Chapter 23 - Her own sleeping pill

Xu Yizhi was stunned, and his cheeks seemed to float with an unnatural blush.

…..

The two people lay flat on the bed and looked at the exquisite reliefs on the ceiling.

Ling Xi’s heart thumped, and her flat body did not dare move.

Just now she was being polite, and teasing, wanting to see his pure and shy appearance, didn’t expect him to take it seriously.

Although she was trying to accept him and love him, but this progress was too fast… The hand holding the quilt tightened, then tightened some more.

Xu Yizhi unconsciously rolled his throat up and down, his mouth a little thirsty.

His back was also stiff, like ice that had been frozen for thousands of years, but his heart seemed to have a fire, burning and melting the ice.

Under all kinds of entanglements, Ling Xi still decided distract him with a chat. “Yizhi?”

“Yeah, what happened?” Listening carefully, the man’s voice was tense.

“When was the first time we met?”

There was really not an impression at all. She really didn’t understand why this man liked her, and in what way did he let her stepmother force her to marry him?

The fire in the man’s heart gradually extinguished, and his memory returned to the time when they first met. “You should have been a sophomore at that time. The first time I saw you, you were fighting with a group of girls.”

However, their real first encounter was buried in the bottom of the man’s heart. After all, that night, was the pain of Ling Xi’s heart, otherwise, she would not have wanted to commit suicide.

“Fighting?” She remembered, that time the fight was for Chi Jiayang.

At that time, she had just been with Chi Jiayang. A group of girls jealous of her stealing the school grass, fought her in the streets, and accidentally pulled her into an alley. Later, when Ou Mengxue came, she had gestured for her to leave, but she didn’t expect that she would really leave her.

She had only wanted to fight with them… before she fainted, she only felt a warm embrace. When she woke up to find that she was in the hospital, she had originally thought that it was Chi Jiayang who saved her.

“Was it you who saved my life?”

“Yeah.” The man’s voice was stuffy.

Ling Xi’s heart was startled, and the anger in her could not go down, damn Ou Mengxue and Chi Jiayang, you even had to lie to me about this kind of thing?

In the eyes, there was a strange evil.

Gently rubbing against the man, she stretched out to take his arm and slowly put it on her waist.

The man’s eyes deepened for a moment, and like an invisible bottomless spring, sucked her in deeply.

Turning his body to the side, he took her into his arms.

Both could feel each other’s breath.

Before she went to sleep, she whispered, “Thank you.”

Hearing the two weak words, the man’s hand tightened an inch again, and an inexplicable feeling poured into his heart again. Although it was strange, he liked this uncontrolled feeling very much.

If Ling Xi opened her eyes at this time, she would definitely see the eyes and smile that made her heart race…

When she wakes up, it is already four o’clock in the afternoon, the sun is slanting, and it is reflected on the flower stand outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

Her confused head was a bit awake, and she rubbed her sleepy eyes.

She hadn’t slept so well in a long time! She stretched her hand to the side, huh? When did he leave? How come she felt nothing at all?

When she went to bed on the weekdays, even a little movement would wake her up.

Moreover, she didn’t take sleeping pills this time…

Ling Xi’s brain woke up in an instant, and the corners of her mouth bent into a radiant arc – she understood, that Xu Yizhi was her own sleeping pill!
