She had not known that Mo could cook, but his dishes tasted amazing. Her impression of him was totally renewed when she realised he could be useful too.

It was bedtime again after dinner. After the three washed up, Ye Ling left, because tonight it was Ye Mo's turn to sleep with Liu Duo.

An oil lamp was lit in the room. Liu Duo untied her hair and combed it straight. She went to the bedside and took off her clothes. She felt a little nervous sleeping with Ye Mo, since the two of them had not been getting along.

Ye Mo was especially nervous too. Ye Liu's warnings to him after recent incidents were still fresh in his mind, but his feelings and attitude towards Liu Duo had changed a lot, so he was more cautious.

Liu Duo climbed into bed in her undergarment and lay under the blanket with her back to Ye Mo.

Then, Ye Mo blew out the oil lamp. He too was in his undergarments, but he was not underneath his blanket. Instead, just like Ye Liu, he crawled under Liu Duo's blanket and shared hers.

The difference was that he was wearing a shirt, and he was not hugging her.

Since Ye Ling had left, the two of them had not spoken a word - like mutes.

Liu Duo got so scared she could not move. Gosh, this fool. Why did he come in here? She clenched her blanket and moved further to the side in an attempt to stay away from him.

It turned out that she had stolen half of the blanket on Ye Mo's body, leaving him only half covered.

With the blanket half stolen, Ye Mo looked at the back of her head, and he broke into a silent grin. He shoved his body and moved behind her, once again crawling under her blanket.

This time Liu Duo could not move. Ye Mo held out his arms and brought her into a hug, "Are you planning to freeze your husband to death, stealing the blanket like that?"

Liu Duo was already so scared she could barely speak, and this doofus actually came to hug her? And saying such things too. Damn, she almost thought it was Ye Liu, the hooligan!

"Let me go, get your own blanket!" Surprised, she struggled, trying to free herself from his embrace.

"Not going to. It's warm like this." He saw her struggling, so he held her even tighter, even closer.

He thought, You stole my blanket first! But what Liu said was true, hugging the wife makes things much more comfortable. And she smells nice. So soft.

If Liu Duo knew what he was thinking, she would have been devastated. You fool! No wonder you look so similar to Ye Liu, that hooligan!

They had not been getting along, even if Ye Mo had been acting strangely that day. But being in his embrace like this made Liu Duo very nervous.

When Ye Liu was hugging her, though it was dangerous, he did not do anything to her. But she could not guarantee it would be the same with this fool!

This fellow was impulsive and violent. Even though he had not beaten her, she was unable to block whatever else he might do to her. The disparity in strength between man and woman was very real.

At this point, Liu Duo struggled even more forcefully, but Ye Mo was reluctant to let go. On the contrary, her struggling elicited a response within him.

She felt something push against her behind. She was so frightened she stopped moving. Her heart beat extremely quickly, and she got uncontrollably nervous.

"Why aren't you moving? Hmm..." He asked in a deep voice.

He hugged her tightly in an attempt to drown out his discomfort. However, he could smell her fragrance, and he touched her soft bodice, and this heated him up even more.

"You… you let go of me! It's quite cramped over here. Let's just use our own blankets. It's much better that way," Liu Duo muttered carefully, afraid he would unleash his carnal desires. He was not Ye Liu. This fellow could act on impulse. She could not urge him now! Definitely not!
