As he tucked her in, he heard her furrow her brows and mutter about water.
He hurriedly walked to the open kitchen and made a pot of hot water. He added some mineral water to the most suitable temperature, then brought it to the bedroom and carefully fed it to her.
After she finished the water, Xia Shangzhou gently laid her body flat on the bed. Just as he was about to get up and leave with the glass of water, she suddenly flipped over on the bed, reached out her arms, and wrapped them around his waist.
Xia Shangzhou was so shocked that his fingers trembled and he almost knocked the glass of water to the floor.
He was stunned for a while before he forced himself to calm down. Then he slowly turned his head to look at her on the bed.
After drinking the water, she seemed to feel a lot more comfortable. She closed her eyes and fell into a deeper sleep.
She had the habit of hugging a pillow when she slept, so he thought she probably thought of him as the fox on her bed at home.
However, it wasn't the same thing for her to hug him like that. He grabbed a pillow from the side and wanted to switch places, but when he moved slightly, her brows furrowed. He was so frightened that he didn't dare move.
However, it was a little uncomfortable for him to twist his body like that while she was hugging him, so he adjusted his movements to find a more comfortable position to lean against the headboard.
He was comfortable, but she probably didn't feel comfortable hugging him. Her arms around his waist moved again and again, and then her head, which was lying on the pillow, suddenly leaned against his chest. Then, as though she felt comfortable in this position, her entire body became completely docile and quiet.
It was very quiet in the room. The unique fragrance of her body mixed with the smell of alcohol endlessly burrowed into his nostrils.
Her hair smelled the best. He didn't know what brand of shampoo she used, but it emitted a faint, almost indiscernible fragrance.
Xia Shangzhou's breathing gradually became a little unsteady. He didn't dare look at her again, so he turned his head and looked at the night view outside the window.
As the night slowly deepened, she fell into a deeper sleep.
In the quiet space, he could clearly feel her heartbeat and her breathing.
Such a scene was so illusory, yet so real.
He lay in the same position for a long time, but he didn't dare move. He was afraid that if he moved, it would be like the countless dreams he had in the past, and everything would be gone...
Time passed very slowly, but he especially liked this slowness.
He leaned against the headboard, alternating between sleeping and waking. His heart raced and his lips broke into a smile... It wasn't until the sky turned white in the east that he slowly loosened his grip on her waist. Her head rolled off his chest and onto the pillow beside him.
Losing the weight on his chest made him dazed for a moment. Then he turned his head and looked at her.
She didn't show any signs of waking up, but he didn't stay there any longer. He tiptoed up, grabbed a glass of water, and left the bedroom.
He lay down on the sofa and closed his eyes to catch up on sleep. After lying down for a while, he suddenly placed his hand on his chest, where she had been sleeping the whole night.
At eight o 'clock, Xia Shangzhou was woken up by his alarm. He pushed open the bedroom door and took a look inside, only to see Lin Jiayi sleeping soundly on the bed. Not waking her up, he headed straight to the bathroom to take a shower before changing into a set of clean clothes. After which, he headed out to buy breakfast.
