Shen Mo, "I don't mind."
An Ci glared at him again, but it didn't have any deterrent effect. Finally, under his stubborn gaze, she surrendered. "Half and half, okay?"
Shen Mo smiled with satisfaction, "Yeah."
The bed is very big, more than enough for one more person to sleep in. Just like when we were kids, the two of us each take up half of the bed.
The night light emitted a dim glow, and the room suddenly fell silent.
An Ci habitually curled up on his side, and when he looked up, he could see the boy's superior jawline, the lines of which were sharp and clear.
Thinking of the conversation during the day, she whispered, "Shen Mo, why don't you go on the graduation trip with Song Yuan?"
Shen Mo closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "What did you call me?"
An Ci was speechless. Even though he had a fever, he still insisted on being called brother. Why did he like being called brother so much?
To satisfy her curiosity, she followed his words and called out, "Brother, why don't you go traveling together?"
He has been admitted without taking the entrance exam, so there is no need for him to be so introverted all the time.
In the dim light, Shen Mo curled his lips and said, "There's no reason. I just don't want to go."
An Ci asked, "So what are you planning to do during this time?"
Shen Mo's Adam's apple rolled, and he said thoughtfully, "I haven't thought about it yet."
An Ci sighed silently. Although he never talked about his troubles in front of her, she could always feel that he had a string that was always taut, as if something was chasing him from behind, forcing him to keep running forward and not allowing him to stop and relax for a moment.
"Brother, since you have been admitted, don't be so arrogant. Leave some room for poor students like us." She said in a cheerful tone.
Shen Mo smiled faintly and said nothing.
An Ci changed the subject abruptly, his tone lazy and a bit teasing, "So many girls gave you flowers and asked for buttons today, why didn't you give them any?"
Shen Mo said in a steady voice, "Because I want to leave that shirt for you."
An Ci uttered an "Ah" and asked in shock, "What?"
"Let me show you the luck of a top student." Shen Mo's low and hoarse voice was accompanied by a doting smile.
An Ci snorted, "Thank you."
After a pause, she smiled and said, "Then give me your school uniform. I'll pull off all the buttons and sell them at Nanyi for a high price."
"What do you think of this idea?"
Shen Mo opened his eyes, tilted his head, looked at her steadily, and said nothing.
An Ci was frightened by his stare and pulled the quilt to cover his face. "If you don't want to give it to me, forget it. Why are you staring at me?"
Shen Mo pulled the quilt down, revealing half of his face. "What gift do you want for the New Year this year?"
He changed the subject so quickly that An Ci didn't react for a moment.
She blinked, confused as to why the subject was jumping so quickly between the two of them.
