Chapter 199 How to be in his arms
Qiao Jingyu bit her lips tightly and said nothing, but her slightly trembling shoulders and occasional sobs could not escape Duan Yuchen's sharp ears. Although she tried hard to control her emotions, Duan Yuchen could still clearly detect her crying.
Duan Yuchen's hearing was extremely sensitive. Just by listening to Qiao Jingyu's breathing, he could easily catch the subtle changes in it and accurately judge the ups and downs in her heart at the moment.
Seeing Qiao Jingyu crying silently in front of him, Duan Yuchen couldn't help but sigh in his heart: his girl is really too kind-hearted! How can one not feel pity for such a weak and compassionate look?
After the wound was properly treated, Qiao Jingyu still couldn't calm down completely. She quietly packed up the medicine box, her movements were slow and heavy, as if every move carried the unspeakable sadness in her heart. While packing, she tried to adjust her mood, trying to temporarily bury the sadness and anxiety deep in her heart.
Qiao Jingyu took a deep breath, raised her head and looked at Duan Yuchen, and asked softly: "Third brother, where...can I sleep tonight?" Qiao Jingyu's voice was a little nasal, and it was obvious that she had not yet completely come out of the sadness just now.
Hearing Qiao Jingyu's question, Duan Yuchen was stunned for a moment, then raised his lips slightly, revealing a helpless smile and said: "Originally, I was planning to arrange for you to rest in the next room, but... now it seems that I'm afraid you can only sleep in this room with me."
"Huh?" Qiao Jingyu couldn't help but widen her eyes when she heard that, and looked at Duan Yuchen with a puzzled look on her face, as if she couldn't understand what he meant for a moment. Duan Yuchen put down the towel he was using to wipe his hair, shrugged and explained: "If I heard correctly, I seemed to hear grandma locking the door from outside just now. So, tonight we can only sleep in the same room."
"What?" After hearing this, Qiao Jingyu felt as if she had received an electric shock. She hurriedly put down the medicine box in her hand and ran towards the door in a hurry. She stretched out her right hand, tightly grasped the door handle, and twisted it twice with all her strength, but the door did not move at all.
Qiao Jingyu gritted her teeth and refused to give up. She increased her strength and twisted the door a few more times, but the result was still disappointing. The door was still stubbornly closed, with no sign of opening.
At this time, Duan Yuchen had already slowly packed up the medicine box and gently placed it on the shelf beside him. He looked at Qiao Jingyu's anxious look, shook his head helplessly, and explained softly: "My grandmother has always hoped that I can get married and start a family soon, so sometimes her behavior may seem a little weird and anxious."
Qiao Jingyu was speechless after hearing this. She thought to herself: This is too hasty! Besides, she and Duan Yuchen are just pretending to be a boyfriend and girlfriend. Even if they are locked in the same room, can they immediately become a real couple? This is obviously impossible!
Just as Qiao Jingyu was thinking to herself, she saw Duan Yuchen turned around and walked towards the cloakroom. Not long after, he changed into a set of loose and comfortable gray pajamas and walked out. At this time, he also had a white shirt in his hand.
"I don't have any clothes suitable for girls, so you'll have to make do with this tonight. You can wear this shirt as pajamas. Also, there are new toiletries on the sink." Duan Yuchen said as he handed the white shirt to Qiao Jingyu.
Facing Duan Yuchen's kindness, Qiao Jingyu quickly waved her hand and refused: "No need, Third Brother, I can just deal with it for one night, it's okay."
"It's not comfortable to sleep like that. Don't worry, I can't see it."
"Third brother, that's not what I meant. I'm afraid of getting your clothes dirty."
"It's okay if you get dirty, go wash up!"
"Thank you, Third Brother!" Qiao Jingyu took the white shirt from Duan Yuchen's hand and walked into the bathroom.
Qiao Jingyu gently closed the bathroom door, and then leaned against it as if she had lost her support. She held her heart, which was beating like a frightened deer, with one hand tightly, and supported herself on the door with the other hand, gasping for breath. Every breath seemed to use up all her strength, and after a long time, the rapid heartbeat and disordered breathing gradually stabilized.
After taking a shower, Qiao Jingyu took Duan Yuchen's white shirt from the shelf. Although she knew very well that Duan Yuchen's clothes would not have any unique smell of his, for some reason, when she put on the shirt, a strange and indescribable feeling came over her - as if she was being tightly embraced and surrounded by the faint scent of Duan Yuchen.
The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. Especially when she thought about the close contact between this shirt and Duan Yuchen's skin, her face instantly turned red like a ripe apple, spreading all the way to her ears. She hurried to the sink, hoping to use cold water to calm herself down a little.
Standing in front of the mirror, Qiao Jingyu raised her eyes shyly, and what came into her eyes was a face with blushing cheeks like the sunset in the sky. Duan Yuchen's originally well-cut white shirt now looked particularly loose and bulky on her petite body, but it just outlined her slender waist and exquisite curves, which added a different kind of sexiness and charm.
As the saying goes, "women are most attractive when they wear men's white shirts", this sentence was perfectly confirmed at this moment. If Duan Yuchen's bright eyes could see this scene, I'm afraid Qiao Jingyu would really spend the whole night in the bathroom.
Qiao Jingyu came out of the bathroom and saw Duan Yuchen sitting on the sofa, his slender body leaning against the sofa, his eyes closed, and he seemed to have fallen asleep.
She had originally planned to sleep on the sofa tonight, but now that he was there, what should she do?
Does this mean giving her the bed to sleep in?
Qiao Jingyu walked over with light steps. Duan Yuchen's handsome features looked even more tough and profound under the light, making people reluctant to look away. However, his brows were slightly frowned. Was he feeling unwell?
It's already one in the morning. Is it because I stayed up too late and my head hurts again? Or is it because I had a nightmare again?
Qiao Jingyu originally wanted to wake up Duan Yuchen and let him sleep on the big bed, but seeing him like this, Qiao Jingyu gently walked to the back of the sofa, put her fingers on his temples and pressed gently until he fell asleep peacefully again, then stopped the massaging.
Then she covered him with the thin blanket beside the sofa.
Qiao Jingyu just looked at Duan Yuchen quietly for a while, until her heartbeat became unstable, then she forced herself to look away and lie down on the bed.
The pillow was filled with Duan Yuchen's unique and sharp scent, which was clean and smelled good.
The next morning, Qiao Jingyu opened her sleepy eyes and saw the same deep gray color as before.
Qiao Jingyu rubbed her eyes and didn't react for a moment. She raised her head slightly, and when she saw Duan Yuchen's handsome face, she became even more confused.
How come she was in Duan Yuchen's arms?
