"Hello!"
Early in the morning, as Shen Mochen got up to wash, he noticed Xia Qingrou staring intently at him, her eyes red like a rabbit's.
"What's wrong? You have dark circles under your eyes," Shen Mochen said with concern on his face.
"Did you feel anything last night?" Xia Qingrou asked, her gaze blank.
Shen Mochen shook his head, "I don't know what you're talking about..."
Xia Qingrou still looked unconvinced, "Really?"
"Really!" Shen Mochen assured her, nodding earnestly.
"How can this be... Is it only ... It shouldn't be..."
Xia Qingrou curled up on the sofa, mumbling to herself as if in a trance.
"Qingrou, what's wrong, you don't look like you slept well..."
Liu Chaoyan also walked over at this ti and was surprised to see the defeated look on Xia Qingrou's face.
"No, no, no, I'm fine... I'm fine..." Xia Qingrou distractedly shook her head and then looked up at Shen Mochen again, fixing her eyes on his lips with a complex expression.
Liu Chaoyan cocked her head and said nothing more.
After finishing breakfast, Xia Qingrou waved her hands, "I'm on cleaning duty today, you guys should go back and rest!"
"Why the rush, can't I just sit on the sofa for a while?" Han Muxue frowned.
"No, no, that won't do, I need to clean!" Xia Qingrou waved her hands frantically, her face exaggerated, "There will be a lot of dust later, and it will choke you!"
Liu Chaoyan laughed, "Qingrou, I cleaned yesterday, there can't be that much dust today, can there?"
Xia Qingrou's face embarrassed, "Ah, anyway, you guys should go back first, Yuncui is about to return, and I need to clean up to welco her!"
The other three exchanged glances and followed Xia Qingrou's wishes, each returning to their rooms.
Xia Qingrou stretched her neck and looked around. Once she confird the three had returned to their rooms, she almost subconsciously grabbed the chopsticks Shen Mochen had just used, staring at the tips, her throat swallowing...
She opened her small mouth and gently licked them.
"Eh, I knew it wouldn't work!"
Xia Qingrou cried out in dismay, wondering if last night was just an accident, or did it only work if it was mouth to mouth!
"Hey, do you usually take a nap?"
Xia Qingrou pushed open the door to Shen Mochen's room.
"Hmm?" Shen Mochen was startled, "Is Buque not supposed to take naps?"
Xia Qingrou's expression was a bit awkward, "I didn't say you can't, I'm asking if you do!"
"Why are you suddenly asking this... do you want to nap with ?" Shen Mochen's face lit up with surprise.
"How could I! Just answer if you take naps!"
"I usually sleep about half an hour after lunch, but if you want to nap with , I can wait for you."
"Oh, you're so annoying, I already said I don't want to sleep with you!"
Xia Qingrou left satisfied, slamming the door behind her.
Shen Mochen pursed his lips and smiled, guessing what she was up to.
Suddenly, Fuzi appeared, grabbed Shen Mochen's collar, and kissed him on the lips.
"I've already said, can't you give a heads-up?" Shen Mochen said, resigned.
"I want to be the first today," Fuzi said, then disappeared again.
Shen Mochen wiped his mouth and said irritably, "What's with this 'first' and 'second'? My first kiss isn't sothing that can be refreshed daily... What's the point in competing over this..."
At around nine in the morning, an alarm went off, and the four of them were dispatched. Although they were missing Xiao Xingshuang, their strongest combatant, they were still able to handle the situation. It just took much more ti than usual.
After returning, Xia Qingrou got started on cooking lunch. After the al, Liu Chaoyan went back to her room to write the action report, and Han Muxue retreated to her room to play video gas.
"Why aren't you going back to your room? Didn't you say you wanted to sleep?" Xia Qingrou was cleaning up the dishes and cast a glance at Shen Mochen.
"Let help you," Shen Mochen said, grinning.
Xia Qingrou blocked him with her body, "Don't even try it. Rember the rules? If it's my turn on duty, it's my turn!"
Shen Mochen looked hurt, "Since when do we make distinctions between us!"
"There still needs to be so sorting out." Xia Qingrou's voice was cold, "Hurry up and go to sleep."
"I feel like you're not yourself today. Why are you so insistent on sleeping?"
Xia Qingrou imdiately felt guilty and lowered her head, "Am I? Don't talk nonsense! I-I'm just concerned about you, taking a nap in sumr is good for your health!"
...
Having ushered Shen Mochen away, Xia Qingrou finished washing the dishes, her heart pounding violently.
She reached for her phone to check the ti, hmm... wait a bit more.
Checked the ti again, wait a bit more...
Wait a bit more...
Half an hour had passed!
Xia Qingrou cald her excited emotions and tiptoed to Shen Mochen's room door. He was indeed sleeping, and apparently, he was already sound asleep.
"Sleeping right after eating, just like a pig..." Xia Qingrou entered the room, gently closing the door behind her.
She carefully approached the side of Shen Mochen's bed, the even rhythm of his breathing filled the air.
He really was handso, and not a bad person... just a bit of a flirt.
But how should she put it? It wasn't entirely his fault for being a flirt; there was a matter of first co, first served... It was her fault for being late, right?
Actually, Xia Qingrou used to love reading sweet romances about childhood sweethearts, this kind of love where they grow up together and stay devoted to each other for life was just too perfect!
But now, she suddenly realized that she had beco the vicious second female lead in those stories about childhood sweethearts!
To hell with childhood sweethearts, your grandma supports the female lead falling from the sky and blowing away the childhood sweetheart! Damn white moonlight, get lost!
"Don't think I wanted to kiss you, oh. I just wanted to verify sothing..." Xia Qingrou muttered to Shen Mochen quietly.
Suddenly, Shen Mochen stirred, and Xia Qingrou imdiately panicked and dove under the bed.
Wait, why am I hiding under the bed? Xia Qingrou suddenly felt a sense of humiliation. She used to be able to kiss this man whenever she wanted, why should she sneak around if he's asleep?
Damn it, it's all this lousy guy's fault!
Getting up from the ground with a grudge in her heart, Xia Qingrou looked resentfully at Shen Mochen's lips, no longer hesitating and conflicted, she went ahead and kissed him.
The familiar sensation appeared again, and Xia Qingrou joyfully realized that her superpower had strengthened once more!
However, before she could celebrate, she was suddenly pulled into an embrace by Shen Mochen, who was on the bed.
She was startled, thinking Shen Mochen had discovered her stealing a kiss and lay obediently in his arms, too embarrassed to look up at him.
But after a long while with no reaction, Xia Qingrou grew curious and lifted her head to see that he hadn't woken up after all.
Feeling like she had dodged a bullet, Xia Qingrou took a deep breath of relief. She tried to wriggle free from Shen Mochen's embrace, but Shen Mochen murmured again, seeming to regain consciousness, and Xia Qingrou stopped, not daring to move.
"Sister Xia... Xia sister..."
At that mont, Xia Qingrou heard Shen Mochen's sleeptalking right by her ear. Hearing her own na, she perked up her ears, trying hard to press her body against his to hear what he would say.
