Chapter 695: Cuddling in Bed, She Acts Coy in His Arms (Part 2)
His strong arms seemed to exert little effort, easily lifting her from the head of the bed to the foot, where she sat.And when he held her, his palm was always clenched into a fist, not offending her, keeping a gentlemanly distance.
Sheng Yi’s ear lobes turned red, and then her entire ears followed suit, her cheeks feeling so hot it was like she had a fever. She raised her hand to cover her face, just about to say thank you, when she heard his voice above her head: "Don’t sleep yet, dry your hair before you sleep. Just sit, I’ll do it."
She responded dully: "...Oh."
Then, feeling it was too much trouble for him, she said hesitantly before he turned on the hairdryer: "Let me do it myself. I’ve already troubled you with so many things tonight."
Thinking he would say, "It’s no trouble."
But she heard him say, "Since it’s already trouble, one or two more things won’t make a difference."
Sheng Yi: "..." Mom, I really want to marry this man...
If I can’t marry him, I’ll be his daughter in the next life!
While distracted, the buzzing sound reached her ears quickly.
His fingertips were long, lifting her hair into his palm, with gentle movements that grasped the ends, separating a wet strand. Her hair fluttered freely under the blow dryer.
There was no mirror here, but Sheng Yi felt as if her scalp had grown eyes, seeing all his actions clearly.
Though she enjoyed his service, her body remained tense, not relaxing just because her hair was being dried.
The toes gripping the ground silently scratched at the surface, and then the hairdryer stopped. She touched her head and asked foolishly, "Finished so quickly?"
"Hold on a moment."
He set down the hairdryer and went to get shoes from beside the bed, placing them in front of her heels: "Put on your shoes first."
Again reminding her to put on shoes and personally bringing them to her feet. Seeing he seemed about to squat down to put them on for her again, Sheng Yi quickly put on the shoes herself. She couldn’t trouble him to put on her shoes once, and again a second time.
He was only taking care of her out of courtesy to Yuanyuan, she couldn’t take advantage by even troubling him with putting on shoes.
The buzzing of the hairdryer lasted for a long time.
Usually, Sheng Yi seldom washed her hair at home; she mostly did it outside. Outside referred to on set or at other work locations. Once in a while, when she washed her hair at home, she just casually dried it. Holding up the hairdryer made her hands tired, and she didn’t want to spend much time on it.
Dao An dried her hair completely before turning off the hairdryer.
When the hair was completely dry, it became fluffy, making her already small face appear even smaller.
"When sleeping at night, try to dry your hair thoroughly. During the day, it’s okay to be more casual." Dao An packed away the hairdryer as he said this.
Sheng Yi responded with an "Oh," and when Dao An was storing the hairdryer, she quickly climbed onto the bed, kicked the thick quilt to the floor, spread out the thin quilt, and lay on the innermost side, leaving the outer space empty.
Dao An came out of the bathroom to see the girl sitting on the bed, looking at him expectantly.
"..."
Sleeping together...
How could he hold back?
After all, with the person he loved sleeping beside him, even a saint couldn’t remain calm.
This was why he didn’t immediately agree; earlier, just her pair of moist eyes had thrown his heart into disarray. If they slept together, he’d likely be sleepless all night.
Sheng Yi knew her behavior was shameless, but having come this far, she couldn’t help it. If she were to be a bad woman, just this once, it wouldn’t be awkward if they never met again; besides, she wouldn’t do anything.
Having made up her mind, Sheng Yi saw the man standing there, showing no sign of coming over, so she hurriedly patted the pillow and thoughtfully pulled back the thin quilt.
Even without urging him aloud, her silent actions were an expression, inviting him to come over quickly.
Dao An hesitated for more than ten seconds, and after hesitating a while longer, saw the light in the girl’s eyes slowly dimming. He couldn’t bear to see her saddened, so he stepped toward the bed.
