Only in the early morning did Wei Zhenghai finally fall into an exhausted sleep.
Xiao Chu lay beside him, eyes wide open, carefully studying him.
In sleep, his handsome face looked somewhat childlike. He was a masterpiece created by heaven, with ink-dark eyebrows, eyelashes that would make women jealous, a square chin, and lips full and tempting to kiss…
She was grateful to have had him, but she knew that after tomorrow, all this would become “the past”.
The past would disappear like smoke, so she wanted to look at him again and again, carve his image into her heart, so that when she missed him later, she wouldn’t feel lonely.
”I love you,” she whispered softly, holding back tears. “I’ll love you wherever I am.”
She glanced at the clock, its hands urging her to quickly do something.
She carefully got up, but the mattress’s movement made him open his eyes, asking drowsily: “Where are you going? Xiao Chu?” Whew, so tired.
”You’ve exhausted me. I want to take a bath before sleeping,” she explained softly.
He immediately closed his weary eyes, sinking back into sleep.
Xiao Chu walked into the bathroom, turned on the faucet, filling the spacious double bathtub.
Then she put on her clothes and pushed open the door to leave.
The next day after work, Wei Zhenghai returned home with red roses.
Home. Standing at the entrance, he carefully savored this word.
Not long ago, this was just his “apartment”, but with Xiao Chu here, he felt a sense of belonging, so the “apartment” in his heart transformed into a “home”.
Thinking of Xiao Chu, he couldn’t help but smile proudly. Her passion last night surprised him, and this morning she woke him in a particularly special way. If she hadn’t insisted, he would have taken a day off to spend with her at home.
Perhaps he should do that tomorrow.
He liked her direct passion. Xiao Chu was never shy in this regard, never coy. Her unreserved response made his male ego soar to its highest point.
If she decided to drop out of school, they should have a sweet wedding. After all, most Open University classes are at home, and marriage might not affect her studies so much—
He happily entered the password, opened the central lock, and pushed open the door.
