Chapter 30
"Xiaobai, Xiaobai, wake up!"
Tears kept falling from the corners of his eyes, and Xiaobai's heart was filled with disgust for his own helplessness.
"Xiaobai, wake up! Xiaobai!"
It seemed like Jiang Jiang was calling her.
Ginger?!
Xiaobai suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.
She was drenched in cold sweat, her thin clothes stuck to her back, and her chest heaved violently as if she had just been pulled out of the water.
"Did you have a nightmare?"
Jiang Jiang stood up with difficulty and asked in a hoarse voice.
Xiaobai mechanically turned her head and saw Jiang Jiang. Her pupils contracted violently. Still immersed in her dream, she hugged Jiang Jiang in her arms very tightly.
Jiang Jiang felt a little shy, and also felt a little pain because Xiaobai was squeezing her too hard, but she said nothing and just patted Xiaobai's back gently to comfort him.
"Don't be afraid, dreams are the opposite."
After Jiang Jiang took the medicine, her fever subsided a little. She was already sleeping restlessly and was awakened by the noise made by the people around her. When she opened her eyes, she saw Xiaobai lying beside her with his eyes closed, gasping in fear, as if he was having a nightmare.
She didn't bother to blame Xiaobai for climbing onto her bed. She quickly patted him and whispered to wake her up.
Xiaobai hugged Jiang Jiang tightly, his knuckles turning white, and he looked like a frightened little animal that had found support.
"I..." She heard Jiang Jiang's words of comfort, but didn't know how to respond.
Are dreams the opposite?
Why didn't she feel that...
"Xiaobai?" Jiang Jiang broke free from Xiaobai's arms. Seeing that Xiaobai was still in a daze, he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Xiaobai's eyes.
However, as soon as she swayed, Xiaobai pulled her into his arms again.
"Jiang Jiang, Jiang Jiang..."
Xiaobai's arms were like iron hoops, tightening around her waist and back with such force that Jiang Jiang couldn't break free. However, it didn't hurt Jiang Jiang as much as before when he lost control.
Jiang Jiang was a little puzzled by Xiaobai's abnormal behavior, but continued to pat Xiaobai's back to comfort him.
"Okay, okay, I'm here, don't be afraid..." Jiang Jiang repeated softly.
Xiaobai didn't hear a word. Her heart was filled with regret, guilt, powerlessness, grief and indignation...
The moment Jiang Jiang fell to the ground, she felt like she was going crazy.
Xiaobai buried his face deeply in the crook of Jiang Jiang's neck, absorbing the fragrance from Jiang Jiang's body, and kept murmuring, "Jiang Jiang, Jiang Jiang, my, Jiang Jiang..."
The breath sprayed on the sensitive skin. Jiang Jiang shrank her neck shyly and said uncomfortably, "I, I smell of sweat, please don't..."
She had a fever and took medicine before, and she sweated all over in bed. Now she hasn’t had time to take a shower and change clothes, so it must smell bad!
"No, ginger smells good. I like ginger, the smell..."
Xiaobai held Jiang Jiang tightly in his arms and took another sip, making Jiang Jiang blush.
In a panic, Jiang Jiang changed the subject.
"What did you dream about just now?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she wanted to slap herself.
The fever must have burned my brain, why are you asking such questions!
"No, no, I was just talking nonsense..." Jiang Jiang hurriedly explained.
Xiaobai looked at Jiang Jiang's flustered and blushing face, and his heart unconsciously softened a lot.
As long as Jiang Jiang is still here, everything she has is still here.
Seeing Xiaobai laughing, Jiang Jiang's face flushed red, and he punched Xiaobai's shoulder in anger, "What are you laughing at!"
"Jiang Jiang, so cute!" Xiaobai said with his teeth bared.
This made Jiang Jiang feel like he was about to explode.
She lowered her head, reached out her hand, pinched the flesh on Xiaobai's belly and twisted it, then she was shocked to realize that she was still in Xiaobai's arms.
"I... I dreamed that I died..." Xiaobai restrained his smile and spoke lightly.
Jiang Jiang didn't take it seriously and burst out laughing, "You're stupid, why don't you just be nice!"
How could a person whose arms, legs, and even head could be taken off die!
