“You mean Jiang Yu rolled and tumbled down the ski slope and turned into a giant snowball?”
After answering the phone, Song Qiuyu was so startled that she tried to stand up from the kotatsu, but because she was wrapped too tightly in the blanket, she failed to stand up and instead fell next to the heater with a thud.
Ignoring her own fall, she hurriedly asked about Jiang Yu’s condition.
Only after Aider informed her that Jiang Yu was fine, with only minor scrapes, and had already been taken back to the Hot Spring Hotel by Sang Tian, did she breathe a slight sigh of relief.
Without her needing to say anything, the others who were skiing soon realized the absence of Jiang Yu and Sang Tian. Guessing that something had likely happened, they began to feel distracted.
Song Qiuyu took the opportunity to halt the filming.
By the time everyone returned to the Hot Spring Hotel, Jiang Yu was lying on the Bed with a face full of self-blame.
Because the filming was stopped, the pressure on Jiang Yu was naturally not small.
Seeing this, Jiang Li wanted to offer a few words of comfort. However, she was not good at comforting people; she was better at being cold-faced and lecturing people with school rules than offering solace.
“Why are you making such a long face? It’s not your fault the filming was halted. You didn’t do it on purpose!”
Xie Zhuran spoke up first: “It’s all the fault of the timing, the fault of that stone that tripped you, it’s all…”
Before Xie Zhuran could finish, Jiang Li glared at him, and he tactfully shut his mouth.
“I’m sorry.”
Jiang Yu’s voice was weak.
Song Qiuyu’s lips twitched slightly. If it were her, the pressure would probably be immense.
While she was still thinking about how to coax him, Sang Tian had already stroked Jiang Yu’s head and said with a gentle smile, “Just be careful next time. This was just a minor mistake. Where you fall, you’ll get back up tomorrow!”
“Okay!”
Jiang Yu nodded.
Seeing this, Song Qiuyu was slightly stunned and then smiled, saying to Jiang Yu, “That’s right, Sang Tian is right. In any case, rest for today. If you don’t rest well, the number of patients here might increase by one tomorrow!”
“Then are we still filming the Night Scene portion originally scheduled for tonight?”
Jiang Xiao stepped forward to show some concern for his Younger Brother, then turned to look at Song Qiuyu and asked.
“Of course we’re filming. We can just make up Jiang Yu’s part tomorrow. It’s a small issue.”
Song Qiuyu smiled.
They were going to film anyway, and now that Jiang Yu had fallen, it was even more important to proceed. Otherwise, it would put pressure on Jiang Yu, making him feel like it was all because of him.
However, the incident with Jiang Yu served as a wake-up call for them.
They needed to be even more cautious and careful.
When it came time to film the Night Scene, everyone began filming with 200% attention.
The Ski Resort at night was colder than during the day. Even though Song Qiuyu was still huddled by the kotatsu, she could still feel a bit of a chill when the night wind swept past her.
Jiang Xiao’s plot scenes were the first to finish.
As soon as he finished, he rushed back to the kotatsu. Just like in the morning and afternoon, he helped the patient prepare hot water to take her medicine.
“Actually, I can do it myself.”
Song Qiuyu exhaled a puff of hot air.
“When you used to take care of me, if I said that, would you have stopped?”
Jiang Xiao glanced at her twice.
“No.”
Song Qiuyu shook her head decisively.
“Then that’s exactly it. So, I won’t either.”
Jiang Xiao laughed brightly.
Song Qiuyu hurriedly looked away, clenched her fist, and coughed. After calming her mood, she adopted a tone as if she were acting spoiled, “I want to take my medicine!”
“Princess, please take your medicine!”
Jiang Xiao cooperatively helped her open the medicine packet and held the cup of water mixed with the granules to her lips.
Those short words, however, set off an unquenchable wave inside Song Qiuyu. She pursed her lips, lowered her head, and obediently sipped the water.
After finishing the medicine, sleepiness washed over her. She covered her mouth with her small Hand and let out a yawn before slumped onto the table. “Jiang Xiao, I’m so sleepy. I want to sleep for a bit. Help me…”
“Mm, I’ll keep an eye on things for you. Sleep peacefully!”
