Chapter 206 – Now that his feelings for her had already past platonic, what should he do next? (1)
Ruan Xia thought she would suffer from insomnia for sure. After all, in the previous life and in this life, she had never shared a bed with a man before, especially with a man that she now had improper thoughts about.
Sure enough, flags couldn’t be casually put up. When she had just transmigrated over, she had solemnly vowed that she wouldn’t encroach upon Song Tingshen. After all, he wasn’t her husband in the truest sense. To accept the original owner’s husband and child with a clear conscience right after transmigrating over... that really wouldn’t be right. In addition, at that time, she was happy with her newly gained riches and free time, and she thought poorly of all men. So why on earth would she hope for love? Back then, she thought being roommates seemed pretty good.
Did this count as slapping herself in the face?
There might be people in this world that thought love wasn’t rare and didn’t cherish it, but she was a woman in her youth after all. She was with such an outstanding man, day after day, and he would frequently intentionally or unintentionally tease her. The only reason she was able to stop herself from jumping him was because her mother’s earnest exhorting over many years that “girls have to be reserved and conservative” had a certain effect.
Girls have to be reserved and conservative...
Ai! Thank you, mom!
Ruan Xia sneakily peeked at Song Tingshen. With the light of the moon, she could see that he had already closed his eyes. She didn’t know if he had fallen asleep. Could this be the difference between a man in his 30’s and a young woman in her 20’s? She wasn’t able to sleep because of his actions, but he was still calm. Perhaps, he was also aware that she was at a loss and flustered.
When she can’t sleep, her brain would be very active with spinning stories. In those stories, she would be one of the female leads. Sometimes, she would fall asleep before the male lead appeared in the story.
Tonight, her fantasy was very satisfying.
In the story, Song Tingshen pursued her in various ways while she was noble, cool, elegant, magnificent...
Before she could imagine an ardent confession from him, she had fallen into dreamland.
There was the sound of uniform breathing by his ear. He didn’t know if it was from Little Wang or her. Song Tingshen opened his eyes to the ceiling. He turned his head and saw that Ruan Xia had already closed her eyes and was probably asleep.
Song Tingshen inevitably felt a bit envious that she was young enough that she can sleep even under such circumstances.
His nose was full of her scent. Song Tingshen felt as if he had returned to that night from a few years ago.
No, tonight wasn’t exactly the same.
That night, he had wanted to indulge and wasn’t flustered. As for tonight, even though nothing had happened and no intimate behavior occurred between them, he found it difficult to force himself to calm down.
He didn’t know how long he was wide awake. He was already mentally very tired, but when he closed his eyes, he couldn’t fall asleep. So, he softly and quietly got up and made sure she and Little Wang were covered up by the blanket. When he had walked to the other side of the bed, he saw that she was sweetly sleeping and didn’t notice that a man was looking at her deeply.
Song Tingshen gently touched her cheek, but he quickly pulled his hand away as if he had been shocked by electricity.
In the end, he returned to the other side of the bed in a very contradictory mood.
In the past, he had treated Ruan Xia as someone he had met at a blind date. Now that his feelings for her had already past platonic, what should he do next?
