Chapter 142: Torturous Night
Xiu Wu’s mind was busy recalling their conversation at this moment. Judging by Zhu Lin’s words and body language when she invited him into her bedroom, he was pretty sure she really invited him to sleep with her.
While Xiu Wu was thinking, Zhu Lin waited patiently for him to answer her question.After waiting for a long time and not hearing his response, Zhu Lin frowned slightly and removed his arms from her waist.
She stood calmly in front of him and said, "I will sleep here, and you will sleep over there."
After saying that, Zhu Lin calmly took off her shoes and lay on the bed. Seeing that he was still standing there staring at her blankly, Zhu Lin yawned and said, "We only had a few hours of sleep. Go to bed early."
Not long after, Xiu Wu heard her steady and slow breathing. He took a deep breath and lowered his head. Seeing his physical condition down there, he sighed helplessly and walked into the bathroom. After staying in the bathroom for a long time, Xiu Wu came out with wet hair.
He stood by the bed and stared at the sleeping Zhu Lin. Then he looked at the bowl of water placed in the middle of the bed. After a long silence, he sighed helplessly again and then lay on the other side of the bed. That night, Xiu Wu took two more cold showers because of Zhu Lin’s moaning in her sleep.
Five hours later, when Zhu Lin woke up, she was shocked to see two deep dark circles under Xiu Wu’s eyes. Sitting on the bed, she looked at him confusedly while thinking: ’Why does he look more tired when sleeping on the bed than on that small sofa?’
Xiu Wu sat up and stared at her helplessly. Seeing Zhu Lin looking at him with confusion, he ruffled his hair in frustration and thought to himself: ’It seems that she still regards me as a baby, and not a man.’
Seeing him like this, Zhu Lin was surprised and asked worriedly: "Xiu Wu, are you having a nightmare last night?"
