These simple words made Gu Ruochu's heart throb.
F*ck. He was good at flirting. Gu Ruochu did not know what to say. She was momentarily speechless. She couldn't possibly ask him why he had treated her so differently...
For high and mighty people like him, marriage and women were a very small part of their lives.
She knew this, so she did not want to overestimate her importance to him.
Huo Nanchen had helped his wife and did not seem to have eyes for other women. He was already much better than most rich and powerful people.
"Drink this glass of milk before you go to bed."
"All right. You can go take a shower first."
Gu Ruochu then realized that something was not right. It was as if she had invited him to bed. Huo Nanchen only glanced at her and walked towards the wardrobe to get his clothes.
He watched as she drank the glass of milk. His lips curled into a slight curve.
Gu Ruochu lay on the bed and fell asleep not long after.
She had her strange dream again
There was a beautiful garden with a little girl who seemed to be very young. Although her face was a little blurry, there was still a slightly clear outline of her. She was swinging happily on the swing.
"Brother, a little higher, a little higher..."
"Alright, little girl, if you go any higher, you'll fall down!" A young man stood behind the little girl. She could not see his face clearly and he was helping the little girl push the swing.
"How are you, little sister? Are you happy?"
"I'm happy...
"Can you take us a little higher?
"Yes, okay. I want little brother to always be by my side, always by my side..." The little girl's clear voice echoed in the air. It was so innocent and carefree.
"Okay, little brother will always be by your side..."
"..."
Huo Nanchen was woken up by Gu Ruochu's tossing and turning. He did not know what kind of dream she had. He had always been vigilant, so he woke up in an instant.
He turned on the bedside lamp, and her restless sleeping face was reflected in his eyes.
He suddenly felt as if he had been possessed. His fingers landed on her facial features and carefully caressed them, from her eyes to her nose, and then to her lips.
His fingers subconsciously caressed her lips, which were becoming more and more seductive.
Huo Nanchen's eyes darkened as he looked at her lips. A sense of relaxation appeared in his cold eyes.
It was very strange that Gu Ruochu had fallen asleep so peacefully.
He turned over and gently lifted his hand to pull her into his embrace. She struggled subconsciously but soon her entire body was pressed against his chest. She was unable to move in his embrace.
Early the next morning, Gu Ruochu opened her eyes. She was stunned when she felt the warmth of her hands.
"You're awake?"
A hoarse and sexy voice rang in her ears, causing her to be stunned once again. No wonder she felt so comfortable. It turned out that there was a human cushion.
It was Huo Nanchen.
Why hadn't he left yet?
She saw that she was pressed against his body. One of his legs was pressed against her abdomen and her clothes were in a mess. Gu Ruochu was surprised. She did not wear a bra when she slept at night. Didn't that mean that last night...
Gu Ruochu did not complete the thought.
Huo Nanchen then remembered the sight of her chest pressed against his. Her deep cleavage, accompanied by her breath, formed an alluring arc.
It was a pretty sight.
"Yes, your chest is pressing against mine."
His gaze became a little heated and his words left Gu Ruochu speechless.
