Chapter 21 Qi Ying said: "Miss Shi and I may not be suitable."
Qi Ying immediately said, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid it's not convenient."
Shi Yu blinked, looked at Qi Ying deeply, pursed his lips and smiled, and said to her: "Look at you, I was just kidding you, how could I really stay here with you."
She came over and tugged at the corner of Qi Ying's clothes, smiling with her eyebrows curved: "Aying, I have to go back to school in the next few days. I'm afraid we won't be able to see each other for many days. Can we have dinner together when I come back?"
Qi Ying nodded and asked her, "Are you still in school?"
"I'm doing my graduation internship. I'm back to school to finish my thesis." Shi Yu said, "I studied ballet and was admitted to the most famous drama academy in the country. This time I went back, mainly to meet with my classmates and have dinner, and then I'll come back." She smiled and said, "I'll bring you some local specialties, Aying?"
Qi Ying shook her head slightly: "I appreciate your kindness, but you don't need to bring a gift. It's getting late, you should go home early."
Shi Yu looked at her seriously, their eyes met, Qi Ying could even see her own reflection in her black pupils. After a while, Shi Yu took two steps back, picked up her small bag and threw it behind her, and said to her: "Okay, then I'll go home first, we'll keep in touch on WeChat."
Watching Shi Yu leave, Qi Ying felt inexplicably relieved.
It's hard to describe the feeling. Qi Ying just feels that Shi Yu is a bit inexplicably strong, like a princess who has been spoiled since childhood and wants everyone to follow her wishes, even the person she likes.
This made Qi Ying think of Xing Xiaochu. There would probably be no other girl as well-behaved as her except in the gaming world.
Qi Ying pinched the palm of his hand with his thumb, then walked to the door and locked it.
The lock closed with a click, and Qi Ying felt relieved.
She turned off all the lights on the first floor and went upstairs. She simply washed up in the room, but couldn't fall asleep lying on the bed.
After tossing and turning until past one in the morning, Qi Ying finally got up from the bed.
The phone was turned on, emitting a faint and dazzling blue light. Qi Ying looked at the icon on the phone's desktop and clicked on it without any hesitation. In the blink of an eye, she appeared in her own bedroom in the game.
Qi Ying looked at herself sitting on the bed, covered with a thin summer quilt and still wearing her pajamas. She threw back the quilt and got out of bed, opened the door and stood in the quiet and dark living room. She was stunned for a long time before turning her head to Xing Xiaochu's room next to her.
“Click—”
The sound of the door opening was very obvious in the silent night. Qi Ying pushed the door open carefully, and in the dim moonlight outside the window, he saw Xing Xiaochu sleeping with his back to the door.
The air conditioner was humming and blowing cold air. Xing Xiaochu seemed to be restless when she was sleeping. Most of the quilt had fallen to the ground, and the rest only barely covered her lower abdomen. Her pink lace panties were exposed in front of Qi Ying.
Under the moonlight, two long white legs were casually folded together. The cloth was a little tight where they were tied, and the white flesh was squeezed out from the gap. Qi Ying's heart suddenly jumped when he saw it. He moved his eyes away uncomfortably, walked over, picked up the quilt and gently covered her with it.
When Qi Ying covered the child with the quilt, he saw a little orange thing stretching its arms, arching its back, squinting one eye at Qi Ying, and yawning loudly.
Qi Ying frowned. Why was this child still sleeping with a cat in his arms?
The little kitten was sleeping beside the pillow and looking at Qi Ying lazily. Qi Ying sighed and thought that she should have a good talk with Xing Xiaochu tomorrow when she woke up. The cat was so small that it would be easily crushed if put on the bed. If something happened, it would be Xing Xiaochu who would suffer.
“Hmm…”
Xing Xiaochu seemed to have noticed something and raised his head slightly, making a sound similar to a kitten yawning.
Qi Ying looked down at her, only to see Xing Xiaochu sleeping in a mess, with the hair on her temples falling on her face. She smiled gently and reached out to tidy up her hair, but when her hand just touched Xing Xiaochu's cheek, the child turned over and grabbed Qi Ying's arm in his arms.
"Um……"
Xing Xiaochu was still asleep, but her hands were tightly holding Qi Ying's arms. The thin collar of her pajamas was torn open, and Qi Ying saw her beautiful collarbone and her round shoulders that were a little pink.
The touch of his arm was warm and soft. Qi Ying opened his eyes wide and looked at Xing Xiaochu who was hugging his arm and rubbing against him. His heart beat inexplicably faster.
Xing Xiaochu was still sleeping, soundly and sweetly, totally unaware of what she was doing to Qi Ying's arm. She just pressed her face against Qi Ying's palm, the hot air from her nose sweeping across his wrist, her chest and lower abdomen pressed tightly against his, and...
Qi Ying could feel her face burning hot. She thought she must be blushing now, and she could even smell the scent of plum wine emanating from her body.
This child, this child, how come...
