As Dai Lixing spoke, his gaze drifted unconsciously to the sofa, as if that were where he was supposed to go.
'What the hell? How could I even think that?!'
Seeing his expression, Ji Xiaosong was reminded of his previous visits to her little cottage and couldn't help but let out a small laugh.
"Marshal, I'm not really going to make you sleep on the sofa."
She pointed to the new room next to the master bedroom. "Here, that room was prepared for Sui An. Since you want to stay and protect us, you can stay there for the time being."
Hearing this, Dai Lixing's heart skipped a beat. He looked at the room Ji Xiaosong was pointing to in disbelief, his gaze lingering on the closed door for a long time.
"Is it… really okay?"
He heard the slight tremble in his own voice.
'Ji Xiaosong is letting me stay in Ji Sui'an's room. Does this mean she's willing to give me a chance to get closer?'
He had been anxious when she asked him to stay and prune the wisteria earlier.
