The dull look in her eyes signified that she was still plagued by the nightmare.
Realizing this, Huo Jinyao reached out and held her in his arms.
"Don't be afraid. Dreams are the opposite of reality. There is nothing to be afraid of."
He tightened his hands around her waist slightly and his tone sounded sharp when he was comforting her.
Because of this, Su Qingsang couldn't help but look at him for a longer time. Who would think this man could comfort people?
As she looked at him, he turned into a playboy.
"You suddenly realized your husband's really handsome? Huh?"
Seeing her staring at him without even blinking, Huo Jinyao raised the corners of his mouth.
His face did indeed look very, very handsome in the light. People always said that the beautiful people looked even better under lights. Of course, for that to be true his facial expression couldn't be irritating. The smug look on his face made the corners of her mouth twitch.
She took back the idea of him being beautiful under the light, for she didn't think the man would ever learn to be serious.
She was really not used to his hands being around her waist and she reached out to pull them away.
Huo Jinyao was extremely stubborn and refused to let her go. "What? I am not handsome?"
Su Qingsang rolled her eyes. "Let go of me, I am going to sleep."
"Alright, let's sleep together."
Who would want to sleep with him? Su Qingsang wanted to retort, but Huo Jinyao had already cuddled her down.
"Huo Jinyao." Who could sleep well with a hand under their waist? "Get your hands away from me."
"No. I will not."
"Put them away."
"No."
"Put them away. Why not?"
"I won't get them away from you." Huo Jinyao tightened his grip as he spoke. "You need to sleep now. If you don't, let's do something else."
What else?
Su Qingsang, who was aware of what he had meant, quickly closed her eyes.
She was still not used to sleeping while being cuddled. Unconsciously, she turned her body, but she heard the voice Huo Jinyao in the back of her mind.
"Do not move."
If I keep wriggling, I could not be sure what would happen next.
Such an asshole. Su Qingsang did not dare move anymore. She raised her eyes to glare at Huo Jinyao, thinking that this man looked extraordinarily annoying.
She looked away with resentment and yawned.
Having experienced a nightmare, she thought she might not fall asleep very quickly. However, she slept all night without being bothered by another nightmare.
When Su Qingsang woke up, the other side of the bed was empty.
Realizing today was the day she would return to her parents' home, Su Qingsang stood up. Going back meant a dangerous reunion.
After washing herself, Su Qingsang found that Huo Jinyao had just entered the apartment, holding several bags of breakfast.
"You're up? Right in time for breakfast."
Huo Jinyao smiled at her, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. Su Qingsang took a look at his sportswear. He just went out for a morning run?
Huo Jinyao put the breakfast down. "Come here. Aren't we going out today?"
As a doctor, Su Qingsang couldn't maintain a regular diet. She knew it was bad for her health, but she sometimes forgot to eat something.
Huo Jinyao who had lived here for only two days had already started caring about her diet. She couldn't tell her feelings inside, but at least she was not annoyed.
Su Qingsang looked at Huo Jinyao in the morning light while enjoying her breakfast in silence.
She became even more confused. She had no idea why this man had married her, but now she had an inexplicable feeling.
Maybe he didn't have ulterior motives.
Maybe.
After breakfast, Huo Jinyao changed his clothes and they got in the car, heading to Su Mansion.
