The morning sun was dazzling, and the light shone in from the window, filling the room with bright light.
Chi Le was a little dazed when he woke up. The surrounding environment was so unfamiliar that he couldn't tell where he was for a moment.
He blinked his eyes, turned over in the bed, and saw Sheng Zhuo lying opposite him.
A strange room, a strange bed. The only familiar thing in the whole room was the person sitting opposite. This situation seemed so familiar that Chi Le almost thought he was dreaming again.
Sheng Zhuo lay flat on the bed with the quilt covering him neatly. The light reflected on his face, making his profile softer than usual. He slept very lightly. When Chi Le turned over, he opened his eyes.
Chi Le saw Sheng Zhuo open his eyes, and finally realized before he opened his mouth that this was not a dream. He changed his words and finally said "good morning" dryly.
Sheng Zhuo seemed to be a little grumpy after waking up. With a sullen face, he hummed softly, sat up from the bed, threw back the quilt, and went to the bathroom.
His hair was a little messy from sleeping, his eyes were slightly covered, his pupils were dark, there was no smile on his face, and his every move revealed laziness and indifference. He was different from the one Chi Le usually saw. Chi Le couldn't help but look at him twice more, feeling that he was a little fresh.
When he withdrew his gaze, his eyes inadvertently slid across the area below Sheng Zhuo's waist and abdomen. He paused slightly, and his gaze quickly fixed on it. He looked for a moment, then closed his eyes in panic.
Oh no, it seems his wife is older than him.
Chi Le didn't want to believe it and suspected that he had seen it wrong. He opened his eyes slightly and took a peek.
Damn, it's indeed bigger than him.
After Sheng Zhuo finished washing up, all his bad mood was gone and he returned to his usual self, with a calm look and looking refreshed.
He flicked his hair and looked up, only to see Chi Le lying on the pillow in a depressed mood. He looked listless, as if he had suffered a blow.
Sheng Zhuo walked over and sat down beside the bed, then rubbed the back of his head with his hand, "What's wrong?"
Chi Le turned his head to look at him, his face sunk into the soft pillow, and he sighed silently.
Sheng Zhuo laughed, "Is this a nightmare?"
Chi Le nodded, his dark eyes looking straight at him, "What a big nightmare."
"What kind of nightmare is it?" Sheng Zhuo gently pinched his ear. "It scared you so much. Did you dream of some monster?"
Chi Le's lips moved for a long while, and finally he uttered four words with unclear meaning, "Giant creature."
"… "
Sheng Zhuo inexplicably felt that the way he looked at him was a little strange.
"What kind of giant creature?"
Chi Le buried his head in the pillow and rubbed it hard, with the words "refuse to answer" written all over his body.
“… Touching his hair won’t scare him.” Sheng Zhuo thought he was still scared, so he touched his soft hair and said, “Hurry up and get up, it’s almost time to gather.”
Chi Le's cheeks turned slightly red, and she felt that Sheng Zhuo's tone was like coaxing a child.
Sheng Zhuo saw that his face was gradually turning red, and thought that his mood had calmed down and he was no longer thinking about the "nightmare", so he stood up and wanted to help him up.
Sheng Zhuo's tall figure stood beside the bed, casting a shadow on Chi Le.
"... Have you grown taller again?" Chi Le looked up at him in disbelief.
