Don’t Wake Him up
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When dawn broke, Lin Gantang was the first to wake. The sunlight shone in from outside. Afraid that the sunlight would pierce recuperating Wen Yanqing’s eyes, Lin Gantang pulled the curtains shut tightly.
She looked at Wen Yanqing, who was still sleeping soundly beside her, and smiled lightly. She gently kissed his forehead and got off the bed quietly.
When Ximi saw her get up, it walked over and said, “Meow.”
“Shh, don’t disturb him.”
Lin Gantang squatted down and stroked it a few times before going to wash up.
When she came out and opened the door, there was a maid standing outside. When she saw her, she asked respectfully, “Miss Lin, you’re awake? The kitchen has prepared breakfast for you. Do you need me to bring it up?”
“No need, I will eat with Yanqing later.” Lin Gantang was not used to them guarding the door. She said, “You don’t have to wait here in the future. I’ll go down myself when I’m hungry. No need to trouble you.”
The maid knew that Lin Gantang was Wen Yanqing’s sweetheart and did not dare to slight her. Naturally, she had to listen to her.
In their eyes, Lin Gantang would become the Wen family’s Madam sooner or later. How could they be careless?
Lin Gantang carried Ximi downstairs.
The sun gradually rose, and the sunlight shone on the tightly drawn curtains, leaving only a small amount of soft light.
Wen Yanqing opened his eyes, but his vision was still blurry.
He reached out and touched the pillow. It was cold and there was no one around. He listened carefully but did not notice anything. He couldn’t see anything related to Lin Gantang. The quiet morning suddenly made him panic.
There was no sound of her voice, no figure of hers, only him alone. He could no longer distinguish between reality and the dream he had before he woke up.
And his eyes could not help him confirm her existence. The days that had once made him sink into unreal happiness seemed to have become an illusion. His heart was in chaos and then fear.
“Tangtang? Tangtang!” Wen Yanqing stood up anxiously.
When he didn’t hear any response, he hurriedly ran in the direction of the door. The blurry light in his eyes almost made him lose his balance.
Lin Gantang, who was downstairs, immediately went up when she heard the shout. When she saw Wen Yanqing’s flustered expression, she quickly went up to hold his hand. “Yanqing?”
Wen Yanqing held her hand in his and calmed down. “Tangtang…”
“I’m here. I went downstairs to help Ximi change its dressing. I didn’t expect you to wake up so soon. Why aren’t you wearing shoes?” Lin Gantang looked down at his feet.
She wanted to get his shoes, but Wen Yanqing held her very tightly. Lin Gantang saw a thin layer of sweat on his forehead and reached out to wipe it. “Were you dreaming just now?”
He lowered his eyes. Lin Gantang guessed, “So flustered. Did you dream that I left?”
“Not that you left, but I was alone from the beginning to the end,” he said hoarsely.
Lin Gantang’s heart suddenly ached.
It was his years of being careful with this relationship that had left him feeling uneasy and worried about his gains and losses.
“I’m here. I’ll always be here from now on. Shall we go wash our faces?” Lin Gantang asked as she smoothed his messy hair. “It was just a dream.”
Lin Gantang pulled him toward the sink and squeezed out some toothpaste before handing it to him.
Wen Yanqing brushed his teeth and touched the stubble on his chin, slowly searching for his shaving foam.
“I’ll help you.” Lin Gantang picked up the razor.
“I’ll do it myself.”
Lin Gantang didn’t agree. She straightened his face and helped him shave slowly and seriously. She told him gently and firmly, “I help you get dressed, take food for you, bring you for walks, and accompany you to work. From now on, every little matter in your life will have my shadow. Will you not feel like you’re alone like this?”
Sooner or later, his uneasiness would disappear, and the dream he had would be a beautiful dream of them being together..
