Leaning against the wall beside the bed, Gu Yusheng seemed to be waiting for her to finish drinking the brown sugar ginger tea, but he was actually staring at the lamp on the desk in front of him and thinking about his own things. When he heard her voice, he turned his head with a blank expression and looked at her. He answered, "Hmm." He didn't move from his spot.
Qin Zhi 'ai was afraid that she would disturb Gu Yusheng's rest, so she said that in a euphemistic way.
Now, seeing that he didn't show any signs of leaving, she was too embarrassed to say it again.
The room suddenly became quiet.
She sat on the bed and silently drank the brown sugar ginger tea.
He stood next to her, staring at the lamp with a dull look.
After a while, Qin Zhi 'ai finished the tea in her cup. When she was about to put the cup on the bedside table, Gu Yusheng, who was like a statue, stood up and walked over.
He took the cup silently and gently put it on the bedside table. Then he took away the pillow he had put on her when she sat up to drink the tea. After signaling for her to lie down, he covered the cup for her and said, "Go to sleep."
Qin Zhi 'ai was really sleepy. His voice was low and deep, with a trace of indescribable bewitchment, making her feel a little dizzy. For a moment, she forgot that he was still there. She gently nodded, closed her eyes, and fell asleep in a daze.
…
She was asleep, so he should leave.
But Gu Yusheng's feet seemed to be filled with lead. Standing by the bed, he stared at her peacefully sleeping face without blinking, unable to move his feet.
Her period pain made her break out in a cold sweat.
She was sweating because of the heat of the brown sugar examination.
Her hair was wet, and a few soft strands stuck to her smooth cheeks.
Gu Yusheng looked at her and couldn't help but reach out his hand to gently brush them away.
She was sleeping so soundly that she didn't notice his touch.
His trembling fingers paused on her face for a long time. It wasn't until he realized he was rubbing her soft, smooth skin that he abruptly pulled his hand away. He turned around and strode over to the floor-to-ceiling window. He pushed the door open and stood on the balcony in the cold wind. He lit another cigarette.
When it was almost dawn, Gu Yusheng returned to Qin Zhi 'ai's room. Seeing that she was still sleeping soundly, he was relieved.
He knew that his behavior was inappropriate, but he still reached under her quilt and touched the hot water bag. It was already a little cold. He boiled a pot of hot water, filled the hot water bag, and put it next to her belly. He tucked her in, then left her bedroom and went to the lounge in the lobby on the first floor.
There were only two or three people on duty in the lobby. When they saw him coming, they politely walked up to him and asked if he needed any help.
He shook his head and randomly picked a U-shaped sofa. He found a comfortable position, leaned on it, closed his eyes, and slept for a while. When the quiet world became noisy again, and the sun shone through the window, he got up and went to the hotel restaurant. After a simple meal, he asked the waiter to pack a bowl of porridge and took it upstairs. He first went to Xiaowang's room to wash up, and then he knocked on Qin Zhi 'ai's door.
She was already awake. Through the door, he faintly heard a pleasant "Who is it?" He waited for about a minute, and then she opened the door with a toothbrush between her teeth.
She didn't seem to expect it to be him. She was stunned for a second, then moved away from the door, pointed at the sofa in the room, and hurried into the bathroom.
