Ji Shiting didn’t say anything for a long time, but his breathing was heavy.
“Do you feel uncomfortable sleeping at night?” He suddenly asked.
Ye Shengge shook her head.
However, Ji Shiting didn’t miss that moment of hesitation.
“You can puke at night too, right?” He put his fingers in her hair.
“Sometimes…”
“Are you still going to lock yourself up?” he asked.
“It’s mainly because I’m afraid of accidents now that I have a baby,” Ye Shengge explained. “Most importantly, I’m used to it. Don’t worry about me.”
Ji Shiting pursed his lips and put his hand on her waist. “I’ll come tomorrow morning.”
“Then…”
“I’ll ask Sun Ye to deliver the work here,” the man interrupted her.
Ye Shengge knew she couldn’t convince him otherwise, so she nodded.
Ji Shiting carried her to the bathroom for a shower, and he kissed her for a while, almost unable to stop.
After a long time, Ji Shiting finally put on his clothes, and Ye Shengge put on a set of home clothes to send him downstairs.
…
There was no one in the living room downstairs.
It was late at night, and Ye Shengge felt sour after sending the man to the door.
She also hoped that the man could be by her side all the time, especially at night. After all, she had Lin Qi to take care and accompany her during the day, but at night, she was alone. Sometimes, waking up in the middle of the night felt terrible.
However, she couldn’t say it. Besides making Ji Shiting feel sorry for himself, it didn’t help at all.
However, at least she didn’t have to push him away now. After all, they were still together.
Ji Shiting could see the reluctance on the woman’s face under the moonlight and the dim streetlights.
He couldn’t help pulling her into his embrace. “Call me if you need anything, okay?”
Ye Shengge nodded and said, “Go on. It’s really late.”
Ji Shiting snorted and didn’t let her go until the woman started to push him. “Go back first.”
“I’ll wait for you to get into the car before going back.”
“No. I can’t leave if you stay here.” The man’s voice became hoarse.
Ye Shengge nodded.
She turned around and left, walking very slowly. She resisted the urge to look back at him. She kept telling herself that she could see him again tomorrow before she could suppress the reluctance in her heart.
Ji Shiting clenched his fist and watched the woman leave. After a while, he took a deep breath and returned to the car, but he didn’t start the car immediately. Instead, he lit up a cigarette.
It had been a long day, and the man realized that he was going to be a father again.
He suddenly smiled.
…
After Ye Shengge went upstairs, Lin Qi came out of her room.
“Has Mr. Ji left, Sister Shengge?”
Ye Shengge nodded and said, “Are you sleepy, Lin Qi?”
She shook her head.
“Then watch TV with me.” Ye Shengge smiled. “Let’s watch ‘Xue Ning’.”
Although it was getting late, she didn’t want to return to the empty room.
“Okay,” Lin Qi agreed.
Ye Shengge suddenly recalled something. “Where’s Li Yinian? She doesn’t seem to be home.”
