Chapter 133: Kiss me

Perhaps because he ran too urgently, a thin layer of sweat seeped out from his forehead, sliding from between the hair on his forehead along his brow bone to his jaw. Shen Li's hand was wrapped in his scorching palm temperature. He lowered his head, calmed his breathing, and then looked up at her, "Why did you come here alone?"

Shen Li leaned forward slightly, facing his gaze, raised her hand to cup his face, and helped him wipe away the sweat that had flowed down. Remembering his anxiety on the phone just now, her expression remained that same faint, cold clarity: "Don't worry about me."

"I just couldn't sleep, so I wanted to come sit for a while."

Immediately after, she sat to the side, leaving half a space for him to get up and sit beside her.

After Xie Qin sat down, his gaze fell on her and didn't move away.

She looked at the sky ahead, "In a while, the sun will rise."

"..."

"Xie Qin, have you ever seen the sunrise?"

Xie Qin lowered his head, looking down at her soft and cold profile, "So... you couldn't sleep, so you came here to watch the sunrise?"

Shen Li turned her head, looked into his eyes, and nodded: "Mm."

Then she told him.

"Sometimes I wake up very early, and I come here."

"What about you?"

She blinked and asked him.

Xie Qin wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say a word, just reached out and hugged her shoulders, leaning toward her, "I was afraid my partner was lost, so I came to find her."

Shen Li's lips curved into an arc. She thought that it was probably Zhang Zixin who woke up in the middle of the night and saw she wasn't in the dormitory, so she asked Xie Qin to find her, which was why his voice on the phone was so anxious.

Here, she had Xie Qin, and she also had friends.

There were also people who would worry about her.

She... liked Wuchuan.

The clouds were very thin, and the moon was still hidden behind the thin mist, leaking a hazy light.

The two sat quietly for a while. After a while, Xie Qin's voice fell slowly, "Next time you can't sleep, tell me, I'll accompany you."

Shen Li: "Mm."

From now on, she wouldn't have to be alone anymore.

Thank you, Xie Qin...

Thank you for liking me.

And thank you...

For being willing to accompany me.

Half an hour later, the first ray of sunlight broke through the dawn, pierced through the clouds, spread out in the sky, and fell on the water, shattering into a piece of gentle golden light.

That warm beam of light fell on Shen Li's fair and youthful face, but that trace of warmth still didn't melt the coldness in her eyes. The fine fuzz on her face was clearly seen by Xie Qin.

The wind swept through her long hair draped over her shoulders. Shen Li remained quiet, looking up at the sunrise.

Xie Qin's lazy eyes still hadn't dissipated the sleepiness, he squinted lazily, took out his phone from his pocket, and checked the time.

6:45, almost 7:00.

"Go back?"

Shen Li nodded: "Mm."

Xie Qin held her hand and stood up, intending to send her back. After walking a step, he found he couldn't pull her, so he stopped, turned around, and looked back at her with raised eyebrows.

Shen Li pressed her thin lips together, her eyes staring at him like that, and the next second, she blurted out a request: "Xie Qin, can you carry me on your back? I don't want to walk anymore."

Xie Qin moved his feet, tilted his head, and looked at her amusedly, "You don't hesitate at all when ordering me around. You went out alone and walked such a long way, and I didn't see you complaining about being tired."

"Now that you're going back, you don't want to walk?"

She nodded seriously.

Afraid he wouldn't agree.

Shen Li added another sentence, "Next time you don't want to walk, I'll carry you too."

It was amazing she could say this with a straight face.

Xie Qin walked a few steps closer to her, standing face to face with her. His rebellious aura didn't diminish, and the obvious height difference was immediately apparent. Shen Li wasn't too short among girls, she was 1.65 meters, and with shoes on, she was about 1.67 meters, but in front of Xie Qin, this height seemed petite. She was only at his chest level. Usually, when the two looked at each other and talked, Master Xie had to lower his head, or else he had to bend his waist.

Carry him?

Usually when walking, Xie Qin was afraid she would fall.

A low laugh spilled from his throat, he lowered his head, raising his eyebrows.

This gap.

You carry me?

Are you sure?!

The two stared at each other.

A while...

"Carry... sure." He said in a slow tone.

"..."

"Kiss me."

The moment she saw him appear, all the bad moods in her heart disappeared.

Now she was so sleepy she didn't want to walk a single step...

So when Xie Qin proposed this condition, Shen Li almost didn't hesitate at all, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him on the face.

Xie Qin laughed out loud, then turned around, bent his knees and half-squatted: "Get on."

Hearing these two words, Shen Li's mouth curved into an arc, she wrapped her arms around his neck, and climbed onto his back.

This was the first time Xie Qin had carried her on his back. His back was very sturdy, and she could feel his warm body temperature through his clothes. Shen Li enjoyed his service with peace of mind, not shy, just feeling it was a very normal thing.

She treated him as free labor.

Xie Qin bounced her slightly, turned his head, and reminded her: "I can't get into the girls' dormitory, don't fall asleep."

Shen Li hugged his neck and leaned securely on his back, "Mm, I won't."

Walking from the girls' dormitory, at her speed, it would take about twenty minutes or more. Xie Qin didn't walk fast, nor slow, it was just that the person on his back had no weight at all, she was still too light.

At this time, there were quite a few people going to the classroom for the first class, and everyone who saw Xie Qin carrying someone couldn't help but look back at him a few times.

When they reached downstairs at the dormitory, Xie Qin turned his head and looked at the person sleeping on his back. She was sleeping comfortably, "Wake up and do questions, wifey."

Shen Li opened her eyes, seemingly not having slept enough, looking vaguely at the open dormitory door, "Can you carry me upstairs?"

"What do you think?"

"No." She hadn't woken up yet, didn't want to move, and the hand hugging his neck just tightened.

Xie Qin was choked by her around the Adam's apple, too tight, a bit unable to breathe, but still patiently coaxed: "I would like to go up, at worst I'll get a disciplinary action, but..."

"I'm afraid if I see something I shouldn't see, and someone... wants me to take responsibility, wants to cling to me, don't you think?"

Mm...

Shen Li woke up for three seconds, and felt a bit of a crisis after what he said. This really didn't seem very good.

Then she took the initiative to get down from Xie Qin's back.

With her head lowered, she didn't look at him and was about to go upstairs.

Xie Qin: "Shen Li! Watch the road properly."

Shen Li still responded.

Nodded.

Shen Li, who was this sleepy, watching her back, Xie Qin couldn't help but laugh, thinking... at this time, if he wanted to take advantage of someone's precarious state and be a scoundrel, no matter what condition he proposed, she would definitely agree.

Shen Li returned to the dormitory...

Zhao Zhouyuan was already awake and preparing to go to class.

Zhang Zixin was still wearing an eye mask, plugging in Apple noise-canceling headphones, sleeping soundly on the bed. She went to sleep quite late last night and usually wouldn't get up until around twelve noon. ===== CHAPTER 134 =====
