Chapter 45: Quilt

Looking at the text on the phone, Jiang Ye could even imagine Gu Tuantuan's indignant little face when she sent it to him .

Jiang Ye : How long?

After a few seconds, another text came in.

Gu Tuantuan: Two hours?

Jiang Ye slowly raised the corners of his lips .

This time, Jiang Ye did not agree, and directly put forward the condition of at least one day.

He seemed to be ready for Gu Tuantuan, and still refused to budge no matter how she jumped on the other end.

In the end, Gu Tuantuan was defeated and reluctantly agreed to Jiang Ye's condition.

Jiang Ye smiled and raised his hand to knock on the door.

It opened. Gu Tuantuan stood in front of him in a set of off-white pajamas with a cartoon brown bear printed on her chest.

She pouted slightly, raised her eyes and glanced at Jiang Ye.

Without saying hello, she turned around and ran back to the bed, and laid on it.

Seeing Jiang Ye still standing at the door and looking at her with a flat smile on his face, she glanced away unwillingly, grabbed the quilt and covered her head.

Jiang Ye knew that Gu Tuantuan was having a little temper tantrum,  so he sat at the desk in the bedroom and continued to read with his head down.

The bedroom was quiet.

Gu Tuantuan was covered fully with quilt.

The air was so stuffy that he couldn't breathe.

She held back for a while, but finally , she couldn't stand it anymore and quietly peeked her head out.

A pair of big eyes appeared first. She peeked at Jiang Ye, who was sitting with his head down and reading, and found that he was not paying attention her , so she also popped her nose out of the quilt and carefully breathed the cool air outside.

It was really much better with Jiang Ye by her side.

Even the occasional rustling of the flipped pages  sounded so reassuring.

The only fly in the ointment* is that the ceiling lights are a bit harsh, making it difficult for her to sleep.

(*The only bad thing in a good situation)

"Hey!"

Gu Tuantuan deliberately made a rude look appear on her face and shouted at Jiang Ye.

He raised his head with a question on his face.

"I can't sleep with the lights on like this."

Gu Tuantuan said stubbornly. She knew that her requirements were a bit too much, but she had lost to him before , and now she  cannot allow herself be the weaker party .

Jiang Ye didn't think too much, got up and turned off the light.

He was naturally unable to continue reading his book.

Jiang Ye picked up his phone and deliberately muted it.

After a while

"Jian Ye"

Gu Tuantuan's voice sounded in the darkness.

"What's up?"

After a few seconds of silence, the only light in the night disappeared with a click.

"Go to sleep."

"Yeah.. ok "

Gu Tuantuan felt wronged . She didn't expect him to be so well-behaved.

The bedroom was quiet again, and the moonlight outside the window poured  through the curtains.

Jiang Ye looked at Gu Tuantuan's direction. He could vaguely discern the outline of her body on the bed.

He can't read books, and he can't use his phone

Jiang Ye gradually became sleepy as he sat there.

He closed his eyes and leaned his head back against headrest of the chair with his arms crossed.

"Jiang Ye"

Gu Tuantuan's voice sounded again.

Jiang Ye opened his eyes and slowly said

"Hmm ?".

"That"

Again and again, Gu Tuantuan, who was used to pretending to be tough, lost her confidence, her voice small and timid,

"When you're sitting on the chair , you look like a motionless black shadow , so scary   Can you Can"

She was also out of ideas.

""

In the darkness, facing Jiang Ye's seemungly terrifying shadow, Gu Tuantuan uneasily called out again,

"Jiang Ye?"

Suddenly, she could vaguely see Jiang Ye's figure standing up, followed by a rustling sound.

It sounds like as if he's undressing?

Gu Tuantuan clutched the quilt tightly.

She couldn't see it clearly in the dark, which made her a little confused,

"Jiang Ye, what are you doing?"

The figure hung the clothes he took off on the back of the chair and walked towards Gu Tuantuan.

The bed sank, and her quilt was suddenly lifted.

A gust of cold air rushed into her quilt, making her shiver from the cold.

But then she felt a hot body clinging to her back, and the quilt was  tightly wrapped around her  again.

An arm was also wrapped around her waist, pulling her tightly into the arms of the person behind her.

Jiang Ye's slightly tired and hoarse voice whispered into her ears,

"Sleep."
