Seeing him walking away, Li Xiaoyou was really shocked.
But she couldn't stop him, because even if she stopped him, she didn't know what to do. Whether to continue to challenge his male dignity or what, she didn't know at all.
Then, since Mu Chenfeng walked away, Li Xiaoyou never saw him come back.
Until it was time to go to bed, Mu Chenfeng still didn't come back.
Li Xiaoyou pricked her ears to listen to all the sounds. It wasn't until she heard familiar footsteps that her heart suddenly shook.
She didn't know how long it would take for one person to become familiar with another person, but she was familiar with them.
His breath, the smell of his body, his voice, and the sound of his footsteps. She could even guess his movements.
"Bang...bang...bang" came out as a small sound of the soles of her feet touching the floor, and she concentrated her hearing even more.
Suddenly, the footsteps paused, seeming to hesitate.
Li Xiaoyou clutched the quilt tightly, seeming a little nervous about his entrance.
Unexpectedly, the footsteps stopped for a moment, but then they continued to sound.
Li Xiaoyou got out of bed quietly and pressed his ear against the door.
"Click" the door next door was opened, and she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
A feeling like being relegated to the cold palace suddenly arose, and she suddenly realized that the concubines who fell out of favor in ancient times were nothing more than this.
With nowhere to vent his grievances, Li Xiaoyou moved back to the bed pitifully step by step.
It was obviously for his own good, wouldn't it be good to solve the problem as soon as possible!? What did she do wrong? She went to the guest room to sleep and ignored her.
The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she became. When she found out, she was so angry that she burst into tears.
But she didn't dare to speak too loudly, for fear that he would hear her, and if she got angry, she would be the unlucky one in the end. She was not his, so she must not be pampered.
She still understands this truth, and it doesn't mean that people have to bow their heads under the roof. But she really can't anger him, otherwise her adoptive father...
"Alas..." Li Xiaoyou sighed and lay back down again.
The crystal table lamp on the side was shining, and the whole room was filled with dim light.
She didn't know whether it was because her aunt was a little uncomfortable or because she felt sad, but she just couldn't fall asleep. She couldn't sleep as soon as she closed her eyes. She tried many times but still couldn't fall asleep.
This seemed to be the only time in this month that she fell asleep alone.
It’s a bit unaccustomed!!
"Alas..." She sighed again, lifted the quilt over her head, and forced herself to fall asleep.
After counting countless sheep, Li Xiaoyou finally fell asleep...
It's quiet at night.
A dark figure slowly approached the sleeping person on the bed. After he stood still, he even stretched out his hand to tuck the corner of the quilt for the little person who was kicking around on the bed.
It's still summer, but she doesn't like air conditioning, so the air conditioning in the room is turned off. It's still a bit hot at night, but she covers herself with the quilt, and there is still a small amount of sweat on her forehead.
Her delicate brows were slightly wrinkled, as if she had had an unhappy dream.
Mu Chenfeng's eyes moved, feeling in vain.
He didn't understand why he waited for her to fall asleep and came to see her, he just wanted to and did so.
But after doing it, he was at a loss.
He took action before he fully understood the motives behind all the actions.
It feels like I want to speak without going through my brain, which is off-putting.
