Chapter 71: Late night, Abrupt awakening (1/2)
TL: flarewk
After leaving that bizarre antique shop, we didn't window shop anymore, and simply headed home.
Dinner was consumed at home, and since the time was already 6pm plus, I made a comparatively hassle-free dish, curry. And of course, the secondary layer of reason was that Xin Ran loved to eat curry, and it's considered to be a reward for her as well.
”That's great, gege, you've finally chosen a present.”
”Mm mm, and it's all due to you too, Xin Ran. If it's not for your help, I also won't be able to find such a shop like that.”
”Ke Ling thinks that the sensation that shop gives isn't that pleasant.........”
”Well, it's indeed a little strange, but I'm guessing we won't be having any more opportunities to be returning there in the future already.”
After browsing for an entire day today, I too felt rather fatigued, and wanted to go sleep when it's not even 9pm yet.
Afterwards, when I greeted my two meimeis, the both of them gave me an extremely surprising response in return.
”Gege, are you going to sleep already? Goodnight, have sweet dreams~”
”Goodnight.”
”Eh? You two aren't going to sleep together with me today?”
I originally thought that my meimeis who had already made themselves completely clear to me would definitely be sticking onto me every single day, wanting to sleep together with me, but I didn't expect that it's just the opposite to what I've imagined.
Of course, that's a good thing to me, but Xin Ran had provided quite a bit of assistance today, not only giving me a massage, but also aided withholding back Ke Ling as well, plus even more so helped me on successfully purchasing a gift to boot.
No matter how it was being put, it would be required of me to give a bit of praises and incentives to compensate Xin Ran.
If I'm to hug her to sleep, she'll probably be quite delighted, and it's due to that sort of thinking which was why it turned out to be my side here proactively mentioning about it. It's definitely not due to any of my personal agenda! Absolutely not!
”Today, Ke Ling wants to sleep together with Xin Ran-jie, so you'll be sleeping alone, gege! Heehee~”
Ke Ling made a face towards me, while pulling onto Xin Ran's arms while pleasedly chuckling.
”Mm..........”
Though Xin Ran unveiled out an expression of slight reluctance, she still nodded her head nonetheless.
Really.........I don't even know what to say already, at this sort of time I could only laugh out bitterly.
Sigh, you two suddenly becoming like that, I being your elder brother would feel lonely..........
Eeeh, I by right should be feeling happy.........
Tch, I'm having mixed feelings.........
It must be because I'm too tired, which even caused my brain to be not that right already. I'd better hurry up and go sleep then.
Since my two meimeis decided to lovingly sleep together, I too shall not intervene into the good relationship between them sisters then.
After I've directly returned back to my room and changed into my pajamas, I then prepared to head to sleep.
Mm.........locking up the room's doors and closing up the windows afterwards, I still switched off the lights after thinking for awhile.
It's just me alone sleeping tonight, so it should be fine having the lights off. Plus, I'm able to have a more comfortable sleep with the lights out as well.
Lying on the bed, I instantly felt my aching back suddenly obtaining onto a support point, with my body becoming way more relieved as well.
Tomorrow..........is Lian Bing's birthday already.
I don't know what kind of a birthday party it'll be, but it should be that sort of standing banquet, I guess.........
Then, would it be better for me to put on a formal attire.........
This magatama, would she like it?
I feel like wanting to see her a little.........
Aahh, really, when was it that I've become so hypocritical already.........
Anyway, I'm able to see her tomorrow, isn't it?
I'll hand over this present to her then, afterwards saying it to her personally, that I like her.
Heh heh, I wonder what sort of expression she would be making afterwards.........
I've started to become a little eager already.
Well then, I'll quietly await the arrival of the 4th of April then.........
.........An Jun Cheng in the midst of sleeping..........

*Whroom whrooom*——
*Whroom whrooom*——
While being soundly asleep, I distinctly heard onto vibration sounds.........though the sounds it made wasn't loud, it kept ringing nonstop instead..........
*Whroom whrooom*——*Whroom whrooom*——
So noisy.........
I shouldn't have any alarm being set at all.........
*Whroom whrooom*——
”Argh! It's annoying me to death already!”
With the outcome that I still couldn't endure against those incessant noises, sitting upright onto the bed.
My phone? Where's my phone?
Dazedly searching about for half a day, I then finally located my phone.
Out of habit, I slid the slider wanting to switch off my phone, with the result that I've discovered my phone's vibration wasn't due to its alarm.
It's those vibration sounds when one receives a text message.
Even the good temperamental me would be uncontrollably scratching my head while grumbling out.
”Isn't it only just 1 am.........who is it exactly.........”
I merely felt my eyeballs about to pop out from their sockets already, them feeling unimaginably sourish, coupling up with the fact that today marks the third continuous night of me not having a proper sleep.
While having my mental state being drained out, my mood too became terrible to the limits.
Ahh, please, can I just have a good night's sleep..........
I was out shopping for an entire day yesterday, you know.........just let me have a proper rest, as after the Qing Ming holidays, I wouldn't have any more opportunities to be lazily sleeping already.
Really.........who was it that would be sending over those messages?
Xue Qing? Or was it Lian Bing?
It's only them both who would be sending me text messages already. And Xue Li-xiaojie as well, but she definitely wouldn't be disturbing me while I'm sleeping.
Looking for me in the middle of the night, was there something urgent already?
Although my mood was a little displeased due to being forcibly woken up in the middle of the night, I still opened up my received messages to take a quick glance, for fear of missing out any important notifications.
With the result that it's a stranger's.........no wait, this number wasn't even able to be viewed at all!
What sort of advanced technology was being utilized already? It actually didn't even display out its phone number!
Plus, for all of the text messages, the contents were entirely the same, only a [You there?], those two words, along with a question mark.
Deleted!
