Chapter 486 - 487: Staying Up Late is Not Good
Will she and her older brother really let something happen tonight?
The real issue here is being alone in a room, um, no, actually in the same bed!
They are both adults and not so young anymore.
Her older brother is twenty-seven, she is twenty-four. They haven’t done certain things, but it’s not like they are clueless teenagers either.
They at least know what’s what.
They’re sitting so close to each other in the dark, with only the light from the television on, which is a bit, you know!
Although they each have a bit of blanket, and aren’t under the same cover, they are still rather close to each other!
Sometimes there’s a different kind of feeling when you’re with someone of the opposite sex, she can’t quite put into words what the feeling is, but it just makes her feel a bit restless and uneasy.
Finally, she mustered up the courage to glance at Di Mingzhe, intending to have a serious talk with him, but she discovered that Di Mingzhe had actually fallen asleep.
Crap! She had been mulling over this for half the day, and Di Mingzhe had actually fallen asleep, fallen asleep!!
At that moment, his head was leaning against the soft pillow at the head of the bed, his eyes peacefully closed, and his thick lashes cast a shadow over his eyelids.
His exquisitely handsome features were calm and steady, breathing was regular, he couldn’t be pretending, right?
Di Xiaxia observed him for a long time, and he showed no reaction at all.
Finally, Di Xiaxia hung her head in defeat. She fell asleep watching the news, he fell asleep watching cartoons. Truth be told, they really aren’t compatible!
However, it was very late. Her older brother must have been tired. After all, his work was all mentally draining tasks. Even an hour of his work might be more exhausting than three hours of someone else’s.
Di Xiaxia muted the television and lightly poked Di Mingzhe’s arm, whispering, "Brother, if you’re tired, lie down and sleep."
Di Mingzhe didn’t respond.
Di Xiaxia then no choice but to poke him again, and finally, woke him.
Di Mingzhe slightly opened his eyes, looking blurred and defenseless in his drowsiness, which dumbfounded Di Xiaxia.
He blinked his eyes and asked with a somewhat hoarse voice, "Is it over?"
"No," Di Xiaxia laughed, "But if you’re tired, lie down and sleep first."
"Mmhm." Di Mingzhe obediently nodded, lay down, and turned to Di Xiaxia, saying, "Turn off the TV. You should also rest early. Your foot has not fully recovered, it’s not good for a girl to stay up late."
His voice was deep and refined, especially seductive in the dark room.
"Mmhm." Di Xiaxia unexpectedly obediently nodded her head, turned off the TV, and lay down as well.
After turning off the TV, the room sank into complete darkness. There was only a faint green light from the air conditioner, prominent in the dimness.
After lying down, Di Xiaxia conscientiously moved a little away, keeping a safe distance from Di Mingzhe.
Darkness sometimes frightens people, but at times it provides a certain comfort as well. The air conditioning in the room was just right. If it weren’t for the awkward circumstance of both of them sharing the same bed, Di Xiaxia would actually find Di Mingzhe’s bed quite comfortable.
But it doesn’t matter now, since they ended up sleeping together in this bed. What else can she do?
However, Di Xiaxia was still a bit upset inside. She really couldn’t understand Di Mingzhe; he was being so passive-aggressive!
This is such a simple thing! Why can’t he just make his intentions towards her clear?
