My Ex-Husband Is Proposing Again-Chapter 1757: Fainting (3)

Qiao Qiao was a bit unaccustomed to Ye Shiqing’s sudden serious tone, so she didn’t say anything else and handed Little Baozi to Ye Shiqing before going to take a shower.

After she finished showering and came out, she saw Little Baozi pouncing on Ye Shiqing and gnawing on him. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Ye Shiqing was always serious and stern outside, rarely smiling, so such a scene was uncommon. She couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Hearing Qiao Qiao’s laughter, Ye Shiqing immediately pushed Little Baozi aside and rushed over to Qiao Qiao like a whirlwind, asking, "Xiaoqiao, can I sleep with you tonight?"

"No!" Qiao Qiao replied without hesitation.

She was still mad at him; how could she forgive him so quickly?

"How about I sleep with our son, then? I’m afraid he’ll disturb you at night." Ye Shiqing was not surprised at the predictable outcome.

"No need, he’s used to sleeping with me. Oh, by the way, close the door on your way out." Qiao Qiao said as she lay on the bed playing with Little Baozi.

Ye Shiqing’s eyes were fixed, staring at Qiao Qiao’s bare legs, his throat moving. They’re newlyweds, and she’s already making him sleep in separate rooms. Isn’t that a bit inhumane?

Seeing no response behind her, Qiao Qiao turned around and caught Ye Shiqing’s weird gaze.

She casually picked up a pillow and tossed it over: "Have you looked enough?!"

Men, they’re just like dogs that can’t change their ways, always full of impure intentions at moments like this.

"Xiaoqiao, I can’t sleep without you by my side." Ye Shiqing said, climbing onto the bed as well.

Qiao Qiao gave Ye Shiqing a cold look as he hugged Little Baozi: "I’m serious. Without you, I can’t eat or sleep. Don’t be so cruel and drive me away, okay? How about this, I’ll sleep on the floor tonight, I promise I won’t touch you."

"If you don’t leave, then I will." Qiao Qiao wasn’t buying Ye Shiqing’s act.

If men’s words were trustworthy, even sows would climb trees.

Seeing the situation, Ye Shiqing knew his plan had failed and helplessly said, "Fine, fine, I’ll go."

This iron-hearted woman had not a shred of sympathy.

As he reached the door, he couldn’t help but ask, "Xiaoqiao, do you really not need me to stay and protect you and our son?"

Qiao Qiao didn’t look back nor did she respond.

With no other choice, Ye Shiqing closed the door, dejectedly heading to the adjacent room. The long night, without a wife and child beside him, seemed unbearable.

Ye Shiqing tossed and turned, unable to sleep, thinking of Qiao Qiao next door. Wanting yet unable to touch, he was not content.

In contrast, Qiao Qiao played with Little Baozi for a while, and once the child was full and asleep, she soon drifted off as well.

Not long after she fell asleep, Ye Shiqing snuck back in. He initially intended to make a move on Qiao Qiao, but seeing the heartwarming scene of her and the child sleeping soundly, his impure thoughts vanished instantly.

He watched for quite a bit, until he felt sleepy, and finally lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.

The next morning, when Qiao Qiao got out of bed, she saw Ye Shiqing curled up on the sofa. His large body squeezed on the tiny sofa looked especially pitiful, and she felt sorry for him for a second before heading to wash up without another glance.

Ye Shiqing knew Qiao Qiao was washing up and opened his eyes. He thought, since Qiao Qiao didn’t kick him out just now, does it mean she’s no longer angry?

With that thought, he left the bedroom and went to the kitchen to make breakfast, planning to perform well and try to satisfy Qiao Qiao.

Qiao Qiao brought the child downstairs, only to see Ye Shiqing shuttling back and forth between the living room and the kitchen, looking like he was getting things done.
