Chapter 270 The Truth
Shawn immediately raised his head and reached out to touch his beard.
And then he looked at Norah, "Did it hurt?"
As he spoke, his hand had already fallen on Norah's tender cheek, stroking it gently.
The pads of his fingers were so warm and powerful that Norah instantly felt they were like feathers, tickling her heart.
"Kinda," She answered truthfully.
"What about now? Does it still hurt?"
"Much better."
However, Shawn did not get up and was still pressing on her.
Norah's head was in a mess. At this moment, she didn't know what she was going to say.
Suddenly, Shawn supported her, stretched his arm forward a little further, and then pulled hard.
Suddenly, he took his pajamas and got up from Norah.
At the same time, he explained, "My pajamas are inside. I need to take them and put them on after taking a shower."
"Okay." Norah nodded, suddenly feeling very embarrassed.
It turned out that she had misunderstood.
Soon, the sound of rushing water came from the bathroom.
After a while, Shawn came out after taking a shower and wearing pajamas.
After taking two quilts out of the cabinet, he started to make a bed on the floor.
When Norah saw this, she immediately got up from the bed and said, "Let me help you."
"Okay."
They quickly made a bed on the floor together.
At this moment, Shawn put an arm around her, and the gesture was almost like he was holding her whole body in his arms.
His breath was even more pervasive, wrapping around her tightly.
Norah was about to speak, but the next moment, he took a pillow in his hand, placed it quickly on the quilt, and immediately distanced himself from her.
"Is there anything else I can help?"
"There's one more," he said.
"What ...?"
Before Norah finished speaking, suddenly, there was a burst of force on her wrist, and the next moment, she was pulled to his side by Shawn.
He reached out and held her in his arms.
A low voice whispered in her ears softly, "Check for me if there is still smell of smoke on my body."
After smelling, Norah shook her head and said, "It's much better. I can't tell if I don't smell carefully."
"Then I'm relieved."
Why were you relieved?
Norah was confused.
Shawn replied calmly, "I'm relieved that you won't hate the smell of me anymore."
Norah felt bad in her heart.
She really ddidn't like people smoking, nor did she like the smell of smoke.
However, what he didn't know was that she had never hated the smell of smoke on his body.
She even liked it.
She felt there was a huge difference between putting the exact same thing on him and on someone else.
But there was no need to tell him this.
The wall lamp was turned off, and both of them lay in their own beds.
The night was very quiet.
But in fact, neither of them fell asleep.
Ten minutes later, seeing that he was not asleep, Norah spoke softly, "Does what you told me about Professor Greer during the day still count?"
"Yes!"
