The terrace was very cold in the early morning, with a cold wind blowing from time to time.

Xia Wan curled up in the innermost part of the recliner and covered her entire body with a blanket, but she could still feel a slight trembling that she couldn't control.

Although she had closed her eyes, she did not sleep comfortably in such an environment.

Before going to bed, she drank a bottle of fruit wine and managed to fall asleep.

Until the sound of a recliner being dragged on the ground was heard very faintly.

Xia Wan was easily awakened and opened her eyes drowsily. In the dim light, Song Zhili moved the recliner he was sitting on to her feet.

He sat in the direction where the wind was blowing, and used his body to shield her as much as possible.

"Song Zhili..."

She yawned and called his name reluctantly, saying, "You don't have to do that. You should also get some rest."

Song Zhili replied: "It doesn't matter, I couldn't sleep anyway."

"Then there's no need to deliberately stand in the wind's outlet. It's the coldest there." Xia Wan took a look, then moved back a little, patted the chair, and motioned Song Zhili to come over.

Song Zhili came over and stood beside her.

Xia Wan was cold and sleepy. She still felt uncomfortable. She patted her chair even harder and said, "Sit here."

Song Zhili obeyed and did as he was told.

Xia Wan grabbed his sleeve and buried her face in his shoulder, thinking in her heart: He is so stupid.

Sitting so far away, the wind was cold, and because it was so far away, it actually didn't block her from anything.

But now it’s different. The wind is indeed blocked by Song Zhili. At least her face won’t be hurt by the wind anymore.

Then Song Zhili heard Xia Wan say to him seriously: "Give me a few minutes, I will fall asleep immediately. When I fall asleep, I won't feel anything, and then you can push me to block the wind for you, understand?"

Song Zhili was amused and confused by the fact that Xia Wan could still come up with her own logic even though she was in such a difficult situation.

Xia Wan's eyelids were so heavy that she couldn't even lift them up. But she stubbornly raised her head again, as if looking in the direction of Song Zhili. Her eyes were actually closed again, but she repeated, "Do you understand?"

"Got it." After Song Zhili finished speaking, he gently placed his hand on the back of her head, allowing her forehead to rest on his shoulder again.

Song Zhili blocked most of the cold wind, as if supporting this little world for her.

His voice was gentle, and seemed to carry a hint of temptation: "Don't move, close your eyes, it's time to go to sleep."

The girl's steady breathing soon sounded. Perhaps it was because she drank some wine in such an environment, and with Song Zhili shielding her from the cold wind, she slept quite soundly.

A long time.

Song Zhili gently held Xia Wan's shoulders and went through some psychological struggle.

Finally, he held her completely in his arms, which was the most daring and offensive thing he had ever done in his life.

Even though he could tell himself that doing so would make her sleep more comfortably, he also knew that there was also shameful selfishness mixed in.

The sound of my heart beating so violently was unfamiliar to me. It seemed that I had never worked at such a high frequency in my life.

The wind was freezing cold, but he didn't feel any chill because the girl's body in his arms was warm.

Song Zhili raised his head and looked at the moon again.

The moon is in the sky.

No, the moon was clearly in his arms.

＊

The next morning.

Xie Yan was the first to wake up. After washing up, he walked out, but he stopped when he passed Xia Wan's room.

The door was ajar.

He reached out and knocked on the door frame and called out "Xia Mu", but got no response.

Xie opened the door with disgust, and there was no one inside.

The bed was neatly laid out, and it was obvious that the person had not slept in it or had already woken up and made the bed.

Xie Han suddenly remembered that he had sent a message to Song Zhili last night but still hadn't received a reply, so he immediately walked towards his room.

Sure enough, the guest room was also clean and tidy, with no signs that anyone had lived there yesterday. Song Zhili's cell phone was placed on the bedside table.

Xie Yan didn't need to think too much and walked downstairs directly.

Still no sign of them.

He walked towards the third-floor terrace again, and through the glass doors and windows, he saw familiar figures leaning against each other.

