Chapter 368 Xing Hans Quirk (2/2)

Then his eyes narrowed.

”Are you telling me that you guys sleep together?” Nitocris asked, his voice having a slight edge to it.

”Yes,” Kyle replied, ”We share a room.”

”Same bed?” Nitocris drawled, his voice lazy but there was a dangerous glint in his eye that flashed by too quickly to be noticed.

”Of course not,” Kyle said innocently, ”He's like an octopus in bed. Can't sleep with him at all.”

”So you have shared a bed before,” Nitocris said, picking up on that sentence, his fingers digging into his palm unnoticed, ”So you're telling me Xing Han can't sleep by himself?”

Xing Han turned to glare at Nitocris, and he puffed up his chest, ”So?!”

”Didn't think you're still such a baby,” Nitocris replied, while lowering his eyes downwards, his lashes hiding his eyes darkened a bit.

”Yes, I'm a baby! SO WHAT?!” Xing Han shouted, unabashed.

Nitocris grinned, completely captivated by the straightforwardness of Xing Han.

Not only was his little puppy so pure, so honest. He didn't hide anything at all. You can see how he felt from his facial expressions, and his mouth was never full of honeyed words or false praises. He said whatever was on his mind.

It was so refreshing.

Nitocris always had to be on high alert whenever he listened to people talk, or when he read reports. He had to be able to 'read between the lines' or determine whether someone was lying or not. He had to constantly check if the people around him would betray him at any time.

He was always on edge, and could never trust anyone fully.

People rarely said what they think.

But Xing Han?

”Then sleep in my room first, while I talk with Kyle,” Nitocris said, going into his room, not waiting for an answer.

Xing Han stood there, his mouth wide open.

”Did he ... did he just say I can stay as well?” Xing Han asked Kyle, grabbing his arm and shaking it. He couldn't believe it. After making fun of him like that, he .. he .. he said he could sleep in the room?

”Yeah, he did,” Kyle answered, surprised.

Kyle figured that if Big Bro Nic said Xing Han could stay, it meant that they weren't going to discuss Black Dragon matters. Despite that, Kyle knew that they would be discussing confidential matters, so he was very happy that Nitocris trusted Xing Han enough to let him in.

”Coming?” Kyle asked.

Xing Han rushed forward to stand next to Kyle. You didn't need to ask him twice! Not only can he hang around, he will make sure that the Thing won't take advantage of his BFF! Not too much work!

Kyle knocked on Nitocris's bedroom door. Upon hearing 'Enter', he opened the door.

Xing Han stood outside, his eyes wide open as he looked inside Nitocris's room for the very first time.
