Billionaire's First Doting Marriage-Chapter 2235 - 376: Awkwardness

Lu Yinxing called out to him tentatively twice more.

She thought Xia Ye was awake.

But listening to the even breathing beside her, Lu Yinxing knew that Xia Ye was currently in a dream.

Lu Yinxing felt helpless.

Her whole body was pressed down firmly, with no way to move.

Plus, it was already very late.

Lu Yinxing had been practicing dance all night and was extremely exhausted.

At this point, she really didn’t even have the energy to move a finger.

So eventually, Lu Yinxing simply gave up struggling.

She fell asleep in a daze.

After Lu Yinxing fell asleep, the person beside her suddenly opened his eyes slowly.

Under the dim spotlight, the boy’s eyes were like the ocean beneath the night sky, deep as water.

There wasn’t the slightest sign of sleepiness.

In fact, he had been awake since Lu Yinxing came in.

Or rather, he hadn’t slept at all.

Previously, when Lu Yinxing stayed here for a while.

During that time, Xia Ye slept very well.

But for some reason.

Ever since Lu Yinxing returned to school, his sleep wasn’t as good.

He had hypersomnia since childhood.

Never once suffered from insomnia; he could never get enough sleep.

But now it seemed different from before.

Clearly very tired, yet unable to sleep.

His mind was hazy, running wearily, unable to stop.

But now, looking at the small figure beside him.

Looking at the clean little face so close at hand.

Her flushed cheeks, long eyelashes, and lips glistening like jelly.

Xia Ye only felt as if something had filled his heart.

He knew this wasn’t right, not accepted by contemporary norms.

But he found it hard to control his heart.

Lu Yinxing was the only thing out of control in his life.

When did he start losing control, Xia Ye couldn’t quite remember.

Just this once, for the last time.

Xia Ye slowly stretched out his arm and gently embraced Lu Yinxing.

Lu Yinxing, in her deep sleep, seemed to hum softly.

Then she found a comfortable position on her own and fell asleep deeply again.

When she nestled into his embrace.

For a moment, Xia Ye felt like he had suddenly returned to his childhood.

When they were five, at Peace Hall.

Back then, she ran all over the hills.

Xiao Bai then chased after her that way.

Her laughter was like the breeze in the fields, so carefree.

He sat on the haystack, lying down, looking at the blue sky and white clouds.

Those memories have always been frozen in his life.

They did not blur with time, instead becoming clearer and clearer.

He was born different.

Had known he was an outlier since he was young.

Also knew his mind wasn’t like that of normal children.

But that year, he seemed to finally feel a freedom he had never had.

Lu Yinxing was a gift appearing in his life.

He has always cherished it.

But now, they had grown up.

Can no longer act recklessly as if nothing mattered.

Something had quietly changed in their lives.

Xia Ye felt this change.

But for the first time, he stubbornly wanted to maintain the original state.

...

The next day

When Lu Yinxing woke up.

She found herself clinging to Xia Ye like an octopus.

How did it come to this!!

Lu Yinxing almost forgot.

Her sleeping habits were very bad.

When they were little and shared a room.

This kind of thing happened almost daily.

But now, it always felt a bit awkward to be so close to each other.
