Ye Mu was speechless.
Mo Linyuan looked at her calmly, “You’re going to reject me?”
Similarly, his hair was untied and flowed like a curtain. His handsome face still carried a smile. His chest was slightly exposed because his nightwear was tugged a bit to the side, , revealing his delicate collarbone. He had a noble and elegant appearance, but his words left people to indulge in their fantasies.
What should she do? The big bad wolf revealed his sharp claws and teeth. Should she go over?
Ye Mu’s body shrunk back. She became a coward in front of a person who she couldn’t hide or hit… She tried to gather her courage by hugging her pillow tightly and leaned forward to nervously assert, “I’m only twelve, you really can’t do anything to me!”
Mo Linyuan was torn between laughing or crying. Does he really typically treat her that badly? She was so young and pitiful, so how can he possibly do anything to her?
Of course, cuddling and kissing didn’t count.
“Come here.”
He smiled and sternly repeated it again.
Ye Mu knew that normally someone would be punished had he repeat his words a third time. Therefore, she quickly crawled over.
Thinking back, the last time they shared a bed was when they were very young. Now, Mo Linyuan has already grown into a handsome young man. She could longer be comfortable around him as she used to be when they were kids because he gave off a dangerous presence to her now.
Yet, the young boy from back the past still had a wise temperament than most kids his age. However, he was a seasoned hunter now.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Mo Linyuan enjoyed pinching Ye Mu’s cheeks. They were still soft just like when she was still a child. Her cheeks were warm, making him want to squeeze lovingly and never let go.
Ye Mu stared at him and gritted through her teeth, “Let be clear about one thing: you can’t move around at night because that will disturb me from sleeping comfortably!”
Mo Linyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, “Oh?”
He pressed Ye Mu down as he laid down. Then he scooped the little Ye Mu into his arms, sighing in content.
“Is this ok? Be good and I promise I won’t move.”
When she heard that, Ye Mu blushed involuntarily. It was strange. Mo Linyuan was still very young in her eyes, but why was her heart was beating rapidly while he hugged her like this?
Mo Linyuan rested his chin on top of her head and Ye Mu’s back was against his chest, feeling his heartbeat clearly. Not only did it not feel embarrassing at all to completely curl up in someone’s arms, she instead felt very safe.
After a moment, Mo Linyuan’s phoenix-like eyes narrowed slightly. In a low and ambiguous voice, he whispered in her ears, “Little Mu’er, your heart is pounding.”
Ye Mu’s heart started beating even faster instantly!
“That’s probably because I don’t like sleeping with the candles lit at night!”
Her voice was nervous and jumpy like a tense rabbit. But to him, she looked like a docile, innocent little rabbit.
Mo Linyuan smiled lightly. In the next second, he waved his hands and the candles in the room were all put out. Only the moonlight teased them from the window.
In the end, much to her dismay, Ye Mu quickly realized that her senses were amplified in the dark: she became even more hyper-aware of Mo Linyuan’s gentle breaths tickling her head… and above all, his heartbeat.
Hmph, what a hypocrite! Although his mouth has a talent for teasing people, his heartbeat gave away the truth. Not only was his heart beating against his chest very quickly, but also very loudly. How was she supposed to sleep tonight?
Both of them were at a loss for the helpless feeling they felt. Both of them were perplexed by the feeling of wanting to touch, but not daring to…
After a while, Mo Linyuan said softly, “Sleep. No matter what you hear tonight, don’t open your eyes.”
