After sleeping on Qin Ruojing's bed for a night yesterday and now lying on the floor again, Chu Ge really felt a bit uncomfortable, amused at the thought of how he used to sleep anywhere, and since when had he become so picky?
Unconsciously, Chu Ge thought of a beggar's story.
This story is about a beggar begging in one place. One day, a man passed by him and, feeling sorry for him, gave him ten yuan. The beggar was very happy, thinking, ah, he's so generous, what a kind person, to encounter such a kind person, I'm really too lucky, too happy.
The next day, the beggar was in the same place begging and met the man again, who again gave him ten yuan. The beggar was still very grateful, thinking that this was such a kind person.
On the third day, the fourth day, the beggar still did not change his place to beg, and the man, just like the previous two days, gave him ten yuan when he saw him. Although the beggar was still grateful, he was not as excited as he was at first.
In this way, the beggar stayed in this place as time passed by, and that kind man gave him ten yuan every day, so the beggar gradually felt that it was a matter of course.
Thus, a long time passed, until one day the kind man, upon seeing the beggar again, gave him five yuan.
The beggar was a bit puzzled, eh? Why did he only give me five yuan today? Although puzzled, the beggar didn't ask much, thinking that this was just an accident, maybe tomorrow this kind man would give him ten yuan again.
As a result, in the following days, although the man still gave him money every day, each time it was only five yuan.
The beggar was puzzled, very, very puzzled, and finally, when he once again received five yuan from that person, he asked the question in his heart.
"Sir, didn't you always give me ten yuan before? Why has it become five yuan now?"
The kind man told him, "Before I was single, now I have a girlfriend, and I'm not very wealthy, so the money I give you has decreased."
The beggar received this answer and was immediately angry. He indignantly pointed at the man's nose and said, "God, how can you do this, you actually use my money to spend on your girlfriend, you're too much!"
Hearing the beggar say such things, the kind benefactor was very angry, snatched the five yuan back, and left a sentence, "You, don't expect to get a penny from me again!"
After saying this, the kind benefactor left, and as he said, never gave the beggar a penny again.
That beggar, from then on began to curse that man maliciously.
This story sounds like a joke, I guess anyone hearing such a story would think the beggar simply deserved a beating, but in fact, there are many situations in life where people are unknowingly doing all sorts of things similar to that beggar.
Chu Ge didn't previously mind sleeping on the floor, but after sleeping on a bed, he started thinking a little bit that he shouldn't continue sleeping on the floor.
While Chu Ge was thinking, Qin Ruojing's voice suddenly sounded in the quiet room.
"Chu Ge, come up on the bed to sleep."
Although Qin Ruojing tried her best to make her voice sound calm, when she spoke, it still trembled slightly involuntarily.
"Huh? After a night on the floor, you're not used to sleeping in a bed?" Because Chu Ge was deep in thought, he didn't notice the oddness in Qin Ruojing's voice and casually joked.
"Why do you have so much nonsense, I've said it, come up or not, it's up to you."
Only Qin Ruojing herself knew how much courage it took her to say this sentence. Hearing Chu Ge give her such an incoherent response, she was immediately very angry, saying angrily before crawling into bed, but only taking up a small part, leaving enough space for Chu Ge to sleep.
Chu Ge was stunned, completely at a loss, what was Qin Ruojing doing? He neither provoked her, so why was she getting angry out of nowhere?
With a belly full of puzzlement, Chu Ge sat up from the floor, and when he looked towards Qin Ruojing's bed, he suddenly realized.
No wonder Qin Ruojing was so angry, this was an invitation for him to sleep on the same bed with her!
Looking at Qin Ruojing who had her back to him, Chu Ge realized and then felt puzzled again, slightly analyzing to come up with a more reasonable conclusion.
She probably said this mostly because she saw his sleeping posture and thought of the burn on his back, with a compassionate attitude inviting him up on the bed.
"To be a young woman of beauty and wealth, and still be so considerate of those around her, this woman is really something,"
Chu Ge sighed in his heart, and a mischievous smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
"So, I'm coming up?"
Qin Ruojing didn't respond to Chu Ge.
"Am I really coming up?" Chu Ge asked for Qin Ruojing's opinion again.
"If you don't say anything, it means you have no objections, right, so, I'm taking off my clothes?" Chu Ge again sought Qin Ruojing's opinion.
Listening to Chu Ge's voice behind her, Qin Ruojing regretted it, really regretted it; she now had an urge to turn around and kick Chu Ge down. Why did this guy have so much nonsense?
