Chapter 67: Whole night, Being sleepless (1/2)
TL: flarewk
..........Mn?
What happened?
Had something happened ?
Was time being frozen?
How come there's no further actions already?
Numerous queries rose within my mind, which made me unresistingly feel like opening up my eyes. But then I'm afraid that I'll be seeing upon Ke Ling's body, along with that expression that was close to being broken, hence not daring to unfurl up my eyes like that.
So, I didn't know what sort of changes had occurred.
I originally already was in hopelessness, not retaliating anymore as such, preparing to shoulder upon the outcome that arose due to not being able to manage the relationship between me and my meimeis properly, with the result that after I had said that sentence out, there wasn't any movements anymore.
Mm..........was it that sentence that had created upon a certain effect already?
Ultimately, I still unresistingly secretly peeped open my left eye, squinting it peeking at Ke Ling's expression.
Ke Ling..........her entirety had been frozen already.
Her eyeballs was like the rusted cores of a lock, not moving a single inch anymore, with zero focus within her pupils. I'm not even sure of where exactly she was looking at as well..........her thoughts were still aflutter about within her mind, as even I was to have opened up my eyes, she still didn't showed any response at all.
What closely followed next was that her expression slowly turned gloomy, as if her spirit had been drained out, with her lips subconsciously trembling a little, yet not giving out any sort of noise at all.
Utterly despaired akin to like having fallen into an endless watery pit, being equally sunken within emotions of hopelessness.
When had that innocuously cute Ke Ling unveiled before such a despaired expression?
What exactly happened already?
Was there a problem with that sentence of mine?
Just at this moment, that icy cool hands of Xin Ran caressed onto my cheeks, giving me a shudder, causing me to hastily lift up my head to look at her with a confused expression.
She lowered her head and looked at me, and twitched her eyebrows towards that dumbfounded Ke Ling.
Afterwards, she unloosened her thighs which was clutching onto my neck, releasing my both hands as well, allowing my upper half to be able to freely move already.
She's letting me go comfort Ke Ling, right. Xin Ran..........she didn't express out that much of a bewilderment over to that appearance of Ke Ling.
As expected, she had long known about Ke Ling's true personality.
Perhaps it was just only me who wasn't aware about it..........aahhh, I felt more and more that myself who was their gege was really quite a failure.
And now, it's time to go salvage back my reputation of an elder brother!
Hence, I slowly propped up my torso..........recently I seemed to have been doing this certain gesture for quite an amount of times, with my back starting to ache a little from it already. Speaking of which, doesn't that meant that I was always being bizarrely pushed down recently? That didn't sound good at all...........
Cough, right now it's not the moment to be saying that, firstly I must make Ke Ling regain back to her senses.
”Ke Ling.”
I stretched out my hands and pressed onto her shoulders, softly calling out her name, and she upon hearing it shuddered her entire body, with her eyes restoring back its focus, as she slightly lifted up her head to look at me fearfully.
My heart really ached.........
She suddenly unveiled out a look of almost wanting to cry..........
”Gege........thinks that I've changed already?”
”.........”
Ah. Aahhh, so it's like that.
Ke Ling still didn't know that I had already knew about her other personality through her title. The Ke Ling in the past had left an innocuous, cute and active impression upon me, while concealing that dark side of hers up.
Hence, after I said 'you aren't like this last time', it made her think that her concealed personality had been exposed already, which was why she would be like a child which had their secret being gashed apart, being equally anxiously flustered.
In order to leave a good impression onto me, she usually would be displaying out her good side in front of me.
And I had indeed thought that Ke Ling was a well-behaved and innocent meimei, completely unaware of her other personality.
Wanting to adequately pamper my meimeis, not letting them feel sufferings..........those indeed sounded to be quite pleasant to the ear, but the moronic me hadn't even once understood about my meimei's true feelings.
Right now, the person who wronged Ke Ling wasn't anyone else but me, who was her gege!
However, it was due to her jealousy this time, which made her lose control, enacting onto gestures which was the complete contrary of her usual actions.
Afterwards, it was being exposed with just a sentence from me.
Thinking that my silence meant quiet consent, Ke Ling clutched onto her face.
”Gege..........you must have felt that Ke Ling had become a bad child already.........*sob*..........Ke Ling, is only..........”
Her voice then trembled. She clutched onto her face in order to prevent me from seeing her crying face, huh..........
That's right, Ke Ling had never cried right in front of me before..........she had always been all laughter and smiles; it was all for my sake..........
”Only, don't want to lose gege..........”
A watery liquid was being dripped onto my face with a 'pa ta pa ta' sound.
It flowed into my mouth, sourly.
It's Ke Ling's tears.
”I don't want gege to be snatched away by others!”
The unease which resulted from her envy made Ke Ling completely burst out.
”I like gege.........Ke Ling likes gege.........from a very long time ago, Ke Ling has fallen in love with gege already..........*sob*..........*sob sob*..........”
Ke Ling loosened her hands that was shielding her face, pulling onto my collars as she wailed, using a hoarse voice to exert out all of her strength onto squeezing out words of apology.
”I'm sorry, I'm sorry.........gege, please don't hate me.........Ke Ling, will be good.........please don't hate Ke Ling.........!”
Because her concealed personality had been exposed, hence she felt that I was probably hating her already, huh?
She therefore would thus be wrongfully bawling out, hoping that I would be able to forgive her.
Really..........wouldn't it be fine to just tell me about it sooner..........
”You're really foolish..........Ke Ling.”
Bitterly chuckling, I rubbed onto Ke Ling's head, afterwards pressed on the back of her head, causing her to lean onto my shoulders.
Ke Ling forcibly sniffed in her nose, as she hastily lifted up her head, saying.
”Gege, it's dirty!”
