I have no idea how I fell asleep.
All I know is that because we played too hard last night, I slept in the same bed with Pei Xuwan and Shi Yanli.
Fortunately, the bed was large enough to accommodate the three of us.
Otherwise, the area of the quilt alone would not be enough to take care of all the people.
At dawn, Shi Yanli was the first to wake up.
Of course, as a member of the human race, he was indeed the first to wake up.
Because Pei Xuwan doesn't need to sleep.
But every night, in order to coax me, He would pretend to be a good child who wanted to fall asleep, and then He would hold me completely in His arms.
This alone is not enough, He also likes to squeeze me into His open arms.
He used this almost self-harming method to soothe me to sleep, and he didn't care even though my body was often bitten and bleeding.
Just like tonight, He would still rock my back like He did when we were little, humming a weird, tuneless tune.
When Shi Yanli wakes up, he always becomes dazed for a while.
He would stare at the pale ceiling with his eyes wide open as usual, looking at the lamp hanging from the ceiling, forcing his eyes open until tears flowed out of his eyes, and then he would be willing to blink to relieve the uncomfortable feeling.
If he suddenly woke up from a dream in the middle of the night, Shi Yanli would see the ceiling filled with the starry sky lights that his sister would light up every night before going to bed.
The starry sky projected by the starlight is gorgeous and colorful, and it rotates with changes in temperature.
When Shi Yanli sees these when he wakes up, he will feel at peace.
Because he knew his lover was lying in his arms, and her gentle breathing was as real as the sound of his ears. He would lean on his sister's shoulder and continue to sleep soundly.
But today is different.
The pattern on the ceiling had changed, and his sister was no longer by his side.
Shi Yanli opened his sore eyes wide, he could not see the dimness of the light.
I could only watch as one clear flower after another appeared on the surface of the ceiling.
Something exploded repeatedly, splattering tiny pieces of flesh and blood onto his face. The cold, bloody smell of the early morning suddenly filled his mouth, causing Shi Yanli to cough violently.
His throat suddenly felt dry and unbearable, and Shi Yanli closed his eyes. He didn't dare to make any loud noises, and he tiptoed throughout, not even turning on the lights.
The only light in the room came from a thin sliver of sunlight filtering through the gaps in the curtains. He was afraid that this slight movement would disturb his sister. No one knew his sister, his lover, better than he did.
My sister is very grumpy when she wakes up and has neurasthenia. Once she is startled awake by noise, it is difficult for her to fall asleep again.
Shi Yanli swallowed the unbearable coughs, looked at his sister's peaceful sleeping face, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately, my sister was not woken up by me.
But it still woke up Pei Xuwan, who was wrapping his sister completely in his arms.
Actually, the word "wrapped" isn't quite right. Shi Yanli felt as if his eyes were covered by a cloud of snow. Darkness flowed past, and when his vision finally cleared up, he saw Pei Xuwan's blurry face.
He didn't say anything, and he was too lazy to say anything. There was no need to get so angry about such a small movement.
Pei Xuwan pondered over it, and used his snake tail to hold the baby in his arms tightly for a moment. After feeling the baby's warm breath, he finally felt "alive" as if it were real.
For some reason, the baby unconsciously spit out the sensitive arm. After gently wiping the blood from the baby's mouth with the corner of her clothes, Pei Xuwan put the arm, which had been bitten and scarred, back into the baby's mouth.
Comfort is indispensable.
To ensure the baby's sleep, he patted the baby's back and slowed down the rocking frequency.
"Don't wake her."
Shi Yanli didn't say anything. His hand, which was about to say hello, paused for a moment and then dropped down dejectedly.
Yes, he shouldn't make any noise and disturb his sister's sleep.
Shi Yanli left and the lights in the living room were turned on.
The light in the living room has always been the brightest in the house. Even though it is daytime now, the light is really dazzling.
For daily breakfast, Shi Yanli would make a thick order book.
If my sister wanted to eat something, she would stick a small red flower in the small grid in front of each dish the night before.
But yesterday, my sister didn’t have time to do these…
Shi Yanli was thinking.
He had already started to tie the apron for himself. He had always had a good grasp of his sister's taste, so he was already adept at such a simple task as what to make for her breakfast.

The sound insulation in my home has always been very good, which is why I chose this place.
It is quiet enough and warm enough, which suits my style.
Even the loud chopping noises on the chopping board when preparing dishes in the kitchen could not wake me up from my sound sleep in the bedroom.
In my dream, I returned to the familiar land of gentleness.