“Mm.”
Song Qiuyu closed her eyes, filled with peace. Heavy sleepiness dragged her thoughts down, and she soon entered The Dream.
In The Dream, she had just finished soaking in the Hot Spring and returned to the Room. To keep her “steamed buns” intact, she secretly picked up Female Underwear to wear. For aesthetics, she simply changed into a full set.
Then she lay on the Bed, playing with the Red String Bell that Xia Qi had given her, tying it around her left ankle while browsing the Shoujo Manga that Xia Qi had recommended to her.
Ever since she confessed those things, she and Xia Qi had become very close best friends.
Just as she was reading about the intimacy between the male and female leads and her heart was inevitably stirring, Jiang Xiao appeared out of nowhere and took away her manga without a word!
Then, her even more petite self miraculously pinned Jiang Xiao onto the Bed, sitting on his waist.
ï¼»Why did you take my book!ï¼½
ï¼»Stop just looking at those kinds of books. Try it with me. Xi’er wants to do what’s in the book too, right?ï¼½
ï¼»I do not!ï¼½
Jiang Xiao gave a cold laugh, easily flipped over to pin her beneath him instead, and then his large Hand reached behind her.
One by one, one by one, one by one… her slightly bulging skin was exposed.
ï¼»No, you’re not an Azure Dragon, you can’t!ï¼½
ï¼»Nothing ventured, nothing gained!ï¼½
Consequently, the bells rang all night. She really ended up in a state of Pregnancy because of Jiang Xiao and was forced into a shotgun wedding. During the Short-term Holiday of their Freshman Year, they became a married couple at lightning speed.
At the wedding, her missing Father returned, her mother who was working away returned, and everyone sent their best wishes to her and Jiang Xiao. That day, she felt like the happiest girl in the world.
However, on the wedding night, she turned back into a boy without warning, and the child in her belly… vanished along with it.
“Ugh!”
Song Qiuyu sat up with a start like someone waking from the dead, breaking out in a cold sweat. Her back was completely drenched.
With lingering fear, she went to wipe the sweat from her face, but a warm, large Hand was faster and wiped it for her.
Instantly, Song Qiuyu froze, remembering that someone had been with her before she fell asleep.
“Did you have a nightmare?” the person who had been accompanying her asked.
“I… I guess so.”
How could Song Qiuyu dare to look at the person beside her? She bit her lip guiltily, and after a while, she mustered the courage to turn her head and glance at him.
“You’ve only been asleep for a few minutes, yet you’re covered in sweat. It seems that The Dream was quite terrifying!”
As he spoke, Jiang Xiao’s eyes were full of heartache. He picked up a few Paper Napkins to help wipe her sweat again, frowning. “Since you’re sweating, we need to dry it quickly, or your illness might get worse.”
“Ugh…”
Meeting Jiang Xiao’s gentle gaze, Song Qiuyu felt flustered for a long time.
Thinking of what had happened in The Dream, her nose felt slightly sore. Feeling quite helpless, she instinctively dodged his Hand.
Jiang Xiao was stunned.
“I can do it myself!”
Sensing a change in Jiang Xiao’s mood, Song Qiuyu’s brow furrowed, and her heart rate suddenly quickened.
Realizing that her reaction seemed to be a major problem, she hurriedly reached out to take the Paper and wiped the sweat herself.
“Filming should be almost over, right?”
She tried to change the subject, her breathing becoming a bit rapid. Her heart was full of unease regarding the end of the nightmare.
“Soon,” Jiang Xiao said in a low voice, observing her strange reaction.
Hearing this, Song Qiuyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. For now, she didn’t want to see Jiang Xiao’s face or hear Jiang Xiao’s voice.
“Xi’er, I took some nice shots while you were sleeping. Do you want to see?”
At this moment, Jiang Xiao refused to let her off, intentionally leaning closer and putting his lips near her ear.
His warm lips brushed against her earlobe in an ambiguous way.
Song Qiuyu’s whole body stiffened, her heart filled with horror.
Could it be…
I talked in my sleep?
