194 Steady

Even though she was wearing a double-layered jacket, Yue Jiaojiao’s slender waist could still be easily held.

A petite woman sat on Zhao Zhan’s lap, her entire body completely enveloped by his large frame.

Zhao Zhan’s fingers moved up slowly, then he gently rubbed the back of her nape. His rough fingertips touched her delicate ears, and Yue Jiaojiao shrank back from the sensitive touch, her earlobes were so red that they looked similar to blood.

Zhao Zhan’s fingers were reluctant to pull back, and the struggle in his eyes quickly disappeared. He leaned forward and asked in a hoarse voice, “Do you want to lie down for a while? I can read you another story.”

He could hear every movement on the ship. Zhao Zhan wanted to shield her from everyone on this boat. How could he be willing to let others have a glimpse of her?

Yue Jiaojiao’s eyes were wet. When she heard the contents of Zhao Zhan’s words, her gaze wavered for a moment before she nodded.

She would never admit that her breathing had been irregular just now!

Seeing that she had agreed, Zhao Zhan laid down with her in his arms. He leaned on the outside and lay on his side, taking up only a little space for fear of crushing her. Then he took a book and began to read softly.

Yue Jiaojiao’s head was resting on his arm. She had had enough sleep, and now that she was lying down, she was moving around a little disobediently.

She poked Zhao Zhan everywhere and then pinched his muscles. Her little hand slid across Zhao Zhan’s chin, paused at his adam’s apple for a moment, and then gently rubbed it a few times.

She was engrossed in the game of annoyance and it was hard for Zhao Zhan to focus on his travel notes.

After reading a few lines, he began to forget where he had just read and started the sentence again. After a long time, he couldn’t even turn a page of the book.

“Jiaojiao?”

The moment he opened his mouth, his adam’s apple moved around Yue Jiaojiao’s hand.

“Zhao Zhan, say that again.”

It was rare for Zhao Zhan to put the book on the table beside him in an authoritarian manner. He wrapped his legs around her tightly and pulled her into his arms without saying anything. “Be good, don’t move.”

When he spoke, he moved back a little, causing the bed to make a creaking sound.

Yue Jiaojiao, who had snapped back to her senses, was silent for a moment. She silently stuck close to Zhao Zhan, breathing hot air into his chest. “Zhao Zhan, this bed isn’t very sturdy. Don’t mess around.”

If he did, they would probably end up with a lot of bruises.

Zhao Zhan chuckled and rubbed his chin gently against the top of her head. “Okay, I won’t mess around.”

It was clear that a delicate person had unintentionally started the fire just now, but now he had taken the blame for her again.

The cabin was small, but it was still full of warmth.

Before Yue Jiaojiao could say anything more, she heard Zhao Zhan’s calm breathing.

It seems that the past few days were not without exhaustion…

She moved her body to let Zhao Zhan lie down more comfortably. However, just as she moved, Zhao Zhan subconsciously pulled her back into his arms. His voice was still sleepy. “I’m still here.”

Yue Jiaojiao didn’t dare to move around as she was afraid of waking him up.

After staying on the ship for so long, Yue Jiaojiao never once went to the deck. Under Zhao Zhan’s care, the journey that was supposed to be tough didn’t feel that difficult at all.

After the ship stopped at Hekou County, Zhao Zhan sold all the soybean paste he had left to the manager. He also made an agreement with him that if he needed the soybean paste again in the future, he would send it to Manager Li at the rising cloud Inn, and the manager on the ship would go and get it himself.

After staying on the boat for so long, Yue Jiaojiao still felt like her entire body was shaking the moment she got off the boat.
