Though the taste was exquisite, Shen Yi was afraid of truly provoking Qin Jiao. He quickly flashed a grin and murmured sweet nothings in her ear for a good while. After washing up, he finally pulled her into his arms.
Qin Jiao wasn't actually angry, but she knew she couldn't spoil him. Especially not the Shen Yi of today, who was, in fact, rather childish around her.
She had heard the saying before: men are boys until the day they die.
Knowing that was one thing, but rules still had to be established.
Fortunately, Shen Yi grumbled a bit, but even though he wanted to keep going, he restrained himself. He held Qin Jiao, murmured more sweet nothings in her ear, and soon fell asleep.
Qin Jiao snuggled closer into his embrace and closed her eyes, a faint smile gracing her lips.
