Chapter 33: Can't you get pregnant just by holding hands?
Yin Mengran entered the bedroom and saw Zhou Heng lying on the bed, fast asleep. His long eyelashes drooped, his eyes were closed, and he was breathing evenly.
Seeing Zhou Heng fast asleep, Yin Mengran smiled faintly.
She quietly walked to the bedside, then picked up the blanket and covered Zhou Heng with it.
"Good night..."
Yin Mengran turned off the bedroom light and lay down on the other side of the bed.
Now, she's no longer as terrified as she was the first night. Lying in bed, she feels right at home, completely at ease.
The cool moonlight streamed in through the gaps in the curtains, making the bedroom exceptionally quiet, a stark contrast to Zhou Heng's deep sleep.
Yin Mengran wasn't sleepy at all, meaning she couldn't fall asleep right now.
She began to recall the events of the day. If there was one thing she gained from the day, it was making friends with Tang Zhi...
Don't let her seemingly indifferent demeanor fool you; she's probably quite happy.
Yin Mengran still found it hard to believe what Zhou Heng had said to her. Would Tang Zhi, who was perceived by her classmates as unapproachable, really be happy to be her friend?
Yin Mengran took out her phone, opened it, and looked at her chat interface with Tang Zhi.
At this point, nothing had been discussed; there was only a verification message.
She opened Tang Zhi's WeChat Moments and found that, like Zhou Heng's, it was completely empty...
If you open Tong Yining's WeChat Moments, you'll see many photos of her sharing delicious food and beautiful scenery from her travels.
Yin Mengran thought that Tang Zhi should still be awake at this time.
She had a sudden urge to send Tang Zhi a message...
I'm free right now, but she's probably playing games, right? Is it okay to bother her?
After hesitating for a moment, Yin Mengran decided that a simple greeting would suffice; if she was busy, she probably wouldn't reply.
Yin Mengran sent a greeting emoji, then turned off her phone.
There was a hint of anticipation, and a touch of nervousness.
Because Tang Zhi was someone she couldn't fathom; she couldn't possibly predict whether Tang Zhi would reply, or how she would reply.
About two minutes later, Yin Mengran's phone rang. She quickly opened it and found that it was indeed a message from Tang Zhi!
"【What's wrong? Shouldn't you be sleeping with Zhou Heng right now? Why are you messaging me?】"
"Um?!"
Yin Mengran stared wide-eyed at the message on her phone in disbelief.
She quickly glanced behind her, trying to see if Zhou Heng had woken up. If he saw what she had said, she would probably be so embarrassed.
"【What do you mean by cuddling while sleeping... we sleep separately, uh, with a blanket between us...】"
"【Huh? You two really slept in the same bed?】"
"hiss--"
Yin Mengran realized that she might have sent the message to the wrong person; she shouldn't have told Tang Zhi about this!
She only knew that she lived at Zhou Heng's house, but she didn't know where she slept!
Isn't this just self-destruction?
Tang Zhi sent another emoji to express her surprise.
Yin Mengran knew that explaining was useless, so she told Tang Zhi the truth.
She initially planned to sleep on the sofa, but Zhou Heng wouldn't allow it. They kept refusing, and then... they both ended up sleeping in the bed.
I've stayed here for several nights now, and I've gotten used to it...
"Since you've already slept in the same bed, why not just officially become a couple?"
"【Ah...how do I confirm the relationship...】"
Yin Mengran stared at the chat history on her phone, her heart pounding.
This was truly a conversation that made her heart race!
"【I don't know, this is outside my area of knowledge. Isn't it true that holding hands can lead to pregnancy?】"
"[…]"
Looking at the message Tang Zhi sent, Yin Mengran thought to herself that Tang Zhi must know a lot!
They definitely know more than I do! But they won't tell me!
"boom--"
"!!"
Yin Mengran's phone suddenly slipped from her hand and nearly hit her in the face.
Her hand froze, completely immobilized; her eyes widened, and her body seemed stiff.
Because now, Zhou Heng's arm is draped over him!
Zhou Heng just turned over and straddled the middle of the blanket, then stretched his arm over and pressed it against her body, making it look as if Zhou Heng was holding her while she slept!
"Ah... Zhou..."
Yin Mengran mechanically turned her head to look at Zhou Heng's face, which was only ten centimeters away from her.
He was still asleep at this moment, and this was a completely unconscious act on his part.
But what should I do now? Should I wake him up?
If I move around too much now, I'll probably wake him up right away...
Since he was already like this, he must be extremely sleepy, and Yin Mengran simply couldn't bear to wake him.
After all, Zhou Heng must have endured more pressure and fatigue this past week due to his own reasons.
With exams coming up soon, his pressure is even greater. Tomorrow's rest will hopefully help him relax his tense nerves.
That's why he's so sleepy.
It's good that he sleeps like this; it will make him feel much more relaxed tomorrow and release a lot of stress.
After a moment's thought, Yin Mengran lowered her hand and decided not to wake Zhou Heng, letting him sleep peacefully.
I would feel incredibly guilty if I woke him up.
Yin Mengran stared at the dark ceiling, unable to close her eyes. She wasn't very sleepy to begin with, and this situation made it even harder for her to fall asleep.
Feeling Zhou Heng's strong arms made her feel exceptionally safe.
Even through the blanket, I could feel it.
She even started fantasizing about what it would feel like to lie in Zhou Heng's arms...
That feeling of being surrounded must make people feel especially at ease.
And so, twenty minutes passed, and Yin Mengran remained motionless, allowing Zhou Heng to sleep peacefully.
At this moment, Zhou Heng's arm moved.
His arm moved up a little, directly from Yin Mengran's stomach to her chest!
"!"
Yin Mengran's body trembled slightly. Her face could not be seen in the darkness, but it was burning hot. Without a doubt, it was very red!
Luckily, there was a blanket between us; otherwise, I would definitely be frozen in place right now.
About ten minutes later, Zhou Heng turned over again, back to his side, leaving Yin Mengran with his back to him.
Her tense body relaxed, otherwise she would have felt as if her waist was suspended in mid-air.
"He probably won't remember anything tomorrow..."
Yin Mengran thought to herself,
But deep down, she had a thought: she wanted Zhou Heng to remember all of this...
Although she knew it was impossible,
After persisting for so long, Yin Mengran also felt sleepy, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep in no time.
After a while...
Zhou Heng opened his eyes wide, as if cold sweat was beading on his forehead.
He's terrified!
He actually woke up just before he turned over!
When he woke up, he found himself sleeping in the middle of the bed, with his arm around Yin Mengran. He didn't know if Yin Mengran was asleep or not!
So he quickly rolled over and returned to this side, facing the wall, trembling with fear.
What if Yin Mengran isn't asleep? Will she come and question me tomorrow?
I'll just say I don't know! I was sleeping soundly!
Ah!
