Quite awkward

I returned to the room and turned on the light. The light was neither bright nor dim, and there were small black bugs flying around the light tube.

A man and a woman were in the same bedroom, and the atmosphere at night suddenly became awkward.

Qi Yu rubbed her wrists, feeling a little tired, but she didn't dare lie down on the only bed, so she had to sit at the desk and look at her phone again.

Mu Chenan glanced around the room and said to Qi Yu, "You sleep on the bed tonight. I'll go to the car now."

When she heard that he was leaving, Qi Yu anxiously pushed the chair away and stood up to try to keep him.

"Brother, don't leave. I can sleep on my stomach. It's okay."

Although there was only an old lady in the house, Qi Yu always felt uneasy because there was no one she knew around.

Besides, it was dark outside and it was raining, so it was not safe for him to stay in the car.

Muchan was not sleepy at the moment. He would have a driver to pick him up tomorrow morning, so it didn't matter whether he slept or not tonight.

When Qi Yu lowered her eyes slightly, her eyelids became so heavy that she could hardly open them.

He took her thin arm and led her to the bed, saying softly, "I won't leave. Go to sleep."

Qi Yu turned around and confirmed again.

“You really don’t want to leave?”

Mu Chenan had no patience. He stretched his legs to press against her knees. Qi Yu screamed and fell backwards on the bed. She stood up in panic, but the culprit turned around and turned off the lights without changing her expression.

Everything in front of her was dark. Qi Yu calmed her heartbeat, kicked off her shoes and lay on the bed. She still wanted to know which direction Mu Chenan would be in. She closed her eyes and fell asleep quickly.

……

Around two o'clock in the morning, thunder and lightning started outside again. Qi Yu was awakened by the thunder. After getting used to the darkness, she called out to her second brother, but received no response.

She walked barefoot on the ground, ran in the dark to find the light switch, and then ran straight into a man's warm arms.

“Second brother?”

"It's me." The man's voice was calm.

Qi Yu touched his arm and after hearing a response, she placed her hands on his broad shoulders and tilted her head back, breathing heavily.

Mu Chenan was outside the room just now and turned back when he heard the noise she made.

He had long arms and flipped on the light, immediately noticing she wasn't wearing shoes.

Without caring about anything else, he hooked her legs, picked her up horizontally, and carried her back to the bed in three or two steps.

His attitude didn't change much from usual, calm and indifferent.

He casually pulled the quilt over her.

"It's still early, go back to sleep."

Qi Yu raised her chin slightly and saw that Mu Chenan's eyelids were half drooping. He looked a little unhappy, as if he was feeling sleepy, but there was no comfortable place to sleep.

She sat up again and tried to give him the bed.

"Brother, come and sleep. I'll keep you company."

"Do I need you to guard me?" Mu Chenan suddenly asked her back in a not very good tone.

Qi Yu felt wronged.

She clearly wanted to care about him, but he just wouldn't accept it.

How could Mu Chenan not notice the subtle change in her expression?

Now her mouth is pouting and she feels sad and heartbroken.

He touched her eyes but didn't feel any hot, wet tears.

I pushed her and let her sleep inside.

Qi Yu was confused and did as she was told unconsciously. When the lights went out and Mu Chenan turned off the lights and came back, she realized that they were going to sleep in the same bed.

Mu Chenan lay down directly in the empty seat, ignoring her complicated psychological activities. He put one hand on his forehead, closed his eyes tiredly, and didn't want to talk anymore.

The other person on the bed huddled himself in a corner, avoiding any physical contact with him.

In this special situation, only by abandoning the idea of gender differences can two people sleep well.

The man beside her breathed slowly, and Qi Yu dared not move even more. She knew that this was wrong, but it was just her and Mu Chenan tonight, and no one would tell anyone about this. It would be better to be casual and make sure she got enough sleep so that she would have enough energy to film tomorrow.

She turned on her side facing the wall, and after just a few minutes, she fell asleep again.

……

Early in the morning, the morning light flew in from the window.

Mu Chenan woke up with his eyes open and looked down. He saw Qi Yu sleeping soundly on his chest, with one of her slender legs resting on his leg through the quilt.

He took a moment to recall.

In the early morning, he couldn't resist the sleepiness, so without thinking too much, he slept in the same bed with Qi Yu.

At this moment, he did not feel too much regret. He had not done anything and felt that it was not a big deal.

Qi Yu's sleeping face was like a kitten, her breathing was very light, her eyes were closed, her long eyelashes cast a shadow, and there was a long red indentation on her delicate face.

Apparently, it came from the zipper on his jacket.

He subconsciously reached out and gently stroked the marks on her face, but it had no effect. He could only wait for it to disappear on its own.
