My Ex-husband Asked Me to Remarry Him Every Day
Chapter 173 Didn’t I Tell You Not to Cross the Line?

Chapter 173: Chapter 173 Didn’t I Tell You Not to Cross the Line?

Shen Dang’s hands froze, afraid she might accuse him.

This wasn’t his doing.

Shen Dang considered whether he should record this moment, but before he could, the movements beside him ceased.

Shen Dang was about to close his eyes and continue sleeping.

Qiao Xi then prodded towards him, her chin resting right on his shoulder, her breath wafting onto his neck.

Shen Dang: "..."

Wasn’t this seduction?

What now?

Taking advantage of dreaming?

In the darkness, Shen Dang let out a short laugh.

Shen Dang intended to push Qiao Xi back to her place to avoid her blaming him for crossing boundaries tomorrow.

However, just as he reached out, he stopped mid-air.

No, she rolled over by herself, how can it be his fault?

If she didn’t roll back to her place tonight, then tomorrow it would be him who would reprimand her.

Right, that’s the plan.

Shen Dang placed his hand back on his stomach and stopped moving.

He closed his eyes again but found himself completely awake, not feeling drowsy at all.

The faint and charming fragrance from beside him was too close, effortlessly stirring his heart.

Deep into the night, all was silent, and the atmosphere between a man and woman sharing a bed was especially prone to breeding complex feelings.

The person lying beside wasn’t just anyone, how could he not react?

If he didn’t have any thoughts, that would be strange!

Shen Dang’s chest heaved briefly as he looked at the person sleeping peacefully beside him and couldn’t help but lower his head to kiss her lips.

Initially, he just touched her lips uncontrollably, but once the thought arose, it was hard to take it back.

Only upon kissing did he realize he had become addicted.

Shen Dang couldn’t resist deepening the kiss, still somewhat restrained, carefully and tenderly conquering her.

In the darkness, it seemed as though a demon had arisen.

The room’s temperature climbed gradually, as if it were on fire.

In her sleep, Qiao Xi felt suffocated, as if something was pressing on her, similar to a nightmare, feeling discomfort all over.

Qiao Xi struggled a few times, emitting sounds of displeasure.

Shen Dang’s eyes gradually darkened, he stopped his actions and pulled away from her lips.

The disturbance didn’t wake Qiao Xi; she even turned in his arms, leaving only the side of her face visible.

Not knowing if her ignorance disappointed him, Shen Dang turned back to his side.

His chest heaved even more than before, and his breathing turned slightly rougher.

After a while, Shen Dang got out of bed.

Although he hadn’t done much, his heart felt considerably relieved.

Yet his body felt worse, as if needing something to fill it.

Living for over twenty years, Shen Dang felt this emptiness for the first time.

He hooked his lips and let out a self-mocking chuckle.

Soon, the sound of flowing water filled the bathroom.

...

This winter had been long, but Hai City truly felt like winter after a night of heavy snow.

The balcony was piled with snow overnight, a vast expanse of white.

The room lights were off, and the light from outside was somewhat dazzling.

Qiao Xi groaned softly upon waking, her curled eyelashes trembling slightly, like a butterfly spreading its wings.

A few seconds later, Qiao Xi opened her eyes, her tea-colored pupils reflecting the man’s devastatingly handsome face.

Sharp and exquisite features, brows and eyes well-sculpted, like an ink painting.

—Shen Dang!

Qiao Xi suddenly felt a pang in her heart.

Why were they so close?

This realization made Qiao Xi very uncomfortable.

Who had crossed the line?

But this wasn’t the moment to ponder upon that, as Qiao Xi, startled, immediately pushed Shen Dang away.

Shen Dang woke up.

"Tired, need to sleep a bit more."

His voice was sleepy, slightly hoarse and magnetic, and low.

As he spoke, his strong arms instinctively tightened.

Somehow, things had ended up this way overnight; Qiao Xi still lay in his arms, and with his movement, he instantly tightened his hold on her.

Such an early morning excitement made Qiao Xi feel a tingling sensation spreading from her spine.

She sprung up from his embrace and sat on the bed, her cold gaze fixed on him: "Didn’t I tell you not to cross the line?"

It was simply too noisy.

Shen Dang still wanted to sleep, and when he opened his eyes, there were some red streaks in them.

His vision gradually cleared, and Shen Dang met Qiao Xi’s angry, beautiful face.

"...What did you say?"

Seeing him like this, Qiao Xi was very annoyed: "You crossed the line, Shen Dang!"

They even ended up hugging each other!

This was utterly absurd.

Shen Dang’s mind cleared a bit more from her yell.

Wasn’t it like this last night?

Shen Dang looked around and finally his gaze returned to her face: "Look carefully, was it me who crossed the line?"

Qiao Xi, seeing the smile on his face that seemed both mocking and not, became guarded.

She looked around, then after seeing clearly, her pupils slightly widened.

It was she who had rolled over to Shen Dang’s side.

So why had she rolled over here?

Initially indignant, Qiao Xi now felt guilty.

"What time is it now?" Shen Dang propped his hands behind his head, looking at her while lazily yawning.

How could he still be so calm?!

Qiao Xi ran her fingers through her hair messily.

She checked her phone, it was just past eight, still fairly early, but today was New Year’s Day.

No lying in.

Without a word, Qiao Xi got off the bed and walked into the bathroom.

So embarrassing.

Just shut herself away.

Seemingly displeased, Shen Dang clicked his tongue and sat up from the bed, left with no choice but to check the time himself.

Seeing Qiao Xi had gone to get ready, Shen Dang simply got out of bed too.

In the bathroom, Qiao Xi was brushing her teeth in front of the mirror. Hearing the door open, she looked over to see Shen Dang walking in with all the pomp and ceremony.

"What are you doing?"

Her voice was muffled and unclear, her mouth full of foam, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

"Brushing my teeth," Shen Dang responded indifferently.

"You didn’t see I was brushing?" she glared at him.

"Together, saves time."

He spoke leisurely, squeezed toothpaste on his brush, then looked at her before starting to brush.

Qiao Xi: "Are you that rushed for time?"

The bathroom lights were bright, seemingly concentrating all on him, and his dark eyes and handsome face carried a faint smile.

Shen Dang suddenly felt a fresh sensation.

The first time brushing teeth together with a woman.

Qiao Xi: "..."

What’s he laughing at? Is he nuts?

Qiao Xi hastened her brushing, spat the foam, rinsed her mouth with warm water, and roughly washed her face.

Shen Dang: "..."

Is Fairy Qiao always like this?

After leaving the bathroom, Shen Dang laughed quietly, maintaining his unhurried movements.

Qiao Xi gave one last look at the bed she had slept in the previous night, now all the bedding tossed aside.

Only Shen Dang’s side was messily crumpled, while the pillow she had used was skewed.

Qiao Xi: "..."
