CHAPTER XLIV

New Year's Day

He was also looking at her, his eyes were obviously meeting her gaze, but in the end he was still a little dazed and scattered.

Ling Xiao looked at him silently for a long time, and only after a while did he let out a soft "um" and lowered his eyes slightly. After another moment, she opened her mouth again, and whispered:

"Well, I ...... Know. ”

As she spoke, she had already turned her head to look out the window and stopped looking at him.

At the age of fifteen or sixteen, she is no longer a child in Datang, and even if a girl from an ordinary family is not married at this age, at least she is already engaged. Rao is the children of the rivers and lakes are informal, and Wanhua Valley is open-minded and comfortable, so she is not so concerned about lifelong events, but ...... She at least understands everything she needs to know.

When she first came, she knew what kind of eyes and look Ye Lin looked at her, and what she was like now.

It's so different.

The sound of fireworks and firecrackers outside the window is still ringing one after another, and there is no intention of stopping.

Ye Lin didn't seem to be satisfied with her answer, he was quiet for a while, and soon he moved again-he tightened his arms and pressed her tightly in his arms, leaned over and buried his face in her shoulder socket and rubbed it gently, and called her in a low voice in a hoarse voice:

"Lingxiao."

His hair was a little stiff, and when it rubbed against the side of his neck, it immediately brought a burst of itching.

No matter how free and easy Ling Xiao was, after all, he had never been so close to the opposite sex, and he tensed up his nerves and struggled stiffly.

Once she uses her strength, how can Ye Lin be her opponent? In the blink of an eye, the little girl had broken free from his shackles and sat beside him not far away.

The man who had drunk too much obviously didn't even think clearly, and slowly looked down at his arms, and then raised his head to look at Ling Xiao, his expression was slightly confused, as if he hadn't been able to understand for a while...... Why did the little girl who was still in his arms just now suddenly disappear and changed to the side.

"Ling Xiao ......" Ye Lin frowned, propped up the sofa and looked at her steadily, and called her in a low voice again.

The voice actually seemed a little ...... Grievance?

Ling Xiao answered, but did not speak.

The man's heroic brows furrowed even tighter, and he didn't know why he was a little childish with the aggrieved look on his face. He rubbed beside Ling Xiao again, sat down next to her tightly, and then seemed to hesitate for a moment, and slowly stretched out his hand.

He approached her cautiously, and at the same time secretly looked at her from time to time, his movements full of tentative caution and nervousness. It was not until he finally took the man in his arms again, and seeing that she did not seem to be angry or struggling any longer, he tentatively increased his strength again, and hugged her as tightly as before, and then stared at her so tightly that he could hardly blink.

Like ...... I'm afraid that if he blinks an eye, she will break free and run away.

"Drink too much and get drunk, don't you?" Ling Xiao glared at him, raised his chin slightly and nodded at him, "If you don't let go, I'll let you go?" ”

Ye Lin didn't know if he really didn't hear it or pretended not to hear it, anyway, he didn't react to it in the slightest, still hugged her tightly, and then ...... Stared straight at her.

Ling Xiao really raised his hand, clasped his wrist under the man's gaze, and then ......

Then he hesitated for a long time, and finally he was defeated again in the man's eyes and straight gaze - he couldn't do it at all.

"I've never seen you so bold in my life. Do you remember when you wake up tomorrow? Forget it, what do I have to worry about with a drunk......" Ling Xiao muttered a few words angrily, but he was really annoyed by his appearance, sighed, and touched the top of his head with a smile, "If you wake up tomorrow and remember what you said today, then we will ...... Well, let's fall in love. ”

Her tone was helpless, but her eyes couldn't see the slightest hint of jokes, and in the end, she was a little vague, but in the end she still said it generously. Ye Lin didn't know whether he heard it or understood it, so he suddenly laughed a little stupidly, stretched his neck and came over again.

Her white ears are pink, and she looks unusually cute. He barely had time to think about it, his body had already followed his instinct and kissed her ear.

Ling Xiao trembled almost instinctively, only to feel that his whole body froze.

Ye Lin seemed to think her reaction was very interesting, and couldn't help but kiss the pink earlobe in the white of her eyes again, and the next moment she only felt a numbness on the back of her neck, and the whole person was unconscious.

"It's endless, it's back!" Ling Xiao stiffened his movements and withdrew the hand that had just clicked on the man's sleeping hole, glared fiercely at Ye Lin, who had fallen into a deep sleep, and hesitated for a moment, but he still didn't push the person away.

……

The next morning, Ye Lin was woken up by the sound of firecrackers.

The sound of firecrackers on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year is not as lively as at midnight, but people are always used to lighting a few firecrackers when they go out in the morning, as a means of a good start to the new year. * At the time of o'clock, the people who kept the New Year got up one after another to go out, and the sound of firecrackers began to sound in the community from time to time.

