And unlike in the comics, when you're using your lap as a pillow, you can't only see half the sky when you look up.
He was so thin when we first met, it seems he hasn't gained much weight since then... Wen Mo kept complaining to himself as he lay there, too stiff to move, his body as rigid as a stone.
Xia Lian didn't care about that much. She reached out her small hand and gently stroked his cheek, brushing all the stray hairs on his forehead to the side.
"Where did you learn this trick? From TV?" Wen Mo asked casually.
The girl's gaze was calm as she gently shook her head. "My mother used to do the same thing..."
After suffering grievances at school, or when she felt very tired, the thing she wanted to do most was to lie in her mother's arms.
Even though her mother wasn't in good health at the time, she would still smile and let Xia Lian rest her head on her lap every time. She smelled wonderful, like the scent that every mother has. Just smelling that scent was enough to make her fall asleep peacefully.
In my memory, my mother was always that gentle look, looking at her daughter who was resting on her lap with eyes full of love. She loved to sing, especially when she was coaxing Xia Lian to sleep, she would gently sing a song whose name I didn't know.
The girl's eyes were lost in thought, as if she were immersed in memories of the past. Her dark, beautiful eyes trembled slightly as she unconsciously hummed the song from her memory.
"The dark sky hangs low, accompanied by bright stars..."
A faint song sang softly from her lips.
Wen Mo was stunned, his eyes somewhat dazed.
But he didn't disturb Xia Lian's singing. He just watched her lost in memories and listened to the familiar song, which brought him a sense of peace.
"The insects fly, the insects fly, who are you thinking of..."
Xia Lian can't sing, and her singing even sounds a bit clumsy, but you can feel the deep emotions through that clumsy singing.
Wen Mo's body relaxed a little, and drowsiness gradually enveloped his consciousness, especially after getting closer, a girl's unique fragrance gradually calmed him down.
Until she completely relaxed, she drifted off to sleep within minutes.
Xia Lian's eyes reflected Wen Mo's face. She didn't say anything, just stared at him intently.
"Wenmo?" she called softly.
Wen Mo had his eyes closed and was clearly fast asleep.
Seeing that he had fallen into a deep sleep, Xia Lian gently leaned down and rubbed against Wen Mo's cheek like a cat seeking comfort.
...
I don't know how much time had passed, but when I woke up I only felt some sticky stuff on my face.
When I opened my eyes, it was still the same pavilion.
"What the hell..."
Wen Mo, still a little groggy from just waking up, wiped the stuff off his face and took a closer sniff; it had a strange smell.
Looking up, Xia Lian, who had been awake, had somehow fallen asleep, with fine drool dripping from the corner of her mouth onto his face.
Wen Mo had never seen Xia Lian drool before, but perhaps because she had fallen asleep while sitting today, she was drooling, which was quite rare for her.
Seeing this, Wen Mo smiled.
She's so cute.
Looking at Xia Lian's sleeping face, I couldn't bear to disturb her.
Straightening up, Wen Mo first stretched, then casually took out his phone from his pocket, rubbed his eyes which were now more alert, and glanced at the time on the screen.
2:35 PM.
Yes, I'm late.
"Holy crap! How come they're both asleep?!"
