After a flash marriage, I found out that my husband was a wealthy man

Jiang Qiyue took a deep breath, walked around the end of the bed and came to the bed, lifted up the quilt and sat down. The mattress was so soft that it seemed to sink in when she sat down.

She didn't understand that only very small apartments would buy 1.5-inch beds. There was no 1.8-inch bed in such a large bedroom. Every time they slept together, they would inevitably bump into each other.

Jiang Qiyue glanced at Gu Heng and saw that he had no intention of lying down. After hesitating for a while, he simply lay down and fell asleep. Time passed quickly.

"Mr. Gu, do you want to turn off the lights tonight?"

Gu Heng put down his phone and looked over, "Why, can't you turn off the light?"

Jiang Qiyue said: "That's not true. It is a custom in my hometown that you cannot turn off the lights on New Year's Eve. You need to turn on every light in the house." This was the first time Gu Heng heard that people should sleep with lights on on New Year's Eve.

"Anything to say?"

Jiang Qiyue recalled that when she was a child, she was also very curious about turning on the lights to sleep on New Year's Eve, and then her grandmother told her a story.

"Mr. Gu, do you know that in ancient times, there was a ferocious monster called the Nian Beast. Every year on the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month, it would come out, eat human flesh and kill living creatures. Later, the villagers learned that the Nian Beast was afraid of red and fire, so they Every year on New Year's Eve, people put on festive red clothes, put up red couplets, and set off fireworks to drive away the Nian beast, and this is called "New Year." At night, people are still worried about the Nian beast attacking in the middle of the night, so they light firecrackers at home Put candles on to brightly illuminate the home, and the whole family gathers together to watch the New Year. Not turning off the lights on New Year’s Eve means driving away the beasts of the year and avoiding disasters.”

Jiang Qiyue said that she missed her grandma more and more. During the Chinese New Year when she was a child, her grandma would make her new clothes and delicious food. She had not celebrated the Chinese New Year with her grandma for three years.

This was the first time Gu Heng heard the story about New Year's Eve. When he looked at Jiang Qiyue, he found that she was in a daze with her eyes lowered and not saying a word.

"What's wrong? Not happy?"

Jiang Qiyue was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then smiled and shook his head, "I'm not unhappy."

Gu Heng thought for a while and then said: "We won't turn off the lights to sleep tonight."

"Huh?" Jiang Qiyue looked at Gu Heng with some confusion, "Why?"

Gu Heng said: "I also want to experience the feeling of turning on the lights to celebrate the New Year."

Jiang Qiyue: "..."

After Gu Heng lay down, he did not turn off the light, as if he had made up his mind to turn on the light and sleep.

They were used to sleeping with the lights off, but when they suddenly turned on the lights, they couldn't fall asleep quickly.

Jiang Qiyue turned her back to Gu Heng and looked at the window in front of her. The curtains were half open, and through the window she could see red lanterns hanging on the trees outside.

Sleep how to do?
I don’t know if Gu Heng is asleep?
Jiang Qiyue has been in this position for more than an hour. It's fine when she's asleep, but she feels a little uncomfortable when she's awake.

After holding on for a while, Jiang Qiyue couldn't bear it anymore and began to turn over slightly. As soon as he turned around, he saw Gu Heng looking at him with his eyes open, and he was startled.

"Mr. Gu, are you still awake?"

Gu Heng said: "Can't sleep."

Jiang Qiyue was a little embarrassed. If he had known it, he would not have mentioned the story of Nian Beast, otherwise he would not have turned on the light to sleep. As a result, neither of them could fall asleep.

"Why don't you turn off the lights."

"Then I'll turn it off."

"Ah."

Just when Gu Hengnen saw that Jiang Qiyue was not asleep, mostly because the lights were on, he raised his arms and turned off the bedroom lights.

The bedroom that was bright just now suddenly became pitch black, and you couldn't see your fingers.

Jiang Qiyue's nerves, which were tense just now, immediately relaxed after the lights went out. As soon as she closed her eyes, she felt someone approaching.

Good night spicy!
