Chapter 633: The Story Within the Story
The firewood in the charcoal basin burned with a hollow sound, exploded slightly, and sparks flew up.
Lin Yiyi, who was lying facing outward, was startled and her legs trembled so much that a gap appeared in the quilt.
The quilt that had just been warmed up suddenly became cold.
The man lying flat on the inside seemed to be asleep and was not awakened by her movements.
Lying on her side relieved the discomfort in her waist and legs, but Lin Yiyi felt colder and colder. The cotton-padded jacket the man lent her was folded up and used as a pillow.
She was covered with the quilt from the guesthouse.
The quilt had a strange smell of dampness during the plum rain season, and it also smelled like fungi growing on rotten wood in the rainy season. She hid under the fungus umbrella, avoiding some of the cold, but was wrapped in decay and oldness.
The musty smell made her feel uncomfortable, and she regretted pretending to be a model of chastity and morality.
Now he's slapping himself in the face again.
The night makes people's senses particularly sharp. Places that are not easy to notice during the day are now extremely clear. The smell on the pillow makes Lin Yiyi feel ashamed of rubbing herself against his arms.
The 1.2-meter bed is actually very narrow.
The distance she deliberately wanted to keep was very close.
Lin Yiyi's teeth were chattering, her limbs were cold, but not warm at all.
She wanted to cover herself with the quilt that Zhao Sheng brought, so she could only take the initiative to ask, "Are you asleep?"
The man on the other end said nothing, only wondering if he had frostbite.
Ever since I carried her through the window, my hands started to itch and feel hot.
Not hearing any answer, Lin Yiyi reached out her hand from under the quilt and poked at his quilt again.
"Zhao Sheng...are you really asleep?"
When she touched him like this, Zhao Sheng felt that his legs were beginning to get frostbite. He felt a little annoyed and spoke in a cold tone, "What do you want to say?"
Lin Yiyi was startled, but did not back down. She only whispered in a roundabout way, "I...you answered when I called your name. You must be very cold and can't sleep.
Do you want to cover three quilts together?"
“……”The person who is covering himself with one thin quilt says that the person who is covering himself with two quilts is cold.
Zhao Sheng had the urge to expose her thoughts for a moment, but his itchy knuckles made him want to see what she would do next.
Use the honey trap on him?
What he hates most is women who push themselves too far.
However, punishing a repeat offender female hooligan is a good thing.
He didn't hesitate, just followed her words and said "OK".
No longer wanting to suffer the cold, Lin Yiyi quickly lifted the thin quilt and prepared to get into his bed.
At this time, the man's cold voice sounded again, "Sleep on one side."
“…”
Lin Yiyi actually didn’t want to sleep with her face next to a man’s feet. What if his feet smelled?
She decisively changed direction and lay down next to him.
His bed was indeed warm and not damp.
While quietly waiting for his body to warm up, Lin Yiyi became more and more aggressive. She lowered her voice and called his name softly and quietly.
"Zhao Sheng..."
In the dark night, the man rubbed his knuckles more and more frequently, and the fragrance of her body went straight into his nostrils. He did not reply, and remained silent as usual, but in his heart he was waiting for her to say the next words.
“…” He was clearly not asleep, but he ignored her and didn’t stop her.
Lin Yiyi seemed to be silently encouraged, and climbed up the pole tentatively little by little, casting a net called lies.
She didn't want anything from him, she just wanted to know what the place was called and where it was during that period.
"This year, the pasture ran out of food. In order to have something to eat, I went to the south to look for my relatives. But I met some bad guys on the way and my luggage was lost. The address note inside was also missing.
My relatives live in a small fishing village by the sea, close to a big city across the sea."
"Do you know what that's called?"
“……” No wonder he became a blind migrant. It turned out he wanted to sneak to the south. He dared to run around without even knowing the place clearly.
Zhao Sheng didn't tell her, and said in a stern tone, "Didn't you say you were going to Xiaozhen?"
"..."Ghost's little Zhen, she was just talking nonsense.
Why does he have such a good memory? He can remember nonsense so clearly.
