After brushing her teeth, Gu Mian didn’t ask him to wash her face because she wanted to use facial cleanser.
Just as she finished washing her face and was drying it off, she heard Nangong Yue say, "I’ve got the footbath ready for you. Come wash your feet."
Gu Mian raised an eyebrow and, without hesitation, sat down to soak her feet.
Nangong Yue stood by the side like a little wife.
After washing her feet, Gu Mian left first, and only then did Nangong Yue start fiddling with his own routine.
By the time he went out, Gu Mian was already half-asleep, lying on the bed with her eyes half-closed.
Nangong Yue changed into his pajamas and got into bed, not daring to disturb Gu Mian. He carefully reached out to turn off the light, saying, "Time to sleep."
Gu Mian opened her eyes and, as if talking to herself, said, "My mom asked me to go on a blind date."
Nangong Yue was so shocked by this that he almost blew up, but before he could ask, Gu Mian continued, "I agreed, I’m going on a blind date tomorrow."
For some reason, although Nangong Yue initially wanted to get angry, the fire within him suddenly extinguished, as if he couldn’t muster it.
He originally wanted to question, "You’re married, why are you going on a blind date? Can’t you tell your mom that you’re married to me!"
Yet, these words couldn’t come out; they turned into a feeling of helplessness.
"Yeah, got it." He finally responded, then stopped talking.
Gu Mian waited a long time but didn’t hear his next word, feeling a bit miffed, though she didn’t know exactly why.
Gu Mian snuggled into the bed, yanking the blanket, "Sleep!"
Nangong Yue remained silent. After a while, he cautiously tugged the blanket, seemingly because Gu Mian had pulled so hard that he was left without one.
Despite it being May and not very cold, nights still required a blanket.
Without a blanket, he couldn’t fall asleep easily.