"And then?" Jiang Jiang looked at Xiaobai, who was still a little depressed, and became more serious.
Xiaobai shook her head. She leaned her head against Jiang Jiang's shoulder and said in a muffled voice, "The person lying in the coffin seemed to be me. You were crying so sadly that you almost fainted..."
She covered her chest and suddenly looked up, staring at Jiang Jiang's face almost paranoidly. Her eyes kept describing Jiang Jiang's face, as if she wanted to engrave Jiang Jiang deeply in her mind. "But I was clearly standing there, telling you not to be sad. I wanted to hug you, but you couldn't hear or see me, and I couldn't touch you. I was really uncomfortable, so uncomfortable..."
Jiang Jiang's heart trembled at Xiao Bai's words. She held Xiao Bai's cold fingers and found that his fingertips were still twitching nervously. "I can see it. I can see you now!"
She slowed down her speech and said firmly, "I'm right here with you!"
As she spoke, she wiped away the tears from Xiaobai's eyes with her fingertips. This simple action made her feel tired all over, and the dizziness caused by the fever had not completely subsided.
Xiaobai was shocked to realize that she was crying, but her eyes were always on Jiang Jiang, and she noticed every slight movement of Jiang Jiang.
"Jiang Jiang, lie down quickly!" Xiaobai said as he stood up and pushed Jiang Jiang to lie down.
Jiang Jiang lay down obediently, but stopped Xiaobai who was about to get out of bed, "Will you stay with me... for a while?"
She was a little embarrassed and spoke in a low voice.
But Xiaobai still heard it, and she narrowed her eyes in pleasure, "Okay!"
The two of them lay on a bed facing each other.
Xiaobai's eyes were always on Jiang Jiang. He looked at Jiang Jiang's cheeks which were abnormally flushed due to fever, his brows which were slightly furrowed due to illness, his nose with tiny beads of sweat, and his dry lips.
Finally, she raised her eyes again and met Jiang Jiang's eyes.
"Jiang Jiang..." Xiaobai murmured softly, an indescribable emotion swelling in her chest. She seemed to know what her feelings for Jiang Jiang had always been.
"Silly!" Jiang Jiang was amused by Xiao Bai's wet eyes looking at her. The fever made her voice nasal, sounding soft and a little coquettish. "Dreams are the opposite. Look, I can see you now!"
As she spoke, she raised her hand to rub Xiaobai's head, but was suddenly grabbed by the other party by the wrist.
Xiaobai's grip was still very strong, but it was restrained with caution, as if he was holding fragile glass.
"Jiang Jiang, I don't want to leave you..." Xiaobai said word by word.
That time she thought Jiang Jiang was driving her away, and she really felt that her world had collapsed. If Jiang Jiang hadn't been there, she felt that she really had no motivation to live.
"No more!" Jiang Jiang whispered guiltily, then raised his head and repeated firmly, "No more!"
After getting the answer, Xiaobai happily moved closer, leaned forward, and rested his forehead against Jiang Jiang's forehead. This overly intimate action made their breathing intertwine.
Jiang Jiang could clearly see his own reflection in the other person's pupils, as well as the strong obsession that could not be dissolved.
A hint of crimson crept up Jiang Jiang's ears. She suddenly remembered the unfinished conversation in the woods, and her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.
The low fever made my thinking slow, but it also tore apart my usual restraint.
She leaned back slightly to distance herself from him, her voice so soft that it was almost inaudible, "Xiaobai, you said before that you liked me... It was just a love between sisters, right..."
The air seemed to freeze at this moment.
Xiaobai tilted her head with a confused expression, a childish gesture that formed a wonderful contrast with her extremely aggressive posture at the moment.
"Sisters?" Xiaobai frowned, feeling unhappy. "No!"
She approached Jiang Jiang again, and the two of them were almost touching each other.
"I like the taste of Jiang Jiang, I like the look of Jiang Jiang, I like Jiang Jiang's smile, I like everything about Jiang Jiang!" As if feeling that he couldn't express his inner love, Xiaobai thought for a moment and added, "Jiang Jiang is my whole world!"
Jiang Jiang felt like his face was about to burn.
She lowered her eyes, her thick eyelashes casting a small shadow under her eyes, and leaned slightly closer. "Then...how about this?"
