Chapter 112 To Sleep while Hugging Each Other
Zheng Xiaoguang went to Bluegreen-Clad’s house in A City together with him.
The moment they arrived, Xunxun excitedly ran to Zheng Xiaoguang and licked her hands with its tongue.
“He likes you so much.” Bluegreen-Clad shook his head helplessly. “It seems that he has treated you as his master. He hopes that you can stay.”
“Is it the dog that wants me to stay? Or, it’s Bluegreen-Clad that wants me to stay.” With this in mind, Zheng Xiaoguang tried to lift the dog and hug it. To her surprise, the dog was too heavy. She had no choice but to give up.
Bluegreen-Clad dragged her suitcase to her and asked, “Do you want to live in the same room?”
“Well, there are too many rooms in your house. Otherwise, you don’t have to ask me such a question,” Zheng Xiaoguang thought and then replied smilingly, “Okay.”
Bluegreen-Clad looked down at his watch. It was 19:00 pm. He touched Zheng Xiaoguang’s head and said, “It’s too late to visit my parents today. I’ll take you to meet them tomorrow.”
Although she had already met his sister, she still felt nervous about meeting his parents. “Ah? Tomorrow? I’m not ready. What if they don’t like me?”
“Come on, relax. They just want to meet you.” Bluegreen-Clad noticed her worries. He paused and added, “They won’t interfere with my relationships.”
“Do you mean that I’m like a recommended student?” Zheng Xiaoguang asked in surprise. (In China, recommended students do not need to take college entrance examinations to get enrolled by a college or university. They enter colleges and universities with recommendation letters issued by their high schools.)
“Well, you’re right,” Bluegreen-Clad smiled. “Mingyue has told our parents my relationship with you. They don’t have a problem with it. You don’t need to feel stressed.”
After receiving reassurances from Bluegreen-Clad, Zheng Xiaoguang felt relaxed. After a while, she felt worried again. “Sigh, I should’ve brought some local specialties from R City as presents. We left in such a hurry. I can’t prepare some nice presents for them now.”
She never planned to bring some expensive presents to please Bluegreen-Clad’s parents, but she thought that it was necessary for her to bring something special products to show her respect toward them.
Bluegreen-Clad pointed at a corner of the living room and asked, “Are you talking about those things?”
Zheng Xiaoguang shifted her gaze to the corner and saw many nicely-wrapped local specialties from R City.
“Rest assured. I’ve prepared everything for you,” Bluegreen-Clad said softly.
Zheng Xiaoguang was so touched that she felt a warm feeling in her chest.
“Thank you, Bluegreen-Clad.” She put her arms around his neck and gently rubbed his cheek with her nose.
Bluegreen-Clad touched her long hair and said, “Alright, honey. You must be tired today. Go to take a shower and go to bed early.”
“Okay.” Zheng Xiaoguang nodded obediently and then took her pajamas out of the suitcase. Before she realized what happened, Xunxun who had been wagging its tail beside her all this while suddenly began to chew her pajamas.
In an instant, it drew a “map” with its saliva on her pajamas.
“Uhm…” Zheng Xiaoguang felt awkward.
Bluegreen-Clad patted her shoulders and said, “Don’t worry. You can wear my pajamas tonight.”
“Alright, thank you,” Zheng Xiaoguang sighed. Xunxun continued to chew her orange pajamas when she left for the bathroom.
Different from a bathroom in an ordinary apartment, Bluegreen-Clad’s bathroom was larger and had a bathtub. Zheng Xiaoguang filled the bathtub with water and lay in it to take a bath.
After a while, Bluegreen-Clad walked to the door of the bathroom and knocked on it before saying, “I’ve put the pajamas on the hangers outside the door.”
“Uhm, thank you.” Zheng Xiaoguang felt sore all over while lying in the bath tub. After about an hour, she finally stepped out of the bathroom.
After putting on Bluegreen-Clad’s pajamas, she found out that they were too big for her, especially the pants. She would step on the hems while walking.
Bluegreen-Clad who had been watching TV in the living room noticed that she had difficulties moving around. He walked up to her.
“Do you need help?” He asked her smilingly.
Zheng Xiaoguang nodded and said, “Yes. Can you help me…”
She had planned to ask him to roll up the pants for her but she did not have a chance to speak. Bluegreen-Clad suddenly lifted her up and let her lie in his arms.
“Good, let me take this chance to practice how to carry a bride.” Bluegreen-Clad carried her to the second floor. He was quite strong, and his arms were steady. Zheng Xiaoguang put her arms around his neck. After a while, they reached the bedroom on the second floor.
Bluegreen-Clad gently put her on the bed. Upon seeing her flushed cheeks, he could not help but kiss her nose and asked, “You don’t want to let me go, do you?”
“Huh?” Zheng Xiaoguang was stunned. The next moment, she realized that she was still wrapping her arms around his neck.
She hurriedly took her arms back. To her surprise, Bluegreen-Clad suddenly put his arm around her waist.
“I love you, Xiaoguang.” He lowered his head to kiss her.
His kiss was always gentle and sweet. Every time they kissed, she just did not want him to stop. She put her arms around his neck again to make him kiss longer in case that this “goodnight kiss” ended quickly.
Bluegreen-Clad could not help but hold her closer and more tightly. He could almost hear her heart beat at this moment.
They kissed for a long time. When Zheng Xiaoguang began breathing hard, Bluegreen-Clad ended the kiss.
She closed her eyes and felt his forehead against hers. He was gasping, which made her feel somewhat nervous. She dare not to move at this moment.
Bluegreen-Clad chuckled and said, “I’ve been wondering all this time when I can sleep while hugging you?”
Zheng Xiaoguang dared not answer that question.
After a long time, he gradually calmed down and said softly, “Alright, silly girl, go to sleep now.”
With these words, he stood up, ready to take his departure.
Zheng Xiaoguang could not help but stretch out her hand to grab a corner of his shirt.
He looked back at her and asked, “Do you want me to stay?”
Zheng Xiaoguang’s face became red as she nodded slightly. She thought, “We’re determined to get married. It’ll be alright if we just sleep together while hugging each other.”
He rubbed her head and said, “I need to take a bath first.”
He quickly realized that what he had just said might lead to misunderstanding, so he added, “If you’re sleepy, you can sleep first. I need only half a bed.”
Zheng Xiaoguang shook her head and said, “That’s alright. I’ll wait for you.”
Bluegreen-Clad smiled and said, “Okay.”
After about half an hour later, when he came back to the room in black pajamas after taking a bath, he discovered that the girl who had promised to wait for him had already fallen asleep.
He sighed helplessly, opened the quilt on the bed and covered both of them with the quilt. He took Zheng Xiaoguang into his arms and lowered his head to kiss her forehead.
She opened her eyes to look at him in a daze and seemed to be woken up by him. After that, she moved closer to him, closed her eyes and fallen asleep again.
“What a silly girl!” He could not help but smile and fell asleep while hugging her.
