Both parties on both sides of the door were pensive .
Seeing that she really wasn't going to open the door, Yin Shaojie slapped it helplessly and said, "When are you going to calm down? I don't want to sleep on the sofa again tonight…"
It had already been uncomfortable enough for him to sleep on the sofa the previous night .
Even though the suite at the hot spring villa was not bad, the sofa couldn't be compared to his own bed .
Also, he really hated sleeping on the sofa!
He really wanted a good rest now, which meant not sleeping on the sofa anymore .
All would have been good if he hadn't mentioned the sofa . However, since she did, Mu Xiaoxiao called out from the room, "Don't you dare come in! Sleep on the sofa then! Or . . Or, you can just sleep outside!"
Mu Xiaoxiao instantly regretted her words as soon as she said them .
What if Yin Shaojie really went out to sleep in a hotel?
However, words, like water that had been spilled, could not be taken back .
Despite her distress, Mu Xiaoxiao was too embarrassed to withdraw her remark .
She turned around and planted her face against the door, listening for sounds from outside .
Her heart hung in the balance, afraid to hear the sound of Yin Shaojie going out the door .
Luckily, she only heard Yin Shaojie whisper outside the door, "There's nothing I can do about you, huh…" .
He then stopped slapping the door and went over to the sofa to lay down .
He pulled out the pillow under his waist and found that it was the one she had used earlier . He held it near his nose and took a sniff . It had a hint of her fragrance .
Yin Shaojie hugged the pillow to his chest . I shall pretend that this is her, for now .
Ever since the both of them started living together, he had gotten used to sleeping with her . He was used to seeing her fluffy head against his chest every morning when he woke up .
Now that he was sleeping alone, the area around his chest felt empty . It felt strange .
Yin Shaojie eyed the door to the bedroom once more, his gaze indescribably longing .
He placed his arm on top of the pillow and sighed .
In the room .
Mu Xiaoxiao sat plastered against the door for a long while . Not hearing any signs of Yin Shaojie going out, the burden in her heart lifted .
Sitting on the floor, she realized that the sky had already darkened, bathing the room in darkness .
She stood up hurriedly and turned on the lights .
She looked around the large room . It looked gigantic and empty with only her in it .
She had never felt such a sensation before!
Could it be because Yin Shaojie wasn't in the room?
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at the time . It was only past seven o'clock; it was too early for sleeping .
Oh yeah, how was she going to shower later?
This was indeed a dilemma…
Time flew by .
It was now eleven o'clock at night .
Mu Xiaoxiao opened the door discreetly . She peeked out from behind the door before sticking her head out .
There was no one in the living room .
She then looked towards the study room .
Yeah, the lights were on . Yin Shaojie should be in there .
Thus, she slipped out quickly and ran into the bathroom to shower .
However, afraid that Yin Shaojie would take this opportunity to open the bedroom door, she didn't dare to take too long . She would have to dash back into the bedroom to sleep .
After her shower, she ran back to the bedroom and slammed the door shut .
The living room looked its usual state as though nothing had happened .
However, the door to the study opened .
Yin Shaojie emerged, carrying his iPad . He glanced at the door to the bedroom and smiled, shaking his head .
He then walked over to the sofa and laid down .
Outside the window, a few streaks of lightning suddenly flashed past . Gradually, rain started to pour .
Clad in her pajamas, Mu Xiaoxiao sat with her legs up on the bed in the room . She stared blankly at the weather outside the window as it changed from a little drizzle into a downpour .
The torrent of rain seemed to be cleansing the entire world .
