Accidental Love

The reason why he went with the flow, as it turned out, was because he had been waiting for this moment.

At this moment, Zheng Shuyi felt like this was the most regretful thing she did in her life.

The fingers wrapped in the thick gauze felt numb for a while, and she even felt like she could dig a hole and bury herself.

"The doctor said," Zheng Shuyi still didn't turn around, but then there wasn't a trace of something called "confidence" in her voice, "No."

"Really?"

Shi Yan was already standing up. His arms were crossed in front of his chest and he was looking at her. She could tell that there was a smile on his face just by his merry tone, "You need someone to feed you food, serve you water, and can't even tie your hair. How are you going to take a bath?"

Zheng Shuyi didn't know whether Shi Yan was being serious or just teasing her, so she tried to reason with him seriously.

"They'll be fine if they don't touch water, I, I took a bath already this morning, so this time I'll just go with whatever."

"Whatever?"

Shi Yan walked over, "Does that mean you don't need to take off your shirt or does that mean you don't need to apply body wash?"

Zheng Shuyi: "…"

"To take off" and "to apply" didn't sound like they weren't just plain verbs when coming out of his mouth.

"I already said no!"

Zheng Shuyi's embarrassment was turning into anger, but Shi Yan did not show any intention of backing down, "Then you don't seem to like to be clean.  ”

"Yes yes yes, I don't like being clean."

Zheng Shuyi then immediately ran for it. Although she didn't turn around to look, she could feel that Shi Yan was watching her with a sense of enjoyment, so she ran even faster.

A few steps later, Shi Yan called once more.

"Shuyi, are you sure you don't need help? If you call for help later I won't have the patience anymore, don't regret it."

"I already said, I don't need help!"

Zheng Shuyi's mind was already burning from the anger. With the last slim of reason in her head, she said firmly, "If I regret, then I'll be your son!"

She even said something like this.

Shi Yan looked at her fleeing back with a smile and returned to the living room.

Half an hour later.

Shi Yan turned off his laptop and was about to go back to his room to get his pajamas and get ready for bed.

The bathroom was beside his room.

As he passed the bathroom, the lock clicked quietly.

He heard footsteps and turned to look at the bathroom door.

A few seconds later, the door opened slightly and half a head poked out.

"Dad…"

Shi Yan: "…"

——

Zheng Shuyi could indeed take a bath by herself.

She planned to go to the hairdresser to wash her hair tomorrow anyway, so now, all she had to do was spend a little effort to tie her hair into a bun, then fill up the bathtub with water, then walk in with one arm lifted.

Everything went perfectly.

Even when she was washing her underwear with only one hand, she felt like her left hand had unlimited potential to be discovered.

But this thought disappeared after two minutes.

The pajamas Zheng Shuyi brought were light and silky and could show the outline of her body clearly. After wearing it, she looked at herself in the mirror and then looked at the ups and downs of her chest.

Without the covering of underwear, the shape was a little bit too extreme.

In the bathroom filled with hot steam, her cheeks started to grow hot too.

When she remembered that Shi Yan was outside, she even felt like wearing this was no different than being naked.

But she couldn't button her underwear with just one hand.

When packing her luggage, she just randomly placed some, and she didn't remember to consider this at all.

Therefore, after several minutes of struggling, she opened the door slightly to call Shi Yan for help.

Outside the door.

Shi Yan looked at the half of the face that was bright red.

"What? Need help?"

Zheng Shuyi's fingers grabbed the door tightly and her voice was as quiet as a fly.

"Help me button my underwear."

"Mm?"

Shi Yan really didn't catch that.

He squinted his eyes as he got closer, "What was that?"

But Zheng Shuyi didn't know whether he was doing this on purpose or not.

But the struggle just now gave her enough reason to keep going.

What's wrong about buttoning an underwear

Isn't it just buttoning underwear?

――It's not as if I'm asking him to do a backhand dunk from standing or anything.

Therefore, Zheng Shuyi turned around, facing Shi Yan with her back, and ordered him, "Button my underwear, quick, I'm sleepy!"

