Chapter 35: Tang Si Said Song Yi Was Like A Little Lunatic

Perhaps she was too sad. Song Yi calmly looked away.

At that moment, Song Yi suddenly figured out something.

…

They ate the barbecue and dropped the topic.

That night, Mu Wanxue and Song Yi slept together.

But Song Yi didn’t fall asleep almost all night.

Because she was still thinking about the figure in her study. She was sure it wasn’t an illusion. Besides, she actually wasn’t used to sleeping with others.

So she couldn’t fall asleep.

It was late at night and the room was quiet.

The sky outside the window turned black and dark clouds blotted out the moonlight.

“Boom–” Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, illuminating the room.

It was at that moment that Song Yi felt the person beside her move.

She closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

After closing her eyes, she couldn’t see anything but she heard Mu Wanxue getting up out of bed. After going out, she seemed to have grabbed something from outside.

Then she heard her slowly walking back.

Song Yi clenched the quilt and her fast heartbeat clearly resounded in her ears.

Hearing her gradually approaching, Song Yi felt her heart thumping even more violently, and she was about to turn over and pretend to be awakened by thunder.

“Ring, Ring, Ring—” The ringtone of Song Yi’s cell phone suddenly rang hastily and shrilly in the dark room.

Song Yi’s body shook slightly and she clearly sensed Mu Wanxue’s footsteps pause.

She reached for her cell phone drowsy-eyed and opened her eyes. The caller ID was just a string of numbers.

The call was from a stranger.

Song Yi sat up with her cell phone and turned on the lamp beside the bed. A dim light in the room lit up.

“Boom—” There was another burst of lightning and thunder.

It happened that at this moment, Song Yi saw Mu Wanxue standing in front of the bed, and the moment the lightning flashed, she saw Mu Wanxue staring at her and her face was pale and creepy…

Song Yi was so scared that she almost dropped the phone.

She composed herself and asked, “Huh? Xuexue? Still not sleeping?”

Mu Wanxue raised the water cup in her hand. “I felt a little thirsty, so I got up to drink some water without turning on the lights because I was scared I might wake you up. After all, it’s midnight.”

She spoke calmly and nothing looked off at all.

Song Yi held up the ringing cell phone and nodded. “Let me answer the call. Who the f*ck is calling me at midnight?”

But she was actually very grateful for this person. She was really scared just now.

Song Yi was born an insecure person. Deep down in her heart, she didn’t trust anyone, not even her good friend.

Even if it came to her own father and mother, she wouldn’t trust them wholeheartedly.

She couldn’t forget how she was betrayed before.

Song Yi got up and walked out of the bedroom. “Hello?”

“Song Yi.” From the other side of the line, Tang Si’s voice slowly rang out which sounded exceptionally calm and clear on a rainy night.

Song Yi was surprised. “Captain Tang?”

“Yes, I’m across from your home.” He explained briefly without any nonsense.

Song Yi was stunned for a second, but then she seemed to feel hopeful and raised her head instantly, only to discover nothing outside. “…”

She tousled her hair a little irritably. “You think that’s funny?”

“Slippers, pajamas, living room, messy hair, grumpy face, like a little lunatic.” On the phone, Tang Si’s calm voice rang out.

His voice was lazy yet calm, clear, and deep.

“You’re a lunatic, not me—” Song Yi said, raising her head, and when she saw her reflection in the glass in the living room, she paused and her tone rose. “Are you watching me?”

“I’m saving you. Otherwise, tomorrow morning you’ll—”

Song Yi: “Can you stop joking?”

She was scared out of her wits now.
