Seeing her change of expression, Huangfu Lingyao immediately seized the moment, determined to retreat for now and make further advances once he succeeded.
As he cried, he said, “Is it not enough that I won’t sleep? Is it not enough that I won’t enter your room? I’ll wait for you outside, no matter how long it takes!” How pitiful he looked!
What a small request!
Liu Shimei could not help but think of that meme: I just want a hundred bucks, why don’t you give me a hundred bucks?!
Forgiving him, feeling both tender and amused, she raised her hand and lightly tapped her own forehead. “Alright, you can come with me, but when I sleep, you go to the side room and let Mo’er prepare a small bed for you. You sleep there and don’t wander around!”
Originally, Leihua Courtyard did not have a study; she had temporarily converted a side room into one.
Finally achieving his goal, the silly puppy stopped making a fuss. He immediately went from crying to smiling, cautiously held her hand, and looked at her with a worried expression. He shook her arm gently and asked softly, “Wife, are you not angry anymore?”
Liu Shimei was speechless.
This silly dog could cry so convincingly, even the worst temper could be cured by him!
Even a raging thunderstorm could be settled by him!
He followed up with, “Wife, please don’t be mad at me. How about this, I won’t sleep. I’ll wait for you right outside your bedroom door.”
Liu Shimei glared at him, annoyed. “Don’t talk nonsense!”
Although she thought of him as a silly dog and treated him like one, he was not actually a dog. Was he planning to guard her bedroom while she slept?
Huangfu Lingyao decided to take what he could get, so he followed her into Leihua Courtyard with a pitiful expression, just like a little bride. However, even though Liu Shimei scolded him, she did not let go of his hand. After some thought, he slyly moved his hand to her wrist!
Her palm was a bit rough due to handling herbs, but the skin on her wrist was incredibly smooth, like freshly-made tofu, melting in one’s mouth!
Oh my goodness! As he held his wife’s slender wrist, he could not help but think about the idea of having children.
A sleepless night had left him tired, and Liu Shimei stifled a yawn. Despite desperately wanting to close his eyes and sleep, he first had a simple breakfast with Huangfu Lingyao. Mo’er was given a humble bed in the side room.
After eating, she dragged the goofy dog into the side room. She needed to watch the dog sleep before she could rest peacefully.
Motherly worry had shattered her heart!
“See, it’s a bit small…” She glanced at the legs of the tall man beside her and silently thought, ‘His legs are so long. Life is so unfair!’
Continuing, she said, “The bed is a bit cramped, I apologize for your long legs. But you insisted on staying to sleep, so you’ll have to make do with what I have here. Understand?”
“Oh!” At this moment, the goofy dog was very obedient, nodding like a pecking chicken, and continuously reassured her, “It’s alright, Wife, I can manage!”
A child who could make noise would be rewarded with candy!
Liu Shimei breathed a sigh of relief, patted his back, and pulled the blanket over his stomach, saying, “Alright, you go to sleep quickly. I have to go now.”
Returning to her own room, Liu Shimei washed her face and quickly fell asleep.
Mo’er hadn’t been with her in the ancestral hall last night, but she would not sleep if her Eldest Young Miss was awake, so she needed some rest too.
Huangfu Lingyao lay in the side room with his arms under his head as a makeshift pillow. His long legs were cramped on the short bed, but he did not feel the slightest bit of discomfort!
He was overjoyed!
First, he thought, ‘My wife is just too soft-hearted!’
Then, he changed his thinking, ‘No, I need to remind her more, she shouldn’t be this soft-hearted with others, only with me!’
Entering the main room, he was not the least bit tired. Estimating that Liu Shimei would fall asleep, he quietly left the side room.. Taking advantage of Nanny Li being busy, Mo’er sleeping, and Lu Ying going to the Royal Residence to fetch clean clothes for him, he silently climbed into her room through Liu Shimei’s window!
