Chapter 7: Lost So Thoroughly

Shen Qingxuan looked at Jiang Yubing, He saw her feeling full and satisfied, A look of contentment appeared on her little face, Her cheeks puffed out slightly, She looked absolutely adorable.

Shen Qingxuan’s gaze moved upward.

It finally rested on the top of Jiang Yubing’s head.

That round little head, If he flicked her forehead, Would she start crying right away?

Shen Qingxuan thought about this.

Oh man!

Why did he suddenly become so wicked?

It had to be because Jiang Yubing’s head was too round, Making him think of marbles he played with as a child.

Yes.

That was it!

It had to be her head’s “fault”.

Shen Qingxuan quickly shook his head, He tried to chase these odd thoughts out of his mind.

He picked up the stack of bowls on the table, He grabbed the chopsticks and got ready to head toward the kitchen.

Jiang Yubing suddenly spoke:

“I’ll wash the dishes!”

She lowered her head after speaking, Her hands unconsciously pulled at the hem of her shirt while waiting for an answer.

She felt a bit embarrassed just eating and drinking for free, And going to the hospital earlier also cost his money.

So she felt a little guilty as she spoke up.

“No need, the tablet is on the sofa. If you’re bored, just go play with it.”

Shen Qingxuan turned his head, A gentle smile appeared on his face.

He clearly did not take her offer to heart.

With those fair and tender hands of Jiang Yubing, Anyone could tell she never did any rough work or chores.

To believe she could do the dishes was about as likely as believing he was Qin Shi Huang.

Gotcha!

Still haven’t added the book to your bookshelf? I, the Emperor, will grant you the title of Grand General.

Shen Qingxuan tossed out that line and then dove straight into the kitchen.

Listening to the sound of running water from the kitchen, Jiang Yubing’s eyes widened.

Her whole face showed disbelief:

“What the heck! He ran so fast, Did he really think I’d eat him alive? It took me so much effort to offer, but I lost so completely.”

“Hmph! Bad guy.”

Jiang Yubing pouted, Her cheeks puffed up in frustration, And her face practically screamed dissatisfaction.

Left with nothing to do, she finally wandered over to the sofa at a slow pace, She picked up the tablet and started playing with it.

Half an hour later.

Lying on the sofa scrolling through videos, Jiang Yubing’s eyelids felt heavier and heavier.

She rubbed her eyes, Glanced at the time, And realized it was already midnight.

Sleepiness washed over her like a tide, But the question of where to sleep made things difficult for Jiang Yubing.

Where should she sleep?

She remembered glancing around the room when she first came in and saw there was only one bedroom.

Jiang Yubing let out another yawn she could not hold back.

Her eyes drifted toward the kitchen, And saw the light had gone out without her noticing, While the bedroom door was tightly closed.

She instantly understood—Shen Qingxuan must have already gone to sleep.

Ah…

When did he go to bed?

How did she not notice at all?

He brought her here and did not even arrange a place for her to sleep.

Jiang Yubing muttered quietly, twisting and turning on the sofa, trying to find a comfortable position.

Sigh!

It looked like she could only sleep on the sofa tonight.

She thought this to herself.

Who would have thought—one day, she, Jiang Yubing, would fall to this level.

If Weiwei ever found out, she would definitely seize the opportunity, And kick her while she was down.

Thinking of her best friend, Jiang Yubing sighed helplessly.

However, after several minutes, No matter how much she tossed and turned on the sofa, she just could not fall asleep.

She already had trouble sleeping in unfamiliar places.

The sofa was hard and short, and it left Jiang Yubing feeling sore all over.

There was no way to sleep like this.

Anyone watching would think she was being tortured!

She could not help but complain:

“This landlord must be really old, Otherwise, what young person would buy a sofa like this for a rental?”

At that moment, Jiang Yubing missed her big, soft bed more than ever, Thinking of it made her eyes grow a bit red.

Wuwuwu…

There was a kind of tiredness called “so sleepy but just can’t fall asleep”.

What should she do!

Maybe…

Jiang Yubing’s mind spun quickly, her eyes suddenly lighting up:

The bedroom bed must be super soft.

But.

She remembered Shen Qingxuan was sleeping on that bed, And hesitated again.

She bit her lip, her brows knitted tightly, her heart full of tangled thoughts.

She did not even know if he slept honestly or not.

What if he tried anything while she was asleep?

She always slept so deeply that even thunder would not wake her up.

As long as she was sleeping before the thunder, at least.

Ah…

Jiang Yubing yawned again, Sleepiness left her a bit muddle-headed.

After a fierce internal struggle, She finally gritted her teeth and stomped her foot:

Whatever.

If he was a good guy or not, she would deal with it when the time came.

Once she made up her mind, she crept gently into the bedroom.

Inside the room.

Moonlight poured through the window and spilled onto the floor, like a layer of silver frost.

She looked at Shen Qingxuan sleeping on his side in the bed, Took a deep breath, Crept carefully to the side of the bed, Terrified of waking him by accident.

Standing at the bedside, She only hesitated for a moment, Then threw caution to the wind and climbed onto the bed.

She lay down beside Shen Qingxuan.

But her body tensed involuntarily, Never in her life had she been so close to a boy before.

Jiang Yubing’s heart beat wildly like a frightened deer.

But.

She had just been through so much today, Jiang Yubing was truly exhausted.

Listening to the even breathing beside her, Her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, And gradually—

She drifted off to sleep.
