Chapter 108 Wishes

It wasn't really late at night, as I could see lights on in other residents' homes through the windows.

After Xiao He Qing had this thought, she slowly sat up from the bed.

Just when I was about to get out of bed, I suddenly heard Lin Xiaoli's voice coming from the living room: "Of course, Xiao Qingqing is lying down?"

Little He Qing was so frightened that her body froze and she dared not move.

Lin Zhengran, who was tidying up the single bed in the study outside the house, heard his mother asking curiously. It sounded like she sat down on the bed: "She just lay down, she should not be asleep yet."

Lin Xiaoli: "Really? Then I'll go and comfort Xiao Qingqing. This is the first time she spends the night at our house."

Then little He Qing heard Aunt Lin knocking on the door.

She was so scared that she quickly shrank back into bed and lay down, hurriedly tidying up the quilt, grabbing the edge of the quilt with her two little hands, acting very well.

Lin Xiaoli knocked on the door in her pajamas and asked, "Xiao Qingqing? It's me, Auntie. Are you asleep?"

Xiao Qingqing pretended to be sleepy. She was a little cunning. She pretended to be sleepy so that she could chat less with adults. Then she secretly went to him and said, "Well, Auntie, I'm not asleep yet. What's wrong?"

"Nothing, just asking if you're used to sleeping here. After all, this is your first time staying here."

Xiao Heqing said politely: "I slept very well, and Auntie, you can just come in and talk, no need to stay outside the door."

Lin Xiaoli opened the door, stuck her head out and looked at Xiao Qingqing who was blinking her eyes. The two of them looked at each other and suddenly smiled foolishly.

Lin Xiaoli walked to Xiao Qingqing's bed and sat down: "Xiao Qingqing, are you comfortable lying down? When I came back this afternoon, I heard your uncle say that you were going to stay here tonight, which surprised me."

Little He Qing grinned and said, "Sorry to bother Auntie and Uncle. Next time I come over, I'll buy them something delicious."

"Haha, little Qingqing is so cute. No, no, it's like being at home. If you want to stay, just stay. At most, you can just let Ranran continue to sleep in the study."

In the study, Lin Zhengran closed the door and lay on the bed, reading a book under the quilt with only a desk lamp on. After a few minutes, he heard his mother walk out of her bedroom, probably because she had finished chatting with He Qing.

She also turned off the lights in the living room: "Xiao Qingqing, you should have a rest. Auntie has gone to bed too."

I could still hear little He Qing responding: "Well, Auntie, go to bed. Good night."

"Good night, Xiaoqingqing."

All I heard afterwards was the sound of a door closing and a light being turned off, and the living room became pitch black when I looked through the crack in the door.

But about two minutes later, Lin Zhengran suddenly heard the sound of a little mouse sneaking around.

The sound came from the bedroom where He Qing lived. The mouse walked very slowly and closed the door.

He even lowered his voice and said, "Lin Lin Zhengran? Lin Zhengran? Are you asleep? Are you asleep?"

Lin Zhengran looked towards the door and wondered what the little mouse was going to do.

Little He Qing who was outside the house didn't wait for Lin Zhengran's reply. She wanted to knock on the door but didn't dare to because she was afraid that her uncle and aunt would hear it.

Seeing a gap outside the door, Mengming thought of lying on the ground and talking to him through the gap, so that he should be able to hear me more clearly.

Who knew that he just lay on the ground and said: "Lin"

Lin Zhengran opened the door. He didn't see anyone at first, but when he looked down he saw Xiao He Qing lying on the ground, and he said he had not heard wrongly.

"What are you doing lying on the ground like a little mouse?"

Little He Qing was really afraid that her uncle and aunt would hear her, so she raised her head and put her fingers to her lips and hushed them twice: "Be quiet, or else my uncle and aunt will hear you."

Lin Zhengran really didn't know what she was thinking. What would happen if she heard it? She hadn't done anything bad.

