Tang Ning's mind went blank. His hair stood on end and his heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of his chest. He was completely shrouded in great fear.
Song Linsu's lips slowly curled up as he gave Tangning a strange smile.
"ah!!!"
Tangning couldn't help but scream, clutching the quilt with both hands and shrinking into the corner.
In his field of vision, Song Linsu, who was standing at the head of the bed, suddenly appeared on the bed where he had been. Song Linsu was lying straight on the bed opposite Tang Ning, staring at her with questioning eyes, as if everything that had just happened was Tang Ning's illusion.
Is it an illusion
Or was I just dreaming
Tang Ning grabbed his hair tightly, his chest heaving violently. He was thinking about what was going on when he suddenly heard a faint knock on the door outside the corridor.
It wasn't his dormitory door that was knocked.
It sounds more like it's from next door.
"Students in 302, are you all asleep?" A hoarse voice sounded in the silent night, with a slightly strange tone.
Tang Ning was stunned for a moment, remembering that someone in the group chat said that someone would come to check on her dorm room at night.
But checking the dormitories is one thing, but why do we have to knock on the door to ask everyone if they are asleep? Even those who are actually asleep cannot answer this question.
Just when Tang Ning was puzzled, the slight knock on the door gradually became louder, from "knock, knock, knock" to "dong, dong, dong".
"Students in 302, are you all really asleep?" the voice asked again.
Still no one answered.
"No, someone must be awake." The voice asked and answered itself: "I clearly heard someone screaming just now."
The moment Tang Ning heard this, his eyes widened. He stared at Song Linsu who was lying on the bed opposite him. The only light in the darkness was the flashlight beam swaying in the corridor. A gloomy light shone on Song Linsu's face. Under the strange light, Song Linsu's smile became more terrifying, like a ghost demanding his life, or perhaps, he was it.
"Boom, boom, boom."
The clear knock on the door sounded again, and this time, it was Tang Ning's dormitory!
"Students in 303, are you asleep?" the voice asked quietly.
Tang Ning's throat was so dry that he couldn't utter a single word. His chest was completely devoid of strength, only soreness, swelling, and weakness from being too frightened.
"Boom boom boom."
Tang Ning's body began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Boom boom, boom boom."
Every knock on the door seemed to hit Tangning's rapidly beating heart! His heart was so fast that it seemed to be about to jump out of his throat!
"Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!"
Tang Ning covered his mouth and nose tightly, tears streaming down from the corners of his eyes.
Fall asleep! Fall asleep! Fall asleep!!!
The loud noise that almost shattered Tang Ning's psychological defenses almost shattered him. He curled up on the bed and bit his palm hard with his teeth. Only the pain from his palm could give him a sense of life.
Why aren't you asleep yet?! Why aren't you asleep yet?! You'll die if you don't fall asleep!
You will die!
I will die!!
I'm gonna die soon!!!
The violent banging on the door suddenly stopped, and heavy footsteps sounded in the corridor again, but the sound gradually faded away, and it sounded like they were walking towards another dormitory.
Have you left
Tang Ning collapsed completely. After escaping death so suddenly, his mind went blank.
“Bang.”
Suddenly, in the dead silent dormitory, there was the sound of a water bottle rolling to the ground. The water bottle rolled on the ground, rolled to the corner of his bed, and stopped with a click.
In a night so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, the sudden appearance of the Aquarius was like a thunderous noise.
Tangning opened his eyes blankly and saw Song Linsu, who was lying on the bed opposite him, smiling brightly at him.
A blinding beam of light shone through the small window of the door and projected onto Tang Ning's blank face. There were dark blue marks under her beautiful, moist black eyes, making her look a little morbidly beautiful.
The red lips were slightly parted.
The slender neck was so white that it was dazzling, like a dying swan.
"Hehe, I heard a sound." The voice laughed, and the sound of keys shaking came from outside the door. "I knew you were not asleep! I'll come in now!"
The key went into the door lock.
It seemed to have pierced Tang Ning's heart, crushing Tang Ning's last bit of luck.
Tang Ning lay on the bed in a daze, and heard two footsteps sounding at the same time, one hurried and one steady.
Were there two footsteps, or was it one that stepped on the beat of his heart
Is he going to die
"Why is it you?" the shrill, thin voice asked in surprise.
Then Tangning heard Qi Yun's cold yet sweet voice, "I'm going to get up and go to the bathroom."
"Oh." The voice was full of disappointment.
The beam of light continued to shine around the dormitory, as if trying to find something.
"It's too bright." Qi Yun said coldly: "I'm going to sleep."
The beam of light went out unwillingly.
Squeak.
The door closed again and the footsteps continued to wander in the corridor.
Tang Ning lay exhausted on the bed. He didn't even have the strength to open his eyes. Even though his body was extremely tired, his brain was extremely excited because of fear.
He heard the sound of flushing in the toilet.
Then came the sound of Qi Yun walking out of the bathroom.
Qi Yun.
Is Qi Yun going back to bed to sleep
No, no
The being outside was still wandering in the corridor. What if Song Linsu made another noise and attracted the monster over? !
Tangning's mind was filled with these terrifying conjectures, and when Qi Yun turned to leave, Tangning's exhausted body suddenly burst out with the last bit of strength! He grabbed the corner of Qi Yun's clothes tightly!
