She was fire.
He was a glacier.
Ye Tianxin, who was trembling, could only bury her head in Li Qingcang’s embrace.
Li Qincang reached out and gently brushed away the hair on Ye Tianxin’s face. He held her tightly in his arms, and his eyes were filled with worry.
‘Qie Yiyan, you f*cking idiot! It was all your fault,’ Li Qingcang thought. ‘Little Tianxin wouldn’t be having nightmares if it weren’t for you taking her to a deserted island!’
Ye Tianxin’s cotton nightgown was drenched in sweat. It stuck to her skin, revealing her curvy figure.
However, at this moment, Li Qingcang was only focused on making sure that Ye Tianxin was okay. She looked terrified.
“Tianxin, calm down. Don’t be afraid. I’m here. I won’t leave you,” Li Qingcang promised.
“Sleep well, my dear Tianxin. I’ll be here with you.”
Li Qingcang’s voice was gentle and soothing. Ye Tianxin calmed down.
Li Qingcang heaved a sigh of relief and touched Ye Tianxin’s face. Her face was leaning against his chest, and her slender arms were tightly wrapped around his waist. She didn’t say a word.
“Have a nice dream.”
A few minutes passed when Li Qingcang saw Ye Tianxin sleeping peacefully. Her face looked angelic, as if she didn’t have a nightmare earlier.
Only then did he realize that he and Ye Tianxin was too intimate.
His gaze landed on Ye Tianxin’s face uneasily. A cold liquid flowed down from the tip of his nose and dripped onto Ye Tianxint’s neck.
I…
Li Qingcang panicked and quickly wiped the blood from his nose.
His nose usually bled when the weather was humid. He must have been too busy recently to notice that the weather changed.
However, Li Qingcang did not expect that the more he wiped, the more his nose bled.
He could only gently laid Ye Tianxin down. Then, he covered his nose, which was still bleeding, and went to the bathroom. After cleaning up his nose, he went up to the attic and wiped Ye Tianxin’s face and neck with a wet towel.
When he was done, he quietly stood up when Ye Tianxin hugged his arm tightly and refused to let go.
Li Qincang decided it would be best to sleep beside Ye Tianxin.
Ye Tianxin was sleeping at ease, while Li Qincang could not fall asleep at all. He was thinking of Ye Tianxin’s delicate face and her fair skin.
Li Qingcang took a deep breath and started to recite the regulations and rules in his mind. He thought it would help him fall asleep.
Every term of these regulations and rules was so boring, yet he memorized it word for word.
At some point, Li Qincang finally fell asleep.
Then Li Qincang had a dream.
In his dream, he was on a mission, arriving in a tropical rain forest.
He lost his way in the rainforest.
Unconsciously, he arrived in front of a lake. The scenery by the lake was extremely beautiful. He scooped up a handful of water, washed his face, and then sat on the rocks by the lake to rest.
Suddenly, a fairy-like beauty emerged from the lake and stood with her back to him. Her long hair reached her waist. Her fair skin glowed like jade under the sunlight.
His heart skipped a beat in surprise. The beautiful figure seemed quite familiar, but he couldn’t call to mind where he had seen her before.
The woman was like some mysterious fairy. She dived into the lake and disappeared without a trace. Li Qingcang wondered where she went.
