YunyiYunyi
Mo Zixi already had a bath, so when he carried Xingzhe into the bedroom, he watched Yao Anqi walk into the bathroom wearing a bathrobe.
He felt a little awkward, but fortunately, the little Xingzhe in his arms was very understanding. He knew his Daddy was a little shy, so he grabbed the back of his hand.
Mo Zixi tucked Xingzhe into bed and sang him a lullaby. For him, the most important thing that night was his son.
But, he completely underestimated Yao Anqi’s body.
After finishing her bath, Yao Anqi stepped out of the bathroom in her bathrobe. But even so, Mo Zixi could imagine how feminine and alluring she looked underneath it all.
Hence, he looked away and placed his gaze on Xingzhe’s bed.
Yao Anqi walked over to the dressing table as though no one was around and started applying her usual skin care. However, her bathrobe slipped off her thigh, revealing her legs to Mo Zixi’s line of sight.
Mo Zixi felt a little awkward as he reminded, “Can you…fix your robe a little?”
Yao Anqi looked at him blankly. She then glanced down at the robe on her body, but she didn’t feel like there was anything wrong with it.
“I’m a healthy and grown man,” Mo Zixi explained.
As Yao Anqi was a doctor, she had already gotten used to things like this, so she didn’t feel like she needed to be cautious around Mo Zixi. But since Mo Zixi had something to say about it, she obediently adjusted her robe.
Afterwards, Yao Anqi lay on the bed and started flipping through her surgery notes for the following day.
When Mo Zixi finished coaxing Xingzhe to sleep, he looked at Yao Anqi and felt a little awkward, but he still walked over to the bed and pulled back the covers. He then lay down next to Yao Anqi…
“Good night.” Without prior notice, Yao Anqi put down the notes in her hands, lay down and turned off her bedside lamp.
Mo Zixi followed fit and also turned off the lamp beside him. Amidst the darkness, no one said a word. All that could be heard was the sound of breathing.
Next to Mo Zixi, Yao Anqi’s fragrance drifted into his nose. The more he smelled it, the more familiar it became, reminding him of that fateful night 4 years ago. Although the two of them were drunk, this familiar scent ignited his senses and made his body automatically heat up.
Therefore, he subconsciously kept his distance from Yao Anqi so he wouldn’t be discovered.
But, Yao Anqi already knew, because, she too remembered that night.
Now that this familiar man was sleeping beside her, her original tiredness had completely dissipated.
“Zixi…” Yao Anqi suddenly called out.
“Huh?” Mo Zixi immediately asked. “Why aren’t you sleeping?”
“I can’t sleep,” Yao Anqi replied. “Perhaps, I’m not used to suddenly having someone sleeping beside me.”
“In that case…do you want me to sleep on the sofa outside?” Mo Zixi offered.
“No, I need to eventually get used to this.” After this, Yao Anqi fell silent and Mo Zixi did not move out to the sofa.
It wasn’t easy for him to get into the master bedroom, how could he leave so easily?
At that moment, Xingzhe was asleep in his little bed, and the woman that he owed for 4 years, was currently lying in the big bed.
This time, he wasn’t leaving no matter what. So, amidst the darkness, Mo Zixi stretched out his hand and placed it on Yao Anqi’s waist. To his surprise, Yao Anqi did not retaliate.
It was a mutual understanding and agreement.
Both of them were actually trying to grow closer to each other. So, when the opportunity came, they both grabbed onto it!
