CH 31
At this time, that man seemed to somewhat scrutinisingly raise his head, looking towards the direction of her bedroom…..
Ran Muxun’s body stiffened.
But she knew, at this moment she could not hide, if she hid, it would prove that her eyes had recovered a long time ago……
And that during this time she had just been deceiving him.
If this happened, with Si Jinze’s personality, one can well imagine what he would do!
So, with a dull look in her eyes, she remained standing there, feeling around to carefully close the window, then feeling around once again to go back to bed, trying hard to hypnotise herself to sleep, but perhaps the rain was too heavy, the crash of thunder too loud, and with her heart also being in turmoil, she couldn’t fall asleep at all.
Si Jinze……would he come up to find her, wanting to determine whether or not she had seen that scene from just before?
Heart extremely unsettled, she closed her eyes, but her ears perked up, trying hard, through the sounds of rain and thunder, to ascertain what had been happening……
There was the sound of an engine starting, the car seemed to be driving away, Si Jinze should have left?
Ran Muxun’s tense nerves finally relaxed, but the next second, they tightened once again.
She could hear footsteps.
Familiar footsteps.
Swallowing her saliva, Ran Muxun didn’t even dare to twitch, and then, she heard the sound of her bedroom door opening……
Si Jinze came in.
Clearly he had seen her standing by the window from downstairs just before, so he knew that a few minutes ago she was actually still awake, and also knew that she was actually just pretending to be asleep, nevertheless, Si Jinze directly sat next to her.
Ran Muxun’s entire body started trembling!
He, is testing her!! He has definitely started doubting whether or not her eyes had long already recovered!!
So, she cannot pretend not to know that he had come here…..
Ran Muxun exuded cold sweat, quick wittedly opening her eyes in a plan of desperation1, looking like she had just been woken up by a noise, “Who?!”
There was panic in her voice.

“It’s me.”
“Is it…….Jinze gege? Or…….Jinzhi?” In the midst of the darkness, her eyes were utterly blank, still pretending to be unable to see a thing.
Si Jinze’s eyes didn’t blink at all while they stared at her, not letting go of the slightest change on her face, “Who do you wish I was?”
Of course, this cannot be answered with Si Jinzhi……
Ran Muxun lowered her eyelashes…….
If she said that, she would definitely anger him, and all her previous efforts would be in vain.
So she said: “Jinze gege?”
Outside the window, there was a sudden clap of thunder!
She was so frightened, she cried out in alarm: “Jinze gege, there’s thunder, it’s so scary……”
She succeeded in making Si Jinze’s eyes contain a trace of warmth once again.
Si Jinze recalled their childhood, at that time the two of them would be left at home together by their parents who were busy with their careers, every time there was a thunderstorm, she would always fearfully run to find him like this, not willing to let him leave. The younger him was actually also afraid, but, with her by his side, it was like he wasn’t scared at all……and instead he started to comfort and coax her……
It was only because of her that he became brave, became outstanding…….
These memories gradually warmed Si Jinze’s heart.
He sighed, and lightly patted her back, coaxing her as if she was back to being that seven year old girl in his memories.
“It’s okay, I’m here with you.”
But Ran Muxun let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the crisis has temporarily lifted.
“Jinze gege, it’s like when we were young…….can you also, like when you were young, sing me a lullaby, please?”
He was silent for a while, “Okay.”
It had already been a long time since he had last sang, or rather, it had been a long time since she no longer needed him…….
He couldn’t remember some of the lyrics clearly, and even sang some parts a little out of tune, however, she earnestly listened, listening and listening, until she yawned, and exactly like she was younger, docilely fell asleep…….
