Chapter 58: There were rays of light in her eyes
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As Nian Xiaomu lay on the bed, she could not understand this situation no matter how hard she contemplated—how did eating a bowl of noodles transition into her sleeping with Yu Yuehan…
However, she could not bear to reject Xiao Liuliu at the sight of her adorable face, let alone Yu Yuehan who doted on Xiao Liuliu.
She had heard that he disliked having people in his room from the butler.
The reason why he allowed her to stay was likely because of Xiao Liuliu.
Nian Xiaomu twisted her head steadily and looked over at the other end of the bed.
The man with a tall and straight body laid at the position furthest away from her, supporting his head under the pillow with a hand. His eyes were tightly shut, his breathing well-distributed.
It looked like he was sound asleep.
As per the usual, his handsome face was still bewitching under the faint lighting…
The bed was huge; one could avoid any body contact with the others even when there were three of them on the bed.
Nian Xiaomu gradually let her guard down.
It was very typical for her to get sleepy since she had just finished her meal.
Moreover, it was already late at night now.
She yawned and reached out to hug Xiao Liuliu, who had dawdled into her embrace. Unable to resist the sleepiness, she shut her eyes.
According to his memory from the past 20 years, Yu Yuehan had never slept with a woman that he was unfamiliar with.
He opened his eyes slowly when he noticed that the people next to him were sound asleep.
He glanced sideways at Nian Xiaomu.
The Nian Xiaomu before him, who had a lovable sleeping posture, differed from the laid-back manner and lively, quick-witted self that she had revealed in the dining room earlier.
Her eyes had glistened when she was eating her noodles.
It was such a coarse behavior, but it seemed to let others feel at ease when she was the one who did it.
Perhaps he was angry that he had allowed her to affect his emotions—he knew that she was hungry, but forced her to watch him finish an entire bowl of noodles on purpose.
He was unfathomably amused when she tried her best to act like she complied in front of him and held back her claws, but was actually so angry that her teeth itched.
To this extent, he actually agreed to Xiao Liuliu’s harmless and childish request…
“Bang!” A strange sound disrupted Yu Yuehan’s train of thought.
He raised his eyelids and discovered that Xiao Liuliu had unknowingly rolled onto the pillow from when she was still deep in Nian Xiaomu’s embrace just now.
Her slanted body fit snugly at the headboard.
She smacked her lips and hugged her pillow, her face contented.
He did not know whether to laugh or cry at her mysterious sleeping posture…
Before he could reach out and carry the little girl back to her original position, Nian Xiaomu, who was sleeping at the other end, seemed to have felt something and fumbled at the middle of the bed.
The next second, her hands made contact with his arms that were trying to carry Xiao Liuliu.
She grabbed his arms, tugged them toward her, and hugged them tightly.
Her eyes were tightly shut, but she muttered: “Xiao Liuliu, don’t move about lest you fall…”
Yu Yuehan: “…”
He shuddered and froze when his arms made contact with something soft.
With fixed eyes, he stared at the person beside him.
Nian Xiaomu was completely unaware of what she had done. She thought that the person in her arms was Xiao Liuliu, who loved to roll about in her sleep.
Yu Yuehan wanted to draw his hands away, but she tightened her hug.
She even shifted her body toward him next to his shoulders and hugged his arms firmly.
Just like a hairy crab, she sandwiched him so tightly that he was unable to move at all.
Was she… seizing the opportunity to take advantage of him?
“Xiao Liuliu, you became fatter…” After Nian Xiaomu muttered in her sleep, she hugged him and slipped into a deep sleep.
After being mistaken for a kid, a complicated look appeared on Yu Yuehan’s handsome face.
She was practically pasted on his body; his breathing felt hindered when he shut his eyes.
He wanted to push her away. The moment he raised his hands, he saw her peaceful sleeping face and lowered his hands—it was as if the demons and gods were behind this move.
