âYou can sleep in Mingyuâs room, or maybe a nearby hotel.â Lu Yang did not look at his expression, so she didnât notice the subtle hint of perplexity in his confusion
âNo⦠Mingyu is coming back tomorrow to pack things up, so you canât stay in his room. Forget it⦠do whatever you want, Iâm tired,â she continued, closing her eyes again, pulling the blanket, and going back to sleep.
Watching her sleeping face, Jiang Yanzhou couldnât help but silently laugh.
Anyone who didnât know would think she was sleepwalking.
Moreover, Lu Yang really trusted him.
The last time he pretended to be asleep, she didnât wake him up and just lay beside him.
Lu Yang didnât want to make their relationship public at the moment, and he wouldnât force her.
They had plenty of time, and they would take it step by step.
Not long after, Lu Yang opened her eyes again. Her voice, still half-asleep, was as soft as a feather tickling oneâs heart.
âYanzhou, I had a nightmare. Do you have a way to help me fall asleep?â She was clearly tired, but she just couldnât sleep.
âCan I read you a collection of poems you like?â
Lu Yangâs brain froze, unable to think or move. She didnât ask him how he knew which collection of poems she liked, and simply responded hesitantly, âOkay.â
Jiang Yanzhou gently pulled a chair and sat up straight, lowering his voice, and began reciting, âI offer you lean streets, desperate sunsets, the moon of the jagged suburbs.â
He held her hand, pressing her fingers onto the prominent veins, lightly scratching them with an almost imperceptible touch.
âI offer you the loyalty of a man who has never been loyal.â
With a natural and smooth delivery, occasional pauses in his voice, like a refreshing fine wine, Lu Yangâs furrowed brow gradually relaxed.
âI can give you my loneliness, my darkness, the hunger of my heartâ¦â
His voice turned into intoxicating incense that filled her dreams, driving away the nightmares, leaving only beautiful dreams.
âI am trying to bribe you with uncertainty, with danger, with defeat.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The sky began to brighten, and the morning light streamed through the windows, illuminating the living room.
Lu Mingyu entered with breakfast in hand and called out, âYangyang, Iâm back.â
No one responded.
The room was so quiet that even the sound of a falling needle could be heard.
Lu Mingyu placed the breakfast on the table and dialed Jiang Yanzhou on his phone.
On the other end, Jiang Yanzhou had just arrived home and was about to enter the bathroom to take a shower. When he saw the incoming call, he paused for a few seconds before answering.
âJiang Yanzhou, why isnât my sister at home? Are you sure you safely brought her back?â Lu Mingyu sounded a bit nervous. âThere are many bad people these days, and someone as ethereal as Yang yng is in danger. Are you sure you brought her back?â
âI brought her back. She should still be asleep. Be careful with your words,â
Jiang Yanzhou replied.
He had left half an hour ago, and she was still sound asleep.
âSleeping?â
âYes.â
Lu Mingyu looked at Lu Yangâs bedroom door, which was closed. He didnât open it, nor would he rashly do so. âAre you sure? Donât wait until Yangyang goes missing for forty-eight hours before realizing it.â
With another question, Jiang Yanzhou became a little uncertain. âIs her coat still on the couch?â
âYes,â Lu Mingyu replied.
Jiang Yanzhou continued, âWhat about the white slippers at the entrance?â âNot there,â Lu Mingyu answered.
Lu Yang was wearing white slippers yesterday, and if they were not at the entrance, it meant they were still in her bedroom.
Jiang Yanzhou reassured Lu Mingyu, saying, âSheâs still sleeping. Donât disturb her. â
Lu Mingyuâs tense heart finally relaxed. He sighed and spoke earnestly, âI have a flight this afternoon, so Iâll trouble you to take care of Yangyang for me these days.â
âOkay.â
âI can trust you. Right, Jiang Yanzhou?â Lu Mingyu was somewhat worried. Men are often careless when taking care of their younger sisters, and he feared they wouldnât be thorough enough.
Jiang Yanzhou didnât bother with his question. After a while, he reluctantly responded, â⦠Yes, you can.â
Lu Mingyu walked to the balcony and eagerly shared his experience, âIf Yangyang is in a bad mood, gets angry, and scolds you, just endure it. Then make her a cup of tea or something sweet to win her over with love.â
Jiang Yanzhou was speechless..