Ye Lin opened his eyes with some difficulty, and his first feeling was a headache - he saw the two empty liquor bottles on the coffee table at a glance.

He drank a good amount of wine, but he couldn't hold up so much liquor, and the night before was really "super level play".

Ye Lin stretched out his hand to press the corner of his forehead, which was still aching, but when he raised his hand, he suddenly stiffened slightly, and lowered his head in disbelief - the little girl was lying in his arms, still sleeping sweetly.

In the head...... There was a moment of blankness.

Last night...... What's going on? Why did they both sleep on the sofa in the living room, and they were still ...... This posture? Ye Lin tried hard to recall, but he could only vaguely recall a few fragments, and the hangover made his headache worse and worse.

She rested on his chest, her long black hair scattered in his arms and hanging on his arms, her eyes closed, her eyebrows stretched, but she seemed more and more petite, and even had a kind of well-behaved tranquility that she could hardly see.

But he couldn't help but think of her usual appearance with her eyebrows fluttering - Ye Ershao, who finally came back to his senses, suddenly found that he was not only Yan Kong, but also a shaking.

Ye Lin carefully raised his hand, rubbed the corners of his eyes, and gave up thinking for a while, but at the end he was a little hesitant, hesitating not knowing whether to maintain the status quo or wake her up, or ...... Should I carry her to the bed in my room and have a good rest?

He couldn't make up his mind for a while, but he felt a little happy - the last time he was in the car, he woke up as soon as he got close to her, and now she can fall asleep in his arms, does that mean ...... Is she getting used to him and getting close to him?

Ye Lin's mood suddenly improved, and after thinking about it, he was still reluctant to carry her to the room, let alone wake her up, just maintained the status quo, lowered his head and looked at her fixedly-she was so alert, she would definitely wake up if she moved a little, where did he have any chance to hug her? It's better to maintain the status quo, at least ...... The current posture is really close enough.

It's just that Ye Ershao still couldn't look at it so unscrupulously for too long after all-after a while, the little girl's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she was obviously about to wake up.

Ye Lin didn't know what to do at this time, but after a while, he suddenly stopped, didn't do anything, and just looked at her directly.

When she wakes up, how does she react when she sees her sleeping in her arms? Angry, or ...... Don't mind?

Ye Lin held his breath.

The little girl's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and the phoenix eyes finally opened slowly again, at first she was still a little confused and confused, she reached out and rubbed it, and soon became clear again.

Then she sat up with his chest propped up, looked around, and seemed to have finally regained all the memories of the previous night, and nodded to the man's gaze, and greeted him with a natural expression:

"Early."

"Early." Ye Lin subconsciously responded, but his consciousness didn't have time to turn back for a while, so he watched her stand still on the sofa in a daze, brushed her long silky hair, and yawned softly.

"I'm going to take a shower."

She was obviously still a little sleepy, her soft voice was a little lazy and hoarse, and she seemed to glance at him casually when she spoke, and there seemed to be some ...... in her eyes Abandon.

"Oh me, I'll take a shower too." Ye Lin almost immediately got off the sofa and stood still, and subconsciously replied - I always feel ...... Her phrase "full of alcohol" seems to be disgusting herself.

Ling Xiao let out a noncommittal "um", stopped talking, and turned back to the room.

Ye Lin stood in place, looking at her back with some distraction, until he finally disappeared from his sight completely, and then pressed the corner of her forehead that was still hurting again-her reaction as if nothing had happened at all, what ...... What does it mean?

Ye Ershao pondered his sweetheart's thoughts with a little headache, and walked to his room, but he didn't know why he always felt a little irritable, like - something extremely important was forgotten by him, and he couldn't think of anything for a while.

Both the master bedroom and guest room have their own bathrooms, so you don't have to worry about rushing to take a shower. Ye Lin took the clothes he wanted to change into and went into the bathroom, turned on the faucet and stood under the shower, the hot water sprinkled on his body, as if he was completely washing away and dispersing the last remaining bit of alcohol little by little.

The pores on the upper and lower parts of the body gradually relaxed, and the headache caused by the hangover finally disappeared completely.

Then last night's memories finally began to come back little by little - at first it was a separate fragment, some fell out with their father and brother at home, and came back with wine in the middle of the night, some sat on the sofa with Ling Xiao to drink and watch the Spring Festival Gala, and some watched the fireworks with her at midnight to greet each other......

The fragments are then connected chronologically little by little, and finally strung together into a complete memory, without any gaps or jumps.

Ye Lin quickly washed his body and dried it, casually put on his pajamas and ran out, stopped at the door of the guest room and knocked on the door "bang bang", shouting while knocking:

"Lingxiao! Does what you said last night still count? ”。
