Chapter 1230 - 1250: Will He Let Her
Before Xia Xiaonuan left, she stood at the door and mischievously spoke.Before Nangong Yaoling could react, she had already vanished from the doorway.
The faint scent of milk lingered in the air.
Nangong Yaoling’s eye twitched slightly.
In his mind, the image of her playing pranks with "spiked" milk resurfaced.
He couldn’t help but smile at the corner of his mouth.
He worked for ten minutes and glanced at the glass of milk in front of him.
Another ten minutes passed, and he looked again.
After another five minutes...
He frowned slightly, reached out, and picked up the glass of milk.
He tilted his head back and drank the milk in one go.
After finishing, milk still lingered on his mouth, but he didn’t wipe it off. He set down the glass and continued working.
After a little while, a small figure sneaked to the study door.
Through the crack in the door, she saw the man’s handsome face, his mouth still stained with milk, making her cover her mouth to stifle a laugh, and she tiptoed back to the bedroom.
In the middle of the night.
A figure once again emerged from the bedroom.
Nangong Yaoling was asleep in the study, having not locked the door.
Wearing pajamas, Xia Xiaonuan quietly pushed open the door using the small wall light in the corridor.
She then looked at the sleeping man on the bed, walked over, quietly climbed into bed, and lay down next to him.
Nangong Yaoling was sleeping on his back, and she rested her head on his chest, curling into a small ball.
One hand gently wrapped around the man’s waist.
In the darkness, the man’s handsome face, with its distinct features, exuded an overwhelming charm and grace.
A warm breath tickled his armpit, causing the man in his sleep to lightly flutter his eyelashes and slowly open his eyes.
A faint scent of hair drifted over, and he lowered his gaze slightly.
The girl beneath him soon emitted a steady breathing sound; her breaths were soft and gentle against his body.
He furrowed his brow slightly, shifted his body, but found that one of her hands was gripping his waist tightly.
For a moment, a complex and peculiar glint flashed in the man’s dark eyes.
On impulse, he instinctively lowered his head and gently kissed her hair.
Then, the corners of his mouth quirked up slightly.
Just like this...
He thought to himself, listening to her breathing, feeling the warmth beneath his arm, and gently closed his eyes.
Xia Xiaonuan had planned to wake up early and sneak back to her bedroom before dawn.
But ever since being with Nangong Yaoling, she had become accustomed to sleeping in and awoke to find the outside already bright.
She recalled something and hastily turned over, only to find that familiar presence long gone.
She frustratedly stretched out her hand to pat her forehead, damn it, overslept!
What now... she had been caught... Nangong Yaoling surely wouldn’t let her ’sneak in’ again tonight, right?
Shortly after Xia Xiaonuan got up, she heard the servant say Mr. Qin had arrived.
She was slightly stunned, then hurried downstairs.
Qin Yi stood in the living room, looking as if something was on his mind.
Xia Xiaonuan smiled and approached him quickly, "What’s wrong with you today? Coming by the house suddenly, is there something you need?"
Qin Yi looked at Xia Xiaonuan, his expression seemed a bit unnatural, and he asked, "Young Mistress, is your health better?"
"Much better. If there’s something, please have a seat and tell me."
The servant brought tea over, and Qin Yi took a sip.
Then, his eyes instinctively glanced at the servant beside him.
Xia Xiaonuan caught on and quickly told the servant, "You all can continue with your work."