I returned to the home I was most familiar with.
Everything at home seems to have not changed at all in my memory.
There are endless spiral staircases and various graffiti hanging on the walls.
As long as there is a sound when I pass by, the stairs will immediately become my favorite slide paradise.
Soak in a pool of warm water and curl up into your body with the waves.
I was surrounded by sticky inner walls, and any collision would only make me stop and fall into a deeper sleep.
When I woke up slowly, I found myself lying in Pei Xuwan's arms.
She still maintained her familiar female body, with long, fragrant hair falling on my face.
Itchy and warm.
Seeing me awake, He uncomfortably turned away His fiery gaze. He reached out and gently stroked my hair. As the strands flowed through His fingers, I felt a warmth on my forehead.
"Hey, baby, you're awake. How did you sleep last night? Tell me, did you dream about mommy?"
His voice is sweet and melodious, and he always uses the tone of coaxing a child.
I yawned and uncrossed my arms. I tugged at a strand of His hair nonchalantly and shook my head.
"What's wrong, baby? Um... let me guess, are you going to get up? Then let me take care of you."
I still didn't say anything. Pei Xuwan was enjoying himself and having a great time. He had already turned around and opened the wardrobe, ready to choose suitable clothes for me.
I glanced at the thin nightgown on Him, and then I remembered that it was another piece of clothing I had casually discarded at some point.
A skirt that doesn't fit her size would look weird on Pei Xuwan, making her figure look even taller.
I was too lazy to pay attention to Pei Xuwan's rummaging through the drawers. I just touched the cold bed next to me and was shocked to find that Shi Yanli was no longer around.
My phone lit up, and a constant stream of pop-up messages signaled something urgent. I immediately unlocked my phone and quickly scanned the history, then casually asked Pei Xuwan, who was still choosing clothes.
"Where did my brother go? Why did he stay so quiet..."
Pei Xuwan had already picked out two suitable outfits. He was holding a pink heart-shaped hanger and was about to gesture towards me, but when he heard what I said, he simply placed the clothes on the bed, crossed his arms, and sighed. His voice was low, and it sounded like he was venting his anger to himself.
"What an utterly untreatable child."
I smiled and immediately asked, "Is Mommy jealous?"
"How could I be jealous of that creature? Just give me a kiss, baby."
Hearing my question, Pei Xuwan, who had been emitting a dangerous aura, instantly subsided. She smiled softly again, switching back to her gentle mommy mode, nuzzling towards me affectionately.
I usually like to keep some scented sachets in my closet to diffuse the smell. Now, even Pei Xuwan was stained with that faint fragrance.
He pressed himself very close to me, and the flower emerging from the crack of his cheek was staring straight at me, as if he would not give up unless I kissed him.
I pushed away Pei Xuwan's attempt to cling to me, pulled the curved snake tail at the top by myself, and started browsing the messages on my phone again.
Most of the news in the morning came from good friends and Shi Yanli.
I had already guessed why my brother was not with me, so I started reading the dozens of messages he sent me.
While browsing, Shi Yanli showed no signs of stopping sending messages.
Seeing that the amount of information was piling up, I yawned and browsed more hastily.
The content is nothing more than considering my health. It's best to stay away from Pei Xuwan. Otherwise, I will end up like when I was a child, sleeping all day.
But Shi Yanli looked at me, and Pei Xuwan and I were similar. So those tragic consequences were of no use to me.
My fingers moved close to the phone keyboard and I began to reply to Shi Yanli.
But Pei Xuwan's fiery gaze had not yet left.
Seeing that I ignored him for a long time, he came closer to me and rubbed my cheeks softly with the fragrance of powder.
His eyesight must be very good, so it is easy for him to see the contents of the mobile phone screen.
So Pei Xuwan raised his eyebrows, and he naturally saw the full chat history between me and Shi Yanli.
The bouquet drooped on the lit phone screen, leaving a bright water mark as it was dragged.
I saw Pei Xuwan holding up her belly again, and the opened petals scattered everywhere. She opened her third pair of eyes and spoke softly.
"Baby, why don't you add mom's contact information..."
His voice was filled with grievance, as if he had been deeply shocked by something.
I locked my phone, waved it towards Him, and immediately asked, "Is this really necessary? Do I need these electronic gadgets to communicate with my mom?"
…
Pei Xuwan was stunned by my question, and he, who had just been holding his belly, quickly deflated again.
He leaned softly on my shoulder, stroked my soft hair, and kissed my cheek from time to time.
