C79 Embarrassment
Ye Tian was stunned by his words. She blinked her eyes and looked at him in disbelief.
"Gu Qinian, is your head squeezed by the door or kicked by a donkey?"
Gu Qinian's face darkened when he heard this.
"This bedroom only has one bed."
Ye Tian nodded. "I know."
"Only a blanket."
Ye Tian continued to nod.
Gu Qinian gritted his teeth and his tone became even more unfriendly.
"So you want me to sleep on the sofa? Are you planning to give me the blanket?"
Ye Tian was obviously unwilling. "Why? Don't you want to get another blanket from Uncle Song?"
Gu Qinian scoffed when he heard this. "Have you forgotten why Grandma asked us to stay here?"
Ye Tian's round eyes turned and she immediately understood.
The old lady was obviously trying to matchmake them. Since they were sleeping in the same room, how could she allow them to share a bed?
Thinking about this, she curled her lips with an unwilling expression on her face.
This expression landed in Gu Qinian's eyes and made him look a bit disgusted. His face darkened and his long eyes narrowed.
"Ye Tian, don't tell me you think I will do anything to you?"
Ye Tian knew that he was mocking her the moment she heard him, so she quickly denied it.
"Of course not. I'm not that narcissistic. It's just that what you said just now was a bit ambiguous. It makes it seem like you're willing to sleep on the same bed as me."
Gu Qinian's mouth twitched.
"Then you think too much. This bed is so big, you and I can lie in the middle of it."
What she said was right. Ye Tian was not a pretentious person, so she didn't want to argue with him anymore. She urged, "Alright, hurry up and take a shower. I'm tired."
Tired?
Gu Qinian glanced at the time. It was only eight o'clock. She had eaten and slept. Was she a pig?
He looked at her suspiciously, then went to the bathroom with his pajamas.
Soon, the sound of running water came from the bathroom.
Ye Tian heard it and looked around the bedroom. For some reason, she felt that their relationship was a little strange.
In her memory, the two of them had never... been this close.
Although they were husband and wife in name, in reality, they were colder than strangers.
If it wasn't for the things that happened here that tied them together, what kind of life would they have?
After a while, many messy thoughts suddenly entered her mind.
She suddenly felt that the air in the bedroom was a little stuffy. She walked over and opened the glass door, standing by the balcony and looking at the night.
The cold wind blew past her, making her feel cold, but she felt that her breathing was much smoother.
After an unknown period of time, a big hand suddenly passed through her from behind. Without saying a word, it closed the glass door.
Ye Tian's thoughts were still floating in her mind, and she was shocked. She turned her head to face Gu Qinian, who had a displeased expression on his face.
"It's such a cold day, do you want to catch a cold?"
He had just finished showering and was wrapped in a bathrobe. His hair was still wet, and water droplets would occasionally drip down from his hair to his collarbone, then slide down his fair skin and finally sink into his strong chest.
Because he had just showered and was steamed by the hot air, his cold and thin lips had a captivating bright red color. Under his angular features, his facial features became more three-dimensional and deep.
Even though his eyebrows were slightly furrowed, it could not hide his handsome and attractive appearance.
This... This was clearly a picture of a handsome man taking a bath!
Ye Tian had no resistance against the temptation of beauty. She was instantly stunned and did not notice the concern hidden in his words.
Gu Qinian was rarely seen with her infatuated look. His originally furrowed eyebrows unconsciously relaxed, and a faint joy appeared in the depths of his black eyes.
Suddenly, a rare teasing thought rose in his heart. The corner of Gu Qinian's mouth curled up slightly, and his body leaned forward slightly, almost touching her.
His face was only a little more than a pinky away from her.
"Am I good-looking? I'm so fascinated by you."
His voice was originally low, but at this moment, it was deliberately suppressed by him. With a slightly sandy texture, it reached Ye Tian's ears, and there was an inexplicable sexiness to it.
With a loud bang, Ye Tian suddenly came back to her senses and her face turned as red as a tomato.
Realizing that she had lost her composure, she took a step back, but she didn't expect to see the glass door behind her.
Seeing that the back of her head was about to hit the door, Gu Qinian suddenly stretched out his hand and firmly placed it between her and the door.
In the next second, Ye Tian's head fell into Gu Qinian's wide palm.
Realizing this, Ye Tian's face turned even redder, and it looked like she was about to bleed.
The surrounding air seemed to have stopped flowing, and the atmosphere became ambiguous. There was a sense of romance in the air.
Her usual eloquence seemed to have suddenly disappeared, and she only had a pair of round eyes staring at the man in front of her in shock.
For some reason, her dumbfounded look in front of Gu Qinian's eyes made his heart beat a little faster, as if he had been scratched by a little claw.
It didn't hurt, but it was a little itchy.
This made the curve of his lips deepen a little more. He lifted his thin lips and his voice, which had a texture, rang out again.
"Ah, it seems that I am indeed very good-looking."
This time, Ye Tian finally came back to her senses. She suddenly raised her hand to push him away, and her eyebrows furrowed, trying to change her expression to hide her absent-mindedness.
Gu Qinian had already expected her movements. He took a step back and stared at her with his black eyes, faintly smiling.
Ye Tian rarely saw him like this, so she automatically understood it as a mocking smile. She then pulled a long face.
"Did you knock your head in the bathroom? Why did you suddenly use that trick to deal with a little girl? Gu Qinian, I suggest you take a CT scan!"
After saying that, she twisted her eyebrows and walked past him, quickly heading towards the bathroom.
With a bang, the bathroom door was slammed shut by her. She leaned against the door and looked at herself in the mirror with a flushed face. Her eyes were filled with disbelief.
'This is ridiculous! Why did I fall in love with that dog man just now?'
'This is so embarrassing!'
Gu Qinian must be laughing at her in his heart right now!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little depressed. While she was taking a shower, she was also scolding herself in her heart.
'My heart is in a mess, but the ancient people are not deceiving me!'
...
On the other side, the charming atmosphere in the bedroom had been completely wiped out by Ye Tian's words just now.
Gu Qinian's face darkened slightly. He felt that this woman had not changed at all.
He wiped his hair with a dark expression. He heard the sound of water in the bathroom, and for some reason, his mood became even more irritable.
'Damn it!'
He rarely got disturbed like this, but now, his mood was messed up by this woman. Even the sound of the water could make him feel agitated.
He pursed his lips, put down the towel, and walked out of the bedroom.
