Chapter 323: Chapter 323: You Sleep Like This for Now

After eating and drinking her fill, Luo Mengmeng started to feel drowsy, yawning one after another.

“Sleepy?” Gu Zhihan turned his head and glanced at her when he heard the noise.

“Mm-hmm!”

Luo Mengmeng rubbed her bleary eyes while nodding.

Gu Zhihan checked his watch, it was only ten o’clock–too early to return to the dormitory.

After pondering for a moment, he shifted closer to her, his long arm encircling her lower back and hugging her into his embrace, “Sleep like this for a while.”

Luo Mengmeng’s cheeks flushed as she whispered, looking around, “But what if someone sees us?”

If someone saw the two high school students hugging each other here, it would probably not give off a good impression.

“Even if they saw us, they wouldn’t be idle enough to tell our homeroom teacher, soldiers aren’t that gossipy…” Gu Zhihan said indifferently.

“That’s good.” Reassured by this, Luo Mengmeng comfortably buried her little head in his chest.

Soon, Gu Zhihan heard the soft and even breathing of the little girl in his arms.

She had fallen asleep.

“This is a pig.”

Gu Zhihan’s lips curled slightly as he muttered to himself, gazing at her delicate and fair face.

Eat and then sleep–wasn’t that just like a pig?

The look of adoration deepened on his handsome face.

Under the summer night sky, the boy sat on the steps with the girl half in his arms, while she sweetly dozed off, her head resting on his shoulder.

Of course, it would have been even more perfect without the annoyance of mosquitoes.

Strangely enough, the mosquitoes seemed reluctant to bite Gu Zhihan but were set on biting only Luo Mengmeng, especially her face.

Gu Zhihan frowned tightly, continually waving his hand to ward off the mosquitoes from the little girl.

When Mengmeng woke up, Gu Zhihan’s arm was covered in red welts from the mosquito bites.

“Why is your arm so red? Is it from mosquito bites?” Luo Mengmeng asked.

“It’s nothing.” Gu Zhihan seemed unconcerned as he stood up and checked his watch again, “It’s eleven o’clock, we can go back to the dormitory now…”

As he was about to say “goodnight” to her, Luo Mengmeng interrupted him, “Don’t leave just yet, stand here and wait for me!”

“Hm?” Gu Zhihan looked at her, puzzled.

Luo Mengmeng didn’t explain and ran into the dormitory, soon returning out of breath, clutching a tube of light pink ointment, “Remember to apply this to your arm, it’s very effective for mosquito bites.”

“I know.” Gu Zhihan nodded; the ointment was something he had bought for her before.

Seeing that he hadn’t reached out to take it, Luo Meng encouraged insistently, “If you know, then hurry up and take it.”

“I don’t need to apply it, it’s fine…”

“You must apply it!” This time, Luo Mengmeng stepped forward and firmly pushed the tube into his big hand.

Unable to refuse the gesture, Gu Zhihan accepted it and took the opportunity to ruffle her hair, “Mengmeng is so good, caring for her husband!”

“What husband… we’re not even married yet!” Luo Mengmeng, teased by his comment, blushed peach-pink and ran into the dormitory covering her face.

As she ran, she grumbled to herself: Gu Zhihan was shameless! Tsk!

Gu Zhihan silently watched her retreating back, “…”

Wasn’t she always calling him husband before? How come now that he was willing to be her husband, she turned shy?
