Chapter 100: Sharing Pillows

Her voice was like a cat purring.

Zhao Zhan subconsciously lay flat. His legs were stretched straight, and the muscles in his body were so tense that they were hard.

Yue Jiaojiao laid on top of Zhao Zhan’s body and moved her head to find a comfortable position. Beneath her body was a natural heater. Although it was a little too hard, she felt at ease. Her heart relaxed and she fell asleep.

…

She had a good night’s sleep.

Zhao Zhan, who had been pressed under her like a mattress the entire night, suffered.

His body was so tense that it was uncomfortable throughout the whole night. He wanted to go to the courtyard and water himself with cold water as usual, but every time he wanted to move, his lover would grunt unhappily.

He was so nervous that he barely slept the entire night.

“Zhao Zhan?”

Yue Jiaojiao woke up feeling refreshed and found herself lying in the crook of Zhao Zhan’s arm. She was like an octopus clinging to him. She felt a little shy, which was a rare occurrence for her. After all, her sleeping posture had never been very good in the past, and shealways clinged onto something when she slept.

Ever since she came here, she had been sleeping alone and had almost forgotten about this matter.

No wonder she had slept so soundly last night.

Zhao Zhan’s eyes were glossy, and his body was weakly arched back. He heard the voice, but he still lowered his head gently. “You’re awake?”

“Did you sleep well?” Yue Jiaojiao lay flat, but her head was still resting on his arm, and there was a hint of sweetness on the corner of her lips.

Zhao Zhan was silent for a moment. He didn’t know if he had slept well, but if he told her the truth, he had an inexplicable feeling that he might be finished.

“Jiaojiao, I’ll get you something to eat.” Zhao Zhan carefully pulled his arm out and covered his legs with a robe. “I’ll go get some water.”

His posture as he fled was really strange.

When Yue Jiaojiao finally reacted, she laughed out loud in the room. When her laughter reached the outside of the room, it made Zhao Zhan, who was standing by the well and fumbling around to get water, tremble. The bucket in his hand fell into the well.

The two of them did not mention the awkwardness in the morning. After breakfast, Yue Jiaojiao excitedly urged Zhao Zhan to go out.

“I didn’t even know when you came back yesterday. Have you settled everything? We should be able to go out now.”

Thinking that Lin Yunxu would be in deep trouble later, Yue Jiaojiao was overjoyed.

“We’ll have to cross two streets from here to the inner district. I’ll carry you there.” Zhao Zhan carried Yue Jiaojiao on his back and walked steadily out of the courtyard. “Do you want to wear a veil?”

Yue Jiaojiao muttered to herself for a moment before obediently nodding her head. “It’ll be good to wear it.”

Since ancient times, many people were afraid of being investigated by the officials.

Although she wasn’t a narcissist, she had to admit that her face was indeed a little seductive.

It was best to avoid trouble in advance when dealing with people like the chief officer who had some power.

After all, she and Zhao Zhan had no power or influence at the moment, so it was better to keep a low profile.

Hearing that she was willing, Zhao Zhan immediately and carefully took out a neatly wrapped handkerchief from his body. He opened the handkerchief that revealed several veils of different colors.

Yue Jiaojiao couldn’t help but laugh. She leaned on his back and giggled. She leaned forward and said teasingly, “So you’ve already prepared for this? Tell me the truth, when did you buy these things?”

His little scheme had been completely exposed. If it wasn’t for the fact that he could barely keep his expression straight in front of her, he would probably be so nervous that he wouldn’t know where to place his hands and feet.

“From the first time you woke up, I bought a few veils when I was buying clothes for you in town,” Zhao Zhan said honestly. “After that, I secretly bought a few more.”
