Yan Jingting felt both love and resentment towards the sleeping Chu Zhiyi at night, but was helpless to do anything. Worried about her injuring her wound, he cautiously watched over her all night.
Healing tends to speed up while a person is asleep, and that was true for Chu Zhiyi as well.
As the itch of healing plagued her, even in sleep, Chu Zhiyi wanted to scratch it.
Yan Jingting then grabbed her hand to stop her from scratching wildly.
Chu Zhiyi felt unbearably itchy, and while nestled in his arms, she grunted irritably in her sleep, "Itchy…"
Yan Jingting softly soothed her in a low voice, his hand gently stroking her back to alleviate the itch, which had her squirming uncomfortably in his embrace.
Yan Jingting's temper flared as she rubbed against him. He trapped her legs with his own, firmly restraining her body until she finally settled down, falling into a deep sleep, quiet once more.
