Chapter 1610: Chapter 1611: Sleeping Together
Perhaps it was because of shyness, she grabbed her clothes and quickly turned around, rushing into the bathroom!
Watching her ’panicked escape’ silhouette, Qin Feimo himself also heaved a sigh of relief.
It was indeed his first time holding a woman’s clothes, let alone underwear, and he couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy.
Glancing in the direction of the bathroom, Qin Feimo cleared his throat to ease his mood, then lifted the covers and got on the bed to continue reading the magazine.
After fumbling around for nearly forty minutes in the bathroom, Feng Jinglei finally finished her shower and got dressed, but she didn’t open the door for a long time.
If it weren’t for the sounds coming from inside, Qin Feimo would have thought something had happened to her and he’d have to rush in to find out.
Behind the bathroom door, Feng Jinglei had her hand on the doorknob, but just thinking about Qin Feimo being outside the door, and that they would be sharing a bed tonight, kept her hand from turning the knob.
On the bed, Qin Feimo noticed the lack of any sound inside; he figured she must have finished her shower, but after waiting seven or eight minutes without her coming out, he couldn’t help but frown slightly, looking towards the bathroom door.
After waiting another two minutes, the bathroom doorknob finally moved a little.
She quietly opened the door just a crack, trying to see if he was already asleep or still reading his magazine.
However, the moment she poked her head out, their gazes met.
She was momentarily stunned, her heart in a flurry of panic.
But being seen by him, she couldn’t retreat back into the bathroom, so she had to bite the bullet and walk out.
"You’re... not asleep yet."
She walked out, and to ease the awkwardness of the moment, she looked for a topic.
"Waiting for you." His offhand comment made her even more flustered.
Qin Feimo glanced at the time, it was almost ten, then looked at her standing there awkwardly, and decided to get up, lift the cover, pull her onto the bed in a surprise, and cocoons them tightly under the covers.
His actions were seamless, catching Feng Jinglei off guard and leaving her stunned under the quilt.
"Pregnant women need to sleep early."
He knew she felt uneasy and wouldn’t willingly climb into his bed, so as a man, he had to pull her onto the bed!
Under the covers, she lay against his arm, everything felt like a dream, feeling unreal, yet she could clearly feel his warm body and heartbeat.
This man who said he’d never love her or marry her, was now holding her to sleep.
She also clearly understood that he was willing to marry because of the child she carried, yet she felt very content with this.
With a faint smile, she slept soundly in his arms.
As for Qin Feimo...
An hour passed, but he couldn’t sleep.
He had always had good self-control, living a restrained life, even when he was with Ma Qianqian, he never craved her, yet now, just by purely holding her, a restlessness began to stir within him.
Feng Jinglei wasn’t sleeping deeply either, perhaps because she was more sensitive sharing a bed with him, when she felt him move, she immediately woke up.
Was he unable to sleep?
Pillowed on his arm, she didn’t dare to move, sleeping very stiffly.
"Am I making it hard for you to sleep?" In the quiet of the night, she suddenly spoke, causing him to pause in surprise.