Little He Qing slowly got up from the ground and simply dusted herself off. In fact, the floor was very clean because it had just been mopped after dinner.

Little He Qing looked at Lin Zhengran nervously, clasping her hands: "Can I go in and tell you?"

After closing the study door again, Lin Zhengran sat on the bed and looked at the little He Qing standing in front of him. She always spoke like she did when she was a child, as if admitting her mistakes and reflecting on them: "What do you want to say?"

There was only one desk lamp in the room so it was dark and quiet.

Xiao He Qing saw that he didn't know what to say. She just wanted to come to him and said, "I can't sleep alone."

"Afraid of sleeping alone?"

Xiao He Qing shook her head: "I'm not scared, you're next door. I'm not scared, I just can't sleep alone," she repeated.

Lin Zhengran blinked in confusion: "So? How can you fall asleep?"

Little He Qing lowered her head, her thumbs nervously circling each other, and she glanced at Lin Zhengran furtively: "I don't know, anyway, I just can't sleep alone"

Lin Zhengran was speechless, but he knew what this girl was trying to do, so he came up with an idea: "Why don't you sit in my bed for a while? See if you feel sleepy, and then go back to sleep."

Xiao He Qing was flattered and nodded slowly: "Okay."

So Lin Zhengran sat in the bed and lifted the quilt against the wall: "Then sit in the bed for a while and warm your feet first."

Xiao He Qing quickly took off her slippers and got into the bed, sat next to Lin Zhengran, and covered her lower body with the quilt.

Lin Zhengran looked at the silly girl's happy expression and asked, "Will you get sleepy if you sit like this?"

Little He Qing pecked at the rice like a chicken: "Yes, yes! I can."

Lin Zhengran ignored her clumsy look and continued to sit on the bed and read. Due to the light from the desk lamp, the lines of Lin Zhengran's profile appeared clearer than usual.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Little He Qing stared at herself until her face turned red and her heart beat fast. Not to mention being sleepy, she was becoming more and more excited.

My heart was pounding.

"Lin Zhengran, do you think that big sister during the day is pretty?"

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

Xiao He Qing opened and closed her mouth, hesitated for a while and then opened it again: "I mean, do you like her more, or do you like me more..."

Lin Zhengran looked at Xiao Heqing's courageous face, it seemed that she had mustered up the courage to ask this question.

Lin Zhengran thought for a moment and answered while looking at the book: "If you ask about the type, they are almost the same. Whether it is a queen or a silly white sweet girl, they are the same in my heart. But if you ask about the person, I definitely like you a little more now. After all, you are by my side all day long."

Xiao He Qing suddenly seemed to be floating up, her eyes widened, and her shoulders slightly contracted.

With little mouth open.

She looked at him with sparkling eyes, incredulous: "Is it true?"

"Really? Why would I lie to you?"

Little He Qing slowly grasped the quilt with her hands and whispered, "Then I'll answer as well. I like you, too..."

Lin Zhengran stopped flipping through the book and turned to look at Xiao Heqing's flushed cheeks and her mindless eyes. "What did you say?"

Xiao He Qing blinked her eyes and said in a low voice: "I said I like you."

A brief silence.

Immediately after she finished speaking, she couldn't hold it in, she covered her burning face with her hands, curled up her legs, and buried her face in her knees.

She explained: "I don't mean anything else! I just said it simply, without any intention of confessing anything, it's just..." She hugged her thighs, and Mosquito hummed: "I just want to say that I like you."

Lin Zhengran smiled and let out a long breath.

Putting down the book, he asked, "What wish would you have if you win the championship tomorrow? Didn't I say last time that I would grant you one wish? Have you thought about it?"

Little He Qing only turned her head a little to look at Lin Zhengran, and seeing that he was not angry, she replied: "Well, I've thought about it..."

"What is it?"

Xiao Heqing bit her lip and said, "I want to hold your hand. I want to hold your hand."

The two people looked at each other.

"Really? Sure."
