Chapter 35 Do you want to sleep in my bed?
Whenever Ye Bai has free time, he will read for a while before going to bed.
Han Jianye came out of the shower. He bent his head gently to wipe his wet short hair. Water droplets slid from his scalp to his firm chin. His narrow eyes were slightly raised, and his eyes inadvertently lingered on Ye Bai's face as he concentrated on reading.
It was the first time he saw a grown man so fond of reading, so he walked over, stood beside Ye Bai's bed, and took the book from his hand, "Can you really remember it by reading it this way?"
Ye Bai was a little surprised when the book was taken away. He followed the book with his eyes and said, "I just read it occasionally."
Han Jianye looked at Ye Bai with a lazy expression, a smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, "You can't remember it by rote, do you want me to interact with you?"
When Ye Bai heard this, his brows slightly frowned and he thought to himself: Forget it, he definitely has no good intentions.
"ah!?"
"That's settled." Han Jianye answered for him, and then sat down naturally beside Ye Bai's bed, placed the mind-reading book on his lap, and looked directly at Ye Bai, "To be honest, I have a work partner, and we have a very good understanding. Now he has retired early due to health reasons."
Han Jianye's words reminded Ye Bai of Deputy Captain Zhou who was hospitalized due to cerebral hemorrhage.
Ye Bai didn't say anything, but just listened to him quietly.
"Do you know how I feel when a work partner I got along with suddenly resigns?" Han Jianye stared at him closely. "The bed you are sleeping on now is his."
Ye Bai expressed his thoughts: "If a good work partner of mine suddenly left, I would feel very lost and heavy. Having a work partner who understands me is like my empty soul suddenly being redeemed. Because of this work partner, I feel happy at work even if I have to work overtime every day."
"Yes, that's about right." Han Jianye agreed with Ye Bai.
After Zhou Mi left, he felt really heavy-hearted, so he seldom returned to the dormitory.
But he understands that many people are just passers-by in life, and life must go on.
So he gradually got used to being alone.
Ye Bai looked at him directly, "So you plan to train a new work partner?"
This sentence made Han Jianye's eyes sink slightly, and a hint of smile flashed in his deep eyes, "No need."
"Because you don't want to experience that feeling of loss again?"
Because of Ye Bai's words, Han Jianye's eyes flashed with melancholy, but it was soon replaced by curiosity. He stared at Ye Bai and asked, "Are you reading my mind?"
"Am I right?" Ye Bai asked.
Han Jianye stared at him quietly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said softly: "A little bit."
Ye Bai chuckled. His smile was like the clear stream in the mountains, calm and lively. He said, "Even a little bit is fine."
After all, Han Jianye is usually not so serious in private, but would suddenly make a joke.
Therefore, Han Jianye's attitude tonight did make Ye Bai feel a little uncomfortable.
Han Jianye could see that Ye Bai was not the kind of person who was eager for quick success and instant benefits. What he needed was someone who worked hard and had pure thoughts.
"Then can you read out what I'm thinking now?" Han Jianye asked him.
Ye Bai paused and answered with a sentence that made Han Jianye laugh and cry: "Do you want to sleep in my bed?"
(ω)…
Han Jianye was rarely amused, so he asked with a smile, "Why do you say that suddenly?"
"Then why are you sitting on my bed now?" Ye Bai asked back, because he really couldn't think of any other reason.
"Do I want to sleep on your bed just by sitting on it?" Han Jianye didn't quite understand what Ye Bai meant, but wanted to tease him, so he put the book on his legs aside and lay directly on Ye Bai's pillow with an expression that said "you guessed it right".
Ye Bai immediately sat up and said, "I guessed right, you really want to sleep in my bed."
ヽ('⌒′メ)ノ
That's why I deliberately tried to find topics to get close to him.
Han Jianye felt that Ye Bai was like a piece of fleece with its hair blown up, so he followed his words and said, "Don't you know how to read minds? How come you only know now that I want to occupy your bed?"
"I just remembered that your sudden change means there is only one possibility. You may want to change beds with me..."
Before Ye Bai could finish his words, Han Jianye pulled him down and they lay on the bed together.
Han Jianye turned his head and looked at him, teasing: "I think you have read all the books on mind reading into your stomach."
After hearing what he said, Ye Bai suddenly sat up from the bed, with a hint of displeasure in his tone: "Captain Han, go back to sleep quickly."
Han Jianye is the kind of person who won't leave the more you chase him away. He said, "Then you can sleep in my bed."
"Are you a three-year-old child?" Ye Bai asked helplessly.
“It doesn’t matter, you can call me Han San Sui.”
Ye Bai was speechless for a moment. He looked at Han Jianye's bed. He was familiar with his bed and didn't want to sleep there. Besides, he didn't smoke, so Han Jianye's bed must smell of cigarettes.
Then he looked down at Han Jianye and found that he had fallen asleep in his bed.
Then, Ye Bai raised his finger and gently pushed his arm, trying to wake him up, "Captain Han..."
But Han Jianye didn't react at all, and seemed to have fallen asleep.
Ye Bai felt that Han Jianye must be pretending. He didn't believe that he fell asleep in such a short time.
Then he whispered in his ear again to try to wake him up, "Captain Han... Captain Han..."
( _ )…
However, apart from Han Jianye's light breathing, there was no response.
Ye Bai sighed helplessly. He looked at Han Jianye's bed again with a frown.
He was not used to sleeping in someone else's bed, and the physical and psychological discomfort always caused him insomnia.
In the end, he gave Han Jianye a dissatisfied look, and his handsome face looked exceptionally calm under the light.
Ye Bai curled up on the bed feeling aggrieved, with reluctance written all over his face.
Half of the bed was occupied, and even the pillow was firmly held under Han Jianye's head.
With nothing else to do, Ye Bai could only pick up a few pieces of clothing, fold them up and use them as a makeshift pillow, forcing himself to fall asleep.
He knew in his heart that he was too easy to trust Han Jianye.
Even though he had suffered losses at his hands several times before, every time Han Jianye said something casually, Ye Bai couldn't help but believe him.
But the situation this time was different from the past. In the past, he could only defeat him verbally, but this time, Han Jianye actually slept in his bed.
Ye Bai felt that Han Jianye's behavior was extremely childish, which was in sharp contrast to Captain Yan's gentle, friendly and easy-going personality.
If it were Captain Yan, he would not sleep in his bed.
He couldn't help but compare them silently in his heart, feeling helpless and amused about Han Jianye's behavior.
He could only pray in his heart that a new colleague would come to replace him soon so that he could return to the Qiyang Branch.
