Chapter 394: Night Attack
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ji Chen retracted his gaze from Jiang He and looked up at the crescent moon in the night sky, subconsciously thinking of Gu Xiao.
Gu Xiao should be in the Chu family villa now, spending the Mid-Autumn Festival with the Chu family. Perhaps they would also be eating mooncakes together and admiring the moon.
Ji Chen recalled the smile on her face when he talked about the Chu family with Gu Xiao. He understood that Gu Xiao must be doing well in the Chu family villa.
Thinking of this, Ji Chenβs lips curled up.
It was already too late in her previous life. The only thing he could do for Gu Xiao now was to protect her.
Ji Chen lowered his eyes and a dark look flashed across his eyes, which disappeared in the blink of an eye.
When Ji Chen and Jiang He were about to rest, Gu Xiao and the Chu family had already finished admiring the moon and returned to their respective rooms, planning to rest.
Mrs Chu was worried about Chu Zi saying that Chu An had bullied Gu Xiao, so she arranged a guest room for Gu Xiao.
However, Chu An was her biological son after all, so the guest room arranged for Gu Xiao was beside Chu Anβs room. This could be considered as comforting Chu An.
However, even Mrs Chu probably didnβt expect that her arrangements would benefit Chu An.
After washing up, Gu Xiao lay on the bed and fell into the soft blankets.
Too many things had happened today. Previously, when she was chatting with the Chu family, she did not feel it. Now that she was lying on the bed, she felt sleep rush over like a tide. In just a moment, it swallowed her.
Just as Gu Xiao was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard some movement from the direction of the door, as if someone wanted to open the door from the outside.
The moment she heard the sound, even if Gu Xiao knew that she was safe in the Chu residence, she could not help but wake up. She sat up and stared at the door warily.
After the sound at the door was heard a few times, Gu Xiao heard a click. Then, the door was pushed open from the outside.
A furry head poked in first and slowly raised eyes to size up the room. freewebnove(l)
After seeing who it was, Gu Xiao relaxed. She even had a thought that she had expected this.
Chu An subconsciously looked in the direction of the bathroom. When he didnβt hear anything, he turned to look at the bed and happened to meet Gu Xiaoβs gaze.
Chu An tightened his grip on the door handle, and under Gu Xiaoβs probing gaze, a smile appeared on his face.
He straightened up and walked into Gu Xiaoβs room, closing the door behind him.
βXiaoxiao, youβre still awake?β
Gu Xiao raised her eyebrows, and there was a hint of playfulness in her eyes. βIf 1 were asleep, would I still be able to see such an exciting scene?β
Moreover, he had clearly taken a first look at the bathroom just now, but now he actually had the cheek to ask if she was asleep? Did he really think that she did not know what he was thinking when he looked at the bathroom?
Facing Gu Xiaoβs teasing, Chu Anβs face didnβt turn red, and his heart didnβt skip a beat. His skin was thicker than tree bark, and he didnβt feel that there was anything wrong with breaking into someone elseβs room in the middle of the night.
Chu An walked towards Gu Xiaoβs bed without any scruples. βEven if I donβt see you tonight, Xiaoxiao might see me tomorrow morning.β
Gu Xiao looked at Chu Anβs self-righteous appearance and couldnβt help but twitch her lips.
Under Gu Xiaoβs indescribable gaze, Chu An climbed onto Gu Xiaoβs bed and reached out to hug Gu Xiaoβs waist. He even comforted Gu Xiao, βXiaoxiao, you must be tired today. Letβs sleep early too!β
If you hadnβt suddenly come over, she would have fallen asleep long ago!
Gu Xiao thought to herself and said it out loud.
Chu An wasnβt embarrassed at all. βSo in order to apologize to you, Iβll compensate you with myself. Iβll sleep with you.β
It was clearly Chu An who wanted to sleep with Gu Xiao, but after Chu An said this, it forcefully became as if it was Gu Xiaoβs request.
He held Gu Xiao and led her to lie down on the bed.
This was because Mrs Chu had only prepared a single pillow for Gu Xiao. At this moment, Chu An benefited as Chu An could sleep close to Gu Xiao and use the same pillow.
He reached out and patted Gu Xiaoβs back. βAlright, letβs sleep!β
Gu Xiao and Chu An were lying face to face. They were too close, and she could even feel the warm breath from Chu Anβs nose..
