After Jiang Cheng returned home, Luo Xiaoli's door was still locked. He put the cake on the dining table, washed up, and went back to his room.
He picked up a book written by Junichi Watanabe from the table, flipped through a few pages, found the spot where he had last read it, and quietly began to read.
As dusk deepened and night approached, Jiang Cheng watched, and his eyes began to sting.
He blinked a few times, smoothed his tousled bangs, and feeling a little sleepy, he got out of bed, turned off the room light, and prepared to go to sleep.
Close the book.
I chose a more comfortable position.
Close your eyes.
A wave of drowsiness washed over him, quickly taking over his mind and making his consciousness increasingly blurred. Jiang Cheng fell asleep.
An hour has passed...
Two hours have passed...
With a "click," Luo Xiaoli's door opened, the sound especially crisp in the quiet night.
But he was fast asleep and didn't hear it, still having a peaceful dream.
The girl who came out of the room had messy hair and her camisole nightgown was also disheveled, with some wrinkles from being pressed down. Her eyes were lifeless, and she turned her head to stare at Jiang Cheng's closed room door.
Barefoot, she slowly stepped forward.
Push the door open.
Luo Xiaoli first opened the door a crack, her breathing was very light and her movements were very gentle. In the pitch black, she walked into the door and then closed it.
Jiang Cheng was completely unaware, sleeping soundly.
The hazy moonlight streamed through the window, casting a silvery glow. His features were faintly visible as he lay on the bed, his handsome face framed by his arms hanging above his head and his bangs swept askew.
His chest rose and fell, his breathing even.
The moment Luo Xiaoli saw Jiang Cheng, all the resentment in her heart vanished. She quietly moved to her brother's side and couldn't help but stare intently at his face.
Human desires are endless. At first, she only wanted to stay by his side, but now she wants to possess him and even imprison him.
The two can then be together for all eternity.
Even if it means becoming a corpse in a room in the Lanjing Huanjiang residential area.
Aren't our souls also embracing each other invisibly?
The unbridled night began to fuel her burgeoning desires, making Luo Xiaoli's thoughts grow ever more vibrant.
In a daze, she reached out a cold hand, wanting to touch Jiang Cheng's face, but then quickly withdrew it.
And so it goes, over and over again.
Until she lost control of her mind, in a moment of hesitation, her slender, delicate hand made a circle, and as if possessed, she tried to strangle the other person's neck.
A little devil in her mind, wearing a black headband and pointed boots, kept tempting her in a hoarse voice: "Yes, that's how you do it, strangle him, suffocate him, and then your brother will belong to you forever."
"forever"
This word fascinated Luo Xiaoli.
Wrap her arms around her brother's neck and let him disappear into the dark night. All problems will be solved, and the word "forever" will be engraved on their souls, leaving a deep imprint. Xiao Li will no longer have to worry about him being taken away by someone else.
As she thought about this, her gaze became unfocused.
She ignored everything in reality; in the colorless silent film, only herself kneeling by the bed and Jiang Cheng, peacefully in her dream, remained.
Just when she was about to make an irreparable mistake.
Jiang Cheng suddenly made a movement, lowering his arm to scratch the itch on his thigh. He still kept his eyes closed and did not wake up, but this movement suddenly made Luo Xiaoli's mind clear.
What is she doing?
Luo Xiaoli's eyes, hidden beneath her disheveled hair, instantly turned to fear. Her lips tightened, she clenched her fists, and lowered her outstretched hand.
He lowered his head in regret, then quickly raised his gaze again, reluctant to look at Jiang Cheng.
If I don't take a few more glances, once I leave, there really won't be another chance...
A tender look flashed in her eyes as she gazed at her lover, whom she missed every moment.
······
"elder brother······"
In the dimly lit room, Xiao Li called out softly.
She got up, climbed onto the bed, and lay down next to Jiang Cheng.
She pressed her head against his chest, listening quietly to his heartbeat.
In my sleep.
Hearing this barely perceptible sound, he suddenly opened his sleepy eyes.
I could feel the temperature next to me, and smell the familiar scent.
Jiang Cheng knew that Luo Xiaoli had come to his room.
He remained silent for a while.
As if sensing something, Xiao Li beside him seemed to be overflowing with sadness.
······
"You're not angry anymore?"
He asked after a while.
"Hmm... I'm not angry anymore. I'm scared to sleep alone. Will you sleep with me?"
"good."
Jiang Cheng responded calmly and did not stop her from insisting on sleeping on top of him.
······
A gentle breeze blew softly under the moonlight.
The sky was filled with drifting clouds hidden in the darkness of night.
In Lanjing, Jiang Cheng, who is excessively harassed by his yandere younger sister, actually has personality problems.
He was revered as a young prodigy and a scientific scientist of unparalleled talent.
However, even geniuses have flaws.
Jiangcheng's flaw is his insensitivity to emotions.
When he opened his heart to Ke Bing, Luo Xiaoli, and even Zhao Xuerou, expressing his sincere love.
His only actions were procrastination, avoidance, and silence.
There was no clear rejection or acceptance.
Just like Jiang Cheng was a simp in his past life, this is a distorted view of emotions, but not accepting or delaying it is also distorted.
Did he ask himself how he felt? Maybe he did.
The answer I received was, "I don't know."
Cowardice in relationships is a common problem for countless people.
A brave person can stand in front of a school building with thousands of students and loudly proclaim, "Sakurajima Mai, I love you!"
You can kneel down and propose at a concert with tens of thousands of people in attendance.
You can shout your sincere feelings to the whole world.
Cowards only hesitate.
......
"You didn't eat dinner, you must be hungry."
"A little."
I bought you a cake.
"Um······"
In the brightly lit room, Jiang Cheng reached out and wiped the cream stains from Luo Xiaoli's lips.
He rested his cheek on his other hand, squinting his eyes as if he were sleepy.
The strawberry cake was very sweet.
Luo Xiaoli took two bites and felt the soft cream on the tip of her tongue.
He looked up and glanced at Jiangcheng.
She put the cake aside, then suddenly stood up and hugged him.
He kissed her.
