The two of them hardly slept all night.
Everything that needed to be done was actually finished by three a.m., and from that point on, they cuddled together under the blankets, mostly silent and just feeling each other's bodies, occasionally chatting about a topic that came to mind.
Su Qing fell asleep for a while in the middle, but woke up not half an hour later, wearing a worried expression that Gu Ran might have disappeared.
Seeing that Gu Ran was still there, she yet asked, "Why haven't you gone back yet?"
"I didn't want to wake you up," Gu Ran said with a laugh.
"Laughing so slyly, did you do something bad while I was asleep?"
"Would I dare without your permission?"
"Sometimes, for some things, you don't need my permission."
"Oh," Gu Ran placed his hand on her buttocks.
Su Qing laughed and hit him playfully, and Gu Ran laughed and hugged her tightly, their bodies pressed closely together, the warmth of the flesh intoxicating their hearts.
