“Then, then I’ll head back first!”
Anyway, leaving like this shouldn’t be a problem; An Qing hadn’t made any moves.
Ning Wanqiu stood up, just about to leave, when suddenly An Yu’s voice came from behind her.
“Not staying to sleep together?”
Ning Wanqiu froze entirely, her stepping foot stiffening, staying in place without moving.
She really asked!
What about the promised vigilance? How could she really invite her to sleep together?!
Ning Wanqiu turned around, looking at the innocent-faced An Yu, and helplessly spoke softly, “You… what exactly are you thinking?”
In the end, the time they had known each other wasn’t that long.
Accompanying her to sleep last night was one thing, but how come today she was at it again?
Last time was different; there were many reasons, many causes.
An Yu was drunk, Cheng Shimumeng locked the door, and Ning Wanqiu wasn’t at ease leaving An Yu alone, so it naturally turned out that way.
Moreover, they were at Cheng Shimumeng’s home, so no problem.
But this time was different; now there were no reasons at all, and she was in An Yu’s home, An Yu’s room.
How could Ning Wanqiu not care?
…
“So, it’s really not okay?”
An Yu tilted her head; although she was the one asking, from the very beginning, she hadn’t thought Ning Wanqiu would agree.
Although Ning Wanqiu was her big pillow, pulling her to sleep together was really hard.
However, she had already brought her home; not asking would be a bit of a loss.
What if she agreed?
“Sigh…”
Ning Wanqiu helplessly sighed, but the blush on her ears was constantly spreading.
Why put on such a disappointed look!
This… was too strange.
Ning Wanqiu pursed her lips and returned to An Yu’s side.
For some reason, although An Yu’s face had no expression, she just sensed disappointment from it.
Maybe it was just an illusion.
But Ning Wanqiu felt moved because of it.
She raised her hand, gently stroking An Yu’s head.
An Yu also slowly closed her eyes, rubbing against Ning Wanqiu’s palm.
Looking at the obediently closed-eyed An Yu, Ning Wanqiu’s face turned a bit red.
She kept chanting in her heart…
This is comforting An Yu, this is comforting An Yu, don’t overthink!
The two just stayed like that without speaking, until Ning Wanqiu’s movements stopped, and An Yu slowly opened her eyes.
She lifted her head, expressionlessly looking at Ning Wanqiu who had just withdrawn her hand, “Still not okay?”
“Uh…”
Looking at such an An Yu, Ning Wanqiu even felt a surge of hesitation in her heart.
But in the end, she still shook her head.
“Next time… when everyone gathers together next time…”
Ning Wanqiu’s voice grew smaller and smaller, but An Yu heard it very clearly.
An Yu’s expression relaxed, the corner of her mouth curving into an invisible arc, “Mm, then, it’s a deal.”
She heard it; Ning Wanqiu promised her next time.
So, there would definitely be a next time.
Because Ning Wanqiu wouldn’t lie to her.
“Mm… take care of yourself…”
She turned around, and in the instant she turned back, her face became even more flushed.
Ning Wanqiu felt she was getting stranger and stranger.
Clearly, An Yu’s cute little face had absolutely no expression.
But she always felt that An Yu was expectant, even joyful.
Was that her fantasy, or was it really so?
Ning Wanqiu couldn’t figure it out; the only thing she could understand was that she had become strange because of contacting An Yu.
“See you next time, Ning Wanqiu.”
Ning Wanqiu had already reached the door, but the voice came from not far behind her.
However, she didn’t turn her head, instead facing the door like that, lightly parting her cherry lips, “Mm, see you next time, An Yu.”
Ning Wanqiu smiled as she opened the room door, walked out, and then slowly closed it.
The instant she left An Yu’s room, she felt herself let out a breath of relief.
An Yu actually saw her off; was she that reluctant…
Click—
“Eh?”
Just as she was thinking this, suddenly a door-locking sound came from behind Ning Wanqiu, followed by the sound of An Yu running back to the bed.
“Ah…”
So it was just to lock the door?!
Ning Wanqiu lowered her head with a red face, looking like she had no face to see the elders back home.
Really, she had overthought again.
Ning Wanqiu helplessly shook her head; she couldn’t just walk out blushing like this.
What if she ran into An family people; she wouldn’t be able to explain.
“Whew…”
Ning Wanqiu subconsciously did deep breathing, and after her heartbeat returned to normal, she slowly left.
Leaving An Yu’s room and coming to the living room, although still in darkness, she immediately saw An Qing bent over, seemingly picking something up.
And similarly, An Qing saw her.
…
An Qing stood up, her eyes coldly staring at Ning Wanqiu, still holding that broken hair clip in her hand.
Ning Wanqiu entered An Yu’s room right in front of her, but she didn’t even have a reason to stop her.
In the end, she could only silently search for the remaining half of the hair clip in the darkness alone.
If she kept like this, stubbornly choosing revenge, she would always be alone, always watching various people appear by An Yu’s side.
And she would never be able to insert herself.
But unfortunately, An Qing couldn’t realize this.
She was now completely drawn by the Ning Wanqiu in front of her, unable to think of anything else.
At first, she only saw in class An Yu running into this woman’s arms.
Then, running outside to nap together…
After that, every day they stuck together.
But no matter what, those were all things happening at school.
An Qing didn’t plan to do anything at school, so she turned a blind eye.
Back home, do what needed to be done.
But now it was different.
Ning Wanqiu had come to the home.
Why exactly had they become so intimate?
What secret did this person have?
…
An Qing furrowed her brows, her heartbeat starting to accelerate constantly.
In front, Ning Wanqiu similarly furrowed her brows, but quickly relaxed.
She silently walked to An Qing’s side, politely nodded, and then planned to leave directly.
After all, this was An Yu’s family, and in reality, she hadn’t done anything.
Basic courtesy still needed to be maintained.
However, as she passed by, she heard the An Qing beside her suddenly speak.
That voice was extremely cold, still trembling lightly.
“Don’t be deceived by that guy.”
This seemed like just a kind reminder, but it made Ning Wanqiu a bit unhappy.
Even without naming names, Ning Wanqiu could guess who An Qing was referring to.
“Trust is mutual.”
Ning Wanqiu spoke coldly, “I will believe the person I want to believe.”