She mustered up all her courage, tilted her head slightly, and gently pressed her dry lips against Xiaobai's, her words disappearing between their lips.
The kiss was as brief as a dragonfly touching the water, but it made both of them hold their breath.
After they separated, Jiang Jiang didn't dare to look up, and could only stare at the buttons on Xiao Bai's clothes. "Are you rejecting it?"
Her voice trembled, and the knuckles of her fingers turned white as she clutched the sheets. She was very scared that Xiaobai was naive and didn't know what love was. His love for her was just a sisterly love!
Xiaobai didn't answer immediately, which made Jiang Jiang, who was waiting for a response, feel that the few seconds were as long as a century.
Xiaobai remained silent. Jiang Jiang began to feel uneasy. She was depressed, sad, and a little embarrassed. "It's okay, I just..."
Jiang Jiang raised his head as he spoke, and saw Xiaobai smiling like a fool. The words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat.
"Jiang Jiang, I like it so much!" Xiaobai reacted only after meeting Jiang Jiang's eyes.
The smile was so bright that it was blinding, and there was pure joy in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
Jiang Jiang was speechless and finally sighed helplessly.
What a fool!
Xiaobai was grinning so hard that his eyes almost disappeared. He was extremely excited and kept shaking Jiang Jiang.
As if he had thought of something, he pulled Jiang Jiang again, imitating Jiang Jiang's previous move and moving closer, but stopped when he was about to touch her, and rubbed his nose against hers affectionately, "Jiang Jiang, do it again! Do it again!"
She pleaded with Jiang Jiang in a coquettish tone.
Jiang Jiang nodded with a red face, and the next second she was thrown onto the soft bed.
Xiaobai's awkward but passionate kisses fell on the corners of her lips and cheeks, and finally he covered her lips with care.
Jiang Jiang vaguely thought in dizziness that having a fever might not be a bad thing, at least it could cover up her blushing face!
"Jiang Jiang, Jiang Jiang, I'm so happy!" Xiao Bai said happily. She pulled Jiang Jiang's hand and placed it on her chest. "I feel like it's swelling here, as if the happiness is about to burst out!"
"Okay, okay!" Jiang Jiang answered helplessly and dotingly.
"Jiang Jiang, Jiang Jiang, I like you so much!" Xiaobai hugged Jiang Jiang tightly again, his happiness overflowing.
"Yeah, good boy!" Jiang Jiang touched Xiaobai's head and yawned. She was still a little tired because she was not well yet.
Xiaobai laughed a lot, but she knew that Jiang Jiang's illness was not well yet and he needed a good rest, so she had to suppress her inner excitement and let Jiang Jiang rest.
Xiaobai leaned against Jiang Jiang, hugged Jiang Jiang, and held her in his arms, his movements as gentle as if he were treating something fragile.
"Jiang Jiang, go to sleep!"
Jiang Jiang chuckled and leaned into Xiaobai's arms, his voice filled with weariness, "Okay, go to sleep. I'll talk to you about what's next when I wake up!"
Xiaobai was stunned and felt a little uneasy because of Jiang Jiang's serious tone.
Did she do something wrong? Or did she do something to upset Jiang Jiang again?
She wanted to ask, but seeing that Jiang Jiang had closed his eyes, she resisted the urge to speak and disturb Jiang Jiang's rest.
Before Jiang Jiang went to sleep, she was still thinking that she would have a good talk with Xiaobai after she woke up.
You really thought that kissing was the end of it! You shouldn't take responsibility! You shouldn't confirm the relationship!
snort!
She was still thinking just before she fell asleep. She must seize the initiative and make Xiaobai behave...
Xiaobai was nervous, afraid that Jiang Jiang would be angry again.
But she won't be afraid anymore, because Jiang Jiang promised her that he wouldn't drive her away!
Seeing Jiang Jiang's breathing gradually become longer, Xiaobai stared at Jiang Jiang intently, his eyes full of unbreakable tenderness.
very nice!
“Buzz buzz buzz…”
A vibrating sound was heard in the quiet environment.
Xiaobai looked out the window suddenly.
I saw a black drone hovering in the air outside the window, with a red light in the middle flashing continuously.
Xiaobai narrowed his eyes, revealing a hint of murderous intent.
