Sweet Rustic Love: Four Brothers’ Wife - Chapter 708

Chapter 708: Yang, What Time Is It Now?

The inside of the room was not very bright. She could see only blurry lines.

She snapped her eyes half-open and amid the confusion, she found that Yang, who should have been a few meters away, was sound asleep wrapped around her.

She moved her body slightly, wanting to get away from the heat, but he only held her more tightly.

So, Liu Duo could only try to push his body with all her might. “Yang, move over. It’s getting pretty hot.”

The light sleeper awoke at the sound. “Little Duo, you awake?”

He nudged about what little space he had been occupying.

His movements only cleared up her fuzzy mind, as she thought, Yang, I said move away, not move your body!

So she pushed him again to widen the gap. “Yes, I want some water.”

She sat up, feeling the sweat on her forehead.

Ye Yang heard her and sat up too. He fumbled out of bed and found the oil lamp where he last left it. He lit it and got her some water in a bowl.

The room suddenly brightened. Liu Duo had to rub her eyes to adjust her vision.

Ye Yang came to her side of the bed and passed the water to her.

Liu Duo accepted and consumed it in one mouthful. Her empty hand wiped away the sweat on her forehead. “Yang, what time is it now?”

She could not fall back to sleep after waking up. She guessed it had to be about three or four in the wee hours of the morning.

“It’s about dawn,” he said, taking back the bowl. “Want more?”

Liu Duo shook her head. “No.”

Then she lay back down on the bed, resting her head on her elbow as she glanced at him. “Yang, the bed’s so wide now, why do you still squeeze with me when we sleep?”

Ye Yang had not blown out the oil lamp. He returned to the edge of the bed and just looked at her silently.

Liu Duo had made it very clear before bedtime that she forbade him from hugging her as a form of punishment. He knew better than to make her angry.

Furthermore, he was very quiet in bed. He was not the type to move about.

He lay on the bed again, placing his arms on his belly as he embraced the peace.

Liu Duo kicked his foot lightly when she realized she was being ignored. “Yang, I’m asking you a question, so please speak up. I woke up because you were attached to me. The heat was unbearable.”

She was slightly blaming him. Ye Yang glanced sideways and grabbed hold of the foot that had kicked him. “Little Duo, were you lying here when you fell asleep?”

In other words, you were lying at the other end before we slept. I haven’t moved. You moved over and attached yourself to me. That’s how I ended up hugging you.

Er…

Liu Duo looked at the man just inches in front of her, then she looked back at the wide-open space on her end, and thought, so it was I who did that?

She thought about how she had gotten used to sleeping with them by her side. It was not impossible that she might have subconsciously sought him out on her own while she was sleeping.

Out of cards, Liu Duo coughed softly before changing the topic. “Let’s just sleep, it’s not bright yet.”

She grabbed her foot back, turned over with her back facing Ye Yang and scooted to the other side of the bed.

Ye Yang watched her move away. He inched closer and pulled her back, stopping her from widening the distance. “Stay close to me if you want to.”

Liu Duo’s jaw twitched, her back still facing him. I’m feeling hot right now! I said the heat woke me up yet you still want physical contact? Are you crazy, Yang?

“Yang, but I’m still feeling hot.” Liu Duo pushed away the arms already looped around her waist.