Shi Yan looked at her for a bit before walking over.

During the few seconds that he was standing still, Zheng Shuyi's heart was drumming.

When the shirt was gently lifted up from behind, her limbs tightened up. She looked at the wall in front and didn't even dare to blink.

Shi Yan had his head down and his breathing was on her neck.

The movement of his hands was meticulous, but when seeing the skin of her back and waist, his hands would still touch her back inadvertently.

With every touch, Zheng Shuyi grew more nervous.

However, Shi Yan remained silent throughout the whole process. After finishing, he lowered his hand and even organized her pajamas for her.

"Done."

Zheng Shuyi blinked in disbelief.

He was actually acting like a human now.

During the seconds that she blanked out, she quietly coughed twice.

What the heck.

Am I getting PTSD from his behavior in the past few days?

This is the real him!

"What is it?"

Shi Yan's voice sounded behind her, "Anything else I need to do?"

"No, thank you."

Zheng Shuyi grabbed her dirty clothes and dashed into the bedroom.

Shi Yan turned his head and his eyes followed her footsteps. When he saw her sitting on the bed and taking out various small cans and bottles, he smiled.

——

After completing a complete set of skincare procedures, Zheng Shuyi went to bed.

There was a faint and familiar scent on the bed that belonged to Shi Yan.

Zheng Shuyi pulled up the quilt and covered half of her face. Listening to the sound of shower water running in the bathroom, she felt the air getting thinner and thinner.

She didn't mind sharing a bed with Shi Yan, nor was she afraid.

Since she agreed to come, she has already been mentally prepared.

But now that it was night, the nervousness still swallowed up her mental preparation by a little bit.

Maybe it was because of the nervousness, her senses have become more sensitive and the hurting from the fingers also returned.

Zheng Shuyi took a deep breath, turned her back to the bathroom, and slowly closed her eyes.

Not too long after, the water sound in the bathroom stopped.

A few minutes later, there came the sound of the door being opened.

The room was carpeted so no footsteps could be heard, but Zheng Shuyi was still able to feel Shi Yan coming.

Getting closer and closer until the other side of the bed sank.

Zheng Shuyi closed her eyes tightly as her eyelashes quivered.

Suddenly, she felt Shi Yan's breath approaching, landing right beside her ear.

He propped up his upper body and just looked down at Zheng Shuyi.

After a long time, he suddenly said, "Are you nervous or are your fingers hurting?"

Zheng Shuyi: "…"

How accurate again…

She was both nervous and hurting.

"It hurts," Zheng Shuyi frowned, opening her eyes slowly, but her back turned towards Shi Yan.

"The fingers to my heart, the pain is unbearable."

Shi Yan looked at her hand outside of the quilt. A layer of light yellow substance was oozing out of the gauze along with a faint smell of medicine.

"Do you need painkillers?"

"I already had some," said Zheng Shuyi, "But they still hurt."

"Mm," Shi Yan reached out his hand and brushed the hair on her cheek, "Then try to fall asleep, it won't hurt after you're asleep."

After speaking, he laid down, passed his arms from behind her waist, and gently held her left hand in front of her lower abdomen.

A few minutes later, the person beside her remained silent, and Zheng Shuyi finally felt relaxed and fell asleep with the sound of her own heartbeat.

The Spring moonlight showed gently in the night sky.

The breathing of the person behind her was calm and long, and his hand was warm. Before she knew it, the shape of her mouth was already the shape of the crescent moon outside.

However, the silence lasted only less than an hour.

When the sleepiness hit, Zheng Shuyi was half awake and half asleep. Her body started to seek a more comfortable and warm place.

Therefore…

Shi Yan, who was also half asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.

His eyes could only see the pitch blackness in front, but he felt that Zheng Shuyi turned around, had one hand on his waist, and was slowly getting into his arms little by little. 

But it seemed that she wasn't able to find the most comfortable position, she twisted a few times, rubbed her chin against Shi Yan's chest, and her whole body was almost sticking to him.

“……”

In the darkness, Shi Yan frowned and the rhythm of his breathing was suddenly disrupted.

