Chapter 56: Good Morning
Ciri sat on the ground and looked at Pei Rui, watching him breathe evenly with his eyes closed. As if remembering something difficult, his brows furrowed slightly, looking serious and not easy to approach. Siri held out a finger. Gently running his eyebrows across his cheek, she opened her hand and touched Pei Rui's face.
Thinking about how lucky it is to be cared for and protected by such a man.
Strange to say, Min Xili has always felt that he and he are not like people of the same world. Only now do I realize that I am alone in this world, and no one is in the same world.
He trusts Pei Rui, so sure.
The power of trust is more powerful than any emotion, just like a little fox who knows that the hunter has the ability to hurt her, but is still willing to expose her soft belly to him, believing that he will not hurt herself.
Min Xili was lying on the sofa, although Pei Rui had fallen asleep, it still made her feel at ease.
Gradually, her eyelids became heavier, and she fell asleep like that.
At seven o'clock in the morning, Pei Rui woke up on time, he felt that his neck and shoulders were very uncomfortable, only to find that he was sleeping on the sofa, and Min Xili sat on the ground all night.
He rubbed his temples, having no idea how he got home after getting drunk. But I saw Min Xili lying next to him, covered with a blanket, and it seemed that he had been here all night.
Uncle Ao entered the door and came to him lightly: "Miss Min guarded you all night last night. I wanted to wake her up, but I think you probably like her watching you like that. So I took a blanket and covered her. ”
Pei Rui saw Uncle Ao's fatherly look: "Nosy." ”
Uncle Ao pursed his mouth and deliberately provoked him: "Then you have to blame me for cooling her, I'll wake her up now." ”
Pei Rui gently knocked off the hand he was going to pat Min Xili on the back, and was defeated: "Empathetic." ”
Uncle Ao shook his head and replied to him: "Duplicity." ”
Pei Rui saw that Uncle Ao had left in an interesting way, so he got up gently, squatted down and hugged her. She is so thin, so light, Pei Rui thinks that she has worked so hard, why didn't she raise her a little fatter, so that her face is a little fleshy, and she doesn't look so fragile and fragile.
Probably because he felt a slight bump, Min Xili "hummed" twice, and was so soft that he drilled into Pei Rui's arms like a kitten, probably a little cold.
When he woke up again, Min Xili found himself already in bed, and he was well covered with the quilt.
It seems that nothing happened last night, and when I looked at the time, it was already past nine o'clock. She has no memory of when she went upstairs, except that she had a dream in which she was on a warm tree, and the tree seemed to have an aura, and the branches of the tree made a nest for her. She curled up inside, not at all awkward, but very warm and comfortable.
got up and went downstairs, Pei Rui didn't know when he woke up, took a shower and changed his clothes, his hair was not blown, he combed all the half-dried back of his head, and was reading an English magazine with a cup of coffee.
"Awake?" Pei Rui saw her approaching, got up and went to the pot to bring out the porridge made for her.
Min Xili was eating, and he looked at him carefully with his head sideways.
"I was drunk last night, so I didn't scare you, right?" Pei Rui was very confident in his wine, although he couldn't remember it clearly, but he shouldn't have done anything out of the ordinary. If there were, Song Si should have sent a bunch of messages to remind him.
"No, you came back and slept. Min Xili lied.
"Then why did you fall asleep next to me when I woke up?" Pei Rui looked at her and asked, "Guarded me all night?"
Min Xili licked his lips and stirred as if the porridge was hot: "I...... You pulled me and didn't let me go, so I stayed with you. Otherwise, why don't I sleep in a good bed......"
"Oh, that's right. Pei Rui was a little disappointed, and he didn't even hide his tone.
Min Xili buried his head as if he was going to bury it in the bowl, and no longer looked at him or spoke. When Pei Rui saw her like this, he knew that she had lied. I don't tear it down, and I cover my face with a magazine to block a smile.
Min Xili drank porridge, and always felt that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing: "Pei Rui......"
"What's wrong?" Pei Rui asked her, putting down the magazine.
As soon as Min Xili saw his face, he remembered that he touched his silhouette last night, like a greedy dragon, and instantly blushed in embarrassment, buried his head and said, "It's nothing...... Called you. ”
"Min Xili. Pei Rui also called her name.
"Huh?"
"Your name is nice. Pei Rui spoke quite sincerely, although she didn't understand why, but she could see that she wanted to talk to herself.
Min Xili smiled and muttered: "It's not good, I don't like this name." ”
"Because of Charcili?"
"Not really. Min Xili said: "When I was a child, because of this name, Qi Liqian always called me thin mud, thin mud...... What girl would like a name like that? ”
Pei Rui laughed, but was glared back by Min Xili. I really don't blame myself for never taking Qi Liqian in my eyes, and with such an attitude towards the girl I like, I am really destined to be lonely for a lifetime.
"Speaking of which, you're all Ali/Li. Pei Rui said: "My eldest sister called me this when she was a child, but later she only called me by my name. My mother used to call the most ......"
"Is it called Ah Rui?" Min Xili thought that Pei Rui was almost thirty years old, what kind of title in Yecheng is just to call a child or someone younger than himself, he has to drink his mother's soup when he is drunk, he should miss her very much: "Actually, I think your name is good, Pei Rui, Pei Rui...... It's a good fit for you. ”
"Did anyone call you Ali?" Pei Rui felt that this topic was the same as watching TV and chatting, although it was all nonsense, but it made him extra patient.
Min Xili shook his head: "No, they all call me by name." ”
Pei Rui said: "My name was chosen by my mother, and I know the meaning of accessibility. Your name must have been chosen by your mother, Charcili should be a very important place to her, and she must have felt that you were also important. Sometimes the name, although it is a pronoun, but the person who took it should have taken it with heart. ”
Min Xili laughed, he was really wise and wise, obviously he wanted to comfort him, but he didn't expect to be comforted by him instead: "Actually, I had a nickname when I was a child, and Qi Liqian took it." But then I got into an argument with him, and I didn't allow him to call me that anymore. ”
This is the second time Min Xili has mentioned Qi Liqian today, Pei Rui felt that she seemed to want to say something, but she was afraid that she would not talk about it if she asked, so she waited patiently.
Sure enough, Min Xili opened his mouth: "Do you want to hear about me and Qi Liqian?"
Pei Rui thought that he had lived a few more years, it was a good thing to be patient, and he pretended to be surprised, but immediately he had that face that was not salty or light: "Everything about you, if you want to talk, I am willing to listen." ”
