Chapter 216: It's good to have you here
the teaching building. Xu Yixue asked, "What's up"Li Tao clenched his fist by his side, as if worried that Xu Yi Xue would refuse. He directly straightened his neck and quickly said: "If we can get o...In the midst of clouds, water and a manor.
It is late at night, approaching dawn.
It is the darkest time of day.
Gu Xicheng went back to his room from the study. It was strange for someone who had been busy and tired all day to not sleep yet.
He gazed deeply at the alluring little vixen on the bed. With gentle hands, he pulled up a thin blanket to cover her.
His eyes darkened slightly, recalling Ye Dongyang's words before leaving, "I discovered that someone was also investigating Sister-in-law's identity during the siege. Sister-in-law may be in danger."
Gu Xicheng sighed, lying down with a defeated air and pulling her close, pressing her whole body against his chest. It was as if he wanted to melt this restless woman into his bones, no matter who she was, she could only be his.
He closed his eyes, pretending not to hear. The warmth and softness filled his arms and heart completely. He couldn't help but think that in the future, when she truly accepted him, he could hold her like this for a lifetime.
From the age of five, he had always slept alone. Used to being solitary, he had never craved companionship as much as he did now, wanting someone to sleep beside him, to share his life with.
He seemed to understand. Twenty years of loneliness, all for the day he would meet this woman in his arms, a woman with a fatal attraction to him, who would make him sink irrevocably into her embrace for the rest of his life.
Xu Yixue didn't know that at this very moment, someone had made the decision to keep her by their side for life. At this time, she was still having a sweet dream, filled with familiar and comforting scents, snuggled up next to a warm hearth, with a big hand gently patting her back behind her. She was lying very comfortably.
Moonlight cast a shadow over her long, thick eyelashes, making her eyes and eyebrows appear delicate like a painting. She slept soundly, quiet and obedient like a child, her lips slightly pouted with a hint of playful cuteness. The white nightgown she wore made her look like an angel who had strayed into the mortal world.
Gu Xi's heart skipped a beat, he couldn't help but lightly kiss her on the lips. Afraid of waking the sleeping beauty, he pressed his lips against hers for a moment before letting go without taking any further action.
Her body temperature was always slightly cool. He furrowed his brows, though with his own body heat, the blanket might have been a little warm for him, he still reached out with his other hand to pull the thin sheet over both of them.
Seeing her sleeping soundly, Gu Xicheng's lips curled into a smile, his eyes soft with affection.
At 6:00 in the morning, Gu Xichen didn't know that Xu Yixue, a computer whiz, had a good sleeping habit. She could control when she wanted to wake up and keep it within a similar timeframe. She would never oversleep. She woke up only to find herself being held, unable to move. There was also a man beside her. She then remembered that she was in Shui Zhuang.
She stared at the man, their eyes met. Gu Xicheng's voice was already pleasant, and coupled with the low, magnetic timbre after waking up, it was even more enchanting. At this moment, his gentle voice lacked that hint of coldness, captivating her heart: "Awake"
This, the sentence woke her up and made her heart race.
Xu Yixue remained silent, her hands climbing onto his neck, allowing him to hold her.
That's a strange feeling.
The feeling of being touched.
He frowned, pulling the blanket over both of them, and asked, "What's wrong"
"Having you here is great," Xu Yixue hugged him, burying her head in his chest, a hint of satisfaction playing on her lips that she didn't even realize.
Her intuition is always spot on!
The man before her will protect her.
Gu Xicheng's mood at this moment, he didn't know what words to use to describe it, only that he hugged her tighter.
To be trusted and relied upon by the person he loved, a feeling of unprecedented contentment arose in his heart. Unlike the subtle joy he felt when carefully navigating business dealings and ultimately achieving control, this was something entirely different. His heart felt full, incredibly comfortable.ish knight, you dare to treat me like this, my father will definitely not let you off!""Well, let's see if Roosevelt has the guts for it."Gu Xicheng coldly finished his words and directly ordered: "Si...
