She had just put the quilt on him, and the man opened his eyes and said, “Why don’t you sleep yet?”
Feng Ling’s hand paused. “I’m going to sleep right away.”
Li Nanheng opened his eyes, glanced at her, then looked at the quilt on his body, and secretly smiled, saying lightly, “Go to bed early.”
Feng Ling grunted and lay down beside him.
Vaguely hearing the sound of clothes rubbing against the sheet, Li Nanheng frowned, opened his eyes and looked at her. When he found that she lay down in that winter suit, he asked, “Why don’t you take off your clothes?”
Feng Ling sorted out the puffy clothes on her body and didn’t move. “Well, I got a cold, so I want to keep myself warm. It will be very cold at night. Boss, the quilt is yours and I’ll just sleep like this.”
“Then why did you lie in the snow for so long just now?”
“I was just out to get some fresh air, but I was too tired, so I lay down. Anyway, the clothes were very thick and it wouldn’t be cold even if I lay in the snow,” Feng Ling said lightly.
Li Nanheng felt the thick clothes on her was such an eyesore, so he said coldly, “Take off your clothes.”
Feng Ling closed her eyes to sleep as if not hearing him.
“I said take off your clothes. Don’t you hear me, eh?” The man sounded very unhappy.
Feng Ling had no choice but opened his eyes. “Boss, it’s really chilly.”
“Then use the quilt. Who will sleep in such thick clothes? Don’t you feel uncomfortable?”
“I don’t feel uncomfortable. I’m used to it. I have slept like this occasionally these days.”
Li Nanheng didn’t speak anymore, but turned over, facing her directly and staring at her with arms around his chest.
Feng Ling remained in a lying posture. She would just refuse to take off her clothes anyway. She did not use the chest wrapping cloth. If she took off her clothes and lay down beside him, he could easily find out about her secret.
She would not take off clothes unless she put on the chest wrap tomorrow.
She pretended not to see the man who had turned sideways and lay flat, closing her eyes.
“Are you sure you want to sleep like this?”
“Well, Yes.”
Li Nanheng’s eyes narrowed and his voice was cold. “Are you afraid that I will molest you, or do you feel insecure sleeping in a bed with me? Do you have to wear so many clothes?”
“… Boss, I’m just afraid of cold,” Feng Ling said without too much explanation.
“That’s because you didn’t do enough cold-resistant training.” Li Nanheng snorted.
“Well, maybe…” Feng Ling didn’t want to say anymore. Boss Li was such a shrewd person. She’d better not say too much in front of him.
Seeing that she closed her eyes and was going to sleep, Li Nanheng stopped talking and turned back to lie on his back. He closed her eyes, but still said coldly, “Suit yourself.”
Feng Ling breathed a sigh of relief in her heart and didn’t speak again.
The tent was extremely quiet. It was really uncomfortable to sleep in such a thick winter suit. It was so thick that she couldn’t even turn over. If she moved too violently, she would disturb Boss Li.
Halfway to sleep, she woke up because she couldn’t turn over, and then she closed her eyes to continue to sleep. Between wake and dream, she suddenly heard something and immediately opened her eyes with vigilance.
However, before she realized what happened, she suddenly felt a pain in her waist and was kicked out of the bed.
The clothes were so thick that it wouldn’t hurt to fall to the ground, but she was still startled, and when she realized who kicked her, she struggled to get up and looked at the cruel man who was still lying comfortably after kicking her to the floor. “Boss?”
With his eyes closed, Li Nanheng said flatly, “It’s too crowded.”
Feng Ling’s eyebrows twitched and looked at the bed under him. Her thick winter suit did occupy a lot of s.p.a.ce, but even if it was crowded, kicking her off the bed would be too much.
She didn’t say anything but pressed her jacket hard. Anyway, this kind of winter suit was very puffy and it would save a lot of s.p.a.ce if she pressed it flatter.
After that, she went back to bed and lay down again. After lying down, she said aggrievedly, “Boss, don’t kick me again.”
The man did not respond as if falling asleep again.
She closed her eyes and continued to sleep.
However, less than five minutes later, with a thud, Feng Ling was kicked off the bed by him again.
Feng Ling lying on the ground: “…”
She was angry, but she didn’t want to provoke him. Silently, she took the pillow from the bed and lay down on the floor to continue to sleep. Anyway, the clothes were thick, so she had no problem sleeping on the floor.
This time, the man sat up. He lowered his eyes and looked at Feng Ling who looked not affected at all.
Sensing the man’s stare, Feng Ling opened her eyes and looked at him.
“Is it comfortable to lie on the floor?”
“Not bad. My clothes are thick, so I don’t feel anything.”
“OK, I was going to bring another folding bed tomorrow night, but it seems that it’s unnecessary. Then let’s just sleep like this, I on the bed, and you on the ground.”
Feng Ling was silent for a while and sat up. She scratched her messy hair. “Boss, do you hate me? Why? I just want to sleep.”
Li Nanheng said deadpan, “Indeed, you just want to sleep, but why don’t you take off your clothes. Do you think I’ll molest you?”
Feng Ling was speechless. She pursed her lips and suddenly stood up from the ground. “Forget it, I won’t sleep. Boss, you can sleep on your own.”
Li Nanheng looked at her unhappy face and was just about to talk when Feng Ling picked up a folding military backrest chair and took it to the door of the tent. She put it down against the door and sat on the chair as if going to guard him like a vigil.
Li Nanheng looked at her little head with messy hair and then at her black face, and raised his eyebrows.
He just wanted Feng Ling to take off her clothes and sleep well. If she slept in such a thick winter suit that was made of airtight fabric, she wouldn’t sleep well. The suit was so big on her and she might get suffocated sleeping in it. He did these for her good. Why was she so angry?
“You won’t sleep?” He asked, looking at her.
Feng Ling didn’t speak but pulled her hat up to cover her head, unwilling to hear his vexing voice.
It seemed that she was really angry.
Li Nanheng couldn’t help but glance at the ground under the bed.
Did he kick her too hard just now?
