Chapter 1190: Covering Her Up in the Middle of the Night
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Qiqi scanned the simple layout of the room. It was really a breath of fresh air in this luxurious palace.
“You said it was in the past. Anyway, people like you stay here now,” she said casually.
Bei Mingtian’s Adam’s apple bobbed. It hurt.
So he seemed like a very inconspicuous person?
Could this woman’s words be more infuriating?!!
Actually, Gu Qiqi didn’t think that way. She just felt that this small building was simple and suitable for hiding. She suggested, “Xiao Tian, why don’t I stay here too?”
Bei Mingtian was shocked and did not answer immediately.
He only had one bed here. If she came to stay…
Gu Qiqi said, “Is it very difficult? We’re senior and junior brothers, okay?”
Bei Mingtian choked and was speechless for a few seconds before saying, “Have you ever treated me as your senior brother?”
“Yes!” Gu Qiqi smiled sweetly. “Senior Brother Xiao Tian!”
Bei Mingtian was speechless.
Gu Qiqi had already picked up the blanket and thrown it onto a small sofa by the closet.
Bei Mingtian’s expression turned even uglier. “So you’re planning to let me sleep on the sofa…”
Before she could finish speaking, Gu Qiqi curled up on the sofa and pulled the blanket over her. “Let’s rest first! We’ll talk tomorrow!”
Bei Mingtian was speechless.
It wasn’t until a long time after Gu Qiqi fell asleep that her breathing sounded rhythmically in the room. Bei Mingtianai mechanically moved his numb legs and sat on the edge of the bed.
Silly woman!
She slept so heartlessly!
She actually believed that he was a gentleman?
“We’re senior and junior brothers!” The woman’s delicate voice kept ringing in his ears.
He took a deep breath, his eyes darkening.
That night, he almost didn’t sleep at all. He kept staring at Gu Qiqi, who was lying on the sofa.
Several times he’d wanted to carry her to bed and sleep.
However, he did not dare to act rashly.
Only in the middle of the night, when she was kicking off the blanket, did he get out of bed with a sigh and tuck her in again.
The night passed uneventfully.
When she woke up the next day, Gu Qiqi realized that breakfast was already on the small round coffee table by the sofa.
She couldn’t help but drink a cup of fragrant coffee to refresh herself before going to the bathroom to wash up.
As it was a transparent bathroom, she was too embarrassed to take a shower. She only washed up briefly before coming out for breakfast.
Just as she finished eating, Bei Mingtian walked up the stairs, dressed in a neat sports outfit.
His hair was soaked, and he had a towel draped over his shoulder.
Clearly, he had gone for his morning workout.
Seeing that he had entered the bathroom as if no one else was around, Gu Qiqi quickly shouted, “Wait! You can shower after I leave!”
This damn transparent bathroom! She wanted to strangle the designer.
After the meal.
Bei Mingtian took out a map and placed it in front of Gu Qiqi. “This is for you.”
Gu Qiqi received it in surprise. She couldn’t believe that this map had come so easily. “How… did you know that I was looking for the map?”
“Didn’t you get lost yesterday?” Bei Mingtian’s expression was calm, and she couldn’t tell anything.
Gu Qiqi coughed awkwardly. “Yes, yes. I was lost.”
She unfolded it and saw that it was indeed completely different from the ancient map of the palace sold outside.
One of the routes was the one she had taken after sneaking in last night. She recognized it at a glance.
Yes, this was definitely the latest map of the palace.
It was hand-painted and looked so precious.
“You drew it yourself?” Gu Qiqi asked.
Before Bei Mingtian could answer, she smiled and answered her own question. “Of course not. This map is so valuable. The soldiers patrolling and guarding every important location are clearly marked. How could you know? Besides, you must have slept like a pig last night. How could you have had time to draw a map?”
Bei Mingtian was speechless.
He must have covered a pig with a blanket last night!!!
