Chapter 143 Don’t Bother with It. I Can Manage Myself. (1/2)
Xia Ning finds that she tends to get awake easily.
Her first action after opening her eyes is to reach for the phone.
Before she fell asleep, the phone was put there with the loudspeaker on. She could clearly hear Yi Yunrui’s breath and then naturally fell asleep.
However, she doesn’t know why she is awake. It seems that some tinny sound wakes her up.
She presses on the screen and finds that Yi Yunrui has hung up. It is two forty at night.
It’s two forty… there is still quite a long time before dawn. Why is she awake?
It is late at night and it is quiet everywhere. Xia Ning takes a deep breath and hears some tinny sounds from outside.
Ah?
She holds her breath and listens carefully.
There are sounds outside, very tinny sounds. It seems to be someone’s voice.
Thinking of this, Xia Ning tiptoes to the door and opens it lightly. She looks out.
“Have a good sleep. Don’t walk around.”
The tinny voice is heard. Xia Ning recognizes that it is Yi Yunyi’s voice.
Then she hears the door being closed and sees Yi Yunyi walk to his own room.
Yi Yunyi comes out from Gu Ruoruo’s bedroom.
Xia Ning blinks her eyes. As far as she knows, Brother Yi Yunyi has his own house outside and he seldom comes home, not to mention staying at home overnight.
This evening, Yi Yunyi not only comes home, but also stays at home for the night. In the midnight, he even goes to see Gu Ruoruo. Seemingly, he goes to check on Gu Ruoruo’s wounds.
Xia Ning slightly lifts her lips and closes the door.
It seems that the elder Brother has…some feelings towards Gu Ruoruo.
Xia Ning goes back to her bed and sits there with her phone in a trance.
She wonders whether Yi Yunrui was sleeping. Every time when she woke up, she was always held by powerful arms. But today, the pillow beside her is empty.
She really misses him, very much.
It turns out that unconsciously she has been used to sleeping in Yi Yunrui’s embrace. Now, Yi Yunrui is not here and she can’t fall asleep.
She gives a light sigh and looks through the window to count the stars.
Xia Ning fell asleep late and couldn’t get up early the next day. When she wakes up, it is almost eleven.
Seeing the time, Xia Ning almost jumps up from the bed. Get up so late in her mother-in-law’s house. It is…
Hurriedly she gets dressed, does the washing and goes downstairs. Then she sees Zheng Yao, Wan Liqing and Gu Ruoruo chatting in the living room. They laugh from time to time.
Xia Ning gives a sigh of relief. She puts on a sunny smile: “Mom, Liqing, Ruoruo, good afternoon.”
“Good afternoon, Sister Xia.”
“Good afternoon, Director.”
“You are awake. Come to talk with us. The two girls you bring here are really funny. They make me laugh for the whole day.”
Zheng Yao says and waves her hand at Xia Ning.
Xia Ning smiles and walks to her. Zheng Yao holds her hand.
“Did you sleep well last night?” Zheng Yao asks kindly.
Xia Ning nods: “Yes, I slept well. Thank you, Mom.”
