Chapter 209: Where to Sleep

Translator: Atlas Studios    Editor: Atlas Studios

Lu Qingye was thinking about how to sleep tonight. His thoughts were in a mess. He was like a concubine who had been chosen by the emperor to accompany him for the night. He did not have any experience sleeping next to her and was thinking about how to deal with it.

The marriage agreement was a secret between him and Meng Chuyuan, so sleeping in separate rooms was naturally not within the scope of their agreement.

However, before this, they had never lived together.

The butler continued, “Do you need me to get you a coat?”

At the butler’s thoughtful reminder, Lu Qingye came back to his senses and replied softly, “No need. I’ll go up in a while.”

After thinking about it, Lu Qingye decided to return to his bedroom first. He got up and walked towards the stairs. He started to slow down when he walked up the stairs. This was probably the first time he had ever realized that this flight of stairs could take so long.

Lu Qingye returned to the bedroom. He had never felt so idle before. He felt like he had nothing to do. He stood in front of the window sill for a while.

Not long after, Meng Chuyuan came out of the shower and saw Lu Qingye’s back facing her. She did not know what he was looking at.

Meng Chuyuan asked, “You’re still awake?”

She thought that Lu Qingye might have gone to bed after taking a shower after such a long flight. Unexpectedly, he even opened half of the window and stood there to enjoy the night view.

When Lu Qingye heard this, he turned to look at Meng Chuyuan and said, “I just finished my noodles.”

Hearing his answer, Meng Chuyuan realized that the bowl of vegetable noodles she had made for the butler when she came back was for Lu Qingye.

Meng Chuyuan hummed softly, then blurted out, “Are you done eating?”

He nodded. “Yes, it’s quite light, not greasy at all.”

“… If I had known earlier, I would have fried an egg.” She thought that the vegetable noodles were made for Lu Jinsen.

“Huh?” Lu Qingye could vaguely hear her muttering something. He was standing far away, so he couldn’t hear her clearly. “What did you just say?”

“Nothing.” Meng Chuyuan walked to the wardrobe and took out a new set of pillows and a blanket. She hugged them in her arms.

When Lu Qingye saw this, he frowned slightly and thought to himself, ‘Is she going to make me sleep on the ground?’

While he was distracted, Meng Chuyuan had already carried the pillow and blanket to the bed and placed them on the other side, flat.

“…” Upon seeing this, Lu Qingye realized that he had been overthinking.

After she was done, Meng Chuyuan put her hands on her hips and turned to look at Lu Qingye. She asked, “Which side do you sleep on?”

Lu Qingye narrowed his eyes and said slowly, “I’ll sleep on the outside.”

At night, in the dark bedroom, two figures were lying on the big bed.

Not long after Meng Chuyuan lay down, she felt sleepy and quickly fell asleep.

On the other side of the bed, Lu Qingye’s eyes were still open as he stared at the dark ceiling. His thoughts ran wild for a long time, and even he did not know what he was thinking. He was no longer sleepy.

Lu Qingye tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Meng Chuyuan’s shallow breathing.

“…” He was about to ask her if she was asleep.

He did not expect her to fall asleep so quickly.

Lu Qingye did not know how long he had been in that position. It was not until he felt that his blood was not circulating properly that he moved his stiff body slightly. Before he could turn over, Meng Chuyuan was also turning over and was facing him.

Meng Chuyuan pulled up the blanket and made a rustling sound. He was stunned when he heard it.

His hand was still on the blanket. He could only raise it slowly, afraid of disturbing Meng Chuyuan.

Meng Chuyuan had already fallen into a deep sleep. She hugged the blanket and slept, exposing most of her body.

Although the lights in the room were off, it was not so dark that he could not even see his own fingers. Lu Qingye could vaguely see the blanket on Meng Chuyuan, it was curled up into a ball and held tightly in her arms.

Lu Qingye propped up his upper body with his elbow and slowly reached out to Meng Chuyuan. He wanted to pull the blanket out of her arms and cover her with it, but he gave up after a few gentle tugs.

The next second, he pulled his blanket over and covered Meng Chuyuan.

Lu Qingye sighed softly. He moved to the side of the bed and slowly placed his legs on the floor. Then, he got up, put on his slippers, and tiptoed out of the bedroom.

In any case, he couldn’t sleep inside and didn’t dare to move. The feeling of restraint was quite uncomfortable.

Lu Qingye opened the door and slowly closed it. Just as he was about to go downstairs, he saw Lu Jinsen, who had just returned home.

“Brother?” Lu Jinsen looked surprised and blinked. He thought that he was hallucinating because he was too tired from work today.

He bit his tongue lightly. When he felt the pain, he finally believed his eyes and asked in shock, “Big Brother, when did you come back?”

“…”

Faced with Lu Jinsen’s shock, Lu Qingye remained calm. He looked up and said softly, “Today.”

Seeing him come out of the bedroom in his pajamas, he did not seem to be in a good state. Thinking that Meng Chuyuan was also staying inside, Lu Jinsen made a bold guess. “She chased you out?”

Lu Qingye was a little displeased. His deep eyes shot out coldness. “What nonsense are you talking about?”

“So… you’re suffering from insomnia? Why don’t I go down and have a drink with you?” Lu Jinsen walked up to him and said, “Drinking some wine will help you sleep.”

Lu Qingye looked at him in disdain and said disdainfully, “If you want to drink, go ahead.”

He walked past Lu Jinsen and headed for the study.

“…”

The next morning, Lu Qingye came out of the study at dawn.

Last night, he had been busy with work in the study. After contacting Assistant Yang, he was fully focused on work. This sleepless night quickly passed.

Usually, Lu Qingye had to get up at this time to go to work, so he returned to the bedroom to wash up and change his clothes.

At that time, Meng Chuyuan was still asleep, so Lu Qingye did not disturb her. He changed his clothes and came out of the cloakroom. Just as he was about to leave, he remembered that his phone was still under his pillow.

Lu Qingye went around the end of the bed and slowly walked over to the pillow. He bent down and reached out to lift the pillow to look for his phone.

He couldn’t find it on the other side. Then, Lu Qingye guessed that the phone might be near Meng Chuyuan, so he leaned in.

As the other side of the pillow was very close to Meng Chuyuan’s face, Lu Qingye subconsciously softened his movements. His gaze landed on her facial features as he reached under the pillow and searched.

Lu Qingye searched blindly for a while and finally found his phone. Just as he pulled his hand out, the cufflink on his wrist gently brushed past Meng Chuyuan’s nose. It was a little cold and she woke up.

Meng Chuyuan sensed a faint shadow in front of her, and she slowly opened her eyes.

Seeing her open her eyes, Lu Qingye’s body stiffened and he asked in a low voice, “Did I wake you up?”

Lu Qingye’s sleeve was a little close to her face, and a fragrant smell wafted over. It was quite pleasant.

However, it blocked Meng Chuyuan’s line of sight. Then, she tilted her head back slightly and looked into Lu Qingye’s eyes. She raised the corners of her eyes slightly and asked, “What do you think?”
