Chapter 764: Chapter 766: Wonderful Misunderstanding
The following morning.
Due to the events of the previous night, Lin Fei stayed in his own bedroom. Consequently, Xia Youyou, who had been thoroughly worn out by Lin Fei for most of the night, was woken up by Qi Wenjie, who was up early for a morning jog.
“Youyou, it’s so late, and you’re still sleeping. Get up, let’s go jogging.”
In high school, Qi Wenjie was an athlete, and although she didn’t major in physical education in college, she maintained her habit of morning jogs from her high school days. Ever since college and up until now, unless the weather was particularly vile, Qi Wenjie would rise early to run.
And as Qi Wenjie’s good friend for many years, having accompanied Qi Wenjie since their college days, Xia Youyou naturally also developed the habit of early morning jogs under Qi Wenjie’s influence.
For a woman as quiet and refined as Xia Youyou, her self-discipline was generally quite strong. Typically, she would wake up first at least five days a week before arousing Qi Wenjie so the two could go jogging together.
But today, it was obviously the other way around.
“Youyou, why are you sleeping so deeply today? This isn’t like your usual self.” Seeing that Xia Youyou only humd symbolically in response to being woken and then fell back asleep, Qi Wenjie, who knew Xia Youyou’s usual self-discipline, sat on the edge of the bed both puzzled and concerned, pulling Xia Youyou up to lean against her.
“Oh my, why are you sleeping like the dead? Youyou, your dark circles are so severe. What ti did you go to bed last night? You didn’t stay awake all night with insomnia, did you?!” Qi Wenjie exclaid in shock after seeing Xia Youyou’s “panda eyes” as she pulled her up to lean on her.
In the mont after Qi Wenjie’s words, a hint of realization flashed through her pretty eyes. Then, with a sense of relief, Qi Wenjie said to Xia Youyou, “I rember now, last night I think I heard so noises from you. Youyou, you must have had a nightmare last night, right?”
Ashad and feeling the drowsiness fading away with Qi Wenjie’s suggestion, Xia Youyou nodded in agreent to the reasonable excuse of having a nightmare, not daring to let Qi Wenjie realize what she and Lin Fei had done last night.
Hearing Xia Youyou’s nod, the sense of relief in Qi Wenjie’s eyes deepened.
She patted Xia Youyou’s soft hand comfortingly and said slowly, “It’s okay, just a nightmare. It’s all over now, just forget about it. Next ti you have a nightmare, don’t hesitate at all, just run straight into my bedroom. It’s my fault this ti, although I vaguely heard so noise. But last night I was sleeping so soundly. Drifting in and out, I awoke briefly and then fell asleep again. I promise it won’t happen next ti. Next ti, the mont you make a sound at night, I promise I’ll co right over to accompany you.”
Looking at Qi Wenjie swearing so earnestly, even raising her hand as if taking an oath, Xia Youyou really wanted to tell her, “You better not!”
There’s no telling if Lin Fei might get the urge to co over and keep her up late into the night again. If Qi Wenjie, in her eagerness, were to co over to accompany her then…
That would certainly create quite the drama.
With Qi Wenjie’s temperant, whether she would get jealous and ignore Xia Youyou was uncertain, but a mixed doubles battle would definitely be unavoidable.
“Okay then, you lie down for a bit longer. I’m going to jog now. When I co back and finish cooking breakfast, I’ll wake you up.”
Not knowing what Xia Youyou was thinking, Qi Wenjie simply believed that Xia Youyou had just had a nightmare, as she had said. Then, with her tender chin resting on Xia Youyou’s forehead, she comforted Xia Youyou with so calming words.
After that, Qi Wenjie left Xia Youyou’s bedroom at a leisurely pace.
Seeing Qi Wenjie leave, Xia Youyou, who finally exhaled a huge sigh of relief, could no longer resist the fatigue of her body.
Almost the instant Qi Wenjie closed the door, Xia Youyou closed her eyes and fell back asleep.
…
In the rented apartnt shared by Xia Youyou and Qi Wenjie, Qi Wenjie, who had just returned from a run, was bustling around the kitchen making breakfast while constantly muttering to herself.
“Sothing’s not right. Youyou has had nightmares before, but when she had them in the past, she never had trouble sleeping through the whole night like this. Sothing’s not right. I have to go check on her!”
Feeling uncertain about Xia Youyou’s state, Qi Wenjie could no longer continue cooking halfway through.
With that, she walked leisurely into Xia Youyou’s bedroom.
“Youyou, Youyou, wake up…” Qi Wenjie called out several tis before finally waking her up, and her heart grew even heavier with hesitation.
Consequently, she couldn’t help but reach out to feel Xia Youyou’s smooth, jade-like forehead, trying to gauge her temperature.
“It shouldn’t be. She’s not running a fever.” Noticing that Xia Youyou’s temperature was normal, Qi Wenjie felt even more uncertain. Regardless, she couldn’t ignore how sleepy Xia Youyou was. Straightening Xia Youyou’s shoulders, Qi Wenjie asked sternly, “Youyou, tell
the truth. What exactly did you do last night?! I don’t believe you just had a nightmare. You’ve had nightmares before, but never like this, unable to sleep all night.”
“Youyou, tell
the truth, what exactly did you do last night?!”
Even with Xia Youyou’s drowsiness so heavy she felt like falling into Qi Wenjie’s arms and sleeping deep and dark, she could only muster her energy and shake her head in denial under Qi Wenjie’s repeated questioning.
“I, I didn’t do anything, really, I didn’t do anything. I’m just, just sleepy. Wenjie, stop asking , let
sleep a bit.”
“I don’t believe you. You’re definitely hiding sothing from . Get up, let
check on you.”
Convinced that Xia Youyou was hiding sothing from her, Qi Wenjie ignored Xia Youyou’s pleas, determined to lift up her quilt. She wanted to get her out of bed and check her body.
However, the mont Qi Wenjie lifted up Xia Youyou’s quilt.
Qi Wenjie was suddenly frozen!
Originally overwheld by Qi Wenjie’s fuss, Xia Youyou, seeing Qi Wenjie looking stunned, followed her gaze and saw a patch of deep red blood on her bedsheet, which inevitably caused her to freeze as well.
“Wenjie, I—”
“You what?! Xia Youyou, when did you start being so pretentious with ! I’m not a man, no need to hide sothing like nstrual pain from . I’m really fed up with you!”
“Ah?!”
“Ah what! Lie down properly, I’ll go boil so water for you.”
With that, Qi Wenjie casually left Xia Youyou’s bedroom.
Leaving Xia Youyou alone, lying on the bed, stunned and speechless…
