Chapter 78
◎What a complete deception◎
Toru Amuro picked up the tent and walked up with a calm expression.
Muan Jiaxi didn't have to wait long before she saw Amuro Toru walking towards her with a large white bag in his arms. The bag looked quite heavy, but there was no trace of emotion on his face. Instead, he looked relaxed and calm.
She still went forward and wanted to help, saying, "Is it heavy? Let me help you lift it."
Amuro Toru dodged to the side and said, "I can carry him, no need for help."
Seeing this, Mu'an Jiaxi gave up. She was just trying to show her appreciation and didn't really want to help. After all, her strength was nowhere near that of Amuro Toru, and she wasn't sure she could help much. It was good enough if she didn't make things worse.
She followed him back obediently until he put the things on the ground. Then she squatted down to unpack them. When she opened them, she saw that it was a tent, just as she expected.
She was puzzled and asked, "Where did you get this? Was it originally in the trunk?"
Amuro Toru said: "No, I called to order it when I was buying snacks, and their staff just delivered it."
A delivery employee named Yuya Kazami was driving when he suddenly sneezed. He couldn't help but rub his nose and thought to himself: Did I catch a cold?
Mu'an Jiaxi had no doubts, "Oh." He slowly opened the outer packaging, took out the equipment inside, and placed them on the ground one by one.
After assembling the tent last time, Toru Amuro gained some experience, so this time he didn't need Muan Jiaxi's help, and the tent was set up in no time.
Muan Jiaxi placed the tent cover pad at the entrance and exit of the tent and used it as a foot mat. When everything was ready, she had nothing to do, so she sat side by side with Amuro Toru in front of the tent, looking up at the sky, waiting for the meteor shower to come.
During this time, there were children running around with toys in their hands, laughing and playing.
This scene is a bit noisy, but it really is a time of peace and tranquility.
Mu'an Jiaxi sat quietly for a while, acting like a lady for a little while, but she couldn't sit still anymore and stood up to grab the big bag of snacks in the tent.
He took out a bag of potato chips, opened it, and started eating it one by one. In the meantime, he didn't want to neglect Amuro Toru, so he interacted with him from time to time, sometimes handing him a potato chip, and sometimes saying something to him.
Toru Amuro never refuses anything. As long as it is handed to him, he will take a bite. If it is not handed to him, he will not take it himself.
Mu'an Jiaxi was looking for a topic to talk about, and asked curiously, "Has the Black Fire issue been resolved? How is it going?"
Amuro Toru said: "He's been put back in prison. Don't worry, he won't be able to escape this time."
Mu An Jia Xi was relieved now. If he escaped again, his heart would not be able to bear it. He said, "That's good."
Amuro whispered, "After this incident, we have completely upgraded and renovated the prison. He will definitely not be able to escape."
Mu'an Jiaxi thought of something again and pointed at the tent behind him and said, "Aren't we going back tonight?" The subject changed a little too quickly.
Amuro Toru also reacted quickly, pinched her cheek jokingly and said, "How are you going to watch the meteor shower when you go back?"
She said, "I mean after watching the meteor shower."
Amuro said, "That should be around two or three o'clock. Don't you know you can't drive while tired? It's very dangerous for a driver to not get enough sleep."
Mu An Jiaxi was confused by his words, and after thinking about it, he felt that what he said was quite right. Seeing this, he had no choice but to say, "Okay then."
She knew he did it on purpose, but she didn't say anything and just stayed.
The main reason was the situation on the scene. There were so many people there, and I would be alone when I got home, so I might as well stay and join in the fun. It was only one night anyway.
Amuro Toru smiled, and reaching out his hand, which was rare, he took the initiative to grab a potato chip, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and commented seriously, "It's delicious."
The moment of waiting for the meteor shower to come is boring. Mu An Jiaxi can only find fun in the boredom, find topics to talk about, eat, and try his best to make himself appear less bored.
We waited until 2 a.m. when the meteor shower finally arrived. I don’t know who was the first to exclaim, “Look! A meteor shower!”
This immediately attracted everyone's attention, and everyone looked up. In the distant sky, many small white dots appeared, quickly passing from left to right like rain, and gradually became more and more.
Everyone stood up and watched from the edge of the mountain top. Mu'an Jiaxi also joined in with surprise, standing outside the crowd and looking up at the scene.
Amuro Toru was obviously not interested in this. He slowly stood up and followed her, standing next to her. However, his eyes were always looking at the woman next to him, and he didn't even look at the meteor shower in the sky.
Mu'an Jiaxi, on the contrary, was almost overwhelmed. His eyes were wide open, and he kept looking back and forth at the meteor shower passing by in the sky, exclaiming in amazement again and again.
Because his attention was focused on the meteor shower, he had no time to look at Toru Amuro standing next to him.
She kept chattering, sharing with Amuro Toru what she saw, "Look, this scene is so beautiful. It's my first time seeing a meteor shower." Although she didn't turn her head while talking to him, Mu An Jiaxi knew he was listening.
Amuro Toru finally turned his attention to the meteor shower, glanced at it perfunctorily, then turned his gaze back and said with a smile on his face, "Yeah, it's beautiful."
His words sounded like he was agreeing with her, saying that the meteor shower was beautiful, but looking at his eyes, she wasn't sure if he meant something else.
