Falling Asleep in the Bathtub

Ji Minze saw Ji En standing by the swimming pool first. He stopped his movements and called out to Ji En loudly.

"Daddy!"

Ji Aier also stopped and turned around to look at Ji En.

"You're back!"

Ji En nodded and then said to Ji Minze, "Minze, Daddy will swim with you another day. Your mommy must be tired just coming back."

"Oh right! I forgot that Mommy is very tired after the business trip," Ji Minze said apologetically, then turned around and swam towards the edge of the swimming pool and climbed out.

Ji En reached out and pulled Ji Aier up.

"Thank you," Ji Aier said, then wrapped a bath towel around herself and walked back to the main building with her son.

After sending her son back to his bedroom, Ji Aier also returned to her own bedroom.

When she walked into the bathroom, she felt as if her bones were about to fall apart. Coupled with the excessive excitement just now, her head was also dizzy now.

After filling the bathtub with water, she soaked herself in the jacuzzi. She felt so comfortable that she unconsciously fell asleep.

Ji En waited in Ji Aier's bedroom for a long time but didn't see Ji Aier come out of the bathroom. When he opened the glass door of the bathroom, he saw Ji Aier, who had fallen asleep, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

She always seemed to be short of sleep nowadays. So as long as there was a comfortable place, she would unconsciously fall asleep.

He gently bathed her. In her dream, Ji Aier dreamt of the scene of taking a bath in the orphanage when she was a child. Everyone played and washed at the same time, and they were always not clean. So the nuns often had to scrub them again before they could put on clean clothes.

Ji Aier wanted to shake the clothes on her body, but she immediately felt a spinning sensation because her head hit the edge of the bathtub.

"Ai'er, wake up. What's wrong?" Ji En, who was bathing Ji Aier, didn't know why Ji Aier suddenly kicked and then hit her head against the bathtub wall, which gave him a fright.

"It hurts so much!" Ji Aier opened her sleepy eyes, covered her head, and said. What made her even more awake immediately was that she found herself in the bathtub at the moment, and the person bathing her was Ji En. "Why am I here?"

"You should ask yourself that, not me! Hurry up and rinse off. If you soak any longer, you'll turn into pickled vegetables," Ji En said to her, then turned around and left the bathroom. He knew that if he didn't leave, she would definitely choose to stay in the bathtub again. Although their child was almost 10 years old, Ji Aier was still not used to being so intimate.

She actually fell asleep again! Ji Aier really couldn't accept it. Nowadays, wherever she was, as long as she didn't think about things or do anything, she could fall asleep in less than ten minutes.

Was it that her menopause came early, or was it that she had early-onset Alzheimer's disease? Ji Aier thought while taking a shower.

When she walked out of the bathroom, she saw Ji En sitting on the sofa waiting for her.

"Do you need something from me?" Ji Aier asked while drying her hair. She seemed to have gotten used to regarding herself as single. So when Ji En appeared in her room, her first reaction was that he had something to ask her.

Do I have to have something to ask you? This isn't the company! Ji En felt that it was a bit hard to accept that the first sentence between husband and wife was this.

"No, it's just that usually at this time, you're either socializing or in the study," Ji Aier told the truth. Although they lived in the same place and their bedrooms were just next to each other, the time they spent simply getting along and communicating was very limited.
