Boom—
These words struck Xia Che like a bolt from the blue, exploding in his mind.
For a moment, Xia Che lost control of his facial expressions, vaguely feeling as if his features were twitching.
"What's the meaning?"
After a long while, Xia Che finally came to his senses, his throat becoming dry involuntarily. During this time, Chu Yuying did not make a sound to disturb him, as if she knew what Xia Che was thinking, and quietly waited for him to come back to his senses.
"Pfft."
Suddenly, Chu Yuying chuckled softly, and then her laughter grew louder and louder, as if she had been holding it in for a long time and was finally releasing it at this moment.
"What are you laughing at?"
Xia Che's heart started racing involuntarily. In that brief silence, Xia Che had the illusion for the first time that he was running naked in front of Chu Yuying, as if the other party knew everything about him.
But... how could Chu Yuying possibly know that she could return to the real world after completing the mission?
That's impossible, isn't it?
So, Chu Yuying must be referring to something else?
"Just teasing you. You bully me every day, but I didn't expect you to be such a coward?"
Chu Yuying burst into laughter, laughing until tears streamed down her face.
She laughed heartily, her voice like the clinking of silver bells, yet not jarring, like a gentle breeze, not too fast, and the bells not too agitated.
A beautiful woman is like a beautiful voice, and a beautiful voice is like a beautiful woman.
"Seriously... so you stayed up all night and dragged me out of bed to chat just to tease me? Are you crazy?"
Xia Che breathed a sigh of relief. Chu Yuying probably wasn't lying. He still felt that his mission couldn't possibly be discovered by anyone, because such a thing defied common sense. Even if the smartest person in the world came, he couldn't possibly know that such a bizarre thing existed.
Imagine someone randomly grabs a passerby from the street and tells them that the world they live in isn't real, but rather the world of a movie or TV show. Do you think that passerby would just turn around and send that person to a mental hospital?
—Everyone is living a good life, and you suddenly say that this world is not real. If you are not sick, then who is?
"Who told you to ignore me? All you do is sleep, sleep, sleep. Am I not pretty? You're in a room with such a beautiful woman, and all you can think about is sleeping?"
Chu Yuying spat in annoyance, "Do you know how outrageous your behavior is? It's easy for girls to doubt their own charm, okay?"
"You're crazy..."
Xia Che rolled his eyes wildly.
The little devil's thought process is indeed beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. Without exception, anyone who tries to keep up with the little devil's thought process will become a madman.
"Then come here."
"No way, a man and a woman sleeping in the same bed? Do you think I'd throw away my reputation?"
"And nobody knows..."
"I know."
Are you someone else?
"Am I not?"
"You fucking..."
Chu Yuying rolled her eyes, then steeled herself and started rolling around on the bed: "I don't care! When I stay at my relatives' houses, I always sleep with my aunt or my maternal aunt. I can't sleep alone now!"
Oh shit……
She really didn't believe she couldn't succeed tonight.
This was a rare opportunity, and Chu Yuying knew that after tonight, she wouldn't have another chance like it.
Even if it means cheating, I must succeed tonight!
Why can't I sleep?
Xia Che was completely baffled. "Haven't you been sleeping alone ever since you moved in? And... how old are you? Why are you throwing a tantrum?"
She's a grown woman by all accounts. Although Xia Che can't see her now, he can still hear her rolling around on the bed, making the fine Simmons mattress creak and groan from her movements.
What's going on here?
"I'm just throwing a tantrum! No... I'm not throwing a tantrum, I'm fighting against injustice!"
Chu Yuying, her hair disheveled, suddenly stopped, then sat down and looked at Xia Che: "I have indeed developed the habit of needing someone to be with me when I sleep. Since moving here, I've had my teddy bear with me, but it's in my room now, and I can't reach it. How am I supposed to sleep?"
"As for you, I trust your character, so what are you hesitating for? What's wrong with moving your blanket over and sleeping next to me? We're not sleeping in the same bed, honestly... a grown man like you, so indecisive!"
"If you don't come over, I'll sneak into your bed while you're asleep!"
"It's all the same anyway, I definitely won't be able to sleep by myself."
Chu Yuying's arguments became increasingly reasonable, and she accused Xia Che with righteous indignation.
It's almost as if it directly states the phrase "more beastly than beasts is worse than beasts."
"If I don't go over there, are you going to make a scene all night?"
Xia Che sighed. He really didn't know how to deal with female brats, especially the kind who throw tantrums.
"uh-huh."
Chu Yuying smiled shyly, covered her face with her hands, and twisted around: "Really... I'm not as good as you say."
"I wasn't complimenting you..."
Xia Che was exhausted. He picked up his phone and glanced at the time. He realized it was almost 1 a.m. If he dragged it out any longer, he might have to stay up all night.
He believed in the little devil's ability to cause trouble; if Chu Yuying wanted to do it, he would definitely not be able to sleep tonight.
That's enough...
"Go a little further."
Xia Che quickly rolled up the blanket, hugged it to his arms, and walked over with an annoyed look, saying, "Go to the innermost part, I'll sleep on the outermost part. We shouldn't have any contact, you understand?"
"I understand, I understand."
Seeing that her wicked scheme had finally succeeded, Chu Yuying smiled so much that her eyes narrowed.
This is a huge breakthrough.
If someone is willing to sleep in the same bed with you today, you can sleep in the same blanket tomorrow, but what about the day after tomorrow?
Hmph...
How could a little blondie possibly beat me!
Chu Yuying boldly imagined what would happen next, her face turning bright red with embarrassment. Fortunately, the lights in the room were off, so Xia Che couldn't see her.
"Come here."
Chu Yuying rolled herself up in the blanket and moved further inside. She knew that Xia Che had already made a big concession, and she couldn't go any further, or it would backfire. So she retreated to the innermost part of the bed, leaving enough space for Xia Che to lie down and keep a distance from Chu Yuying.
"That's more like it... No, you've already gone too far, why should I be pleased?"
Xia Che shook his head, feeling that he had stayed up too late and his mind was in a mess. He threw the blanket on the bed, lay down, and decided not to take off his clothes. He would just sleep in his pajamas.
Let's get through tonight quickly, and tomorrow we'll pretend nothing happened.
A man and a woman alone in a room, and the door lock is broken—such a ridiculously cliché scenario—how could Xia Che possibly complain?
Fortunately, Chu Yuying must have been tired after all that fussing, because she didn't make a sound for a long time.
