Chapter: Chapter 61
Carefully, Leticia crawled into the covers, trying her best to stay away from Bai Ling. She then rolled onto her back, intending to sleep.
Her bed was much larger than an ordinary single bed, and it was more than enough for two people to sleep in.
One of the more important reasons for this was that if the bed was too small, Leticia would easily fall off it while sleeping.
Now, this turned out to be a good thing. At least Leticia didn’t have to sleep awkwardly pressed against Bai Ling.
“Aren’t you going to hug me?” Bai Ling’s confusion arose from Leticia’s honesty.
A hug pillow, as the name implies, is for hugging, but Leticia didn’t do that. Instead, she tried to distance herself from Bai Ling as much as possible.
This was very strange. Bai Ling believed her definition of a hug pillow was correct, so the only possibility was that Leticia’s definition of a hug pillow was problematic.
“What business is it of yours? Isn’t it okay if I just want to sleep like this?” Leticia turned over, facing away from Bai Ling, and mumbled, “Stop talking and go to sleep.”
This Bai Ling was ungrateful. Wasn’t she just being well-behaved because she was afraid Leticia would be embarrassed?
If she had really hugged her, how could this Bai Ling still be this calm?
Hmph, she, Leticia, was indeed a great benevolent person.
Wait, why was she proud of being a great benevolent person? She was supposed to be the Demon King, a villain, right?
A storm once again swept through Leticia’s mind as she began to grapple with whether she should be a good person or a bad person.
The answer to this question was provided by Bai Ling.
A warm body pressed against Leticia’s back, and an arm as white as an onion stalk slipped under Leticia’s armpit, gently encircling the black-haired girl.
Leticia’s face instantly turned red. In the darkness, she could clearly feel the girl behind her breathing again and again. The hot, moist air brushed against her sensitive nape, making her feel an itch.
Bai Ling had initiated the hug!
What was this all about? Bai Ling was supposed to be her hug pillow, so why had it turned into this?
“What are you doing?”
“You said you wanted to hug me to sleep, but you didn’t come over to hug me, so I had to come hug you,” Bai Ling replied matter-of-factly.
The hot air exhaled by the girl sent a shiver down Leticia’s spine. The Demon King Miss had begun to regret her decision. She hadn’t expected such a simple request to turn into this.
However, there was no turning back now. She could only grit her teeth and bear it, as she had fallen into this trap by her own foolish whim.
But to be honest, being hugged by Bai Ling felt surprisingly good.
Leticia had been accustomed to sleeping alone for a long time. Her mother basically ignored her, and after a few nights sleeping with Leticia, Kira couldn’t tolerate Leticia’s terrible sleeping posture.
As a result, Leticia, the Demon King, had slept alone for nearly twenty years.
She only had the experience of being hugged while sleeping when she was very, very young. However, that memory had long since become blurred, and even Leticia herself didn’t know if she had been hugged while sleeping back then.
“Do you want me to let go?” Bai Ling’s silence made her suspicious. She was afraid she had been too forward and that Leticia, a girl as thin-skinned as a veil, couldn’t handle it.
But Leticia’s answer surprised Bai Ling. “It’s fine, this is good.”
Saying this, Leticia even took the initiative to hold Bai Ling’s hand. She shifted her body and turned back.
In the darkness, Leticia saw those red eyes filled with surprise. These eyes, which had appeared in her dreams countless times, the eyes that made her grit her teeth with hatred, now brought her a sense of comfort.
“If you think about it carefully, you don’t look that bad.” Leticia buried her head in Bai Ling’s not-so-small chest and took a deep breath. “I’ve always wanted to do this, and today my wish has come true.”
Leticia’s actions made Bai Ling blush. She hadn’t expected Leticia to do something so out of character.
Leticia, who was now nestled in her embrace, embodied the word “soft” to the extreme. Bai Ling couldn’t imagine that Leticia could have such a side.
It was like going to see a tiger, only to find that the tiger behaved like a kitten. It was too impactful.
It made Bai Ling suspect that something might be wrong with Leticia’s brain.
“Are you alright?”
“I’m perfectly fine. You, hug pillow, shut up. Do hug pillows talk?” Leticia hugged Bai Ling tightly. “If only you were actually a hug pillow.”
Leticia knew that her current behavior had completely shattered her image, but she didn’t care anymore. Just for tonight, she decided to follow her heart.
Let all that silly face go to hell. She, Leticia, just wanted to be close to pretty girls. Whether it was Bai Ling or someone else, as long as she liked it, it was fine.
Bai Ling had almost killed her, so that was a small matter.
“You…” Bai Ling really felt that Leticia’s brain was malfunctioning. How had that tsundere girl become so purely “dere”? Something was definitely wrong.
Could it be that in the dark, Leticia had decided to let loose?
Believe it or not, Leticia was indeed planning to do just that.
After all, she had lost all face tonight. Whether she asked Bai Ling to move away or pretended to be calm, Bai Ling would discover that Leticia was actually scared.
And the one who was now turning the tables and didn’t know what to do was Bai Ling. This move could be called an extreme trade-off.
“Don’t talk, sleep.” Leticia nudged her head again, making Bai Ling’s face turn even redder.
Leticia, who had completely let go, had successfully counterattacked Bai Ling. Now, it was the pure and cute Bai Ling who was troubled.
She was wondering if she had been a bit too aggressive earlier and had short-circuited Leticia’s brain.
Look at Leticia now, was this really Leticia?
It didn’t seem like it.
“You…” Bai Ling wanted to say more, but the girl in her arms let out a soft snore.
Leticia fell asleep at an incredibly rapid pace, leaving Bai Ling in the real world, bewildered.
The Bai Ling pillow seemed to have a unique hypnotic ability. After hugging it for a few minutes, Leticia was already off to meet a young lady in her dreams. The effect was truly remarkable.
In contrast, Leticia had no hypnotic effect. At least for now, Bai Ling had absolutely no sleepiness.
