Chapter 1915: 1915

It was a sleepless night .

Ye Qianqian slept in the living room, her entire body aching furiously .

The night before was intense, and she had yet to fully recover from it .

Tomorrow was the eve of the Lunar New Year, and Ye Qianqian kept feeling a sense of anxiety as the New Year grew closer .

Her heart raced madly as she tossed and turned in bed, and she couldn’t seem to fall asleep no matter what she did .

Suddenly, her phone, which was at the head of her bed, vibrated .

It was a WeChat message .

Shen Zhilie: “Are you asleep?”

Ye Qianqian took one glance at the time and noticed that it was already past 1:00 a . m .

She picked up her phone and let out a long sigh before typing a reply: “No . ”

Shen Zhilie: “I’m coming over . ”

Ye Qianqian’s heart jolted in surprise . She found it rather inappropriate .

Just when she was about to text Shen Zhilie to tell him not to come, she heard a knock at the door, and a look of reluctance came over her face .

Ye Qianqian lay on the bed and pretended to be dead, but Shen Zhilie quickly began to knock on the door again .

She got up and opened the door, as though resigned to her fate .

Shen Zhilie was scantily dressed, wearing a set of long-sleeved pajamas and nothing else .

The moment he saw Ye Qianqian, he broke into a radiant smile . He came forward and hugged her before entering the room .

“I can’t sleep,” he said .

Ye Qianqian felt a sense of surprise . She subconsciously glanced behind Shen Zhilie, but there was no one behind him .

Ye Qianqian heaved a sigh of relief . “That’s right,” she thought . “It’s past 1:00 a . m, so why would there be anyone up?”

Ye Qianqian closed the door to the room, then turned around . Before she had the chance to take a clear look at Shen Zhilie, he had already picked her up and turned around to pin her down on the bed .

Ye Qianqian let out a yelp of surprise as Shen Zhilie pinned her down and said softly, “I’ll sleep with you . ”

Ye Qianqian struggled for a while, then said, “This bed is small . It’s not enough room for two people . ”

“Why don’t we head over to my room?” Shen Zhilie got up and gazed at her with his amber eyes . “Let’s go . We’ll sleep together . You’ll sleep better . ”

“No,” Ye Qianqian resisted . “It wouldn’t be nice if Grandmother saw us . She might even comment about it . That’s not something I want . ”

Shen Zhilie directly laid down on top of her like a corpse and said, “Let’s sleep like this, then . We’ll save space if we stack ourselves on top of each other . ”

Ye Qianqian had a look of contempt on her face as she replied, “Get lost . Don’t you know how heavy you are?”

Shen Zhilie chuckled, then hugged her . He narrowed his eyes and said, “Qianqian?”

“What is it?” Ye Qianqian focused her eyes on him .

“Hmm…” Shen Zhilie clung to her and whispered, “What should I do? I want you . ”

Ye Qianqian’s face flushed slightly . “Are you crazy?” she said . “We’re at your house!”

However, Shen Zhilie couldn’t be bothered . He reached out his hand and caressed her body, which was only clad in a thin set of pajamas .

Ye Qianqian caught hold of his hand and said, “I’ll be mad at you if you keep this up . ”

Shen Zhilie didn’t dare to try again . He lay down flat and said, “I can’t sleep . ”

“You slept too much during the day . ”

“Well, it’s the eve of the Lunar New Year tomorrow . ”

Ye Qianqian turned her head sideways to look at Shen Zhilie, who coincidentally also turned his head to look at her .

Their eyes met, and Ye Qianqian felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction in her heart .

Shen Zhilie chuckled softly and said, “We have something going on tomorrow . Grandmother’s having visitors over, and they’re all elders . Don’t be nervous tomorrow, though . Just face it as you normally would . ”

“What are they visiting Grandmother for?”

“I don’t know . They come over every year . ”

Ye Qianqian thought this was a little odd . “Isn’t it way too early for that?” she asked . “Don’t visitors usually come over on the second day of the Lunar New Year? I thought people normally had reunions on the eve of the New Year . ”

“This old lady is really different from other people!” she thought .

Shen Zhilie yawned and said, “Who knows? Those people come over every year . They’re slightly older than my grandmother, so they’re considered my elders . I usually address them as Grandfather or Grandmother . You can just address them the same way I do . ”
