Lu Weixi’s first instinct was to hurriedly rewrap the towel around her body tighter and said without thinking, “What are you doing here?”

She regretted it the moment she said it. He had bought everything in the house, including her, so of course he had the right to be here.

However, Qin Zhiyou usually went to the study and would not rest in the bedroom. Today was an exception.

In response, Qin Zhiyou only looked over nonchalantly. Lu Weixi had just finished showering, and her skin was pearly white with a hint of flushed pinkness from the heat of the bath. Her black hair was long with a slight curl, and it was slightly wet as it draped over her chest. Even though the towel was wrapping around her tightly, he could still vaguely see…

As she was too shocked, her originally pretty almond-like eyes widened slightly, red lips slightly agape and one could faintly see the white teeth inside, which made her look innocent and pure.

After one glance, Qin Zhiyou gradually retracted his gaze and leaned against the head of the bed. He held his phone with his left hand and his right fingers gently slid across the screen to unlock his phone. Notifications sounded from his phone, as his fingers agilely glided across the screen as if he was talking to someone.

Lu Weixi heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly found her pajamas, before changing into them at the highest speed possible. Then she went to the dresser, patted on her moisturizer, mask and then picked up the hairdryer to meticulously blow dry every bit of her wet hair, as she quietly observed him in the mirror from the corner of her eye.

However, fifteen minutes had passed, but Qin Zhiyou still maintained the same position and did not move, as his phone kept flashing as if he was chatting even more heartily.

Lu Weixi knitted her brows. Why isn’t he sleeping yet? After she was done drying her hair, she threw away the mask and slowly put on her essence, eye cream, toner, night cream, hand cream and even body lotion all over herself. She used all the skincare products she could think of, and her actions were as slow as possible, as if she was a sculptor meticulously engraving a piece of work.

Just when she had nothing else to do and wanted to bring out the massager from the drawer to massage her face, she saw that Qin Zhiyou finally put down his phone and lay down. She heaved a sigh of relief.

Finally.

It was only then that she put away all the bottles on the table in a very gentle manner, not wanting to make a single sound. Qin Zhiyou was sleeping closer to her, so she specifically took the longer route and tip-toed toward the bed. Lu Weixi lightly picked up a corner of the blanket and squeezed in.

The room was very quiet and one could only hear the aircon slowly giving out air. Lu Weixi lay on the bed for a long while and her head hurt to death, but she could not fall asleep. She had slight neurasthenia, so she would not be able to fall asleep whenever there were light or slight sounds in the room unless she was very tired.

Turning around, she saw that Qin Zhiyou was sleeping peacefully and his breathing was normal. It had been so long already. Surely he should be asleep, right? The bedside lamp was still turned on at his end. Lu Weixi braved herself, as she held up her body with one hand and entirely leaned over toward him. She stretched out her arm in an attempt to turn off the bedside lamp.

The bed was very large and her arm was not long enough, so she could only quietly move toward him, while accidentally touching his body.

Just as her fingers were about to touch the switch, Qin Zhiyou, who was below her, suddenly grabbed onto her wrist and turned around.

“I really didn’t expect you to… get close to me using all kinds of methods. Do you lack money that much?”
