Chapter 1103: Iceberg Doctor 52

In the following days, Tang Wan stayed at Li Sitong’s house most of the time. Occasionally, when she needed to change clothes or take something, she would return to her own place briefly. After about a week, her injured foot had fully recovered, and logically she should have moved back already—but neither of them mentioned it.

As if it had become something naturally accepted.

It wasn’t until more than half a month later that Li Sitong returned home past eleven at night due to a major surgery.

Tang Wan had been waiting for him on the sofa.

When the door opened, she immediately lifted her tired eyes. The moment she saw him, her expression lit up instantly with undisguised joy.

“Tongtong, you’re back!”

She stood up and ran straight into his arms.

Li Sitong instinctively caught her, stabilizing her body.

“Why aren’t you asleep yet?” he asked.

“I wanted to wait for you so we could sleep together,” she replied without hesitation.

Li Sitong raised his brows slightly, a faint smile forming. “Sleep together?”

Tang Wan froze for a second. That interpretation was a little too direct.

“I… I didn’t mean that…” she stammered deliberately.

Seeing her reaction, Li Sitong chuckled softly, then tightened his arms around her. “But I do.”

Tang Wan’s eyes widened slightly, clearly startled, but also a bit expectant.

Lowering his voice near her ear, he asked, “So… are you coming with me tonight?”

“Y-yes…” she nodded quickly.

He smiled, satisfied, and carried her into the master bedroom.

After placing her on the bed, he went to the bathroom with his pajamas.

When he returned ten minutes later, he was already fresh from the shower. He stood by the bed for a moment, looking at Tang Wan who was half-hidden under the blanket, only her eyes visible as they quietly followed him.

He lifted the blanket and lay down beside her, turning off the air conditioner.

The room immediately quieted down, leaving only their breathing.

Li Sitong reached out and pulled her into his arms.

“Wan Wan.”

“Mm.”

He chuckled softly, his voice low. “I had surgery all day. I’m very tired, so don’t expect anything tonight.”

After a pause, he added casually, “But after a good rest… that might not be the case.”

Tang Wan made a small disappointed sound.

In the darkness, Li Sitong’s lips curved slightly.

She said she didn’t mean it—but her reaction was far too honest.

He didn’t expose her. Instead, he lowered his head and kissed her lightly before holding her close.

Soon, his breathing steadied.

Tang Wan also gradually relaxed. Knowing how exhausting his job was, she didn’t disturb him further and soon fell asleep as well.

But the next morning, while she was still asleep, she suddenly felt a heavy pressure on her body, as if something was gently pinning her down.
