Li Yanan reached out his large hand to take the half-damp cloth from her, and whether intentionally or unintentionally, the thin calluses on his fingertips grazed her skin.
Lin Zhenxin recoiled as if electrocuted, and ran back to her room without looking back.
In contrast, Li Yanan watched her flee in a panic, a faint smile unknowingly curled at his thin lips…
When Li Yanan entered the room, Lin Zhenxin had already fallen asleep, clutching an unfinished document in her hand.
Under the quilt, there was a small mound, snug against the edge of the bed, as if a yawn could make her tumble off.
Li Yanan reached out to pull the document from her grasp, glancing at it inadvertently, but then his movements paused.
He skimmed through it, then closed it firmly and placed it on the desk.
He lifted the quilt and lay down on the side that Lin Zhenxin had left for him, thanks to this little woman, his home pants were empty underneath.
His gaze fell on Lin Zhenxin, whose face was mostly buried in the pillow, silently, Li Yanan slipped his hand under her neck and buried her face into his chest, all the while, Lin Zhenxin remained asleep.
He lowered his head, and her soft, pale lips came into view.
Asleep with a slight pout, as if unknowingly inviting something, her eyelashes thick like little fans.
He closed his eyes, blocking out that poignant sight.
He Bainian, is it?
Li Yanan let out a cold snort, then turned off the light…
Lin Zhenxin's life was very orderly, so even if she got off work very late, she'd still wake up early in the morning.
Just this morning…
She slowly opened her sleepy eyes, a bit dazed as she stared at the face magnified infinitely before her.
She belatedly realized she was held against a firm, toned chest, and instantly, she was mostly awake!
"Who are you?" Lin Zhenxin's eyes widened as she couldn't help but escape the man's embrace, but she misjudged her strength and fell heavily off the bed.
Holding her elbow, her expression was indescribably painful.
"Li Yanan." Li Yanan got up, put on his glasses, looking down at her, his face expressionless as he spoke.
Still on the ground, Lin Zhenxin watched him magically transform into the familiar Li Yanan, dumbfounded.
"Your husband." Assuming she hadn't remembered, Li Yanan lowered his voice in a displeased tone.
She knew Li Yanan was the man she married yesterday, but what she didn't know was that when he took off his glasses…
"Li… Li Yanan?"
Lin Zhenxin was pulled up by Li Yanan with one arm, she couldn't help but reach her hand towards his thick glasses.
Li Yanan didn't move, allowing Lin Zhenxin to remove the glasses from his nose, and then he heard her gasp!
She thought she must still be asleep.
It was just a pair of glasses, how could putting them on and taking them off result in such extremes?
Like he changed into another person!
Li Yanan silently took back the glasses from her hand and put them on again, pulling Lin Zhenxin over and began to rub the spot where she injured herself.
At first, Lin Zhenxin didn't notice anything, but when the growing heat became impossible to ignore, she finally…
Realized how awkward their current posture was!
Reflexively looking back, her lips unexpectedly brushed against Li Yanan's prominent nose, although just lightly!
Lin Zhenxin held her breath, her eyes filled with panic!
"Xinxin, I'm hungry… Xinxin…"
Bang bang—a knocking came from outside, and Lin Zhenxin escaped from Li Yanan's embrace as if liberated.
Pretending to ignore Li Yanan's reaction before she got up.
