51. Me? I haven’t been at his mercy at all.
The coldness of the high mountains penetrates to the bones.
Fortunately, there’s a warm blanket to keep warm, but… how did things develop into this situation?
When saying those words of ‘invitation.’
Lin Yibai wanted to slap herself, why did she give the stinky rival in love a sweet date?
At this moment,
She was already in the secret passage: hoping that some stinky rival would be a bit more perceptive and aware.
But obviously.
Lin Yibai couldn’t handle the cold.
Could it be just because he changed gender that Xia Changyu could handle it?
“Stinky rival, don’t come over, don’t come over.”
“No, come, over!! If you’re smart, just quickly reject me and give me an out, then I won’t have to share the same blanket with you.”
However, the rival responded with: “Really?”
Thank you, good woman.
So what you said? Lin Yibai wondered if she could take back her earlier words and say it wasn’t possible?
But, it wouldn’t matter that much, right?
Lin Yibai wasn’t concerned about the difference between genders.
Psychologically, it was just two big men wrapped in one blanket; it’s not a big deal, just regretting why she gave the stinky rival ‘convenience’?
“Again, again…” Lin Yibai didn’t want to get too entangled in this issue, just turned her head to one side and said: “It doesn’t really matter, it won’t take a piece of my meat or anything.”
“Thank you.”
“The blanket was brought by you, what are you thanking me for?” After a moment of hesitation, Lin Yibai straightforwardly said, “After all, I am the one enjoying your care.”
Really, stop saying thank you, I’m not that shameless.
This is just a mutually beneficial situation; don’t overthink it.
However, some things still need to be clarified.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Yibai said: “But don’t misunderstand, I don’t want to share a blanket with you, don’t think too much, got it?”
“Got it!”
Finally, Xia Changyu also got under the blanket.
The two were close enough to feel the warmth and softness from Lin Yibai.
He couldn’t help but wonder.
Does this count as sleeping in the same bed?
Maybe because of excitement, Xia Changyu was still full of energy, feeling like there were endless things to talk about.
But unfortunately, Lin Yibai was really tired.
She wasn’t like Xia Changyu, who went on a self-driving tour and then slept the whole afternoon in a hotel.
Lin Yibai had to take a high-speed train and transfer.
She still had to plan and keep watch, completely exhausted!
Xia Changyu couldn’t help but ask: “Lin Yibai, what department and major are you in?”
“Don’t know.” Lin Yibai closed her eyes and explained: “I’m a bit tired now, sleepy… so please don’t talk to me anymore, just let me rest, okay?”
Xia Changyu: “Okay, I promise.”
Lin Yibai: “Mmm.”
Xia Changyu: “When the sun rises, I’ll definitely wake you up.”
Lin Yibai: zzZZZ.
So tired, this is definitely a good sleep.
He dreamed that he found another cute girlfriend, just as pretty as Lin Baiyi.
But unfortunately, a certain unexpected person appeared halfway.
Damn stinky rival, are you going to steal my girl again?
‘Creak, creak~’
In her sleep, Lin Yibai gritted her teeth in anger, while in reality, she was grinding her teeth.
Stinky rival, you surnamed Xia won’t have a good life!
“She must be having a nightmare, right?”
Xia Changyu couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, he was quite sure that teeth grinding shouldn’t be a bad habit of the girl in front of him! So who could have made this girl so angry?
She, the one called Lin Baiyi.
Did she dream about someone else?
Did she have someone she liked in school? Surely many liked her!
With time passing.
A long while later, Xia Changyu suddenly woke up: “Wait, why am I even thinking about this? I haven’t even resolved things with Gu Xiaoxue yet, and here I am being indecisive.”
He couldn’t help but recall a classic line from a certain TV drama: Just lusting after her body, how petty!
But was it really just lust?
Xia Changyu preferred to call it ‘attraction!’
He admitted that he was drawn to Lin Yibai’s beauty, temperament, and uniqueness.
“Alas~”
In the darkest moment before dawn, Xia Changyu let out a soft sigh.
He clearly knew what he should do now.
“First resolve things with Gu Xiaoxue, then think about other matters!”
“First, break up.”
“This time there will be no room for reconciliation.”
Xia Changyu believed that as a person, at the very least, he should have some sense! He should be able to distinguish urgency, and everyone is an adult, knowing what to do and what not to do.
Clearly, Gu Xiaoxue is a troublesome person.
He also had to admit one fact.
That through dealing with this girl by his side, he had developed some feelings.
Yet he also began to doubt himself.
Was it really because he liked her?
Or just because he was attracted to her beauty?
Xia Changyu fell into long-lasting self-doubt; anyway, saying so much was useless.
It was time to break up.
Definitely break up.
Must, must break up with Gu Xiaoxue.
Then consider other things!
Xia Changyu’s energy was indeed abundant; it was ridiculous that such a problem lingered until dawn.
A hint of red appeared on the edge of the sea.
The seaside sunrise was indeed very early, barely past five in the morning, and it had already risen from the sea.
Some people had already set up their cameras on the observation rocks.
He nudged Lin Yibai, who perhaps hadn’t reacted yet, leaning her head against his arm as if it were a pillow.
She even had Xia Changyu’s palm somewhat trapped between her knees, just like she would do at home with a pillow.
“Umm…”
Xia Changyu was stunned.
He really wished this moment could last forever, but unfortunately, he lacked the courage to take advantage of this situation.
After thinking for a moment, he continued to wake her up: “Lin Baiyi, wake up, the sun is rising.”
Lin Yibai: “……”
Xia Changyu: “Lin Baiyi!!”
Ah~~~ so sleepy, Lin Yibai finally opened her sleepy eyes; in fact, she didn’t want to see the sunrise at all. She felt that any hard bed would be a hundred times better than that bright red sun.
So, can’t I just not look?
Xia Changyu was just like other travelers.
It seemed that he had already set up his phone and was waiting for a long time.
Everything was ready.
He just needed a girl to enter his lens?
(~O~)……(-.-)
Lin Yibai yawned and asked, “Are you going to take a picture of me?”
“Or take a picture of the sun?”
“Aren’t sunrises supposed to be about the sun? Shouldn’t the protagonist of the sunrise be the sun?”
“I hope you could add a touch of beauty in my lens, may I ask?”
“Spare me!”
“Why are you so different from other girls? Others wish their 128G phones could hold 129G of their photos, yet you won’t give me even one.”
“I just want to see the sunrise.”
“So?”
“Once it’s over, it’s beautiful.”
“……”
Xia Changyu directly lost his motivation.
He had really prepared well, hoping to take a perfect photo that could be hung above his bed.
Lin Yibai really didn’t want to cooperate, feeling like she was being dominated by the stinky rival in many aspects.
Could it be just an illusion?
