Gu Liancheng just looked at her, melted by her fresh smile.
Years ago, in his eyes, she was still a little girl who was yet to reach maturity, but now she had finally grown into a young woman with fatal allure to him.
Eleven stepped forward and kissed his lips, her eyes curving into a smile, "Letâs sleep!"
She clung to him like a koala.
Maybe it was because she was too light, or maybe because he had enough arm strength, even such a holding posture didnât feel strenuous.
"Okay, letâs sleep."
Gu Liancheng also smiled, directly carrying her into the bedroom.
Although Ye Fei generally wouldnât appear suddenly, just in case, he still used his foot to hook the door shut after entering the room.
He sat on the bed, and Eleven pulled her legs back, not escaping immediately, but instead, she smiled and hooked him again, "I mean... just sleep."
Gu Liancheng swallowed, holding back.
"OK," he looked anything but OK, "just sleep, get off!"
Sorry, she wouldnât be able to satisfy him for the next few months.
However, if he knew why, even if she wanted him in the future, he wouldnât let her mess around.
This secret would only be told to him as a surprise after he had completely settled the matter with Shang Muxue.
Just in case, she meant just in case, if she really hit the jackpot and thus lost him, she thought, considering her own personality, she probably wouldnât cling on, and the child would be unrelated to him, whether she told him or not would make no essential difference.
Eleven got off him, tiredly crawling directly into the sheets, and blew him a kiss, "Going to sleep, goodnight."
"Goodnight, sweet dreams."
She fell asleep very quickly, and in no time, she was already sleeping soundly, and he could tell by just looking that she was sleeping deeply.
Gu Liancheng sat beside her, not yet sleeping, watching her sleeping face, tenderly brushed away the stray hairs from her face, kissed her eyes, his voice softly uncharacteristic, "My girl, you must be feeling aggrieved."
Eleven couldnât hear or feel anything.
He moved closer to her, pulled her body next to his, letting her lean into his embrace.
"Dummy, when youâre feeling aggrieved, donât you know to hide in my arms? Such a big shelter and you donât make good use of it."
The storm would pass, and sunny days would eventually come.
...
The next morning, Eleven woke up to find the bed beside her empty, and checking the time, it was already ten oâclock.
She slowly sat up, scratching her hair, muttering, "Why did I sleep so much..."
Without her phone, she hadnât set the alarm and ended up sleeping until now.
Where did he go?
She was sure she hadnât dreamt, he really did appear, the touch was very real.
Moreover, it didnât make sense for her to be sleeping in her rented place, so last night he definitely appeared and took her home, she vaguely remembered some scenes, but couldnât quite recall clearly.
After washing up, she turned over some clothes in the wardrobe.
Her clothes were scattered in different places, some in his palace-like luxurious villa, others in the Sea View Villa, and the rest here.
After rummaging through, there was only some formal attire like blazers left, and she could only find a loose, wide-strap long dress, which was considered light home wear.
After changing, she didnât see any slippers and just went out directly.
The apartment wasnât big, she could see everything else just by stepping into the living room, and there was a figure in the kitchen.
"Morning," she greeted.
