Ye Linlang's scream was not quiet and soon woke up the boy in the next room who was still awake.
What happened to Ye Linlang? !
Jiang Qiran frowned and ran towards the room where Ye Linlang was without thinking!
"Linlang, are you okay?"
Before Jiang Qiran could see clearly, he saw a slender figure rushing towards his arms as if frightened.
The girl held him tightly with her thin arms, her porcelain-white face was almost pale with fear, and she was even trembling, obviously scared to the extreme.
"Qiran! There's... there's a spider!"
When Ye Linlang said the word "spider", her whole body trembled even more violently, and she subconsciously shrank a little tighter into Jiang Qiran's arms.
God knows, she has been afraid of spiders, mice, snakes and the like since she was a child. Anyway, Ye Linlang is scared to death of any creepy-looking small animals, including those without spines.
Although the place she used to live in in the small deserted village was drafty, at least because someone cleaned it all year round, there were no spider silk, mice or anything like that, okay? !
…
Jiang Qiran lowered his head and saw the girl's panicked face, but his body stiffened uncomfortably.
It seems... Ye Linlang was going to sleep, so she was wearing nothing but a thin cotton pajamas.
She hugged him so tightly, perhaps because she was frightened and completely unaware of it. The girl's bulging body pressed against his body, as if unconsciously challenging Jiang Qiran's nerves.
Jiang Qiran's usually cool and clear face suddenly turned red. His throat moved slightly, and after taking a deep breath, he immediately wanted to push Ye Linlang away.
"Linlang, it's okay, it's just a spider, I'll help you kill it, don't worry so much."
Ye Linlang seemed to realize that Jiang Qiran wanted to push her away, so she timidly hugged Jiang Qiran even tighter.
"I... I'm scared."
"That spider just now! It fell from the beam and hit my quilt! It was so scary!"
Ye Linlang buried her face in Jiang Qiran's shoulder, her hands tightly holding Jiang Qiran's strong arms. At this time, only when she hugged him did she feel at ease.
Jiang Qiran paused when he heard this. Ye Linlang looked really scared, and there was even a hint of crying in her voice.
And what on earth am I still thinking about!
Jiang Qiran lowered his head to glance at Ye Linlang's misty eyes. With red at the corners of her eyes, she looked so frail and pitiful.
Seeing Ye Linlang like this, Jiang Qiran couldn't help but curse himself inwardly. His thoughts just now were really...
Jiang Qiran took a deep breath and finally pushed Ye Linlang away from him without any doubt. If he didn't do this, he felt that he would lose his concentration.
"Okay, don't be afraid. I'm here. Are you sure the spider fell on the quilt just now?"
Ye Linlang nodded with a crying voice.
"Yes, but I don't know where it is now. It may still be on the quilt or something."
She sniffed her red nose a little embarrassedly. It was so embarrassing that she was so grown up and yet she was still afraid of spiders.
But she really couldn't control the fear that was rising in her heart. It was too scary. She always felt that the spider would crawl along the quilt to her face in the next moment!
If Jiang Qiran hadn’t come over, Ye Linlang felt like she was going crazy!
…
Jiang Qiran nodded and immediately walked towards the single bed which was about 1.7 meters tall.
After all, he had camped with the troops before, so he had seen not only spiders but even blood-sucking leeches.
Jiang Qiran was a skilled and courageous man. He immediately picked up the damp quilt and shook it vigorously.
Forehead…
However, the spider that Ye Linlang mentioned was not seen.
Jiang Qiran frowned slightly and immediately scanned the surrounding ground.
Still no sign of any spiders.
Maybe when I was talking to Ye Linlang, the spider got wind of it and ran away? !
…
"Didn't you find it?"
Ye Linlang couldn't find Jiang Qiran anywhere, and her slender body couldn't help but tremble.
If she didn’t find the spider, Ye Linlang felt that she wouldn’t be able to sleep peacefully tonight!
Jiang Qiran shook his head.
“No.”
Ye Linlang bit her white teeth slightly, she was really scared!
Is she going to sleep in the same room with a spider?!
Isn't that like tying a time bomb in your room? !
Ye Linlang was extremely frightened, and without thinking, she walked towards Jiang Qiran, reached out to grab Jiang Qiran's arm, and begged with her big eyes blinking.
"Qiran... Can I sleep with you? I'm really scared."
Jiang Qiran was much taller than Ye Linlang. He was looking down from above and happened to see the scenery inside Ye Linlang's loose cotton pajamas at a glance.
There was nothing beneath the porcelain white collarbone.
As expected... not wearing any.
Jiang Qiran's eyelids twitched heavily. He didn't dare to take a closer look at what was inside. His body had already reacted subconsciously.
The tips of the boy's ears turned red, and he suddenly pulled Ye Linlang's arm away and took a step back.
Ye Linlang was also shocked when she saw Jiang Qiran like this.
What happened to Jiang Qiran
Ye Linlang bit her red lips. She never thought that one day Jiang Qiran would see her so scared, as if she was a monster
"You do not want it?"
Ye Linlang complained to Jiang Qiran in a muffled voice.
"Didn't we share a bed when it thundered when I was staying at your house that day? It's no big deal. I won't do anything to you anyway."
When Jiang Qiran heard Ye Linlang's "innocent" words, his heart was burning with anxiety.
Ye Linlang would not do anything to him, but he was afraid of what he would do to Ye Linlang!
Besides, he couldn't possibly tell Ye Linlang about these things!
Seeing Jiang Qiran pursing his lips tightly with a dark look on his face, Ye Linlang mistakenly thought that he was really reluctant. Ye Linlang snorted, feeling a little aggrieved.
"Forget it. If you don't want to, I won't force you. Okay, okay, go away. At worst, I'll get bit by the spider."
As Ye Linlang spoke, she pushed Jiang Qiran hard out of the temporary guest room where she was staying.
…
Jiang Qiran felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he saw Ye Linlang's childish look.
"I never said I wouldn't let you live with me. Come on, stop thinking about it and come with me."
He quickly grabbed Ye Linlang's hand, with a helpless look on his face, which was actually self-mockery, but Ye Linlang thought that Jiang Qiran had reluctantly succumbed to her coercion.
She raised her head proudly, and immediately happily took Jiang Qiran to the next room...
Jiang Qiran was speechless. Never mind. Perhaps ignorance was a good thing. He could endure it, but he couldn't scare her.
