Chapter 396 Your Gaze is Like the Sea (11)
The pillow will be laid flat once we sleep, and if I’m not careful, it’ll be exposed again...Qiao Mo looked around the room; the trash can was far away from her.
Both sides of the floor were empty, even the box and packaging paper from earlier had been taken away as garbage by Fu Nancheng.
How about hiding it under the bed?
But after lowering her head to take a look, Qiao Mo abandoned that thought...
The hospital bed is different from the one at home, even in a high-end ward, it’s not a hotel, and under the bed is empty...
You can see right through it.
Cabinet?
Where’s the cabinet...
Qiao Mo started examining the bedside cabinet. There’s a drawer under it, but she’s not sure if opening the door would make a sound and catch Fu Nancheng’s attention.
"What are you thinking?" Fu Nancheng put down a document and slowly looked at her.
"Hm? Ah! I was just reading a book and thinking." Qiao Mo casually touched the book beside her, picked it up, and showed it to Fu Nancheng to indicate she was genuinely thinking.
He withdrew his gaze indifferently, his eyes resting again on the document in his hand, with a faint smile at the corner of his lips.
Randomly flipping a page, Qiao Mo held the book, but didn’t actually look at it.
She was just using the book to cover her face, to keep an eye on Fu Nancheng’s movements at all times...
Where to hide it?
This is driving me crazy...
Before she could think of anything, Fu Nancheng’s assistant had already bought the wontons and returned.
Fu Nancheng took the food box, spoon in hand, and sat by the bed to feed her.
"I can eat by myself, you should go work..."
Qiao Mo casually placed the book on the bedside cabinet, feeling scared inside, her body stiff against the pillow, afraid that whatever was behind it might accidentally roll out.
But he showed no intention of leaving, his gaze fixed on her face: "Eat less; it’s already ten o’clock."
Qiao Mo nodded; truth be told, she wasn’t hungry at all.
...
After briefly freshening up, it was already eleven o’clock. After tidying up, he also got into bed, and Qiao Mo still hadn’t managed to hide what was behind the pillow.
Fu Nancheng checked the time, then turned to her and said: "Sleep."
Qiao Mo felt a tight squeeze in her heart; if they went to sleep, the pillow would be lowered... it would be impossible not to see those things...
Picking up the book from the bedside again, she said: "I slept a lot during the day, so I’m not tired."
Fu Nancheng’s gaze lightly swept over the book in her hand, the corners of his lips lifted, but he didn’t push her, instead, he picked up another document to start reading.
Qiao Mo secretly glanced at him, her gaze fell on the book.
She felt he was so close to her, it was even harder to manage now...
What on earth should I do?
This is really...
She randomly flipped two pages with her fingers to avoid him noticing anything unusual.
But even then, her gaze landed on the book, and Qiao Mo’s eyes nearly popped out in shock.
On the pages, a man and a woman sketched with lines were engaging in a high-intensity primal activity, the scenario was so intense it made one’s blood race uncontrollably.
What...what is this...
Qiao Mo was genuinely flustered now.
She hurriedly flipped a few more pages, and the further she went, the hotter her face grew, instantly blushing as if dyed with a red glow.
Inside the book, every few pages were illustrated with some sketches.
The illustrations depicted a man and a woman performing various kinds of high-intensity primal actions.
Although the characters were merely black line drawings, not lively or vivid, the woman’s breasts and thighs, and the man’s muscular thighs and body were clearly visible.
Qiao Mo’s cheeks flushed red, she quickly closed the book, and looked at the title, "A Hundred ’Knowledges’ You Don’t Understand"
