“Does Xi’er want to see?”
Jiang Xiao asked, gazing deeply into Song Qiuyu’s eyes.
“……”
Song Qiuyu forced herself to remain calm.
She turned her face away to look at Jiang Li and the others who were active in front of the camera, holding her breath slightly.
Fortunately, only she and Jiang Xiao were here right now.
Otherwise, she really wouldn’t know what to do.
Maybe she should hurry and confirm it before anyone else came back!
“Since you’ve put it that way!”
She pursed her lips tightly and turned her face, nearly pressing her lips directly against his, which were only inches away.
“Ugh.. “
Her pupils trembled violently. Even though they had already done even more embarrassing things, the fact that their lips were about to touch still made her feel flustered.
“Then show me.”
Her body, wrapped up like a giant rice dumpling, was difficult to move. To avoid the predicament of falling and being unable to get up, she had to look away immediately.
“Mhm.”
Jiang Xiao nodded, picking up his Phone and turning it on.
“Mm…”
Hearing the sound of her own sleep-talking, Song Qiuyu was startled. She. closed her eyes, almost unable to catch her breath.
Her hands tightened. Listening to the audio, she struggled to turn her head again. On Jiang Xiao’s Phone Screen, a recorded video was playing.
In the video, she was slumped on the table, sleeping soundly. Her eyelashes trembled slightly with her breathing, and her cherry-colored lips opened and closed as she mumbled indistinctly in her sleep.
Most of it was unclear, yet Song Qiuyu could clearly distinguish her own words.
Within a few breaths, she caught three keywords: “Jiang Xiao,” “Tiger’s Den,” and “Don’t.”
Frankly, these three keywords were a huge leap apart. Jiang Xiao might not necessarily understand the connection between them.
Even so, she couldn’t sit still for another second.
“Awoo!”
Frantic and exasperated, Song Qiuyu opened her mouth, intending to recklessly snatch away the Phone playing the video with her teeth.
“You can’t bite this!”
Jiang Xiao quickly moved the Phone out of reach.
Song Qiuyu lunged at nothing.
But it wasn’t over.
She saw Jiang Xiao turn off the video himself. He. grabbed her collar and stared into her eyes without blinking.
Song Qiuyu’s gaze darted around.
She couldn’t handle this distance. Her small hands tightened, and she simply held her breath, her cheeks turning flush red.
“Xi’er, actually…”
Jiang Xiao lowered his face, looking deeper into her eyes.
Then, seeming very nervous, he took a deep breath before speaking: “I’ve also dreamed of you. I’ve dreamed of the you who is Xi’er, and I’ve dreamed of the you who is Little Fallen Leaf. In The Dream, we…”
Hearing this, Song Qiuyu’s heart pounded wildly. She. was on the verge of oxygen deprivation and didn’t dare listen to the rest.
“We also did the kind of things you dreamed of, and more than once. The time you helped me wash before was also because I dreamed of you.”
“……”
Catching a glimpse of Jiang Xiao’s moving Adam’s apple out of the corner of her eye, Song Qiuyu sucked in a breath, her brain instantly stalling.
“That’s really unfair, Xi’er. I saw how embarrassed you were, so I gathered the courage to tell you this.”
Jiang Xiao sighed.
“Stop talking.”
Song Qiuyu’s voice was trembling.
Was this kid really being this direct? If it were a normal girl today, a slap to the face would be a light reaction!
Although his intentions sounded good, this was way too direct!
Who taught him this?
“But, Xi’er, you were the one who said that if you like someone, having that kind of dream isn’t strange or something to be ashamed of, especially when the other person is the same as you.”
Jiang Xiao said: “But you seem to have forgotten, so I specially told you so that you wouldn’t be too shy about it.”
“?” So I was the one who taught him?
“Yes, you taught me.”
“Are you reading my mind?”
“Because what you’re thinking right now is written clearly on your face, Xi’er.”
“……”
Song Qiuyu tried her best to remain expressionless.
“Hmph.. “
Seeing her efforts, Jiang Xiao raised an eyebrow, finding it hard to keep from laughing.
“You already know I was intentionally teasing you back then. Can’t you just throw everything I taught you into the trash?”
Song Qiuyu pleaded.
She felt completely numb.
It was one thing to have that kind of dream, and another to see Jiang Xiao right when she opened her eyes—but why did she have to hear Jiang Xiao say such provocative things?
He dares to say it now, but I didn’t even dare think about it on the Bed!
“No!”
Jiang Xiao’s refusal was decisive: “And you know, I have a great memory.”
“Don’t use The Most Powerful Brain for stuff like this! Forget it for me!”
Song Qiuyu frowned and stared fiercely into Jiang Xiao’s eyes.
“Xi’er, if you keep staring like that…”
Jiang Xiao was about to lose his self-control.
Locking eyes between lovers was even more stirring than kissing or doing “that kind of thing.”
Xi’er, oh Xi’er, was she so flustered that she forgot even this, actually sending him an invitation like this?
Just as Song Qiuyu was about to say something, Xie Zhuran’s face suddenly appeared beside them: “What are you two doing?”
As soon as those words came out, both Song Qiuyu and Jiang Xiao were stunned. They. immediately separated with perfect coordination and sat upright in their seats.
“Is there something that needs to be said at such close range? Aren’t you afraid of becoming cross-eyed?”
Xie Zhuran shook his head, feeling a bit amused.
“Ahem!”
Song Qiuyu clenched her fists and turned her head, pretending to be calm. She. took a deep breath and calmed down slightly.
The winter night wind was great; it was cold enough and particularly helpful for clearing the mind.
“It’s nothing. I. just played a joke on Jiang Xiao and said I had Pang Hu in my eye. Then this kid actually believed me and came to look! Haha!”
“……”
Jiang Xiao didn’t know what to say.
Those were definitely not the words of a clear-headed person.
What kind of person would believe that?
“I knew it!”
Xie Zhuran believed it.
“See, I told you not to overthink it. You. almost made me waver just now.”
As he spoke, he looked at the Fat Boy behind him.
At this moment, the Fat Boy’s expression was complicated.
It was complicated because that scene earlier looked like Jiang Xiao would have forcefully kissed Song Qiuyu if they had arrived a step later.
However, Xie Zhuran had interrupted, so no matter how much he thought about it, it was in vain.
Was it really because his own mind was too dirty? Was it because he usually watched too many “resources” and his head was full of trash that he had such a misconception?
“Lao Lin, what’s wrong with your face?”
Xie Zhuran tilted his head. He. noticed the expression on Lin An’s face behind the Fat Boy was very strange and couldn’t help but wonder.
“I just suddenly thought of something happy.”
Lin An couldn’t hold it in anymore. He. let out two laughs and then tried his best to restrain himself.
Xie Zhuran then glanced at Xia Qi, who also had a strange expression.
He frowned and said: “Did you think of it too?”
“Yeah, right, I thought of it too.”
Xia Qi did her best to purse her lips.
“Mhm.. “
Xie Zhuran rubbed his chin, looking back and forth between the Couple thoughtfully. The. more he looked, the weirder it felt. The. more he looked, the more bizarre it became.
Slowly, it became a bit hair-raising.
He calmed himself and pondered for a brief moment before trying to speak: “Is the thing you thought of… the same thing?”
