"Get up, what are you doing?"
Yun Xi reflexively pulled the quilt tightly around herself and moved to put as much distance as possible between them.
When she pulled away from him like this, the parts of the quilt covering Mu Feichi's body were pulled onto her.
...
He had simply fallen asleep there in his clothes, without even taking off his shoes. He lay on his side, sleeping, in the same position he had lain down in.
Seeing him lying there motionlessly with his eyes closed, Yun Xi stretched out her hand to shake his shoulder. "Hurry up and go back to your mansion."
Compared to her dilapidated little bed, his bed in his mansion had been custom-made with the best craftsmanship in the world. Why would he go out of his way to squeeze into this tiny bed with her?
Moreover, he took up two-thirds of the bed, so how was she going to be able to sleep at all?
More important, if he gets up and climbs over the wall tomorrow and encounters her grandpa, who gets up early, or someone from a neighbor's house, she will suffer enormous consequences!
The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she felt and the more anxious she became.
He was obviously taking advantage of the fact that he was certain she wouldn't dare cause a scene, so he adamantly refused to leave.
As someone who was used to being in control of every situation, this feeling of being taken advantage of made her very annoyed.
With her anger rising, she lifted her foot and kicked him twice. With his eyes closed, he grasped her ankle, Then he opened his eyes a little bit.
"Little rascal, if you continue to cause trouble, it will be dawn soon. After 25 hours on the plane, I am extremely tired, and I don't have the energy to climb out. Be good, and don't cause trouble~ I will leave early tomorrow morning."
"Why didn't you go home first if you are so tired?"
He was simply bullying her.
Yun Xi pulled her feet back. Then she looked down at the figure lying on his side with his arms crossed. She could see the fatigue on his face.
She remembered that his return flight had really taken an entire day. Any normal person would be exhausted.
Since she didn't have the heart to send him away, she had no choice but to stand up, walk around the other side of the bed, and take off his shoes for him.
Unbeknownst to her, he smiled.
Twenty hours of flying had indeed been tiring, but it couldn't compare with his overwhelming desire to see her.
So, as soon as his business had been completed, he'd asked someone to book him an overnight flight.
All the beautiful scenery in the world paled in comparison to her smile.
His homesickness had driven him crazy and reckless, so much so that he had hardly recognized himself.
It was cold that night, so Yun Xi took a quilt and put it over Mu Feichi.
The bed was too small. There was only a small sofa in the room, and the floor was too cold to sleep on. She was worried about the cold temperature if she tried to sleep on it.
She could only shrink to one side and stay in her own area. She didn't dare to move.
The sound of his steady breathing in her ears and his faint scent of mint and her fragrant scent of shower gel mixed together.
She was sure that she was bound to suffer insomnia.
Even in her previous life, she had never slept with Han Yaotian.
She had always thought that Han Yaotian was an upright gentleman, which made her think that he was a man worthy of entrusting her life to.
Her naivete had eventually led to her demise. Her so-called gentleman was simply a hypocrite and a true villain.
In this life, the time when she would meet Han Yaotian would be when she had pushed him to the top of her scheme. She thought that it was going to happen earlier than she had originally planned.
Once they met, she would have to cut all ties with him, the source of her love and hatred from her previous life.
This night, she was thinking about so many things and so many people that she didn't even notice when she fell asleep.
Mu Feichi's biological alarm clock was set earlier than Yun Xi's, and when he woke up, the alarm clock on the bedside showed that it was only 5:20 a.m.
He sat up. After a few hours of rest, he felt replenished in his strength and vigor.
Turning his head, he looked down at the figure curled up on the edge of the bed. She looked as if she would roll onto the floor if he turned over.
Her sleeping in such a safely guarded manner made him feel a bit disappointed.
Under the dim light, he reached out to turn her toward him and tucked in the quilt.
The little rascal appeared serene and lovely in his arms, in contrast to how stubborn and tough she usually appeared. In her sleep, she was like a princess.
Small, delicate, and very endearing...
