After saying that, Lu Bochuan went to the cabinet, took out a quilt and a pillow, and proceeded to make a bed for himself on the sofa.
Then he grabbed his pajamas. I will go take a shower first.
Shu Qingqing watched his tall and straight back, reaching up to touch her nose.
Obviously, Lu Bochuan had misunderstood her intentions, thinking she did not want to... with him.
But she could not blame him for the misunderstanding. After all, she was the one who just said she was going to sleep in the study.
It was mainly because she had not reacted in time just now.
However, asking her to take the initiative and say, Lu Bochuan, let us do it, was a bit too embarrassing for her to say out loud.
After thinking for a moment, Shu Qingqing walked straight to the sofa and stuffed the quilt and pillow Lu Bochuan had just taken out back into the cabinet.
Then, she opened her suitcase.
In the winter, she liked to wear fluffy, warm pajamas, so all the ones she had brought this time were cute, warm, and conservative styles.
That would not do.
Shu Qingqing took her things out of the suitcase to put them in the walk-in closet when she suddenly noticed a velvet slip dress inside.
It must have been left behind by the original owner from when she used to live in the old house.
Shu Qingqing's eyes lit up.
She quickly put her things away, grabbed the slip dress, and changed into it.
The woman in the mirror had a beautiful face and fair skin. The lotus-pink velvet dress perfectly accentuated her curvy figure.
The more Shu Qingqing looked, the more satisfied she felt.
Now Lu Bochuan should be able to understand what she meant, right?
When Lu Bochuan opened the bathroom door, this beautiful sight was exactly what he saw.
He froze for a moment, his fingers subconsciously tightening around the towel.
Then, pretending as if nothing had happened, he walked toward the sofa.
However, seeing the empty sofa, he froze again.
The quilt...
Lu Bochuan, it is really not good to sleep on the sofa in the dead of winter. You should just sleep in the bed with me. After saying this, Shu Qingqing blinked.
In her imagination, Lu Bochuan would definitely be thrilled upon hearing this, then stride over, press her onto the bed, and the two of them would get busy...
Instead, Lu Bochuan merely nodded calmly, walked over to the bed, pulled back the covers, and lay down.
Shu Qingqing: ???
Great, this was not what she had imagined at all.
She was dressed so sexily, and Lu Bochuan actually did not get the hint?
Shu Qingqing stood rooted to the spot for a few seconds.
Finally, she could only silently walk to the bed and lie down.
A quiet room, and the two of them lying quietly on opposite sides of the bed.
The bed in the old house was huge, visually about 2.3 meters wide.
Looking at the gap between them, which was wide enough to fit two more people, Shu Qingqing gripped the edge of the blanket and scooted a little closer to Lu Bochuan.
And scooted a little more.
Phew, finally they were a bit closer.
Lu Bochuan felt the familiar fragrance getting closer and closer to him, but he did not dare turn his head to look.
His Adam's apple bobbed, and Lu Bochuan spoke, Then I will... turn off the light?
Shu Qingqing's heartbeat skipped a beat.
Was Lu Bochuan going to...
It is true that it is not quite suitable to do... mm, when it is too bright.
Turn it off, Shu Qingqing said.
The room quickly plunged into darkness.
Shu Qingqing clutched the blanket and waited and waited. Half an hour passed, and Lu Bochuan still had not made a move.
What was going on?
Was her hint still not obvious enough?
After thinking about it, Shu Qingqing simply rolled right into Lu Bochuan's arms.
He should definitely get it now, right?
Lu Bochuan was trying hard to force himself to sleep, but the warm sensation beside him was just too strong, and the alluring fragrance lingered in the air. His body could not help but grow hot.
He was a normal man, and the woman he loved was sleeping right beside him.
At this moment, his heart was going crazy with the desire to hold her, kiss her, and tear off her...
But he knew that Shu Qingqing did not want to... with him.
It was only because of the Old Madam that she was sleeping in the same bedroom as him, and she could not bear to let him sleep on the sofa for fear he would catch a cold.
That kind of thing should happen naturally when two people are mutually in love.
Right now, Shu Qingqing... did not like him that much yet.
But the restlessness in his body was too unbearable.
Just as Lu Bochuan was thinking about taking another shower, a warm touch suddenly appeared in his arms.
Lu Bochuan stiffened.
Shu Qingqing also noticed Lu Bochuan's momentary stiffness. After a thought, she reached out and touched Lu Bochuan's chest.
This hint could not possibly be any more obvious!
However, she did not know that earlier, during their silence, Lu Bochuan had assumed she was asleep.
Lu Bochuan kept his body stiff and did not dare to move for a long time, afraid of waking Shu Qingqing up.
Seeing that he was not moving, Shu Qingqing squeezed even closer into his arms. Just as she was wondering if she should just kiss him directly, her calf accidentally brushed against something.
Even if she had never eaten pork, she had seen pigs run. She was not completely clueless.
She clearly felt that Lu Bochuan's... seemed to have no reaction.
Shu Qingqing was stunned.
Was she really that lacking in charm? She was throwing herself at him like this, and Lu Bochuan actually had no reaction at all?
What exactly was going on?
She wanted to ask, but felt she could not open her mouth to say it.
Shu Qingqing silently withdrew her leg and rolled out of Lu Bochuan's embrace.
The internet said that once a man passed twenty-five, there was no difference between him and a sixty-year-old.
And Lu Bochuan was already thirty-nine.
No wonder Lu Bochuan could remain completely indifferent even after seeing her dressed so sexily.
She understood now. It was not that she lacked charm; it was that Lu Bochuan...
Shu Qingqing pulled the blanket over her head.
Just sleep, just sleep, stop thinking about this.
Little did she know, the very second she rolled away, Lu Bochuan's... finally... reacted.
She also did not know that after she fell asleep, Lu Bochuan went to the bathroom to take a cold shower.
Shu Qingqing slept until past ten o'clock.
Even though she and Lu Bochuan did not manage to... yesterday...
She still had a pretty good night's sleep.
After several days of snow, the sun finally came out today.
When Shu Qingqing was eating breakfast, she realized she was the only one in the villa.
Where are they? Shu Qingqing asked.
Aunt Liu: The Old Madam is next door at Mrs. Liu's house. A few kids who used to play with the Little Young Master came looking for him, so the Eldest Young Master took the Little Young Master out to play with them.
After finishing her breakfast, Shu Qingqing had nothing to do, so she decided to go see what Lu Xun and the others were playing.
There was a small garden in the villa area, and Shu Qingqing quickly found a group of children there.
Aunt Liu had said they were Lu Xun's old friends, so Shu Qingqing expected to see a joyful scene of kids playing, but unexpectedly, the little guys were arguing.
Lu Xun, you do not even know how to ride a bicycle, yet you insist on fighting me for it. What if you break my bike? a boy said while giving Lu Xun a push.
Lu Yu caught the stumbling Lu Xun and looked at the kid opposite them. Kids should not get physical.
The other boy snorted. So boring. You do not even know how to ride a bike. I am not playing with you anymore.
Lu Xun watched the other boy ride away on his bike, his eyes full of envy.
Seeing Shu Qingqing, Lu Xun trotted over and hugged her thigh. Mom, I want to ride a bicycle too.
Shu Qingqing patted his head. Learning to ride a bike is not that fast. How about letting your brother ride and take you for a spin first?
Lu Xun pouted. But my brother does not know how to ride a bicycle either.
Shu Qingqing was surprised. Lu Yu, you... actually do not know how to ride a bicycle?
