, taking in a deep breath: "I feel so cold..."
"If I hold you, you won't feel cold anymore."
"Mhm." Wanqing tightened her arms around him and closed her eyes. Nestled in his arms, she finally fell asleep and had a good night's sleep.
