Chapter 568 You Sleep Soundly
Chapter 568 You Sleep Soundly
When Jiang Ning slowly opened her eyes from her nap, her gaze naturally fell on the side.
At that moment, she saw Gu Yuan
——He was sitting quietly on the sofa not far away, concentrating on the book or tablet in his hand.
His figure looked particularly peaceful and serene in the soft sunlight coming in through the window.
Gu Yuan may have heard the subtle sound of Jiang Ning getting up. He raised his head, moved his eyes away from the screen and turned to her.
The two people's eyes met in the air, as if countless unspoken words were conveyed in this moment.
A gentle smile appeared on Gu Yuan's lips, which was a welcome to Jiang Ning for waking up and an affirmation of her existence.
"you're awake."
Gu Yuan's voice was low and calm, with a hint of concern and tenderness.
He didn't say much, but every word revealed his concern for Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning nodded and smiled back, her voice still a little hoarse from just waking up:
"Well, how long have I slept?"
Gu Yuan looked at his watch and replied:
"Almost an hour. How do you feel? Did you have a good rest?"
Jiang Ning stretched out, feeling the relaxation of his body, and then said:
"I'm fine. I feel more energetic. Thank you for being here with me."
Gu Yuan looked at Jiang Ning who had just woken up from a nap, and a mischievous smile flashed in his eyes.
He gently brought up the topic, with a hint of teasing in his tone:
"It seems like you are really tired. You are even snoring."
After saying that, he deliberately imitated the snoring sound, trying to make Jiang Ning laugh.
After hearing what Gu Yuan said, Jiang Ning's cheeks involuntarily flushed.
She didn't expect to make such a sound in her sleep, which made her feel a little embarrassed.
She lowered her head, her fingers unconsciously twisting the ends of her hair, and whispered in defense:
"I...I didn't know I would be like this. Maybe I'm just too tired."
Gu Yuan saw Jiang Ning's reaction and knew that she was a little embarrassed, so he immediately put away his joking attitude and said in a gentler tone:
"It's okay. Everyone makes some noises when they sleep. It's normal. Besides, your snoring is actually very cute and not disturbing at all."
When Jiang Ning heard Gu Yuan say this, a warm feeling surged in her heart. She looked up at Gu Yuan and found that he was looking at her with an encouraging and supportive look.
The embarrassment in her heart gradually dissipated, replaced by gratitude for Gu Yuan's understanding.
She smiled slightly and said shyly:
"Thank you, Gu Yuan. I know you said that to make me relax. I will pay attention next time and try not to disturb you."
Gu Yuan shook his head and said seriously:
"It's really okay. I like you like this, real and not pretentious. We are all ordinary people, sometimes there are some small shortcomings, but this is part of life, isn't it?"
Jiang Ning nodded, and his gratitude towards Gu Yuan deepened.
She knows how precious it is to have a friend who can understand and tolerate her when she is not perfect.
The relationship between the two became closer and more sincere because of this little episode.
Gu Yuan put down the equipment in his hand, stood up, walked to Jiang Ning, patted her shoulder gently, and said:
"You're welcome. I just needed some quiet time. Now that you're awake, we can do something together. Would you like some tea or coffee?"
Jiang Ning nodded and accepted his proposal:
"I want a cup of green tea to perk me up."
"it is good."
Gu Yuan's voice was so soft, almost inaudible.
The two walked to the kitchen together and began their afternoon together.
In this ordinary yet special moment, the tacit understanding and intimacy between them,
There is no need for much words, as it has been fully reflected in each other's actions and eyes.
