Chapter 97: Miss You
“There is a warning for heavy rain and strong winds tonight, close the doors and windows before you go to sleep.”
Before going to sleep, Xia Li received a weather warning on his phone.
He pushed open the Evil Dragon’s door and reminded the side-lying Evil Dragon inside.
The Evil Dragon curled up with her phone in her arms. The lights in the room were off, and the phone’s fluorescence illuminated her fleshy little face as she lay on it.
“Hehe… Okay!”
Lucia responded to Xia Li without looking back, while taking a break from watching videos.
Xia Li gently closed the door.
Oh, Stinky Dragon.
Now that she has a phone, she doesn’t co to cling to her boyfriend anymore.
Clearly, at this ti before, they would always cuddle up on the sofa together and watch TV.
As expected, the mobile phone is the greatest invention of the 21st century that hinders human interaction!
Let’s go back to my room and play so gas first.
Tonight, he had arranged to play LOL with Chen Tao and the others. Xia Li sat back in his chair and put on his headphones.
The little prince of the mid lane in Summoner’s Rift, with his eyes closed, loves no one.
After battling with his brothers in the ga for more than two hours, Xia Li looked at the ti and saw that it was almost midnight.
“I’m going to sleep.”
“The nightlife has just begun, and you’re telling you’re going to sleep?”
“Do you even act like a young man in his early twenties!”
“It’s normal, Boss Xia is now living with his girlfriend.”
“Damn, I’m envious.”
“Take care of yourself.”
“Take care of yourself.”
“……”
Amidst several “take care of yourself” blessings, Xia Li closed the ga.
When he first returned to Earth, his biological clock would make him sleepy at eight o’clock. Now it was midnight, almost reaching the limit of this body.
Yawning, Xia Li went to the bathroom to relieve himself.
When he ca out, he deliberately paused at Lucia’s room.
It was very quiet inside, and no light could be seen from the gap under the door. She should have turned off her phone and gone to sleep.
He went to the balcony and closed the door. The strong wind outside made him shiver.
Rubbing his hands, Xia Li returned to his room and huddled up.
Winter in Sichuan Province is really damn cold.
In comparison, the cold-dispelling magic on Azure Continent is truly versatile.
As soon as he lay down on the bed, Xia Li’s mind entered sleep mode the mont it touched the bed board.
Before the dreamscape in his mind could take shape, the phone on his nightstand buzzed with a vibration.
Picking it up, he saw that it was a group ssage.
Peach: @Sumr Dawn. Co out for internet cafe this weekend.
Peach: Anqi will also be back in a few days!
Rubbing his eyes, Xia Li picked up his phone and replied with two words, “Let’s discuss later,” without much thought.
The Anqi ntioned by Peach is Zhou Anqi, one of Xia Li’s childhood friends who grew up in the sa neighborhood.
She is also the only female disciple under the Boss Xia gang in Building Number Three, Shangdong Chaoyang Residential Complex.
Because she is usually busy with her postgraduate entrance exams, this only girl rarely cos back. She was also absent the last ti they had grilled fish.
“I could introduce Lucia to Anqi,” Xia Li suddenly thought.
It had been almost a month since Lucia ca to Earth, and apart from the neighbors, she had hardly co into contact with anyone, let alone soone of her own age and gender.
Xia Li now assud Lucia to be an eighteen-year-old girl.
With Lucia’s current cognitive abilities… simple communication with people of the sa age group should be no problem.
Although Lucia still couldn’t understand so internet slang, it would be enough to explain that her village had just gotten internet access.
Lucia had no experience in making friends, and Xia Li himself was not comfortable letting her interact with other humans. But if it were humans that Xia Li knew well, it could be worth a try.
Turning over in bed with his phone in hand, Xia Li typed out another ssage.
◈◈◈
Sumr Dawn: Sure, send the address when the ti cos.
He decided not to ask for the Silly Dragon’s opinion.
Making friends is a compulsory course in social training.
Since Lucia herself had said that she wanted to integrate into this place and be a part of society, these were all important experiences.
Turning over again, Xia Li tossed his phone back onto the nightstand and pulled up the quilt to wrap himself up.
After the recent freezing rain, the temperature had plumted, heading towards single digits.
In another two months, the thick quilt at ho would definitely not be enough. Xia Li estimated that he would need to get two new ones, or go back to Mrs. Fang’s place and snag so from there.
He wondered if the Silly Dragon was cold…
The quilt Xia Li had given Lucia was still the sumr cooling quilt. He had asked Lucia many tis, and she always said she wasn’t cold, didn’t need it, and that it was just right.
But whenever there was a fluctuation in temperature, Xia Li would still worry about whether Lucia would catch a cold.
He didn’t have this awareness when he was living alone before. Now that soone was living with him, he always felt like there were more things around him.
Whenever he encountered so trivial matters in life, he would imdiately think of the Silly Dragon. When he ca across a picture of delicious food, he would also imagine what kind of expression the Silly Dragon would have if she tasted it.
Now, this Silly Dragon not only lived in Xia Li’s ho but also seed to have moved into his heart.
“Tsk tsk.”
Clicking his tongue, Xia Li had to admit that he was really smitten with Lucia.
He attributed all these abnormal behaviors of his to the way one expresses love for soone.
After all, it was the honeymoon period now.
Even if it was a one-sided honeymoon, it was still a honeymoon.
He tossed his phone back onto the nightstand again. Just as he wrapped himself up like a rice dumpling and was about to fall asleep, his phone vibrated again.
“Buzz…”
Xia Li’s little dark room had no windows and was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Any little noise could wake him up.
He was about to reach for his phone and turn it off directly, but when he saw the sender’s note, Xia Li’s drowsiness vanished instantly.
Girlfriend: ,
Girlfriend: Miss You
“……”
Xia Li sat up straight in bed.
After teaching Lucia how to use the phone these past few days, the two of them had also tried sending ssages to each other.
But Lucia had just learned pinyin, and her typing speed was not only slow but also prone to errors. So the content of her chats with Xia Li was basically just emoji battles.
To receive a text ssage other than emojis tonight was truly a surprise for Xia Li.
However, it wasn’t goodnight.
What did “Miss You” an?
Did she make another typo?
Xia Li was hesitating whether to reply when, about a minute later, Lucia sent another ssage.
Girlfriend: Miss You
No, what do you an you miss ?
You’re a female dragon, what are you trying to do?
Sumr Dawn: You’re not asleep?
‘Girlfriend’ is typing…
Xia Li sat at the head of the bed, waiting patiently, but the more he waited, the more anxious he beca.
Sumr Dawn: If typing is difficult, you can send a voice ssage.
Sumr Dawn: See the speaker icon in the bottom left corner? Press it, then tap and hold ‘Hold to Talk’.
His fingers flew across the nine-key input thod, typing out a ssage and sending it.
After thinking about it, he felt sothing was wrong.
They were only separated by two doors, and it would take ten seconds to walk over. Was it really necessary to send ssages back and forth?
Throwing off the quilt, Xia Li prepared to head for the Dragon’s Lair.
His phone vibrated again. This ti, Lucia had sent a voice ssage.
Girlfriend: “Miss you.”
