Capítulo 1107: Chapter 66: No Ti to Rest
A bit hot.
Gongsun Ce drowsily turned over, nearly falling off the bed as a result. He pulled the blanket tighter and groped for the soft pillow beside him, slipping back into deep slumber from his half-awake state.
The comforting warmth and darkness embraced his mind. If there were a ranking for the most relaxing activities in the world, taking a nap after waking would certainly crush its way into the top ten list. When Gongsun Ce awoke again, he felt particularly at ease, the comfy bed giving him a lazy impulse to stay in until noon. Wanting to raise his arm instinctively, he failed due to an additional weight, as warm breaths lightly brushed across his face.
“…?”
As Gongsun Ce’s consciousness gradually cleared, he began to recall his actions before sleep. In the late hours of the night, the young lady woke up, spoke a few words, and then had a look that seed to want comfort. He climbed into bed and held his girl until she fell asleep…
Then he also unknowingly fell asleep!
Realizing this, he imdiately opened his eyes, and even without his glasses, his blurry vision was enough to confirm the situation. The one in his arms wasn’t a hotel pillow but rather his girl, Qin Qianbai, who was sleeping beside him, her head resting on his arm and half of the pillow. The girl’s sleeping face was as peaceful as ever; she seed to have recovered from yesterday’s battle. Gongsun Ce used telekinesis to carefully scan and confird that the wounds had completely healed without leaving a trace, finally setting his heart at ease.
How should he wake her up? Simply getting out of bed would definitely wake up the young lady, and staring at her like this would probably trigger a keen martial artist’s instinct, making her feel stared at—last ti in the tent, he got criticized for waking her with a kiss again, being told it was greasy… Wow, thinking about it, this girl really is a difficult young lady to serve, might as well just keep cuddling and wait for her to wake up naturally…
Thinking this, Gongsun Ce suddenly discovered a detail he had overlooked. His left palm was emitting an unignorable presence of silk-like smoothness, it seed he was touching sothing. He rembered searching for quite a while to find the pillow, and the real-life equivalent was…!
“!”
Oh no, his left hand had unknowingly slipped into Qin Qianbai’s clothes, with his palm now pressed tightly against her back!
From any angle, this posture and action looked like a morally corrupt man being handsy with the woman beside him. If the young lady were to wake up at this mont, it wouldn’t lead to an affectionate morning greeting between lovers, but an impassive reproach with disdainful eyes!
——Ah Ce, really awful.
He could completely imagine her contemptuous tone and expression when she said this. Not good, if Mr. Gongsun wakes up now, the good na of being a good boyfriend will be ruined. Gongsun Ce imdiately thought of a plan: carefully and quickly withdraw his hand, then act as if nothing happened by poking her forehead and saying “Ti to wake up, young lady.” With the calm and composure befitting a mature man, he would enjoy her shy expression upon waking… This was the genius plan to turn danger into safety!
Gongsun Ce, using telekinesis with the ticulousness of controlling dust, maneuvered his left arm with the caution of a secret agent infiltrating enemy lines, silently moving his hand along the graceful curve of the girl’s back. The plan was executed quite smoothly, and his left hand was about to make its escape—
A familiar sound of footsteps was suddenly heard outside the door, causing Gongsun Ce to tense entirely.
“It’s already nine, maybe we should wake them up.” Shiyu Ling said with a yawn.
“Really, Shiyu Ling, leave it be.” Qiluo carefully lowered her voice, “Qin Qianbai was so exhausted from fighting yesterday, let her rest a bit more…”
“No, no, I’m just worried about her, after all, the little girl usually wakes up the earliest.”
“With Ce watching over her, there won’t be any issues.” Alandia chid in.
“Ew, I just feel that guy might take the opportunity to get handsy…”
“In that case, he would be beaten into the ground by Qin Qianbai, so it’s fine~”
Have a little more faith in your boyfriend, please. And why is it a given that I’d be beaten into the ground? Why must I pay such a price just for intimacy with my girlfriend?!
The footsteps of the three crew mbers faded away, and Gongsun Ce recovered from his stiffness, feeling as tense as an elentary student secretly playing with their phone under the covers afraid of being caught by their parents. His left hand was now resting at her slim waist, the awkward action resembling the first step of a preditated cri. Gongsun Ce encouraged himself, preparing to withdraw his hand all at once—
But then, a subtle sense of discord arose. Everything should have remained unchanged, yet sothing seed to have been added.
With doubt, Gongsun Ce shifted his gaze, only to et a pair of pearl-like bright eyes. Qin Qianbai had sohow opened her eyes, quietly observing his flustered appearance.
“…”
Well, dood.
All preparations went to waste, and the grave offense of “being handsy with an injured girlfriend” undoubtedly already charged against Mr. Gongsun. Gongsun Ce stopped despairingly, pondering whether his day would truly begin with an iron fist or a sharp tongue, until the girl beside him closed her eyes again.
“Eh?”
Gongsun Ce blinked hard. It wasn’t an illusion, the young lady who woke up had actually closed her eyes again. Not only that, she was making a peculiar sound!
“Shu~shu~”
——She, she’s pretending to sleep!
That peculiar noise was absolutely simulating the sound of breathing during sleep, and the slightly trembling eyelashes also exposed the truth. Most importantly, the slight blush on your face, it really looks like you’re awake and have regained your senses!
