525: Chapter 526 Awkward Ambiguity
Song Xiaoru still disliked air conditioning and had turned off the central unit in the room.
With the temperature having dropped quite a bit, she crawled into bed and Song Xiaodong pulled the blanket over himself.
Song Xiaodong wanted to do the sa as Song Xiaoru, who imdiately pressed down on the blanket, saying, “No, you can’t do that.”
Song Xiaodong said, “But I’m cold too.”
Song Xiaoru said, “If you’re cold, just go to your room, where you can turn on the air conditioning any ti you like.” Yet, her voice carried a bit of a coquettish tone, soft and tender.
Song Xiaodong made a sour face and said, “But I’d have to go back to my room for that.
You can’t expect
to keep you company here and still be cold, right?”
Song Xiaoru’s face seed to turn even redder as she said softly, “Then…
it’s agreed, you can only lie down obediently.”
“Of course, I’ll just lie down obediently.
I’m just here to chat with my sister,” Song Xiaodong quickly slipped under the covers and then imdiately turned on his side and hugged Song Xiaoru around the waist.
“You…
you said to lie down obediently, so why are you hugging ?” Song Xiaoru’s body stiffened a bit as she pushed Song Xiaodong away.
“I said I’d lie down obediently, didn’t I?
I didn’t say how I’d lie down, and this is more comfortable,” Song Xiaodong grinned and moved closer to Song Xiaoru, saying, “Hugging my sister like this, I just feel an indescribable happiness.”
Trying to keep her face stern, Song Xiaoru said, “Stop ssing around.
You should be hugging Qingqing, hugging Yingying.
Why not go hug Xuanxuan or Su’er instead?
Why do you always want to hug ?” But her voice was still soft and lacked authority.
Song Xiaodong said, “It feels different hugging them.
When I hug them, I think about doing other things.
But when I hug my sister, I just feel very peaceful, a sense of happiness enveloping .”
“You always have an excuse,” Song Xiaoru shot Song Xiaodong a glance, then closed her eyes and said, “Let’s just leave it at this, and don’t you dare do anything else.”
Song Xiaodong agreed, but he felt strange inside.
In the past, when he held Song Xiaoru like this, he really didn’t want anything more than to be close to her.
But now Song Xiaoru kept reminding him not to ss around, which inadvertently led his thoughts astray.
Song Xiaodong hurriedly tried to dismiss these jumbled thoughts; after all, this was his sister.
Even though they didn’t share blood, in his heart, she was his real sister.
Having such ssy thoughts was a desecration to her, but they were not easily dismissed in the mont.
As a woman, Song Xiaoru naturally had more thoughts than a man, and she was quite sensitive.
After the incident where she and Song Xiaodong almost made a mistake, she couldn’t treat him the sa way she used to.
She feared sothing might really happen, yet she also enjoyed how Song Xiaodong clung to her with such affection.
Both harboring their own thoughts, silence fell between them for a while.
The quietness was abnormal.
Both could feel each other’s heartbeats quicken and their breathing beco rapid and heavy, their body temperatures even rising a notch.
Song Xiaodong felt this was truly awful.
The atmosphere made him uncomfortable, and he didn’t want things to beco so awkward with Song Xiaoru.
His hand moved slightly.
“Dongzi, what…
what are you doing?” Song Xiaoru suddenly called out in alarm.
With a pang in his heart, Song Xiaodong put so effort into his waist and shifted his body up quite a bit, his arm going directly under Song Xiaoru’s neck, embracing her in his arms.
Song Xiaoru just looked at Song Xiaodong in a panic, not knowing what to do.
“Sis, don’t be nervous.
It was all my fault for scaring you last ti.” Song Xiaodong gently kissed Song Xiaoru’s forehead and caressed her shoulder, saying, “Sis, rest assured, I won’t do that sort of thing to you again.
I respect and love you so much; how could I ever make the sa mistake.”
“Oh…” Song Xiaoru let out a sound, but her body still seed to be tense.
Song Xiaodong felt even more uncomfortable inside, knowing that such promises alone were not enough to relax Song Xiaoru.
He smiled slightly and said, “Sis, do you rember when I was little, I went out to play with my friends in the dead of winter and then fell into an ice hole?”
Song Xiaoru imdiately said, “I rember, you were so cold that your lips turned purple, and when you got ho, your clothes were stiff like ice pops.”
“Yeah, I rember you stripped
down then, and you took off your clothes too, holding
tight to warm
with your body heat.”
Song Xiaoru playfully hit Song Xiaodong and said, “You should be ashad of bringing that up.
You scared
so much then; I thought you were really going to freeze to death.”
“Yes, I wasn’t thinking much back then.
I was just afraid you’d scold , but now that I think about it, you were so worried about .
In this world, I believe there are few siblings better than you.
Having a sister like you is the greatest fortune of my life, and I can never repay the kindness you’ve shown in raising .”
Song Xiaoru also showed a tender smile, looked up at Song Xiaodong and said, “Why talk about such things?
I’m your sister; looking after you is what I’m supposed to do.”
“Yes, we’ve always relied on each other since we were little, and I made up my mind long ago that I would always take good care of you.
I will never let you be wronged.
No one else can bully you, and I definitely can’t bully you anymore.
I won’t make the sa mistake a second ti.”
Song Xiaoru, eting Song Xiaodong’s gaze, finally felt her tension completely dissipate.
She raised her hand to caress Song Xiaodong’s cheek and said, “Dongzi, I was too sensitive.”
Song Xiaodong took Song Xiaoru’s hand with his other hand, brought it to his lips, and gently kissed the palm, saying, “That’s because you care about .
If it were soone else, they would have slapped
and sent
packing long ago.
It’s because you spoil .”
Song Xiaoru humphed and said, “Good that you know that.
If you dare to ss around again next ti, I’ll definitely send you flying with a slap.”
The two smiled at each other, instantly dissolving any awkwardness.
Song Xiaoru nestled in Song Xiaodong’s arms, saying, “It really is a bit cold.”
Song Xiaodong laughed and said, “Then hold
tight.
I’m like a little heater; I’ll warm you up in no ti.”
“Then I’ll take you up on that offer.” As Song Xiaoru spoke, her cold hand reached into Song Xiaodong’s bathrobe at his chest.
Song Xiaodong shivered for a mont, and Song Xiaoru laughed gleefully, withdrawing her hand, “Does that feel better now?”
“It’s fine.
It was just a bit shocking at first, but I’m okay now.” Song Xiaodong held onto Song Xiaoru’s hand; he wanted to use his body warmth to warm her.