Lin Yiyi used her brain to think crookedly and subconsciously pretended to be shy, but she thought that he couldn't see her, so she could only speak timidly and shyly.
"I...I was just talking nonsense. I don't recognize many of the words on the address note."
"...I only studied for three years, please don't...laugh at me, okay?"
Zhao Sheng sneered in his heart. She was not only a blind migrant but also a bold illiterate.
Even though I can't read, I still analyze his name word by word.
He didn't want to tell the female liar, so he said coldly: "I don't know."
“……”So straightforward?
Lin Yiyi felt that he must know that in an era without positioning and navigation, freight drivers must have memorized a lot of routes.
She wanted to know the answer, so she wouldn't give up easily.
Thinking about what happened in the evening, it seemed useless to be polite and serious with him. She didn't want to waste her social interaction, so she acted coquettishly with a thick face.
"Brother Zhao, can you please think about it carefully?
If you don’t know either, I really don’t know what to do…”
The soft and tender call of "brother" made Zhao Sheng feel half of his body numb. They were already close to each other, and the word "brother" went straight from his ears to his heart.
He was hit so hard that he was a little unsteady on his feet, but luckily he was lying down.
For some reason, he felt a little angry again. He just casually called a man "brother". He must have called others that often.
Zhao Sheng's voice became even colder, "Who is your brother? Don't shout."
“……”Fuck!
Lin Yiyi cursed in his heart, but reason prevailed. His words were a little unromantic, but he did not deny the question asked later.
This also means that Zhao Sheng must know about the small fishing village, but just doesn't want to tell her.
She turned sideways and faced him, and even though she couldn't see, she pretended to be timid and pitiful.
"Brother, can you please tell me? If I can't find my relatives, I won't even have a meal to eat."
“…I don’t want to starve to death on the road.”
He kept saying Brother Zhao and good brother, not being reserved at all. Zhao Sheng felt even more suffocated and spoke harshly, "Isn't he still alive?"
"!!!"
For a moment, Lin Yiyi wanted to punch him, but thinking of his strong physique and cold face, she just suppressed her frustration in her heart and didn't get angry.
It’s okay, it’s okay, I’m a straight man, so I should be more understanding.
“…You…please don’t be so fierce, okay? I…I…” Lin Yiyi deliberately dragged out her sobbing voice, her words a little incoherent, and her shoulders twitched as if she was really about to cry.
The more pitiful you pretend to be on the surface, the more you curse him in your heart!
There was no answer from him, nor could he stop me. I had to go on the stage and perform whether I wanted to or not.
Lin Yiyi thought about the time when she failed a course in the past. She felt really aggrieved and started to sob.
But no matter how much she cried, she did not forget to control the volume. Crying too loudly would only make people dislike her and she would be kicked out of the guesthouse.
Although they had not been together for long, Zhao Sheng had already seen through her as a female liar. He was not moved by her and instead felt annoyed.
It’s not like he didn’t give her food or drink. Even when she had egg drop soup in the evening, he chose the lunch box with more egg drops.
She's making a scene over a trivial matter. He wants to see how long the female liar can cry.
The two of them were just like this, not awkwardly...
The man didn't accept the challenge, and Lin Yiyi couldn't slap herself in the face, but pretending to cry was also a tiring job.
She couldn't beat him if he tried to use force, and he didn't seem to fall for her soft approach.
Isn't it soft enough?
Lin Yiyi thought about it for dozens of times and finally decided to take the risk.
She sobbed and hummed softly like a kitten or a puppy.
She seemed to be extremely sad and fell directly into the man's arms.
But when Lin Yiyi's fingertips touched the naked skin, she screamed like a groundhog in her heart!!!
Why isn't he wearing a shirt?
When did he take it off?
Her face was already pressed against the man's chest and she had no way to retreat.
The play must be performed to the fullest. If you back down now, everything will be in vain.
Lin Yiyi paused for two seconds and then continued sobbing.
Zhao Sheng didn't notice anything unusual about her, but his whole body was numb after she pounced on him like that.
There was a soft thing in his arms, and the fragrance that had been lingering on him completely captured his nostrils.
