Seven Hundred and Seventy-Two Deep Love (1)

Ye Xiao looked down at her, his eyes filled with doting and pity that even he didn't know he had, "Don't you have insomnia?"

"Well, I had insomnia before, but I probably won't have insomnia today..." She murmured, burying her face deeper into his chest.

There was more tenderness in Ye Xiao's eyes.

In the bathtub in the bathroom, the hot water is steaming and the mist is lingering. Night Owl was lying inside, and she was sleeping with her back against his chest. Ye Xiao was tall, and when she lay on top of him, held in his arms by his long hands and feet, she looked even more petite.

In Ye Xiao's mind, the images of ten years ago and the images of today overlapped one after another. He couldn't help but kiss the top of her hair, his big palms were tightly interlocked with her fingers, and they were gathered on her belly. I missed a whole ten years, and now that I think about it, I still feel it’s a pity.

"Would you like to talk to me about your affairs?" Ye Xiao said quietly.

"Mine? What about me?"

"You can say whatever you want about these ten years." He wanted to know how she had lived these ten years. He could no longer experience or share happiness or sadness with her, but he still wanted to hear her tell him.

"These ten years..." Bai Suye murmured, squinting his eyes sleepily and resting his head on his shoulder. Thinking back on the past ten years, he seemed to have lived in a muddle. It wasn't until the day he appeared in country S that her world gradually became clear again.

She turned around and lay on Ye Xiao's shoulder, "In the past few years, I lived in a haze every day and often suffered from insomnia. Occasionally I finally fell asleep, and I would have nightmares. In my dreams, I was always kicked by you in the end. Kill with a gun. The sky is filled with blood..."

Night Owl's breath tightened and he interrupted her, "There is no need to elaborate on the content of the nightmare. Dreams are all reverses."

Kill her?

If he could do it, it wouldn't be so painful. Moreover, it lasted ten years.

Bai Suye smiled, obviously talking about her past, but Ye Xiao's expression looked much heavier than hers.

"Later, the old lady at home was worried that I would die at any time if I kept going on like this. So, I took a leave of absence from the Ministry of National Defense for a while, saw many psychiatrists, and took a lot of messy medicines..."

Night Owl's breathing became tighter and tighter.

"What happened next?" The voice was dark, hoarse, and slightly changed its tone.

"Later..." Bai Suye thought for a moment,

"Later, I got much better. At least, I no longer had to rely on drugs to maintain myself."

"Then why did you start taking these medicines again recently?"

"Relapse."

Ye Xiao held up her little face, raised her face, and looked a little deeper, "Because of me?"

Bai Suye didn't say anything anymore. He felt that Ye Xiao was asking questions knowingly. She just closed her eyes, hugged Ye Xiao's neck tightly with her arms, as if seeking comfort, and buried her face deeply in his shoulder.

Ye Xiao didn't ask any more questions. There was a kind of love and affection that was spreading and spreading, gradually filling his whole heart. He just held her close.

Half an hour later...

She literally lay in the bathtub and fell asleep on top of him. Ye Xiao took her out, took a bath towel and wiped her wet, then wrapped her in a bathrobe and put her on the bed.

…………

Bai Suye slept in a daze, but she could still feel the presence of the man beside her.

As soon as she lay on the bed, she subconsciously leaned towards him and instinctively wrapped her hands around the man's waist. Such a small gesture caused waves in Ye Xiao's heart. In a daze, I felt that I was indeed needed by her. At least, at this moment...

He let her rest on his arm. When she moved, the bathrobe slipped off her body, exposing one shoulder. On his shoulder, the old wound was still there - it was the shot he took.

Night Owl breathed heavily, and rubbed his thumb on the small wound for a long time. Finally, he held her tightly in his arms.

I just wish...

From then on, they never hurt each other again.

This night.

Bai Suye slept very comfortably.

When I woke up in the morning, Ye Xiao was talking on the phone with someone on the corridor outside the room. Bai Suye was half asleep, as if he heard something about the remaining two contracts, and he suddenly woke up a lot.

"You guys talk to them first. I'll go there in person next month for other details." Ye Xiao's voice was always calm and calm.

"Yes, two contracts, signed together, the sooner the better."

Bai Suye could no longer hear what Ye Xiao was talking about next. There was no trace of sleep left in her, and all she could remember in her mind was that he said the sooner the better...

She stared at his back through the glass door. Outside the window, the thin morning sun shone over and fell on him, making him not as cold as before, but vaguely feeling a little warmer.

Bai Suye really wants to seize this warmth...

Everything last night made her so greedy...

But, can she really catch it? She wasn't sure at all.

As if there was a tacit understanding, Ye Xiao, who was on the phone, suddenly turned his face. His eyes suddenly met the ones she was looking at him. Bai Suye didn't move his eyes away. Instead, his eyes curled up and he sat up from the quilt.

"I'll hang up now. There's still something else to do here." Ye Xiao couldn't focus on the phone anymore.

After saying a few simple words, he hung up the phone.

Open the glass door and come in from the outside.

Bai Suye had already gotten off the bed and wrapped herself in her pajamas.

"Did it wake you up?" Ye Xiao asked.

"No, I woke up naturally." Bai Suye smiled and tied up her hair lazily, "I'm going to wash up first. However, I'll make you whatever you want to eat in the morning."

"You do it? How?"

"Isn't there a kitchen in the room? I was very bored when I lived here before, so I bought some ingredients and learned to make something by myself. I can't make complicated things, but I can make simple porridge." She said While walking towards the bathroom.

After a while, her voice came from the bathroom. The whole person is much more energetic than what she saw before.

Ye Xiao replied from outside: "Well, I don't have any objection."

"Then sit down for a while and I'll get ready after washing up."

Ye Xiao said 'hmm', turned around and went out to make a phone call. It seemed to be a call to her last attending doctor. Only then did she remember that she needed to get her test results today.

——————

Bai Suye went into the kitchen to make porridge, a very simple salty porridge.

Night Owl stood outside the kitchen watching her. He was wearing trousers and a jumper, and his feet were bare on the carpet. Simple and neat look. When Bai Suye raised her head and saw him, she couldn't take her eyes away.

"You're not going to stand here all the time, are you?" She spoke first.

"You're busy with your business, don't worry about me." Ye Xiao didn't move, still standing there.

"..." No matter how shameless you are, you will still feel uncomfortable with the look in his eyes.
