Sleep Miracle, Wife By His Side

Bo Su's hand froze in the air as he picked up the food. However, he did not bat an eyelid and managed to dispel Father Yan's hostility.

"Since the other party is a PhD student from HF University, he must be an elite talent who is devoted and focused on his career. If Shushu marries him, she will only have to take care of the household and children in the future. Since he will be in charge of earning money, it sounds like a good arrangement."

These words were clearly meant to flatter the other party, but they were actually quite insinuating. Father Yan had spent a lot of effort to nurture Yan Shu into a top student. It was not his intention for her to become a housewife.

However, Yan Shu's image as a top student in the country was overshadowed by Hai Chen's image as a global top student. Bo Su's analysis made sense. A person like Hai Chen, who was so ambitious, would never give up his pursuits for his family. When the time came, the only person who would sacrifice herself for the family would be his daughter.

With that thought in mind, Father Yan suddenly felt that Hai Chen didn't seem to be a good candidate.

Father Yan sighed and gave in to reality. "Shushu, are you willing to be a full-time housewife?"

Naturally, Yan Shu was in cahoots with Bo Su. She immediately exaggerated her resistance to becoming a full-time housewife. "Dad, you know very well that I can't differentiate between salt and MSG. I can't tell when to use a tablespoon or a teaspoon and I can't tell the difference between chives and garlic. If my husband needs me to be a full-time housewife, I will definitely wear down all his expectations for me. When that happens, it's going to be a messy ending."

Mr. Yan fell silent. He was starting to worry about his daughter's future marriage.

Bo Su looked at Yan Shu with interest. He wasn't sure if Yan Shu was really not good at housework or if she was exaggerating things just trying to get rid of Hai Chen.

Yan Shu received Bo Su's inquisitive gaze and realized that her words might have been too harsh. Not only did she repel Hai Chen, she might have also frightened off her new husband.

While Father Yan was getting up to get the wine, Yan Shu asked Bo Su softly, "Would you like a clumsy housewife like me?"

Bo Su smiled and said, "If it were any other woman, I would probably despise her. But if it's you, I don't think it's a big deal. Anyway, what's more important is that I know how to cook."

Yan Shu: "…"

That was clearly a heartfelt confession, Yan Shu was finding it hard to be touched. She was feeling curious. They had gotten married without love but Bo Su was so tolerant and understanding. This was something that could only be found between couples that were deeply in love.

Yan Shu didn't want to take advantage of the situation. "In that case, you have to take care of the household in the future. I'll make more money to support the family."

Bo Su smiled and did not say anything.

With her meager income, she probably couldn't even afford to pay for his property management fees.

"Honey, you have to work hard." There was an underlying meaning in Bao Su's words.

"I know, I know." Yan Shu didn't know that the burden of supporting the family was more than she could bear. So she was exceptionally generous with her answer.

Soon, Father Yan returned with a bottle of sorghum wine. He filled his glass and said to Bo Su regretfully, "Bo Su, what a pity that you can't drink, otherwise you can drink with me today."

Bo Su was stunned for a moment. Father Yan actually knew that Yan Shu's patients could not drink alcoholic drinks. It was obvious that he was very concerned about his daughter's work.

Such deep fatherly love was truly touching.

Bo Su picked up Father Yan's wine and filled another glass. He raised his glass and toasted Father Yan. "Uncle, this is a toast to you. I wish you good health."

Father Yan looked at Yan Shu timidly. "Shushu, can he drink?"

Yan Shu's dark expression had already given him the answer.

Bo Su begged sincerely, "Shushu, let me drink a little this time. Prescribe me some sleeping pills later."

Yanshu, being a soft-hearted person, agreed to Bo Su's request: "Then drink less."

With Yan Shu's permission, Father Yan and Bo Su started chatting happily. After finishing the bottle of sorghum wine, Father Yan excitedly brought out another bottle.

Yan Shu tried to stop them several times, but seeing that they were chatting so happily, she hesitated and didn't say anything.

In the end, Bo Su got so drunk that he collapsed on the dining table.

Father Yan looked at the drunk Bo Su and was a little dumbfounded. For the sake of his daughter's reputation, he was definitely not willing to take in an unmarried young man for the night.

"Shushu, do you have the number of his family or friends? Let them come and pick him up quickly."

Yan Shu was a little unhappy with Father Yan's tactlessness. "Father, I've only met him a few times, why would I even inquire about his family members? It's all your fault. You knew that he couldn't drink, but you still forced him to drink so much."

Mr. Yan did not suspect that his daughter had ulterior motives. He glared at Bo Su resentfully and said to Yan Shu helplessly, "Why don't we let him stay here and rest for a while?"

Yan Shu's silence was golden.

Father Yan carried Bo Su into the guest room. He was initially bent on preventing his daughter from getting too close to Bo Su, but he was called away by an emergency call from the hospital.

Before Father Yan left, he reminded Yan Shu repeatedly, "Shushu, when he wakes up, let him leave."

Yan Shu: "…"

After Father Yan left, Yan Shu did not stay away from Bo Su according to her father wishes. Instead, she fetched some hot water and gently wiped Bo Su's face.

She even helped him take off his coat, shoes, and socks. She covered him with a blanket and prepared to let him have a peaceful sleep.

However, Bo Su was someone who doesn't fall asleep easily. He had opened his eyes at some point in time and was watching Yan Shu take off his clothes, pants, shoes, and socks. The sight of her being so caring and virtuous made Bo Su break into a smile.

Yan Shu covered him with the blanket and suddenly realized that he was looking at her with his charming eyes. His eyes were always filled with affection whenever he looked at someone. Coupled with his drunk and hazy look, they were simply a powerful weapon that could steal one's soul.

Yan Shu was stunned for a moment before her face turned red. "Bo Su, you're not asleep."

Bo Su's voice was hoarse and sexy. "Shushu, I can't sleep."

Yan Shu then remembered his insomnia.

Seeing that the dark circles under his eyes were getting worse, Yan Shu felt sorry for him. She sat on the bed and gently massaged his temples.

"Close your eyes. I'll give you a massage and see if I can help you sleep."

"Okay." Bo Su closed his eyes obediently.

Yan Shu's fingers were like warm jade, soft and smooth to the touch, and their warmth was comforting. Instantly, a tingling sensation spread through Bo Su's body.

"Does it hurt?"

"It's very comfortable."

Yan Shu's hands gently massaged the various sleep-related acupoints on his head. Bo Su was wide awake and sensitive to her touch. He found it strange. Ever since his mother left him, he had been especially averse to people getting too close to him, but he didn't feel this towards Yan Shu at all.

On the contrary, Yan Shu's touch gave him a lot of warmth and a huge sense of security.

It was this strong sense of security that made him feel so sleepy. Unexpectedly, he fell into a deep sleep.