She had said it very clearly just now, was Chu Ge hard of hearing or what? Just this little matter, why did he have to ask so many times?
"Can I really take off my clothes now?"
Chu Ge asked Qin Ruojing once more for her opinion.
Qin Ruojing still didn't say a word.
Since that was the case, Chu Ge assumed Qin Ruojing didn't mind, so he covered himself with a blanket and closed his eyes.
Of course, the blanket on him was not the same one Qin Ruojing was using; it was one he picked up from the floor, and there was still quite a distance between them.
Before long, a certain snoring sound started coming from Chu Ge's nose and mouth.
Although it wasn't exceedingly loud, it was much louder than any sound Chu Ge had made before, which startled Qin Ruojing. Her delicate body shivered involuntarily.
"Is this guy pretending to sleep on purpose? Is he waiting for me to turn around so he can suddenly scare me?" Qin Ruojing thought to herself.
She figured other people might not do such a bizarre thing, but with Chu Ge, one simply couldn't apply conventional logic. With him, anything was possible.
"Snore... Snore..."
The snoring behind her became more even, and Qin Ruojing's frown deepened.
"Is this guy pretending too well, or is he really asleep?"
Under the invasion of the snoring, Qin Ruojing felt it was quite grating and irritating, making her more and more inclined to take a look.
"Chu Ge?" After hesitating for a long time, Qin Ruojing called softly, but the response she got was still the even snoring behind her.
Qin Ruojing tried calling him twice more but still received no response. She finally couldn't help herself, gritted her teeth, mustered all her courage, tightly pursed her lower lip, closed her eyes, and pretended to roll over subconsciously in her sleep, moving imperceptibly as she turned bit by bit.
When Qin Ruojing stared at Chu Ge for nearly a minute, all her unease slowly dissipated, replaced by a sudden nameless fury.
Chu Ge actually... actually really fell asleep! And he slept so soundly! While sleeping, he even smacked his lips, as if he was having some sweet dream, with a very sleazy smile hanging on his face!
Looking at Chu Ge's smiling, sleeping face, Qin Ruojing was both angry and resentful, even her gums itched a little.
"To think I was there anxiously worrying, and this guy, who was intentionally provoking me just a few minutes ago, goes and falls asleep just like that? I mean, my looks and figure aren't so bad, right? I get a pretty high rate of second glances wherever I go, right? Am I really that uninteresting to him? Sleeping on the same bed as me, how can he not feel the slightest bit uneasy or excited?"
If Chu Ge really wanted to do anything to Qin Ruojing, she would never let him succeed. But seeing Chu Ge sleep so soundly, she realized she couldn't accept that either!
Qin Ruojing had heard stories about beasts, and now her evaluation of Chu Ge was summed up in one phrase: "Worse than a beast!"
She glared fiercely at Chu Ge for several seconds, feeling that if she didn't do something, she'd be infuriated to death by this fellow.
"Since this guy snores so loudly, keeping me from sleeping, there's no way I'm letting him sleep well either!"
Fuming in her heart, Qin Ruojing gave Chu Ge a kick, then quickly turned over and pretended to sleep again.
However, to Qin Ruojing's surprise, after waiting for a long time, there was no reaction from Chu Ge behind her. When she turned around again, she saw this guy had just changed his sleeping position, not waking up in the slightest, and the snores were even more robust.
Qin Ruojing felt like she was about to go crazy. How could he be like this? Sleeping like a log, not even a kick could wake him up? This is truly the legendary God of Sleep!
Setting her mind to maybe kick Chu Ge again, Qin Ruojing lifted her leg, hesitated several times, but in the end, still didn't deliver another kick.
After all, since Chu Ge came home with her, he had been busy doing so much the past few days. If she kicked him again now, not even letting him have a good night's sleep, she'd still feel guilty.
After giving Chu Ge a few more glances in his deep sleep, Qin Ruojing sighed in frustration, turned over, and covered her ears with her hands.
Unfortunately, no matter how tightly she covered her ears, she could still hear that annoying snoring clearly.
Qin Ruojing tossed and turned restlessly all night. Even though Chu Ge eventually stopped snoring, she still didn't manage to fall asleep until the outside began to gradually brighten.
"Hmm..."
Chu Ge stretched lazily when he naturally awoke, feeling refreshed and inexplicably comfortable all over.
As soon as he opened his eyes and checked the clock, it was only five in the morning. Glancing nonchalantly next to him, he saw Qin Ruojing looking at him too.
"Hmm? You're already awake this early?"
Qin Ruojing's eyelids fluttered, and she gave him a fierce glare, letting out a snort filled with irritation.
