Qiao Yuyan suddenly felt that all the hairs on the back of her neck stood up.
Wen Tingyuan didn't hug her, he just fell asleep next to her.
During this period, Qiao Yuyan slept alone, and there was a quilt on the bed, so when he came, the two of them were sleeping on the same bed.
The material of the middle coat is not thick to begin with, and since two people are covered with the same quilt, sticking together like this is actually not much different from skin-to-skin contact.
She could clearly feel the other person's body temperature coming through the fabric.
Qiao Yuyan still closed her eyes and did not dare to move. Moving away now would be a bit deliberate.
It would seem even more embarrassing if the other person realized that he hadn't slept at all.
She wanted to hypnotize herself so that she could truly fall asleep, but she couldn't do it. The person was lying behind her, so she couldn't ignore him.
After a while, her legs became numb. She listened carefully to the breathing of the person behind her, but Wen Tingyuan's breathing was so light and shallow, and extremely long, that she had no idea whether he was asleep or not.
After enduring it for a while, she couldn't bear it anymore. Qiao Yuyan straightened her legs slightly, then straightened them again. Phew, she finally felt comfortable. She still had one leg left. Let's do it again...
Just when he was trying hard enough to turn over slightly, he heard a clear chuckle, "I'm not asleep. You can turn over if you want. You won't disturb me."
In the darkness, Qiao Yuyan could clearly feel that her face was burning red. She simply turned over and lay on her back, then hesitantly said: "I thought you were very sleepy."
Wen Tingyuan turned over to her side, lying on his side next to her, as if looking at her, "I haven't slept at home for a long time, and I couldn't fall asleep for a while."
Home?
Qiao Yuyan was suddenly touched by this word, so in Wen Tingyuan's heart, this place is home?
He has lived for twenty years, and has been with the Wen family for less than two months. He has actually lived here for even less time. How can this be considered a home?
Not sure if it was because she didn't answer, Wen Tingyuan slowly touched his hand, took it and put it against his face.
The unfamiliar touch made Qiao Yuyan immediately want to pull his hand back, but failed. He used a lot of strength.
"Yan'er, I know you feel uncomfortable because of what I'm hiding from you, but believe me, I have no choice but to make everything clear after this matter is over."
In the darkness, Qiao Yuyan's heart seemed to be gently pulled. This feeling seemed familiar to her, but it made her feel uncomfortable.
She quietly exhaled a breath, then turned to look at the man next to her, and then stepped back slightly to make the distance between the two people wider.
The night light in the room was still on, and in the dim light, she could barely make out the outline of the man in front of her.
After Qiao Yuyan thought carefully, she finally said, "Actually, it's my problem. Don't worry about it. A man has his ambitions in all directions and always has things he wants to do. You don't have to report to me. If it involves the family, then
Tell me, if it is your own business, then there is no need."
Wen Tingyuan's expression suddenly changed, but under such light, Qiao Yuyan couldn't see it, "You said, you don't want to know?"
Qiao Yuyan thought for a while and gave an affirmative answer, "Well, I don't want to know. We have agreed a long time ago, haven't we? I just need to take care of your internal affairs.
In fact, I was a little scared, so I asked you those questions. After you left in the afternoon, I thought about it clearly. It was me who got into trouble and made things difficult for you. Don't worry! I won't do it next time."
"Yan'er..."
Qiao Yuyan struck while the iron was hot, "After the Chinese New Year and the national mourning, we have been married for three months. I will ask someone to clean up the east room and open a door there so that it will be easier for you to go to and from the study."
"What's the meaning?"
Qiao Yuyan didn't know if it was her misunderstanding. She seemed to hear Wen Tingyuan's voice suddenly a little unclear, which made her want to say something stuck.
After waiting for half a breath, she smiled and said: "You are newlyweds and living together every day. That is to let others know that you respect me and have a good relationship as husband and wife. Three months have passed and it is still like this."
People think that our sixth master is obsessed with inner curtains.
You live in the house on the east side. It is convenient for you to come to my place. It will not make people feel that there is a gap between you and me. On the other hand, it is cheaper for you. Besides, we don’t have to be so uncomfortable. You said
Woolen cloth?"
Wen Tingyuan did not answer her immediately, but waited for a while before asking: "Do you feel uncomfortable?"
This time, Qiao Yuyan was surprised. She said with a smile: "Of course I feel uncomfortable. I used to sleep alone at my parents' house. Even if they wanted to accompany me on Chinese Valentine's Day, I refused. What's more, now
.You have always been alone, how can you feel comfortable sleeping like this?"
Wen Tingyuan was speechless. In the darkness, he didn't know what he was thinking. Qiao Yuyan stopped worrying about this issue, "Are you going out in the near future? After all, the New Year will be here in two days."
The passing of the late emperor really had a huge impact. Today is the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, and the New Year is celebrated in the south. However, the capital city is full of solemnity at this time, and there is no joy at all.
I also heard some servants talking today. It snowed heavily today, as if God was mourning the late emperor, but it also seemed more and more lonely and quiet.
Wen Tingyuan only answered briefly with two words, "No need."
There was no sound after that. Qiao Yuyan felt that his mood had dropped, but she didn't know what was going on.
She no longer paid attention to it.
In fact, the way the two of them were getting along now made her a little confused, and she was not sure what attitude to adopt.
What happened this time actually gave her a revelation. From about the time she agreed to marry him, they could no longer have the same sense of boundaries as before.
There is always a rule for things in the world. If there is too much here, there must be less there. It is very fair.
Thinking about things in her mind, Qiao Yuyan soon fell asleep.
When Wen Tingyuan heard that her breathing gradually became calmer, he became more and more irritable and unable to sleep. Over the years, he has rarely been troubled by such emotions, but now...
well……
He sighed softly in his heart, and suddenly thought of a sentence - it is your own fault.
When you made this choice in the first place, you should have known the consequences now.
He turned to look at the face of the person next to him, smiled bitterly, and then grabbed the other person's hand regardless of the quilt, stretched her fingers, and interlocked with hers.
He noticed that Qiao Yuyan seemed to be trying to break away, but instead he tightened his grip as if it was a prank.
Before dawn the next day, Pinlan knocked softly on the door. Wen Tingyuan woke up first and found that the two people's hands were still clasped together, so they immediately let go.
