Yun Guyuan had never been so unrestrained before. He was so happy today that he let loose a little, but he was still a little embarrassed. However, as soon as he saw her smile, all his unease disappeared.
She’s right; watermelon is more fun when you eat it in big bites.
Under the wisteria trellis, the rocking chair swayed gently. The two people on the chair, holding watermelons, ate and chatted idly. Time seemed to slow down for them.
Yi Qingqing: “Aren’t the watermelons I grew sweet?”
Yun Guyuan: “Very sweet!”
Yi Qingqing: “Besides watermelon, I also have strawberries, cantaloupe, and all sorts of other delicious fruits here. I can share them with you from now on. And you know what? It tastes better when two people eat it than when I eat it alone!”
Yun Guyuan: “Then I’ll be in for a treat from now on! I have no way to repay you but to offer myself to you.”
Yi Qingqing: “You’re clearly becoming even more greedy! If you eat my food, you’ll have to help me with plowing and sowing in the future.”
Yun Guyuan: “Since I’ve already offered myself, it’s only right that I help with the work. I certainly wouldn’t dare refuse!”
…
One person helped with half a watermelon, and that was enough to fill them up.
With her full, she relaxed, rocking back and forth in her rocking chair, and soon fell asleep.
Seeing that she was quiet, Yun Guyuan got up, took the watermelon from her lap, and placed it aside. He also stopped rocking his chair so as not to disturb her.
He tilted his head, watching the shadow cast by her eyelashes, and gradually fell asleep.
Even in his sleep, he had a smile on his face.
Both of them were good sleepers. After a short nap of about 20 minutes, Yi Qingqing woke up, and the first thing she did upon opening her eyes was to look at Ah Yuan.
Seeing that he was also asleep, she quietly slowed her breathing, but her eyes remained wide open, staring at him.
Opportunities to openly admire her devastatingly handsome boyfriend were rare, and she felt she had to seize them.
And he happened to be turning his head toward her—a perfect opportunity.
From his thick, smooth black hair, to his smooth, full forehead, his healthy hairline, to his eyebrows, eyelashes, slightly pink lips, and his sexy Adam’s apple.
My goodness, with such beauty, what merit does Yi Qingqing possess to be worthy of it!
His sexy Adam’s apple bobbed slightly.
Yi Qingqing reflexively looked up and met a pair of smiling eyes.
“!!!”
Caught red-handed!
“How long have you been awake?”
Yun Guyuan thoughtfully avoided mentioning that she had been watching him. He could keep this to himself; if he did, she would feel embarrassed and wouldn’t dare to watch him again, which would be a huge loss.
But to Yi Qingqing, these words sounded as if she were being asked how long she had been watching, and her cheeks flushed red.
“Just…just woke up…”
Her mind raced, trying to find another topic to ease the awkwardness.
“Well, the sacrificial ceremony today is quite a lot of work. It’ll probably be very late when we finish, and we might not have time to clean up the outer rooms. How about we stay here tonight? There’s a daybed in the main living room; you can sleep there, and I’ll sleep in the inner bedroom. I haven’t properly stayed a night here since the courtyard was finished!”
After she finished speaking, she belatedly realized that the topic she had changed to was rather awful, making the situation even more awkward.
How could she invite someone to sleep in her room after being caught spying on them?
The living room and her bedroom are separated by only one wall!
“Okay.” Yun Guyuan agreed quickly and even gave himself a reason.
“If I can stay here with you for the time being, I can think about what furniture and items to add to the outer courtyard without having to make a decision in a hurry.”
