Intense Love - Chapter 92
Chapter 92 – Piggyback
Zhou Shiyun coughed, “No.”
“Why.”
Zhou Shiyun glanced at her and fell silent.
The beds were very small, just enough for them to sleep alone. If they had to share between the two of them, they would have to huddle together, very closely at that… He wasn’t sure he could sleep in peace with her beside him all night.
Zhang Chao’s eyes moved back and forth throughout their interaction. Just as he was about to say something, someone else beat him to it, “What about, you stay at my place?”
The woman hadn’t spoken since she brought Xiaoyuan in. She said, “I can put another bed in my room, i-is that okay?”
All three of them looked at her.
Zhang Chao said, “Good idea. Tingting lives alone, it’s convenient for the two girls to stay together.”
Su Jinbei smiled at the kind girl and then stared at Zhou Shiyun, muttering, “Someone doesn’t want me to stay in his room. I’ll remember this deed.”
Zhou Shiyun chuckled helplessly, “Her home is right next door, it’s very close.”
Su Jinbei harrumphed
“Is that alright with you?” Zhou Shiyun asked.
Su Jinbei hummed. “Then it’s settled, Tingting? Thank you.”
Tingting looked uncomfortable with her gratitude, “Er, you’re welcome.”
Zhou Shiyun told Tingting, “Then I’ll leave her in your care.”
“It’s nothing, Dr. Zhou.”
Her accomodation was decided. Tingting went back to organize her room and Zhou Shiyun took Su Jinbei back to the medical clinic for dinner.
“Hey, you’re really not going to let me sleep with you?” Su Jinbei stared at his back gloomily.
Zhou Shiyun turned around to look at her, “The bed is really small, you won’t fit.”
“Oh, so if the bed is big, would you agree to sleep with me?”
Zhou Shiyun, “…”
Su Jinbei glared at him when he didn’t answer, and walked forward angrily. It was already dark and Su Jinbei was wearing high heels again, so she tripped over a stone in her distracted state.
Fortunately, Zhou Shiyun responded quickly and quickly stretched out his hand to hold her, “Be careful.”
Su Jinbei looked down at her feet, “They’re not comfortable anymore after being soaked in mud for a long time.”
“Take them off.”
“Ah?”
Zhou Shiyun walked in front of her, “Take off your shoes, I will carry you back.” It was so dark out, he didn’t feel at ease letting her walk like this.
Su Jinbei’s lips widened into an unstoppable smile, but her tone was still very aggressive, “Don’t think I’ll forgive you for your sin of not sleeping with me just because you’re doing this.”
Sin… of not sleeping with her?
Zhou Shiyun smirked and changed the subject, “Hurry up, hold the flashlight.”
Su Jinbei humphed, pretending to be ‘reserved’ for a moment before finally taking off her high heels. With them dangling in her hand, she proceeded to lay on Zhou Shiyun’s back.
Once Zhou Shiyun made sure she was securely latched on, he stood up straight and walked forward steadily with her on his back.
It was a silent night, with no other noise than the calls of unknown small creatures nearby. Su Jinbei suddenly felt her whole body enveloped in warmth as she laid on his back. She even thought that she would be alright if they kept on walking like this forever.
“Zhou Shiyun.”
“Yeah.”
“Zhou Shiyun~”
“Yeah?”
“Zhou Shiyun, hey.”
“… What do you want to say.”
Su Jinbei buried her face in his shoulder and mumbled, “Nothing, it’s just really dark. I’m kind of scared.”
Zhou Shiyun was silent for a moment, finally replying, “Close your eyes, I can find my way there myself.”
Su Jinbei smiled softly and whispered, “Okay.”
