Sugar Jar [Rebirth]

Xi Xin nestled in the innermost part of the bed, huddled into a small ball, looking extremely wronged.

When he sleeps, he easily feels insecure. He likes to wrap the quilt in one place, then surround the whole person, hide his head in the quilt, and hold the quilt tightly with his hands.

It's just that she's on Shi Chen's bed right now, but she's not as happy as she is in her own bed.

He wasn't used to the strange atmosphere around him, so he subconsciously moved inside.

Originally Xi Xin asked to sleep outside, but Shi Chen failed to persuade him, so he agreed, but seeing his tossing around, Shi Chen, who was worried that he would fall to the ground when he fell asleep, hurriedly moved lightly. Picked up Xi Xin, dropped him, and placed him against the wall.

As soon as she changed positions, Xi Xin frowned uncomfortably, then dragged the quilt, and slowly moved inside again.

After the strange atmosphere nearby was not so strong, his brows were gradually relaxed, and he continued to sleep deeply.

Only in the middle of the night, Xi Xin woke up.

After waking up, she found herself in Shi Chen's arms. The man hugged her tightly, and when the warm breath came, Xi Xin turned her head uncomfortably.

His eyes were a little tangled, and his small face was slightly wrinkled, as if he was thinking about whether he should push him away.Xi Xin doesn't like being close to others, it's too hot.

He looked at the Second Young Master aggrievedly, trying to wake him up with his eyes, but it was useless.

Xi Xin sighed, stretched out her small arms and gently tried to take Shi Chen's hand away, but failed.

He turned to stare at Shi Chen's hand seriously, as if he was thinking about a very serious matter, and then stretched out his hand to break off his fingers, but it still didn't work.

Next time, I absolutely can't sleep with the second young master again, he hugged him so tightly, what's the fun with the two of them sticking together, it's still so hot.Xi Xin thought unhappily.

Since she couldn't break free, Xi Xin stopped struggling and started staring at the top of the bed, counting the sheep bit by bit.

Feeling the body of the person hugging her tremble, Xi Xin looked over suspiciously, but found nothing abnormal, and under the weak light, she didn't see anything.

He sighed deeply.

Then, as if he couldn't bear it anymore, Shi Chen let out a hearty laugh, which was especially obvious in the silent night.

Hearing the laughter, Xi Xin widened her eyes, looked at him in disbelief, and instantly understood something.

"So you're already awake!" he protested.

Shi Chen quickly denied: "No, no, I just woke up." He sleeps very lightly and is easily woken up. When he woke up, he saw Xi Xin hesitating whether to wake him up. He couldn't bear to disturb him for a while, so he Still pretending to be asleep.

"I don't believe you!" The little book boy got angry and wanted to get out of his arms.

Shi Chen dared not let go, and said: "Be careful not to fall off the bed."

Xi Xin sniffled, turned her head, and said in a low voice: "If you want to fall, you will fall, I'm inside." He lowered his voice, feeling aggrieved and squeezed to the side, not wanting to get so close to Shi Chen.

Shi Chen heard Su Suinian's voice, and suddenly felt a little helpless, "Okay, okay, I will fall if I fall."

But at the same time, he grabbed Xi Xin who was trying to retreat.

Seeing that this method didn't work, Xi Xin tugged on his skirt, and said softly, "Don't hug me so tightly, it's so hot."

Before Shi Chen could respond, Xi Xin added another sentence: "You lied to me just now, and I'm still angry, let go quickly."

His voice is soft and waxy, and he tries to be serious every time he speaks the truth, but because of his soft tone, the whole sentence sounds more like a baby.

Shi Chen subconsciously let go of his hand obediently, and when he came back to his senses and tried to catch Xi Xin again, he had already hid in a corner.

Xi Xin pointed to the side seriously, and stretched out her hand to draw a line in the middle of the bed, "Here, half of each person. Don't come here, it's very hot."

Shi Chen pretended not to understand, and deliberately said: "Where? It's so dark, I can't see."

"In short, one person sleeps half, no snatching!" Xi Xin emphasized in a serious tone.

"No grab, no grab." Shi Chen also responded with a serious tone.

Xi Xin felt relieved, curled up again, put her face on the pillow, and planned to continue sleeping.

After a quarter of an hour, the surroundings became quiet again.

Shi Chen opened his eyes and looked at the top of his head, and suddenly asked softly: "Xi Xin, are you asleep?"

No one responded, but the small figure next to him moved slightly.

Shi Chen held back his smile and asked, "Did you really sleep?"

"I'm asleep, don't bother me." Xi Xin said in a muffled voice under the quilt.

It's a pity that I slept too much today, and now he feels that he still has some energy. Xi Xin closed his eyes and silently recited the homework taught by his master in the morning.

It's just that the more you recite, the harder it is to fall asleep.

Xi Xin turned over, the person who was originally on the right side suddenly turned to the left side.

He opened his eyes, his dark pupils turned around, and then he saw that the oil lamp in the outer room was still burning, and the faint light came in through the gauze cover.

Xi Xin stretched out her hand, gestured forward, and quietly joined the light.

Naturally, the small movements next to him could not be hidden from Shi Chen's eyes. Although the room was dark, but because it was quiet, any movement could be heard very clearly.

"Can't sleep?" Shi Chen asked.

Xi Xin was silent for a while, nodded lightly, and then realized that Shi Chen couldn't see, so she said softly, "I just slept for a while."

So now I can't continue to fall asleep for a while.

"Then, how about I sing a ballad for you, okay?" He heard from Xi Xin that when he couldn't sleep before, his mother used to coax him to sleep like this.

Hearing this sentence, Xi Xin was a little interested. He asked curiously, "Do you know how to sing?"

"When grandma was alive, she often hummed songs to me." She was a very good person, but it was a pity that she suffered a lot from marrying her grandfather. Her whole life was dedicated to the Bohou Mansion.

As if sensing Shi Chen's depression, Xi Xin was quiet for a moment, then tilted her head slightly, stretched her hand in Shi Chen's direction, and gently patted his head.

"It's not sad." He comforted softly.

Just like his mother usually comforts him, he stroked Shi Chen's head again and again.

Shi Chen was startled for a moment, then the corners of his mouth softened, and he couldn't help but move upwards.

"Well, not sad."

The touch on the forehead disappeared, and a soft little hand held him. Under the dim light, only Xi Xin was left looking at his soft and bright eyes in Shi Chen's eyes.

He said: "My mother said that the relatives who died will turn into stars and guard us in the sky."

Shi Chen couldn't help stretching out his hand, and wrapped him in his arms again, even rolling him up with the quilt.

But this time, Xi Xin didn't struggle, just smiled with lowered eyebrows.

"Since you comforted me just now, as a thank you, I'll sing you a ballad." Shi Chen said.

He patted Xi Xin on the back and hummed a song softly, his voice was actually different from the gentleness in the past.