He held on so tightly that he was afraid that Qi Yun would shake him off in the next second.
In the darkness, Tang Ning couldn't see Qi Yun's face clearly, but he was sure that Qi Yun turned his head. Looking at the face hidden by the thick black, Tang Ning's lips trembled slightly.
Qi Yun must think he is weird now.
Their relationship wasn't that close either.
What he was about to say next was too offensive.
But ah.
He really seemed to be dying.
Perhaps he will be the first player in the entire game who is killed not by ghosts but by his own fear and anxiety.
Tangning thought of this and tried hard to hold back his tears. He whispered quietly, humbly, and pleadingly, "Don't leave."
The air was silent, with only the sound of Tang Ning's disordered breathing remaining.
Qi Yun pulled out the corner of his clothes and turned to leave.
Tang Ning's palms suddenly felt empty, and her heart felt empty as well.
He left. He was alone again.
Why say again
It would be great if Mo Yunchu were here.
There is no need to be afraid of anything, just stay with Mo Yunchu.
Tang Ning was thinking about Mo Yunchu, but at the same time he hated himself for thinking about Mo Yunchu. Before his nose felt sore, he bit his lower lip hard, suppressed his tears, and covered his head with the quilt.
What should he do? He seemed to have been spoiled by Mo Yunchu, so even if he met someone who looked a little like Mo Yunchu, the spoiled child would run out and throw a tantrum, refusing to give in, and trying so shamefully to gain a little more favor.
But that person was not Mo Yunchu.
No one will ever protect him like Mo Yunchu did.
After realizing this, hot tears finally fell from her eyes. Tangning cried silently, her whole body trembling slightly, like a stray cat that couldn't find its home.
The bed suddenly sank.
A quilt and a pillow fell beside Tang Ning.
Tang Ning was stunned for a moment, and vaguely saw the outline of Qi Yun in the darkness. Qi Yun was very tall, and even though he couldn't see anything clearly, he felt an indescribable sense of oppression when he stood there.
Although Tang Ning had only met Qi Yun a few times, he could imagine what he looked like at the moment. He would probably look indifferent, abstinent, and distant as he lowered his eyes to examine him.
No, it shouldn't be described as scrutiny.
It was just a casual glance, but because his eyes were too cold, the person who saw them looked as if a scalpel had cut open the shell, revealing the soul inside, helpless and bewildered.
—Qi Yun actually came.
Tang Ning carefully slid herself into the bed. The bed in the dormitory was very narrow. Even if Tang Ning did her best to make up as much space as possible, it was still only enough for Qi Yun to lie down.
Qi Yun's shoulder touched Tang Ning's shoulder.
Qi Yun was like an iceberg, with a warm body temperature that was totally inconsistent with his temperament. On that hot night, the heat from his shoulders made Tang Ning's body tense up all of a sudden.
It's very hot.
Tang Ning was wearing short-sleeved pajamas, and unfortunately, Qi Yun was also wearing short-sleeved pajamas.
The moment their skin touched, Tang Ning felt as if an electric current passed through his shoulders. His skin was so delicate, so tender that it seemed to melt if rubbed. Tang Ning shrank his shoulders timidly and tried to squeeze himself towards the wall.
However, the young figure lying next to him was tall, with his limbs slightly stretched out, completely occupying the little space that Tang Ning had tried so hard to give up. Not only was it just this little distance, but the invisible body temperature and breath were also unscrupulously encroaching on Tang Ning's private area.
The sultry air made Qi Yun's faint fragrance intoxicating. All Tang Ning could smell was this faint aroma, and his body was unable to extricate itself from indulging in this breath.
The thin, immature body was pressed against the cold wall on one side, and against the warm skin on the other. In the small space where it was quiet enough that one could hear the other's breathing, Tang Ning frowned, worrying about whether he would be unable to sleep any more.
In this dense fragrance, Tang Ning turned over, with a thin blanket covering his body, outlining a beautiful curve. The line extended from the shoulders to the waist, reaching the bottom, and then suddenly rose as it extended to the hips.
A pale, slender hand appeared silently behind the waist.
From a very close distance, almost touching each other, he spread out his five fingers and measured Tang Ning's waist.
Tang Ning turned her back to Qi Yun without noticing anything.
The hand moved upwards little by little, along each vertebra, through a thin layer of cloth, controlling the delicate gap as thin as a cicada's wing, and finally stopped on the snow-white neck.
"Students, are you asleep?" A strange voice was faintly heard from a distance.
Tang Ning's scalp tingled and he bit his lower lip, trying hard not to make any sound.
How strange.
How can there be something unspeakable
With her forehead pressed against the cold wall and a blush on her ears, Tangning lowered her head in shame and tried to get rid of those messy thoughts, but her heart started beating uncontrollably.
"Boom, boom, boom."
The sound of my heartbeat overlapped with the faint knocking on the door in the corridor.
The long eyelashes couldn't help but tremble slightly.
A sickly red crept up onto the snow-white skin.
In the darkness, no one saw the five slender fingers slightly close together, making a shackle gesture—
Like catching a baby bird that has landed on a flowering tree.
