After agreeing to Chi Zaiqing's request, Shi Xi realized that something was amiss.
His original seat was with Chi Zaiqing, with Cheng Hao next to him, but now the person next to him is Jiang Yichen.
Sheng Yingpu was on the outside, and Chu Yao was on the inside. If Chi Zaiqing came over, he could only sleep on his left.
In other words, he was caught in the middle of these four people, caught in a dilemma, with virtually no room to move freely.
It's like they've locked him up.
"..." This position is just too awkward.
Before he could even say anything to back out, he saw Chi Zaiqing running over excitedly, clutching the wolf skin.
With a snap, he threw down the wolf pelt and lay down on it.
The movements were fluid and seamless, without the slightest hesitation.
Then she said goodnight to Shi Xi and fell asleep instantly, showing no signs of being a light sleeper.
Shi Xi paused for a moment, glanced at Jiang Yichen, just as the other man's gaze had turned away from Chi Zaiqing.
"Go to sleep," Jiang Yichen said.
Shi Xi glanced at Chu Yao again; the other man frowned slightly but ultimately remained silent.
Meeting his gaze, Chu Yao raised an eyebrow and asked, "What is it?"
"It's nothing." Shi Xi shook her head, noticing out of the corner of her eye that the other person hadn't worn gloves while sleeping at night.
Neither the main character nor his childhood friend said anything, so Shi Xi had no choice but to swallow her words and obediently lie down to sleep.
[Shi Xi, 666 and 888 asked me to go shopping, I'm going out~ Bye bye~~]
The next second, in his mind, the little yellow chick, pulling the cyber suitcase, waved at him.
Shi Xi casually said, "Go play."
Shi Xi opened her eyes unintentionally and met a pair of deep, dark eyes.
Jiang Yichen asked, "Can't sleep?"
Shi Xi blinked, listened to the steady breathing beside her, and gave a soft "hmm".
Jiang Yichen was sleeping on his side, facing Shi Xi. The cave was not large, and Shi Xi was less than ten centimeters away from him. He could clearly see the fine downy hair on the other's face.
And the slightly reddened earlobes, the red earrings on the ear cartilage reflecting the firelight, and below that was her long and beautiful neck.
Jiang Yichen looked at him for a while, then suddenly reached out and tucked a strand of hair behind Shi Xi's ear.
I gently pinched his neck.
"What are you doing?" The sudden touch made Shi Xi's body tremble slightly involuntarily.
"I have pierced ears." Jiang Yichen asked, "Why did you get your ears pierced?"
"???"
Shi Xi was internally ranting and raving.
Why are you touching my neck if you have pierced ears?
My ears aren't located there.
Shi Xi recalled the plot for a moment before saying, "I wanted to join the army, but I failed the exam, so I got my ears pierced in a fit of anger."
Gao Buran's dream was to be a soldier, but unfortunately, he was diagnosed with a hereditary disease during a physical examination and had to give it up.
Unable to realize his dream in this lifetime, and with his life now on a countdown, Gao Buran was deeply traumatized and suffered from depression for a long time.
Fortunately, Gao Tingyu, her good younger sister, offered her comfort; otherwise, Gao Buran might not have been able to get through it.
Thinking of Gao Tingyu, Shi Xi felt a little worried, wondering how the young girl was doing alone in the hospital.
Their parents died unexpectedly when they were young, leaving only the two siblings to depend on each other. In fact, the older brother had never even met his younger sister.
"Didn't pass the exam?" Jiang Yichen looked at Shi Xi with surprise. With his skills, how could he not pass the military academy entrance exam?
Jiang Yichen frowned. "Why?"
Shi Xi replied dismissively, "Not passing the exam is simply not passing it; there's no reason why."
Perhaps because of her poor attitude, Jiang Yichen remained silent for a long time. Just as Shi Xi was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard his voice: "If you still want to join the army, I can recommend you."
"No need." Shi Xi turned around and said to Jiang Yichen, "I'm fine the way I am."
Jiang Yichen watched Shi Xi's retreating figure, his dark eyes deepening.
Why did he fail to get into military academy?
"A-Ran..." Shi Xi had just turned around when she heard Chi Zaiqing murmur softly, "A-Ran is the best..."
Upon hearing this, Shi Xi frowned, observed Chi Zaiqing for a while, and only felt relieved after confirming that the other party was truly asleep.
After reviewing his behavior over the past two days in his mind, he realized that all he talked about was money. Given his miserly behavior, these people probably didn't have a good impression of him.
The plot progressed smoothly, and apart from the fact that the protagonist, Chi Zaiqing, was too clingy to him, there were almost no abnormalities.
This time it's a sure thing!
After the debriefing session, Shi Xi closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep peacefully.
I had just fallen asleep when I suddenly felt a warm touch.
At first, he didn't take it seriously. After all, Chi Zaiqing was a pampered young master who didn't sleep well and was always bumping into things.
But this time it felt a little different. The other person's movements were very awkward, only lightly brushing his cheek like a feather.
It was as if they were testing something.
"..." This action is definitely not Chi Zaiqing's!
Shi Xi struggled to wake up, but her body was stuck to the tiger skin as if it were glued on, and she couldn't even lift her eyelids.
Shi Xi could only try to stay awake while quietly waiting for the other party's next move.
The other person quickly withdrew their hand, and Shi Xi had just breathed a sigh of relief when the other person's large hand intensified, pressing against his face and groping him haphazardly as if they had a skin hunger disorder.
Damn it, who's not following the plot properly and instead acting like a thug?!
Shi Xi cursed inwardly.
After touching it for a while, the other person reluctantly left.
Shi Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and after another ten minutes or so, she felt her ankle being suddenly grabbed.
"……" So annoying.
When will this person ever stop?!
Before Shi Xi could continue cursing, she felt a pair of strong hands rhythmically kneading her calves, gradually relaxing her tense muscles.
A wave of relief washed over her, and Shi Xi felt inexplicably guilty.
"...?" Did the other person want to give him a massage? He misunderstood them.
But there's no need to touch your face during a massage...
The other person massaged his feet from his ankles to his calves in a circular motion. At one point, their hand seemed to want to go over his knees and rub his thighs, but then paused for a few seconds as if it was inappropriate, and then moved down to knead them again.
Shi Xi felt very comfortable from the massage and drifted off to sleep.
I don't know how long I slept, and then I suddenly felt a tightness in my neck.
Here we go again with "……".
Shi Xi simply gave up on herself.
His neck was also a bit sore, so I gave it a massage.
Shi Xi waited for the other person to massage him, but to his surprise, the other person only pinched him lightly twice and then started touching his ears.
Following his earlobe, from the cartilage to the earlobe, her warm fingertips fiddled with his earring, seemingly quite interested.
Shi Xi became increasingly curious about who the other person was, acting crazy in the middle of the night instead of sleeping.
He suddenly broke free from the invisible restraints and opened his eyes to see who was causing trouble.
Shi Xi sat up, but the hand that had been clumsy earlier was nowhere to be seen.
"Can't a person get some sleep in the middle of the night?!"