Qi Ying felt her throat tighten at this moment. She moved her arm slightly, but Xing Xiaochu, who was sleeping, moved closer to her.
"Well...sister..."
Xing Xiaochu muttered to Qi Ying in her dream, softly and with a nasal tone, calling her: "Sister..."
Qi Ying's heartbeat was so loud that even she could hear it clearly.
***
The next day, Xing Xiaochu woke up in bed. The blanket in his hands loosened and fell to the ground. What he saw was the ceiling that he had gradually become familiar with.
She turned over with a groan, pulled the blanket off the ground, hugged it in her arms again and closed her eyes.
"Meow--"
Through a door, Xing Xiaochu heard Guazi's cries.
The kitten was meowing in the crack of the door. Xing Xiaochu then remembered that he had brought the little fellow into the house yesterday. How come he was outside the door when he woke up?
Xing Xiaochu quickly threw off the quilt and stood up, walking barefoot on the floor to open the door. The meowing little creature stood up with its tail erect as soon as it saw Xing Xiaochu open the door, and wanted to come in. Xing Xiaochu bent down, held it in his arms, and gently patted the little thing's back.
It was the same yesterday. The little kitten didn't want to sleep in the cat bed alone. As soon as Xing Xiaochu closed the door, it would squat at the door and meow loudly and miserably. Xing Xiaochu tried several times, but the clingy little guy just didn't want to sleep alone. There was no way, Xing Xiaochu could only bring it into the room.
Originally, Xing Xiaochu was thinking of taking the kitten out after it fell asleep. However, although the little kitten was small, it started to sniff around after entering the house. Finally, it chose Xing Xiaochu's pillow, circled around it twice, and sat down and refused to move.
That means it's going to sleep here.
Xing Xiaochu was afraid that the kitten might be crushed, so she was very nervous. But later on, she didn’t know what happened, and she slept soundly until the next day.
Who took the melon seeds out?
It couldn't possibly have gone out on its own and closed the door again, right?
Xing Xiaochu looked towards the door opposite, wondering if Qi Ying had gone out...
Holding the kitten in her arms, Xing Xiaochu walked to the door of Qi Ying's room, reached out and knocked on the door, then pricked up her ears to listen. When she heard no sound from the room, she knocked again, and this time she directly pressed the doorknob and opened the door.
The empty room was very quiet. Xing Xiaochu stood at the door feeling a little lost.
Qi Ying was not at home as expected.
"Meow--"
The kitten raised its head and meowed to attract the attention of its little master. Xing Xiaochu lowered his head and smiled at it, coaxing it softly: "Are you hungry? Can I open a can for you?"
"Meow-meow--" the little guy was very happy.
With the kitten at home, Xing Xiaochu felt less lonely. He walked around the house barefoot, opened cans of food for the kitten, and taught it to use cat litter.
now.
Qi Ying was holding his cell phone, looking at Xing Xiaochu's beautiful and smooth feet in the surveillance video. The pink and white toes were so bright and annoying, and the slender ankles and beautiful calves were all exposed, making Qi Ying feel a little thirsty.
She picked up the coffee in front of her and took a sip, wondering whether she should call Xing Xiaochu and ask her not to walk around the house barefoot.
Fortunately, Xiaochu was just barefoot and not anything else. Wouldn't it be a bit of an overreaction to make a special phone call?
And what if Xing Xiaochu finds out that there are surveillance cameras at home and Qi Ying is still observing her on her phone? Don’t scare the child.
Plus last night...
When she thought of what happened last night, Qi Ying felt her face inexplicably hot and her heart beat faster. She didn't know what was wrong with her. She just got hugged and rubbed by Xing Xiaochu, why did it turn out like this?
Not quite like Qi Ying herself.
Qi Ying sighed slowly and put down the cup. Then she heard a ding-dong sound from the door. She immediately raised her head with a frown. When she saw that the person coming was Xia Ruoxin, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Ruoxin: “?”
Xia Ruoxin put down her bag and questioned her: "What's that expression on your face? Huh? Why are you so discouraged when you see me? Don't you want to see me? If you don't want to see me, then I'll leave!"
Qi Ying was too lazy to pay attention to the woman's unreasonable behavior and said calmly: "Stop it, I'm not targeting you."
Xia Ruoxin's black eyes rolled around, and then she thought of something. She immediately jumped to Qi Ying's side and nudged her with her hip elbow, and said with a smile: "Hey, did you and Shi Yu... have a good time last night?"
At this point, Qi Ying couldn't help but look up and glare at her.
Xia Ruoxin pointed at her and said, "Hey, don't look at me like that. I'm just creating an opportunity for you and Miss Shi to be alone."
Qi Ying said: "Then you'd better not create it."
Xia Ruoxin sensed something when she heard this, and immediately asked curiously, "What happened? Did you two have an unpleasant argument yesterday?"
Qi Ying shook her head, and after a while she said to Xia Ruoxin, "I always feel that Miss Shi and I might not be a good match."
