Chapter 103: Each with His Own Thoughts (Part 7)
When Tong Wanwan is not at home, the small housekeeping machines in the villa will help her prepare meals for her pets.
Tonight, she didn't cook for herself, but instead enjoyed a meal with the little ones made by the household machines.
Although the taste and texture are average and it doesn't have the flavor of home-cooked food, compared to nutritional supplements, it can be considered a good food.
After dinner, she and the four little pets stayed together for a while.
They are very well-behaved. When they see their owner is sleepy, they take the initiative to give up their fixed intimate time every night, rub their little heads against hers, and urge her to go upstairs to sleep.
but……
Feeling sleepy is one thing, but being able to fall asleep is another.
After taking a bath, Tong Wanwan changed into pajamas and lay comfortably in bed.
However, as soon as she closed her eyes and sank into darkness, she immediately opened them again.
There was a faint tendency for cold sweat to appear on the forehead.
I always feel...uncomfortable.
"Can't sleep?" System 1551 misunderstood, thinking she was brooding over Elvis. "I think that guy's going too far! Even if he's in the form of a little lion, he can't just lick me like that! He's not a real pet..."
"Huh?" Tong Wanwan blinked, picked up a soft shark doll from the side of the bed, and held it in her arms.
In fact, she didn't pay much attention to the little white lion's previous behavior for long.
After all...it was just a gentle lick from Mr. Marshal in his second form. In comparison, she cared more about the princess hug during the day and the hand-held medicine application.
It is particularly touching when a man who usually has a cold expression suddenly reveals his extremely gentle side inadvertently.
Tong Wanwan turned over as the 1551 system aroused her desire to chat.
Unconsciously stroking the slender white wrist.
The warmth that was gently touched by Mr. Marshal's fingers seemed to still linger on it.
"Yiyi, Marshal Ives's attitude towards me..." She paused, "Isn't it a bit strange?"
The implication is: Are Elvis and her too close?
1551's system froze, and his little brain was spinning frantically.
Sure enough, no matter how "straight" a person is, he or she can still detect such ambiguous actions and atmosphere.
"I understand!" It gathered its thoughts and pondered, "Maybe that guy just looks cool and aloof, but he's actually very warm and caring towards his friends."
Tong Wanwan paused, then asked doubtfully, "But Yi Yi seemed to have said that Mr. Elvis couldn't just want to be friends... or something like that?"
Did she remember it wrong?
[Uh,] the system silently lowered its voice. [That's because I used to have a prejudice against the Marshal! After observing him for so many days, I've found that he's quite good to his friends. Just like this time, when he received the message for help from the optical computer, he immediately rushed over to save people.] And, he also helped Wanwan.
In this kidnapping case, Tong Wanwan single-handedly dealt with the kidnappers. But if her mental strength hadn't suddenly awakened, allowing her to sober up from the effects of the powerful anesthetic, then... Elvis's timely arrival would have been a lifesaver they would be grateful for their entire lives.
Although, I was already very grateful for his help.
Even the 1551 system itself, when something unexpected happened, the first person it thought of was Elvis.
However, no matter how grateful you are, you still have to be on guard against wild men.
It cleverly repositioned Elvis to the same level as Lily and Davina in the host's mind: "Actually, Lily and Davina are really concerned about you. When they were video chatting with you at the medical center, they looked like they were about to cry. Their faces were covered in sweat; it seemed they'd been looking for you."
Tong Wanwan lowered her eyelids, a complex expression emerging in her eyes: "I know."
Seeing her friends looking surprised and happy, with tears in their eyes, repeatedly asking if she was safe, Tong Wanwan felt a lump in her throat and almost couldn't hold it back.
"I have to thank them very much," she breathed a sigh of relief, "Mr. Ives, Lily, and Davina."
"Yes!" System 1551 replied obediently. Its "concept substitution" was quite effective. From now on, whenever it whispered something in the host's ear, intentionally or unintentionally, the host would immediately start to view Elvis as a friend.
[So, Wanwan, you need to rest well and stay healthy. Don't overthink it, or they'll worry!]
The little system's voice was like honey melted in the sunshine, sweet and sticky, and every word was like a coquettish act: "I worry too."
[If you can't sleep, I'll play some sleep-inducing sound effects for Wanwan.]
The sound of waves lapping slowly on the beach, the sound of raindrops falling from the eaves... these are all white noises that can help you fall asleep.
Tong Wanwan nodded and did not reject Yi Yi's kindness.
As the sound of raindrops became clearer in her ears, she tried to close her eyes again.
This time, the scene before my eyes was still dark, but not completely black.
Sound is a wonderful thing that can unfold a series of hazy and beautiful pictures in your mind.
She seemed to have returned to a deserted cabin in the countryside, where she had once heard the long, lazy sound of falling rain in that summer when only the cicadas chirped.
"Tick-tick."
It is a very warm echo that falls deep into the heart.
Slowly, Tong Wanwan sank into this sweet web woven of tenderness and security.
[Have a sweet dream.] Seeing that she had fallen asleep, 1551 turned off the sleep-inducing sound effects and whispered good night to her.
Tong Wanwan slept in a perfect posture, not moving around or kicking off the covers. Her long hair spread out like soft black brocade.
Moreover, her eyebrows were relaxed, and they did not form even a single uneven frown throughout the entire evening.
After Wanwan fell asleep, the 1551 system waited for a while and found that no suspicious white creatures sneaked in. Only then did it feel relieved and switched to sleep mode.
However, the good mood in the morning shattered into pieces like broken glass the moment it woke up.
1551 saw - in the corner of the host's bedroom, there was a familiar blue cushion.
Lying on it to rest was the equally familiar white ball.
The little white lion didn't know when he sneaked in with the little sleeping nest in his mouth and curled up into a ball.
From the perspective of 1551, it looks like a snow-white round cake, and it is very round.
System: [Harm.]
This wild man is really...
“Yiyi…?”
The small system sighed loudly in her mind. Tong Wanwan rubbed her eyes and woke up, and also saw the little guy with his own bed on the floor.
Tong Wanwan: “!”
Marshal, when did you arrive?
The "Yi Yi" she blurted out just now probably wasn't heard.
The little guy still remained in a curled-up sleeping position, his silver-white fur trembling slightly and rhythmically with his breathing.
Because the little white lion tilted its head and buried its paws, Tong Wanwan did not see the little white lion suddenly twitch its ears.
Elvis took her whispers completely into his ears.
Did Wanwan just say "yiyi"? Or did he mishear it...was it "yingying"?
Are you waking up early in the morning and acting coquettishly with your doll in your arms?
The Marshal, who had never been in love and was pure and upright, couldn't help but tremble in his heart when he heard that soft and sweet voice.
The explosive update for the day of release is over~Spread the flowers!!
Starting tomorrow, I will resume my normal daily update of 4,000 words, and the update time will be changed to 6 o'clock in the morning~
This is my first time writing a book, so there are many immature parts, and I often feel that my writing is not good enough. However, everyone I met was very warm and patient, reading my book and interacting with me, giving me a lot of encouragement and support (T ^ T)
Thank you all again, you are all my little cuties!! (((*°▽°*)八(*°▽°*)))
