Chapter 52: Sleeping
Gu Huai walked to the room he had reserved, looked at the disappearing card on the door and frowned.
What's going on?
He remembered sticking the card to the door.
He raised his hand and knocked on the door, but there was no movement inside.
Tried to twist the handle, the door was not locked, and he opened it easily.
He glanced at the illuminated room and slowly walked inside.
The interior is decorated in a simple and crisp European style, and the sound of leather shoes stepping on the wooden floor is especially noticeable in the quiet room.
After a few steps, he saw his card placed in the entrance door, and he picked it up and held it in his hand.
After turning the hallway, his steps suddenly stopped.
Because it was only a temporary rest suite, there was no fine division between the living room and the rest and sleeping area, and the light-colored veil blocking in front of him undoubtedly reminded him that someone was resting in it.
Gu Huai didn't have the habit and interest of peeping at other people's sleep, so when he saw this, he faintly withdrew his gaze and planned to walk outside.
He only came in to get his card back.
Now that there was already an occupant in this room, he would find another one.
But when he walked around the corner, perhaps because the window was unrelated, the breeze gently blew the corner of the fluttering veil, and he glanced at it with a ghostly glanceβ
Behind the soft veil, the girl lay on the bed, the bright light outside the window shone on her sleeping and peaceful white face, and the loose black hair was like a silky and shiny brocade in the sun.
It's even more beautiful than his proudest oil paintings.
Gu Huai stood in place as if he was frozen, watching this scene like this.
After a long time, he finally came to his senses and realized his gaffe, and he lowered his eyelashes unnaturally.
Enough is enough, just enough, don't make mistakes again and again.
He said this to himself in his heart.
But his steps were uncontrollable, step by step, slowly but resolutely, behind the veil.
His steps were so light that the girl on the bed did not seem to notice that there was anyone standing in front of her bed, and was still asleep soundly without knowing anything.
Gu Huai stared at her with those dark and deep eyes, deep, almost greedy.
It was the first time since he had entered school that he could be in such close proximity to her in the same space.
The long-suppressed depression in my heart was well relieved under the gaze of this moment.
It's like a desert traveler who has been out of water for a long time, and suddenly encounters a rain that can nourish him.
Gu Huai told a clumsy lie to herself in the sound of a faster heartbeat: It doesn't matter, she is still asleep anyway, and she won't know.
You can stay for a while and it won't make any difference.
Thinking so, he even sat down on the edge of the bed and stared at her silently.
After a while, Ning Yu's eyes were closed, and his eyebrows suddenly wrinkled deeply.
Gu Huai looked at the brilliant and warm sunlight projected on her face, leaned over slightly, raised his hand to cover her face, and covered the light for her.
But this kind of action undoubtedly shortened the distance between him and Ning Yi even more-
His eyelashes fluttered slightly, his eyes unblinkingly as he looked at her, his heart beating faster and faster at the girl who was almost equal to lying beneath him.
And Ning Yu's delicate brows became tighter and tighter, still muttering something.
Gu Huai realized this: it turned out to be a nightmare.
Ning Yu's thin white hand tightened the quilt in front of him, and his reaction was even greater.
Just as Gu Huai hesitated to pat her comfortably with his hand, Ning Yi suddenly got up and stretched out his arms to hug him directly.
Gu Huai's hand was still hanging in the void, and his heart seemed to skip a few beats.
It was also at this time that he discovered that Ning Yu was wearing a solid-colored suspender nightdress when he slept.
Under the thin silk cloth are youthful and beautiful lines, which are closely attached to him.
The thin red that erupted quickly spread from his face to the base of his ears, and even his breath was full of a burning breath.
Until Ning Yi's confused words, his faintly hot blood instantly cooled and froze.
"Ji Ming ......"
Her tone was hazy with the haze she had just woken up, and her final note was unusually coquettish.
"Why did you just come here now, I waited for you to fall asleep."
She didn't seem to realize that something was wrong, and hugged him and said a little coquettishly.
The blush instantly turned into a complete coldness and faded from his face, Gu Huai gently pushed her away and stood up.
His pride and pride never allowed him to impersonate someone else temporarily.
Lu Jiming...... Not here. β
Ning Yi's eyes widened slightly, very surprised that he would appear here: "Why are you here?" β
Gu Huai forced himself to take his gaze away from her snow-white shoulders.
Try to keep yourself calm and answer: "I originally stuck the card on the door, but I just came over and found that the card was missing and the door was not locked, so I wanted to come in and have a look." β
He said the truth, but he only said half of it, did not say that he saw her behind him, and then involuntarily walked up to her......
Ning Yi thought for a while after hearing this: "So that's the case, I didn't see it when I came." β
She smiled and said, "Didn't the school appeal to students not to leave their cards on the door recently to prevent them from being lost?" β
Gu Huai experienced what happened just now, and he didn't care about these little things at all, so he nodded casually.
He drooped his eyelids unnaturally, hiding the emotions under his eyes: "Then I'll go first." β
"Hmm."
Ning Yi's voice was soft, and there was a hint of a relaxed and happy smile: "Then I'll wait for Ji Ming." β
The happy smile between her words made Gu Huai's heart feel like it was strangled by an extremely thin and sharp silk thread, and it was suffocating pain.
He walked briskly out of the room.
After walking for a while, he almost ran into someone walking towards him.
"Gu Huai?"
Lu Jiming looked at Gu Huai, who was distracted in front of him, and was a little surprised.
He naturally knew that Gu Huai's habit was to rest here every day, and his habit was almost immutable day after day.
Gu Huai lifted his eyes, only glanced at him, hummed lightly and left directly.
Lu Jiming frowned slightly and looked at his back thoughtfully.
Because he didn't know if it was his delusion, he had keenly sensed the slightest hostility from Gu Huai just now.
And Gu Huai also stopped walking around the corner of the corridor.
Thinking of the direction Lu Jiming had just gone, as well as Ning Yi's unabashed actions and outfits, the hand hanging down his side unconsciously tightened slowly.
There were obvious clusters of anger reflected in his dark eyes, and even his always fair and indifferent cheeks were filled with faint anger.
Has their relationship progressed to this point?
At this time, his brain still reminded him of some imaginary images that were chaotic and made his blood faintly agitated.
He was even more angry, his face turned completely cold, but the anger in his eyes became more and more vigorous.
