may be.

She watched Lin Jiqiao walk into the dark corridor with a pillow in his arms. Before closing the door, she hesitated and said softly, "Good night, Lin."

Lin Jiqiao smiled and raised his hand: "Good night."

Lying on the bed, Xu Anyi picked up his phone, and it was one o'clock in the morning.

-Curiosity killed the cat.When you wake up, tell me about the kidnapping, ok?

The status bar above said "typing...", Xu Anyi stared at the screen, waking it up every time it went dark.

After half an hour, Lin Jiqiao sent a long message.

- In my third year in the United States, that is, when I was in middle school, there was a classmate in my class who was also Asian, and her mother was a lawyer, who offended the local gangsters (this is what I later myself information sought).Out of retaliation, they planned to kidnap that classmate, maybe in the eyes of foreigners, all Asians look the same, and I was the one who was taken away.Luckily, knowing the wrong person, they took advantage of the rainbow parade and quickly left me in the crowd, less than two hours in all.After that, Catherine taught me how to protect myself. She also contacted many survival experts and introduced me to them.All survival and escape devices in this apartment are designed by me.In a few days when I update the security system, I will add your permissions too.

Xu Anyi read it over and over again, and forgot to reply for a while.

Lin Jiqiao soon sent another message: Catherine asked me not to tell others about this, but I was advised to be honest with you, I hope you don't mind.

Xu: It's an honor.

Lin: Good night.

Xu: Good night.

That night, Xu Anyi's sleep was clear and vivid.

She dreamed that she was in a dark car with handcuffs on her hands.Numerous rainbow flags fluttered on both sides, the crowd was crowded and noisy, and the car was silent.She wanted to call for help from the police on both sides of the road, but when she tried her best to open the car window, it was pitch black outside.

The handcuffs turned into fangs and sharp claws, holding her tightly in her arms.

The crowd sneered one after another.

"You can't escape."

"You can't escape."

……

Xu Anyi woke up from the nightmare, she was startled by the fluffy thing in her arms, and then realized that she had placed Lin Jiqiao in the bear's arms on the bed.

But at that moment, she seemed to have returned to Las Vegas, because beside the pillow was the breath that had been kept in memory, and there was also a little furry head in her arms.

She also woke up suddenly that day, and only slightly moved, accidentally waking up the person in her arms.

Lin Jiqiao rubbed his neck twice, then arched his chest, leaned on her body and reached for the cup on the bedside table, "I'm so thirsty."

He didn't sleep much for two days and two nights, and his head still hurt like hell. By the time Xu Anyi realized it, Lin Jiqiao had already drank half of the glass of spirits on the cabinet, and asked vaguely, "Why does it taste so strange?"

"Because you're drinking vodka." Xu Anyi pressed the throbbing sun's blood, took out a bottle of pure water from the drawer and put it in her hand, "Drink this."

Lin Jiqiao hugged the water bottle and sat on the bed in a daze, "I think it's very strange."

She was a bit tongue-in-cheek, but she insisted on getting the words out.

"I've never been like this."

Xu Anyi touched the protruding bone points on her back with his fingertips, stroked her skin that was getting hotter and even hotter, and took a sip of the vodka that was only half left, "Believe me, I don't have any either."

When Xu Anyi was hesitating whether the two of them needed a good night's sleep, he put his head on her shoulder and let out a crisp and short belch. The fragrance of her hair perfectly covered the smell of the wine, "from the breadth of contact As far as you're concerned, you've surpassed everyone I've ever known except Catherine."

"What?" Xu Anyi continued to press the sun's acupoints, but the headache was pushed aside by some gradually rising emotions.

"If we spread out the surface of the skin we have touched in the past two days, I think it must be wider than the map of Azeroth."

"Um... Ai... what?"

Lin Jiqiao was riding on her lap, shaking her body unconsciously, "Either you are a succubus who cursed me, or..." She touched the glass with her teeth, and drank the vodka in one breath, "It is."

That glass of wine turned on Lin Jiqiao's switch, and she suddenly became enthusiastic and active. Although she wanted to stop the green offensive that proved that she had never had such experience, most of the time, she was quite cooperative.

She is what booze is to an alcoholic, what nicotine is to a smoker.

It is drinking poison to quench thirst, but it makes people sink willingly.

"I'm very happy. Thank you Catherine," she said abruptly towards the end, and then hummed, in a hoarse, drawn-out, melting voice, "Thank you."

"Thank you." Hearing the slight snoring in her arms, Xu Anyi kissed her forehead, and the words came out naturally, "I love you."

Chapter 42

Lin Jiqiao got up early in the morning to wash the rice and put it in the pot, then went back to the bedroom like sleepwalking, picked up the toothbrush and squeezed the toothpaste, and stared at the mirror of the cabinet in a daze.

The entire design of the automatic chuáng is in line with her requirements, except that she missed one point - it is too hard.

She seemed to be sandwiched between the steel plate and the concrete all night. No matter how hard she slept, she couldn't find a suitable position. After finally squinting for a while, the alarm clock rang.

Lin Jiqiao turned to the foot of the bed with a toothbrush in his mouth, and was about to pounce on it, when his half-opened eyes caught the bulge on the bed, finally awakening her mind.

There are people on the bed.

Human memory has a blind spot caused by inertia, and it is not uncommon for her to subconsciously forget unexpected events as soon as she enters a familiar territory, not to mention that she is still in a chaotic state of half-dream and half-awake.

Staring at the long black hair scattered on the pillow, Lin Jiqiao took three seconds to remember who was sleeping here, and then was nailed in place by this fact.

"... Gudu." Lin Jiqiao swallowed toothpaste, took a step back, the slippers didn't fully catch up with his feet, and fell back to the ground with a thud.

Xu Anyi sat up suddenly, holding her little bear in her arms.

The two looked at each other silently.Only the electric toothbrush hums.

Xu Anyi put the little bear back on the bed, and the quilt was lifted just like that.

Looking at the unobstructed scenery, Lin Jiqiao's throat twitched and he swallowed more toothpaste.

Xu Anyi looked down, and casually pulled the nightgown over his body, "Morning."

Lin Jiqiao opened her mouth, loosened her teeth, and splashed some foam before her eyes. She frantically picked up the unsatisfactory electric toothbrush, turned around and rushed to the bedroom, only thinking about the portrait of Jesus in Catherine's house covered in holy light.

"I didn't do it on purpose." The effect of orange-flavored toothpaste on refreshing the mind was unsatisfactory. Jesus sang a silent hymn amidst the rushing water, hovering and leaving slowly.Lin Jiqiao rinsed his mouth and whispered, "I forgot."

After folding the quilt, Xu Anyi went to the bathroom while holding her hair, and murmured vaguely, "Did you sleep well?"

Lin Jiqiao glanced at the glasses, his eye sockets were black and black, and he couldn't hide it, "The bed is too hard."

Xu Anyi pulled off the towel and handed it to her to wipe her face, "Go back to sleep after breakfast."

"..." Lin Jiqiao squinted at the window half blocked by the computer desk, she also planned to do so, but...

"You bring a new bed sheet later, and I'll change it for you." Xu Anyi took the initiative to say, "Yesterday was too late."

"No, no need." Lin Jiqiao stammered, "It was just changed."

"Yeah. I'm going to see Siqi."

Xu Anyi left the bedroom and closed the door behind him.Lin Jiqiao squeezed another centimeter of toothpaste into the toothbrush, sat down on the engineering chair, touched his bed, pushed the toothbrush without touching it, and counted the few wrinkles on the bed sheet.
