“You can sleep in Mingyu’s room, or maybe a nearby hotel.” Lu Yang did not look at his expression, so she didn’t notice the subtle hint of perplexity in his confusion
“No… Mingyu is coming back tomorrow to pack things up, so you can’t stay in his room. Forget it… do whatever you want, I’m tired,” she continued, closing her eyes again, pulling the blanket, and going back to sleep.
Watching her sleeping face, Jiang Yanzhou couldn’t help but silently laugh.
Anyone who didn’t know would think she was sleepwalking.
Moreover, Lu Yang really trusted him.
The last time he pretended to be asleep, she didn’t wake him up and just lay beside him.
Lu Yang didn’t want to make their relationship public at the moment, and he wouldn’t 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 one’s heart.
“Yanzhou, I had a nightmare. Do you have a way to help me fall asleep?” She was clearly tired, but she just couldn’t sleep.
“Can I read you a collection of poems you like?”
Lu Yang’s brain froze, unable to think or move. She didn’t ask him how he knew which collection of poems she liked, and simply responded hesitantly, “Okay.”
Jiang Yanzhou gently pulled a chair and sat up straight, lowering his voice, and began reciting, “I offer you lean streets, desperate sunsets, the moon of the jagged suburbs.”
He held her hand, pressing her fingers onto the prominent veins, lightly scratching them with an almost imperceptible touch.
“I offer you the loyalty of a man who has never been loyal.”
With a natural and smooth delivery, occasional pauses in his voice, like a refreshing fine wine, Lu Yang’s furrowed brow gradually relaxed.
“I can give you my loneliness, my darkness, the hunger of my heart…”
His voice turned into intoxicating incense that filled her dreams, driving away the nightmares, leaving only beautiful dreams.
“I am trying to bribe you with uncertainty, with danger, with defeat.”
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, “Yangyang, I’m back.”
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.
“Jiang Yanzhou, why isn’t my sister at home? Are you sure you safely brought her back?” Lu Mingyu sounded a bit nervous. “There are many bad people these days, and someone as ethereal as Yang yng is in danger. Are you sure you brought her back?”
“I brought her back. She should still be asleep. Be careful with your words,”
Jiang Yanzhou replied.
He had left half an hour ago, and she was still sound asleep.
“Sleeping?”
“Yes.”
Lu Mingyu looked at Lu Yang’s bedroom door, which was closed. He didn’t open it, nor would he rashly do so. “Are you sure? Don’t wait until Yangyang goes missing for forty-eight hours before realizing it.”
With another question, Jiang Yanzhou became a little uncertain. “Is her coat still on the couch?”
“Yes,” Lu Mingyu replied.
Jiang Yanzhou continued, “What about the white slippers at the entrance?” “Not there,” 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, “She’s still sleeping. Don’t disturb her. ”
Lu Mingyu’s tense heart finally relaxed. He sighed and spoke earnestly, “I have a flight this afternoon, so I’ll trouble you to take care of Yangyang for me these days.”
“Okay.”
“I can trust you. Right, Jiang Yanzhou?” Lu Mingyu was somewhat worried. Men are often careless when taking care of their younger sisters, and he feared they wouldn’t be thorough enough.
Jiang Yanzhou didn’t bother with his question. After a while, he reluctantly responded, “… Yes, you can.”
Lu Mingyu walked to the balcony and eagerly shared his experience, “If 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.”
Jiang Yanzhou was speechless..
