The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went upstairs. Zhu Ruyu found the newly bought pajamas from the bedroom and gave them to Gu Nian. She told her to go to bed early at night and she went back to her room to take a shower.
Gu Nian returned to the room, spread out her pajamas and checked them again. She was sure that it was not revealing as her mother-in-law said. Anyway, at least it was acceptable to her. Then she went to the bathroom to run water and take a bath with complete peace of mind.
Since Fu Yiyang knew he was sick, he rarely stayed up late to work. He usually went back to his room to rest no later than nine o'clock. Especially today, when his son and daughter-in-law stayed at home for the night, he couldn't stay up late, even if he thought there was still a copy in the study.
The documents were waiting for him to process, but he didn't go there.
After they all went back to their rooms to rest, Fu Yanxiao went to the study to finish the work he had piled up, and also took care of his father's unprocessed documents.
It was almost midnight when Fu Yanxiao finished his work.
He returned to the bedroom and found that Gu Nian had fallen asleep on the bed.
I took a casual shower and then went to bed quietly. I had just taken a shower, and even though I had dried the water droplets with a towel, my body was still wet and my hands and feet were a little cold.
Fu Yanxiao was about to wait until his body got warmer before hugging Gu Nian, but as soon as he covered himself with the quilt and lay down, she squirmed towards him and burrowed into his arms like a small insect.
Fu Yanxiao was stunned for a moment and bowed slightly, trying to avoid her.
"Husband." Gu Nian was drowsily asleep. He put his hand on Fu Yanxiao's waist and said in a soft voice, "You are so cold."
Fu Yanxiao paused and gave a low hum. He lowered his head and saw that her eyes were closed and she was clearly asleep. He couldn't help but feel funny in his heart. He curled the corners of his mouth slightly and put his hand on her hair, stroking it.
.
Gu Nian probably didn't sleep peacefully, because his head was arched in Fu Yanxiao's arms again, and his hands unconsciously touched his body, making slight humming sounds from time to time.
"Nian Nian?" Fu Yanxiao touched her forehead and found that she was sweating a lot. He quickly took out a tissue to dry her and went to find a thermometer to measure her temperature to see if she had a fever.
Fortunately, I was just sweating and didn't have a fever.
Fu Yanxiao breathed a sigh of relief, but frowned. He stared at the woman huddled on the bed and couldn't help but sigh. Then he got on the bed and lay down, holding her in his arms and placing his hands on her back.
Pat it gently one after another, like coaxing a child to sleep.
Gu Nian woke up suddenly. When she opened her eyes, she found Fu Yanxiao hugging her. She said in a daze, "When did you return to your room? How come I didn't know?"
"I just came back and was about to go to bed." Fu Yanxiao touched Gu Nian's face and asked in a low voice, "Did you just have a nightmare?"
Gu Nian's face showed a bit of confusion, and she felt sticky and uncomfortable. She blinked and said, "Maybe."
Fu Yanxiao asked her: "Do you want to wash it off? You just sweated all over and your body is a little sticky. It's not comfortable to sleep like this and you can easily catch a cold."
Gu Nian also felt uncomfortable, but after changing into this set of pajamas, there was nothing to wear. Could it be that he had to sleep naked?
