Chapter 31 Smaller

The towel was handed to Huo Yan, and the man wrapped the hot water bag with the towel. He tested the temperature with the back of his hand before lifting the quilt and preparing to put it in.

As soon as he pinched a corner of the quilt, he frowned and looked at Leng Rui behind him: "What are you still doing here?"

Leng Rui felt Huo Yan's suspicion, his face tensed, and he reluctantly left the bedroom.

Huo Yan put the hot water bag wrapped in the towel at Gu Weimian's feet, keeping a distance to ensure that her feet could get the warmth from the hot water bag, and to ensure that she would not be burned by the hot water bag.

When he lifted a corner of the quilt, he happened to see Gu Weimian sleeping restlessly and stretched out her feet again.

Gu Weimian is 166 cm tall, which is not short among girls, but it seems that everything is smaller than others.

I thought she was just thinner, but it turns out that her feet are also very, very small.

It seems that her feet can just fit in his palm and be controlled by him.

Not only small, but also white.

There were no scars or calluses on his feet, and it was obvious that he had never suffered any hardship since childhood.

Such a pair of little feet with more artistic beauty than practical effect made Huo Yan doubt whether they could really support the weight of a person?

"Hmm..." Gu Weimian seemed to feel a little cold and curled up his feet.

Like a frightened kitten, he hid in his nest.

Huo Yan was still holding a corner of the quilt with one hand, and he didn't know why he stood there motionless and was stunned.

He was obviously a person with clear goals and few distractions. He didn't know how these messy thoughts just ran into his mind.

But he always felt that these thoughts were a little... embarrassing.

Just when Huo Yan fell into self-doubt for a few seconds, Gu Weimian made a new move. She turned over and clamped the quilt, which happened to press Huo Yan's hand.

Huo Yan seemed to have touched a ball of fire and was about to pull his hand out immediately.

But as soon as he moved his hand, he saw Gu Weimian's eyelashes tremble and she opened her eyes.

Their eyes met, so close.

Huo Yan: "..."

His face was frozen.

If you ask what he did, it was just to fill a hot water bottle for Gu Weimian...

But would Gu Weimian believe it?

Thinking of the countless disgusted looks from Gu Weimian and the countless unhappy partings, his heart sank.

No matter what, Gu Weimian would never listen to his explanation.

The final result was that the eldest lady got angry and walked away, which he had already gotten used to.

"You... you're back?"

Gu Weimian was a little sleepy, rubbed his eyes, and his voice was a little hoarse from just waking up.

Huo Yan looked at Gu Weimian in surprise.

This tone... there was no fear, disgust or avoidance at all, but it was like a sleeping wife being woken up by her husband who came back from overtime in the middle of the night, and a casual greeting.

To say wife... is not that intimate.

More like an old friend, but friend? Or old friend?

Huo Yan's heartbeat was a little fast.

Gu Weimian felt something under her body and lowered her head in confusion.

The lines on the man's handsome face were tense.

"Ah... sorry." Gu Weimian moved her body away.

When she raised her eyes, she saw Huo Yan's blank expression and didn't know how to react.

Huo Yan was stunned there. Gu Weimian...didn't get angry?

Didn't she hate touching her the most, just like the kiss in the afternoon...

Gu Weimian didn't know what Huo Yan was thinking. She was still in a daze. She realized that she was lying on the bed in the room. She scratched her hair: "Hey, why am I on the bed?"

She clearly remembered that she was waiting on the sofa just now. Could it be because she was too sleepy that she ran directly to Huo Yan's bed and fell asleep?

Gu Weimian concentrated on thinking.

"Why don't you come down after you wake up?" The man's voice was cold, interrupting Gu Weimian's thoughts.

Gu Weimian was startled, uttered a muffled "Oh", lifted the quilt, and silently got out of bed.

"...I didn't want to sleep in your bed."

Perhaps she felt it was too cold at the time...

Huo Yan was silent, and his silence made him look even colder and harder.
