Awakened Multi-talented Goddess Is Doted Novel - Chapter 74

Chapter 74: His Acting

Li Hanchen’s hand froze in mid-air as he held the corner of the blanket.

He watched as Mu Sheng rolled over towards him until she stopped when her forehead touched his shoulder before she finally lay quietly.

Mu Sheng’s face looked as languid as a kitten having an afternoon nap while she was asleep. Even though her hand was lightly placed around Li Hanchen’s waist, it made him feel as though he was going breathless. He automatically swallowed.

After quietly watching Mu Sheng for a while, Li Hanchen finally put down his hand and pressed the blanket down on Mu Sheng’s shoulder. He let go of her wrist and moved back slightly to keep some distance from her so that she would stop leaning against him.

Li Hanchen finally closed his eyes and suppressed his restlessness. He even breathed more gently out of fear he might smell Mu Sheng’s faint scent in the air.

The room finally felt peaceful again. It felt as though ripples had undulated across a pool of water before dissipating.

However, Li Hanchen abruptly opened his eyes 30 minutes later with a look of helplessness.

People instinctively went towards sources of warmth when they were asleep, so Mu Sheng was no different.

After sleeping quietly for a while, she moved towards Li Hanchen once more. She even mistook him for the plush toy on her bed and hugged him tightly.

Mu Sheng was holding Li Hanchen by the waist with her head on his shoulder under the blanket, and they were incredibly close to each other.

Since Li Hanchen had a cold constitution, he never felt so warm in his life. The places where Mu Sheng was leaning against felt as though they were on fire as the heat passed through his skin into his bloodstream.

This time, he could feel himself burning inside. However, it was different from his usual pain.

Thanks to Mu Sheng’s treatment, Li Hanchen had been able to sleep well every night. He was no longer kept sleepless from the agony.

This time, thanks to her as well, he had the first-hand experience of what it meant to be sleepless all night.

The moon gradually disappeared from the sky as the sunlight penetrated through the huge French windows and lit up the entire room.

After sleeping well all night, Mu Sheng automatically woke up as usual. The moment she woke up, she sensed something amiss.

Mu Sheng opened her eyes and was instantly startled at the sight before her. Li Hanchen was sleeping with his eyes closed right in front of her. His well-chiseled profile glowed in the morning sun.

Li Hanchen moved slightly when he realized Mu Sheng was awake.

Mu Sheng lowered her head to see herself hugging Li Hanchen by the waist tightly. It was clear that she had taken the initiative to throw herself at him.

Mu Sheng was dumbfounded. She carefully removed her hands before lifting the blanket to get off the bed.

Li Hanchen suddenly flipped over and pulled her into his arms.

Before she knew it, she could smell Li Hanchen’s scent. Mu Sheng’s ears automatically felt warm. She turned her head and saw Li Hanchen sleeping soundly.

Even though Mu Sheng was not the shy type, she could not help feeling awkward. She failed to notice the smile on Li Hanchen’s face behind her amid her uneasiness.

Since Mu Sheng had done nothing wrong, her awkwardness quickly disappeared. She pulled Li Hanchen’s arm aside and pushed him. “Wake up.”

Li Hanchen finally opened his eyes. He looked at Mu Sheng before glancing at himself and frowning. “What are you doing here?”

Mu Sheng said candidly, “You held my hand last night and refused to let go, so I had to borrow half your bed.”

“I see.” Li Hanchen gradually sat up. His sleeping robe was half-open and his chest could be vaguely seen as he looked at Mu Sheng deeply. “No wonder it felt much warmer last night.”
