Chapter 131 Spending Time With Layla

"Hehe." Ace and Layla chuckled happily.

Even though it was raining heavily and they were only chatting in the resting building, they still had a good time.

Due to how interesting their conversation was, they even did not realize that they had been talking for fifteen minutes.

"Hehe. Sometimes, you are funny, Ace." Layla could not help but laugh after hearing his words.

"Maybe because I'm chatting with a gorgeous lady like you." He used his sweet words.

"Oh, are you hitting on me right now?" even though she acted normally, she was pleased when he praised her beauty.

"Yes. I'm trying to seduce you now." he was only joking around when he said this.

However, Layla took his words seriously. "Why are you trying to seduce me? Do you want to kiss me passionately again?"

When Ace was about to answer her question, he noticed that she was feeling cold.

For this reason, he retrieved his blue robe from his space ring and put it on her body. "Wear this. It can help you warm your body."

"So sweet!" Layla was touched by his actions. "You really treat me well, Ace."

Ace pinched her cheeks gently and smiled softly. "You are my sugar baby, so it's my job to take care of you."

"I will really fall for you if you keep treating me well like this." Even though it was only an ordinary robe, but she no longer felt cold after wearing it.

"Is that so? Then I wait for you to fall in love with me." He joked around again.

"Hehe." Layla giggled upon hearing his words. "By the way, why don't you wear a robe too?"

"I'm not feeling cold, so I don't need it." He decided to lie because he only had one robe in his space ring.

Layla believed his words immediately because he showed no signs of feeling cold.

The duo continued talking.

Like before, they really enjoyed their time. They laughed, they joked, and they teased each other.

Without realizing it, it had been thirty minutes since they were in the resting building.

At this moment, Ace's body was cold because it was pouring, but he still tried his best to act normally.

"Ace, how about we h-"Layla stopped her words halfway when she subconsciously touched his left arm.

'So cold! His hands are so cold.'

She kept holding his hands.

Layla shifted her gaze from his hands to his handsome face. "Ace, your hands are cold!"

"It's pouring, so it's normal. Don't worry about it." He could not hide it anymore because she was holding his hands.

"Why don't you wear a robe too?" she still did not realize that Ace only had one robe.

"It's fine." Ace smiled softly. "This cold is nothing for me."

"How can you say you are fine when your hands are so cold like this?" Layla kept rubbing Ace's hands and blowing hot air on them, hoping it could lessen the cold.

'Wait!'

At this moment, she suddenly suspected something.

Ace only had one robe!

And because he had given the robe to her, he did not have anything to help him lessen the cold.

Layla was even more certain of her guess when Ace kept saying he was fine or the cold was nothing for him.

"Ace, let's use this robe together." Layla did not want him to catch a cold, so she wanted them to use the robe together.

However, the robe was not big enough for them because they were adults and sitting side by side.

For this reason, Ace told Layla to wear the robe alone. "Layla, just wear it."

"But I don't want you to catch a cold." the air was cold because it was pouring, so she was afraid that he would catch a cold later.

"Just wear it. Don't worry. I won't catch a cold." Ace spoke in a soft and caring voice.

Layla did not say anything and stared at him.

Of course, she still did not want him to catch a cold. As she was looking at his handsome face, a good idea suddenly appeared in her mind.

'I will just do that.'

With that idea in mind, Layla suddenly rose to her feet.

Ace was surprised by her actions.

He thought she wanted to take something, but he was wrong. He was utterly wrong because Layla suddenly sat between his legs with her back facing him.

"Ace, I'm sure we can use the robe together now." she uttered.

"Alright." Ace did what she wanted and grabbed the robe.

They could cover their bodies with the robe this time because she was sitting between his legs.

'It's warm.'

There were two reasons why he felt warm immediately.

First, his body was covered with a robe, and last, her back was against his chest. Although it was only her back, but her body temperature helped him to lessen the cold.

These were the reasons why Ace felt warm instantly.

"Are you still feeling cold now?" she wanted to know whether he still felt cold or not.

"No. It's warm now. My sugar baby is genius for having such a great idea." After saying that, he wrapped his arms around her slender waist.

Layla was startled when he suddenly embraced her from behind, but her surprised face immediately turned into a smile.

'He is taking advantage of the situation, huh?'

She did not know what was going on with her, but at that time, her heart suddenly throbbed with happiness as if she was a young lady who was in love with him.

"Ace, why are you wrapping your arms around my waist?" she wanted to know why he suddenly hugged her, so she threw this question at him.

"I don't want you to feel cold, so I decided to embrace you." He responded calmly. "Don't you know that we can warm our bodies with hugs?"

"Hehe. Why don't you just be honest with me? You are taking advantage of the situation, right?" she knew it was only an excuse.

"Fine. I will be honest with you. It's raining heavily now and the air is also cold, so isn't this the right time to warm our bodies by cuddling?" he decided to tell the truth. "And you also like being hugged by me, right?"

"Who said I like being hugged by you?" she pretended as if she did not feel happy being embraced by him.

"Then why do you keep letting me embrace you?" he believed she loved being hugged by him.

If she hated it, she would have removed his hands from her waist and yelled at him.

However, she did not do that and only asked him a question about why he was suddenly hugging her.

It was crystal clear that she loved being hugged by him. That was why he kept wrapping his arms around her slender waist.

"You are wrong, Ace." She kept denying it. "I let you embrace me because I feel sorry for you."

"Really? Then I will stop hugging you." After saying that, he removed his hands from her waist.

To his surprise, she suddenly grabbed his hands and placed them on her slender waist again.

"Because I'm a good sugar baby, I will let you hug me." It felt great being hugged by him from behind in the cold air, so she did not want him to stop embracing her.

"Hehe." Ace chuckled and placed his head on her right shoulder. "My sugar baby is the best!"

Layla's face blossomed into a smile.

Then they continued talking.

Like before, they joked, laughed, and teased each other.

Even though their relationship had no status, but at that time, they looked like a couple who was deeply in love with each other.

"Hehe." Ace and Layla laughed happily.

The duo was thrilled.

Due to how happy they were, they were even thankful that it was raining because they could feel happiness thanks to the rain.

After talking with Ace for several minutes, Layla suddenly felt sleepy. "Ace, I'm sleepy."

It was raining heavily, and it felt comfortable in Ace's arms, so she suddenly felt sleepy.

"If you are sleepy, you can sleep now." Ace told her to sleep if she was sleepy.

"But you won't have anyone to talk to if I sleep." There was no one other than her in the resting building, so he would not have anyone to talk to if she was asleep.

"It's fine." He would not force her to stay awake for him because he was not a selfish person.

Even if he did not have anyone to talk to later, he did not mind it because she was still with him.

Layla turned her head to look at him and inquired, "Really?"

"Yes. Just sleep if you are sleepy." He smiled as he nodded his head. "Do you want to sleep on the floor or in my arms?"

"I will sleep like this because it's comfortable." At first, Layla wanted to sleep on the floor with her head on his lap, but she changed her mind because Ace would feel cold again later.

And sleeping in his arms also felt comfortable. That was why she decided to sleep in his arms.

"Then I will sleep now." after saying that, she shut her eyes.

Ace immediately positioned himself because he wanted her to sleep in a comfortable position.

'Hmm? She has fallen asleep?'

A soft smile spread across his face when he saw her sleeping face.

"Have a nice dream, my sugar baby." After saying that, Ace kissed Layla's right cheek.

A tiny smile appeared on Layla's face after he kissed her cheeks.

'It seems like I will have a nice dream later.'
