"The first one is my mother."

Shi Ling fanned his eyelashes slightly, and said slowly: "But Grandma is gone..."

Shen Xiao blurted out: "How did she die?"

After finishing speaking, I suddenly remembered that I asked her a question last time.

She refused to say.

Then he said again: "If you don't want to say it, don't say it, pretend I didn't ask."

Shi Ling buried his small face in the bowl and remained silent.

After Shi Ling finished eating the noodles, Shen Xiao got up, put away the bowls and chopsticks, and handed them to the servant outside the door.

When she turned around, she saw Shi Ling stepping on the floor with bare feet, standing in the middle of the room wearing loose pajamas, with the overhead light turned on, she could faintly see her slender body.

Shi Ling crossed his hands in front of him, hesitating for a moment.

"Do you...do you have a lot to ask me?"

"Yeah." Shen Xiao said lightly, "But you won't say it if you ask me, so don't force it."

He ordered: "The floor is cold, put on your shoes."

Shi Ling looked at him, seemingly hesitating to speak.

But she still turned around and obediently put on the slippers.

Shen Xiao said "good night", turned around and opened the door, and walked out.

After returning to his room, Shen Xiao reached out to take off his glasses, untied his tie, and walked into the bathroom.

He took a shower.

Unconsciously, Shen Muhan's words came back to his mind.

Don't get stuck in it...

He laughed.

stick it in?

Not really.

For Shi Ling, he felt like he was treating a particularly cute and weak animal.

What he felt for her was pity and distress.

Perhaps mixed with a little bit of goodwill.

But if you say you like something, that's not the case.

Even if Shi Ling appeared here now and threw himself into his arms, he would not feel any throbbing or panic.

After taking a bath, Shen Xiao felt a lot clearer in his mind.

Wrapped in a towel, he opened the bathroom door and walked out while wiping his hair.

After wiping it twice, Shen Xiao suddenly felt something was wrong.

He turned his head sharply.

I saw Shi Ling sitting on his bed with his knees hugged, still wearing the white pajamas.

At this moment, she opened her eyes wide and looked at him innocently.

Shen Xiao: ...

He paused, subconsciously pulled the towel tight and took a few steps back.

"You... why are you here?"

"I can't sleep, so I just want to come to you."

"...What are you looking for me for?"

Shen Xiao stood up slightly, picked up the glasses unnaturally, and put them on slowly.

Shi Ling looked at him.

Then he moved his body and patted the position next to him.

He motioned for Shen Xiao to sit up too.

Shen Xiao stood where he was, without moving.

After a while, Shi Ling looked at him eagerly, and then said softly, "Why don't you come over?"

Shen Xiao: ...

Shi Ling tilted his head and said softly: "You seem a little nervous."

Hearing this, Shen Xiao couldn't help but let out a cold snort.

"Ah."

nervous?

What a joke.

Why is he nervous?

Shen Xiao took a step towards the bed, and then sat down beside Shi Ling.

He calmly said: "If you have anything to say..."

The person next to him suddenly fell towards him.

A soft little hand caressed his bare chest, accompanied by a scent of medicine, Shi Ling threw himself into his arms.

Shen Xiao was defenseless.

Was thrown on the bed.

His mind went blank for a few seconds.

The little hand that was pressed against his skin seemed to squeeze his chest tightly.

He reached out and grabbed her hand on his chest.

"what are you doing?"

Shi Ling raised his head, looked at him innocently, and then frowned slightly.

He showed a slightly aggrieved expression.

"pain."

Shen Xiao loosened his hand.

After being imprisoned in his palm, Shi Ling immediately reached out and wrapped his arms around his waist tightly.

Lying in his arms.

Shen Xiao tensed slightly, staring at the ceiling.

Suddenly feel a little short of breath.

After a while, Shi Ling said softly: "Your heart is beating a little fast."

She put her ear against his heart and asked curiously.

"You have palpitations... do you have angina too?"

Shen Xiao: "...No."

He calmed down for a moment.

Then he said: "What are you doing? This time, are you planning to sing me a lullaby again?"

"……no."

Shi Ling leaned against his arms and sniffed: "I can't sleep alone... Also, I miss you."

Her tone was soft: "I miss you... I want to get closer to you, so I came to you."

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

"know."

Shi Ling nodded obediently, then raised his fair and soft face, and looked at him seriously.

"What do you want to know, you can ask, and I will answer you well."

Hearing this, Shen Xiao instantly calmed down.

He opened his mouth.

"Then tell me, how did your father and your uncle die?"

Hearing this, Shi Ling arched his head and said in a low voice, "You hug me, and I'll tell you."
