Chapter 307: Wanting to Give Her the Best (Part 7)
Less than ten minutes later, Zhou Chengze’s phone lit up. Seeing a string of numbers sent over, Zhou Chengze squinted his eyes again.
With a slight movement of his fingers, he dialed the phone...
——
In the early morning, the sun leaped from the sea, and the beautiful glass villa was instantly bathed in the glow of dawn. Tang Yanqi hazily opened her eyes; she was very tired last night, utterly exhausted. But it was precisely this exhaustion that allowed Tang Yanqi to sleep so well, feeling indescribably refreshed all over.
She moved a little and found that her arm was being held by someone, unable to move. Tang Yanqi frowned and turned her head to see, instantly waking up.
She saw Sheng Jianan sleeping peacefully on his side, with both hands hugging her arm, his head level with her shoulder, looking so...
Four words popped into Tang Yanqi’s still not fully awake mind: "damsel in distress."
Even she was startled by her own thoughts, and a shiver ran through her body.
Sheng Jianan acting like a damsel? Who would believe that!
She slowly tried to extract her arm from the man’s embrace; the posture was just too odd.
Sheng Jianan seemed to be in a deep sleep, and Tang Yanqi’s careful movements didn’t wake him. Just as her arm was about to gain its freedom, the man who had been apparently asleep suddenly opened his eyes.
Tang Yanqi was startled. Immediately, Sheng Jianan shifted his body upwards, pulled her into his arms, pressing her head to his chest, and murmured in a sleepy, husky voice unique to men with a lazy charm: "Sleep a little longer."
Both of them were stark naked, and Tang Yanqi’s face flushed as she reached out to push the person in front of her: "I remembered."
As if he hadn’t heard her, Tang Yanqi pushed him again. The person, seemingly unhappy about being disturbed, raised his hand to lift Tang Yanqi’s chin, gave her a deep kiss, and then opened his sleepy eyes: "Don’t run off first, wait for me."
Tang Yanqi was speechless. Where could she possibly run off to?
There were no classes this morning, and in the afternoon, she was to seek her tutor’s guidance for her thesis. And wasn’t her tutor this very Buddha-like figure in front of her?
Besides, being by the seaside and far from the main road, she wasn’t about to torture herself by walking out.
"Hmm, not running, just remembered something."
Speaking softly, the person seemed satisfied, kissed her forehead again, released her, and turned over to continue sleeping.
One couldn’t blame Young Master Sheng for being tired; he was the one exerting effort last night and nearly stayed up all night.
It wasn’t until the dawn began to appear that he fell asleep. He’s not a robot; of course, he’s tired.
Tang Yanqi got up, took a quick shower. The dress from last night couldn’t be worn again. Wrapping herself in a towel with a hopeful heart, she walked to the walk-in closet. Unlike the one at Lake Bay Villa, this closet was quite empty. Sheng Jianan’s clothes occupied about seven or eight sets, and on the other side, there were some women’s casual clothes.
Tang Yanqi didn’t think these belonged to some other woman. Sheng Jianan was never a playboy when it came to women; she was sure of that.
So these must have been prepared for her. The tags were already removed from the clothes, but they fit her size perfectly. Finding a gray-white set to change into, Tang Yanqi finally turned to go downstairs.
Downstairs, there was no tidying up, still a mess, and most conspicuous was the pile of gifts on one side of the sofa.
Tang Yanqi picked up the books sent by Bai Bing and Bai Xue, and the orange-shaped keychain sent by Qi Cheng.