Mu'an Jiaxi didn't notice, but continued, "This trip is really worth it."
She slowly turned her head, met his gaze, and said seriously, "Thank you."
Amuro Toru smiled and ruffled her hair and said, "Why are you being so polite to me?"
She smiled without saying anything, then turned her head, clasped her fingers together in front of her chest, lowered her head and made a wish.
Amuro Toru saw her movements and understood what she was doing. As she started, it was as if a mechanism had been turned on, and everyone else at the scene began to make wishes, asking for safety, a boyfriend, happiness, and so on.
Toru Amuro was one of the few who did not move. He did not believe in these things. It was better to ask for something than to make such an illusory wish.
He'll take matters into his own hands and get what he wants, including her.
However, he was still quite curious about her wish. He waited quietly for her to open her eyes and put down her hands before asking, "What wish did you make?"
Mu'an Jiaxi shook his head mysteriously and said playfully, "You want to know? I promised you that." He deliberately left the question in suspense, took a deep breath, and then said slowly, "I won't tell you."
Amuro Toru saw her expression and had already guessed the answer. He knew what she was going to say and said with a smile, "You can't even tell me."
Mu An Jia Xi said seriously, "If I say it out loud, it won't work, so I can't say it."
Amuro Toru said: "Okay, then let's leave it as a little suspense."
Meteor showers are only beautiful for a moment, and they are gone in a flash before the sky returns to darkness again.
As the event ended, everyone dispersed in twos and threes and returned to their tents. They didn't show any intention of leaving. After all, it was already early morning, so who would leave?
Mu'an Jiaxi stood there for a while and then turned back.
Because it was almost dawn, everyone was very sleepy. Only a few people were chatting and drinking outside the tents, while most people went into the tents to rest.
Mu'an Jiaxi also yawned, his eyes instantly misting up, and he said lazily, "I'm so sleepy."
The afternoon nap hadn't disrupted her sleep quality at all. Mu'an Jiaxi crawled into the tent first, took off his shoes and left them outside, then rolled over to the corner and said, "Mr. Amuro, please bear with me and sleep in the same tent tonight."
Amuro Toru sat at the entrance of the tent with his back to her, taking off his shoes and saying, "It's okay, I don't mind."
For some reason, Mu'an Jiaxi suddenly felt sleepy. His head gradually became drowsy and he was not very awake. He lay down and covered himself with the quilt, and whispered softly, "I sleep well and I promise I won't disturb you." As he spoke, his eyes slowly closed.
Toru Amuro had already taken off his shoes, turned over and entered the tent, zipped up the exit of the tent to isolate it from the outside world, then walked to the other side to get a blanket and spread it out, but did not lie down immediately.
Instead, he turned around and walked to the other side, gently picked up Mu'an Jiaxi, walked over, and slowly and carefully put her down, moving her from that end to his side. He then considerately adjusted the quilt on her body, and then walked around her and lay down on her side.
During the whole process, the person was unaware and slept very soundly, not realizing that he had been moved.
After Amuro Toru covered himself with a blanket, he turned sideways and gently lifted Muan Jiaxi's head, put his arm under her head, and the other hand on her waist, holding her in his arms.
Looking at the soft and fragrant person in his arms, he closed his eyes contentedly and fell asleep.
next day
Mu'an Jiaxi was awakened by a loud noise. Her brain was still not working and she had no idea what had happened or where she was. She just felt like she was tied up by something, tightly binding her and unable to move.
She closed her eyes and rested for a while, then her brain slowly started to work. When she opened her eyes again, she finally understood what was going on, but she was instantly confused again, wondering why we were hugging each other.
He blinked at the handsome, dark face in front of him, and his brain started to freeze again.
She clearly remembered that she and he had slept at the other end of the bed before going to bed, each of them sleeping separately, but how come they woke up hugging each other? What was going on?
I thought to myself: Could it be that I rolled over by myself? No way, my sleeping posture is not that bad.
Perhaps it was the person in his arms who woke Amuro Toru. His eyelids moved, and then he slowly opened his eyes. He saw Muan Jiaxi, who was sitting there in his arms, not knowing what to think. He lowered his head and rubbed her hair. Perhaps because she had just woken up, his voice was lazy and hoarse. Lazy Sheep said, "Good morning."
Mu'an Jiaxi finally came back to his senses, looked up at him with a puzzled expression, "How did I get here yesterday? I remember I slept at the other end."
Amuro Toru seemed very dissatisfied with their current distance. He tightened his grip on her waist and held her in his arms again, holding her close to him. Only then was he satisfied. He said slowly, "You rolled over here by yourself. Don't you remember?"
Mu'an Jiaxi tilted his head, his mind full of question marks, "Ah, I rolled here by myself." He said in disbelief: "You are fooling me."
Amuro Toru closed his eyes again and said lazily, "You rolled over here by yourself. I was about to fall asleep when you suddenly rolled over from one end to the other. No matter how hard I pushed you, I wouldn't move you away. I had no choice but to hold you in my arms to prevent you from bumping into anything."
Mu Anjiaxi's doubtful voice resurfaced, "Is that so?"
Amuro Toru rubbed her hair and said, "What good will it do me if I lie to you?"
