100 Days Of Escaping My Wedding-Chapter 508 Still Don’t Want to Sleep

It seemed he had heard the phone call just now. Xiaoqiao bit her lip and didn’t argue back, instead she purposely teased him, "You really are clairvoyant!"

"What’s wrong now? Who made you unhappy? Huh?"

"Gu Hangshen... I feel so confused," she turned around, resting her head against his chest.

"I know... that’s why I came!"

Xiaoqiao felt a warmth in her heart, he had shown up just in time when she was most confused. Just hearing his voice at that moment had already moved her deeply.

However, she still harbored some resentment in her heart.

"What’s the use of you being here? You’re all the same, only knowing how to placate me! You all have things you’re keeping from me! Don’t think I don’t know!"

Gu Hangshen’s lips lingered on her skin, his voice carrying a bewitching power, "I’m here to provide psychological support! Whatever you can’t figure out, whatever you want to know, you can tell me everything, without reservations, however you wish. Tonight, I’m completely yours..."

Xiaoqiao felt her cheeks grow hot, "Aren’t you going back? If you’re found out..."

"I have already made arrangements. And the two men sent by Huo Yandong are not here tonight."

"Not here?" For safety’s sake, Xiaoqiao still suggested, "Let’s go to the room to talk!"

"Hmm."

Xiaoqiao suddenly remembered his leg, "By the way, how’s your leg? Did you come alone?"

"It’s okay, it’s healing nicely, I can start to practice walking slowly now. Lian Yi brought me here, and she’ll come to pick me up tomorrow morning."

"Oh..."

The thought of spending the night with him made her very happy, but the thought of his departure in the morning made her sad again.

Worried about waking the child with their talking, Xiaoqiao took Gu Hangshen to check on Xiao Nian in his room before they went to the next room.

Xiao Nian, sweetheart, you’ll have to rough it alone tonight.

They lay down on the bed, cuddling with the lights off, savoring each other’s long-missed scents in the darkness.

Gu Hangshen played with one of her hands, his chin gently resting on the top of her head, "Alright, ask any questions you have now!"

She indeed had a myriad of questions to ask him, many things to tell him, and long-suppressed emotions to vent to him.

But, in that moment, nestled in his arms, her heart suddenly calmed down. She just wanted to hold him silently, feeling very secure and content without saying or doing anything.

All the worries about Huo Yandong’s matters or the company that weighed on her mind were dispelled by his arrival.

Could the restlessness of these past days be simply because she felt insecure without him by her side?

Thinking about it, Xiaoqiao idly drew circles on his chest with her finger and replied softly, "...no more."

She really didn’t want to spoil the mood by talking about unhappy things when they finally had a chance to be alone.

Gu Hangshen was initially surprised, then he chuckled softly, "Then sleep."

"Hmm."

After a while.

"Gu Hangshen, I can’t sleep."

"Shall I get you a glass of milk? It helps with sleep."

"Umm... okay then!"

After finishing the milk, and some time later, Xiaoqiao tossed and turned.

"I still don’t feel like sleeping..."

Gu Hangshen kissed her cheek, "Shall I tell you a story?"

"I want to hear one I haven’t heard before."

"Hmm, a long, long time ago, there was an insomniac kitten..."
