Chapter 242 - 228: Do You Want to See the Mid-Autumn Festival Gift I Got You?
This question is a query.Jiang Ruan replied: "Hmm, maybe you’re just too tired."
But she felt relieved in her heart.
He finally woke up, her legs were completely numb.
"How long did I sleep?"
Thinking that he was still lying on her lap, Bao Ye sat up, tidied his clothes, and asked her.
"Not long." Jiang Ruan said, "About an hour."
As she spoke, she tried to move her right leg, and suddenly felt an intense sensation of swelling, sore and painful.
Jiang Ruan’s lower back was thoroughly numbed.
She heard Bao Ye’s low voice: "Don’t move."
Jiang Ruan lifted her gaze, he bent over and held her shoulder: "Lie down first, it will help relieve the numbness."
Jiang Ruan lay down, surprised: "How did you know my leg was numb?"
Bao Ye chuckled: "That’s just common sense, okay."
He slept on her leg for so long.
He didn’t need to think to know how numb her leg must be.
Thinking about this, Bao Ye felt a bit guilty, holding her slender calf gently and asked her: "Does it hurt?"
Jiang Ruan hissed and said: "A bit."
Bao Ye softened his voice: "Then I’ll be gentler."
"It won’t be numb in five minutes at most."
Jiang Ruan: "Okay."
She lay comfortably, feeling the warmth of his palms pressing lightly on her calf.
Gradually, her leg regained sensation.
Once she was completely better, she sat up: "Not numb anymore."
Bao Ye finally let go, looking at her, said: "Why didn’t you wake me up earlier?"
Jiang Ruan shrugged: "Soft-hearted, seeing you sleep so soundly, thinking you were busy all day. I didn’t want to wake you when you finally fell asleep."
Listening to this, Bao Ye’s heart felt touched, his throat somewhat stinging.
His eyes were dark and unclear, and he muttered: "Silly."
"You could have woken me up and I would still fall back asleep."
Jiang Ruan retorted: "I am silly, soft-hearted for you, and you call me names. Do you even have a conscience?"
Jiang Ruan gave him a disapproving look, picked up her phone, and got off the sofa, her bare feet stepping on the carpet.
His gaze followed her back.
Watched her enter the bathroom.
Jiang Ruan didn’t forget she had laundry to do, first took out the clothes from the washing machine, hung them on hangers, and on the clothes rack on the balcony outside.
Turning back to the bathroom, she saw Bao Ye standing in front of the washbasin.
The faucet was running, and he was washing his hands.
But standing like this, he just happened to block her way.
Jiang Ruan crossed her hands over her chest, waited for him to finish washing and turn off the faucet before speaking: "Move aside, you’re blocking my way."
Bao Ye lifted a hand to pull out some tissues, wiped his hands, and while doing so, raised his eyelids to look at her: "What’s the rush."
Jiang Ruan watched him wipe each finger meticulously, couldn’t help but roll her eyes secretly.
Finally, he threw them in the trash.
Jiang Ruan thought he would move aside, but only realized it was just her assumption.
Bao Ye lowered his gaze, his eyes landing on her small face.
Said: "Today is Mid-Autumn Festival."
Jiang Ruan nodded: "Yes, I know."
Suddenly remembered: "We haven’t eaten mooncakes yet."
"Seems like we didn’t say Happy Mid-Autumn Festival either."
Jiang Ruan chuckled in disbelief, wondering what they had been busy with all day.
It seemed that for adults, Mid-Autumn was becoming less important.
"Bao Ye, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival." Jiang Ruan said sincerely.
Bao Ye curled his lips, replied: "Same to you."
"Shall we go out to eat mooncakes?" Jiang Ruan suggested.
He heard Bao Ye say: "No rush."
He still stood in front of her, blocking her.
Jiang Ruan chuckled helplessly.
She was in a hurry.
It was late at night, and only the two of them were there.
Experience told Jiang Ruan that now was the time when things could easily happen.
Her back was still sore and her leg still hurt.
Couldn’t handle any fuss anymore.
Jiang Ruan just found an excuse, about to speak: "Right, I suddenly remembered..."
Didn’t finish before being interrupted by Bao Ye.
"Do you want to see the Mid-Autumn gift I got for you?"
