Chapter 77 He reached out and pinched his face
Great, I asked him to come to the utility room, but then I locked the utility room...
Now, he had to go in and take a look.
Xie Tinglan put away the smile on his face and took out a paper clip from his pocket.
He had just taken this from the stack of forms when he went to the director's office and looked through the trainees' signature sheets.
He held it in his palm at the time, and only found it when he left the office, so he put it in his pocket. Unexpectedly, he would use it now.
He pinched the paper clip and pulled it gently, straightened one end of the paper clip, and twisted it between his fingers.
Then he leaned over and approached the keyhole.
Xie Tinglan actually learned a little about how to pick locks. He learned this from the props teacher when he took on the role of a thief.
So an old-fashioned keyhole like the one in front of him was not too difficult for Xie Tinglan.
He squinted one eye and peered inside in the dim light of the corridor.
He immediately understood what was going on and gently inserted the tip of the paper clip. There was a subtle scraping sound of metal against the lock cylinder, and he moved his wrist slightly, fiddling with the pin inside.
He didn't find the right position the first time and the needle tip slipped. He frowned, adjusted the angle, and went a little deeper.
If someone passed by at this time, they would find a bald man leaning over the door of the utility room, with his ear pressed against the door in a very ungraceful manner.
The paper clip twisted with difficulty in the narrow keyhole. Xie Tinglan breathed softly, his fingers sweating slightly due to the tense nerves.
Suddenly, the needle tip touched a key position, and there was a "click" sound, and the lock core trembled slightly.
Found it!
Xie Tinglan's eyes lit up and he immediately seized the opportunity. He quickly raised his finger and at the same time, with his other hand, he grasped the door handle and pressed it down hard.
There was only a "click" sound, and the door handle was pressed to the bottom.
——The door is open!
Xie Tinglan took back the paper clip and pushed the door open without any hesitation.
The utility room was dim, but Xie Tinglan immediately saw the figure slumped over on the sectional chair, his body limp and his arms hanging limply.
"Xia Linxing!"
Xie Tinglan immediately raised his foot and strode towards Xia Linxing.
But when he was about to reach Xia Linxing, he slowly stopped.
——Because he saw Xia Linxing’s eyelashes trembling slightly with her breathing.
——It is obvious that Xia Linxing did not faint due to an accident.
——He just fell asleep.
His chest was still rising and falling evenly, but because he was covered with a small blanket and the light in the utility room was dim, Xie Tinglan had misjudged him at first.
Now that he was sure that Xia Linxing was fine, Xie Tinglan was no longer in a hurry. He walked slowly towards Xia Linxing.
Xia Linxing seemed to be sleeping soundly. He was sleeping on a "bed" made of several chairs. He was covered with a small blanket that had been turned out from some corner (from Xie Tinglan's perspective). He was curled up into a small ball, sleeping soundly with his cheeks puffed up (due to the chairs).
Xie Tinglan walked slowly around the bench where Xia Linxing slept, and even found a lot of unopened snacks and a pile of leftover snack bags around.
Wow, these conditions are really good... Xie Tinglan thought expressionlessly: Not only is there a small blanket to cover myself with, but there are also snacks to eat.
He slowly squatted down in front of Xia Linxing.
Whenever Xie Tinglan thought about how he had just struggled for a long time to open the door with a paper clip, but the person locked inside was sleeping soundly, not only with a blanket but also with snacks to eat... he became furious.
The fluffy little curly hair was still rising and falling with his breathing. Perhaps he was sleeping happily, Xia Linxing even smacked his lips. It seemed that what happened in the outside world did not affect him at all.
Teacher Xie, who has been busy until now, said: He can't stand watching this.
So he held out his hand, and—
He used his thumb and index finger to pinch Xia Linxing's chubby cheeks, which were squeezed out because she slept on her side, with very light force, and gently pulled them out.
The touch from his fingertips made Xie Tinglan curl the corners of his mouth slightly.
Xia Linxing's cheek flesh was much softer and easier to pinch than Xie Tinglan had imagined. It was like soft dough, and had the slight warmth that was unique to deep sleep.
Xie Tinglan couldn't help but rub it again.
"Hmm..." The poor little thing, whose sweet dream was disturbed, groaned as if in protest in his dream, and unconsciously turned his head to hide.
But the culprit not only did not let go, but pulled the soft flesh out even more viciously and violently.
Xia Linxing was sleeping soundly. He had dreamed that he had successfully completed his mission and was traveling around the world alone in his dream, when he suddenly felt an itch on his cheek.
He originally didn't want to care, but the itch became more and more obvious, getting more and more intense, even with a warm rubbing, forcing Xia Linxing to frown and struggle to open his eyelids -
A magnified handsome face was close at hand, and the deep eyes were staring straight at him.
Imagine this scene: you are alone in a dark room, dazed and waking up, only to find a dark figure squatting silently in front of you, with the other person's face less than 20 centimeters away from yours. Just ask yourself -
Who wouldn't be scared?!
“Ah ...
There is no doubt that Xia Linxing trembled all over and screamed out in fear.
He subconsciously wanted to hide back, to create distance between himself and the figure in front of him. This reaction was originally fine, but Xia Linxing forgot one thing - he was sleeping on a piece of bench.
So, when he subconsciously fell backwards, Xia Linxing's body immediately lost balance, and the chair legs made a harsh scraping sound.
"Ah!" Xia Linxing only had time to let out a short scream before he suddenly fell backwards.
It’s over, it’s over... Xia Linxing closed his eyes and could only pray in his heart that he would not fall on his head.
As the world spun around him, a strong arm suddenly grabbed his waist.
"careful!"
The next second, he was pulled into a strong embrace.
