After dinner and a wash, Ye Mo went to Liu Duo's room, took off his outer garments, and fell onto the bed. It was rare of him to not sneak under Liu Duo's blanket. Liu Duo had her back to him as she leisurely slipped into her dreams.
Ye Mo kept recalling that remark, and it made him terribly uneasy. Ye Yang had told him not to force her. Li Wazi was right, having a wife was like living the life of a monk!
In the middle of the night, while she was sound asleep, Liu Duo suddenly felt as though she was near a heat source and getting hotter by the second. She squinted her eyes open to find Ye Mo tightly wrapped around her, touching her here and there. She slapped his hands away and moved aside.
In a blur she said, "Go to sleep, don't touch anything."
By then Liu Duo was so sleepy her brain was not working right. She did not want to argue with him. She just wanted to sleep.
