Chapter 59: Secretly, isn’t it a bit too much?
“Hmm… You saw it too, Yu… she might come barging in at midnight…” Chen Yuan explained, glancing at Cu, who was looking down and not saying anything.
“Hmm… it really is a bit of a hassle, if you don’t want to, it’s fine, no problem.”
“I’m willing!” Cu’s mind went blank, and she quickly replied as she understood in an instant.
This is a rare opportunity!
Realizing she’d gotten a bit too excited, she pouted and whispered, “Uh… I can…”
Fearing that Chen Yuan might back out, she added, “Then… I’ll go get a blanket…”
Her room was smaller, and making a bed on the floor would be inconvenient.
After saying that, she restrained her excitement and quickly headed toward the door…
“Ah, no need, you can come over tomorrow.” Chen Yuan raised a hand to stop her.
He didn’t want her to go through that trouble at night.
Chen Yuan: “She already came over today, she shouldn’t come again.”
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Cu stopped in her tracks, hesitating for a moment.
Turning back, she said seriously, “Then… what if she… comes again?”
A second time?
“Um… that…”
It shouldn’t be the case…
Although Chen Yuan thought this way, he also had to consider the situation Cu mentioned…
What if she really does come?
Just like tonight, he never expected her to invade the bed at midnight…
“I’ll go get a blanket…”
“Alright… then I’ll tidy up a bit…”
“Okay.” Cu nodded and quickened her pace out of the room…
…
When Cu returned to her room, she cast a meaningful glance at the door of the opposite room.
She didn’t know how to express it; should she even thank her for giving her this opportunity?
But… she took the teacher’s first kiss!
Absolutely not thanking her; it was simply despicable!
Hmph!
As long as I’m here, she can’t touch the teacher again!
Teacher… hehehe, I can sleep in the same room as the teacher now…
We’ve moved a step further…
But… when can we… sleep together…
Actually… if we’re both in the same room, I could take advantage of the teacher while he’s asleep…
If I go a bit overboard… it should be fine, right…
As long as the teacher doesn’t find out…
Ah, Cu! What are you thinking…
Calm down! Don’t overthink!
Let’s… talk about it later…
Returning to her room, she took the pillow and blanket from the bed.
Burying her head in the pillow, she pretended that her previous thoughts weren’t hers…
Upon exiting, she glanced at the large stuffed rabbit by the bed.
Should I take this…
Does the teacher have the Big Black Bear over there…
Forget it, it’s fine to hug the teacher…
…
Since it was summer, there wasn’t much on Chen Yuan’s bed; no heavy blankets weighing more than ten pounds, just a light one to cover the stomach.
Then there were tissues, his phone, the pillow, clothes, and a large stuffed toy.
He directly took a new cooling mat out from the damaged wardrobe and casually spread it on the floor, then lay down.
Very simple.
So cool~
By the time Cu came back, the bed was already stripped bare.
“Teacher?”
Locking the door, Cu softly called out.
Chen Yuan propped himself up from the floor, just his head showing, yawning: “I’m here, let’s sleep quickly, it’s late.”
His drowsiness had returned.
“Hmm… okay.”
Cu’s lips couldn’t help but curl up, and she suddenly felt a bit nervous…
What a close distance, even when she was in Nikes Kingdom, she had never been this intimate with the teacher…
She took off her slippers and sat on the bed.
After arranging the pillows and covering herself, she lay down, staring at the ceiling…
Sleeping straight…
It seemed like something was missing… (the Big Black Bear…)
But now she was way too nervous…
Just turning her head, she could see Chen Yuan on the ground, eyes closed.
Breathing evenly…
So close…
It seemed he sensed her gaze, Chen Yuan frowned uncomfortably, suddenly opened his eyes, and his big black pupils met hers on the bed.
“What are you looking at? Why aren’t you sleeping?” Faced with Cu, he completely dropped his guard and didn’t feel scared at all.
For some reason, perhaps mainly because her gaze wasn’t as terrifying as Yu’s…
Her eyes were light blue, pure like an angel; even waking up suddenly at midnight with her staring at him wouldn’t be scary…
Instead, he might reach out and pat her head.
Cu’s heart skipped a beat; she felt flustered but forced herself to act calm.
She was experienced in this aspect.
Her two legs nervously curled together, she whispered, “Hmm… it’s a bit unfamiliar.”
“Hmm? Then… shall I tell you a story?” Chen Yuan closed his eyes again with a smile.
Back when they were in Nikes Kingdom, he would tell her stories from this world, though they were somewhat childish, the effects were quite good.
They were all classic tales, versions she hadn’t heard before.
Of course, whether in the past or now, for a girl, such stories were naturally childish.
But… for Cu…
Not at all; as long as it was the teacher telling her, she simply loved it…
“Okay.”
Cu adjusted her position, completely turning her body towards Chen Yuan, then shifted to the edge of the bed.
This way, it would be easier to see him, as if they were sleeping on the same bed.
Then… right now, the teacher was like putting a baby to sleep…
And she was that baby…
“Well then… once upon a time, there was a little girl who sold matches~”
“I’ve heard this one.” Cu said.
She remembered every little story he had told her, even recording them while in Nikes Kingdom, compiling them into a book that circulated among the people.
“Ah? Have I told you this before?” It had been a long time, and Chen Yuan couldn’t remember clearly.
“Hmm.” Cu replied softly.
“Well then… once upon a time, there was a Big Bad Wolf~”
“I’ve heard this one too.”
“Ah? Did I tell you that many before?”
“Hmm.”
“Well… once upon a time, there was a temple on the mountain, have I told you this one?”
“No, you haven’t.”
“There were three monks in the temple, and they went to fetch water to drink…”
….
Soon, as Chen Yuan was telling the story, he not only failed to put Cu to sleep but ended up falling asleep himself…
“Teacher? Teacher?”
Hearing the silence, Cu tentatively called out softly.
There was no response.
He really fell asleep.
Immediately, Cu turned over to look at Chen Yuan, her light blue eyes glowing in the night…
She continued to speak softly.
“Teacher…”
“Are you asleep…”
Still no response.
Her lips lifted slightly, and then she leaned out from the edge of the bed, moving closer to Chen Yuan…