Yet the person in his arms was still adjusting her posture restlessly.

In the silent night, his eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, and he was able to see things clearly now. At the same time, the senses of his body were magnified.

Shi yan suddenly supported her shoulders, turned over, and put his arms on her two sides.

After looking for a moment, he leaned down without hesitation.

However, when their breathing became entangled, he suddenly heard a hiss of pain from Zheng Shuyi.

He paused and felt like his arm was on his finger and almost reflexively raised his hand.

A motionless second later, he exhaled and slowly laid back down on the side.

He adjusted his breathing for a bit on the bed.

After a long time, the pain in her hand didn't stop.

Zheng Shuyi half-opened her eyes in a daze. She saw the faint light coming from the bathroom and the sound of water running.

She tucked the quilt, closed her eyes again, and fell back asleep.

——

When she woke up in the morning, she subconsciously sat up on the bed. Due to the force her hands used, she screeched in pain.

However, the room was empty, there was only her own echo.

Zheng Shuyi's consciousness hadn't fully returned yet. She looked around for a long time before slowly realizing this was Shi Yan's house.

But Shi Yan wasn't here.

Zheng Shuyi immediately got out of bed and glanced at the bathroom, no one.

Then, she walked outside and called Shi Yan's name, but still, no one answered her.

At this moment, she looked up and saw that the clock on the cabinet was already showing 9 o'clock.

No wonder Shi Yan isn't here, he should be sitting in the office by now.

Thinking of this, Zheng Shuyi suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. She walked back to the bedroom with big steps.

After laying back on the bed and picking up her phone, she found that Shi Yan didn't even leave her a message.

Zheng Shuyi sneered as she crossed her legs and called.

After a few rings, the other side picked up.

"Awake?"

"Yeah," replied Zheng Shuyi, "When did you leave?"

"Eight."

Zheng Shuyi opened the curtains, allowing the sunshine to pour in.

"Oh, that's pretty early."

"By the way, I suddenly remembered, did you wake up to take a shower in the middle of the night?"

Because Shi Yan's tone was quite relaxed, Zheng Shuyi thought that he wasn't busy right now so she couldn't help but want to say a few more words to him.

However, the fact was that Chen Sheng and three secretaries were standing in front of him at the moment.

"Is that true?" Without hearing a reply from Shi Yan, Zheng Shuyi asked again, "Or am I dreaming?"

"You were dreaming."

"Oh…" Zheng Shuyi murmured, "Right, which normal person would wake up in the middle of the night to shower."

“……”

"Okay, I'll sleep for a little longer, you should get back to work now."

After hanging up, Zheng Shuyi stared at the ceiling and started to laugh for no reason.

But as she laughed, she suddenly stopped.

She turned her head to the side and saw her reflection in the floor-to-ceiling windows.

She was above board already sleeping on his bed.

Yet… let alone anything else, she didn't even receive a kiss.

Zheng Shuyi slowly sat up and touched her face.

At this time, Bi Ruoshan happened to send her a message.

Bi Ruoshan: God damn, I finally finished the business with Situ Yi, my flight is tomorrow.

Zheng Shuyi: Oh.

Bi Ruoshan: Are you busy? If not, can I come to your house tonight? We can make some hot pot.

Zheng Shuyi: I'm not busy, but I can't return to my house.

Bi Ruoshan: ?

Zheng Shuyi: I'm living at Shi Yan's house right now.

Bi Ruoshan: … Tsk, okay, but that's pretty quick for you two to be living together already. Are you planning to take your annual leave?

Zheng Shuyi was silent for a while, then typed: Let me tell you, we slept on the same bed last night.

Bi Ruoshan: That's enough, I don't want to listen to these. If you keep going I'll have to report you.

Zheng Shuyi: Then nothing happened.

This time it was Bi Ruoshan's turn to be silent.

After a long time.

Bi Ruoshan: Option A, you're too unattractive. Option B, Shi Yan's not good enough.

Zheng Shuyi: I don't think it's possible that I'm not attractive enough, let's eliminate this impossible answer.

Bi Ruoshan: So, the answer is B.
