Chapter 1061: Double Standards

The night was dark and silent.

Wen Xinya laid in Si Yiyan’s arms and opened her eyes to see that it was already half-past two in the morning. She was so tired that she could not even open her eyes. However, she struggled to keep herself awake.

Although she could not experience the pain that Si Yiyan was going through because of his insomnia, she could accompany him through his sleepless nights. Although she knew that she was being rather silly, she could not imagine leaving Si Yiyan alone in the dark to wait for daybreak to arrive while she slept soundly.

“Why aren’t you asleep yet?” Si Yiyan asked, tightening his grip on her waist.

Wen Xinya answered softly, “I can’t sleep!”

Afraid that she would disrupt Si Yiyan’s sleep, she remained still for the entire night and tried her best not to move. As a result, she was overwhelmed with discomfort. She did not expect… that she would disturb him just by opening her eyes.

Si Yiyan moved her into a comfortable position and kissed her on her cheek. “You’re such a silly lass.”

Does she think that I won’t know that she’s been staying awake just because she doesn’t dare move or make a sound? Her irregular breathing and stiff body have already given everything away.

She could not remain still at all whenever she was sleeping. She would kick her blanket off and toss and turn in bed. Hence, he would often have to adjust the blanket for her several times throughout the night. The fact that she stayed still simply meant that she was pretending to be asleep.

Pouting indignantly, Wen Xinya retorted. “If I’m silly, you definitely have a peculiar taste in women. You actually fell for a fool like me.”

She sounded rather coquettish and smug.

Si Yiyan smiled and nibbled her ear gently. “You’re right, I just like silly lasses.”

His insomnia was the reason she decided to stay up late together with him. She was obviously being silly, though he felt extremely touched by her actions.

Wen Xinya pursed her lips and remained silent.

Si Yiyan exclaimed, “Go to bed!”

Wen Xinya expressed assent vaguely.

Si Yiyan felt rather helpless because Wen Xinya refused to sleep unless he did. “Don’t worry, my insomnia is not as serious as it was previously. Besides, my condition has already improved after the nourishments that you’ve been giving me.”

For the past few days, she had been painstakingly brewing medicine and soup for him to soothe his senses in a bid to cure his insomnia. She would also give him head massages and light up some aromatherapy incense which smelled like her. He could sense that he was starting to relax even though he was still suffering from insomnia.

Wen Xinya purposely said, “Who’s worried about you? I was just afraid that I’d oversleep because I had a nap in the afternoon. That’s why I decided to stay awake.”

As soon as Wen Xinya finished speaking, she was overwhelmed with fatigue and stifled a yawn before blinking as much as she could in a bid to wake herself up.

Si Yiyan laughed and said, “Your eyelids are so heavy and yet, you still said that you’re not tired!”

Wen Xinya pushed Si Yiyan and exclaimed, “Those are double standards!”