It was as if in such an environment, they relied on and depended on each other, and each other was the only comfort and warmth.

There was a hint of coldness in the young man's narrow eyes, which he himself was not aware of. He walked over quickly and opened the door.

When Xie came, he did not deliberately slow down his movements, and one could even say that he deliberately made some noise.

Song Zhili was not asleep at first, so he looked up at the first moment.

Xie looked at Xia Wan with disgust, then looked at Song Zhili. Some things could be understood by each other without saying anything.

Xia Wan slowly opened her eyes, and the moment she realized that she was leaning on Song Zhili's shoulder, she suddenly woke up, and immediately sat up straight and kept her distance.

After seeing Xia Wan's instinctive reaction, Xie's disgusted expression eased a lot and he felt quite satisfied with it.

Xia Wan woke up, but she felt that her mind was not fully recovered. She looked at Xie and asked, "Why are you here?"

Xie asked slowly, "Why can't I be here? Am I disturbing you?"

Xia Wan didn't understand the sour taste in Xie's words at all, and immediately asked: "How can we get out if you're here?"

Thank you: "?"

Song Zhili said: "The door is broken and can only be opened from the inside, so we can't get in."

Xie Yan naturally didn't believe it, but after trying to open the door and failing, he had no choice but to believe it.

Xia Wan yawned and said, "Give up the struggle. You can only be trapped with us now. All my servants are on holiday. Now we can only wait for Wei Chiyan and Jiang Yushi to rescue us."

Xie Yan showed an embarrassed expression on his face.

Song Zhili immediately realized the problem was not simple and asked: "What happened?"

Xie Hate smiled, but said something cruel enough for Xia Wan: "If I'm not mistaken, Jiang Yushi and Wei Chiyan played games almost all night, because they were very noisy last night."

So they can't wake up for the time being.

Xia Wan & Song Zhili: "..."

A blessing in disguise.

Because he and Lu Yue had agreed to watch the first screening of Boonie Bears at 3 p.m., Wei Chiyan got up "early" at 10 a.m., prepared to have breakfast, wash his hair and take a shower, restore his spirits, and completely crush Lu Yue in terms of appearance.

When Wei Chiyan passed by them for the fifth time, he finally noticed Xia Wan knocking on the window and successfully rescued them.

Xia Wansheng rushed to her room with no regrets and said, "You can do whatever you want. The refrigerator is full of food. I'm going to sleep!"

Wei Chiyan looked at Xia Wan's back in astonishment, then looked at Xie Yan and Song Zhili, and asked, "You three weren't stupid enough to be trapped all night yesterday, were you?"

Xie Ren did not deny it, but said: "Go have breakfast, I wish you and Lu Yue a happy date."

Wei Chiyan: "???"

Fuck him!

In the room.

Xie looked at Song Zhili and asked, "Do you need to rest for a while?"

Song Zhili knew Xie very well, so he said directly: "If you have something to say, just say it."

Xie disliked smiling with an indifferent expression, looking lazy, but his expression turned cold the moment he looked at Song Zhili.

They didn't say anything, but their years of friendship and tacit understanding made them both understand what the other was thinking at the moment.

And in the end, Xie Hate only said four words.

"I regret it."

He regretted sharing something he thought was interesting with Song Zhili. It seemed that not everything in this world could be shared.

That was originally a secret that only he knew, and he should protect her and not let anyone find out.

Song Zhili said with a gentle expression: "It's too late to regret now."

Thanks for not saying anything.

Song Zhili continued: "It is not too late to mend the fence after the sheep have been lost. It is enough for us to know."

Eye contact.

Xie Yan laughed out loud and said, "Song Zhili, I really didn't expect you to say such a thing."

Song Zhili remained calm and said, "I am doing this to protect her."

"You can't even fool yourself with this kind of nonsense, isn't it a bit too much to use it to fool me?" Xie Yan exposed Song Zhili without hesitation, but then said: "But I agree."

The author has something to say:

The two bad foxes actually reached a consensus
