The 99th Divorce

Chapter 1695: It's Heavy!

"They're not so easily scared off!" As Shen Zhilie spoke, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of some charming architecture. He pointed and said, "Let's go on land."

Venice had many unique streets. The most famous were the shopping streets.

Ye Qianqian walked around with Shen Zhilie and bought several pretty trinkets before she began to feel tired.

She checked the time. It was only 5 p.m.

"Shen Zhilie, let's go for dinner. We can go back to sleep after that."

"Are you hungry?"

"I'm hungry and tired!"

Shen Zhilie looked at the state she was in and readily agreed. He took her back to the hotel.

There were many colorful attractions and eateries near the hotel. After eating, Ye Qianqian didn't have the energy to explore any further. She was exhausted.

She checked the time. It was 8 p.m.

In other words, it was close to 1 a.m. back in China.

She hadn't managed to get much sleep on board the plane. It was no wonder that she was so worn out.

When Ye Qianqian returned, she retrieved her clean clothes from the luggage and took a shower. She happily proceeded to sprawl out across the bed. She paid no further heed to Shen Zhilie.

Shen Zhilie emerged from the bathroom after his shower. As he looked at the couch and then at the room, his brows creased together.

He looked back and forth again. His heart was undecided.

He didn't want to sleep on the couch. It was going to be uncomfortable.

However, if he slept in the bedroom, would he earn a beating from Ye Qianqian when she awoke?

It wasn't exactly the beating he was concerned about. Rather, it was whether the dynamics between them would become awkward after that.

Well…

Shen Zhilie hesitated for a long time. In the end, he still couldn't muster up the courage to go in.

He slept on the couch in the sitting room regardless of how uncomfortable it was for his whole body.

In the middle of the night, Ye Qianqian awoke to use the bathroom. The bathroom wasn't connected to the bedroom. To access the bathroom, she had to pass through the sitting room.

When she went out, Ye Qianqian saw Shen Zhilie asleep on the couch with his limbs sticking out in all directions.

The temperature in the suite was quite low, and Shen Zhilie was only dressed in a singlet. He didn't have a blanket and was breathing steadily.

Just walking out made Ye Qianqian shiver. How much worse was it for Shen Zhilie who had been asleep for so long?

She searched around but couldn't find anything appropriate that could be used as a blanket.

Eventually, Ye Qianqian realized that the air-conditioning in the bedroom could be adjusted to a higher temperature. She took her blanket out for him.

This hotel's five-star reputation was well-deserved. Even their blankets were of high quality. They were thick and luxurious.

Even after she painstaking dragged the blanket out, the damn guy on the couch still showed no signs of waking up.

Ye Qianqian felt a little exasperated. She flung the blanket out and covered it over his body.

Shen Zhilie was in a deep sleep. The sudden movement shocked him awake.

He suddenly turned and almost fell off the couch.

His eyelids flew open, and he registered that it was Ye Qianqian.

Between him and Ye Qianqian was a huge heap of a blanket.

Shen Zhilie sat up and rubbed his head. "What's wrong?" he asked.

"I'm covering you with a blanket!" Ye Qianqian said with frustration. "Do you have any idea how heavy this blanket is?"

Shen Zhilie could tell. He reached out to gauge the weight and nodded his head. "Yeah, it's pretty heavy."

Ye Qianqian harrumphed and turned around to stomp back into the bedroom.

Now that her only blanket was gone, Ye Qianqian had no other option but to increase the temperature to 82 degrees Fahrenheit before lying back down on the bed.

Outside, Shen Zhilie looked down at the blanket and blinked his eyes.

This wouldn't do. This wouldn't do at all.

Now that she had given him her blanket, what was she going to cover herself with?

After a moment's thought, Shen Zhilie gathered the blanket up in his arms. He walked to the bedroom door and knocked on it.
