It's all thanks to Lu Yibei's many good deeds.
That's how Ji Qingqian didn't completely misunderstand him as a pervert.
The female warrior made him lie down and carefully examined the bridge of his nose.
In reality, how could Ji Qingqian possibly tell whether Lu Yibei was injured...?
As the saying goes, concern leads to confusion; even if you don't understand something, you still need to take a second look to put your mind at ease.
She couldn't tell how serious Lu Yibei's nose injury was, but instead discovered other problems.
You have eye bags…
"Yeah, I've been pretty busy lately."
"Work?"
"right."
"Take a break."
"I only update 4,000 words a day. If I take a break, those readers who already complain that my posts are too short will completely abandon me."
"...4K, you still have the nerve to say you're busy?"
Lu Yibei was speechless and choked with emotion. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Kaven."
Ji Qingqian also stopped speaking. After a while, she reached out and gently rubbed Lu Yibei's temples.
"I'm sorry... I can't help with this."
"I can't help you at all, but with your massage, I feel like I have ten thousand days' worth of energy," Lu Yibei said.
Ji Qingqian: "...Is that so?"
Lu Yibei changed the subject:
"But then again, I have other things to do today, so let's put the daily quota aside for now..."
Ji Qingqian: ...
Lu Yibei took a shower.
The icy tap water made him feel both exhilarated and thoroughly calmed down.
When he stepped outside, rubbing his hair with a towel, he saw Ji Qingqian lying on a straw mat on the ground, scrolling through her phone.
Lu Yibei laughed and scolded, "Go sleep on the bed, don't try to take the floor from me."
Ji Qingqian said, "That's not fair. You were the one who got to enjoy the floor last time. Why do you always get the good things? This time it's my turn."
Lu Yibei said, "I still have to drive later. I can't sleep in bed. What if I run out of energy halfway through the drive?"
Ji Qingqian retorted, "You used to sleep in bed, so how could you not be able to sleep?"
Lu Yibei: "The thought of you taking away such a good thing as sleeping on the floor makes me so upset that I can't sleep."
Ji Qingqian thought for a moment:
"All the good things have come your way, and I'm so upset I can't sleep."
Lu Yibei showed no mercy: "If you can't sleep, go sleep in the car later. I'm the driver, listen to me."
Unable to argue with Lu Yibei, Ji Qingqian reluctantly climbed into the more comfortable bed.
Lu Yibei lay down on the straw mat on the floor and set an alarm on his phone:
“It’s almost nine o’clock now. I’ll set my alarm for two o’clock. We can sleep for five hours, which is enough.”
Ji Qingqian didn't stay against the wall; she rolled to the edge of the bed.
This brings us closer to Lu Yibei on the bamboo mat.
"Yes, you called me."
"OK."
“…I might have trouble sleeping,” Ji Qingqian said.
After starting school, her daily routine became much more regular, but she still usually didn't fall asleep until 11 or 12 o'clock.
Nine o'clock is still a bit too early.
"Even if you can't sleep, close your eyes and rest for a while," Lu Yibei said.
Ji Qingqian softly agreed.
Lu Yibei turned off the lights.
The room was plunged into complete darkness.
Because it was still early, Ji Qingqian could still hear cars driving by on the road outside the house…
She obediently closed her eyes, but did not feel sleepy.
“…Abei.”
Ji Qingqian called out softly.
There was a difference in elevation between the places where she and Lu Yibei slept, but they were practically touching.
She could hear the boy's gentle breathing below.
Ji Qingqian wanted to ask Lu Yibei about his plans for National Day.
This year, the National Day holiday is combined with the Mid-Autumn Festival, resulting in an eight-day holiday.
She remembered that Abei had said before that he was going back to Jiahe.
Jiahe Chaocheng.
Go visit my grandparents.
But she didn't ask clearly whether he would stay in Chaocheng for all eight days, or whether he had reserved any time for her...
"Um…"
Lu Yibei responded very softly; he had already fallen asleep.
His eye bags proved that he hadn't slept much these past two days...
Quite busy.
But he still tried his best to make time to accompany her to the beach to watch the sunrise.
Ji Qingqian felt a sweet warmth in her heart.
She didn't ask any more questions.
There are still several days until National Day, and Ah Bei's answer won't disappoint her.
Ji Qingqian walked along the edge of the bed, letting her arms hang down.
Then her fingertips hooked onto the back of the boy's hand. With just a slight touch, Ji Qingqian felt extremely happy and at ease.
She parted her peach-colored lips slightly and yawned softly.
Suddenly, I felt a little sleepy.
...
"We just captured him—"
The moment the alarm rang, Lu Yibei pressed the button on his phone and then swiped to turn it off.
Three seconds after he finished doing all that, he suddenly opened his eyes.
I almost fell asleep.
Is it almost 2 o'clock...?
Lu Yibei allowed some extra time, to be precise, it should be 1:40.
He noticed something on his chest.
By the dim light of his phone, he saw that Ji Qingqian's arm was hanging down from the bed and landed right on him.
Looking at Qingqian, half of her body was sleeping outside the bed.
Lu Yibei chuckled to himself, "Is the bed still too small?"
She was probably disturbed by the alarm clock, as she was frowning at the moment, but after a while, her brows relaxed again.
Lu Yibei didn't call her immediately, but gently pushed her pale hand away and then opened the weather forecast.
It still shows that it was sunny all day and night on the 26th.
Lu Yibei got up, pulled the curtains open a little, and looked up at the night sky.
