Chapter 1697: She’s Shy
...he probably hadn’t changed the way he looked at her yet.
The more Ye Qianqian thought about it, the more awake she became.
When she realized that there wasn’t any movement behind her even after a long while, she slowly, imperceptibly, turned her body around...
Shen Zhilie behaved with much caution, and he was curled up in a corner, not occupying an inch more that he needed to.
The distance between the both of them was wide enough to accommodate a pillow. At that moment, Shen Zhilie’s breathing was even—evidence that he had fallen asleep.
Ye Qianqian relaxed and closed her eyes. She fell asleep very quickly. historical
Just as Shen Zhilie perceived that she had fallen asleep, he opened his eyes again, and slowly inched his way nearer to her and wrapped his arm around her shoulder in an embrace.

Venice was six hours behind China, and Ye Qianqian woke up automatically while the sky was still dark.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Shen Zhilie’s face mere inches away from hers.
Ye Qianqian was caught by surprise, and her whole body jerked back instinctively.
That small movement was enough to rouse Shen Zhilie from his sleep.
He could tell from her face that she had just woken up, and he gently released her. He gave a lazy stretch and said, “Morning.”
Ye Qianqian hurriedly scrambled out of bed. In two steps she was at the door and ran out.
Shen Zhilie was in a pretty good mood and chuckled out loud.
He could still feel her warmth on his arm, and the blanket still carried her scent. He could get used to this.
Shen Zhilie got up leisurely before putting on his slippers and walking out.
As for Ye Qianqian, she was seeking refuge inside the bathroom checking her appearance.
There was no mucus around her eyes, no drool on her chin, and no bad breath!
Phew! That was good.
Ye Qianqian released a sigh of relief. The excitement she was experiencing made her heart tickle.
They had shared a bed for the whole night. In all, it could be considered that they had spent the night in bed together.
This development was a tremendous breakthrough indeed.
Ye Qianqian began humming to herself as she starting washing up. Her joy was evident, and she couldn’t contain the smile that spread across her face.
When she emerged from the bathroom, Shen Zhilie was on the phone. Judging from his tone, he was probably talking to one of the elders in his family.
Shen Zhilie looked at Ye Qianqian, and a dazzling smile suddenly broke out on his face. He said, “Grandma, she’s here. I’ll pass her the phone.”
Ye Qianqian was bewildered. She blinked her eyes and pointed to herself as she asked, “Your grandmother?”

Wasn’t his grandmother... the same old lady who had bullied Ye Youyou horribly?
Ye Qianqian felt very unsettled, but since Shen Zhilie had already opened his mouth, she couldn’t refute the call.
She pulled a long face as the took the phone, but her tone was ingratiating as she greeted, “Hello, Grandma.”
When Old Mrs. Shen heard a young lady’s voice, her heart was undeniably happy. The grin on her face was unbearably bright and her laughter was amiable. She said, “Hey! You must be Qianqian! Oh my god! Shen Zhilie talks about you almost all the time. This is the first time I’ve seen him so serious about a girl. And here I was, worried that he might remain single for the rest of his life. Thank god for you, Qianqian!”
“Heh heh...” Ye Qianqian laughed politely, unsure of how to reply. She looked pleading at Shen Zhilie for help.
Shen Zhilie’s smile deepened, and the took the phone from her. He said, “Grandma, she’s shy. I’ll talk to you another time. We’re going for breakfast now.”
Old Mrs .Shen looked at the clock when she heard that.
It was already 12 in the afternoon! They must have been up to something!
Had this boy already taken the initiative to get the bun in the oven?
The lines on the old woman’s face deepened as her smile widened. She laughed out loud and said ambiguously, “You young people must remember to be careful. If you’ve hit all the bases with the lady, marry her and bring her home. Don’t play the field. If word gets out, it won’t be good for the lady.”
